Side Story 3
Terror on Ward One
It's was just another day, I went shopping for some new clothes with the money that we got from our last assignment. I was thinking about a new dress with some shoes and maybe a new purse to match. I was going to meet Sabrina and Jill at the market to spend our money to our heart's content. When we were just to go in, Bosley sent us a message about our newest case. We were upset, but it didn't matter. If we were late, Charlie or Bosley would give us a lecture and say "time is money" and we didn't want to go to that whole speech again. So we went back to the office to see what our newest case would be. When we got there, there was an old man waiting for us. He wore a brown suit with a red tie. Then we all sat down to see what this man wanted us to do. He owned a hospital and he told us his priestesses were getting attacked by a mysterious man or should I say they were almost raped.
"The first attack was last week," the man said pacing around. "A student priestess in the same ward and the man wore a mask so the priestesses couldn't identify him. I didn't pay any attention to the first attack, but with this recent one I don't know what to think."
"And in both cases, Ed, did the women manage to get away from their attacker?" Charlie asked.
"Luckily yes," Ed replied. "But I got to tell you, Charlie, if the word got out, then I'm going to get a lot of frighten women on my hands."
"Rape is a very frightening word" Charlie spoke calmly. "Angels, any idea on how to proceed?"
"Well, Jill and I thought we can go in as young priestesses," I said. "Since both of us know the ways of a healer."
"Yeah, we thought I can go in as a reporter for a medical journal so that I can ask a lot of questions without sounding like a detective."
Sabrina stated.
"Good." Charlie sounded pleased "I'm going to uncover and find out about these priests that go there."
"Oh! Charlie, I have an idea." I said. "Lately Bosley's been complaining more and more about his toe."
"Hmmm, yes your right Serenity." Charlie pondered.
"I think it's about time he had it attended to," I said with a smirk.
"Oh, it's nothing to worry about believe me..." Bosley sounded worried. "If I just waited out it will go away."
"Wait a minute," Jill said. "Bosley as a patient, that's the perfect cover."
"It's a very simple surgery, Bosley," Sabrina said staring at Bosley.
"Please that is one of my most unfavorite words" Bosley replied to Sabrina.
I smiled.
"Bosley you're not afraid of going under the knife?" Jill asked.
"That is another one of my most unfavorite words," Bosley stated pointing at her.
Jill, Sabrina and I all laughed at Bosley.
"Bosley I agree with the girls." Charlie agreed. "You should be hospitalized. Besides with that cover, you can report to me at a moments notice."
"OK OK, you all win." Bosley surrendered before he was more humiliated. "I will be there and lie there and pretend to be a patient, no one has ever violated my body with a sharp object and no one is starting now."
"It's okay honey." I patted Bosley on the shoulder.
"No, it's not okay honey." Bosley sarcastically said.
Jill, Sabrina and I all laughed and Bosley sarcastically laughed with us, though I have a hunch that he wasn't going to enjoy this whatsoever. So on we went to the hospital to hopefully and prayerfully find out what was going on, before any of us got raped. Jill and I set up there as new priestesses. I was a pro at this so I'll be all right, and Jill was okay with healing people as well. So we put phase 1 into action, Jill got went and got acquainted with two of the priestesses almost got raped. The two priestesses Jill sat with were Stacy and Karian. Surprisingly Stacy and Karian weren't exactly afraid of staying there even though Stacy almost got raped. They told us about prime suspect who was Quincy, the priestesses nicknamed him
"The kissing intern." Jill manage to get a date with a guy, hopefully, and prayerfully to get some answers.
I was in the room helping Bosley into his hospital bed when the doctor came in and analyzed his foot. Bosley was very frantic. I stared at Bosley then I rolled my eyes on how he was acting so much like a baby. The doctor said his toe might've been infected. The doctor said that he's going to help Bosley with his toe and they're also going to delay the surgery. Bosley wasn't exactly happy to be here and he was still acting like a baby while I was making up the bed next to him, still rolling my red at him on how he was acting. Then the doctor left and I decided to scold Bosley.
