Sorry I haven't written in a while. I was at camp, and it was awesome! This chapter is really short, but I have had writers block for a while so this is all I could come up with. Thank you for all your input everyone and to Kyu-chan and The Senile Ra: Good idea, but It wouldn't have worked with my ending. Maybe you could write one that ends like that. Also, to everyone now, when you review my stories please don't be anonymous because I like to reply to reviews. The theme song for an anime called Clannad (awesome anime) helped me with this chapter. I hope you like the chapter! Please review.
They were almost there. Fresh air started to hit her face as they raced upwards. Nothing was stopping her this time. That's what she thought, anyway. That hope quickly ended when she saw what was waiting for her. She screamed at Aurora to turn around but it was too late. The bat tried in vain to flip back as the rat grabbed her wing and pulled them in. For once she regretted ditching her guards.
She whipped out a dagger that she had brought in case there really were an emergency going on. But she knew it wouldn't be enough. The rat towered over her. He was covered in dirt and mud and had a crazy look in his eyes. He reminded her a bit of the Bane before he died. She jabbed and dodged but she had to protect Aurora too, he had ripped her wing and she had gone unconscious. But she was no match for this rat. Which was why she was suspicious. He could have killed her by now. Why hadn't he? He was holding back.
He was getting frustrated. She could tell as his motions got jerkier and more out of control. But soon he grazed her arm with a claw and she collapsed. A deep gash went from her shoulder to her elbow. She could only do one thing now. She let out the loudest, longest, highest scream she could manage, hoping with all her heart that Gregor could hear her.
Fanfiction is being dumb so instead of a line between pov's this is what you get...
Gregory looked at his watch for the tenth time. It was a quarter after seven! Where was she? He had a bad feeling. Maybe she hadn't gotten the note and that was all but he wasn't so sure. He had to check.
As he reached for the rock he hesitated. What if something happened and he got stuck down there again? No doubt his father would be murdered for letting him anywhere near the entrance. But he had a horrible feeling something had gone wrong.
Guilt telling him to stop, he pushed the rock over and dropped in. He didn't hear anything at first but then there was a yell. It sounded familiar too.
He grinned from ear to ear thinking it was Luxa coming towards him but then came the scream. He stood there, stunned, as the scream went on and on, finally stopping with a loud thud.
"Luxa…" He whispered. "Luxa!" He was sprinting now. She was in trouble and it was his fault. He couldn't just face the fact he might leave her. No, he had to force her up here and now she was in trouble. He saw a glimpse of gray fur as he tried to run over the uneven turf even faster. Just as he was about to catch up he tripped, falling unconscious with the image of a rat carrying two limp figures burned into his mind.
