Chapter Sixteen

Shuichi's POV

Yuki manages to get us outside. I look around seeing that we are not too far from the city. Well at least I can see part of the city through the trees. We're far from there though. "Let's get out of here first before I look at your injuries," Yuki says holding me close as he runs through the forest. I would get down and run for myself, but I fear that I would fall behind. My weight doesn't seem to be affect Yuki's speed.

He flies through the trees avoiding the branches and the roots that would cause us to slow or fall. He feels like an angel now…his skin is warm and soft holding me close to him…protecting me from harm. I want to spend forever with him…free to live my life without fear. I don't want to fear these people, but I know by running away they will remain free to torture my thoughts. I don't want that. "Yuki," I say looking up at him.

"What?" he asks not breaking his eyes from where he's going.

"I don't want to live afraid."

"If that was an alarm telling them that we have escaped, then they will be following us. All we have to do is get some place where the police will be able to help us. Then, you won't have to live in fear. I promise."

I look at my hands and wrap them around his chest pulling myself closer to his body. "I trust you," I say closing my eyes. I want to sleep, but that won't be the wise thing to do right about now.

I feel Yuki turn as the street lights blind me. I put my face into Yuki's chest shielding them. "That's so bright."

"That means we are in the city now. We just have to make sure they are following us and get the police," Yuki says moving into a dark alleyway.

He sets me down and looks over my body. "I'm alright," I say trying to not alarm him.

"No you look like you're in bad shape," he says checking the cut on my head along with my chest and my legs. "You got some bad bruises. I want to get you to the hospital as soon as I can."

"But I want to go home," I say wishing we were sitting on his couch watching television or something other than running for our lives.

"I know you do, but you have to get checked up. You're in bad shape," he says just as I hear something like a firework go off.

I hiss reaching down to my side feeling this pain like you wouldn't believe. "Yuki," I say softly.

"Oh my God," he says picking me up and running with me. The pain is so bad…I don't know what to do or what is going on around me.

"Yuki," I cry holding my side.

"Just hang on, Shuichi," I'm getting you to the hospital now.

Suddenly, Yuki stops as I look up through my foggy vision. I see all these people blocking the way Yuki was going to run. He turns around to run back the direction we came from only to stop again. There's people everywhere. Yuki backs up into a wall. "If you come back with us, he'll live," a voice says from our right. I look over seeing Ralph walking with the others.

"No," Yuki says firmly. "You'll kill him anyway." Yuki removes one hand from me balancing me with just one hand. I don't see where it goes or what it does but I feel myself falling backwards with Yuki through a door.

"Are you okay?" he asks looking at me while standing back up. There's pounding on the door that Yuki is holding shut with his feet.

"Yea," I say standing up still holding my side. I lock the door as Yuki gets up quickly sliding the nearest heavy object up against the door.

"Let's go then," he states lifting me back up again. I'm sure they are surrounding the building by now. But if we are faster than then, we can manage to get out and run far away.

Yuki carefully opens another door and looks outside. I feel him moving again running out of the building and down the street. My grip isn't as strong as it was when we left our prison. My breathing is increasing. I can feel blood flowing out of my wound. "Yuki," I barely spit out feeling the cold air blowing across my face. I start to shiver as I fight to keep a hold of the reality that I'm in now.
