Chapter 3

Note: Don't refuse people with weapons continued

~Kahlan's POV

My goodness, my head hurts like hell. Did I fall of the bed again? Well, whatever is under me is soft and squishy kind of like my bed but less room to move around. So, I couldn't have fallen of my bed. Did I fall asleep on the couch again?

Groaning, I bring my hand up to my head as I slowly sit up. I groan a little more as it feels like the room spins. Slowly I open my eyes wondering why the evil sunlight isn't shining brightly in my face like it does every evil morning.

With a shrug, I look down at myself. I'm wearing wet muddy clothes. Yuck, and now I realize my ankle feels sore. Wait a minute, those people, or monsters, whatever came after me. Or was that all a dream?

Looking around the room I notice a total of nine people, at least that's what it looks like; it is hard to tell with such little light. Holy hell it wasn't a dream. Okay I need to keep calm and figure out what to do before Laura gets home. I have to keep her safe. Wait a minute why am I still alive? I thought they would have me killed by now.

"Kahlan," I hear Laura call out. My eyes slightly widen as I turn in the direction I hear her voice. "So you were asleep."

"What are you doing here," I ask jumping off the couch. Immediately my ankle starts hurting but I ignore the pain. My priority is to protect Laura.

"I'm finished with work, duh," she replies like it's the most obvious answer.

"If I were you," says a voice from behind as I feel something cold being pressed to my neck. "I wouldn't be turning your back to us."

I slightly raise my right foot to ease the pain in my ankle then freeze. It wouldn't do me any good if I get myself killed and leave Laura unprotected. Okay, I need to analyze the situation. My sword, which I was an idiot to drop, is most likely still out in the rain. Then there are the ones that are in my room. With the speed of these people I won't be able to make it to my room to get another weapon, definitely since I'll be hoping on one foot.

Obviously these people have weapons. The proof is the weapon being held to my throat. So engaging them in some sort of hands on combat is out of the question. Plus, there's nine…ten now seeing as there someone standing behind Laura holding a weapon as well. We're totally out number and they would overpower us.

I could scream but that would cause more damage than help us. With a sigh I let myself relax. Well since I'm not dead yet and neither is Laura that means they want something, otherwise they would have killed us by now. What could they want though?

"Are you listening," asks the voice as it presses the weapon harder against my neck. I feel it slightly break skin and blood rush to it. Hmm…that voice sounds familiar. Oh, I know it's the guy that commanded me to open my eyes.

"Honestly, no I wasn't listening," I reply. Dammit now isn't the time to act sarcastic. I need to do what I always do. Hide all and any emotion. Taking a deep breath I let myself relax even more.

"Just fucking kill her and be done with it," says what's-his-face-number-one.

"Shut up," says what's-his-face-leader. I only call him that because he seems to be the leader. I shouldn't assume this though but there's nothing I can do.

"Fucking lame," Number One says.

"Okay this joke is getting lame," Laura says. Poor innocent Laura doesn't realize this isn't a game, which is why I have to protect her. "Is this all on camera and going to be posted on YouTube? I don't think you'll get many views."

"Laura," I say slowly. She looks at me smiling. "This isn't a joke."

Suddenly the power comes back on. The living room becomes extremely bright. Squeezing my eyes shut, I bring my leg up and kick the man behind me. He grunts slightly removing the weapon away from my neck. I duck down opening my eyes and lunge myself over the couch. The person behind Laura –by the way they are wearing a familiar looking robe with red clouds on it- smirks. Glaring, I push myself off the floor towards the two of them.

"Don't let them get away Deidara," calls out Leader.

"I won't, yeah," replies Deidara. What a weird name.

"Go to hell," I say to Deidara while grabbing Laura's wrist. Quickly, I whisper, "go to my room now."

I push Laura to the side and away from the guy. His eye narrows on her and I jump for him not caring about the weapon looking knife in his hand. He moves out of the way and I twist my body using my momentum to fall on him. His attention moves away from Laura and moves to me.

"Go," I shout at her. "Don't worry about me." I then mouth to her 'get one of my swords to protect yourself with.'

