*Before I go into Chapter 5, someone informed me that Montparnasse is not
one of the students. It was supposed to be Lesgles, but I was tired and had
Montparnasse on my mind. Sorry about that!*
Chapter 5: Losing Battles
::That rifle shot was loud as anything, as Enjolras dropped his pamphlets and bent to pick them up. The bullet just skimmed his hair, flying harmlessly by him. You couldn't say the same for the student behind him. Feuilly took the bullet right in his shoulder. Then all hell broke loose::
Enjy: What was that!?
Feuilly: AHHH!!
::Feuilly grabs his shoulder and falls to the ground::
::All the students turn around and rush over to him, except for Grantaire, Enjolras, and Joly. Enjy quickly points to he government building::
Enjy: It's gotta come from there.. We should get everyone off the streets.
Grantaire: I'll help with Feuilly..
Enjy: No.. Grantaire.. Come with me. Joly, help with Feuilly.
::Grantaire looks surprised as Joly goes over to Feuilly::
Enjy: We're going to find the bastards that did this to Feuilly.
Grantaire: Why me?
Enjy: Cause I guess.. You cared less about Feuilly and wouldn't mind leaving.
Grantaire: True..
Enjy: Now shush..
::They start heading around the building, entering through the back doors.::
Grantaire: It must have been from high up to get such a good aim..
Enjy: Huh.. Something smart from a drunkard? Who would've thought?
::Grantaire gave no reply as the threat of tears stung his eyes. He knew they were aiming for his beloved Enjy. and so happy they missed, even if it did hit Feuilly.::
Enjy: Now hush!
::They both head all the way upstairs. They hear talking in one room, facing the street, and listen in::
Official 1: You missed him! How could you miss him?!?!?
Official 3: He bent down!!
Official 2: incessant mumblings
Enjy: They were aiming for who.. ?
::Grantaire looks sadly at his slow-witted beloved::
Official 1: We'll have to kill him next time..
::Enjy just figures out its him they're after and then pokes Grantaire and motions to him that they should leave. They both get up and leave the building, going silently back to the ABC Café::
MEANWHILE, AT THE ABC CAFÉ
Joly: Is he going to make it, Doc?
Doctor: I think so.. It wasn't too bad a wound.
::Everyone lets out a sigh of relief, just as Enjy and Grantaire come back::
Combeferre: He's going to be all right!
Enjy: Great news..
::Grantaire quickly went to the bar, ordered an absinthe, and huddled himself in the corner::
Courfeyrac: We should all get roaring drunk and have a huge orgy!
::Silence.. Everyone stares at him::
Courfeyrac: Just a thought..
End of Chapter 5.
