Escape Plans, Anyone?
It's that time again!
Darklink313: Ok, I'll try to give Serra a little break.
TFRiD Queen: I liked the 5 bucks thing too.
Jeanie: At times, I want to kill Serra too. So that's why I use Priscilla instead of her. . . .
Hector: The authoress would like to thank you for your patience. She's having her final exams in a couple weeks, and she has a pathetic memory.
Water Princess1 (WP): It's true. It stinks. I need a memory card or something. . .
Hector: So for compensation, we'll have a little muse thing to make up for a sucky chapter.
WP: What? I never agreed to that . . .
Hector: Too bad, I did. evil grin
They are all in an interrogation style room. There's a single light overhead, and WP is sitting in the only chair in the room. The door is locked.
Lyn: Now, be honest. What have you been doing lately instead of working on this fic? glares
WP: counts on her fingers Reading manga, watching TV, hoping for new Inuyasha episodes, let's see . . . reading my brother's Japanese textbook, learning Go . . .
Eliwood, Lyn and Hector: o.O
Lyn: She did that instead of working on this fic? Man, the readers are gonna kill her.
WP: . . . and I did some drawing, looking at hot manga guys, eat sleep, do homework and go to school.
Guy: -- What KIND of hot manga guys?
WP: Heard of Hikaru no Go?
Guy: Nope.
WP: Ragnarok?
Guy: Nope.
WP: You wouldn't know them then.
Raven: Let's just skip this (censored) and get to the fic.
"WHAT?! How could Raven find out about Priscilla and me?!" Guy looked mortified after Lucius had pulled him to the side at school, and whispered in his ear. That drew attention from the rest of the mens' washroom.
Lucius also looked annoyed. "The thing is Raven is gonna KILL you! We have to do something!!"
"Which is the closest way to the Nabata Desert?! He'd never find me there!!" Guy was now sort of hysterical.
Lucius rubbed his chin. "Hmmm . . . knowing him . . . he's probably outside, trying to find out what you look like."
"Erk!" Guy said in the way that he was shocked (he wasn't referring to Erk). "I don't want to get rid of my braid!"
". . . maybe you could just leave your hair down."
Outside the school, while Lucius and Guy were thinking of a plan to keep him alive, Raven was in the bushes with Heath, binoculars in hand, staring at the crowd outside.
"Umm . . . Raven? Aren't we skipping class? You know what Mr. Bartre is going to do to us!"
Raven hushed to him. "I told Karel to tell him we were sick or something." His gaze never left the school's crowds.
Heath paused for a bit before responding. "You DO realize that Karel is just going to say we were killed, right?"
Raven then shrugged. "Eh, then they'll have a big surprise when we come back."
Heath sighed before Raven continued. "You're supposed to be helping me!! Get looking!" He hit Heath on the head to motivate him to do his job.
Sheesh! Last time I skip class with YOU!! Karel's a lot more fun when he skips!
Guy, Erk, and Lucius were now all in the same guy's washroom. Erk had just learned that Raven was now out for his blood, and was also trying to think of a way to avoid an early grave. But Eliwood, Hector, Sain and Kent were also there (why they were there, they probably didn't know).
"How about we just say that Sain is really Guy, who just got a hair cut?"
"WHAT?!" Sain burst out in surprise.
Erk shrugged after telling them of his idea. "Hey, it'd be killing two birds with one stone!"
"He would still be after YOU ya know!!!" The skirt-chasing teenager scowled at Erk, and then walked off. Maybe to go find Serra.
"Maybe you could hide and work at Oswin's grocery store!" Hector suddenly said out loud. They all turned to him, looking confused.
"Oswin has a GROCERY store?" Kent looked at him more bewildered then some of the others.
Eliwood scratched his head. "He doesn't seem the type to run a grocery store."
"He owns a chain of grocery stores! Anyway, we could get Guy and Erk to hide out in there, and after Raven stops looking for them, we can let them come back to school!" Hector summarized his what he thought bright plan.
"What are we going to tell the teachers?" Erk asked.
"Good question."
"Ah."
"Oh NONONONONONONOOOOOO!!!" Priscilla was moaning in the girl's washroom, after hearing the news of her brother's blood hunt (how come this always happens in a washroom?).
"There there, calm down." Lucius was comforting her. He was in the bathroom because he could fool pretty much anybody with his appearance. And after a while, about four months of confusion, the school staff just let Lucius go in any washroom (they just stopped caring).
"I just had a great idea!" Ainda exclaimed happily. Everyone (Lyn, Florina, Serra, Lucius, Priscilla and Nino) turned to her, and listened attentively.
