Odysseus
"I can't believe how late I am!" thought Tea as she glanced down at her watch while running through an alley at top speed "I just hope I don't get written up"
After running home and changing into her uniform, Tea raced right back out. After all "Von Schroeder's" had extremely strict rules about punctuality in order to keep their employees in line. If an employee was more than ten minutes late, they would recieve a verbal warning. If they were more than twenty minutes late, they they would be written up by the manager. If they were more than thirty minutes late, they they would dock their pay for the hour. Finally if an employee an hour late and didn't have a valid excuse, they would be automatically fired. Although Tea wasn't late enough to end up getting fired, she did risk getting written up. So in order to avoid this, she ran as quickly as her legs could carry her.
"I've only got five minutes to get there!" panted Tea as she finally came to a stop at an intersection and looked up at the "Von Schroeder's" building in the distance "I'm going to have to take a shortcut"
As soon as the light turned green, Tea jumped out onto the street and ran to the other side. She then headed straight into an alley that ran parallel to the street, and continued running. It was a good shortcut since there were no other pedestrians to slow her down. Much to Tea's delight she reached the end of the alley in about a minute and a half. Phew! Now I'm only a block away now...
"Lady Luck is definitely on my side today" said Tea as she took a moment to catch her breath "But today it's gonna be a little-"
POW
Before Tea knew what had happened, she was grabbed by the shoulder and struck across the face. The blow was so strong that it didn't give her any time to react. Suddenly her attacker grabbed her by the hair and slammed her against the wall. It was only then that she caught sight of the attacker and realized that it was a man. He was tall, unnaturally thin, his skin had a sickly greyish tinge, and his hair was long and very dirty brown hair. Overall the man looked like a zombie, and was absolutely the most frightening person Tea had ever seen. Oh God help me!
"You wretched little wench" hissed Odysseus as he suddenly wrapped his cold bony hands around Tea's neck as tightly as he could "I'LL KILL YOU!"
"HELP!" screamed Tea at the top of her lungs as she felt this lunatic tightening his grip around her neck "SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!"
SLAP
"SHUT UP!" screamed Odysseus after momentarily breaking his grip in order to slap Tea across the face as hard as he could "NO ONE'S GOING TO HEAR-"
Tea immediately kicked the man in the stomach, in an attempt to escape. It worked since the man reeled back for a second, which gave her time to run from the alley. Tea ran out onto the street and tried to get to the "Von Schroeder's" as quickly as she could. Suddenly she felt a strong blow from behind and realized that the man had just tackled her. They both fell roughly onto the sidewalk in front of Azure Inc, which eerily enough appeared to have a puddle of dried blood on it. Odysseus immediately stood up and pulled Tea up by the hair. Suddenly rapid footsteps were heard and two men immediately ran up to them...
"Tea?" cried Varon with a look of shock and anger when he realized that she was the one being attacked by this man "Let her go you bastard!"
"Let her go!" suddenly shouted Raphael who had heard Tea's desperate cries as he and Varon were returning to the building "I said let her go!"
"Make me!" hissed Odysseus as he defiantly bared his eerie gleaming white teeth and yanked Tea's head violently to the side "GO AHEAD MAKE ME!"
"Help me!" screamed Tea who was so terrified at that moment that she didn't know what else to do "Please help me!"
Suddenly Odysseus burst into insane laughter and pushed Tea in Raphael's direction. He then ran back in the direction of the alley, but Varon decided to follow him. The man was much too fast and managed to get away, but not before something fell out of his pocket. Varon growled in frustration, but decided to see what it was that the man had dropped. Much to his surprise he found himself looking down at three very old and extremely worn out photos. Although Varon didn't know who the people in these pictures were, something told him to hang on to them.
"There's something weird about these pictures" thought Varon as he walked back to where Raphael and Tea currently were "But they might be a clue as to who that bloke is"
"Are you sure you're alright?" asked Raphael as he saw just how violently Tea's body was trembling after what had happened "Do you want to go to a doctor?"
