A/N: I know, I haven't updated in a while. Here's what you've been waiting for! Lol!
Black Cat's Assistant
Chapter 4: Creed Appears!
A silver haired man stood before the silver haired young girl. Both swords were pulled out and each of them was clashing swords with each other. "All I want is Train, Silver. Why not just hand him over?"
She gritted her teeth as she stood her ground. "I would never do that to Train!" She yelled. Green eyes narrowed as she put all her weight into their next clash making him fall back. "Leave him alone, Creed. He hates your guts anyway, so just face it!" Jumping back, she used the closest wall to jump over him and slice, only to get kicked in the stomach.
"How weak." He commented. "How did you become Train's partner? Was it because they pitied you?"
Silver staggered. "Good question." A smirk slide it's way onto her face. "Do you want to know how I became his partner?"
"Go ahead and tell me Silver Cat. Tell me the story that began your life with Train, before I kill you." Came his reply.
"I wouldn't say that. Call it a good-bye gift to you." Standing where she was she held her sword before her. "The day I turned ten…"
FlashbackA child by the age of ten stood before a man in white and a man in black. "What do you want to do with her?" Asked the man in white.
"Just throw her out. I don't need a weakling for a child."
The child sat under a bridge shivering as rain poured on her. "Come on kid. Let's go some place warm." Said a boy about the age of eleven or twelve. "My master can help you."
The white haired child followed the brown haired boy quietly as they walked through alleys, under bridges, within subways, and finally through a mansion. Handing her a towel he ushered her through the heavy oak doors. "Here she is sir." He said with a straight face.
Hesitantly she stood next to the brown haired boy. "Get her some fresh clothes," a man told his maid. "Train, bring her here."
Taking her hand he brought her to his master and then was patted on the head by the man. "What's your name child?"
Her mouth opened, but nothing came out.
"I see, you're a shy one." His attention then turned toward Train. "Do you have a reason why you brought her here, Train?"
A nod came from the boy by his side. "She was under a bridge in the rain. She was abandoned by her father because he said she was too weak."
"I see. Child, come here." She came to him and he placed his hand on her head. "Your hair is a very unusual color. I've never seen such white hair on a child with green eyes." He smiled. "It's alright." Without any hesitation he pulled her into his lap. "I'm your friend. A friend of Train's is a friend of mine."
Green eyes stared at the desk they sat before and whispered, "Father."
The man's smile widened. "You can call me father if you like. I'll be your father and take care of you, I promise."
End of Flashback"So they took you in." Their swords clashed against each other giving off sparks. "So what, my old boss is your new given father to you. Ha!"
Her eyes narrowed. "Watch what you say about my father!" Putting all her weight into the sword, he backed off. "I will not let Train's effort to help me be in vain." She charged and switched hands. "You haven't done your research very well. If you had finished your research Creed, then you would have known that I'm very experienced with my sword Zeus." The bell around rang as she jumped on top of his sword and stood there. "You're slow. Is it because I have gotten to you?"
The silver haired man swung only to miss since she jumped off and used his shoulders to jump behind him and pointed her sword at his neck. "Leave Train alone or I will kill you here and now."
"Silver, stop!" Came a yell behind them.
Both heads turned to see Train running up to them. "…Train…" the two said at the same time. "What are you doing here?"
Creed smirked and pointed the sword at her throat. "What's wrong Train? Afraid that this witch will have the same fate as the last one? Don't worry; I'll give her a slow painful death unlike the last death I gave. And if you come near us Train, I'll have to rip her to shreds with my sword."
The brown haired young man stopped in his tracks. "Silver…why didn't you tell me?"
Green eyes lowered. "And if I told you, you would have stopped at nothing to get to him. Train, I'm sorry, but I can't allow you to chase after a man that you are willing to risk your life to erase him." Pulling out a knife she pointed it at Creed's stomach. "Release me Creed, or you'll regret it."
The silver haired man smirked. "So you've finally decided, haven't you S.C." Sheathing his sword he backed off. "When we meet again, Train, I'll break the curse that this silver witch put on you."
Train's eyes widened. "Come back here!" He yelled when Creed disappeared in the shadows. His eyes narrowed at Silver. "I knew something was going on, but I wasn't sure what. And now that I do know, I suggest you go back to your father." His eyes closed and then he yelled, "Don't come back, or you'll regret it!"
And she ran. She had betrayed his trust, and now he hated her. Train… Tears fell from her eyes. How can I tell you the truth now?
A/N: I hope you liked it! It's short, I know, but I don't have a lot of time in the day because of school. R&R please!