"Well, it's an idea for Guy, anyway. I could get him to stay with my foster brother Chaos! He lives near Bern, and I doubt Raven would go that far away from his home!"
"That would work for Guy, but what about Erk?!" Priscilla gasped, after flowing into tears.
"He could stay at my place until this thing is over!" Nino suggested.
"Umm . . . isn't your mom evil?" Serra blunted pointed out.
Nino had tears welling in her eyes now. "N-n-no s-s-s-she's NOOOOT!!!!"
"Does Pent know Raven?" Lyn asked.
"Yeah. He once had a black eye from him. Raven was then suspended from the school for three months. Why?" Florina answered her.
"Couldn't we just ask him for advice on the situation?"
Everyone sat in silence except for tears from Nino and Priscilla. "I guess that might work." Lyn heard mumbles along those lines from the others.
"I thought we were rid of him!" Pent looked annoyed after the girls had come into his office to talk to him. He had mixed feelings about Raven (which were anger, annoyance, frustration and exhaustion), and was happy to be rid of him when he had been put in that all boys' school across town.
"What are we gonna do?! If he finds Guy and Erk, he'll MASSACRE them!!!" Priscilla was crying. She had even flung herself on Pent, and was crying into his shirt. Everyone looked dumbfounded, except for Louise (who looked a little annoyed).
Everyone backed away a bit. "Umm . . . could you get off me? I have to think!"
"Sorrysorry!" Priscilla mumbled quickly, and jumped away.
"How about we just say that they're sick and didn't make it today?" Nino asked.
Pent shook his head. "Raven would keep coming back. Trust me on that."
The young tactician was growing tired of all this sitting around thinking, then just said out loud, "Why don't they just go up to Raven, and try to live through it? Who knows, maybe Raven would grant them some mercy for being courageous?"
The rest of the room just stared at her like she was crazy. ". . ."
"What? Well, that might happen if they go outside at break. . . . I just thought of something. . . "
Priscilla immediately asked her. "What did you just think of?"
Ainda gulped. "Well, what if they are outside, and then . . . meet Raven?"
They all glanced at each other, and then looked at the time. "Aw crap. Break started a few minutes ago. . ."
A scream was then heard.
Erk wasn't moving. Raven had locked sight with him, and as everyone knows, that means it's time to die. "So, you're Erk." Raven mumbled. Everyone could hear him.
Erk gulped. "So?"
Raven then looked disgusted. "So? That's all you have to say!!?" He then laughed. Then started cracking his knuckles. "Well, everyone should remember the little man who died only saying so."
All those who were looking at the conflict winced whenever they heard a popping sound from Raven's hands. From previous experiences, they knew that they would need to start planning Erk's funeral.
"They're over there!!" Nino called out. Lyn, Eliwood, Hector, Priscilla and Pent came running up.
"Raven!!"
"Priscilla!"
". . ."
"Hello? I'd like to speak to the Principal of this school please. Thank you." Louise was on the phone, calling Raven's school. If she could get the Principal there (Dorcas) to come and get his student, then they wouldn't have to deal with him. Well, it might work.
"Hello?"
"Ah! Yes, this is the vice-principal of Phracan High School. I thought you'd like to know that one of your students is here terrorizing some of ours."
The voice didn't' sound too happy. "Raven and Heath?"
"Yes. We know Raven is here. We're not sure about Heath though."
The voice sighed. "Heath will follow Raven like a lamb at times. Hang on, I'm coming over." He muttered a few more words before hanging up.
Raven had leapt at Erk. Using his small size, Erk had been able to just barely dodge his on comers attack. Summoning his magic strength, he cast his fire spell on Raven, singing him.
"Magic is forbidden on school grounds! Everyone knows that!" Nino exclaimed. "Why would he use it?"
"It would be allowed in a life or death situation. And otherwise, Erk can't fight back. He should be allowed to fight if his opponent can." Ainda explained to the confused Nino, who merely blinked.
"It's still forbidden on school grounds. . ."
Raven got up, and dusted himself off a bit before making a comeback. "Only cowards use magic. If you were really a man, you'd fight me with your hands!"
"Magic is the scholar's weapon." Erk replied back, only getting Raven angrier. He came at him again, only just before hearing his name from someone he hoped never to hear that day.
The principal of his school. Mr. Dorcas.
When they all looked to see who had yelled, they saw someone in a nice looking suit, with short brown hair, which included an extremely small goatee on his chin. He was also tall for a man, and was holding onto Heath's ear (Heath was complaining about that).
"Dorcas!" Pent looked relived.
