Chapter 14

Natsume's POV

I'm getting tired of this war. I will end it. Soon.

I quickly got a ticket to Japan.

This problem is going too far already.

I know PUPPIES' hideout. My security has been as tight as a sandwich. My information is as updated as modern technology, and that's how I've been keeping tabs on PUPPIES.

I went on my way to the airport with haste.

A few hours has passed, and I can now see the lands of Japan. As soon as I landed my bodyguards fetched me. I dismissed them after we arrived to my apartment. My apartment would be safer than going to my own house. I'm sure they have already sent out spies.

I got my bag. I went to my closet and picked up my guns and knives.

With haste, I went to the hideout. It was a commercial building with an underground secret.

I entered the building without even bothering to stop. I was suddenly surrounded by fifty bodyguards. Now, this couldn't be anymore fun.

"Waaah! Help" That's one.

"No, please!" Two.

And it went on.

Swing

A knife. I was about to be stabbed until a guy saved my ass.

That guy was Ruka Nogi.

"Really now? Being the hero and stuff? Why won't you let me join?"

"Ruka, this is none of your concern. It's about Mikan."

"Shut up. I just wanted to save my best friend's ass."

He helped me back up, and continued on the mission.

We searched every room in the underground facility and commercial building, but Mikan wasn't there.

Then, a guy on the rooftop was waiting for us.

"Good afternoon, Mister. It seems that we have caught you in our hands."

And behind him, was the girl I've been searching for.

Mikan's POV

I miss Natsume. The naked stare of their eyes is making my heart shrink of fear.

A man was with me. I seemed like he was their boss. He looked like any normal business man, except the deadly eyes.

I won't lose to them. I won't lose to thei hideous eyes. Because I know, Natsume will come for me. He definitely will.

Just then, I heard the door smashed open.

I saw him. The man I have been waiting for.

Ruka's POV

Oh, here comes the love birds' reunion. Geez.

Natsume's POV

"Ruka, we need to finish this fast."

I let our my gun and shot it all over the sky, just to distract them.

"Ruka, now."

We made each end every bodyguard unconscious. Except for that guy, and his most loyal bodyguard.

"I never knew you would be this talented, Natsume Hyuuga. I guess it's time that we settle the feud in our family, brother."

"Likewise, brother."

Mikan's POV

I could hear them speak. But not so clearly.

Brother

Brother? He is Natsume's brother? What? What's happening? Why are they fighting?

Natsume's POV

He made the first move. We exchanged punches until we were all soaked in red liquid.

I saw Ruka finished his battle.

"Ruka, get Mikan out of here!"

Ruka was now getting Mikan, but Mikan was struggling.

"No, I won't leave without Natsume!"

I looked at Mikan one last time, and said, "I love you. Wait for me."

The door closed. Now, I must finish this.

Mikan's POV

"No, Natsume, no!" Ruka was dragging me out.

I was crying. The questions of uncertainty kept running in my head. What if I won't see him again? What if he died? What will I do if we were seperated eternally? I just don't want that to happen.

"I love you. Wait for me."

Those were the last words I heard before we were seperated again.

Those were the last words I would hold on to until I die.

Those were the last words that will make me hold on.
