Chapter 3
I had panicked. Never would I have thought someone would come to this clearing at such an early hour...it had caught me by surprise. I should have been more careful and I know it, but I wasn't, so I'll just have to deal with the consequences. But back to the first question, who in the hell would come here at this time?
Flailing arms and legs brought me back from my thinking. Whoever this person is, he or she is strong. Although, mind you, not strong enough to get out of my grip. Compared to me, the person is a weakling. I'm not being conceited, for I speak the truth. Training and beatings have made me strong both emotionally and physically. The abusive behavior I have dealt with has made me strong. Life has made me strong. Stronger than the normal person, and a little too strong for my age.
After awhile of struggling under the water's surface, the kicks had ceased. That is about when I realized something that was vital if I wanted to stay alive; I needed to breathe. Swimming to the water's top, carrying the unconscious body along with me, I took a long drag of the morning's crisp air. Regaining my breath, I swam to the shore and pulled the limp body up.
I looked around to the other side of the lake to find my clothes piled up. That was just my luck; to come up on the wrong side. I dislike being out in the open when naked. It makes me feel vulnerable, and I hate feeling vulnerable because it causes me to feel weak, and I absolutely despise feeling that way.
Cursing mentally as I sighed aloud, I walked quickly to where my clothes were piled. I was going to wait until I was dry to put them back on, but that wasn't an option now that I had been intruded upon. Also, this means I will have to leave, for if one person came, that means others could come, and I cannot take the chance; it is too risky.
Pulling the pants onto my wet legs, the fabric clung to them making it highly annoying to put on. After the pants, came my shirt. I slipped it over my head and onto the top part of my body. The shirt had been thoroughly soaked by my dripping hair. If I get lucky, I will find another clearing or something where I can lay in the sun and dry off, but that won't happen because I don't have luck.
From the corners of my eyes, I saw the stirring of the unconscious form. It wasn't waking, but it was moving nonetheless, which, in the end, means it is close to awaking. I walked back over to the form. Raven hair was dripping small droplets of water to the ground; as was the rest of the body. A large puddle had already formed around the figure. I took into notice the extraordinarily long rope of hair that had been wrapped into a fine silk. I bent down and turned the body onto its back. I gasped. He was male, and a handsome one at that. Of course, he would look a lot better if he got some color back into his face. The smooth, tanned skin was slightly paled, but not too badly. His lips were almost white from the cold. He shivered. I snapped back from observing the boy.
I stood up from my crouched position and looked back down at him. He was adorned in the finest silk, although it seemed to be a mere slave's outfit. It was too ordinary to be that of the wealthy. The boy must belong to the emperor, and yet, even that seemed wrong. He just seemed out of place as a servant. That was nonsense. The emperor could have anyone as his slave, even a creature as beautiful as this. And, being the most beautiful slave I have seen, it isn't all that surprising that he wears clothing of that quality.
The boy stirred in his sleep again. Shit, I must've been thinking longer than I thought. I was about to turn away when I noticed the boy's eyes slowly fluttering open. They closed groggily before they had opened fully. I slowly turned back towards him and watched his movements. He lifted his arm to cover his eyes as he coughed up water that he swallowed while struggling with me.
This would take too much time that, unfortunately, I do not have. I grabbed him by his silk top and pulled him up easily. Golden eyes snapped open as he gave a loud yelp of surprise. Staring transfixed at his gorgeous, cat-like orbs, I snarled. His eyes were wide with fear and surprise.
"Wh-who are you?!" His voice was music to my ears. It was so soft and melodious.
"That is not of your concern, but who you are is important to my well- being."
"I will not tell you who I am if you do not tell me of whom you are. I am not stupid like most simpletons are!" He talks sophisticatedly. He must have had an education. That is more than most people can say.
"Do you work for the emperor?" His eyes widened, "What is your name?"
"I am no slave, if that is what you are asking. And, I have already told you of the answer to your second question. I will not tell of whom I am until you tell of whom you are."
"If you are no slave of the emperor, than you must be of a wealthy family, because, if not, you would not be wearing clothing of such fine silk...unless you are a thief."
"I am no thief! What do you take me for?"
"Ah, but I cannot think of anything else because I know not who you are. You will not tell me."
"That is all very true, but I still will not tell you of whom I am."
"Why not? I do not see any harm in doing so, for all I want is to know your name."
"Alright, maybe we can compromise. I will not tell of whom I am until you tell me of whom you are, correct?"
"That is what you say, yes. What is the compromise?"
"Put me down and I may tell you." I looked him with amusement glinting in my eyes. No one has been able to beat me at word games, and I am not going to start losing now. I nodded and set him onto the soft grass.
"Now, tell me of your idea." I folded my arms.
"If you tell me your first name, I shall tell you of mine. That way, we will not be giving out any...valuable information."
"Why is it that I have to give out my name first?"
"You do not strike me as anyone important."
"Than why do you care of who I am?"
"I do not, but you care of who I am, so I do not see any reason why you would not want to go along with my deal."
"Fine by me. My name is Kai, and yours?"
"I am Rei, although I cannot say that it has been a pleasure meeting you." Rei...that sounds familiar. Then, it hit me. Rei Kon, the boy I am searching for.
"Oh, that is a shame, for I loved our little get together. It was...challenging, unlike most people."
"Really? Why do I not care? Oh, yes, of course. What you just said is useless to me."
"Why do you not come with me?" If it were anyone else besides me, they would laugh at the expression on Rei's face. He was apparently taken-aback by my sudden interest in him.
"You are highly forward, are you not?"
I chuckled. "Yes, yes I am."

And chapter 3 is finally here! What do ya know? Yes, my computer has been completely screwed for the past forever, but that doesn't give me any excuse, does it? No, I didn't think so. Well, anyhow, most of this chapter is a conversation, as you could tell, but I was hoping for a slight bit of humor to be in it...was it funny at all? Probably not. Well, you know the drill! RxR!!
