Chapter 3
"You were suppose to catch him." I told Billi as I got to the bottom. She laughed nervously.
"Sorry. Do you think he's ok?" She asked. I shrugged.
"Who cares? Grab him and run." I told him, picking him up and throwing him over my shoulder. We started running down the tunnel.
"Do you want me to help?" She asked, falling into step with me. I shook my head.
"He's not that heavy." I told her. She nodded and we ran down the tunnel in silence for about 20 minutes.
"Do you think this is far enough?" She asked.
"Probably. Go up there and check, though." I told her, pointing at the closest opening. She nodded and jogged towards it while I stayed where I was, waiting. She climbed up, opened the top alittle bit and peaked out. She stood there for a moment and then turned back to me. She was smiling and was about to say something, but was cut off. The top flied opened. She spun around just as a hand apeared and grabbed her hat. She screamed as she flew out the hole.
"Billi!" I shouted. I put Scott down, still passed out, and ran towards the hole. I jumped through and looked around me. Billi was gone, but I could here her screaming. I ran towards the noise, but I didn't get any closer to the noise. It just got farther.
"Lee!" I heard her scream. I tried running faster, but I was getting too tired. I was slowly starting to slow down. No! Come back! Get back in my head, damn it! I thought as I tried not to slow down. I can't! We have to be close to each other! Hurry! She thought. I can't! I'm too tired! I thought back. I heard her scream. Just then, something ironic happened.
Time seemed to slow down as I tripped over my own two feet. Shit. I thought as I watched the world tip over and my face colided with the pavement. I layed there, confused at what just happened, as I listened to Billi's frantic screams grow farther away and soon faded. I sat up on my knees and stared in the direction the screams disappeared. I just sat there for a few minutes, feeling nothing. Soon, I felt a tear fall out of my eye and after that one, more started coming and I started to cry.
Billi? Where are you? I thought. I waited a few minutes, but no reply came. Billi? Billi? Can you hear me? What happened? Where are you? I asked. Still, no reply. Ok, Lee. Just be rational. Maybe she just fainted. It's ok. Just go look for her. I thought to myself. I slowly got up and started walking towards where her screams were. I walked for a few minutes, then I remembered about Scott. What should I do? I thought to myself. Suddenly, I felt a pain in my back and I flew forward. I hit the ground hard and landed on my back.
"What?" I muttered as I opened my eyes and looked up. Scott stood over me, giving me a hateful look. Wait just one minute here! It's his fault for Billi getting kidnapped! If she wasn't so nice, then we wouldn't have had to drag him with us and he wouldn't have slowed us down. She'd still be here. I thought to myself while stareing back up at him. Slowly, my stare turned into a glare. I jumpped up, quickly turned and punched him square in the cheek. He yelled and flew back. He landed on the ground a few feet away with a loud thud.
"Ow." I heard him mutter. I walked over to him as he slowly got up. He was standing when I reached him. I glared at him.
"You know, it's your fault that she's gone. If she hadn't insisted on bringing you with, we'd be long gone by now." I told him.
"Who?" He asked, forgetting his anger and looking confused. I sighed.
"Moron. Billi." I said. He still looked confused for a minute, but then his face lit up with realization.
"Oh, her. Well, good. She's the one that dropped me on the head so she deserves it." He said, like it was no big deal. I growled and punched him again, but not as hard. He staggered back. I hit him a few more times, making him stagger back each time. He ducked under my arm when I tried to hit him again and he tackled me to the ground, pinning me down. I struggled to get away, but, for some reason, I felt weak.
"What's your problem?" He demanded.
"She's gone! Your fault! What's not to get?" I yelled.
"How's it my fault! You're the ones who broke into my apartment!" He shouted at me. I started struggling harder, but my energy was fading.
"I don't have time for you! I gotta find her!" I shouted and knocked his arms under him, but instead of him rolling over like I had hoped he would, he landed on top of me.
"Get off you heavy jerk!" I shouted. He lifted his head and just stared at me for awhile. I glared at him. He quickly looked away and rolled off. I jumped up.
"I don't have time! I don't know what will happen if we're not together!" I yelled at him and started walking away. To my suprise, he started walking with me.
"Why are you following me? Go back to your apartment." I told him.
"Well, since I suppose this is partly my fault, I guess I should help you." He said and shrugged. I sighed and didn't say anything. I did need help. I could feel myself getting weaker. I glanced over at him. His bag was on his back and he looked the same, just with some dirt on his clothing.
"So, she's like, a part of your mind, right?" He asked. I nodded and kept walking. He was silent for a moment.
"Well, since she is a part of you, won't you die or get weaker or something without her?" He asked. I stopped for a minute, thinking. It made sense. I was feeling pretty weak. Maybe I will die without her. I thought to myself. I turned and looked over at him.
"I suppose you're right." I said, before falling over and blacking out.
Not a very good chapter, but atleast I updated. And I've been kinda busy lately. I was busy being cupid. And on friday, I plan on dressing up as cupid, just not wearing the diaper and I will still have clothes on.
