Chapter 10: Bonds
P.O.V. [Name]
I looked at Neo and she nodded. We had what we thought was important. If we leave now then we could be at one of the local towns by tomorrow.
That'd give us more than enough time to get away from here. "Ready?" She asked looking at me. I nodded when she asked this. We then got what we had and started to walk down the halls.
Neo put up an illusion so that people couldn't see what we were carrying. As we were walking I saw Murcury. "There you two are. Don't forget that we have a mission tommrow," he said looking at me.
"Of course," I said looking at him. He then walked past us and I walked a few steps before turning around. "Hey Murcury have you seen . . . " I began turning around.
However when I turned around I saw that Murcury was gone. Must have had something important to do. I then turned around and started to walk again.
"What were you going to ask him?" Neo asked looking at me.
"It doesn't matter. Let's go before someone comes to our room and sees some of our stuff is missing," I said looking at her. She sighed hearing this and looked at me.
"Alright well when you're ready to tell me I'll be here ready to listen," she said looking at me. I smiled hearing this and looked at her.
"I know you will," I said with a smile. We then continued to walk down the halls. When we reached the entrance we opened the door and left the building.
As we were walking I sighed. "If I may ask where are the two of you going?" I heard a familiar voice say behind us.
When I turned around I saw Cinder looking at us. She was the one person we didn't want to run into right now. "We're just going for a walk," I said looking at her.
It's a good thing Neo is putting up this illusion otherwise we'd probably be in a really bad possession right now. "Well if that's the case please continue," she said looking at us.
I smiled hearing this and we turned around and continued to walk. I then heard the sound of something behind us and turned to see a large amount of fire coming towards us. It then hit and shattered the illusion and Cinder looked at us.
"Too bad the two of you aren't just going for a walk," she said looking at us. When she said this we put down our stuff and looked at her. How'd she figure it out? We haven't told anyone about our plans.
She sighed seeing this and gathered fire in both of her hands. "That's to bad really. The two of you were some of my strongest pieces. It's going to be hard finding someone who can replace the two of you," she said looking at us.
She then started to throw some fire at us. "You know you probably would have gotten away with leaving to. But Emerald heard you're plan and told me. You two should really make sure no one's around next time you try something like this," she said as one of the fireballs hit close to my feet sending me into the air.
"Well that is assuming you two actually survive this encounter," she said looking at us. When I landed on the ground she threw some more fire and Neo blocked it with her umbrella.
Cinder looked at us and smiled. "While I am losing two of my best members the bounty I can get from the two of you should be more than enough to last me a while," she said looking at us.
She then spread her arms and a circle of fire surrounded us. She then smiled and began to walk towards us. "Now let's continue," she said looking at us.
She once again started to throw fire at us and we once again started to dodge her attacks. I tried to run towards her but when I did she threw a fireball towards me and forced me back.
She then smiled and several fireballs started to appear above her. They were then sent in all directions. Neo used her umbrella to block what came her way but I was left having to dodge what came towards me.
A fireball got a little to close to me and the explosion sent me into the air. While I was in the air I saw Cinder look at me with a smile and send a fireball towards me. Seeing this I tried to guard my body the best I could and waited for the fire to hit.
When it did it sent me inti a nearby building and Neo ran towards me. Cinder then started to walk towards us with a smile. "Look at the cute couple. Funny I rarely see the two of you apart. Now the two of you are going to die together. It's only fitting I suppose," she said looking at us.
I then heard something click and soon something hit Cinder sending her away just a bit. When I looked to where the shot had come from I saw my uncle standing there. "Sorry Cinder but believe it or not I care more for my family than I do for money," he said looking at her.
"I should have seen this coming. Guess I'll be short three members now," She said looking at us.
"You two hurry up and leave," Roman said looking at us.
"What about you?" I asked looking at him.
"Don't worry I still have a few tricks up my sleeves," he said looking at me. I looked at him a bit unsure. However he then looked at me smiled. When he did his eyes turned red and a black fog started to gather around him.
I was shocked to see this and he smiled. "What? Did you really think you got this from your fathers side of the family?" He asked looking at me. I smiled seeing this and got up.
"Thanks and be careful," I said looking at him. He nodded as we ran past him. I hope he'll be alright.
