SAITO:
I really needed to find her quick, or else maybe Julio or someone else will find her.

I could hear some sounds not far away from me now.
Louise, I'm on my way, I will protect you! I thought as I ran towards the sound.

" Good afternoon" a dark voice said right next to me, when I stopped to catch my breath back.

I turned my head to the dark voice. It was a man, in uniform. This couldn't be good.

LOUISE:

" Well you see, Sweetheart, I need you, and I also need the important spells" Julio said simply and cupped my cheeks in his hands.

I tried to get out from his grip, but I couldn't, he was too strong.

" I don't know where they are!" I shouted and sighed.

" Liar!" Julio yelled, and hit me again.

I looked down at my feet, regretting that I left Saito. Saito and I could be with Christa, safe. But no, I had left, just to stop this thing.

" You have to tell me where they are, Cutipie!" Julio shouted to me, and threw me away.

I landed on my stomach, and I couldn't raise up again.
Tears rolled down my cheeks.

" UP!" Julio yelled and grabbed my hair and pulled me up.

I managed to stand for a second, but he pushed me back down.

" Tell. Me. Where. They. Are!" Julio shouted so loud that I had to put my hands on my ears.

" Never!" I mumbled, and he couldn't hear me.

" So, darling, you want to do this the hard way?" Julio bent down and whispered in my ear.

I cried hard, and shook my head. But I couldn't tell him about Christa. She would probably get hurt too.

" Hey Sir!" someone called far away to my right.

I didn't bother to look up. I just lay there, on the ground crying.

" I've found him!" the man said again.

Him? Please, don't tell me it's Saito!, I thought for myself. But that couldn't be possible, he was with Christa.

" Good,, maybe he will talk. My dear Louise refuse to tell me anything" Julio said and I could hear he sighed.

SAITO:
My head was really painful, and I couldn't see straight. It was a bit fuzzy.

" So, have you anything you want to say?" someone asked, but I didn't know if he asked to me, or someone else.

So I didn't respond, I just stood there, shaking. It felt like I could fall down on the ground every minute.
Someone sighed loud behind me. I guess it's the man who found me while I stopped to catch my breath.
And after he had said: Good afternoon, I couldn't remember anything. Everything was black, like I have slept.

" He isn't more useful!" another man yelled, and I could hear a CLAP.

Someone got hit, probably the man behind me. I couldn't see anyone else, except someone or something on the ground. But I couldn't see much anyway.

" Bring the carriage here!" the same man yelled again.
Finally I could recognize the voice, it was Julio. Louise's finacee, but we both ran away from him.

Someone pushed me down on the ground, hard.
I could hear some steps, and it sounded like horse-steps.

" Take him inside, I will my fiancee" Julio said, and I felt some hands pulled me up from the ground.

The man carried me, and placed me inside of the carriage.

I could finally see everything again. But I wished I didn't.
Right in front of me sat Julio. And on his lap where Louise laying. She was bleeding from her nose and lips. And her hair was a big pink mess!

Right now I just wanted to pull my sword out, and kill Julio. He had hurt Louise, and I hadn't protected her, like I promised her.

On my right sat a man, I have seen him before. It was him who found me, and probably hit my head.

Julio looked down on Louise all the time, and it really bugged me. He had hurt her, and now she was laying in his lap.

" So, I've finally found you two" Julio suddenly said, still looking down on Louise.

I sighed "I guess so" I mumbled to him, looking down on Louise too.

LOUISE:
My whole body hurt. But I was laying on something soft. Hoping it was Saito's lap.

I could feel someone eyes on me, so I decided to open my eyes to check who it was.

One blue and one purple eye looked down on me. I knew who it was. Julio was the only person I knew with one blue and one purple eye.

" Finally my dearest Louise is awake" he whispered down to me.

I gave him a angry look, but he just smiled.

I could still feel someone staring at me. So I looked around, wondering where I was.

And there, the love of my life sat. He looked down at me, with worried eyes.

" Saito..." I whispered and smiled.

Saito gave me a nice smile back, but Julio gave him a angry look, just like I have him earlier.

" So, my darling talk to you, but not to me" Julio said to Saito, like mumbled.

Saito just sat there, didn't know what to say or to do.

" Listen, Saito." Julio began and looked serious at Saito.

Saito gave him a quick nod.

" You and my dear Louise are going back to Louise's house. And I'm going to marry Louise, and you haven't a single thing to say.. You are going to be punished for running away with my girl" Julio said, he sounded evil.

I looked up at him, and I really wanted to hit him as hard as I possible could.

Saito nodded slowly and looked sad.
I looked down at my hands, then I looked at Saito.

" Why?" I whispered to him, and luckily Julio didn't noticed it.

SAITO:

I knew what Louise meant. She wondered why I came after her, she had done it just to save me. And I ruined it everything, but after all I was happy to be here with her.

I just shook my head, and whispered back " Later".
Louise nodded and smiled quick.

" Can you please let me go?" Louise asked Julio polite.

" No" Julio said simply and looked down at her and smirked.

Louise sighed heavily, and tried to get out of her grip. But I could see that she couldn't get away from him.

I could feel jealousy build up in me, seeing a boy I really hated and in his lap sat the girl I loved. And, it was more painful to see that Louise bled, and it was just his fault.

I sighed too, and closed my eyes, wanted to get away from here.

Suddenly the carriage stopped.

" Finally, we're here" Julio said and smiled.

He rose up from his seat, carried Louise in his arms. Like princess-style.

" Come on!" he said to me, and I raised up too, and followed him out of the carriage.

I could see Louise's house, and her family. Non of them looked very happy.

' This is going to be fun ' I thought sarcastic, and stepped out of the carriage.

PUH, finally finish with chapter 23!
