Chapter three: the Link
Who does this guy think he is? And what was he doing threatening Rosette
"Oh great, just great could this get any worse my sister is dating a priest, my best friend is a girly-girl and now I'm being kidnapped by a guy that looks like an Oopma-Loompa" Rosette moaned pointing at the strange boy
"Hey I would watch your mouth missy, or are you forgetting the one who is holding a very sharp blade in his hand" the boy exclaimed
"Oh great not only are you kidnapping me but you are threatening me" Rosette exclaimed putting her hands on her hips while giving the boy a go on a dare ya look.
The boy sighed, and put his sword back in its scabbard.
"Look I'm sorry and, no, I'm not kidnapping you, in fact I'm doing this to save you" the boy explained
"To save me, Huh, yeah right" Rosette snorted not believing a word this boy was saying.
"You just don't get it do you?" the boy exclaimed "You were the one that put this on yourself if you hadn't opened the package you wouldn't have to come with me and I wouldn't have to play baby sitters"
"Oh so this is my fault is it, well what was it doing on my bed in the first place?" Rosette asked raising an eyebrow
Rosette had made it perfectly clear she didn't like this boy
The boy sighed
"I have been searching for that troublesome watch for a long time under the order of my mistress, I once had the watch and sealed it in the shape of a parcel and let it go…"
"Go? Why did you let it go?" Rosette interrupted
"Let me finish, I had no choice I was in a battle with the same thing that is now stalking you and so I was losing so I had to let it go, lucky the seal protected it from being sensed by the monster until you decided to open it" the boy explained
Rosette was totally taken back by what she had just heard, it didn't make any sense and did he just say something was stalking her?
"Hold it, you mean this thing is stalking me but why?" Rosette asked in confusion
The boy nodded
"It is stalking you due to the golden link you have made with the watch now the monster needs you to make the watch work" The boy explained
"Huh? But I can't remember making any link" Rosette protested
"Oh really?" the boy said coldly lowing his head so his eyes went all shady
Just then a memory flooded into rosette's mind, the time when she first found the watch and that sharp pain that went through her hand could that be it?
"B…But how could the monster tell?" Rosette asked
"Look at your hand" the boy said
Rosette did just that and to her alarm she noticed the same pattern that was on the watched was now what seemed to be scared in to her hand, she let go a gasp.
"That scare will grow all over you body while draining your soul in the process, now do you see why you have to come with me" the boy said coldly
Panic gripped Rosette, as she felt a lump in her throat, her heart started beating fast as she began to fell cold all over, "W…What does he mean drain my soul? Am I going to die?" she thought to herself
"What can I do Oopma-Loompa" Rosette asked the boy
The boy crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes
"For starters I'm not a Oopma-Loompa, my name is Chrno and secondly there is one thing that can stop this from happening and my mistress knows how, but tell me are you prepared to go through with it" Chrno asked in his dark tone pointing at rosette
Rosette gulped, as she felt sweat form on her head, she didn't like the tone Chrno used but she nodded anyway.
Nothing can be worse then getting your soul drained…right?
