Since school wasn't that much of a pain today, and I wasn't so swamped with homework, I was able to write another chapter. Aren't you guys lucky that I felt like writing? ;p
Chapter 8: Airport
After a few silent minutes went by Amon asked Robin why she came along with him. What should I say? That a voice inside my head was telling me to come with him? I don't think so.. "I thought I would be of some company to you. Besides, she smiled slightly, I drank a lot of coffee at Harry's anyway so I doubt I could get any rest." Amon eyed her for a split second, almost as if he actually knew that she was lying, but he never said anything about it. The remaining of the ride to the airport was to no ones surprise silent.
Finally after a good long hour in the car they had reached the airport. As Robin got out and walked inside she couldn't help but felt the slightest hint of something. Huh? What was that? It felt like... a witch? No.. a power surge? Perhaps the witch is hiding somewhere near here? What ever the reason was, Robin kept her guard up and every once and awhile looked around her just to make sure the witch wouldn't try a sneak attack on them.
Robin abruptly stopped when the same little voice came back. What? Who is that? Could it be the witch? Whoever it is he or she is telling me that it is fluently to capture Mastuo. Why does that sound so compiling? Its as if it's a type of mind control? Yes! That's it! The witch is trying to control my mind, but why did he want me to come with Amon to the airport if he isn't to be leaving until a few days later? Could he perhaps want his powers back? Or does he permanently want my craft?
Before Robin could speak any of this to Amon there was suddenly a load explosion heard outside. Amon quickly turned back, and rushed outside with Robin close behind. That was until she abruptly stopped dead in her tracks. She blinked obviously confused that she couldn't move for some reason. Robin tried to yell for Amon to wait for her, but she realized that she couldn't speak either. What the..? Why can't I move or speak? What is going on? Is the witch doing this to me?! Amon!! Come back! In vain Robin tried to yell or scream, but nothing came out.
Robin suddenly stopped trying to speak or move when she heard a familiar laughing behind her. The familiar laughing seemed to have grown closer and closer to her until Robin could feel the other persons breathing behind her neck. It sent a waves of unwanted shivers down her spine. Who ever the figure was, it slowly moved away from her and was now in front of her. Green eyes suddenly widen in shock at the person before her now.
It appeared to be Matsuo, but instead of the horrid man that looked like a unwanted homeless person, now there stood before her a man wearing a well dressed black suit with matching shoes, his awful skin was now crystal clear, and he no longer held the smell of alcohol and vomit on his person. What? How could he have changed his appearance so quickly? Did he acquire another power?
Matsuo smiled manically at Robin, "Why Robin, I'm hurt you aren't happy to see me. After giving you that wondrous gift of mine, this is how you repay me? Hmm?" Somehow the ability to speak had come back to Robin but instead of answering his question she loudly began shouting Amon's name hoping that he would hear her. That was until the witch had retaken her speech and was now looking crudely at her.
"Shame on you Robin, using your only able time to speak on someone who can't even hear you, nor would want to come back and save you," he smiled evilly at her. This angered her greatly to the point Matsuo could almost feel the slightness of heat on his face as if she was trying to sit him on fire with her craft. He nodded his head as if it give him some sick satisfaction knowing that he had pressed the buttons to make her furious with him. "Well then Robin, since you seem to want to be back with Amon I will greatly grant your request." Robin didn't like the sound of his voice, something awful was going to happen and she knew that Amon and herself were going to be right in the middle of it all.
As Matsuo walked on ahead in front, Robin seemed to have slowly floated behind him, but not of course not by her own free will. Robin looked around the airport to see if anyone would have noticed, but they were all still to shaken from the explosion to notice. Robin bit her lip as she desperately tried to come up with some type of plan, but in the end nothing seemed to have worked. As they neared the front of the building Robin could now smell the smoke fumes, and blinked her eyes from time to time when they started to water.
She wondered why she had suddenly stopped so closely next to Matsuo, but because he was taller than she couldn't see what was going on. A part of Robin was slightly grateful, she didn't want to see whatever this evil witch could have done, but at the same time she knew she needed to see whatever it was. Matsuo then slowly moved out of her way and tilted his head slightly so Robin could see his face, "Go on Robin, I'm sure you'll just love the scene before you!"
Robin felt that the power that was keeping her legs bind was now gone, she slowly walked down the steps and looked at the wreckage that had been the explosion. Robin's eyes widen in shock and dismay at the sight, tears slowly starting forming as she collapsed to the ground. Finding that she also had her ability to speak back the first thing that leaped out of her throat was a painful crying noise. Matsuo smiled down at the now unstable Robin, perfect everything is happening just the way I planned it for! And there is still so much more to be done!
Mwhahaha! I have left it there for you all to ponder on what the sight of the wreckage actually is! Hehe... next chapter for sure will come this weekend!