"Bos you're displaying a certain lack of courage," I said while fixing his outfit.
"Well, some is displaying a flagrant case of overkill," Bosley said frantically. "Dansworth is the chief priest here, his talents are wasted on my toe."
"Bosley we arrange Dandworth to be your doctor," I stated. "We also arrange for you to be in this particular room."
"Why Dansworth, and why this room?" Bosley asked.
"The man next to you, named Harley occupies that bed," I stated plainly. "He was seen near the room where the attack took place, where Dansworth just finished a surgery."
"Wait a minute." Bosley stop me. "Are you telling me that they're both suspects?"
"I am saying that they might give us some handle on this," I said. "The trick is to question them so they won't realize that they're being questioned."
"Ah, I see," Bosley said slyly. "What we need is a sharp eye and a deaf clever tongue."
"That would be wonderful Bosley." I praised. "But meanwhile, see what you can find out without blowing it."
Bosley gave me a sour look, and I just smirked at him and walked away out of the room. And speaking of which as I walked out Harley was coming in with the nurse. And both Harley and the nurse were bickering all the way.
Well the day was over and it was nighttime now, and I was walking the halls with Sabrina discussing the situation and the problem hoping to find the answer. All was quiet, then all of a sudden we heard a woman scream that pierced the quiet evening.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH"
Sabrina and I rushed to see who it was that screamed, then we saw a priest in the hallway telling us that it was Carrie. Then as we rushed to Carrie, we heard the sound of a window smashing. We barged into the room and we found Carrie lying on the floor barely conscious. Sabrina and I help Carrie up, then Sabrina walked to the smashed window.
"Did you see anything?" Sabrina asked the priest.
"No" he replied. "He was already out the window."
"All right what's out there?" Sabrina asked pointing to the next building over.
"Those are just the executive offices." He replied.
Then two more priest came in helping me with Carrie. Sabrina then saw something on the floor and picked it up, and I walked over to see what it was.
"What is it?" I asked. They look like yellow pills.
"I don't know." Sabrina shook her head. "but somebody left their calling card."
Sabrina and I then went to Mr. Ed to see if he knew what these strange yellow pills were.
"Great, three attempted rapes in two weeks," Mr. Ed said frantically pacing around the room. "By this time tomorrow this hospital could be in a complete state of panic."
"The soldiers will be through talking to Carrie in a few minutes," Sabrina said. "When they are all stay closed to her."
"You can't keep Carrie from talking about what happened last night" Mr. Ed stated furiously
"Well, I got to try because we can't do our job if things go crazy around here," Sabrina stated back.
"Those yellow capsules we found what are they?" I ask Mr. Ed
"Hycodroxine," Mr. Ed answered. "it's a new type of drug testing here."
"What are they used for?" Jill asked.
"basically it's a drug that helps keep you awake" Mr. Ed said.
"Could it cause emotional side effects?" Sabrina asked Mr. Ed.
"it depends on the dosage" Mr. Ed replied. "And a mental condition of the person's taking it."
"Do any of your staff use Hycodroxine?" I asked.
"Yes, I suppose some of them do" Mr. Ed stated. "But not to excess."
"How could you be so sure?" Jill pondered as she asked him.
"We keep a very close record of what drug is being used, how much is being used, and who is using it." Mr. Ed said furiously. "if someone is taking usually heavy prescriptions then I would know that it immediately."
All of us were very quiet as to what Mr. Ed said was sinking in and we were very worried and concerned about who is taking it and how much. Then the three of us left and Sabrina had to speak her mind as she always does.
"The priest who saw the man who attacked Carrie said he ran across to the office buildings," Sabrina stated. "And Dr. Dansworth office in that building."
"I think I better pay Dr. Dansworth office a little visit," I said.
"I think so too," Sabrina replied.
"Maybe will find some of those yellow capsules," Jill said.
"You know I've been watching Dansworth the poor man is tired, maybe close to the edge," I said sadly.
