Together Again

Chapter 8- Saving Laura
Laura opened her eyes. She noticed that she was in some room. She was on a bed. All the sudden, everything came flooding her mind of the battle with Allan. She felt her chest, and she saw blood on her hand. The door opened, and Herve walked in with first aid stuff and a blue kimono.
"What do you want? Why am I here?' Laura asked coldly.
"I'm here to clean your chest, and the reason why you are here is because Allan wants you."
"Leave me alone. I will clean my chest."
"Allan wants to me to clean up your chest. I also need your clothes so I can clean them up."
"I will do it myself." Laura said. Allan walked into the room.
"What is going on here? Herve, why are you not cleaning Lady Laura's wound?" Allan asked.
"Don't touch me. I will clean my own wounds." Laura said.
"You heard Lady Laura. Let's leave so she can change and clean up her wound. I brought you a kimono. There is bathroom over there. There are more clothes in the closet by the bathroom. There are also towels in there. I'm sorry if Herve was bugging you." Allan said before he left. Herve followed behind him.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laura's P.O.V.
"Allan seems different. Could this be a trick to make me like him? I don't know what Allan wants with me, but he is trying to make me happy. As I cleaned my wound, I noticed it was infect really bad. When I was done cleaning my wound, I got dress in the kimono. I started to wash my shirt to clean off the blood. My chest felt like it was on fire. I heard a knock on the bedroom door. I stopped what I was doing and went to opened it. When I opened the door, I saw Allan out in the hallway. He wants me to take a walk with him. I know if I don't do what he says, he might try to kill me, so I said yes that I will walk with him. I hope Odd and the others hurry to find me."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Would you like to take a walk with me in my garden?" Allan asked.
"Yes, I would like too."
"I'm sorry for the battle, but I need you."
"Why do you need me?"
"I need you to help me to get the all the power. The legend says the power of dark, and the power of light needs to come together, so the power of the world can show up." Now, they were in the garden. Allan picked a flower.
"Is that the reason you want me?"
"Yes and no. I need you to help me, but also, I want you to be my wife. I can give you anything your heart wants." Allan as he putted a flower behind her right ear.
"I'm sorry, but I can't be your wife. I'm already promised to someone else."
"You mean the boy with a purple spot in his hair? They are all dead." Allan said as he looked at Laura. Laura couldn't believe her ears.
"No, that is not true. I know that they are alive. I can feel them."
"Then the rumors are true about you."
"What rumors?"
"Rumors that said that you can feel people and you have great powers. I had seen it for myself if the rumors were true. They are true."
"Is that another reason you want me?"
"Laura, you have special powers that are stronger than anything. I know you were the one who sealed my brother up. I want to thank you for that."
"He was bugging me."
"That is another reason that I have to have you. You are special. That is what I want."
"Well, I'm sorry, but as soon as my boyfriend, my brother, and my friends come, I'm out of here."
"You are not going anywhere." Allan said in a harsh voice.
"You can't tell me what I can or can't do. I don't take orders."
"You will do what I say! Got that?" Allan said as he held Laura's shoulders tight. His eyes were red. Every time Laura moved, Allan would tighten his grip on her shoulders.
"Let me go. You are hurting me." Laura said crying. Allan snapped out of his daze once he realized that he was hurting Laura. He let Laura's shoulders go. Laura fell to the ground.
"I'm so sorry Laura. I mean to. Please forgive me." Allan said as he bended down to help Laura. Laura looked scared of him. Still tears in her eyes, she wrapped her arms around herself.
"Who are you really?" She asked scare.
"You know who I am. I'm so sorry." Allan said. He held his hand out to Laura. Laura slowly grabbed it. Allan helped her up.
"I think I ready to return to the room." Laura said.
"It is your room. I will walk you back." Allan said.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Are you sure this is the way, Nick?" Aelita asked. The gang was in a tunnel under the castle.
"I know my way around this castle. If I know Allan, he put Laura in the room next to his room. Her room has a secret door that leads to tunnel. Here, take these." Nick said as he handed the gang the cloaks.
"What are these for?" Jeremy asked.
"They make you invisible." Nick said.
"Thanks" Yumi said. The gang came to a fork in the tunnel.
"That way leads to the spears, and this way leads to Laura's room." Nick said as he pointed to the right.
"Let's split up. Jeremy, Aelita, Ulrich, and Yumi will go get the spears, while Nick and I go get Laura." Odd said.
"I'm not letting you have all the fun, Odd. I will come with you." Ulrich said.
"Then Yumi, Jeremy, and Aelita will go get the spears." Odd said.
"You all be careful." Yumi said.
"We will." Ulrich said before he kissed Yumi on the lips. Nick handed a map to Yumi.
"Use this. It will help you." Nick said.
"We will meet you here." Ulrich said.
"Ok" Jeremy said. The three left Nick, Odd, and Ulrich behind.
