Chapter 5
The Start of The Journey
Len's p.o.v
What is wrong with this woman? First she tells me that I'll never be able to save my sister, than she started screaming and went to attack her master. Jeez, she's got a problem with her head.
She thrust her sword and started swinging it like crazy. She kept shouting, "You lied to me!" and I swore she looked like she was going to cry. She strikes her sword again and at the same time, a girl jump out.
The girl had two black pigtails and a smirk that makes people think that either she is a mad scientist or a crazy girl with a hobby that involves torturing. There was an eye patch on her right eye and she has a very huge, large, deadly, scythe… with pink ribbons and pink beads on the end. And yes, I was trying very hard not to laugh. I mean, pink? Not exactly the best color to decorate your perfect deadly weapon.
Then I saw Kaito pulling someone with purple long hair and a face that has what the hell is happening here written all over.
The first thing the woman did is shout, "RUN!"
You might've thought that we'll fight till the end or do something heroic, sorry, we didn't, we ran immediately. There was no way I'm fighting a crazy girl with a scythe that could make me laugh till I'm out of breath.
When we opened the door, we saw more soldiers…man, how much soldiers do they have anyway?
The woman threw a little knife to me. I caught it; it was just a simple knife with a leather handle and a blunt (but still hurts) edge. This is the perfect weapon to attack people without killing them, or to get yourself killed.
I tried knocking every soldier on the head with my knife, but she keep slashing everywhere and she didn't even care if she got wet of blood, the only thing I could think of is, is she even a girl?
We continued running, pass alleys, streets, markets, shops, houses until we've lose them. By that time, we were out of breath.
"Would…someone…please…tell…me…what…the…heck…just…happened...and…Kaito…I'm… going…to…kill…you…" the purple haired man said, probably Gakupo.
"Why…would…you…want…to…kill…me…I've…saved…your…life…for…god…sakes…"Kaito panted.
"Because…you…better…have…a…reason…to…find…a…little…kid…and…let…him…attack…Luka…while…you…came…to…save…me…and…do…you…know…that…we're…all…dead…if… Luka…catches…us?"Gakupo replied; wait…just because I looked like a kid that doesn't mean I'm little, I'm fourteen, okay?
"Yeah, he's got…a point. If Luka catches us…there's no telling…what'll she do to us…hey, kid…catch!" The woman threw something to me.
A sword, with a beautiful handle and a ruby on it, and it feels just right, not too light and not too heavy, and…
"WOW! Where did you get this? I don't remember seeing you holding this!" I shouted.
"Well…I picked it up from a store…"
"…" Everyone went silent and looked at her.
"Okay! I stole it from a store." she said.
I didn't know why, but Gakupo and I keep looking at her.
"I stole it from the store and hit the seller until he went unconscious and then I took some money from him, okay?" she finally said.
"Are you sure you're really the daughter of the general and you've been chose to be a dragon diva once?" Gakupo asked.
She glared at him.
"Wait, what? Her? Dragon diva?" I asked.
Meiko's p.o.v
This kid is sooooo annoying. Now that I've thought about it, what was his name?
"I'm Meiko," I said first, and then I looked at the kid and the blue haired guy "what about you two?"
"Kaito"
"Len" the kid said.
I told Len that I was supposed to be a dragon diva but because I was the daughter of the general and Teto was a commoner, that's why she became the dragon diva instead of me.
I kept asking myself, why?
Just now, when I looked at Len's eyes, he was determined to save his sister, he believed that he could and he would. But I got tricked and believed my friend would live forever, and now I knew she was already dead, I didn't even tried to stop her from being the dragon diva, and I call myself a friend of hers. Gakupo's right, I don't want anyone to die because of a stupid dragon and a stupid priest anymore. No one should die anymore.
"Hey, Len." I called out.
He turned over to me.
"You're going to save your sister, right?"I asked
He nodded.
"Can I go with you?"
"After you almost killed me…well…sure."
Does he really agree on everything? I've just tried to kill him, I thought he would protest and I've already thought of a hundred reasons about why I'm going to go too.
Gakupo's p.o.v
Wait, what is going on? First, they saved me and we got chase out of town. Then we quickly introduced ourselves, but I remembered Meiko had just tried to kill Len, why did he even agree to let her go with him? Not that I'm suspicious about Meiko, but she's the best sword user in the country, Luka wouldn't let her go so easily.
And what about me?
Should I go back? No, Luka would cut off my head like that story about the daughter/servant of evil I always loved. What if I follow them, I could get rid of the dragon, save a ton of people without getting myself killed. Yeah, better idea.
"Can I go with you too?" I asked.
"Sure!" Kaito help Len reply.
Kaito…What on earth can I do with you?
