The first thing I woke up to again happened to be his face. I stretched out on the bed arching my back and putting my arms out, I yawned and then got up. He had been watching me throughout this display.
"What?" I grouched at him.
"You looked like an adorable little kitten." He smiled at me.
I blushed, "Wha-!"
I ignored it and went over to my wardrobe, doing my best to pretend he was invisible. I started to pick out a deep blue dress, when my sister came in my room looking out of breath.
"What happened to you?" I asked.
"Gregory says we need to practice our German!" She breathed in an urgent voice.
I felt the blood drain from my face, "W-well I guess we'll just have to do that."
She nodded furiously, I went under my bed and started getting out the box that we had prepared for a time like this.
"You may leave now." I said curtly to the butler who was still standing there hovering.
He seemed confused but didn't question it to much as he left. After he was gone I ripped Christina out of her dress and took my nightgown off. We rushed to get into our boy peasant clothing, it was a bit dirty on purpose and nobody would question to dirty poor boys. We were dressed within a minute and I heard Gregory's footsteps coming.
"Quick! In my arms now!" I whispered to Christina.
She didn't question me as she jumped in my arms and I jumped out the window. What was unexpected was the fact that as soon as I was air born I got shot at by at by tranquilizers. I looked to see Mary fully prepared for me. Danngit! Those servants of ours have learned, I bet Gregory put her up to this. As soon as I hit the ground I ran like a bullet into the trees to try and get away, that's when my foot broke the wire that was there making a huge explosion that blew me back towards the house. I blame Hubert. I then saw Gregory casually look out my still open window.
"Oh Mistress please do come back inside, it will be cold out today." He said as if he hadn't just tried to blow me to bits!
"NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS!" I yelled up at him.
"Don't worry we'll be sure to help you." He smiled at me, and I could hear the death threat in his voice.
I then decided to take a different route and went strait into the forest that did not go towards town. A couple of grenades landed pretty close to me and I felt some tranquilizers whiz past me.
Yet I was soon enough to far for them to catch us.
"Yes we did it!" I exclaimed.
"YAY!" Christina yelled.
Apparently we celebrated to soon, when I saw a black silhouette chasing us, I let out an indescribable scream as I pumped my legs even faster. Which just so happened to scare the crap out of Christina and she yelled to, of course I knew who it was, but she did not. I tried to leap onto a tree to give me more of a boost but I had never done it with a passenger. The thing that shocked me was that instead of a boost it made me air born into the sky. Apparently to much leg power behind it, which made the person chasing us just have to wait till we fell downward. I saw him smiling as I landed in his arms.
"Allow me to escort you home." He said cheerfully.
"Alright put us down!" I snapped at him.
As soon as we were both down I set Christina on her feet and she looked like it was the worst day of her life, for her it might have been.
"SORRY!" I yelled as I made a mad dash for it.
No way was I going to sit through a class of learning how to speak German! I already knew, French, Dutch, Spanish (Mexico), and English, and now Gregory say that we have to learn how to speak German. Heck no! So I ran off once again I was not giving up, I heard Christina yell behind me 'traitor!' Oh well, one of us has to live right? I heard him behind me but I didn't turn my head to confirm, I just kept on going as I pumped my legs faster and faster. At one point I pulled a tree branch back and I hoped it hit him in the face, but I didn't stay to make sure. Soon enough though I could no longer hear him behind me, I turned to see but there was nothing. I slowed to a stop and opened up my senses, closing my eyes, to see if I could feel or hear him. I couldn't, strange I must have lot him.
Right as I thought that I opened my eyes and walked forward strait into a black chest! I yelped and jumped back at least ten feet.
"Ah Miss Rodriguez, there you are. Come we must return or the others will start to worry." He smiled at me.
"Don't fool with me! I know you're a kidnapper!" I pointed accusingly at him.
He then put on a mask of concern, "What do you mean?"
I glared at him, "My sister."
"If I remember correctly it was you who gave her to me."
"Yeah well..."
"To think you would abandon her so easily." He said shaking his head.
"It wouldn't be the first time." I mumbled looking at the ground.
"Well come now we must be getting your sister." He held his hand out to me.
"You left her alone!" I bellowed at him.
He seemed shocked and confused at my outburst, "Well yes I had to come get you."
It made since but it still pissed me off, "I can't believe you!" I yelled.
Turning my heel on him I ran back to where I had left her, when I got there she was gone.
"Crap" I whispered.
I started feeling for her presence and sniffing the air for where she might be.
"Christina come out my darling, okay." I said in a sweet voice.
I suddenly heard sniffling and I ran in that direction, I found her crouched next to a tree.
"Oh darling!" I scooped her up in my arms.
She started blubbering, "I was *sob* alone and *sob* it was dark an *sob* couldn't *sob* breath."
"Shhh~ your alright I got you." I comforted her, petting her head.
Sebastian seemed confused by the sight, but I walked past him and started back towards the house. I wasn't going to make another attempt run with her in this state. When we came back to the house everything had been cleaned up as if it never happened. I walked up to Christina's room and set her on the bed getting two dresses out for the both of us, she finally came to.
"Gah! I act like such a baby sometimes!" She complained, wiping away her tears.
"Your traumatized what can I say, its my fault anyway you think I would have learned by now." I looked down at the last part, ashamed of myself.
"Dude, we were what age again? We were six years old, you didn't know any better."
"Yeah but I made you afraid to be in the forest alone. I didn't expect him to leave unattended."
"I'm an adult, I also assume he didn't expect me to break down like that."
"Yeah probably."
"I'm pretty sure its a certain."
"Whatever." I smiled at her, "Well lets get this over with."
"Crap, well you know what they say."
"What?" I asked.
"Another one bites the dust."