Jill and Sabrina both sighed.
"Wait a minute." Jill paused. "It's time for my date with the kissing intern."
"Nervous type?" I asked worryingly.
Jill nodded in response. "I got a find out where it's coming from."
"Well, he might not want to show you" Sabrina warned Jill.
"Well, then I'm going to have to push a little then," Jill said in a cocky tone.
"Don't push too hard," I said worryingly.
"I won't" Jill whispered to us in reply, but Sabrina and I were still concerned. And we both watched as Jill and her "date" walked off. When I saw Jill leave I decided to pay a visit to Dr. Dansworth office. It was locked naturally, so I picked the lock which I was a pro at. Well, I finally went in and I decided to look around. I check the drawers and everything and then I came to his desk to see if anything was there. And then I hit the jackpot, I found dozens of empty bottles that was supposed to be filled with hycodroxine. I was very surprised to find these, then I had to leave immediately because I didn't want to be caught. So exit the room quietly then I walked out.
Then I heard trumpets sounds, this sparked my curiosity so I decide to find out where is was coming from and what they were sounding. So I went to the main hall and I saw all the priests and priestess line up on both sides of the hallway making a path. Then a carriage rolled in and a soldier announced who it was.
"Make way for Princess Sakura, the fourth child of the Royal Family of Hoshido! Along with her retainers Hana and Subaki!"
"What! Sakura here! Oh, this is bad, this is very bad." I frantically thought. "I wonder if she's knows about the 'attempt' rapes here."
I ran away before Sakura and her retainers recognize me. I didn't know what to do. Then when I was in the hallway I met up with Jill. Jill was getting a drink of water.
"So how to go with the kissing intern?" I ask quickly.
"Kinda sad really." Jill replied undoing her hair. "he likes girls, he just doesn't know how to handle it."
"Wow, so maybe he's pretty angry with the ladies right," I said.
"Maybe even enough to attempt rape," Jill replied.
"There's the word, attempt," I stated, "Three attempt rapes."
"I'm thinking the same thing," Jill nodded her head slowly.
"Oh-Uh-Oh."
Jill and I heard someone moaning in pain.
"Jill"
We saw a priestess lying on the floor moaning Jill and I went to her to help. She was barely conscious.
"You better go get a priest," I told Jill.
Then Jill ran to go find a priest.
"Are you alright?" I asked the priestess.
The barely conscious just moaned.
CLICK CLANG TING TANG CLASH!
I heard noises inside the medicine closet like someone was in there. So I went to the door and listen closely to the sounds. So I turn the doorknob slowly, and slowly open the closet door, hoping to see who was inside. When I open the door wide enough, I went in the closet in the room was dark, so I couldn't see who was there, but I still heard the noises. So I followed the sound ever so quietly, then I saw someone in the back looking through stuff or taking things, I honestly couldn't tell. But he turned around and saw me, and then looked at me dead in the eyes. Then he threw some glass bottles at me I turned away before shards hit me. After that he pushed a large medicine cabinet, it almost fell on me but I ran out and shut the closet door, hoping it would keep the man inside, but he ran into it and he shoved me hard against the corner of the counter and hit me right on my kidneys too. And he ran away, then Jill came with a priest.
"Hey, are you alright?" Jill asked sounding very concerned. "What happened?"
"Yeah," I said. "He got away."
"Who?" Jill asked, "Who got away?"
"I don't know, a man he had on a mask," I replied. "OW, Oh." I was rubbing the spot where it hurt on my back.
"Strike two." Jill sighed.
"Yeah, one more and were out." I sighed.
Well, I went to go to the medicine hall to see if I could get an elixir to soothe the pain on my aching back. On my way there I saw Hana and Subaki talking to each other, and wondered where was Sakura. I completely forgot about my pain and ran to go find Sakura. This place isn't exactly safe for the priestess, especially for one Sakura's age. Then I heard screaming.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!"
I followed the sound of the scream, it lead me to a room. Inside, it sounded like a struggle was taking place. I rushed in to find the masked priest tackling Sakura. I knocked off the priest off of Sakura.
