Chapter 4: The Intruder
"Dilandau!" Hitomi screamed as she raced for the door.
"Come here you little pain1" he hissed grabbing her arm and throwing her into a wall where she hit hard before violently crashing back down on the top of her glass coffee table.
Vision let out a vicious growl and pounced on Dilandau biting him with her might jaws
"Get off me!" He screamed hitting the dog across the head the nearest object. Vision yelped and let go to retreat a few steps back. Dilandau stood to his feet in time to hear pounding on the door
"Hitomi, Hitomi are you all right!" Hitomi began to lift herself off the shards of glass
"Anthony!" She gasped painfully. Dilandau ran over to her and pulled her to her feet. The door came crashing down and Anthony entered with great speed, but stopped at the sight before him. A silver haired boy was holding a sword to Hitomi's neck
"Stay back" Dilandau spat
"What's going on" He breathed.
"Anthony go, get out of here please" Hitomi pleaded as tears slipped down her cheeks
"Better do as she say's, if you wish to live"
Anthony ignored the threat and stepped closer. Dilandau pressed the blade harder against her neck.
"Your friend doesn't listen, just like you"
"If you want to kill me Dilandau than why don't you just do it"
"Humph...That would be to easy, I want revenge and I shall have it. You shall suffer just as I have suffered. You're the reason they're dead you kept the dragon alive and he killed them, he killed my men because of you!"
"You started the war you killed them yourself!" Dilandau pressed the blade even harder and pulled down slightly bringing a cry from Hitomi as a thin line of crimson blood ran down his blade.
" Hitomi!" Anthony panicked
"Back off man this is not your fight!" Dilandau looked up at the ceiling and began to shout
"Take me back!" Upon finishing his request a blue pillar of light fell upon them, and they began to lift off the ground. Anthony backed away in confusion.
"My God!"
Vision barked and growled as Hitomi was being pulled upward. She jumped in the light biting down on Dilandaus leg causing curses to pour from his lips. Anthony breathed in all the nerves he had and followed Vision into the light, and then it vanished leaving an empty room behind.
