Blood Covered Hands Ch. 6
Rose: Back again. So I'll keep this short and say that I do not own Yugioh or elfin lied. I will also say please enjoy the story!
I shoot all but one, and then all is quiet. The ones I shot are on the ground not dead but bleeding so they're not going anywhere. The one teen, the one who was giving the orders is standing in the middle his eyes wide. I lower the gun then drop it. I start walking towards him. He starts backing up then he trips and falls to the ground. I keep advancing towards him.
"Please no," he says his voice trembling. Now I'm right in front of him.
"Please," he says again. I release my vectors and they surround him but not yet touching him.
"Don't worry. You won't feel a thing," I tell him. His eyes widen even further. He lets out a scream and holds his arms out in front of him. Just as I'm ready to kill him I hear a cry of,
"Stop!"
I stop and look behind me. I see Yami and Atem but I know that it was Yami that just spoke. "Why? He tried to kill you both. They all did," I say.
"I know that but…," he trails off.
"They're already down so there is no reason to do anymore," Atem comes in. I look at him then at Yami who is looking at the ground. After a moment I finally sigh. "As you wish," I say. I then look down at the boy who also seems to have turned his attention to them. When he realizes I'm looking at him he flinches. I bend down in front of him. "You better listen well little boy. The only reason your still alive right now is because these two have spoken up for you. Remember that." I then take my hand, my visible one and nock him out.
"What did you-," "it's alright I only just knocked him out," I say. I get up and turn around and look at them. I see a mix of emotions in they're faces relief, disbelief, but the most apparent was the fear. I expected this. I mean I can I not, really? They just saw something that should not have been possible. I walk towards them. Atem seems to be the first to snap out of the daze that they both seem to be under. He puts a hand on his brothers' shoulder and has him get behind him. He also glares at me as he does it. I stop and look at them.
"What the hell was that,"
"What was what? I just saved you both," I say. He just continues to glare at me.
"Don't play dumb! You know what I'm talking about. The chairs floating in mid air. The bullets' stopping in the air and not hitting you. Not to mention the kids. Need I go on,"
he asks. 'No, not really," I think. However this guy's attitude is starting to annoy me and I'm trying to be patient. As if sensing this, his brother puts a hand on his shoulder.
"Calm down Atem,"
he then turns to me.
"Thank you for saving us. But really, how did you do that,"
he asks. I look at them for a moment before I say, "it's just an ability that I was born with. That's all."
"An ability," Atem says. It's then that I hear people approaching. Years on the being on guard have made my ears sharp. "Look, I need to ask you two a favor," I say to them. They look at me with uncertainty.
"And that would be,"
Atem asks. It was then that we hear banging at the door. I look at the door for a moment then turn back to them. "I want you to not tell anyone what you just saw. It will only cause trouble." They are silent for a moment then they look at each other. Yami then shrugs and Atem sighs and rubs his head.
"Yeah alright, it's not like anyone would believe us anyway,"
Atem says. 'Well that was easy," I think.
"There is just one thing,"
Atem says. "What," I ask.
"What about them,
he asks looking at the boys on the ground. "It's alright, I doubt anyone will believe them if they say anything as you said," I say. Just as I finished saying this the door burst open and the police come running in guns raised. They look around and take in what they see. Some of them tend to the boys on the ground and the others tend to the people I knocked out. Then one of the officers comes towards us.
"Are you three alright,"
he asks.
"Yes, we're fine,"
Yami says.
"What happened here,"
the officer asks. I wait quietly for they're answer.
"Well, they started arguing with each other and we saw our chance and we took it. It was stupid we know but they were going to kill us,"
Yami says.
"I see well at least your alright. However I need to ask, who fired the shots that hit the boys,"
the officer asks. 'Damn, I was afraid they were going to ask this. These two might get into trouble if they lie and get caught. However if I stare any more trouble it will cause attention and I might get caught but…,'
"Well,
the officer asks again.
"I did it,"
Atem says. Then looks at me then continues,
"they were about to shoot us and I managed to get a hold of one of the guns I started shooting." he then looks back at the officer and says,
"I will take full responsibility if anything happens." 'Shit,' I think.
"Alright, I understand. We are going to want to first get you all checked out down stairs just in case. Especially him seeing as how I can see he is a patient here,"
the officer says nodding at me. Yami and Atem nod.
"After that we will want to take your statements."
He looks behind him then at Yami.
"Is there another way out of here,"
he asks. Yami nods then points towards the other direction.