"I-I-I can't go anywhere.." said Tea with as she tried her hardest to keep from crying after the horrible ordeal she had just gone through "I have to go to work..."
"Ya wanna go to work sheila?" asked Varon as he too noticed just how nervous and distraught Tea seemed at that moment "Are ya sure ya don't wanna go home?"
It seemed that nothing Raphael or Varon said would make Tea change her mind. She refused to go home and insisted on going to work. Then again neither one realized that she had no choice, considering her financial situation. Despite her stubborn behavior, Raphael and Varon knew they couldn't just leave her alone. They couldn't just leave her alone after what happened, so they decided to walk her to "Von Schroeder's" to make sure she got there safely.
"Another fight?" muttered Amelda as he lay on his bed and looked at the fight breaking out on the talkshow that was currently on "I can't believe people think this is real"
After Raphael parked the car at the sidewalk, Amelda was feeling pretty dizzy but he tried to play it off. Unfortunately he was only able to take about two steps before the feeling intensified and he fell onto his knees. Raphael quickly pulled him up, but decided it would be best to carry him to the apartment. Once they were in the apartment, Varon quickly ran off into the kitchen and Raphael took Amelda to his bedroom. The moment his body touch the mattress, Amelda groaned since his ribs were aching. Luckily Varon walked in a few seconds later with a glass of water so he could take his medication. He began to feel much better shortly afterwards, so Raphael and Varon felt a little less worried about leaving him alone. Although they did tell home one last thing before leaving...
"Whatever you do, stay in bed" echoed Raphael's voice vividly in Amelda's memory "Remember that Dr. DeWinters says you need alot of rest right now"
"So that means no going out and wandering off like ya always do!"" added Varon's voice jokingly as it also echoed through Amelda's memory as if though he were there "I'll know if ya did mate!"
"How?"
"I have my ways...heheheh"
As they both finally exited the apartment, Amelda gave an amused little smile. Although it felt strange having Raphael and Varon fret over him like they did, he understood why they had done it. Although it had taken him awhile to accept it, he had no trouble doing so now. Raphael and Varon were his friends, and friends looked out for one another. In fact if either Raphael or Varon had been in the same situation, he knew he would have acted in the same way. So in order to respect his friends wishes, Amelda decided to stay put. Besides it's not like I really want to go anywhere right now...
"Well this is getting pretty boring" said Amelda halfheartedly as he raised the remote since he grew tired of the talkshow "Lets see what else is on"
Click
"We interrupt this regularly scheduled program to bring you a news bulletin" said a reporter with big thick glasses, thin moustache, and a bad toupee "Convicted felon and criminally insane-"
"Boring..." said Amelda who honestly wasn't really in the mood to see some last minute bulletin at all "Well time to see what's on another channel"
Click
"From Domino Maximum Security Penetentiary earlier this day" said an female reporter with a ridiculously large hoop earrings and a poofy perm "Authorities warn that he is extremely violent and a-"
"Why do I have a feeling this is on every channel?" asked Amelda as he quickly changed the channel in hopes of finding something else to watch "Well there's only one way to find out"
Click
"If you think you have seen this man please pay close attention" said an anchorwoman as she sat at the news desk with a puzzled look on her face "We're about to show you the most recent image of the suspect"
"And it looks like I was right..." said Amelda who raised the remote once again since he was determined to find something to watch "Now lets-What is this?"
At that moment the image of the suspect appeared and it was kind of disturbing. The man had long dirty brown hair, pale almost greyish skin, his teeth were clenched, and he had a look of insanity in his blue eyes. The anchorwoman continued to repeat the information, and this time Amelda did pay attention. Apparently the man had escaped from Domino Maximum Security Penetentiary's ward for the criminally insane. The man was extremely violent and would brutally attack anyone who came near him. It was for this same reason that the authorities were offering a reward of $100,000 for his capture.
"I don't think it'll be long before he's caught" said Amelda as he lowered his head a bit since he felt a little lightheaded due to the painkillers "Especially with the reward they're offering"
"So if you have information leading to the whereabouts of Odysseus Gardner" said the anchorwoman with a very nervous look on her face "Then-"
"Odysseus?" thought Amelda as his head suddenly snapped up and his grey eyes opened wide in surprise when he heard the name "Odysseus Gardner?"
