Hell ran through the woods, fleeing the pestilential man trailing her. It had been a horrible battle with Weiss. Right when it was over, and they had chased off Weiss, Schwarz reared its ugly head and scattered Schreient. She had lost track of her sisters as one Schwarz member, in particular, took a fancy to her and attacked, the Berserker.
He was persistent and annoying. She had struck back, but he laughed at the wound she inflicted. Now he was pursuing her. He showed no signs of fatigue, but her lungs started to burn. She tripped and listened for Farfarello. No sounds. His footsteps were not behind her any more.
She stood, now worried he'd get the drop on her. A high pitched scream tore through the night. "Tot!" Hell called out. Another high pitched scream hit her ears.
She automatically ran towards the scream. In a slight clearing she saw Tot flung over Farfarello's shoulder; she was unconscious. "Let her go, you evil man!"
He gave her a half smile. "I promised Nagi a present before we start a plague on the world to wipe your kind out." He flashed a knife at her. "Let me go with her, and we'll keep her safe. Fight me, and I'll leave her here to suffer with you."
She shivered at his aplomb. "What is Schwarz planning?"
"Total chaos," Crawford answered, stepping from the shadows. "Tot can be one of the lucky ones."
"You're both mad."
"Choose now. You know we never bluff," Crawford said.
"That plot were you stole the girl and your dark ritual. You have that ability now, don't you?" Hell asked, shocked Neu's reconnaissance was true.
"Yes. Feel fortunate I'm rewarding Nagi with his choice of a wife." With that, the two Schwarz members stole away in the night, Hell was frozen to her spot in horror.