"yeah, this way."
We start walking when I start to feel a little bit of pain in my head again. I put my hand to my head and slow down. I feel a hand on my shoulder. I look and I see Yami looking at me with concerned eyes.
"Are you alright,"
he asks. I straiten up "yeah I'm fine, just tired," I answer. He nods and says,
"alright, when we get downstairs you can rest."
Again I nod. We start walking again and we come to an elevator and we get in. as we are riding down the pain in my head is getting worse. I lean against the wall and rest my head on my chest and close my eyes. I hear Yami and Atem talking but it seems to get further and further away.
"gi."
It's echoing, the voice.
"ugi."
So tired. Finally,
"Yugi!"
I open my eyes and I see all three of them looking at me. Atem seemed to be the one who was shaking me.
"Hey can you make it,"
he asks. I nod; I'm to tired to talk.
"Common, we are almost there,"
Atem says as he helps me out of the elevator. He then looks at the officer,
"you think you could see if you could find a wheelchair? We are close to the E.R so there should be one close by."
The officer nods and starts to walk away when I feel a strong pain and I feel my control slip. I realize it as soon as it happens. I try to stop it but it's too late. One of my vectors releases its self and shoots right at the officer. He turned just as my vectors entered him and he must have felt it because his eyes widened. Even though he might have felt them enter him i know that is all he felt as his blood vessels are severed. My vector then pulls out and comes back to me and disappears. When it leaves the officer whose eyes were wide starts to close and he falls to his knees then completely to the ground. I look to the ground ' shit.' I hear Atem say,
"What the hell?"
Then I feel Yami let go of me and go to the officers side. I look up slightly and see Yami check for the mans pulse. His eyes widen slightly when he feels it's not there. I hear footsteps from behind me and I feel Atem turn slightly.
"What happened here,"
a voice asks.
"We don't know,"
Atem says. The person then goes up to Yami and the dead officer. I then see it is another on of the officers who had come to our "rescue." He looks him over and comes to the same conclusion Yami did. He then turns to Yami,
"What did you see?"
"He was just walking and then he just…,"
It was then he happened to look at me. I think I hid what I did very well, but apparently he saw right through me.
"He just…,"
he repeats. I could see him thinking as if he didn't want to believe it.
"He just what,"
the officer asks. Yami looks back down at the body and says,
"he just collapses'."
The officer is silent for a moment then he gets up.
"Alright, I'll handle this I want you three to get to the emergency room"
Yami is silent but nods and gets up and comes over to us. Atem helps me up and asks,
"Are you alright to walk?"
I nod, "yeah, I'm fine now." I look up at Yami and he is giving me a look that I can't really decipher. He puts a hand on my back,
"Lets go,"
he says. We walk past the body and we go on. When we finally get there it's busy. The people, who were there with us upstairs, somehow have gotten down and some of them seems to have woken up and are a bit shaken up and making some noise. There are also people who are here for other reason and are noisy. Doctors and nurses are all over trying to care for them. One of the doctors a male sees us and comes running over.
"Atem! Yami! Thank god you're alright! When I heard there was a shooting in the pediatric ward I got worried."
I take a moment to study him. He is a man standing at about 5'10. He also has short blond hair. Although his bangs are slightly long. And he has wide green eyes.
"We're alright Abe, the police came in time,"
Atem says.
"Well we have the other people who were with you and they're pretty shaken up. Which is understandable."
It's then he looks down at me then looks back up at Atem and says,
"let get you three checked out."
We are then led to one of the beds. Yami helps me on to the bed and Abe says,
"common, I'll take you both to a bed."
"I'm fine,"
Atem says.
"I'm ok too,"
Yami also says.
"I just want him to be checked out,"
he continues.
"well, he will but you both still should be looked over. But how did he even get involved anyway,"
Abe asks.
"Well…,"
Yami starts.
"I'm telling the truth,"
we hear a voice yell. We look and we see a women coming out of a room and a nurse trying to calm her down.
"Please calm down."
"No it really happened! A boy with horns really did take those boys down."
As soon as she said that, Yami and Atem tensed. I'm starting to get a little on edge as well. 'She couldn't have saw that much could she?'
"There were chars flying and they were being held in mid air,"
she continues. It is then that she turns her head and sees me. Her eyes widen,
"that's him! That's the boy. That's the monster!"
Rose: uh oh. That's not good. Well there you go. I hope you liked it and please feel free to review.