"Sakura, are you ok!" I asked the frightened red-headed priestess.
"Ser-Serenity? Is-is that you?" Sakura asked timidly
"Yes, yes it's me." I hugged the frightened priestess. "Oh thank God you safe."
Then the masked priest grabbed me from being and threw me against the wall and tried to strangle me.
"SERENITY!" Sakura yelled.
"Sakura-go get your-retainers and get out of here!" I struggled to get priest's hands off my throat.
"But-but what about you!" Sakura asked.
"SAKURA! GO NOW!" I yelled as the priest pinned me down and punch my stomach.
Sakura ran crying at the sight she just witnessed. But the priest grabbed her ankle before she could get away. The masked priest was about to punch Sakura in the face, but before he could, I bit his arm.
"Argh!" The priest wailed.
"Run Sakura! NOW!" I ordered the young priestess. I watched as Sakura nodded with a face full of tears and ran off. Then the masked priest got a knife and cut my arm.
"Ah!" I covered the cut with my other hand. Then the priest grabbed my dress collar and threw me down and ran off.
I laid there for a few minutes until Jill found me. I told her what happened and she healed my cut and bruise but now my body ache even more.
Well, the Royal guards arrived at the scene of the crime and were asking the other priestesses what happened. Jill went and got a bag full of ice for me, to put on the sore spot on my back. We were talking to Bosley when Sabrina showed up.
"Let me guess, a lot of little yellow pills are missing," Sabrina said.
"Oh an armload of Hycodroxine," Jill told Bree.
"When I was searching Danworth's office, there were empty Hycodroxine bottles," I said. "Maybe I ought to look again, for a sudden new supply."
"Good idea." Sabrina agreed.
"While you do that, I'm gonna look up 'the kissing intern' and try to find out where he was when the pills disappeared," Jill said.
"Listen, last night, I woke up and Halvorsen was slipping back into the room," Bosley told us.
"Hmmm, I wonder if that was around the same time that Farragut was attacked?" Sabrina wondered.
"Halvorsen could have a grudge against priestess in general," Bosley said.
"Or maybe Farragut in particular," Jill said.
"Now if he was cleverly, indeafly interrogated," Bosley explained.
"That's a good idea Bos," Jill started. "Only trouble is your the one who's closest to him, so you'll have to do it."
Bosley gave Jill a cold glare. "Oh that's amusing, that is very amusing."
"Bosley you better get back to your room, Charlie's sending some material this morning," I told him.
"Oh, your right." Bosley agreed, then he walked off to his room. "Thanks."
"I'll see you later." Then Sabrina left.
And Jill and I went back to our jobs.
Once again I heard trumpets sounds. "Oh great now what." I thought. I went to go see what was going on this time. There were Royal guards in the hallway. Then a soldier said.
"All Hail High Prince Ryoma, First Born of the Hoshidian Royal Family!"
"WHAT! RYOMA!" My mouth dropped. "Oh great, now we're in really big trouble!" I ran away because I knew that he would DEFINITELY recognize me. I ran and I ran and I ran.
"Why, why is Ryoma here?!" I thought. "Wait, Sakura must have told him what happened." Then I stopped right in my tracks. "Then she told him I was here! Oh, this is bad, very very very bad."
Then I went into a medical room. I heard some noises in there. "Hmm, maybe it's Jill." I thought. I opened the door, but who I saw wasn't Jill. It was the masked priest.
"Great, I still haven't fully healed yet from the last beating he gave me." I sighed.
While I was lost in thought, the priest jumped me and pinned me to the floor. His hands went immediately for my throat. I tried pulling his hands off, but to know avail. I kneed him in the stomach, it got him off at least but when I got up he pinned me to the wall. He still tried to strangle me, as I felt my life being squeezed out of me, I heard a strong, stern, confident voice in the background.
"You would be wise to let that priestess go."
I opened my eyes slowly, my vision was blurry but of the loss of oxygen, but from what I could make out, it was a tall red and white figure.
