Chapter Six

Amon hurried down the sidewalk that was harshly crowded with people.

"How are we supposed to get away if there are so many people" Robin asked to him as Amon continued pushing people out of the way.

"We have to get to a clear area, and break for it. We cannot lead them back to the apartment." Amon yelled back to her as her pulled her along.

The two hunters still chased them showing no signs of stopping. They followed Amon and Robin into a park. As soon as guns were seen in their hands people started running out of the park yelling for others to get out.

"Amon I can't run anymore" Robin pleaded with him as they rounded a small pond.

Amon knew that he could not run anymore either, the hunters were going to start taking shots and he needed to fight back. He pushed Robin behind a tree as he came to it and kneeled behind it himself.

"Stay down" Amon yelled to Robin as she looked from the tree to the hunters drawing closer. Amon grabbed his gun and cocked it ready to shoot the hunters. The ground suddenly started to shake and Amon lost his footing hitting the ground for a brief second before rising again.

"Craft users" He shouted as he steadied his gun to shoot. He fired four bullets but missed do to the shaking earth. One of the hunters, the one using to craft, was slowly walking towards the tree. He shielded himself from the bullets by using his craft.

"Robin use your fire to distract him and then get behind the tree again" He ordered her.

Robin swiftly left her spot flaming the earth in front of the hunter approaching, catching him off guard. But, Robin did not get back behind the tree as Amon had instructed. Amon yelled at her as he shot the first hunter. Robin aimed her craft at the second hunter now running towards them.

"Robin get down" Amon hissed to her as he aimed for the remaining man. Robin did go down, as the hunter shot her shoulder catching her off guard. She fell to the ground holding her arm in pain and leaning against the back of the tree.

'I thought I could take him' she thought as the blood oozed from her wound. 'But he shot to fast and I did not have my glasses.'

Amon's bullets finally connected with the hunters chest and he fell to the ground dead just like his partner.

Amon kneeled down to see Robin. She winced in pain and scrunched up her face. Amon removed the sleeve of her jacket around her shoulder to look at the place where she had been shot. It was bad but he could take care of it as long as they got back to the apartment.

Amon helped Robin to her feet and they quickly walked back to their place, looking around every corner to make sure no one was following them.

When they returned Amon sat Robin down on the couch and headed for the bathroom. He came back a couple seconds later with a first aid kit. The sleeve of her dress had been slightly torn and Amon ripped the rest off the get to the injury. She had gotten new clothes anyway.

Robin hissed as he poured something into the spot where she had been hit.

"From now on when I tell you to do something, you do it. If you would have stayed behind the tree than you would not be hurt" He scolded her, but Robin had just taken it in. She had known that his little speech had been coming.

"It's too dangerous for us to take chances, we are lucky that nothing else happened." He said a little more softer than before having a little sympathy for her pain.

A little while ago Robin would have been blushing at the fact that Amon was touching her shoulders skin, but this had just taken all the chances she might have had away.

She starred at he distant wall unaware of the fact that Amon was starring at her.

'He must be so mad at me. First, I get us into this whole mess by being who I am, than I worry him by sneaking out. Not to mention the fact that he knows I have been talking to Michael, and now this. Wow! I really am screwing up. Why doesn't' t he just leave me.' she thought as they both continued to stare at their different places on the walls surounding them.

"Amon, why do you stay?" she asked directing her eyes to the floor, not wanting to look him in the eyes.

"What" He responded, surprised by her question.

"You have never really answered me before, you are my watch dog yes but if I am such a burden then why not just kill me and move along with your life?" She questioned, raising her gaze to rest upon him.

"You are to dangerous to be on your own."

"You still did not answer, you could just be rid of me. "

"I do not want to be rid of you" Amon said, surprised by what he said. He had let his feelings decide what he said and he could not allow that. "You deserve a chance" He then added to cover up any hint that he might care for her. "I have no life left with the STN-J. It's over. I might as well keep tabs on you."

With that he walked back into the bathroom to take a shower. Robin could here the running water start up. Just once she wished that he would stay in her presence after he said something like that.