"Please contact authorities immediately" said the anchorwoman as she put down the papers she had been holding "We now return to our regularly scheduled programming"
Even after the news bulletin was over, Amelda sat there with a baffled expression on his face. The name Odysseus was not exactly a very common name. In fact the only place Amelda had seen it was when he had read "The Odyssey". The only place he had actually heard it though, was in his dreams. Then again this was probably just some sort of unusual concidence. After all this Odysseus was obviously not the same one in his dreams. This man was middle aged and criminally insane, while the other was in his late twenties and sane.
"I'm also sure the Odysseus in my dreams doesn't exist" said Amelda as he looked over at his laptop which Varon had left on the nightstand "Or does he?"
The more Amelda thought about the dreams, the more uneasy he began to feel. After all he figured that Odysseus was nothing but a figment of his imagination, but what if he was wrong? What if Odysseus really did exist? After all he thought the Lady in Black was only a dream, but was quickly proven wrong. Not only was she real, but she was the person he had least suspected. Without further delay he grabbed his laptop and began a search for some possible answers. I won't rest until I find out more about Odysseus Gardner...
"I still can't stop thinking about what Joey told me" thought Serenity as she walked down the steps of Domino High School "Why would someone want to steal souls?"
After spending the day thinking about Joey's story, there were several things Serenity didn't understand. First of all how did this Varon guy have the ability to steal souls? Although Joey explained that he used a card called "The Seal Of Orichalcos", she still didn't understand. The second thing that Serenity wondered was why this guy was willing to steal souls. While it was true that he was stealing them, he was stealing them for a man called Dartz. Then again what would make a person willing to work for such a lunatic? These were all questions that Serenity wished she could have any answer to, but this would never happen. After all it's not like she would ever get to meet the infamous Varon that her brother had spoken of.
"Then again would I even want to meet this person?" thought Serenity as she observed the golden leaves falling down from the trees she passed "I can't even imagine what he'd be like"
"Serenity!"
"Huh?" said Serenity as she spun around when she heard her name half hoping to find herself looking up at Valon "Oh...hi Duke"
"Hey Serenity" said Duke who was dressed very nicely and looked as if though he were about to go out on a date perhaps "It's a nice day isn't it?"
"Yeah that's what I was thinking" said Serenity with a smile since it really did look beautiful with all of the lovely multicolored leaves on the sidewalk "That and it's not too cold yet"
While Serenity figured that it was probably just a coincidence that she ran into Duke, it wasn't. Duke had purposely dressed nicely and headed down towards Domino High in search of her. Duke wasn't able to forget Serenity no matter how hard he tried, so there was only one thing he could do. He decided that he was going to tell her exactly how he truly felt about her. Now that he looked down at Serenity, he knew that he was making the right choice. What he didn't know was that somebody had come up with the exact same plan he had...
"I'm going to tell her exactly how I feel" thought Tristan as he raced down the street towards Domino High with a bouquet of flowers in his hand "If I don't do it now then-DEVLIN?"
"Serenity you know that I've always appreciated you" said Duke as he tried to think of the best way to express what he was truly feeling "But now I really have to tell you this..."
"What is it Duke?" said Serenity who could never have imagined what it was that Duke actually wanted to tell her "Is it something serious?"
"Serenity" said Duke who despite his usual confidence was actually having a hard time getting the words out "I-"
"Hey Serenity!" shouted Tristan as quickly ran up to Serenity and gave her the bouquet of flowers "I thought you might like these!"
"Oh..." said Serenity who honestly didn't understand why Tristan seemed to pop out of nowhere at times "Thanks Tristan"
"What the Hell are you doing here?" growled Duke as he suddenly marched up to Tristan and looked at him menacingly with his green eyes "I was here first!"
"Well it's a good here I'm then" said Tristan as he narrowed his brown eyes and returned the evil glare that Duke was giving him "After all she shouldn't be alone around you..."
