A/N: Hello! Sorry for wait! I wrote this two days ago, but yesterday I was at Grandma's house and the day before I had a bad head ache and mom wouldn't let me on computer because of that. So...
Chapter 3
"Can I Go On?"
Kurogane and Fai stood quietly in the door way, watching in horror. It was the worst thing that could have happened. The King knew where they were coming from and when, and they were waiting. "Kurogane-" Fai said under his breath in hope that only his friend had heard him.
Kurogane quickly grabbed Fai's arm to pull him away from the open doorway. The two listened silently as Fei Wang spoke to the rest of their group, who had been taken down the moment they entered the room. Strangely human looking robots stood around them, armed and ready to fire upon the first moving thing. "well... Well..." Fei maliciously smiled as he walked around Kurogane's bloody, beaten father. He summoned another one of the machines over to stand over the man. "These are automatas, impressed? Our most dangerous crime circle around, are taken down by a few merely robots." He mocked them while continuing to talk. "You thought you could take down the King of the World! How ignorant! You are all fools! And that's how you will,end, as fools!" He waved at the automata standing over Kurogane's father.
The two tried to remain silent as the automata let out a shot. Fai struggled to restrain his friend, but couldn't control Kurogane's screams. "DAD! YOU BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU!" He ran into the chamber with Ginryu in hand as he slashed violently at the murderous king. It wasn't two minutes before one of the automatas was sent after him. The machine whipped at the tall man with a barrage of kicks, knocking his only weapon across the room. With a moment of hesitation, Kurogane smashed the automata's right arm against the nearest object, the floor.
Fai watch in fear over the brawl, not know whether to run in or run away. He had never been the one who liked to fight, but the moment he saw how much danger his friend was in, he panicked. He grabbed the nearest blunt object and was about to run in when he froze in his tracks he he saw Kurogane standing over the destroyed robot.
Kurogane tossed the scrap metal aside as he salvaged his sword from the other side of the room and proceeded to the strangely calm king. "How... How did you know!" He slammed Fei Wang to the wall without hesitation. His face showed both rage and malicious intent toward the evil being in front of him. He was ready to cut him down without mercy.
"How did I know when and where your precious friends were coming in?" Fei grinned evilly at the man who had him pinned. It wasn't difficult. My step-daughter can see futures in dreams. She's so innocent, not knowing that telling me these things would get others hurt. Let alone destroy the one crime circle capable of taking me from power." He dragged out a dagger from out of his pocket and ran it through Kurogane's arm, making him release his grip.
He grimaced in pain as the king removed the knife and knocked him back. Not noticing what was behind him, armed and ready, Kurogane did not remove his gaze from Fei Wang Reed. Fai's eyes widened in fear, unable to fight his unmoving body. The sound of a gun cocking echoed through the room, and before he could realize it, Fai jumped out into the room.
"KUROGANE!" Fai sprang out in front if his friend.
"*BANG*"
The shot rang out through the entire palace, as an unsettling silence came across the room. Kurogane gaped at the sight if his collapsed friend, sprawled out on the floor. Sadness and fury melted together as he clinched his fists and turn to the king. He wanted to kill him. He wanted to destroy that evil man once and for all, but realizing the state Fai was in, he grabbed him and ran.
Fei Wang cursed at the escaping duo. "Damn! The older one was supposed to die, that's what Sakura saw in her dream! Does this mean things will change?" He slammed down his fists in protest as he turned to the many automatas around him. "Track them down and kill them, I want neither of them alive!"
*-Outside-*
Kurogane ran for dear life as he carried Fai from the palace. The large building behind them seemed to disappear every moment they fled. Then why did the base continue to become father away from them, even though it was right in front of them.
"K-kuro-g-gane..." The younger started as the two were escaping. "I-I won't... M-make it..." Kurogane glared at the man he was holding so dearly. "SHUT UP! I WON'T LET YOU DIE!" He cried at the blonde, "When we get back, you'll get treated and..." Fai gave him a tired smile, "T-the f-future has been... changed..." He gasped between words, "Promise- me... W-when the- t-time comes... Y-you'll take- him down... f-for me..."
Fai reached his shaking hand up to Kurogane's cheek. Kurogane watched as it slumped to his side, and as the rest of Fai's body became limp. Kurogane's face flooded with tears*, something he had promised never to do. He held Fai's lifeless body close as he watched the turquoise of his eyes fade away.
Kurogane returned to the tattered building, with only his black jacket he had given to Fai to wear, in his blood-stained hands. Everything was quiet except the sound of the automata's searching outside. Everyone could tell when Fai wasn't there.
Everyone.
*-END CHAPTER 3-*
A/N: EH? Isn't that what you're thinking right now? Yep...
"HOW CAN HE BECOME CLOSE TO FAI IF HE'S NO LONGER HERE?"
Heh... I didn't say Fai... I said "Fai".
*And I did too...
