#4, First Contact or… Capture
The man that was in charge nodded to the other man with the gun giving him the go ahead to shoot the girl as everyone else took a quick step back that hadn't done so already. Kite shook off my grip and ran forwards shouting out a long and loud, "No!" heading straight for the man that was about to shoot the girl. The three of us were noticed by the men for the first time at that moment. The girl looked up at almost the same second as when Kite slammed into the gunman and cried out what I guess to be no but sounded more like, "ie!" as they made contact. A loud bang went off as the man went down with Kite atop of him and Angela and me fell to the ground. The leader like man shouted out some kind of orders and the three of us were surrounded. Kite was pulled off of the other man with much kicking and punching but he was no match for the men that were more than a foot taller than him at the shortest. Within a few more moments Angela and me had been grabbed and pulled around the side of the pipes and stood in front of the group each held by one man. Which is kinda a little disheartening that it only takes one person to hold you back from doing anything. Having your arms pulled around behind you doesn't help the most either.
Kite was a little more volatile than either Angela or I and he had two men holding him for a moment till he calmed. The leader like guy looked at us and his brow creased a little and he said something to the person holding Angela and he grabbed her belt that her pokeballs were attached to. Angela made a feeble protest but had her arms yanked hard which more than stopped her in her tracks as the man holding her threw the belt and pokeballs over to the leader guy. He grabbed the belt and looked at it then at the three of us in turn having momentarily forgotten the girl still kneeling in her own blood. She was muttering the same thing over and over again as she looked down to the ground, the first real sounds I'd heard from her. Her voice sounded like crystal, clear and true, if it weren't for the emotion placed behind it and the fact she was weakening she would have had what anyone can come as close as to an angels voice.
The man growled something and both me and Kite were quickly searched for our own pokeballs and they were thrown down in front of the leader guy. Lucky for me I keep mine attached to a necklace and they were pretty easy to see, I really wouldn't have liked some weird guy looking for them. Kite again was less than cooperative as he kicked out at the guy that came and grabbed his pokeballs out from the insides of his vest.
The leader guy nodded his head once more after saying something else and pointed to the building where the original group of guys had come out of. Those ones were still laying spread out in a circle where they had fallen the only movement an occasional twitch. The men holding the three of us quickly started shoving us along towards the direction that had been pointed out. Angela and I went pretty calmly, I think Angela was in shock at the time. But Kite was still putting up his front of not cooperating. He kept trying to get back to the girl that had started coughing up more of her life onto the ground again and was kicking and thrashing at the two men who were holding him from doing so. He cried out I think three times but I'm not sure what he said. But the response from the girl was automatic as she whipped her head around as fast as she could and stared at him wide eyed. She muttered something and her eyes lit up with sparks of light as they started to become watery. This seemed to give Kite some much needed energy and he suddenly broke free of his captors and ran and let himself fall dead in front of the girl and stared into her face. He said something to her in a whisper, the only way I could tell he was saying anything was that I was able to wrench me head around to look at him and see his lips move even as the man was still shoving me along.
The leader guy growled something that sent the two men that were meant to be holding Kite running to grab him. They quickly pulled him up off of the ground even as he swung around and sent a heavy kick into the side of one the men. The girl looked at him and smiled sadly as if knowing something that he didn't. As the man dropped Kite in surprise he fell nearly atop of the girl but was quickly halted as the other man grabbed the back of his shirt and he never got to land. He sat in limbo for half a second where he and the girl were dead on eye level together and she took a hand up to where his face should have been just as he was pulled back. Kite shouted something that I'm not going to repeat as a layer of red trickled down his clothes as he was yanked hard. He was about to spin around and lay another kick to the man again when out to his side the other man that he had originally kicked sent a hard punch into Kite's side that toppled him over groaning in pain.
Not leaving him to lay on the ground the men quickly yanked him up from the ground again and started to drag him to where we were about to enter the building. Kite didn't let his eyes leave the girl and just as I turned the corner I dug my heels into the ground so I could see what was happening. It paused the man just long enough.
The leader man was shouting at the other men and another man was lowering his gun nozzle to the girl's head once more. She was trying hard to hold her smile still as she looked at Kite, her body shuddered once as most of her blood had already left her body. Kite was kicking and punching once more but quickly gave up as he started getting blows marked upon himself instead of against his captors as they retaliated to each try.
Kite just tried to keep eyes with the girl that was holding her smile despite what was happening. She whispered something that I don't think anyone heard and then she cried out one word.
I couldn't understand what it was or even meant as it was in the same language that the men in black were using but by that split second look on her face showed something that was deeper than sorrow. Kite's face was a mask of confusion. That was the last thing I saw before I turned the corner and couldn't see anymore as the man holding me gave up on trying the nice way to keep me moving and punched me hard in the side and started dragging me. A moment later after turning and I was less than two meters down the inside of the dark building and I heard a loud bang. The gunman had fired. It wasn't two seconds after that I heard Kite scream out in anger and from the faint commotion I could hear he had tried to get back to where the girl was again.
He later told me he blacked out as he didn't get more than two feet after breaking from his two guards before they grabbed him again and gave him three sharp blows, the final to his head.
But the one thing that burned into my head from that first initial scene of meeting the first one of them was the look and that single word that the girl shouted out as Kite was pulled away. That's a scene that's played over inside my head more than most and I have a lot of things that do that now. Majority of them I would never wish upon another, no matter who they were.
As we entered the building I couldn't see behind me anymore so I couldn't see what had happened to Kite and I was getting worried because I couldn't hear him. Angela was ahead of me and seemed to be in a sort of daze or something still. She was just going forwards and her guard person had to keep stopping and turning her accordingly.
To look at this place from the outside you wouldn't have known or even thought they had all the stuff in the place that they did. We passed a few closed doors and some open ones. The whole passageway was basically black but a red flashing light that was situated above each of the doors and along the roof ever few meters or so. Those must have been the lights Kite and I had originally seen. We weren't exactly moving quickly but we weren't moving all that slow either and I wasn't able to see all that much as we went through the dark building. The red lights weren't helping much only really adding an eerie glow to the place. Plus the fact the walk was pretty much uneventful didn't help much. Looking in the few doors open all that was to view was either large rooms with a table and chairs or computers. Got kind of boring after a little while. Nothing like repetition to bore the life out of you.
The only thing that was of interest was the fact they split Angela and me up and I'm guessing Kite as well as we came to a five-way intersection. Angela and her man in black went down the far right corridor, I went down the one next to it and I don't know where Kite went.
From then on it was just forwards, forwards, turn, forwards, stop and talk, forwards, through a door, through another door, forwards, talk to someone else, forwards and etc, etc. I kind of lost track and when there was those few talking times it was in that weird language and I didn't understand a word of it.
One thing though, it was immensely large inside the building even though I think we actually went up a floor or two as well. There were quite a lot of steps that were scattered around the place. For a construction site that didn't look anywhere near finished this place was well furnished and was big enough.
The man that was in charge nodded to the other man with the gun giving him the go ahead to shoot the girl as everyone else took a quick step back that hadn't done so already.
