Chapter 25
Search and Destroy
She ran back into the familiar darkness of the building by means of the door she escaped from, gun at the ready in case Noah was still around and she should need it's protection against the little shit.
She turned her flashlight on, looking around in the faint light. No sign of Serenity.
"Where did you say her tracer was again?" She asked into the device, her wolf-like eyes scanning the near-by area.
"I can't tell you unless I know where you are."
"Damn." She cursed softly, walking along the wall until she reached the door that Ryou had pushed her through, a brief flashback of their kiss running through her head. "Looks like I'm going to backtrack to where I called break and see what I can find from there."
"Best of luck Maiyu." Yami said, his sincerity apparent even through the communicator.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She didn't know where she was going or why, all she knew was the terror of being trapped in Merrick's hands and the pain of being dragged along like a rag dog.
"Here we are." Merrick growled, throwing her into a dark room. "Don't worry little one." Merrick said cruelly, lighting a match and igniting the wick of a candle. "They won't find you here even if they can see the light.
"Why are you doing this?" Serenity asked, gathering what was left of her courage in this little act of defiance. "What the heck are you planning to do!"
"Can't even bring yourself to say hell, my, we are innocent." He chided, grabbing the small girl roughly and slamming her into the chair, securing her small frame with ropes.
"Please." She whispered, a single tear running down her cheek. "Please don't do this." She was only greeted with Merrick's cold laughter as he pulled out a knife from his belt.
"I can, sweetheart." He said calmly. "And I will. Now talk, what are Yami's plans for the war?" Silence, only more tears of fear running down the girl's face. "Fine then." He growled, flipping the knifes blade and running it across her shoulder, causing a scream of pain to tear from her throat and more tears of pain to run down her cheeks.
'Please, someone, help.' She thought desperately. 'Please.'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Maiyu looked down at the smashed communicator, picking up the parts and examining them.
"Yami, the communicator was definitely smashed by someone, now I just have to find Serenity herself."
"Right, do you see an indication of which direction she might have gone?" Maiyu looked around for a sec, her eyes moving to a single footstep left in a patch of dust.
"Yes." Was her only reply as she headed in the direction that the footstep lead her, knowing that she couldn't be far away.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"You really are an insolent little wench aren't you?" He asked, a cruel smile spreading over his face. "But we can fix that. Seeing as your unwilling to talk, I see no use in you." He raised his knife, the blade coming straight for her heart.
BANG!
The knife flew from his hand, landing on the ground some feet away.
"What the fuck?" He exclaimed, looking around. Maiyu stepped into the light from the shadows.
"MAIYU!" Serenity yelled, ignoring the pain in her shoulder for the moment.
"Hello Merrick." She said, raising her gun and pointing it at his heart. "Now, let her go." Merrick smirked.
"And what makes you think I'm going to do that?" She pulled the hammer of her gun down.
"Because you'll be dead if you don't."
"Such language from such a small girl." He replied, pulling out his own gun and pointing it at her head.
"Looks like it's down to a game of chicken." She said calmly. "Except I don't like games." She pointed her gun down to his ribs and fired. Merrick grunted, looking down at the wound. He was lucky that the bullet had just missed him, however he still had a pretty big scratch.
Maiyu ran to the chair, slamming her foot down on the ground, releasing the blades in her shoes. She cut the ropes, grabbing the younger girl's hand.
"Come on!" She yelled, running to the door, ducking as Merrick fired shots at them, occasionally turning around to return fire, nit bothering to look if she had hit him.
She ran and ran fast, navigating herself around the building by memory. Serenity was sobbing, the blood pouring down her shoulder, but Maiyu couldn't afford to stop.
"It's alright Serenity." She whispered. "I'm going to get you home to your brother." Weakly she nodded, still running, the blood splattering onto the floor in droplets. "Were almost there." Maiyu said as they approached the door that lead them to the exist.
Throwing herself into the door it burst open, the clean night air feeling fresh on their faces.
"Yami, were out, come get us, were at the side of the building. " She said, looking around for a moment.
"Right." He replied. "Were on our way, we'll be bringing the bikes with us."
"Ok." She answered, before sighing and leaning against the wall. "Were safe." She whispered. "Were safe."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Yami turned to the rest of the missionaries.
"Well, it looks like everything went according to plan." He said. "Now, were just going to grab the bikes and then were going to all get home and take a nice rest." The others nodded, going to retrieve the bikes when he saw Amaya come up behind him.
"I can't believe she actually did that." Amaya said, wincing as she looked down at her cuts.
"Are you alright Amaya?" He asked, she nodded with a small smile on her face.
"Nothing I won't live through. Do you think their ok?"
"I'm not sure, they may be, but the odds are against them having no injuries at all." She nodded and continued walking.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Maiyu looked down at Serenity who was leaning against the wall, her shoulder wrapped with some of Maiyu's clothes.
Her gaze shifted to the door, he gun ready in case any Daggers should pop their noses out when the roar of motorcycles reached her ears.
"Hop on!" Amaya yelled, gesturing for her to come, while Serenity went with Ming. Amaya revved the engine, following Yami, Demi, and Seto. They were on their way home.
A/N:
Well, there it is, hope you liked it! The next chapter will probably be a filler, full of Demi/Seto fighting, and Yami/Amaya fluff! Anyway, as always, please R&R!
