Hide And Go Kill

Part 2

Their fingers brushed as they their hands drew closer together. Suddenly, Lucy's eyes caught something wrapped around his thigh and her eyes instantly went to check his arm. Nothing. Her eyes widening in realisation she snapped her hand back, her other hand sheltering it protectively.

"Lucy? What's wrong?" The sweet voice asked. It made her sick to think that someone would do that.

"You're not Carter." She wasn't asking him if he was or not. She knew.

"What?" He sounded genuinely surprised and hurt, but Lucy saw the glimmer of anger flash through his eyes. "Of course I am? Who else would I be?"

Lucy slowly rose to her feet and narrowed her eyes at 'Carter'.

"You're not. We're the red team, not the beige. And plus, Carter keeps his on his arm, stupid." Now his eyes narrowed and he watched as Lucy's eyes flicked down to look at his thigh, were his sash was tightly bound. He had made a stupid mistake. Oh well, time for plan B.

"You're right, Blondie." His face twisted and slowly transformed into his real one. Lucy felt her insides tighten. He had to be no more than sixteen. He was just a kid.

He smirked.

"But it's too late, anyway. Now! Hiro!" Suddenly, something grabbed her from behind. How? All that was behind her was a wall!

Flicking her gaze to the side, she noticed an arm protruding from the rock, wrapped tightly around her neck. Damn! The sixteen year old in front of her pulled what looked like a dagger from his pocket and edged closer to Lucy.

She squirmed in the grip of the man in the wall, but it was no use, she just ended up gasping for air as her assailant drew ever nearer, knife glinting in the light of the torch.

"And I was planning on giving you a quick death." He said, his voice swimming with mock pity. "Now, which part should I cut first?"

She couldn't do anything. Nothing. She was weak. Weak, weak, weak! She was going to die here and doom Carter as well! Why couldn't she be like Natsu? Even Happy was stronger than her! Damn it! She squeezed her eyes shut, small tears trickling down her face.

Suddenly, a loud roar pierced the silence, followed by a high pitched cry of pain. Lucy's eyes snapped open and she watched in horrified fascination as blood spurted from her former attacker's wrist and blood flooded the water. There was a huge black beast in front of her; it's long, sharp canines dripping with crimson sanguine.

The beast turned its head to the side and narrowed its eyes at the arm locked around Lucy's frail neck. It snarled, its green eyes alight with anger.

"C-Carter?" She had barely left her mouth when she all of a sudden realised what she was saying. Carter? This beast? N-No…

"Look Lucy!" His voice was too happy for this situation. "I'm a doggy!"

It was definitely Carter. No doubt about it. Lucy found herself smiling through her tears – she was so happy to see him, even if he did look like something from the city zoo.

"You idiot…" She sobbed. But then, her happy spell was shattered as the grip on her neck tightened and she gasped. She had completely forgotten about the man behind her.

"Don't get too happy, girl." The voice said, seemingly muffled by some sort of mask. "I'm much stronger than the kid over there."

Said kid looked up, his beige piece of cloth tightly wound around the wound on his wrist. But judging from the blood loss, he wouldn't last more than an hour. Lucy felt a pang in her heart. It sickened her that such a young boy would be entered into this thing.

Carter growled again and lunged for the arm wrapped around Lucy's neck, but, the opponent was quick and pulled Lucy backwards, dragging her body through the thick wall as if it was liquid. Carter bared his teeth ran faster, but when he got to where Lucy had been, all that was there was the wall, back to its natural state.

Carter transformed back into his human form and cursed. Damn, now he had to try and find her again. He turned and ran down the tunnel he had come from, leaving behind the injured child. There was no use helping him now – anyway, he was the enemy, as much as it made Carter swim with guilt.

He had to hurry and find Lucy alive.

"Come and seek me, little doggy..."

So now Carter - who can transform into a wolf! - has to go an find Lucy, who is in the hands of a physco who wants to kill her. Things just can't go right for the red team, can they? I'll probably update tomorrow, so look forward to it! This game won't last as long as the last, because its kinda boring when you know who's going to win.

My brothers home from uni and is going to do the honours of choosing our next two oc teams who are going to fight!

(Again, sorry about the shortness...)
