BluePhantom15: Hey there again guys! Did you miss me? LOL, Nah, didn't think so : P
Sorry for the long wait, but I actually have a valid excuse! I sprained two of my finger, and couldn't type properly for two weeks! D :
Well, here is the next chapter. Hope you enjoy! ^_^, and if you don't, well I can always send my mogs after you :D (jk)
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING! If I did, Henri (SPOILER) wouldn't have died! (grrrr, smashes mog minion into door repeatedly)
Henri stormed into the room. He looked furious, and that was not a good thing for me. I just pray I would be able to keep my head. I gazed up at him nervously, a small bead of sweat dropped down my forehead.
"Hey," I said meekly.
He stared at me in disbelief.
"Hey? That's it? No crazy long range excuses? Have you seen the kitchen!" He yelled. I found myself wincing at that.
"What. Happened. Here.?" He demanded.
"Well, there was an incident.." I trailed off, not knowing how to explain the events that had occurred, without him locking me in a box for the rest of my life. I needed to think up an excuse and fast, because time was running out and Henri's patience was just about to blow sky high.
"I umm... I ahh..." Dang it! I couldn't think of anything. My brain was racing so fast I couldn't register any good thoughts. That was it, I was sunk.
Henri just stared, obviously waiting to hear my made up story. But I just couldn't think of anything. What was wrong with me? Majority of the time I was able to lie through my teeth. It was usually so easy for me. I had to do it all my life, so it has become like a sixth sense. So why all of a sudden now was I getting all cramped up? Sure Henri was intimidating at times, but it wasn't like I couldn't lie to him. I had done it a thousand times before. Mostly every time I broke something. But he usually always found out I was lying. It wasn't that hard, considering it was only the two of us, and no one else could have possibly done it.
"Well you see, there was this stray cat, and it was all alone so I brought it in the house and..." Man this was a bad excuse even for me. There was no way he would buy that. No stray cat could have done this much damage no matter how hungry or upset it was.
"Oh, so that explains why their is purple blood everywhere, and a giant mogs corpse on the floor." He said blankly.
Crap! I had completely forgotten that the mogs body was still in the kitchen! Well that did it. There was no escaping Henri's wrath now, and here I was getting my hopes up.
"I can not believe that you were so oblivious that you let a mog sneak into the house! What I can't believe even more is that you didn't call me for help right away!"
Dang, his voice was getting louder and louder, as his face started to grow an inhumanly shade of red. I didn't know what to say. What could I say? I would just have to ride it out.
"All those times I told you to keep a low profile! All those times I told you be cautious! Were those all wasted lectures? Tell me what I have to do to get through to you!" Henri asked, trying to keep himself as calm as he possibly could.
"Go pack your stuff," He said with a monotone voice, "We're leaving."
"Why?" I whispered, "I didn't get hurt. I can protect myself, I proved it by killing that mog without you. So, why?"
I waited.
Waited for him to reply.
Looking deeply into his eyes I could see something there. What was it? Disappointment? Remorse?
I couldn't even tell anymore.
"You may have gotten lucky this time but next time you might not be as lucky. I'm not taking that risk. Besides thanks to your brilliant action plan, the mongs probably already know our location. Now go, we're leaving."
With that he turned around and went back into the kitchen.
Something was boiling up inside of me. I don't know exactly what I felt. I think it was just a bunch of explosive emotions at once. Hate, rejection, sadness, it all seemed to come together in one giant outbreak. I couldn't take it anymore. No I wouldn't be dragged to another God forsaken town. I was done with all this running away crap.
"Yeah well you can go on ahead without me!" I yelled into the kitchen. I started to walk towards the front door to the house, making loud banging noises on the hardwood floor as I went. I was about to reach for the knob, when I felt a hand grab my wrist.
"John, this is no time for you to pull a tantrum. We need to leave now, hurry up!" Henri's voice spoke from behind me, and I felt myself being jerked roughly backwards by the wrist.
I used all my body power and jerked forward, hearing a slight cry of surprise from Henri. I then yanked my wrist from Henri's grasp and turned sharply around, almost cutting myself off balance.
Henri was watching me carefully at this point, no doubtfully making sure that I didn't pull anything rash. He slowly rose his arms up in the air in front of him, and preceded backwards a few steps, until he was at a safe distance.
"Look, I'm sure your tired after going through a life or death match with that mog, but we really need to get out of here before backup comes charging in here for our throats. If you want I'll pack your stuff, and you can take a nap in the car okay?" He said slowly.
"You don't get it do you? I don't want to go! I don't want to always be the one running away! All these years I've been running away from the mongs because I'm suppose to stay alive to protect a planet I've never even seen! Well screw that, because I don't care anymore!" I screamed, not knowing what had come over me.
"Hey! Show some respect! A lot of people died to save you! In fact the entire planet did! Does that mean nothing to you? Your going to make the deaths of thousands in vein just because you were to lazy to move every so often?"
"Every so often? We practically move every damn week!" I shouted at him, ignoring his glares. "I never get a say in what we do or where we go! This is MY life, and I should be able to live it the way I want to!"
"Well I'm sorry I haven't spoiled you enough my dear prince." Henri spat at me, "Next time I'll be sure to get us a nice big pink palace where we can live, and horses to ride off into the sunset every evening. I'll even build a nice moat around the palace. Maybe that will guard us against the mogs! And if not we can always call the royal guard!" Henri took a deep breath, exasperated from the speech he had just given.
That was it! The last string of clam had snapped like a twig. I was sick of hearing this guy talk. So I blew him away.
Literally.
I giant burst of pure blue energy blasted from my body, and hit Henri straight on. He flew backwards and a gigantic 'THUD' could be heard as his body smashed into the wall. He fell limply to the floor, his head hanging down, and his arms dangling from his sides.
"Henri! I'm so sorry, are you alrigh—"I cut myself off. Why was I apologizing? He had gotten what he deserved. It was his own fault for saying what he said. I was sick of him always thinking I would follow along with whatever he wanted. Well not anymore. Starting from here on out, I make my own decisions.
I checked to make sure Henri wasn't bleeding anywhere. Luckily, he was just in a state of shock. Once confirming he needed no medical attention, I headed towards the door. This time I was pretty sure no one was going to stop me.
I didn't know where I was going to go once I was out, all I knew was that I needed to get away.
Without further hesitation, I took the door knob, and swung it open. I was greeted with nothing but darkness, and a cool breeze. But that was fine by me. The more people that couldn't see me, the better. I took a step outside, and unto the creaky front porch. I could hear a slight stirring from behind me. Oh no, Henri was waking up! I had to get out of here!
I quickly ran out, and embraced the night sky, going as fast as my legs could carry me- and that was pretty fast.
The last thing I heard was a muffled voice shouting at me to stop, and a car engine booming to life, as I sped of into the night.
BluePhantom15: So what did you think? Sorry that it's not as long as the last chapter. Also, sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes you may have found.
