07 Ghost – Stop Running

Hold me

As fast as we could we ran true the castle. Behind us ran our parents.

"Run!Just run!", I heard my father scream.

Holding the hand of my brother thigh I ran and ran, through the halls of the castle of the country of Raggs.

"Onii-sama. How long...do we have to run, yet?", I asked. I was tired of this running and my little legs couldn't take it anymore.

"Just a little more. We have to get out of here", he answered and smiled at me with a charming smile.

I couldn't resist and had to smile back. His charming smile, it was the most beautiful smile on this world, I thought.

I immediately stopped when I heard a loud scream behind us.
My brother and I looked at each other, then we looked behind us and our eyes widened.

Soldiers had caught up with us and now they attacked our parents.

Mother had already fallen.

"Run! Damn it! Laura!Lauren!Run for your life!", father screamed.

"B-But dad-", I stuttered, near tears.

"Come on Nee-chan..", Lauren said and pulled me with him.

The last thing I saw was a tall soldier with black, spiky hair and black glasses. A wide grin was on his lips.

Then suddenly someone grabbed us and everything turned black.

Slowly I opened my eyes halfway, pulling my arm over my face. That dream...that wasn't only a dream. It was a memory of mine. A memory of the day I lost my parents in that war.

I thought a bit about the soldier. I knew him. This black hair and the black glasses. Especially this grin.

I opened my eyes fully. "Damn...it was him!"
I banged my fist on the bed. A small tear rolled over my face and then dropped onto the bedsheets.

Suddenly I felt a finger at my right hip. Immediately i jumped up throwing the one who just touched me to the ground next to my bed.

I blinked at the person. It was Hyuuga. "Who was what?", he asked, his voice lowered not minding that I pushed him to the ground.

Tears filled my eyes. "You! You and your other soldiers! You killed my parents!", I screamed.

I wrapped my hands around his neck and lightly squeezed.

"Oh, then you are maybe one of the cute twins I couldn't catch thanks to that assassin Ducan?", he asked.

"Why do you know him?", I growled while slowly squeezing his neck.

He grinned. "Let go of my neck, maybe I tell you then", he said.

I growled again, but didn't move.

He sighed a bit. "Come on Lau-tan. Let go of your master", he said.

I didn't give him any reaction. Just staring down. Tears rolled slowly down my cheeks and to the ground or on Hyuuga.

"You were a combat slave, right?", he asked then.

"You've seen the mark", I just said, trying to hold back hiccups.

"Yes...who made the scar above it?", he asked.

"Ducan...", I mumbled.

"Are there more combat slaves in the Raggs-Rebellion?", he asked.

"Yes. And now stop asking!", I said, my voice rising.

"Calm down, Laura", he said, set up, taking my hands from his neck and pulling me into an embrace.

"Killing me, won't bring them back, as well as screaming at me", he said.

I couldn't say anything. Just crying in his arms. No one of us said something.

Suddenly Pipo licked away some tears from my face. It tickled and I began to chuckle. "S-Stop it..Pipo..that tickles", I chuckled lightly.

"Pya~!", he just said cheerfully obviously trying to cheer me up.

"Say~...do you like that?", Hyuuga asked. I nearly could hear his smirk.

Then he began to tickle my cat-ears. I purred. It was nice, but...

"S-Stop that! I..I don't want that!", I pouted. I didn't want him to make me feel good.

"But your purring is so cute~", he thrilled grinning at me.

Suddenly the door was banged open.
We both, Hyuuga and me, looked at the door in shock. My eyes widened when I saw Ayanami in his right hand holding a white snake, fizzing in agony.

"First, what are you two doing there? Second, do you know this snake?", Ayanami asked.

At the first question I looked at Hyuuga. "It's your fault, so you answer the first question. And the thing whit the snake. Yeah I know her", I said.

Actually it was one of Namis four snakes. This ones name was Skully, the most important one out of all four.

Ayanami looked at Hyuuga. "Don't mind our position. We just had a serious conversation about Lau-tans past", Hyuuga said.

"That's it, hm...well, maybe this letter was for you?", Ayanami then asked and showed me a opened letter.

I grinned a bit. "It must be. So let me guess. You couldn't read what was written there, could you?", I guessed, knowing that Nami used cryptography, she and I made in the past.

Ayanmai nodded and gave me the letter, while I was standing up.

I took a quick look at it and grinned.
Nami wrote:

Hey Laura.

I'm pretty sure you're alive. If not you're not yourself. Whatever they do to you or whatever you have to do now, remember all the promises to Ducan and try to survive.

Right now, the rest of us, who was with you, is hiding in the Barsburg church. Nero wants to become a bishop. This guy is really crazy. I can't believe it! But whatever, try to answer this letter, when you received it. Together we find a way how you can get out of there.

Yours Nami.

I disrupted the piece of paper, threw it into a bin next to a desk and then looked at Hyuuga and Ayanami.

"Nothing important. My friend seems a bit worried, that's all. Very well then. So, what was that about work, yesterday, Major Hyuuga?", I asked innocently.

"Oh, right. Let's go", he said.

"But before you work. Put on this uniform", Ayanami said and threw a uniform at me, while letting go of Skully. The snake immediately crawled over to me.

In disgust I looked at the uniform. Did I really have to wear this? Damn it. I really don't want that, but what else should I do?

Didn't I say myself that I rather work for them then die on them? Why did I even though about that?

A bit growling to myself I nodded and after Hyuuga and Ayanami left, I changed into the uniform.

Then I wrote a answer for Nami, gave it Skully, knowing that she would know how to vanish from this place and then went to the office.

It was really busy in the office. It seems like all Black Hawks were present.