Laura takes off down the hallway. I send a silent prayer to any God that cares to listen then turn my attention back to the person name Deidara. He glares then smirks at me as I try to knock him down to the ground.

"Go get the other girl," I hear the leader command one of the other people.

I can't allow that. Maybe I can use Deidara to throw into the other person. I rush towards Deidara reaching my arms out to grab anything, but instead he catches hold of my arm. I pull him forward to knee him but then I stop when I feel a sharp pain on the side of my ribs.

My eyes widen slightly as I say, "Ouch."

"Your own fault, yeah," Deidara says with a smirk. At the same time I see this blue guy rush down the hallway.

"Again," I reply with a glare as I look Deidara in the eye. "Go to hell." Quickly, I bash my head against his nose.

"The hell, yeah," he shouts pulling away from me and holding his nose.

I turn away from him to go chase after the blue guy when I feel something wrap around my waist. Looking down I notice that it's black and reminds me of threads. It lifts me up in the air causing the pain in my ribs to intensify. I start thrashing around trying to get loose when I get thrown and land back on the couch.

I go to quickly get up but freeze seeing the leader guy with the ripple like eyes leaning in front of me glaring. He holds the same type of weapon Deidara had and is pointing it at my throat. "Move and I'll tell Kisame to kill your friend."

"Whoa it fucking looks like she broke your fucking nose Deidara-chan," I hear Number One say.

"Shut the hell up, yeah," Deidara's muffles in reply and Number One just laughs.

My eyes look over to where I heard Number One speaking from and see a man wearing the same robe as Deidara; except he has no shirt on and has his robe wide open. In his hands his a long three bladed scythe weapon. He has slicked back silver-ish hair with magenta type of eyes and has a sadistic smirk on his face. Well his name has now moved from Number One to Albino.

Looking back at the Leader guy I notice more of his features. He has short orange spikey hair with purple-ish greyish ripple eyes. His nose, bottom lip and ears are all pierced. The only thing I have pierced is my ears and it's a helix piercing on each side.

"May I please sit up," I ask slowly.

Leader glares for a moment then he slowly backs away but keeps the weapon pointed at me. I sit up and fight back the gasp of pain from my rips. Looking down, I see the weapon Deidara had stuck inside me. Great, no way in hell I am moving that. It could cause more damage.

I go to look away until the weapon gets ripped out. My hands clench into fist as I bite down on my tongue. Looking up I see Leader now holding the bloody weapon. Grabbing one of the couch pillows, I press it to the wound to help stop the flow of blood. This sucks because I bleed freely a lot. It might take a minute before my blood decides it will stop coming out.

I look around at the other people in the room. There is the woman with blue hair that has a rose and amber eyes. A guy with black hair in a ponytail with red eyes, some dude with red hair and brown eyes. There is a tall guy with dark skin, brown hair, Christmas like eyes, and a mask covering his lower face. There's another guy that's equally half black and white with green hair and yellow eyes while being inside a Venus flytrap. The other person is wearing a swirly orange mask with one eye hole and each one of them is wearing the same robe.

"I'll give you whatever you want if you leave my friend alone," I say as I look back at the leader of the group.

"Fuck that we should kill you, yeah," Deidara says coming around from the couch. "Then we should kill your friend, yeah."

I glare at him, and then continue talking with the Leader. "Just leave my friend alone. That means no harming her in any physical, emotional and/or mental way. Killing her classifies as harming her so that isn't allowed either. Also, when I say you, I mean everyone that is part of your group. I know how people like you think. You give your word stating you won't do anything but then have someone else carry it out for you."

"Looks like she's got some brains in her," I hear one of them say.

I ignore the comment and continue staring at the leader with a blank expression. I have already given too much information about myself away. No doubt they have it figured out that Laura means a lot to me and they can use that to their advantage.

"You're going to do as we say and answer our questions," Leader says as he moves closer with the weapon. "If you don't we'll make you watch your friend get killed then kill you."

I just continue to stare with a blank expression. Meanwhile on the inside I'm worried and scared for Laura. I don't flinch as he once again holds the weapon to my throat. There's no point in refusing when there is a weapon pointed at you. The only thing I can do is hope that Laura is able to protect herself from the blue guy and that she found a way to sneak out and get some help.
