*"I--I did---Itried..."she said crying in fear and pain. This angered Layne more and she prepared to throw the crystal dome at Meryl.Meryl closed her eyes. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Layne,"she said, as Laynes arm came crashing down*
Meryl was ready to except her obvious fate. SHe closed her eyes, willing it to be over. A few flashes of memories flashed before her eyes.THe twins being born, Their 1 and 5th birthdays, the day Layne ran away, and her devastation of not being able to search because it would cause questions to rise from Vash when he saw her. *I should've just told him, I'm such a bad mother*she though mournfully. Meryl heard another scream from Layne and thought: *This is it*. But no pain came. Instead she heard Grayfall's voice, and Layne screaming. "LAYNE LAYNE STOP!" Grayfall yelled, grabbing her from behind. Layne wrenched out of his grasp,whirling around, and dropping the crystal dome (A/N The dome is like one of those things you put over cakes, or DONUTS HEH). She stood speachless, staring at him hate still in her eyes. "Bluesummers," she hissied, then picked up a chair leg and turned back to Meryl. Grayfall was scared and called out mentally to Knives and Legato. 'Hurry up she is going to kill Meryl if she gets the chance!' he sreamed mentally.
No reply came, but he felt them getting really close. A few moments later Meryl and Grayfall heard more people come crashing into the room.Layne was screaming bloody murder, others yelling too. She opened her eyes and saw Knives, Legato and Wolfwood struggling to restrain Layne. "Go..help..Meryl!"Legato gasped to him, muscles bulging all over his body. Grayfall, finally seeing Meryl's perilous posistion rushed over and helped her up.
"Are you ok?"he asked worriedly, extending an arm to help her up. Meryl smiled and nodded, taking his arm and hauling herself up.When she went to stand on her own she almost collapsed.Grayfall wrinkled his brow in concern and picked her up. "We've gotta get you out of here,"he said, a little reluctulantly.Meryl smiled and nodded, dealing with the harsh pain in her leg.Grayfall left out the back door, carrying Meryl to Millies house across the town. As he approached the house Millie and Nixie came rushing out.
"Meryl, Meryl are you ok?"Millie said, flitting about nervously. Nixie glanced at Grayfall but didn't say anything. "Meryl, Sempai you look exhausted,"Millie crowed, tenderly touching her swollen ankle.Meryl yelped, nearly toppling Grayfall over.Grayfall shot an angry look at Millie then, almost losing his concentration and falling again "Uh, Millie, Im gonna drop her if you don't let me in the house soon,"Grayfall gasped, fighting to stay vertical.Mille looked at him stupidly for a moment then gasped. "Oh Im sorry Grayfall how rude of me, come inside and put Meryl on the couch,"she said happily, leading the boy into the house.
Grayfall gently lay Meryl on the couch, then turned to Millie. "I think I should go back over there and help calm Layne---"Grayfall started to say. He was cut off by all three women in the room. "No, absoulutely not you could get seriously hurt!"they chorused. He didn't listne and continues onward to the door. Sighing, Nixie ran over and grabbed his arm. "Come on, Zac is up stairs waiting for us,"she said softly, recognizing the look in Grayfalls eyes. Grayfall cast a mournful/longingful/dejected look at the door then allowed himself to be carted up the stairs.
*A few hours later* Meryl had been moved to Legato's house next to her own. SHe had begged for hours to get there, and in the end had gotten her way. The threee kids had went to Grayfalls room, Zac and Nixie looking a bit confused.Grayfall had ignored it, joining in solemnlywhen they asked him questions in theif conversation.After a while he had escuse himself to the game room asking to be alone. Zac and Nixie had been talking about Layne for a while, or so Grayfall thought.. Grayfall was really worried about Layne, and what was going to happen to her family.He sighed as he thought of what had happened previously.HE had heard everything that Layne was screaming. He had heard the crashes and called out telepahtically to his father and Knives who had rushed over to help him immedeatly. He remebered the hatred in Laynes eyes as he had picked Meryl up and left the house.
*Was that hatred directed at me to.....I..*he thought sighing heavily. Behind him the door opened and Zac, Nixie and Lorienth entered the room.They all looked very worried and tired.Loreinth sighed, looking at him apolegetically. "Grayfall...."Loreinth said, sitting beside him. She gazed into his eyes, not knowing what he had heard, because he was the only other one to hear Layne's yelling that night.He turned away from her, not wanting her to see the pain in his eyes. Not wanting to see the pain in her eyes either. Lorienth looked extremely tired.Stress and anguish weighed in her eyes, not to mention the hour of night. Zac and Nixie came and sat down next to him too, a look of deep concern and surprise written on their faces.
