Kaito POV
Finally! Today is the day we escape! Today,our freedom will be granted back to us! Actually we've waited for a bit longer since Akaito was so slow at teaching the others ! Urgh...I bet those kids didn't listen much. Whatever, I planned everything to perfection and I'm getting us out of here! Alright, so we saved some of the food from before, everyone can run and I guess we can get going...Someone tugged my shirt,more like the piece of fabric I'm wearing. It turned out to be Akaito.
"What do you want ?! You should be teaching stuff!"I exclaimed.
"Yeah I know….but Kaito, are you sure we can make it…you know out alive…all of us…you, me ,those kids ?!"he asked timidly.
I can't believe my idiotic, light-headed brother of mine said that! We've been through so much missions worse than this! Who does he think I am?!
"The heck is that for ?! Are you saying my plan is a joke?! If you think so, then don't follow us!I don't need weaklings!" I probably scared him but whatever.
"But Kaito, some of these kids are weak unlike us ! "he sniffled
"You whimp ! You just want them alive so you can get your reward! You don't know pain so you're chickening out!" I replied
"…Kaito"he mumbled
"Just don't worry…uuh….big bro Kaito will make sure you're fine,'kay? So stop crying and act like a man for once!" I thought I'd give him a bit of tough love. At least that would get to him.
"O-ok , I trust you big brother !" he stammered with a small smile pulled on his face.
…
Only an half an hour left, we have to make sure the whole mansion is asleep. Alrighty then, guess I'll just re-run the plan in my head. Ok, first off me and Akaito slowly and quietly break the lock. Pff, piece of cake! Then the younger ones get out first and make a run for it. Hopefully all of them will remember where to go. Thank god, some other dweebs are actually smart enough to figure out where the exit is! Then if we wake up some guards, me, Akaito and some other punks will hold them back as long as we can to let the others escape in time. This plan shouldn't fail, I mean it's the typical strategy you see in every movie! Am I right?
…
Its go time!
I start making my way to the door with my brother trailing behind. All of the other kids are watching in silence waiting for their chains to break. I take a peak towards Luka who encourages me with a lukewarm smile. Yeah, I'll do it for her, I still didn't get to say sorry properly. This will fix it for sure.
"Here I go!" as I summoned some water,I concentrated and instructed it to go in the lock. I frozed it and the lock broke.
I turned around and gestured the others to get out as quietly as possible.
…
Only a few corridors left to travel, for now everything is going as planned. I glance behind to try and find Luka,I hope she isn't too scared. There,I see her! She's with the pinkie-head. What I'd give to be at his spot-Stop it! Focus! I need to lead this group of wannabes out! Or else the landlady will kill me for sure!
"HEY THE SLAVES ESCAPED, SOUND THE ALARM!"
Oh great, juuuuuust great! I felt yelling at the jerk who caught us all the unwanted attention. We had to hurry:
"Quick, make a run for the exit!" I ordered "Akaito, Pinkie and I will hold them off. GO!"
"Hey, my name isn't Pinkie…"said Pinkie
"Do I look like I care?!" I scolded
"At least, have some respect for your senpai."
What?! Seriously, he's talking about respect now?!
"You think th-" I was cut.
"Guys watch out!" warned Akaito.
A few brooms flew above our heads as we ducked to avoid them. Plates were being thrown at us. I sighed, guess this is why I never want to play as the ninja butler. I dodged all of the "projectiles" in all my grace.
"Will you stop moving, you little brat!" exclaimed a maid.
"I ain't a brat, and I'm definitely not LITTLE!" I knocked her out with a quick, powerful water whip.
"Esmeralda has fallen!" yelled a butler " Someone cover her!"
Ohoho, so this maid is important, ey? Well I hope they don't mind if I use her as my hostage. I grabbed her by the head while Akaito held a fire spear at her throat.
"One single move and she gets it!" I proclaimed!
"What are we to do?!" asked another butler.
"I-I don't know…We can't risk Esmeralda's life or the master will be outraged." replied a blond-haired maid.
"You should let us go then!" spoke Pinkie.
"It could work…I mean Esmeralda means more than the master's slaves…."
Wow, that guy was planning to let us escape?!
"NO,WE CANNOT LET ANYONE LEAVE!"shouted a maid
Shoot and here I thought these were nice dweebs.
"She is correct."
…
"Lady Esmeralda, you are no longer unconscious!"
She smirked " Well I am the strongest member of this mansion, am I not?!"
Oh god, why am I shaking?! I'm suppose to be proud, I'm suppose to be winning this. So why? Why are we all trembling?!
Psuiiiiiitttt…
What's that noise?!
I'm late, I'm leaving you on a cliffhanger….*slap*
