Author Note: Hey…I updated…be happy. I was thinking about it this morning (ahem…11:17am) when I woke up and thought about my plot, something I haven't done in…what…6 months? So, I have come to a conclusion. I am nearing the end of my fanfiction days, and I want to blow out all my good ideas on this, so for anyone that has read WHEN ALL'S BEEN SAID AND DONE, the 'redo' of that is going into this. You'll see what I mean. Please don't flame me for this, you'll see at the bottom.
Chapter…is it 8? Pursued
With a splintering crack, the fence tumbled into the water. Aion's twitching form was visible under the water as the girls covered themselves up with bath robes. They weren't naked, however, though they were only clothed in a sopping wet towel around themselves. Yes, I think a bath robe would be appropriate. Chrono backed up onto the ledge to avoid the floating debris that was now contaminating the once crystal clear, mint-smelling water. It was the bath house's rules that no one be completely naked in this area, so all of them had on either shorts or swimming trunks.
His hair clung to his back as the moisture around him formed fog. His body heat now rose in steaming swirls off of him, his temperature gone up from the water and from the pains now racking his body. He did his best to ignore them, however, and watched as the ladies proceeded to pummel Aion into a bloody pulp. He brushed off the blood from his lips and pulled his feet out of the water. Vid and Jenai had gotten out as well, though were hooting at the girls as they jumped around. As expected, they were the next targets of their wrath. Chrono laughed, though proceeded to move himself further back from the excitement. He didn't want to be hurt, or for Rosette to discover that he was still coughing up blood. His body screamed its pain as he sat down on the sopping wet concrete. He felt sudden exhaustion come over him as he let his head rest against his shoulder.
His head hurt and felt like lead as he let his eyes drift closed. It almost felt like his body was falling asleep…
Somewhere in the back of his mind he felt a hand wrap around his throat and pull him up into the air, but he was too tired to care. He could hear the splashes and laughs move aside to replace screams and frantic footsteps. He heard a voice laugh as the hand tightened around his throat, nearly suffocating him.
He felt another hand push on his shoulder blade strongly, and he heard the bones crack and move aside as he felt the searing pain as the hand shot through his chest.
"Chrono! Wake up! No! Tovi let him go!" Rosette screamed as she ran towards him, blood soaking the concrete by this point.
'Rosette?' Chrono thought, hearing her voice and opened his eyes. Tovi's hand had shot through his chest and was now holding his heart in his hand. Blood was sopping everywhere and he grimaced in pain, finally feeling the effects of having his shoulder bones crushed and his heart ripped out, albeit a few veins.
He tried to move, but the pain in his limbs stopped him dead. His feet was a good foot off the floor and he could hear Rosette beating Tovi's arm frantically. He easily knocked her aside with an evil laugh.
"Silly nun, you can't save him now. I'll crush his heart, the only way to kill the Sinner of Anger…The Immortal Sin!"
"No! Chrono!" Rosette screamed as he turned his head towards her. She had tears on her cheeks with blood on her legs and hands and a fleck on her cheek. She was on her knees on the bloody pavement.
"Rosette…run…I'll meet you again…just run…" He gasped out as his breath got shorter and shorter.
"NOOOO! CHRONO! DON'T LEAVE ME!" She yelled as Aion picked her up and fled. Her last sight of Chrono was of Tovi crushing his heart in his hand with his sadistic laughter ringing through the air, seeming to chase them away from the horrifying scene.
Approximately 4 hours later: Location unknown: POV Tovi's:
"You'll be a lovely pet, Chrono. You will do my bidding and destroy my enemies and everyone else I say to. You are my slave." Tovi said, talking animatedly to the lifeless body of Chrono, who was lying on a steel table in what looked like a dungeon. Tovi was stroking Chrono's cheek gently as he talked.
"You will serve ME until the day you die." His eyes glowed red as he laughed a deep, throaty and menace-filled laugh that resounded all throughout the cold, stony walls of the chamber.
"Awaken my pet, rise up…" He whispered in eager anticipation.
Red eyes flickered open, looking soulless and abandoned as his body slowly raised itself.
End chapter 8, Pursued
Well, was it good? Sorry about so long of a delay. I'm a lazy butt. Can anyone guess the scene I took this from? No one? Well you can guess. Hope it was okay and sorry it's all glitchy cause I'm not going through this so please pardon mistakes!