They hadn't understood Grayfalls reaction to this until Lorienth had told them about their kiss.Lorienth looked at him pained, then spoke. "Grayfall...they calmed Layne down, you don't need to worry. But, she's gorunded and in really big trouble, atleast that is what Dad said,"Lorienth whispered. Grayfall nodded and studied the wall.STrange how it could be so interesting now.The three other teens eschanged worried glances, communicating with eachother.
"Grayfall....it's really really late, we should sleep,"Zac said, gesturing to the clock, breaking the silence.. Grayfall looked at it and sighed. It was 12 already. "FIne yeah....I guess you're all going to be staying here tonight, you all know where the rooms are,"he sighed, dissapearing into the the darkness of the hall. The others followed suit, dissapearing into various rooms in the hall.. ************
Layne stared sourly at the cieling. She was exhausted, but to angry and riled to sleep. About ten minutes after Grayfall had left with Meryl, Vash and Loreinth arrived home. Seeing the kitchen and the distress of Layne, he had almost fainted. Almost. He had assauged his nerves and then went to pacify Layne. THey had gotten into a huge fight. He had forced Lorienth and the others to leave, deining to calm his irate daughter himself, without needless injury. THey argue for hours, Vash constantly dodging flying objects. It was chaos. Finally after 3 hours of striaght arguing, Vash was fed up. HE had run over and grabbed her roughly, smacking her a few times. Layne had shut up immedeatly,coming back to her rightful senses. VAsh had yelled at her for another hour. Much to her surprise Layne had actually cried about it.
And now she was grounded. For how long she didn't know, but what she did know was that it wasn't fair. Memories flashed thorugh her eyes, fueling her need for revenge. But nothing she could think of would work. Vash and Knives could easily enter her mind, divulging her plans. THen she owuld be in more trouble.
Layne wracked her brains for hours, trying to come up with a good plan, something that would hurt Meryl immensley. Then it hit her. *RUn away, yes I'll run away. I have no need to be here, I have no desire to be here.Besides, it's not like Meryl will tell the truth anyways.And no one else heard, so I'm screwed.No one understands. I'm just going to leave.*She thought triumphantly, geting up and grabbign a duffle bag.
She filled the bag with clothes, food,money, and other various items she thought she would need. Then she grabbed her rucksack and filled that. She knew no one was in the house at the moment. They hadn't figured she'd dare defy Vash and come out of her room.
*Pathectic idoits, I am an outlaw..*Layne thought angrily, swiping all of the car keys off of the counter.She stuck them in her rucksack and went back upstairs. As the clock hit 3 am she stood to leave.
Layne took a flying leap out of the window, she and her bag landing silently on the ground below. She was dressed in the red coat Loreinth had made her and the glasses she had bought so long ago, ehr hair pulled back into a tight ponytail. Layne padded silently to the car, quietly unlocking the door and shoving her pack and rucksack in.
A twinge of guilt hit her as she suddenly thought of Grayfall Loreinth Nixie and Zac. * I really am going to miss them....*she thought, pushing their faces out of her mind. She hadn't noticed the shadowy figure that had approached fom behind.So when it spoke she was scared out of her mind.
"Figured I'd find you out here," a male voice said from behind her. Layne froze.She knew that voice. It belonged to.............
MWAAHHAHAH I LOVE BEING EVIL TO YALL! Heh. Busted in escape. HAHAHAHHA! *Laughs Manically* Legato walks into room. Sees me tied to the flagpole outside of window. Legato: What did you do to Knives THIS time. Me:*Smiles inncoently* Nothing I was just trying to give him a better haircut while he was sleeping Legato:*sighs, unties Me* You really should leave him alone. Me:Nahhh Mr.Spoons is to fun to make fun of. Gun:BOOOoomMMMMM Me:DAMNIT! *Clutches Leg* *Legato falls over (Anime Style)*
*"I--I did---Itried..."she said crying in fear and pain. This angered Layne more and she prepared to throw the crystal dome at Meryl.Meryl closed her eyes. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Layne,"she said, as Laynes arm came crashing down*
