Scratching and Clawing

CH 1

(Hong Kong x Reader)

"IT'S BEHIND YOU!" I heard Leon yell as I jumped under a over turned car.

"I've got your back!" I shot a few bullets out towards the moving targets.

"THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH!" I put my gun into my back pocket and ran over to Leon.

"That was a pretty good run." I smiled to him and started to walk towards the large inner walls of the practice grounds.

"You did a pretty good too, but you were lagging a lot near the end. If it were real you would've died." I glared daggers at him as he smirked while turning to leave.

"WHATEVER LOSER!" I yelled back at him, he just laughed.

"(F/n) you should try and be more relaxed, Leon can be cold to new people." I looked to my friend Mai, who was Leon's older sister.

"Sure, whatever; I'll give him one more week." Leon and I had been assigned partners for our annual medicine run.

"Thanks (f/n)! You're the best! I bet that you two could end up being great friends if you try harder." She smiled at me while patting my head.

I sighed and we walked through the gates towards the girls living courters.

"So tell me, who did you get as your partner for the annual run?" I nonchalantly asked.

"Kiku." She got her calm, collected, brother…lucky.

"I can't help but be sorry about having to deal with Leon…he can be very um 'emotionally detached' but he seems to show more emotion with you." She gave me an awkward smile and a thumbs up.

"Hahaha yeah I guess so, I'll try my very best to get along with him!" I could feel the fire in my eyes from my sheer determination.

"What are you gits talking about?" We turned our heads to see the 'queen of England.'

"You're majesty." We both did a horrible British accent and a small curtsey.

"Hey! Don't make me curse you!" She pointed a finger at us and we started to laugh at her.

"Just tell me what's up! Am I your friend or not!" She pouted as we settled down.

"Yeah we're friends! There aren't enough of us anyway so we can't loss anyone." She nodded and adjusted her glasses.

"If you must know we were talking about next weeks mission." Mai spoke up.

"Oh…..well um." Alice was dumbfounded. "Who are you're partners?

"I got Kiku!" I glared at the happy Taiwanese.

"I got Leon…" I sighed.

"You should be happy! I got the burger eater!" I smiled; at least I didn't have Alfred. I mean he was nice and all but his obsession with American food scared me.

"Besides Leon's not that bad." If you didn't count the lack of emotion or kindness towards specifically Yong Soo and I….

"Whatever…..on to more interesting topics like what's for dinner?" They looked at me funny.

"What?! I'm hungry, training can tire someone out." They shook their heads walking into the dorms without me.

"Whatever!" I started to walk to the cafeteria when the emergency sirens went off.

I turned my attention to the outterwalls of the grounds.

"Idiot! What are you doing? Run!" I looked to my side to see Leon running at me.

"Here! Take this and follow me!" He grabbed my hand and handed me my training riffle without stopping.

"We're going to have to start the mission earlier." I nodded obediently as we ran over to one of the hidden exits leading us to the dead lands.

"ANYONE WITH A WEAPON OVER THE AGE OF FITHTEEN AND UNDER THE AGE OF THIRTY PLEASE MOVE OUT! EVERYONE ELSE FIND A PLACE TO HIDE!" The large sirens blared out our leaders words giving us instructions to follow.

"Stop staring off into space we have to go." Leon pushed me through the small doorway and I was out.

I was free.

I've never been out of the walls.

The sky was tinted a violent red and the ground we were standing on was a bleak gray.

"Leon shouldn't we wait for everyone else?" I was debating on weather to run back inside or go on and see what my partner wanted to do.

"No, it's every man for himself. The sad truth is that everyone in there without a weapon is going to be killed." I sighed and followed him.

I knew that my friends would be safe because of their expertise in weaponry, but what of the families?

"Lets go (f/n) I don't want to be killed." I nodded mutely as he dragged me off towards what looked like an abounded building.

"Lets stay here for the night, try blocking out the doors and windows while I search for something to eat." I grabbed a few pieces of furniture/debris and moved them against the doors and windows.

"This is crazy, I don't think I'm ready for this." I looked out of one of the windows I hadn't closed up yet to see them, I turned away and looked for some more debris.

After a few more minutes I had closed up just about any entrances that someone could take and waited for Leon to return.

'What if he was killed?'

'What if he left me here to die?'

'What if he couldn't find any food?'

This is all that I could think about, I mean really what if he had taken all the food and left me behind.

No. That's not Leon; even if he could be cold sometimes he wasn't that cold.

I had been thinking for longer then I thought and had passed out from the day's activities.

(F/N) you're not dead are you?" I didn't want to get up yet.

"I guess you are." I could feel myself being lifted up without my consent.

My eyes widened.

"W-WHAT THE HELL!?" I shook out of my captor's hands and ran over to the wall.

"Leon! What are you doing!?" I glared at the Asian man.

"I asked if you were dead and you didn't answer so I was going to throw you outside with your kind." He smirked at my horrified face before going to his side.

"What's that?" I glanced to his arms to see a lot of cans.

"Food, what does it look like?" He threw me a can of beans.

"Thanks I guess?" He nodded and started eating his portion.

"So um Leon…what do you suggest we do until dawn?" I was curious he seemed to know what he was doing, almost like this was planned.

"We will stay here and then move towards the ocean where there are most likely less of them." Ok that makes since.

"Do you want to regroup with everyone else before we go? I'm sure that most of them can't be that far from us right now." He shook his head.

"The more of us means that we need bigger space and resources." He was right again.

If we had more people that would make it harder to move along as well as finding places to hide out in.

"But there could be a plus to having more people." I was trying to reason with him. More people could make things easier in some aspects.

"I don't see any pluses to having more then two people." I couldn't read his face as he thought harder on the subject.

"But, having more labor could help us in the long run. It's settled we will try and recruit more people tomorrow when the hoards die down." I smiled before hugging him.

"What are you doing?" He looked flushed, whatching such an emotion come from him didn't seem natural.

"I'm thanking you!" I got off of him and turned back to my beans.

"Whatever." He turned his face slightly before eating again.

End of chapter

I decided to write a Hong Kong series.

He looked like an interesting character to write about and it didn't look like he was very popular so I decided to write a series about him.

Whoever can guess what they are running from first gets anything they want.

Anything.

(Within my power! lol)

Chapter two should be up soon, so stay tuned! (Hey that rhymed! hahaha)

Hasta La Pasta
