Amnesiac from Kamelot today.
« Hey Blake? » Yang started, nervously fidgeting with the black ribbon on the little bow she was holding.
Turning to her, Blake tilted her head to the side questioningly. Resisting the urge to bite her lips, Yang simply handing her the little cardboard box. She had hesitated long enough and now she couldn't backpedal. But still that was a bit risky. Especially since Blake had come back only a few weeks ago.
The sound of the box opening got her out of her worried thoughts as her brain paused, just waiting for Blake's reaction.
"Yang?" she said, slowly retrieving the collar from its package. "It's lovely, you didn't have to"
Rubbing the back of her neck, she tried to mutter something like "it's nothing" while just drowning in her own words. She was still surprised at how embarrassed and shy she could be when it came to Blake… Even for something as simple as a dual collar. Yeah, dual, since her puny side couldn't help but chose a Yin-Yang symbol, one of those slightly kitsch dual pendants with tiny magnets.
Blake, as calm as ever, smiled before tying her part of the collar on her neck in swift movement, then placing the yin on Yang's neck. Smiling, the blonde was about to say something stupid, but she was interrupted by Blake's lips softly placed on hers.
"You're cute when you blush"
She got back to reality, only to notice that in the process their pendant had taken their fused form, the magnets automatically attracting the other half.
Running in the dark, gritting her teeth to contain the sudden outburst of pain in her right side, Yang tried to focus on the situation at hand rather than her peaceful, but irrelevant memories. She had a mission to do.
Her fist connected with a jaw, breaking through the bone mask and the aura alike. She had no more aura to protect her, but by now she was hitting about fifth times as hard. If you didn't count the anger she was putting in each and every hit. She made her way fast in a dark subway crowded by White Fangs member, leaving behind her a trail of blood and broken bones for Weiss and Ruby to pick up. Right now, there was one and one thing only in her mind: the small flickering point on her Scroll's screen, indicating Blake's location.
She felt stupid, for thinking that Blake had ran again. For assuming the worst already. She felt stupid because she had needed a ransom demand to realize that Blake needed help. And she drowned her frustration and stupidity in the hurt noises made by poor people that tried to stop her.
She finally made her way to a larger room, not even thinking about the weird architecture of the place, nor the arrogant smile on the giant's face standing in one corner of the room. Blake was here, tied to a chair, blood dripping from a corner of her mouth, looking fiercer than ever. Yang made a few steps toward her, feeling a storm of emotions take over her heart… And then the giant had the stupidity to interpose.
He was about to expose his machiavellian plan or do some evil genius speech of some sort judging by his satisfied smile. But his plans were interrupted when he received a low-kick in the balls and a right hook in the jaw, sending him flying against the wall before he could do anything. He should have known better than to block an angry Yang's path.
"Blake? Blake I'm here! Are you okay?" She finally said, surprised that she still had a voice, after hours passed in an angry mutism.
"Yang? How… how did you find me?"
Pointing at the yang pendant still on her collar, yang showed the localization on her scroll screen.
"I know it's not really legal, or polite… but I had a tracking device installed in the pendant. I would never follow you if you decided to run… but I just was paranoid and wanted to be sure that you would be safe even if you did. I hope you're not mad…" she said, rapidly untying her
She was expecting a deceived scold, an angry yell, anything for doing such privacy invasion. Instead, Blake rushed to her arms as soon as she was free, and their pendant softly clicked together.
Each half never apart from the other for long.
Done! Bit late, couldn't focus on writing… Got myself a new Zelda! So yeah, haven't been the most focused of writers today…. Sorry
Anyway, hope you enjoyed it, and see you tomorrow!