"I do not like to repeat myself, so you better do what I said, or there will be pain."
The priest let me go and went for the other mysterious figure. The priest tried to punched the other person, the red and white tall figured dodged it with ease, and grabbed the priest's arm and flung him out of the room like he was nothing to him. I heard the masked priest ran away. Then the tall red and white figure who was now nothing but a blurry vision came over to me.
"Serenity. Serenity! Are you all right?" The stranger asked.
I looked at the blurry figure for a moment, then I coughed still panting for air. The stranger held me in his arms. Then I said a name.
"Bree, Bree is-is that you?" I whimpered.
When I asking if the stranger was Sabrina, the stranger frowned.
"Serenity it's me, Ryoma." He whispered quietly.
"Ry-Ryoma," I whispered, I couldn't hold on to what little strength I had. So my conscious faded, my vision went black, and I pass out in Ryoma's strong arms.
I woke up to someone rubbing a cold, wet towel on my forehead.
"Hm, I see you're still in a daze Serenity."
My vision was still blurry, but since his face was closer time I could see better of who it was.
"Mmmhmmm"
"Hmm, my poor sweet Serenity, I know something that will wake you right up." He said.
Ryoma leaned over and kissed me on my lips. My eyes popped open.
"There. I knew that would do the trick." Ryoma had a devious grin.
"Ry-Ryoma, wh-what happened," I whimpered.
"You were in over your head, that's what happened." Ryoma hit my head as a punishment.
"OH!" I immediately stood up. "The masked priest, I completely forgot!"
Before I was about to stand up. Ryoma pinned me to the bed.
"You're not going anyway, little lady," Ryoma said stern, firmly pinning me to the bed.
I felt like a bug pinned to a board. Ryoma's body wouldn't move. Then I realized what was he doing here.
"Ryoma, what are you doing here?"
Ryoma let out a sigh, then he let me go and sat down next to me.
"Sakura came running into the throne room, shouting nonsense at first, mother tried to calm her down, as did the rest of us. Sakura immediately went to me and told me what had happened to her." Then Ryoma looked at me with deep sorrowful eyes. "And she told me what happened to you."
Ryoma gently stroked my face with his armored hand. "You have no idea how worried I was about you."
"I'm sorry I made you worry about me." I quietly said while playing with my hair.
Ryoma looked at me and then leaned over and kissed me again.
"Oh Serenity, you have no idea how much I missed you."
"I missed you too my Prince."
Ryoma still kept kissing me and then I fell on my back on the bed. Ryoma was still kissing me. I tried getting him off, but he didn't move.
"I'm sorry Serenity, but we need have some catching up to do," Ryoma said.
Oh, how I would love to stay and have him right there with me. But I knew I couldn't not now, I had a case to finish, and no wasn't the right time, I still had to make him meet me as Sapphire. It was too early, so I had to end our little reunion.
"I'm sorry Ryoma, but I have work to do, and I know that you do as well," I told him.
Ryoma grunted. "Your right, those words burn my tongue, but your right."
I gently stroked Ryoma face, getting a sighed of comfort from him.
"Don't worry, I'll see you before you leave, I promise," I said.
Ryoma nodded, then I got up and went on my merry way. But before I left, I blew Ryoma a kiss, and I saw a hint a blush on Ryoma's face. And I giggle at the sight of that.
So after that, I went to Mr. Danworth office to check and see if he had and new Hycodroxine pills. I knocked on the door to see if Mr. Danworth was in there. When there was no answer, I decided to pick the lock-which I was a pro on. I looked around to make sure nobody saw me and what I was doing. When the coast was clear, I opened the door, and went into the room and quietly closed the door behind me.
The I saw Mr. Danworth sitting at his desk unconscious. I checked his pulse to see if he was alive. I was relieved that he was ok. I looked at his desk and I saw some Hycodroxine pills and a glass of water. Then I saw a note right above the pills, it said.