"Is that so?" asked Duke as his green eyes opened wide and the anger began to boil in his veins at what Tristan had just said "Well you're no better!"
"Oh no not this again!" thought Serenity as she had flashbacks to the constant arguments that Duke and Tristan had during Battle City "Why do they always fight?"
Serenity had been so naive and childlike during Battle City, that she never understood why they argued. She assumed they were arguing over pointless things, like Joey and Tristan tended to do. But now as Serenity heard what Duke and Tristan were shouting at each other, she finally understood. These two young men whom she had always considered friends were in reality fighting for her affection. Tristan accused Duke of being a womanizer who would only use Serenity and leave her. He then added that there was no way he deserved to have a girl like Serenity. Duke on the other hand accused Tristan of being petty and childish. He said that such a person would never be able to fully understand Serenity. Their words began to harsher and harsher until it reached the point that they were about to fight. Serenity couldn't bear to see what was happening between these two because of her. Especially considering the fact that she didn't have feelings for either one. She tried her best to interfere and stop them, but they completely ignored her and kept shouting. In the end Serenity couldn't take it anymore and ran away as quickly as she could. I can't believe that I caused all of this...
"Why do I feel this way?" thought Alex who was in his backyard kicking a soccer ball against the wall "I've never felt this way before"
After leaving the hospital once Amelda was taken home, Alex had just spent the day walking around. Now that he remembered that Arielle had mercilessly kicked him, it left him feeling strange. How could have gone for so long with absolutely no memory of what had happened? Would he have continued living like this, had he not witnessed Amelda being attacked? The thought of it made his head pound, so he looked up at the skyscrapers in the distance.
"What is that?" said Alex as his grey eyes opened wide and he stared at the dark swirling cloud hovering over Obsidian Inc "I've never seen anything like that before"
This more Alex looked at the swirling cloud, the more uneasy he felt. After all both his father and his sister were downtown at that moment. His father was currently at the hospital and Alexandria was over at Azure Inc. While he figured that maybe he was being silly, there was one thing that worried him. What if Stan tried to hurt either of them out of revenge? Then again Dr. DeWinters worked in place where there were lots of other people, while Alexandria worked for Stan's mother. Even he's not stupid enough to try something like that...
"Wait...Tea's also downtown right now" said Alex as he looked away from the dark cloud and looked over at the Azure Inc building "What if..."
Although Alex knew Tea worked in a place filled with lots of people, he couldn't be too sure. What if Stan decided to show up there and bother her? After all it's not like anyone would have the nerve to kick him out of "Von Schroeder's". Suddenly Alex felt a tingling sensation on his forehead which caused him to remember Amelda. Amelda had taken quite a beating and even though he seemed alright, it was obvious he was pretty hurt. What if Stan decided to track him down and take advantage of this situation? Amelda would never win in such conditions and would end up in the emergency room or worse. I just hope I'm wrong and that everyone is alright...
"I can't believe this..." said Amelda as his grey eyes widened as he stared at what was on the computer screen in front of him "I just can't!"
So far Amelda's search on Odysseus had yielded results that he never would have imagined. So far he had learned that the man's full name was Odysseus Laertes Gardner and that he was forty four years old. Odysseus had graduated from the University of Domino with the highest honors with a degree in Chemistry. Shortly after graduation, he was hired at Obsidian Inc's research department. Odysseus worked there for about a year before he ended up being arrested. The reason? He was charged with murdering five other chemists who had also worked at Obsidian Inc. Eventually Odysseus went to court where he was being represented by an attorney named Ulysses Anderson. In the end Odysseus was found guilty and sentenced to life in prison where he'd ended up going insane. There was no longer any way Amelda could doubt it, this was the same man from his dreams. But what about Angel?
"If he exists then she probably does too" said Amelda as he quickly typed something and continued with his search "I have to keep looking until I get to the bottom of this"
Amelda immediately went to the Domino Hall of Records website in hopes of finding something. This search proved to be the most difficult of all since there were many people in Domino with the last name "Gardner". After scrolling down several pages, he finally found what he wanted: Odysseus was indeed married. He clicked on the link and was finally able to see an actual copy of the marriage licence. As soon as the page loading, Amelda realized that the name of Odysseus' wife was Amneris Angelica Gardner. Amneris?...where have I seen that name before?
