Episode 6 Part 1
On the farm the whole group apart from Niko, Mara and Roman who were of course out searching for Misha were working away, helping with farm tasks, except Eli who watched them all in annoyance as he sat under a tree.
He growled, thinking about Mara. 'She better be back soon. Waste of time looking for that little brat, probably got bit or became walker food a long time ago. It's all because of that stupid kid we haven't fucked in so long.'
At that moment Zlata looked up and saw the vehicle approaching.
"Hey they're back." She called out.
The others reacted at once, all looking up and beginning to move to meet them once they were parked.
Eli muttered under his breath. "It's about fucking time..."
He finally stood up and went to greet his girlfriend, to finally put an end to this nonsense. They all stopped however when Niko and Roman got out of the car, Roman gathering up their weapons while Niko opened the back door, then to everyone's great surprise, Mara emerged, carrying Misha in her arms. They all gasped, their hearts soaring. Eli stopped in his tracks, completely shocked at the sight of Misha alive. Mara was simply holding Misha close, shielding him as she knew everyone was going to crowd around him and it could overwhelm him. She didn't even spare a glance towards Eli.
She gently tried to soothe Misha who was whimpering softly and sniffling, burying his face into Mara's shoulder, traumatized and embarrassed about his clothes but so happy to be in her arms again, safe.
Anton found his voice first. "You found him, is he...?"
"He's hurt, but nothing life threatening, it's been a horrible overwhelmed experience for him, so please guys, a bit of space." Niko explained firmly.
Roman nodded. "He should get cleaned up at least, maybe some fresh clothes too."
"There's a shower in the bathroom upstairs, he can use that." Anton explained with a smile.
While nobody else did, Mara noticed Sergei hurrying back to the house while all this was being said. Misha, overhearing all this, responded by burying his face even more into Mara, crying softly, embarrassed and not wanting the attention.
Mara, her voice cracking from her emotions. "He's so hungry too. Anton please, he needs a nice warm bed tonight, I can't bear to put him in a tent tonight..."
Anton smiled and nodded as Mara softly stroked Misha's hair.
"Of course, I'll see if a room can be set up...rooms, all of you."Anton said at last.
"Thank you Anton." Mara breathed, relief flooding her.
She continued to whisper sweet, soft words to Misha, stroking his hair and kissing his head.
Eli glared, watching jealously as Mara soothed Misha.
'I can't fucking believe it, that little brat is alive! And still as much of a crybaby as ever...fuck, she's going to spend all of her time with him, little brat is gonna milk her attention. Fuck.' He thought bitterly.
Arica was wide-eyed. "You mean, we're all moving into the house?"
Anton nodded. "Yes now come, quickly, let's get him inside, I'll see about dinner while he cleans up."
Mara spoke gently to Misha. "Come on sweetheart, let's get you inside, you can take a nice hot shower and we'll get you something to eat"
Misha curled his fingers in her shirt, whimpering.
The others begin working and gathering their stuff at once. Meanwhile Anton led Mara inside and directed her towards the bathroom, before giving them privacy. Mara put Misha down and they stood at the bathroom door, Misha blushed as the signs of him wetting himself were visible now, so long as someone sees him from the front.
Mara at once tried to calm him. "It's ok baby, nobody blames you. We'll find you some clean clothes. Do you need me to come in there with you? If not, I'll wait right here by the door."
"C-can you wait by the door?" Misha stammered.
Mara nodded and just then, Sergei arrived, carrying a bundle.
"Here, these...these are old clothes of mine...they should still fit Misha though." He said, offering the bundle.
It now made perfect sense why Sergei ran into the house earlier, to get these clothes for Misha. She smiled, softening and gently took the clothes.
"Thank you, that's very nice of you to do that." She said before handing it to Misha. "I'll wait right here sweetie, and then we can go downstairs and eat."
Misha nodded and closed the door to begin while Sergei headed back to join the others.
Meanwhile, outside, everybody is gathering their stuff to move in, Eli begrudgingly gathering Mara and Misha's stuff as well.
"Still, so incredible, that they found him." Boris remarked.
Eli rolled his eyes. 'Just fucking peachy. Now I have to deal with that whiny little brat clinging to her hip at all times again. I should have never let her go out today.'
"So where'd you find him anyway?" He asked Niko and Roman
Roman glared. "In the hands of that sick fucker who got what was coming to him."
There were gasps of horror from the others, Eli shifted uncomfortably, not happy at being proven wrong. Certainly not expecting that answer he furrowed his brows.
"Did he do anything to him?"
Roman shook his head. "If you mean the way I think you're meaning no, he was about to before I introduced his skull to my knife."
"That's not to say he wasn't hurt, that creep certainly hurt him...physically and mentally." Niko explained sadly.
"Kid was gone for a few day days. No telling what he could have done to him." Eli said, nodding slowly, all the while thinking. 'Should have left him in a fucking ditch somewhere, surprised the kids constant crying didn't send him to an early grave.'
With that they continued moving into the house.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