"I'm sorry for what I've done. I didn't mean to hurt those priestesses. But I couldn't help myself. gods, forgive me. Danworth."
The letter was written in Danworth signature. My whole body went cold, my first reaction was to go get Bree and the others. But before I got to the door, someone else had other ideas.
"Stop right there!"
I turned around to see who it was. It was the priest with the mask, and he had a knife and pointed it at me. And I slowly walked away from the door. The man took the Hycodroxine pills from the table and the glass of water and gave it to me.
"Take em." He ordered.
I was holding the Hycodroxine pills in one hand and the glass of water in the other, looking nervous at the masked priest with his knife pointed at me.
"I said take em!" He orders again.
"I was frightened because this masked priest pointed his knife at me, and I didn't know what to do.
Then there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Danworth?" It was Jill and while the priest was distracted. I threw pills at him and tried to take the knife away from him.
"Jill!" I called.
Jill immediately tried to open the door, but to no avail.
"Serenity!" Jill was banging outside the door while I was getting tackled on the inside. The priest pushed me against the wall and kept banging my head against a picture. Then I finally kicked him down and while he was down I was naming his hand against the corner of the table to get the knife out of his hand. He finally dropped the knife, and it fell on the floor.
"Serenity!" Jill called again.
The priest pulled my hair hard and we rolled over across the stone-cold floor. Jill was trying to force the door open, but still no luck. She was getting more worried about when she heard more noises coming for inside the room.
"Serenity!"
The priest threw me against a chair and he grabbed me by the throat and tried to strangle me.
"Serenity!"
I tried to get his hands off my neck. I could feel his sharp nails digging into the back of my neck.
"Serenity!" Jill was banging against the door.
I grabbed the priest's shirt collar and I threw him against the wall and luckily for me he was knocked out. I immediately grabbed the knife before he could wake up and get it. I went to open the door to let the frighten Jill come in.
"Are you ok?" Jill asked worriedly.
"Yeah." I was panting, exhausted from the struggle.
"Who is it?" Jill asked as we went over the unconscious man. I pulled his mask off.
We both gasped at who it was.
"It's Priestess Farragut."
Jill and I exchanged confused glances at each other, as we looked down at the unconscious Priestess Farragut. Then we both went to find Sabrina and tell her what happened. The "kissing intern" said he saw Bree and Ted go downstairs to the basement Jill and I rushed downstairs because we were starting to get worried when we got to the downstairs we saw Ted with an iron rod about to hit a corner, Sabrina.
"HOLD IT!" Jill yelled as she summoned magic lighting.
I ran over and pointed my sword at Ted. We saw Sabrina's frightened yet relieved face.
"Drop it," I ordered Ted, pointing my sword at his throat. And he did, and Sabrina lets out a sigh of relief.
"You alright?" I asked the relieved Sabrina.
Sabrina nodded in response, still frightened about what she went through. We all were letting out sighs of relief and glad it was finally over. The three of us took Ted upstairs to the Royal guards. I got a letter from Charlie, and Jill was comforting Sabrina.
"How's Danworth?" Jill asked Sabrina.
"He's ok," Sabrina replied.
I opened the letter that Charlie sent. I read to myself first then I explained to Jill and Bree what it said.
"Well Charlie just found out why Halvorsen ran out, alimony problems with an ex-wife," I explained. "He thought we were working for her, those midnight letters, he was just trying to ship out."
Jill and Sabrina were laughing and giggling.
"Oh what happened with Farragut and Ted?" I asked Sabrina.
"You mean a Mrs. George Mcduff and Son Theodore Mcduff," Sabrina said. "It all go back to that case in Charlie's report."
Sabrina took Jill's drink and told us to follow her.
"So Ted and his mother not only wanted Danworth dead, they wanted him disgraced." Jill said and Sabrina agreed.
"That's why, they staged the attempted rapes," I complied.
"That's right," Sabrina took a sip of the tea.
"Geez." Jill and I both said.
"Then we saw some priests pulling Bosley's cart, with Bosley in it.
"Bosley?"
