Hay thanks for the last review…8- )
Chapter 4 (Those mysterious men look suspicious)
"You don't have to worry about a thing Cagalli…leave that up to me and I promise you everything's going to be alright…I'll make sure nothing bad happens and while I'm around nothing or no one will harm you even over my dead body I'll make sure of that."
Athrun said placing an arm around Cagalli for comfort and while he was shifting around to get comfortable he accidentally bumped the key in the ignition and it then switched on the car radio and a particular song was about to start.
"That was what I was afraid of…" Cagalli thought of what Athrun had just said and then at that she closed her eyes for a brief moment and Athrun and her relaxed to the song that was playing.
Song (Tomorrow by Avril lavinge) – Slow peaceful song.
The forest smelt of moss and mystery. Kira didn't have any clue what he would do when he would arrive at this certain house he was bound to go to again but this time for reasons.
(Kira's POV)
There, that stood before me was none other my uncle Kisaka's home that still smelt like sweet tarts and also the aroma of soft, freshly baked sponge cake…I still remember when Cagalli and I would always grab a whole handful of his delicious choc chip muffins whenever he wasn't looking, we were pretty always up to mischief then and it always makes me laugh thinking about it.
You could say our uncle was the domesticated kind of guy that would always be pleased to cook up a storm of all sorts of goodies when we would stop bye to say hello. That homely scented smell would always bring back good memories from the past but right now that wasn't what I was here for.
Slowly I took the next step holding my breath hesitantly feeling like I was nervous but within seconds before I could knock on the door it had opened revealing my astonished uncle curiously looking at me with a smile.
(End of Kira's POV)
"Kira…What brings you here so late?" Said a tall concerned uncle Kisaka.
"It's not late at all uncle, its only 9:45 besides the reason I am here is because I think its time I heard the truth and when I mean the truth I mean nothing but the whole truth.
"I have no idea what you are talking about Kira? What could I possibly not be telling you…" he's eyes had averted Kira's closing the door behind him.
"I know part the truth about Cagalli and don't act dumb with me because I know what's going on and I've come here for answers uncle" his voice was deep and fearless that even himself would be scared of.
"I guess there's no point in denying it now, well it all started when…" Kira's uncle had began to tell him the whole story from the beginning and he had also told him that he was one of the bodyguards that was hired to be Cagalli's uncle undercover.
"So it's true then, mother was right when she said Cagalli's life is threatened" Said a depressed Kira dropping his gaze to the ground.
"I know…and it seems we have another serious situation at hand"
"But how can this suddenly happen, why Cagalli…she must be so terrified right now and there's nothing I can do at this moment to help her through this" Kira was sobbing in-between his words as he leaned his arms on the kitchen counter and began to tremble in fear for his sister and the situation she was in.
Kisaka had placed a cool firm hand on Kira's shoulder "Yeah it must be hard on her now so don't blame yourself or anything because it's going to be fine and I'm sure Athrun is helping her through this difficult time as we speak" while he took two soda cans from the freezer offering the other one to Kira.
"I know but as long as she is far away from here …thanks" said Kira accepting the cold soda from his uncle. "Yeah he's a good guy and I couldn't have asked for a better one…but wait! How do know Athrun is with Cagalli right now? He had said placing his soda can on the counter he was leaning on.
"So it seems you don't know Athrun is also one of the bodyguards hired this year to protect Cagalli during the times at school…oh and what do you think we bodyguards don't keep in contact or something" he said making his last statement sound sarcastic.
"WHAT! You're serious? I wounded why Athrun was so strange when ever he was near or around Cagalli and I thought it was because he was crushing over her big time but never in my life would I thought he was her bodyguard" Kira had taken a stool out and sat next to his uncle Kisaka.
"Let's just hope the both of them are alright and Athrun has taken your sister to a safe haven plus I trust him to take good care of her" he made a long sigh after he took a huge sip from his soda.
"That goes the same for me though I just hope she is doing well mentally" Kira said squashing his empty can and throwing it into the rubbish bin.
(Cagalli's POV)
The rain had began to hit hard like a grain of rice falling from the dark still night in a metal bucket that was the size of the whole country side and I couldn't help but stop and stare in the middle of the rain…I mean my thoughts were lost in a world of nothingness just a blank stare into the open night but Athrun quickly snapped me out of it from the mention of my name twice.
(End of POV)
"Cagalli could you please come inside with me…I need to book in for the two of us and you shouldn't stand in the rain , you'll catch a cold like that" before Cagalli could say anything Athrun had grabbed her hand pulling her along side with him out from the rain.
