Mind Over Alter
Chapter 2: Little Girl Little Girl
I'm going to do as many chapters of this as I can before I hit a writers block. So sorry but I'm going to have to wait a little on my ff The Fox and the Hound. I just want to jot this down while its still fresh in my head.
Hope you enjoy.
" HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO A CHILD," Ryuho yelled at the man.
" She's not a child, that one, is a monster," he said with a grin.
Mimori did what her instincts told her.
She ran up to the girl with no concern about her safety from the electrical cords and she tries to break them.
ZAP
The moment Mimori touches the cords, she was jolted with the electricity.
Mimori fell back from the power and was shivering.
" Miss Kiryu are you all right," yelled one of the HOLD members.
Mimori did not answer. She got up, took a knife and began cutting the cord.
" Miss Kiryu, you're being unreasonable, you'll die from the electricity," Ryuho yelled.
Mimori still persevered.
The cord snapped from the cutting and the girl fell to the bottom of the truck.
Mimori removed the cord and put her jacket on the little girl.
" She looks like she's four or five, how can anyone do such a thing to a child," Mimori questioned, saying more to herself then to anyone else.
It was true.
The girl was probably 3 feet tall. She had black hair that went up to the bottom of her chin. She had a fair complexion. The girl was skinny though, and was in rags. Her eyes, you could not tell, because they were closed.
Scheris finally came onto the scene to see Mimori holding the little girl with what looked like to her Ryuho acknowledging her.
" Ryuho," Scheris said in joy.
" Not now Scheris, this little girl was jolted with electricity and is in serious condition, she needs medical attention, stat," Ryuho said hurriedly.
Mimori nodded and ran to the van to hopefully save the little girl.
The mission was over. They found their alter user, but more importantly, they found a little girl, who was claimed to be the ultimate weapon.
Now everyone was packed up the with alter user tied securely. And the little girl in bed.
" TELL ME, WHY WERE YOU TORTURING A CHILD," Ryuho yelled.
" Because, she needs to stay unconscious, wouldn't want her to destroy the world," he said laughing as though the funniest joke was said.
" She's just a toddler, she doesn't even look like she knows how to eat on her own, and that's the only reason you can come up with," Scheris interjected.
" As far as I'm concerned she's just a two-bit street rat, with power beyond you imagination," the man said with the eyes of a demon.
Ryuho lost his patience and punched the man. Scheris kicked his for the street rat comment. It reminded her of her days before HOLY.
" Power or not, what makes you believe you have the authority to harm a child, what kind of power would make you think it be okay to harm her," Mimori said calmly.
The man had never had a question like that asked.
So he didn't know how to respond to the well-educated Mimori.
He was confused. Mimori's simple question made him so confused he would not speak, he couldn't even bring himself up to grin, he just played that question over and over again in his mind.
" Minari, what did you do to the guy, he just seemed to have frozen," Cougar asked. Examining the guy.
" It was just a simple question, I suppose he couldn't answer it," Mimori replied. Not taking her eyes off the girl even for a second.
" Well whatever you did I like the results, he was creeping me out," Scheris said.
"Mimori stroked the bangs of the girl. She checked her pulse, and pressed her ear against the girl's chest to check for a heartbeat.
" She's so far okay, it's strange, thought, if she's been electrocuted to many times, her heart should have irregular beating, but its just fine," Mimori said aloud.
" We'll look into that later, as soon as get to holy, put her into the…" Ryuho trailed off. Suddenly seeing the little girl's eyes open.
She had silver eyes. Eyes that looked pure.
She slowly got up and turned to Mimori.
She tilted her head as if asking, who are you?
Mimori noticed this. " I'm Mimori Kiryu, you can call me Mimori, what's your name," Mimori answered.
The girl did not answer.
Instead she looked at her surroundings.
She was in a truck. With a lot of machinery. A pretty black haired lady was by her side. She was in a bed. There was a strange man with orange hair in a weird style leaning against the wall.
And there was a man with green hair and red eyes, with a girl with blue hair, they were next to…
Next to…
The little girl went instinctively to Mimori, and held her tight, burying her head into Mimori's chest. Screaming.
She was afraid of the man.
" If she's such a monster why is she afraid of you," Ryuho snapped.
The man got out of thought a realized that the girl was awake.
His eyes of greed returned and he smirked evilly at the girl.
He tried to jolt to Mimori. But Mimori held firm and held the girl tight trying to protect her.
When Mimori opened her eyes. Zetsuei was between her and the man.
" That's far enough," Scheris announced like she did all the work.
And without a second thought, Zetsuei threw the man to the back of the truck. Knocking him unconscious.
" Its all right, he won't hurt you," Mimori comforted.
The little girl looked up. But before she could say anything. She fell unconscious again.
" Looks like the sight of the man was too much for her," Cougar stated.
Mimori put the girl back into bed, and they were on there way to HOLY headquarters.