"Wait...Tea's nametag" said Amelda when he suddenly remembered where he last saw the name "That's where I saw that name!"
The situation was growing stranger and stranger by the minute, which only made Amelda want to know more. He quicklywent to a search engine and typed in "Amneris Angelica Gardner" to see if it yielded any results. A few pages did come up, but oddly enough the "Von Schroeder's" website among them. Amelda couldn't take his eyes off of the link to "Von Schroeder's", so he immediately clicked on it. He was then led to a page entitled "Cosmetics And Other Aesthetics". While this appeared to be a dead end, Amelda decided to scroll down anyways. The moment he did, his eyes were fixed on the picture right below the cheesy slogan.
"I'm seeing it" said Amelda as he stared at a woman who according to the website, was the manager of the cosmetics department "But I still don't believe it.."
The woman in the picture was a good looking woman with long auburn hair and pale green eyes. Her long hair was neatly pulled into a ponytail and she had a serious look on her face. There was absolutely no doubt about it, this woman was Angel. The strange thing though was that it seemed that "Angel" or Amneris, looked exactly the same as in his dreams. She still looked as if though she were in her late twenties, even though she was really in her forties. The more Amelda looked at the picture though, the more he realized something shocking. Without even thinking, he quickly went back to the Domino Hall of Records website and began a new search. I have to confirm this...
Several Hours Later
"Can you believe they fell for that?" said Mr. Moto laughed as he wiped some tears away from his eyes as he stared at the tv sitting on the counter "I just love these hidden camera shows!"
"Yeah...they're pretty funny I guess" said Yugi halfheartedly as he rested his hand on his chin as he paid little attention to the show "But I'm too worried to laugh right now"
"We interrupt this regularly scheduled program" said the anchorwoman as some music played in the background and the news logo came on "To bring you a last minute news bulletin!"
"What? No not right now!" cried Mr. Moto since the program was about to show a man who popped out of trash cans to scare people "It was just getting good!"
"Wait lets listen to it Grandpa" said Yugi as he quickly reached over for the remote and turned the volume up a bit "It might be something really important"
"At this hour police have intensified their search for escaped convict Odysseus Gardner" said the anchorwoman as she touched her earpiece at that moment "I'm also getting a last minute report that the reward for his capture is being raised to $125,000"
"Odysseus Gardner?" exclaimed Mr. Moto as his memory was suddenly refreshed and it took him back many years "I still remember his trial as if though it were yesterday!"
"You do?" asked Yugi as he turned his attention away from the television and over to his grandfather who had a very worried look on his face "How long ago was it?"
"Why don't you remember?" asked Mr. Moto as he glanced up at his grandson with a slightly surprised look on his face "You used to sit on my knee as we watched his trial on tv"
"Dad I don't think that Yugi would remember" said a female voice as a woman with short burgundy hair walked into the shop "After he was only two years old when it happened"
"He was?" asked Mr. Moto as he looked up at his daughter and couldn't believe that so much time had passed "But it feels as if though it wasn't that long ago"
"So you remember this too mom?" said Yugi as he glanced up at his mother as she walked over to the counter and took a seat besides them "Just what did he do?"
Suddenly a picture of Odysseus came onscreen and the news anchor gave a recap. According to Mr. and Mrs. Moto, the man had changed considerably. He had once been very handsome, but prison had obviously it's toll on him. Yugi began to wonder whether this man's escape that he had been sensing all along. After all he was very dangerous and everyone was in danger if he was on the loose. Mr. Moto noticed the look on Yugi's face and told him that he had nothing to worry about since Odysseus would be found eventually. Strangely enough he made this comment while heading off to lock the front door. Well I can only hope that Grandpa's right about this...