"Let's go." Nick said.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laura lay on the bed. She was crying. Her chest hurt badly. She had cleaned it again, but it was still infected.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laura's P.O.V.
"I wish Odd and the others hurry up. I'm starting to not feel well. My chest hurts. It has a burning feeling. I miss them. I searched the room for a way out, but I couldn't find any way. I miss the Odd and the others. I hope they get here soon." Laura fell asleep.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nick pushed a door opened. Odd and Ulrich could tell that it has been opened in years due to all the cobwebs. Once the door was opened, Nick walked into the room first.
"It is safe." Nick said after he made sure the room was ok. In the middle of the room, there was a bed. Odd could believe his eyes. On the bed, Laura laid sleeping. Odd and Ulrich rushed up to her. Odd began to shake her a little. Laura opened her eyes. She saw Odd.
"I knew that you would come to get me." Laura said as she hugged Odd. Odd gave her a small kiss on the lips.
"We get going." Nick said.
"What is he doing here?" Laura asked.
"It is ok. He helped us." Ulrich said.
"Thanks to Nick, he led us to you." Odd said.
"Thanks Nick." Laura said.
"Can you walk?" Odd said.
"Yes" Laura said as she stood up. The pain in her chest was too much. She passed out in Odd's arms.
"What happen?" Ulrich said.
"She must have passed out." Odd said.
"What will cause her to pass out?" Ulrich asked.
"I don't know. Let me look at her wound." Odd said as he putted Laura back on the bed. He left the band aid up. He saw her wound infected.
"What is wrong?" Nick asked.
"Her chest in infected." Odd said.
"Let's go." Ulrich said. He found Laura's clothes. Odd picked Laura up in his arms, and Ulrich, Nick and Odd left the room through the secret door.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"How are suppose to take all the spears?" Yumi asked.
"Laura taught me a cool spell." Aelita said.
"What kind of spell?" Jeremy asked.
"It is a moving spell. Watch. Move these spears to the ship." Aelita said. All the sudden, the spears disappeared.
"WOW!" Jeremy said.
"Let's get out of here." Yumi said. Jeremy, Aelita, and Yumi ran down the tunnel.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I don't see them." Ulrich said as he peeked around the corner.
"They will be coming. Don't worry." Odd said. Ulrich turned to Odd.
"Not to worry? How can I? They maybe got caught. They might be in a battle." Ulrich said.
"Who is in a battle?" Yumi asked. She stood behind Ulrich.
"Ulrich was worry about you." Odd said.
"I told you I will be ok." Yumi said before she gave Ulrich a kiss on the lips.
"Let's get back to the ship." Jeremy said.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allan walked to Laura's room. He knocked on the door. No answer. Allan opened the door. He walked to the bed. He found Laura not there. He looked in the bathroom, and she wasn't there.
"HERVE!" Allan yelled. Herve came running into the room.
"Yes, Sir."
"Laura is gone."
"WHAT!"
"Some how she got away. Let's go find her. You go take the left side of the castle, and I will take the right side."
"Yes, sir."
"She got to be in the castle. There is no way she could get out. Let's go." Allan said as he left the room.
"I know who help them get Laura. It was Nick." Herve thought. He left the room.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Laura lay on her bed. She knew that she was in her room. She opened her eyes to see Odd, Nick, and the gang looking at her.
"Hi everyone." Laura said.
"How are you feeling?" Ulrich asked.
"My chest hurts, but I'm happy to be out of there. Thanks for saving me." Laura said.
"We stick together." Jeremy said.
"I want to specially thank Nick for helping us. Without his help, we would never found you." Odd said.
"Thanks Nick for helping." Laura said.
"No problem. I'm glad that I could help." Nick said.
"How can we pay you back?" Laura asked. Now she was leaning against her headboard.
"You don't have to repay me. It is my way to pay you back for all the trouble that I cause, but I only want one thing." Nick said.
"What is it?" Laura asked.
"I want to join your team. I want to fight with you." Nick said.
"Yes, you can." Laura said.
"That means you have to go through our test." Odd said in a joking mood.
"What kind of test?" Nick asked worry.
"You will have to wear a dress for two days." Odd said.
"No thanks." Nick said.
"That is the only way to join the team." Odd said.
"Then that means that you got to wear one too." Ulrich said.
"Me in a dress, no way." Odd said. Everyone laughed. Laura's laugh was replaced with a yawn. Ulrich saw this.
"Let's go. Laura needs her rest." Ulrich said as he ushered everyone but Odd.
"Can you stay beside me?" Laura asked when everyone left.
"Yes, I will. You get some sleep, and I will be here when you wake up." Odd said. Laura smiled at him. Laura fell asleep.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Allan sat down on his throne. He was angry. He had look in the whole castle, and he couldn't find Laura.
"I don't know how you disappeared, but I will have you again." Allan thought.
