As I started to wake up I felt strange. The first thing I noticed was that Natsume wasn't next to me, the next thing I noticed was that it was still dark out. I sat up and glanced around taking in my surroundings. Everything looked okay, except for the fact that everything was so still and quiet. As I stood up I thought I heard a crack of a stick in the trees so I went to check it out.
"Natsume? Is that you?"
As I walked closer to the edge of the forest I noticed a silhouette standing in the moonlight. I took some more steps towards the strange figure trying to see if I knew the person.
"Excuse me, are you lost? Because so am I and maybe we could help each other find our way back."
The man started to turn around and I immediately stopped still in my tracks. "N-no, it can't be you. There is no way you could have gotten onto school grounds with out alerting the teachers." With that I took off running in the opposite direction.
I could hear his footsteps following closely behind, and I prayed that somebody would come to help me. "Natsume!" I called out.
As I was running I looked behind me and noticed more and more figures running behind me. While I wasn't looking in front of me, I tripped over a tree root and fell to the ground. When the men closed in on me I shut my eyes and called out for Natsume in my head. Just as the man was about to grab me, a great fire broke out around us.
"How many times do I have to tell you not to touch that idiot?" With out needing Natsume to tell me to, I climbed up off the ground and stood behind him.
"You are just a child. There is no way you can keep that fire going forever, and when it falters we will be ready to take that girl you so desperately try to protect."
With Natsume preoccupied with the men in front of us, another man came from behind and grabbed me putting his hand over my mouth to keep me from screaming.
"You are getting very sleepy." He whispered in my ear. I felt myself drifting to sleep and it took all my power to conjure up my Nullification Alice. When he thought I was asleep, I took him by surprise and lashed out punching him in the face.
He rubbed his cheek giving me a ghostly grin and said. "For such a little girl, you pack quite the punch."
"Natsume, there are too many people. What are we going to do?"
He backed up to me so that our backs we touching and whispered "Try to create a barrier using your Alice to keep them from attacking and we will make a run for it."
I nodded and put our plan into motion. All of the men were distracted by their Alice's that weren't and they let their guards down and we could make a run for it. Unfortunately, I was tired and couldn't keep my Alice going. They quickly caught up to us and knocked Natsume to the ground. He was hit unconscious so I went back to help.
The men took me by the arms and shoved us into the back of a van. All the windows were tinted so I had no idea where we were being taken. They drove around for hours, until finally they reached their destination. The back doors of the van were opened and I shied away from the blinding sunlight. My surroundings were a complete mystery to me and I hoped somebody would find us soon.
We walked for about half a mile with them shoving me forwards every few steps trying to make me move faster. After walking we arrived to what I assumed to be our destination. The building was large and made out of crumbling brick. The inside looked like it would come crashing down on us any second. They put Natsume and I into different holding cells next to each other so neither of us could help one another out.
"Now don't you go and try to escape little missy. All of the bars of the holding cells are made from a special metal made to resist any kind of Alice attack." He said walking away. Just as he was about to leave he turned around and said.
"Oh, and we have about four guards working for us with barrier Alice's. So nobody will be able to find you." With that said he left.
I slid down the bars that separated our holding cells and looked at Natsume. He looked pretty bad, there was dried blood on his face and he looked completely wiped out. Then again, I probably did too. I sighed and put my head on my knees when I felt somebody grab my hand.
My head shot up and I turned around to see Natsume's back against mine through the bars. We held hands through the bars for a few minutes before he spoke.
"Don't worry Polka, I will get us out of here if it's the last thing I do."
I laughed a dry laugh and said, "I hope so, I really do."
"Ruka is probably on his way right now with that gay teacher and some people that might actually help."
"Hey! No talking you two!"
Natsume and I looked at each other through the bars and he said, "Go to sleep Baka, I'll keep watch."
I nodded and fell asleep after receiving a reassuring from his hand to mine.