"This is it" said Amelda as he glanced down at the what was currently on the computer screen with an incredulous look on his face "There's no doubt about it now"
Although his search had taken several hours, Amelda found what he needed: Tea's birth certificate. When he finally located it, he clicked on it and his suspicions were confirmed. Tea Aida Gardner was born eighteen years before on August 18 to Amneris and Odysseus Gardner. If that wasn't proof enough, he had found that Amneris Gardner's home address was listed as 4900 Apricot St #24. She looks exactly like her mother but with her father's hair and eye color...
"Okay so they are her parents" said Amelda as he momentarily lifted his gaze from the screen and looked up "But does she even know about her father?"
That was something that Amelda was honestly wanted to know. Especially when he considered the fact that Tea was only two years old when Odysseus was imprisoned. Had her mother let her know that her father was actually in prison? Somehow Amelda doubted this and was certain that Amneris had hid this from Tea. Then again it seemed that this woman had lots to hide from daughter. After all how could she possibly explain the fact that she had belonged to The Society of Assassins where she was the top assassin? Or what about the fact that the only reason Odysseus was in prison was because her former master had framed him? Amelda was so caught up in his thoughts that he was failed to notice that someone had just entered the apartment.
Knock Knock
"Amelda?" said Raphael's voice from the other side of the bedroom door since he wanted to let him know who it was "Can we come-"
"Amelda!" shouted an extremely hyper Varon as he opened the door and simply ran into the bedroom like he always did "Ya won't believe what happened earlier today mate!"
"What?" asked Amelda as Varon quickly plopped down beside him while Raphael quietly entered the room but stayed on his feet "What happened?"
"Tea!" shouted Varon as he suddenly jumped up for a moment as if though he had sat on a thumbtack "She got attacked by this crazy bloke earlier today!"
"What?" exclaimed Amelda as his eyes opened wide since he wasn't sure if Varon was so serious, so he looked over at Raphael "Is this true?"
"It's true" said Raphael as he nodded his head when he noticed the look that Amelda had on his face "He attacked her and might have seriously hurt her if we hadn't shown up when we did"
"What happened though?" asked Amelda in a very subtle voice even though he felt a chill run down his spine "Is she alright?"
"Aside from the fact that was scared, she seemed alright" said Raphael as he recalled just how terrified Tea had been after the attack "Varon and I walked her over to her job though"
"You should have seen this bloke though" said Varon as she shook his head when he recalled exactly what the man looked like "He looked like he walked right out of a cemetery"
He then wasted no time in describing the man's' unnatural appearance to Amelda with as much detail as he could. The long dirty brown hair, the greyish skin, the eerie teeth, the long dirty fingernails, and those cold dead blue eyes. As Varon described Tea's attacker, Amelda felt a huge lump in his throat. He immediately headed towards the the Domino Police Deparment website in search of a picture of Odysseus. This can't be a mere coincidence...
"Is this the man you're talking about?" asked Amelda as he carefully turned the laptop around so Raphael and Varon could see the picture "Is he the one who-"
"THAT'S HIM!" shouted Varon as his sky blue eyes widened the moment he lay eyes on the picture "THAT'S THE BLOKE WHO ATTACKED TEA!"
"WHAT?" thought Amelda who felt sick and almost delirious now that Varon had just confirmed his suspicions
"Odysseus L. Gardner" said Raphael as he moved closer and read what was written directly below the picture "Extremely violent and very dangerous"
"He attacked her.." thought Amelda as he swallowed hard at the thought of Tea being mercilessly attacked by this man "Her own father attacked her"
"Wait a sec!" exclaimed Varon as he suddenly sat up and recalled the pictures that he had stashed away in his pocket "When that bloke ran off he dropped these!"
