Chapter 29
I was nearing the middle of the aisle when the Kiraist's leader snapped his fingers. Two men, who had been hidden in the pew closest to me leaped out and grabbed me.
"Khol!" Kellan screamed at me.
"I thought I told you not to make a sound. If you don't comply with my demands, I'll kill him."
Kellan's eyes squeezed shut as he braced himself for impact. The man started to close his elbow around Kellan's throat.
You know Khol, I can save him for you,Kira coaxed.
"Wh-where's Light?" I asked frantically.
"He abandoned you, Kremen. I'd never do that. Besides, only I'm strong enough to save your friend."
I felt more hot pain spread through my body, not even waiting for my response. I had become a spectator to Kira's display, completely helpless to his will.
He started to laugh uncontrollably. He flicked his wrists, forcing them out of the men's grip.
"I'm surprised I have so many adoring fans. You're not so tough in the face of the REAL murderer, are you?"
"Kira. You return." The leader bowed on one knee, forcing Kellan down with him. "Milord-"
"Cease your farce, foolish boy. I know you never believed in me in the first place. Now, I want my notebook. Give it to me."
The leader straightened up. "I'm sorry lord. It was in the care of Marta Anacox, but has since disappeared."
"Where do you think it is now?"
The man shrugged. "We don't know."
"Fool. I'll find a way."
Only five more to go! What do you think will happen? I'd love to hear it!
