Chapter One
"This isn't over"
She muttered, her tiny hands were clenched into fists and she kept her eyes on the ground, so that he would not see the different emotions that afflicted her face all at the same time. She was not like him, she knew that just by looking at him. He was so mature all together, so in control and yet so relaxed at the same time. He didn't seem afflicted by what he just happened. He had killed a man.
There she was sitting on the edge of the road, when this guy showed up out of no where. At first he had been friendly, asking her if she knew where her daddy was, and if she could take him to her. But when she answered that she did not know, and that she wasn't allowed to talk to strange men, he became slightly angry with her.
Alice being alice, had no idea why he was acting the way he did, she was just a small town girl, that was brought up a little by over protectively.
Later on she would find out that her father thought it was best that way. It was bad enough people were after him, but going after his family was out of the question.
The sounds of footstepped died away, and slowly she allowed herself to look up. The man to whom they had belonged too, did not turn around.
He just stood there, emotionless. A frown appeared on her tiny face. How could he be so cool? She didn't get this man at all, and yet at the same time she saw right through him. Was that even possible?
"Yes, Alice, it is. Go back to school. You don't belong to te same world as me. You should forget about me." Well this sure sounded familiar. where had he used those words again? Oh yeah, now he remember, with the Rider kid. Alex, yes of course, how could he forget? "It's best you did" he muttered, his words fading on the wind. Alice never the words he had spoken, but she did caught a glimps of those distinctive blue eyes.
The stranger had taken her without warning, throwing her over his shoulder, telling her to keep quiet. Of course, she didn't. She couldn't She did was any frightened girl would have done, she screamed bloody murder. Those hard eyes... Suddenly she found herself staring right into the intense blue eyes of her rescuer. Where he had come from she didn't know, but he was like an angel, coming to her aid. A peculiar looking angel, but she never had considered herself normal anyway, so why should he be?
"I'll never forget you" A bitter smile formed on his lips once he had heard her utter the words, but his back was once again to her. He began to walk.
Alice knew this was it, there was no stopping him from leaving her now. She was save. There was nothing what she could say that would keep him there.
Why did she want that anyway? She didn't even know the man, they had just met. So many emotions, she did not understand. Perhaps never would...
Though Alice knew one thing for sure, he was a good man, this stranger. One with a heart of gold, at least, for the ones closest to him.
She had been lucky, she realised.
The struggle that followed, after she had been rescued, was one to never forget. It was like the two men had know each other, but could the world really be that small? Words were being yelled in a foreign tongue, fists flew through the air, and struck both of the men. Blood flowed freely, and in the end a big bang finished it all.
She should have been afraid once she had seen a glint of metal in the sunlight, but for some reason she was not. And come the end, when one of the men lay death in a pool of his own blood, she simply sent out a silent prayer to God.
Never did she panic...
And now, she would never see him again. Never know who this mysterious man had been. This all would appear to have been a dream, or a nightmare, depending on which way you looked at it. But she would never forget those eyes, those cold stone blue eyes, as he quickly dissappeared out of her life.
"That's your choice."