"Just wait here…I'll be back with our room number and pass, here sit there" said Athrun placing Cagalli gently on the sofa covering her with his warm black jacket.
"Cagalli was shivering, "How could I be so dumb standing in the rain like that and Athrun was so gently kind to give up his jacket for me" Thought Cagalli blushing at the thought.
"Thanks Athrun…" said a sweet like angel voice that made Athrun's heart melt over and over again when she would say his name so innocently.
"No problem, you just stay here and keep warm…I'll wont be long"
Cagalli couldn't help but feel sad when Athrun just left her alone even if it wasn't going to be that long he was away for.
Just around the corner Athrun was almost about to fill in the information form he was given to pay with his credit card with when he sensed something wasn't right and he felt uneasy for some odd reason.
Being the curious Cagalli she was she watched two strangely looking people whispering to each other as they came in from the outside passing the entrance room and so she decided to walk behind them curiously exploring as she went along.
In a matter of no time Cagalli was lost in the huge Hotel she was wondering in and she couldn't seem to retrace her steps back because every passage and walkway looked the same.
(Cagalli's POV)
"Dam it!I knew this would happen and I bet Zala would go bananas if he knew I didn't wait were he told me to and now I just have to remember what number room I went past from the main entrance…
I think it might have been down here, 16 left, 15 right, 14 left, 13 right…" thought Cagalli as she was walking anxiously down the passage way figuring out were the bottom of the main entrance was.
(End of POV)
Not paying attention Cagalli smacked straight hard into the two men that she was behind earlier and out of no were she was grabbed by the arm by the shortest arrogant one that looked like trouble.
"HAY LET GO OF MY ARM YOU UGLY BAFFOON!!!" shouted surprised amber eyes.
"Watch were you are going cheeky face…hay if it isn't the feisty Cagalli Yula Atha isn't this a surprise" said the short buff man with a sneaky grin on his face.
"What's that got to do with you anyway who I am? Let go of my arm you creep!!! She shrugged her arm.
Cagalli was battling to break free from his grip until it happened so fast…in a blink of an eye her night and shinning amour had appeared in an instinct and kicked him in the pit of his stomach leaving him to fall on his knees and gasp for air.
The other guy had made his move on Athrun but he was too quick to even leave a scratch on him. This made the other guy so angry that he hobbled up from the ground and tried to lay a punch for Athrun's stern face but with no luck he failed poorly leaving his whole arm twisted by Athrun's swift reflexes. Eventually Athrun grew tired of this play fight that he knocked both of them out leaving them unconscious on the cold ground.
"Cagalli are you alright? He didn't hurt you right…"Asked concerned deep emerald eyes as he scanned her up and down with them.
"It's alright…my arm's fine" replied a scared blonde.
"Don't ever scare me like that again…" and then Athrun pulled her into a tight embrace that made her feel so safe and secure in his soft warm arms.
"I'm just glad you came because I don't know what they would have done to me if you hadn't showed up in time.
"I know …I could sense trouble far away so I came back looking for you and that's when I heard you yell something like 'let go, my arm, ugly buffoon' so I came running to your aid.
"Thanks…can you believe the nerve of those jerks and to think of it how do they know who I am even my last name as Yula Atha?"
"I don't doubt for a second if they were, you know who…sent out to kidnap you."
"Well if they were, you know…cough, cough then what do you think we should do? Cagalli asked expecting Athrun for a solution to their problem.
"There's nothing we can do tonight but I think its best if we go somewhere I know we could be safe for the night"
Athrun firmly grabbed her hand and lead the both of them to the car along with keeping his eye's alert for any strange suspicious things that might catch them off guard.
"Here get in…" Athrun then walked around the car and got in himself.
Soon Athrun started car started and reversed out the Hotel leaving the air to eat his dust.
"So where're we going to go…there's no place we can go to than that's closer than three hours away from here and now the nearest hotel is about ten minuets behind us?"
"I have a dear friend that lives in a holiday cottage about an hour away from here and she usually goes there to be out in the open and have some time by herself which she hardly ever gets back at home but I'm sure she won't mind a bit of company for the night" Stated Athrun as he took a quick glimpse of the time from his digital watch.
All that came from Cagalli was a nod and through out the whole time there was silence between the both of them but soon the hour journey had came to stand still and Athrun had pulled in right beside the cottage that was dead silent.
I enjoyed this chapter lets just hope you will…I've started chapter five already and it's going to be crazy 8-D, something happens or should I say someone gets a big shock (ZIP!) OR let's say an unexpected surprise again happens.