As soon as Varon pulled out the pictures, he handed them to Amelda. The moment he lay eyes on the pictures, he realized exactly what they were. These were the same three pictures that "Angel" had given to Odysseus in the first dream he had about them. Although Amelda had heard the description of what was in each picture, he hadn't actually seen them. Now that he was finally looking at them, he finally knew what Odysseus had been talking about. The very first picture was of young Odysseus and Amneris smiling as they stood in front of a cake. This was the wedding picture that Odysseus had spoken of. Amelda then moved it aside and looked at the second picture. The second picture was of a very tired look Amneris holding a tiny bundle wrapped in a pink blanket. This is was the day that their "little angel" was born. Amelda then looked at the final picture and couldn't help smiling as he did. Little two year old Tea was wearing a frilly pink dress and smiling as she hugged a toy lamb. She was so adorable that it was no wonder that Odysseus referred to her as his little angel. Wait... angel?
"The viper has risen and the angel will fall" suddenly echoed the voice of Amelda's mother somewhere in his memory "You must protect the second one"
"The second one?"
Although Amelda thought that his mother was telling him to protect Angel at first, this wasn't what she meant at all. It was only until Amelda looked at these pictures, that he remembered that Odysseus referred to his wife and daughter as his "angels". So even though "Angel" was the nickname Amneris had used, this had nothing to do with her. Amelda's mother wasn't telling him to protect Angel, she was telling him to protect the second angel. It was only now that he finally realized that Tea was the second angel...
"I have to get out of here!" suddenly cried Amelda unexpectedly as he leapt off his bed and stumbled into the bathroom "Before it's too late!"
"What the-?" exclaimed Varon after Amelda's unexpected outburst and race to the bathroom "What on Earth are ya talkin about mate?"
"There's no time to explain!" shouted Amelda from inside the bathroom as the sound of clothes rustling was heard
"Amelda what's going on?" asked Raphael in a very stern tone of voice as he knocked on the bathroom door once "Are you feeling alright?"
At that moment the bathroom door opened up and Amelda emerged dressed in a black t-shirt, dark blue cargo pants, and black boots. He then went to his closet and pulled out one of the various black trenchcoats that he owned. It turned out to be a beautiful black trenchcoat with three shiny silver buckles at the bottom of each sleeve. He then put it on, slipped the pictures into one of the pockets, and intended to leave. Unfortunately he found that Raphael and Varon were blocking his path. Even if I explained the situation, I don't think they'd believe me...
"Can you please move? " asked Amelda as he tried to move around Varon but found himself standing in front of Raphael instead "I have to go!"
"What the Hell are ya talkin about?" said Varon as he looked at Amelda as if though he had completely lost his mind "You don't have anywhere to go!"
"The only place you should be going to is bed" said Raphael as he folded his arms and looked straight down at Amelda "Remember what the doctor told you?"
"But Tea might be in danger again!" thought Amelda as he looked around and realized that it looked like he was pretty much boxed in "I have to find a way out of here"
After carefully analyzing the situation, Amelda figured out exactly what he was going to do. He sighed and quickly agreed that they were right and that the only place he should be is bed. So he walked over to his bed, sat down, and reached into the drawer in his nightstand. Raphael and Varon assumed that he was looking for his medication, but that's when it happened. Suddenly Amelda rolled over his bed, landed on the other side, and ran for the door as quickly as he could.
"AMELDA!" shouted Raphael and Varon when they saw Amelda running towards the front door at full speed "COME BACK HERE!"
"I'm coming Tea!" thought Amelda as he threw the front door open and quickly slammed it behind him "There's nothing that can keep me from you!"
Despite the pain he was still in, Amelda raced down the stairs and made it down to the garage. The SUV was parked there, but unfortunately he didn't have the keys with him. Luckily he did have the spare key to his motorcycle which he kept in the drawer of his nightstand. So after putting his helmet on, Amelda leapt onto his red motorcycle and sped out of the garage at top speed. I won't fail you Tea...
To Be Continued...
Author's Notes: Thank you so much to the people who reviewed my last chapter! Ahh blushes it looks like I went a little crazy and made the chapter super long again. This was a chapter I wanted to do for awhile, so I guess I got carried away. I know why you're wondering why I made Grandpa be Mrs. Moto's father, uh it was just a spur of the moment thing. Oh and if you've read "He's A Lady" then maybe Amelda's coat sounds familiar :D. So thanks once again! Hugs and Kisses people! (tosses chocolates) :D