We all rushed over to him.
"Bosley." Sabrina smiled.
"Bosley, you did it," Jill patted him on the shoulder.
"Bosley you're ok now," I said.
"Bosley were so proud of you," Sabrina congratulated him.
"Who are you talking to?" one of the priests asked.
"We're talking to him, you do you think we're talking to," Jill snapped at the priest.
I examined Bosley's toe to check to see how good of a job they did. "Boy there good, they didn't even leave a mark!"
Jill and Sabrina came over to see Bosley's toe to see what I meant.
"Wow, I don't see any stitches, where are the stitches?!" Jill looked at his toe.
"In his side where else." The priest told Jill.
Sabrina and I exchange some shocking looks.
"In his side!" I said, "What are the stitches doing in his side!"
"What's wrong? What happened?" Sabrina asked.
"Nothing wrong, everything came out fine," the other priest said.
"What came out?" Jill asked worryingly.
"A loose bone," the priest said.
"A loose bone!" I yelled.
"Bosley why did you let them take a loose bone out?" Sabrina asked the dazed Bosley.
"I don't know?" Bosley sounded drunk.
"Why do you people keep calling him Bosley?"
"Yeah."
"Because that's his name you dummy!" Jill practically bit the guy's head off. Jill looked at the name tag on Bosley's wrist. "Halvorsen."
"See Halvorsen."
"Bosley, what are you going with Halvorsen's tag on?" I asked.
"I don't know," he replied still sounding drunk.
"You mean he's not Halvorsen?"
"NO!" The three of us said.
"No, he's not Halvorsen, his name is Bosley," Jill explained. "He came in to check his toe, you took a loose bone out!"
"You can't win them all," the two priests rushed Bosley out to another room.
"Um," Bree said.
And the three of us watched Bosley being taken away by the two priests.
Well with this case close, the sleeping drug that Bosley room finally wore off. So we had to take him out before the priests here took something else out. Before we left, I saw Ryoma about to leave.
"Hold on you guys, there's something I have to do first," I said then ran over to Ryoma. I patted Ryoma on his shoulder to get his attention. He turned around with a smile on his face.
"Were you being to worry that I wouldn't come?" I asked.
"No." He sounded confident. "If you weren't coming to say goodbye to me on your own, then I was going to find you and make you reconsider."
His smile was dangerous, and that sent shivers up my spine. Then he gently stroked my face with the back of his hand. "I wish you would come back to Shirasagi with me."
"Oh Ryoma, I wish I could, but like you, I have a job to do," I said.
Ryoma let out a depressing sigh. But then he regained his normal composer and gave me a cold glare. "You job, it better not be something dangerous."
I felt my body stiffen at his remark. "Oh no Ryoma, it's nothing dangerous at all." I lied.
"Good, now what were you doing here anyway?" He asked.
"Well, a friend of mine needed help with some supply, so I came over to help with that." I lied again.
"Alright. But don't do anything dangerous since I won't be there to protect you." Ryoma purred.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, nothing dangerous ever happens on my job." I lied a third time.
Ryoma smiled. "Well, can I have a goodbye kiss before we part ways again?"
I nodded, then Ryoma leaned down and kiss me. Ryoma's kiss was bold and it didn't surprise me. He went down from my lips to my neck, then nibbled at my earlobe. I had to stop him before he gets carry away, much to his displeasure. I waved goodbye to the High Prince of Hoshido and I watched him walk off until I couldn't see him anymore. I went to go find Sabrina, Jill, and Bosley, only to find Sabrina standing on top of the steps with an eyebrow raised. My guess is that she saw the whole thing with me and Ryoma.
"I take it you saw the whole thing," I said.
"Yep," Sabrina replied.
"So, then what do you think Hoshidian noble, about me making out with your Hoshidian High Prince?" I questioned.
Sabrina was quiet for a moment, she closed her eyes slowly, then opened them calmly. "Serenity, I knew a man would fall in love with you some day, but I'd never imagine it would be the High Prince of Hoshido."
