Nodding slowly, an evil glint in her eye, Mira got the directions to the place and thanked the lady kindly before placing Kain on the floor by the back door. Kain grabbed her arm just before she left, his eyes full of pain and worry as he saw her, the scars all down her arms and legs, her lithe, muscular form, and one little dagger to protect her. Mira smiled, bending down beside him and patting his arm comfortingly.
"Don't worry, Kain, I'll be fine. Just focus on protecting yourself and these people. I'll try to distract them so you can escape with these people." Mira smiled.
"Be careful." Kain whispered, caressing her cheek.
Mira leaned into his hand for a second before grabbing his hand, kissing it, letting go, and running out of the room with her dagger in her hands. She burst out of the front doors, looked around at the military personal with a smirk on her face, reached for a pouch on her belt, and pulled out a smoke bomb. Throwing it to the ground Mira ran toward the end of the street and turned the corner where she saw a mansion at the end of the street. Once Mira got to the door she kicked it in and ran into the house.
"David Misacara!" Mira screamed, looking down the long, door less hallway leading to some stairs where banging was heard. "Dr. Misacara! Please, I need help! My partner was shot!"
A man's face looked down the stairs before disappearing again. "Go away! Dr. Misacara doesn't live here!"
Stomping her foot and tossing her hair behind her shoulder Mira glared up the stairs. "Get down here now before I come up there and drag you back to my partner!"
The man chuckled, walking down the stairs. His ear length black hair swayed and his purple eyes flashed with amusement. "You're just like your mother, Miriana. You look like her too."
"Wh-who are you?" Mira's eyes widened as she stared at the man. "T-that's not my name."
The man smiled, opening his arms. "Welcome home... my child."
Gasping Mira backed up into the wall beside the door and she looked away from the man in front of her. Her father. Dr. David Misacara.
David's smile wavered and his arms dropped to his sides as he saw the hatred in her eyes and the dagger she was holding tightly in her hand. Mira clenched her teeth together and swallowed the hatred that threatened to engulf her. Kain needed help and David was the only one able to offer that help. The thought of Kain in agony wrenched her heart painfully.
"Please help my partner, Dr. Misacara." Mira hissed.
David nodded and Mira ran out of the door with him following closely behind. Mira slowed as they came to the corner near the building she had left Kain in with the other people. Police searched the area, calling her name and yelling for Kain. A look of disgust crossed Mira's face as she snuck through the bushes toward the entrance of the building they were heading to. But they froze as a man walked only a few feet away.
"Sergeant Major Fuery!" one man called out worriedly, his orange hair swaying in the breeze and the cigarette in his mouth trembling. The man's blue eyes were wild as he searched for Kain. "Little buddy!"
David looked at Mira questioningly as people yelled to find her. Mira just smiled and shrugged before grabbing his arm and leading on again. They got to the entrance when the man called for Kain again, his voice rising in panic as he searched the bushes behind them. When the orange haired man reached into the bushes beside her Mira grabbed his hand and pulled him roughly into the bushes with a scowl on her face.
"Look, buddy, I don't know who you are but I'm trying to help Kain right now! Noelle what's-her-face shot him in the leg a little bit ago! So shut up and follow me to the door or else I'll cut your lips off! Got it?" Mira snapped in a hushed tone, glaring at the orange haired man.
The man nodded quietly and followed Mira and David in the door and down the halls to the back door where Kain sat with the mother, her child and a few others that smiled at Mira as they saw her. Kain also smiled and reached for her, but stopped when he saw the other man with her and the doctor.
"Havoc?" Kain whispered.
"Fuery?" the orange haired man gasped.
Mira laughed and bent down next to Kain as David looked at his leg. Kain wrapped his arm around Mira's shoulders and pulled her close so she was leaning on his shoulder. With a sigh Mira snuggled closer to Kain, feeling his warmth.
"Havoc what are you doing here?" Kain asked.
"Jean is here to save his best friend!" the other one replied indignantly.
"Jean? Interesting. Welcome to the club of the unwanted." Mira grinned, holding her hand out to Jean. "I'm Mira."
Kain smiled. "She saved my life, Havoc... you can trust her. I promise."