I cleared my throat and I got the right attention. Konatsu noticed me and waved at me saying I should come over to him.

Smiling I went over to him and looked above his shoulder. "Seems like many paperwork. Best work in the world, don't you think?", I asked with a sarcastic undertone in my voice.

Konatsu nodded and sighed.
I set myself next to Konatsu. "All right. Then let me help you!", I said cheerfully. "You seem really into it", Konatsu noticed.

"Ah...well...that's...it's better for me to do paperwork then anything else. Anything else would probably be troublesome in any way..you see...like they ask me out about the rebellion or whatever they have in common. So you can say, this is more or less a excuse for me being busy", I said, lowering my voice and grinning a bit.

"Ne, Hyuuga, is that the girl you captured?", a loud, young voice asked.

When I looked up I saw a small boy, with pink, plaited hair. An eye patch covered his right eye. His other eye was a dark pink and looked curious at me.

Behind him stood a really tall men, taller than Hyuuga. He had short, spiky blue hair and light blue eyes.

Hyuuga, standing next to Ayanamis desk and licking at a lollipop, grinned at the small boy.
"Yes, she is. She is cute with this cat-ears and the tail, isn't she?", he asked.

The boy looked at me and nodded a bit. "Never seen someone like that", he said wondering.

"But there are a lot more of my kind", I said, smiling gently.

"There are? I didn't know that. Did you know that, Haruse?", he asked the tall man behind him.

The tall one shook his head. Seems like he didn't know as well.

"And you're part of the Black Hawks. I thought you all would know that there are many human-cats, especially in the Raggs-Rebellion" ,I said, playfully arrogant. "Well whatever. What are your names?", I asked and looked curious at the two.

"Hehe~ I'm Kuroyuri and this is my Begleiter Haruse", the little one said. "And you are?", he wanted to know.

"Laura", I smiled at him. Then I took some of the papers from Konatsu and began to work on them.

"Do you have to do Hyuugas work now, too?", Kuroyuri asked.

"So it seems~", I said while reading and writing.

After that I worked quietly with Konatsu. Since we were two, we could do it pretty fast.

So in the early afternoon we were ready with everything. All work was done. For this day that was.

I stretched myself and yawned a bit. This paperwork made me tired. Just sitting around and work on those papers. That never was the right work for me, but it was something I had to do in the rebellion, too.

"Say Konatsu-nii~. Can I take a little walk around. My legs are going to sleep", I said and looked at the blond with puppy eyes.

"Er...okay...go. But..er...that Konatsu-nii...", he stuttered.

"Shouldn't I call you like this?", I asked making a face like a child that wanted desperately some sweets.

"Er..no, it's okay", he sighed.

"All right. See ya~", I thrilled and went out of the office.

"Oukayy~ that wasn't normal for me, but whatever. Let's see. It's not like I won't do anything for the others", I mumbled to myself and took a look around.

Right now I was in a normal corridor. A Somewhat dark corridor, if you asked me.

But it didn't matter. The only thing I should though about was, what I should do. And right there an idea popped into my head.

With fast steps I walked through the corridors looking around and thinking about stuff. Everything for the rebellion, that was.

I wandered nearly an hour around thinking about strategies how to escape this place and on and on, that in the end I really got a headache.

"I really should stop thinking so much", I mumbled painfully rubbing my forehead.

"About what did you think so much? Maybe a escape?", a all to familiar, deep and dangerous voice asked behind me.

Slowly I turned around and looked into two piercing, violet eyes. "Er...not really. I thought about...yeah, nearly everything that popped into my mind...hehe", I said sweat dropping. Laura, that was a lame excuse.

It was obvious that one of my thoughts had to be about running away.

Both of us knew it and both of just looked at each other. Then he turned around, waving his hand, telling me to follow him.

I did as said and followed him, sighing to myself. Oh, where did I get myself into again?

In the end he just went back to the office with me. Konatsu and Hyuuga were the only ones left in the office.
"Keep an eye on her Hyuuga or she won't stay long here", Ayanami said.

"Sure, Aya-tan~", the glass-wearer said cheerfully and waved at me.

Setting myself next to him I looked at him.
Again he was eating a lollipop. "You like them?", I asked him. He just nodded grinning like an idiot.

"Say~ do you have spies here, maybe as students at the Barsburg Academy?", Hyuuga asked.

"Even if, I wouldn't tell. But I can clearly say, that in the moment, we don't have any of our spies out", I answered in a serious tone.

"You sure?", he asked.

"Absolutely!", I said.

"Then why did I see students with a combat slave mark with a scar on it, like you have one?", he asked.

I looked at him in question. How come? Ducan didn't send any of us to the Barsburg Academy in the last weeks. Everyone was at home. Well, what we called our home.

And only combat slaves that entered the Raggs-Rebellion could have get the scar from Ducan.

To explain the scar to those of you, who don't understand why we have it. It simply shows that we are no longer combat slaves. Well, that's what Ducan wants to show with it. Not all people take it that way, but we do.

"That's not possible", I said with not that much confident I should have had.

"Ah, maybe I can show you. I think I can remember which students that were", Hyuuga suggested.

"That won't be necessary. I'm totally sure, that I'm the only former combat slave here", I said.

"Former, huh?"

"What? Got a problem with that? I'm no longer a combat slave! Got it?", I shouted at him.

"Your losing your calm again", Hyuuga just said.

I growled at him and even Pipo was angry now, jumping on him and biting Hyuugas neck.

"Ow! That hurts! Stop that!", Hyuuga shouted and tried to pull Pipo away. But the little Fyulong was stubborn and bit harder into his neck.

"OUTCH!"

Let's stop here ;D
