The pressure had disappeared for the moment and I was still gasping for air. I didn't know what else to do. Poochy was laying on the floor with Kat in pain. Sableye was there too and she was in pretty bad shape. We had a few moments to escape. Yes, I realize I was in no condition to run or anything but the other girls were target. I gently pulled myself over to Kat and shook her. She didn't respond. I felt her forehead and she was out cold. I struggled to my feet and lifted her over my left shoulder and gently did the same for Poochy as well. As I did that I felt the sudden urge to throw blood back up....sadly I did.
I looked over at Sabeleye and hobbled over there.
"Here..." I said reaching out a hand to her. "I know I don't know you but thanks for trying to fight that thing, the name's Lux."
"Thanks..." She muttered she grabbed my hand I swung my arm around her waste as we both limped away. "My name is Sable. Its sorta strange meeting each other on these terms."
I only smirked and gave her a little scoff. The children's laughter was coming closer again. I kicked down the closest door and limped inside of it and went into a closet.
"Damn it...has it found us again?" I nervously said kneeling down. I felt a slight tap on my shoulder and saw all three girls looking at me. It appeared the others had awaken and were alright. But as I looked Sable handed my a potion.
"We must be in Eva's bedroom." Said Kat looking up. "She does keep so many things to heal others. She won't mind if we take a few in this situation."
We all agreed and we drank as much as we could. Most of my wounds heal but I still felt a slight pain but it was manageable. The laughter was coming closer and I could feel fear between us four. Nothing we did stopped it.
"Hey can you find the others if I distract it?" I asked turned to Poochy and Kat.
"Yeah I can with my nose." Replied Poochy with a grin. "But you'd be stupid to go back out there again. You'll only get killed."
"I won't get killed, besides I can handle a few more blows but I can hold him until you run past him. Can you do that?" I asked. My glare was getting serious.
"Yes." Poochy replied. It grew quiet and we heard footsteps. "It's here!"
I quickly used a thunder at the door which sent the door flying at the being; I jumped ontop of it holding it down while the others ran off to find the others.
"NO STOP!" Screamed the being. "YOU GO TO HELL TOO!!!!!"
"NOT ON YOUR LIFE BUDDY!" I used a thunder wave with my fist hitting him threw the floor. I looked down at the hole and saw him going towards the direction of the girls.
Damn I let him escape. I quickly bolted off after Poochy, Kat, and Sable.
The girls were running as fast as they could but in front of them the being appeared charging them with a dagger once again.
"Damn thing. Shadow ball!" Screamed Sable. The dark being hit it to the side and laughed. He lifted up his sword and I jumped in front of the girls kicking him once again.
"RUN!" I snarled as I blocked a punch from the being.
"GOT IT!" Nodded Kat as she used a furry swipes on the floor blocking the hall way they were heading.
I chuckled and looked at the being because they had escaped. I cracked my knuckles and my neck. "Well asshole I guess its only you and me?"
It smiled and a small child's voice came out of it. "You sure?" It said pointing behind me. It disappered once again. I hated this game already.
I turned to see a figure again. The scent was familiar. Suddenly the being showed itself. It was Estelle.
"Estelle?" I said surprised.
"Lux are you okay?" She replied running towards me and hugging me. "I smelt your blood and came running for you. I was so worried Lux."
"You seem to be okay hon." I gently held her tight and looked into her eyes. "I am glad you are safe."
She looked at me with those eyes and smiled. "Lux stay with me. I love you and I don't want to see you hurt."
I grabbed her hands and pushed her away from me. I took a few steps back towards the steps.
"You're not Estelle." I said glaring at her.
"What? I am Estelle how could I not be?" She said with a panic in her voice.
I began to laugh and got down in attack position. "You can't fool me. You may smell like her, but she always calls me Lux-kun and her eyes are PURPLE not BLUE!"
Her innocent look went to a devilish smile. "You're good Lux-kun." Her voice began to feel older and sinister. She used a confusion which paralzed me for a moment. She took a few steps forward used a quick attack stabbing me with her hand threw my chest. "But you will be dead soon..."
I quickly grabbed her shoulders...."Why Estelle?" Coughing up more blood. Geez I was back were I started. She pushed me back towards the railing. She twisted her hand in my chest and laughed.
"I'll see you in hell." She said with that ugly smirk that being had.
"Yeah whatever bitch!" I chuckled even though I knew this was probably the end for me.
