Mia woke the next morning with Neron still laying on her hips. She slipped from him slowly and walked to the bathroom connected to the room. She moaned as the warm water washed over her. After cleaning herself she wrapped a towel around herself and walked out.
"Keith...where are my clothes!"
Keith was curled up on his bed with the girl that Sophitia had abused. When Mia started yelling, he groaned. Sliding out of bed he didn't bother with clothes as he leaned on his door. "I forgot to get you some," he told her with a yawn.
Mia turned her head away and blushed. "Put some damn clothes on when you talk to me!"
Keith looked down and shrugged. Going back into his room, he grabbed the girl's clothes. She was asleep. Why would she need them? He tossed them to Mia. "There ya go," he yawned as he started back to bed.
Mia grabbed them and threw them back at him. "I hate you!" she screamed.
Sophitia opened her door. "Come here. I have some clothes that might fit you," she said.
Mia held her towel tight against her and walked to Sophitia's room, watching her close the door behind her.
Keith watched Sophitia take Mia into her room. He whistled innocently as he turned on the camera once more to see what was going on. Hitting another button, the television in Mia's and Neron's room came on, broadcasting the same image.
"Just to warn you, my master has cameras in all the rooms."
Mai paled. "That pervert...I'm sure he got an eye full last night," she said holding her towel tighter. "I can't stay here. He gives me the creeps..."
Sophitia smiled and pulled out some clothes for her. "Change in the closet. And where would you go?"
Mia shrugged and walked in the closet knowing it was the one place without prying eyes. "I don't know, but I can't stay here knowing I'm being watched. It's creepy."
"Hey! That's not fair! I only watch Sophitia...most of the time. I was just hoping for some more lesbian action." Keith's voice came over a hidden speaker in her room. "Anyway, later today I want to try a little training exercise. I'm certain that Neron has taught you how to fight, but I want to give you a few pointers myself."
"Anyway I-"
There was a loud bang which echoed through the room.
"Oh, Neron...I had the speaker in your room too didn't I?"
There was more crashing sounds followed by Keith screamed after which the speaker went dead. Neron wiped his hands and started back to bed. He hadn't bothered to even put on clothes for that little early morning joy.
Mia rushed out of the room with Sophitia. They went to Keith's room and Mia started laughing. All of his camera stuff was broken and he was covered in most of it. Sophitia walked in and started helping him out of it.
"Serves you right, pervert," Mia said and left.
Keith whimpered. "I have a microphone in my ass. It hurts. A lot."
Sophitia smirked. "I wish I could have seen that."
Mia smiled at Neron as she walked back in the room. "You are awesome."
The rest of the morning was uneventful. It wasn't until Keith felt that he could walk again that things got interesting. "Catch," he said as he tossed a handgun to Mia.
Mia jumped back from it and it landed on the ground. "Are you crazy!!??"
"It's not loaded," he said as he held up the ammo clip. "Geeze. Come on. You're going to get in some target practice today."
Mia picked up the gun. "You know...guns kill people...and I don't..."
"That's exactly why you need to learn how to use one. Sometimes there might be an opponent that your warrior can't defeat so it will be up to you to take down their guardian anyway possible. Like when you were poisoned the other day. You didn't even see it coming, and that could have cost you your life."
Mia looked at the gun in her hands. "I...I don't think I can do that..."
"So if Neron was about to die you would just stand back and watch it happen?"
Mia clutched the gun. "I..." she looked off in the distance at Neron and Sophitia fighting. Looking back at the gun she brought it to her chest as if hugging it. "I don't know..."
"Well let's find out. Sophitia, now!"
Sophitia nodded. Her whip launched out and wrapped around Neron's neck. Blades popped out from the whip, slicing through his jugular as she pulled back. Neron fell to the ground clutching his bleeding throat as Sophitia stood above him ready to perform the kill blow.
"Stop it!" Mia screamed. Her hand going to her throat as if she was the one with the bleeding throat. "Your hurting him!" Mia looked at Keith. "This isn't fair!" she said as she started to cry. "Stop it!"
Sophitia smirked as she pressed her fingers to Neron's chest. "This is going to hurt," she whispered in his ear. Her nails elongated, stabbing into his chest she dropped a small brown seed into his chest. Pulling back, she just stood and watched as he writhed in agony on the ground as vines began to sew their way through his body.
"Well, it looks like he's going to die," Keith told her without any emotion on his face. "He's going to die, because you failed to act."
Mia screamed out as her chest felt like she was being torn apart. Falling to her knees she clutched her chest. "Oh God! Forgive me!" she cried out. Pointing the gun at Sophitia, she fired at her chest.
Keith rolled his eyes and yanked the gun from her as Sophitia stumbled. "What the hell did you think that was going to do? Bullets barely stop them." He put the gun back in her hand and moved it to his forehead, right between his eyes. "If you want the pain to stop. If you want your lover to live, then you have to shoo the guardian. Not the warrior. Shoot me. Shoot me!"
