Chapter 4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The rain was coming down on the roof a little harder now. The door was open.
A little boy was in the doorway and looked around. "Mom, Dad? Can I sleep in your bed?"
No answer.
Lightning flashed from the window outside. The boy jumped a little. He went closer to the bed. He was about a few feet way when lighting flashed outside.
He ran under the bed. After a while, he looked out under the bed. Seeing that the coast was clear, he came out and started to shake his mom. "Mom, can you move over? I want to sleep in your bed, I'm scared."
Still no answer.
He was getting frightened. He went over to the other side. He shook his dad "Please dad, wake up. I'm really scared. I want to sleep in your bed. Please"
He was expecting some movement but nothing. His voice was in level of a shout "Dad, please wake up! I'm really scared!" Tears began to fall from his eyes. "Someone wake up!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nathan screamed and bolted up in his bed. Tears were streaming down his face "Why did they have to leave me?"
***
Nathan was walking to the castle when he saw Charles on the way. He ran up to see him
"How's it going?"
Charles smiled "Can't complain. How's life at the Castle?"
"Great. The king likes me."
They continued to walk in silence. Charles walked in front of Nathan and stopped him
"You had that dream again did you?"
Nathan nodded.
"You need to let go. It's a sad thing that parents died when you were young, but you need to move on. Don't dwell on the past."
"Charile-san, we have company."
"Man, you're ruining the moment. I'm trying to be the enlightenment in this fic."
Nathan pointed to the really big men who were blocking their way "The moment was already ruined when tweedle-dum times two came along."
"Where are you going, Masuto?" One of the asked
Charles stepped in front of him "Leave him alone."
"What, you have a bodyguard for you now? Why don't you speak for yourself?" the other one said.
Nathan sighed "Back off. I'm not in the mood for this. Now if you'll excuse--"
The same guy grabbed his shoulder. "You're not going anywhere. At least in one piece" Suddenly he recieved a blow to the stomach.
Nathan doubled over from the blow. Then he recieved a punch in the face. He tasted blood in his mouth. Everything was still for a moment. "Thanks a lot for doing that. Now I'll return the favour." He ran toward the person and landed him a right in the jaw.
The man head flew back from the impact. He landed a uppercut to Nathan but was unable to withstand the blows that Nathan was giving him.
Nathan gave him a kick that sent him flying to the ground. He looked at the other guy. "You wanna try, go ahead"
The other guy turned around and ran. The other guy groped the ground blindly. Then he saw a knife someone discarded and smiled evilily.
Nathan came over and kicked him a few times in the back. The man screamed out and seemed to stop moving. He stopped to wipe the blood from his face. He spat out some of the blood from his mouth.
This was the opprunity the guy needed. He got up and hid the knife in his left hand. He extended his right "I'm sorry about the fight. No hard feelings?"
Nathan hesistated for a moment "No hard feelings." He extended his hand to shake. The two men shook hands for a while, then Nathan was drawn close to him.
He smiled eviliy. "You always were gullible, Masuto" His right hand came up and stabbed Nathan in the shoulder.
Nathan screamed in pain. He tried to grab his shoulder and the pain intensified. The guy kicked him in the same spot of the wound and ran away. He fell on the ground.
Charles saw Nathan on the ground and ran to his side. "What happened?"
Nathan grunted "Help me."
Charles saw the blood through his jacket. "Take off your jacket." Nathan nodded and slipped off his jacket. "The bastard did a number on you." He helped Nathan up to his feet. He looked around and saw the castle up ahead. "Okay. We're going to the castle" He ripped off part of his jacket. "Nate, lift up your arm"
Nathan winced as he lifted up his arm. Charles came and he wrapped the strip around his shoulder "This will have to do for now," he said "until we get to the castle. Let's go"
Nathan coughed up some blood. He started to run for a little bit until he collasped on the road.
Charles ran up to him. He started to shake him. "Buddy, wake up" There was no response from him. Nathan lifted him up and put him on his shoulder. He grabbed his arms and wrapped them around his neck. "Hang on!" He started to run to the castle.
A/N: That took a really long time to type. The cameo will have to be in the next chapter.
Eudial: Can I tell them who it's going to be?
Black Ninja Star: No.
Eudial: But---
Black Ninja Star: The answer's still no. I didn't plan out this chapter properly. They'll just have to wait until the next one. You too, Eudial.
Eudial: *grumbles*
Tell me what you think of this chapter, it's my first time writing a fight scence. Later!
