Disclaimer: I don't own the characters from Tomb Raider games of Movies. I don't own the place names, but the plot is very much mine.
Thank you for reviewing and I really do mean it.
Tombrider: Fanfiction.Net is totally free for the authors and I think the writing space isn't limited also. There's a certain size the chapters can be but I think that's it. At least I haven't had any problems with space yet.
Please keep on reviewing.
Cruelty of Nature
She stormed out of the hotel to the street muttering to herself. Only the cold air made her realize that she she really was outside the building and wasn't wearing any jacket. She had stormed down the stairs and the hotel's lobby like she had been asleep knowing she would never wake up. This day like the two weeks preceding it had been like a nightmare come true but even in the darkness she had seen light. Not in the form of angels or anything supernatural. To her his precence had been enough encouragement and that's why looking at him lying on that hospital bed so helpless had hurt her. He had been the only thing that had kept her going in addition to her want to avenge Werner.
She breathed in deeply. He had been there and now he wasn't. It was that simple. He had disappeared like the earth itself had opened its greedy mouth and swallowed him. Where could've he gone? She had sent his wallet to her place so he couldn't leave the country. He couldn't leave the country. She hadn't thought about it that way before. If something had happened to her besides being captured what could've he done? She didn't know much about the border controlling of Prague but one thing they surely wanted was to see a passport or at least some kind of identification. Now that she started to think of it it hadn't been very wise of her to send his wallet away. What if someone had opened the package and it never made to England?
Only voice that pierced her thoughts was the crunching of snow under her feet. The voice of thousands of unique snowlakes crushing together and becoming one.
Suddenly a black car drove down the street she was walking on. It had black glasses on it that prevented people seeing in the vehicle. It stopped right outside the hospital and to Lara's shock she noticed the man stepping out of the car. How could she forget the blond hair and though she couldn't see them the icy blue eyes. Those orbs were the first so cold ones Lara had seen and they alone made her loose her faith in life. Something that had created creautures like the nephilim had to be crooked to the core. She wanted to believe otherwise but the thought didn't leave her alone. All the beauty and hope the little word life had once held had vanished like it had never existed. Vanished because of the coldness in those eyes. Inhumanity existed there and Karel's eyes were its lair. It laid down there hidden from the world preparing for reaching out and conquering it.
They hadn't noticed her standing there. They hadn't even looked around. When the four of them got out of the car they marched as one in the hospital knowing that they would find what they were looking for in the building. All the other men accompaning him were taller than Karel but still looked like his pets. They would propably jump after him in a well had he done it before them. Lara would've found the thought funny if she hadn't known who the men accompaning Karel were or better said who their mother was. Lara's thought's ventured for a moment to the pale woman standing there seeing nothing. It must've hurt more than any human being could imagine and she couldn't feel anything but sympathy towards the woman who had brought these vile creatures into existence.
When she woke from her thoughts they were alreydy inside the hospital. They hadn't seen her because they had expected her to be sitting next to Kurtis' bed while Konstantin was gnawing his fingernails and walking in circles. For once Lara was pleased that there was a human part in Karel as well even though it had been consumed by the darkness of the creature which was in control. She sprinted up the street reaching the hotel in no time. The receptionist yelled something after her but the message didn't reach her ears. Everything else but running away seemed to be a trivial detail at the moment. She dug the room key from her pocket trying not to lost hold of it. Her hands where shaking when she tried to fit the key into the lock and that's when it fell.
Konstantin was brought back from the pleasant world of sleep in which he had finally managed to succumb after Lara left by a loud racket outside the door. He let some not so carefully picket words escape his lips before "answering" the door. He hadn't ordered anything from room service and even if he had he thought they didn't serve any other rooms than the suites. Slowly he opened the door and seeing Lara criuched in the floor made his eyes fly open from surprise. Slightly amused look took over his face but was guickly swept away when his eyes met Lara's. He couldn't define what he saw in them. The emotion behind her eyes was a mix of fear and some others he couldn't identify. She didn't say anything. Instead of it she jump jumped up and bursted in the room grabbing the few things they had with them.
"We have to leave...NOW!", she said to him sharply not letting her eyes be distracted from the door through which she hurried.
Konstantin looked at her almost in awe. There was a spark in her that had escaped from him long ago. He was going to ask her where she was going but no chance for the question arrived so he rushed out behind her.
"Where are you going!", he yelled after her like being afraid that no lesser sound would reach her.
"As far away as possible or at least somewhere he can't find us from!", she yelled back at him going down the stairs. She knew they had no time to waste. As soon as Karel heard there was no Kurtis in the hospital anymore he would be right on their trail. She could almost feel Karel's breath pn her neck and flinched at the thought.
"Who?", Konstantin yelled even though she would've heard it if he had spoken lees loudly.
She sighed. How stupid could the man be? "Who do you think!? The Easter bunny?", she yelled not even trying to hide the frustration she felt. She almost ran through the lobby but stopped dead on her tracks when leaving the building. Her eyes were fixated on the sight that greeted her infront of the hospital. Four men exited the building and without looking around stepped inside the car.
"What? Karel's here?", she heard Konstantin asking. Lara only nodded slowly re-entering the hotel and looking at Konstantin.
"We'd better use another exit", she stated.