David chuckled and poked Kain's leg carefully, slowly moving closer to the bullet wound. Jean sighed and grabbed Mira's hand, making her snicker at his cautiousness. Then there was a loud bang at the front of the building, making everyone freeze and stare at the hallway leading to the front.
"Leave! They're here for me! Jean, take everyone to a safe place! Go!" Mira practically begged as she squeezed David's hand.
Kain gasped, reaching for Mira frantically. "Bu-"
Mira looked at Jean pleadingly. "Please!"
Jean sighed, lowering his head in defeat. "Don't worry... I will."
"No!" Kain yelled. "Mira! Please, no!"
David looked crushed as he held her hand. "Mira, please... I just got you back... don't leave me."
Mira smiled brokenheartedly and whispered to him. "You can let go now, Daddy. You can let go. Your little girl is ready to do this on my own. It's gonna be a little bit scary, but I want you to know, I'll be okay now, Daddy, you can let go." Her small song brought tears to David's eyes.
Nodding slowly David let go of her hand with tears in his eyes. "Okay. I'll let go."
"I'll distract them! When I scream go through the back door!" Mira called over her shoulder as she ran down the hall toward the entrance.
"MIRA, DON'T DO IT! PLEASE COME BACK! DON'T GO!" Kain screeched as Jean picked him up.
Trying to ignoring him Mira ran down the hall, feeling her hair whip her tear stricken face as she turned a corner without looking back at the others, afraid that she would actually listen to Kain if she saw his face. Peering cautiously into the next room Mira saw that it was crawling with military and alchemists with guns. An eerie calm filled her as she took a deep breath and ran for the door, ignoring the tears streaming down her face.
"Mira!" Kain's shriek was muffled, but she could just hear him.
"Here! Lookie what I have!" Mira called, pulling out her dagger and, while running past a military man, cut across his abdomen and grabbed his gun. "I've got a neat looking gun! And the bullets are all in it!"
She could hear Kylie yelling at her as she ran out of the door and shot several men, always missing fatal areas. Kylie's screams became more frequent as Mira got farther from the building and the military.
"Mira!" Kylie shouted, chasing Mira. "I will kill you! Give up now and I'll make it swift and painless!"
Mira laughed, running faster. "Never! You know better than to as me to give up, Kylie! Unless you've gotten stupid while I was away!"
2 Days Later
Mir could hear the military not far behind her as she ran aimlessly away from the military, just like before. Kain's screams for her to go back were still fresh in her mind as she ran breathlessly. She hadn't had any sleep or food in three days and she felt like she was going to fall. Up ahead was a cliff and the sound of a river was close by. She skidded to a stop just before she fell and looked down. It was probably a fifty foot drop into a deep river.
"Mira!" Kylie screamed as she saw her so close to the edge. "Mira, don't do it! Just come over here and we'll take you to jail! Don't jump, please!"
"Yeah, and you're my best friend!" Mira retorted sarcastically. "You don't care if I do fall off the edge!" Just before she jumped she looked at Kylie with determination and saw tears and pain in her old friend's eyes. "Goodbye... old friend."
"MIRA!" David ran out of the bushes and reached for her.
"You can let go now, Daddy. You can let go. Your little girl is ready to do this on my own. It's gonna be a little bit scary, but I want you to know, I'll be okay now, Daddy, you can let go." Mira sang with a smile as she fell off the edge.
Wind rushed by her as she plummeted into the river. It was cold, ice cold. Her body was pushed back and forth in the water, hitting rocks and the bottom of the river. Adrenaline pulsed through her veins as she felt her lungs were going to burst. Her head broke the surface and she took a deep gulp of air, feeling chilled to the bone. A roar was heard from in front of Mira and she looked ahead to see the water drop abruptly a few feet away from her.
Mira scrambled to swim away from the water fall, but failed and fell over the edge. "No! No! NO!"
"MIRA!" the voices of Kain, Jean, Kylie, and David were filled with torment as she landed in the water with a slap.
Everything started blurring as Mira sunk to the bottom of the river and closed her eyes in defeat. It was all over, after thirteen years of running away she was defeated. Blackness blocked her vision as she went unconsious at the river bed.
