Here's chapter 3 of Black Rose! Please enjoy! :D

Surprisingly, they didn't take me to the Noah's room, like I thought, but to my room.

They shoved me in and Giriko smirked, "Noah will be here any minute."

When they left and locked the door, I started pacing, trying to think of a way to escape. I looked around the room and stopped at my window. I looked outside it, and then looked down. The castle, I call it this because it's so huge, stopped at a ledge about 20 feet above a small lake. This doesn't include the length from my second story window, so maybe about 30, 40 feet? I wonder if I could jump that, and land into the lake without breaking my neck?

If I jump it, I could make it into the lake and be home free. If I somehow have some trouble on the way down… I might die. I stared outside for another moment, and finally decided it was worth it. I was about ready to open the window, when I couldn't. It was nailed shut.

"Damn it." I breathed.

I was about to look for something to break it when I heard the door unlocking. I got away from the window and just stood in the middle of my room. Noah, Gopher, Giriko, and Justin came in.

"How dare you do this!" Gopher was about to punch me when Noah stopped him.

"Trust me Gopher, you'll be able to do what you want with her in a minute."

He put his hand down and now was speaking to me, "Answer me this Kuroi, why would you do such a thing to my important piece of my collection?" he asked innocently.

"If your blind eyes haven't noticed, I fucking hate, HATE, you and everyone here. I hate everything you do. I even hate the fact that you're able to breathe." I snarled, if I was going to die, I'm letting everything out.

"Aww, and I thought you loved it here." I rolled my eyes at him. "But I treated all my living possessions like that. What made this one so different?" he asked quite amused.

"…" I didn't know how to answer.

I had seen others like Kid, but something about his case made me snap. Was I just too afraid then?

When I hadn't answered, he continued, "Tell me. What made Kid s-o different?"

"I don't know." I answered honestly. 'I just couldn't stay on the sidelines.'

"Ah, it doesn't matter. You're gonna die either way. I'm just puzzled at why you did this. I gave you everything you needed. I didn't even kill you when you were just absolutely useless after your precious weapon died." I suppressed a wince. "I took you in after your parents' death. A little obedience would've been a good pay-"

"My parents' death was your damn fault!" I hissed interrupting him.

"Now, now let us not draw conclusions that aren't correct. You're parents weren't strong enough to complete it and, frankly, weren't good enough at anything. They were never going to help in making me "everything"." He smiled.

I dislike my parents for forcing me here, but still I couldn't take the fact that he was talking about them that way.

Gopher looked like he was going to have a mental breakdown for me talking like this to his beloved pain-in-the-ass master.

"Shut the Hell up Noah. You know nothing! All the fricken pain I've been through because of you! As far as I know, all you've done for me is made my life a living Hell! You think you're going to become "everything". But really you're just nothing! Nothing but an evil, cold, merciless person!" I yelled.

"Oh, Kuro, I will become "everything" and when I do everybody will see how powerful I am and bow down to me. It's just a shame you won't be one of them."

He glanced at Giriko, Gopher, and Justin and emotionlessly said, "Kill her. She's of no use to me anymore anyway."

"Finally!" Gopher exclaimed as Noah shut the door behind him.

"Got it." Justin said.

"Ah, this is going to be fun. You're going to regret the day you betrayed him." Smirked Giriko.

I started to back away, and looked at the window in my peripheral vision. Giriko came at me, using his chainsaw chains that formed at his limbs to fight. I dodged his attack but still got a gash from the blades on my leg. I winced.

"There's more where that came from!" he laughed.

There's no way in hell I'm gonna get killed by them. Without hesitating I grabbed a lamp from behind me and threw it at the window making the window, and lamp, shatter. Before the trio knew what was going on, I limped quickly toward it, placed my foot on the windowsill and lunged forward.

I could feel my stomach drop from the start of falling, but something caught onto my ankle, making me slam into the side of the wall. I gained my composure and looked up at what was holding me.

Gopher.


End Of Chapter 3


I know it's a bit short, but I decided to stop there. I will try and update as soon as tomorrow since I'm already working on chapter 5.

Plus, I probably won't be able to work on any other chapters this weekend since I'm going to an anime convention this weekend (I'm cosplaying as Shinigami-sama xD). So I decided to update another chapter tomorrow to make up for it. :D

I would like to thank everyone who's read, favorited, and/or reviewed this. You guys are what keep me going!