Mia cried and shook her head. "I can't! You're my best friend!" she yelled while crying. She screamed as her insides begged for mercy. "Neron!" she cried out. Looking at Keith she closed her eyes. "I'm sorry, Keith...I'm so sorry!" Finally, she pulled the trigger once more.
Keith sighed. "About damn time. Sophitia, can you stop the vine?"
Sophitia smirked. "Yeah, but he's not going to like it." Taking out a knife she straddled Neron's hips as began to dig the knife into his chest to pull out the root. From there she had to pull the vines out of his flesh. Neron had never felt such agony before, at least not that he could remember.
Mia screamed out over and over as Sophitia pulled out the vines. She laid on the ground drowned in her own tears as she curled up into a ball. Blanks. The stupid gun was nothing more than blanks. Holding her shaking body, she could still feel the aftershock and rolls of pain running through her.
Sophitia threw the vine down on the ground. In just those few short minutes the vines had reached nearly twelve feet. Fire danced from her fingers as the vine began to shrivel up and die.
Keith took the gun from her and wiped her face. "You can't hesitate," he told her. "Hesitation leads to death.
"You let him suffer because of blanks!" she yelled. Moving hurt, yelling hurt. She hated him.
"I didn't let him suffer, you did. If you'd pulled the trigger earlier he wouldn't have had to have suffered."
Struggling to her feet, she pushed him aside and made her way over to Neron, every step feeling like something was tugging at her intestines. Getting to her knees next to him, she pulled his head into her lap. Her tears falling on his forehead, but she wiped them off his head quickly. "I'm sorry...I'm not so good at this..."
"He won't be able to talk for a few hours," Keith told her. "That's a devil's thorn plant. First thing it does is attack the nervous system and thought waves. He should be able to talk and move in about three to four hours."
"Then I'll sit here for three or four hours," she said stroking Neron's head. She looked up at Keith. "I...I want to learn to be better. I want to learn to not hesitate."
"You have two choices. Either harden your heart to what you have to do, or watch him suffer until eventually you become too numb to care."
Mia looked down at Neron. Her shaky hands went to his wounds, trying to stop the blood. "I'll do whatever it takes."
"Okay then. Relax for now and stay with him. I'll work with you to get you to be able to do what you need to." He picked up the gun, dusted it off and nodded to Sophitia. "Carry him inside and help get his wounds tied up so he can heal quicker."
"Yes, master," Sophitia said and Mia moved back to watch her lift him. Mia stood and followed them inside and helped Sophitia wash Neron off and bandage him. "It's not that you have to harden your heart," Sophitia said as she help Mia finish the bandages.
"What?" Mia asked looking at her.
"You just have to learn to accept the fact that you are in a kill or be killed world now. Any chance you get, no matter what, if you see a master, you try and take him down because he will not hesitate to do the same to you," Sophitia explained. Mia pushed her hair behind her ear. "If you aren't so worried about you getting hurt, think of Neron. What if you were really fighting me and my master? He would be dead by now, and you would have lost him forever. "
Mia looked down at Neron. "It's hard to tell myself that taking a human life is ok..."
"Even if that human life wants to kill you and Neron?"
Mia moved her hand over her chest as she felt her heart beating faster. "It's harder knowing that I was going to kill my best friend."
"It's hard regardless who the person is, but it doesn't matter," she said. "All that matters is that you strike before they strike. Think of it this way. By killing that one person, you could be sparing a whole building of people. You've seen how much destruction one battle can do. Imagine if you had killed those masters before the fights really started. None of those people would be dead."
Mia said up and looked her in the eyes. "I've never...thought about it like that."
"It's just something to think about."
As predicted, it took nearly three hours before Neron was able to move and speak again. He groaned as he looked at the long gash on his chest which was starting to come together and heal. "I'm going to kill them," he muttered as he pushed himself out of bed. Every muscle, organ, and piece of tissue hurt from where the vines ripped holes in his flesh. It wasn't until he stood that he realized he was naked. "Of course..."
"Please," Mia said and pushed him back down while grabbing her chest. "Don't move. Every time you move it hurts," she said hissing. "Just...don't move."
"I've got to move if I'm going to kill them," he said bluntly but with little conviction. He sat on the edge of the bed looking like a zombie. Finally without any warning he just laid back down and whimpered. "I feel like my all by bones got pushed outward and all my organs were stabbed repeatedly."
Mia laid next to him. "I know the feeling...I was there...I still feel it," she said. "I'm sorry about earlier...I'll do better next time." How many times had she promised that?
"Keith...where are my clothes!"
Keith was curled up on his bed with the girl that Sophitia had abused. When Mia started yelling, he groaned. Sliding out of bed he didn't bother with clothes as he leaned on his door. "I forgot to get you some," he told her with a yawn.
