Kidnapped!
Chapter 21: To Close!
Tohru
I lowered myself to the ground with ease. I was definitely building strength I was relieved when Mom told me that all Fallen's where born somewhat weak and developed strength when they discovered their true.. way of life.
"Now, do your whistle to summon Mystery" Sean instructed We have been practicing with me signalling her with a loud whistle from my mouth and fingers. I did my usual whistle which was very cool to do.
I waited a few seconds and Mystery came, flying majestically toward me. I reached my arm out with had the gloves. The gauntlets where very useful. They went to my elbow and where very protective. I did not want a repeat of her clawing me. Yuki seemed worried.
"Good, she is very loyal. And very fast" My mother commented, i smiled and petted Mystery lovingly,
"So how is she coming along." Sean asked, i looked at the small hawk.
"Pretty good, She loves steak" I said fondly. My mother chuckled. I told her about feeding Mystery the meal and steak. my mother smiled at me, proudly.
Mystery flew around for a few minutes. I practiced all three types of flying. I giggled as i did. It was a lot of fun! I especially loved flying on my stomach. I soared around, Mystery flying around me.
"Hey we are going to see how Many miles per hour you fly at this point. The usual is around 3 miles" Sean said, I felt nervous. For a beginner, 3 miles seemed kind of fast...
They had me get into position and Sean held up a device that would calculate my speed.
"Ready...Set.. Go!" Sean shouted. I sped off, and flew around the clearing. A few minutes later Sean shouted
"Stop!" I stopped and lowered myself to the ground.
"I can't believe this..." Sean murmured, sounding awe-struck and utterly shocked
"What? What did i get?" I asked, fearing the worst.
"At a few weeks of training you can fly at... 10 Miles per hour!" Sean declared, I widen my eyes,
"10 miles per hour?" I asked he nodded.
"That means you are going to be one of the fastest Fallen's in the world!" Mom exclaimed, i smiled. My mother looked so proud. I beamed at her, I continued practicing.
"Let's try height" Sean said. I rose 20 or so feet in the air. Sean levitated (Without wings) and shouted
"Higher! We need to stretch it out. I'll be here if anything goes wrong" Sean assured me.
I rose another 20 feet in the air, i felt the wind pick up. Sean nodded, 20 feet again, followed by another 20 feet, i just rose into the air without really thinking.
"How high am i!?" I shouted to Sean, The wind had definitely picked up.
"About a little over a hundred feet!" He shouted. I nodded, shocked.
I flew in a big circle, around the area above the house. It looked a little smaller above but i could still see it fairly well.
"Go higher!" Sean shouted, I kept rising into the air for around 5 minutes, The house starting disappear. Sean flew up to me
"I think this is good, How do you feel?" Sean asked, I thought for a minute and responded
"I feel a little exhausted. Like if i stay up here much longer, I'm going to fall" I said, Sean led me down and i collapsed on the soft short grass.
"Your doing great" Sean said, I nodded, tired.
"Also, we need Mystery to get a scent and taste of your blood" Sean said, i looked at him confused
"It's so she can find you over long distances, don't worry" Sean assured me,
"Fine," He handed me a silver dagger. I shuddered at memories of my Kidnap... I unwrapped my arm and looked at my wrist. The shiny X's forever on my skin...
I sliced the skin on my forearm. i winced as the cool metal cut through the flesh.
"There." I muttered. Mystery flew over to me, and sniffed my arm. She looked a me.
"She has now connected your blood scent to you. You can rest now" HE discarded of the soiled gauze. I sighed and fell back on my back. The knife laid next to me. I shivered and closed my eyes, sending Mystery back to my room...
YUKI
I walked around our property. I stumbled upon a big clearing. I looked around til i noticed a figure in the middle of the clearing. I saw blood on the ground, a knife... And Tohru. With blood leaking out of her arm onto the earth underneath her.
I gave a startled cry and ran to her. I knee-led next to her. My breathing came out faster. I picked her up so her face was up. I shook her gently. Desperately trying to get her eyes to open. I saw Brown eyes open. I let out a sigh of relief. Tohru got up, totally fine.
"What did you do?!" I asked, horrified at her arm. A clean, straight cut ran down her arm. She tried hiding her arm.
"Nothing" She lied, I shook my head
"Tohru, Why are you doing this?" I asked desperately. She seemed confused.
"What do you mean?" Tohru asked, I groaned and face palmed myself.
"Why are you doing THIS!" I said, putting emphasize on the word "This" and gestured to her bleeding arm. Tohru looked worried. Before she could speak, i continued talking.
"Is there something your hiding from me?" I asked, my hurt coming up. She looked torn.
"Yuki... I'm not hiding anything." Tohru said, I sensed, her hesitation.
"Your lying, aren't you?" I asked softly. She gasped, tears in her eyes. I felt instantly bad. I stepped forward and hugged her, bringing her close. she wrapped her arms around me.
"I'm sorry Rue, I just worry about you. Your special to me, and... I'm protective of you" I said, she sniffed and looked in my eyes, she was still in my arms,
"I know, I'm glad to have you with me. I'm glad you care about me, I care about you too." Tohru whispered. I smiled at her.
"Then Please stop hurting yourself" I said in a humorous tone. Tohru giggled.
"I'll try!" She exclaimed laughing. I took her hand and we walked back to the house, hand-in-hand.
"So Yuki, That was interesting yesterday. At the Dojo" Shigure said, Tohru disappeared up to her room. I walked upstairs and sat down in front of Shigure in his room.
"Hmm" I said, not making eye contact.
"What was that about?" Shigure asked, his fingers intertwining. He rested his chin on his attached hands.
"Um..."
"I know what happened." Shigure said, I looked at him, wide eyed.
"A guy was flirting with Tohru. Trying to convince her to get with him. And you flipped on him and literally flipped him" Shigure said, I blushed
"I-I" Shigure cut me off
"And i heard you confronted a guy at school, who kissed Tohru. You seemed upset with him" Shigure commented.
"What's his name?" SHigure asked,
"Luke Swift" I muttered, I dislike that guy with a passion!
"Uh oh" Shigure said,
"What?" I asked, standing up. Shigure looked nervous
"Damn it! Tell me Shigure! What?!" I demanded, rasing my voice slightly.
"He's on his way to come visit Tohru" Shigure said, flinching.
"Dammit!" I shouted, I ran downstairs and Tohru was at the door with it wide open.
Speak of the Devil...
"Luke?" Tohru stuttered out.
"Hey Tohru" Luke said he walked in.
"What are you doing here?" Tohru asked nervously.
"Here to see you, Doll-face" Luke said, winking at her, she blushed. I gave a soft growl.
"Why did you want to see me?" Tohru asked, I shook my head.
"I think you and I should get together."
"Luke, I don't know what to say." Tohru said, I decided to intervene.
"Hey Tohru!" I said walking up and hugging her. Luke looked bewildered, I smirked at this.
"So, What's up?" I asked, i felt Tohru relax when my arm stayed around her.
"I was just stopping by to say Hi. I'll see you at school Tohru" Luke said awkwardly. He walked out of the house in a fast pace. I smirked again.
"Thank you Yuki!" Tohru exclaimed, kissing my cheek. I smiled.
"That was very awkward!" She sighed exasperatedly.
I know, That's why i came to your rescue." I said, kissing her temple.
Great. Tohru's have had to guys profess how they should be a couple to her... I am happy about this...
Sorry! Sorry it took a little longer than planned! I hoped y'all liked this!
