Witch Hunter Robin Fan Fiction ❯ A new life ❯ Waking up ( Chapter 10 )

Waking up

 

Amon stood on position on a rooftop with a view of the fighting point. Down, Miho and Haruto walked towards the warehouse were Gabriel was holding Anna. Suddenly a burst crashed one of the walls and the blonde witch appeared. Sakaki shot her, but she deflected the bullets easily. Amon looked through the view of his rifle and waited for a clear shot on the witch. Miho dodged Dinahs blasts over and over, trying to shot her.

Dinah realized that the female hunter was too good, so she focused on the young boy. Haruto began to run, to get away from her sigh and the first tries he succeeded, but then he moved too slowly and Dinah threw him backwards. Sakaki fell behind and twisted his ankle. Dinah walked to finish him, but suddenly she felt a big pain on her leg. When she put her hand on the spot, her hands were filled with a green liquid, Orbo. Turning around to see where the shot came from, she looked behind her, on the rooftops and saw Amon standing with the smoking rifle on his hands. She tried to send a blast to the rooftop, but her powers failed her. Amon aimed again, and the next shot hit her on her stomach. Dinah fell on her knees and Amon shot again. The third round hit her on her shoulder, so she rolled down, finally knocked down.

 

Miho ran towards Amon, meeting him on the warehouse entrance. He put his rifle on the floor and took out his gun. Mihos eyes widened when she realized that it wasnt the normal tranquilizer gun, but a regular one, with normal bullets. She smiled at Amon and took one just like his and they both rushed inside.

Robin remained unconscious, with her dreams (or memories?). The vision had changed, this time she saw herself still as a five year old, sitting on the trainees barracks, crying over her pillow. She approached to her younger self and saw two men leaving the room.

“She cant be dead! This is not true! She promised to come back!” The younger Anna yelled in midst her tears.

The ten-year-old Amon entered the barracks and sat next to Anna. She got up and faced him.

“Are you ok?” He asked her.

“They told me that my mom died” Anna said, drying her tears with her hand, “But I dont believe it! She promised that she would bring my sister with her!”

“You know that they dont lie” Amon said.

“What do you mean?”

“They told me that my mom was mean, and they were right. She killed those men when they came to take me here”

“She may have done that to protect you! They keep on telling us that witches are mean, but my mom was a witch and she was nice. I am a witch and I am not mean!”

“You may be right. They tell me that some day I will be a witch too, but I am never gonna be like my mom!”

“Your craft is still dormant?”

“Yeah, I guess, I mean, I cant do anything you do on training lessons. All my lessons are with guns or to fight”

“But if you are a Seed that means that your power is gonna awake someday. Mine awoke when I was four. My mom told me that I have to be here so I cant hurt anybody with my craft”

“I saw your mom the last time she came. She was pregnant right? Her belly was so big!”

“Yeah, my little sister Robin was in there. But those men told me that she died when my baby sister was born. Now my dad wants me to go to another training area. They told me that I am being transferred away from here. I am leaving tomorrow morning.”

 

Annas vision began to fade and she saw herself standing on a black space. Am I dead already? She thought.

“No honey you are not”

Anna turned around and saw her mother standing behind her. She looked just like the last time she saw her, when she was five.

“Then where am I?”

“You are in a place where you are safe with your memories”

This time the voice was different. Anna looked at her left and saw Robin standing next to her.

“But this cant be! You guys are already dead!”

“We are, but our love has never left you, my dear” Maria said

“I wanted you to protect Amon and until now you have fulfilled your promise Anna” Robin said, “But there is something else coming, something that is gonna change his life forever”

Anna looked at her sister, with a questioning look on her face.

“What is coming Ro? I need to protect him, but I need you to tell me!”

“The awakening” Maria and Robin said in unison.

“His power is a great one, but without control and care, he can even hurt you Anna” Robin said

“Now that we are gone, the responsibility goes to you. You met him before any of us did, you met him on a traumatic stage of his life, so you are the chosen one to stop him from loosing himself to his craft” Maria said

“You are dying Adrianna. The amount of Orbo that runs through your veins is too big. If you want to save Amon, you have to fight it.” Maria said.

“How can I fight it if I dont know what it is?”

“Orbo contains the blood of all the witches that have been hunted down.” Robin said

“Your father made you stronger than you could ever imagine my dear. The blood of all witches runs through your veins and the veins of your sister. The hope was divided among the both of you. Robin might be gone from the world of the living, but her spirit is with you, and so her power. We trust you to know how to use it wisely. The fire craft is in your, so you can burn anything down, including the orbo within you. But be careful, because that is a dangerous move and if you do not perform it right, you might burn yourself down”

Maria and Robin began to fade. Anna stood there as she saw them fade away. I wont let you down, I promise. She focused on her fire power and saw the orbo running through her veins. She remained focused on it and lit it with her flame.

Amon and Miho ran towards the signal that came from Annas GPS locator. They reached the location and saw Anna tied to a bed. She looked pale, like she wasnt even breathing. Miho began to ran towards her, but she was lifted in the air and flew towards a window, smashed it and fell down the building.

“Not so easily, kids” Gabriels voice was heard somewhere in the dark warehouse, “you are late. The amount of Orbo I gave her will kill her painfully and slowly, so unless you extract it from her blood stream, I will give her around 5 more minutes to live, if thats what you can consider to live.”

“Bastard” Amon said to himself, and ran towards Anna, but Gabriel lifted him and threw him against a wall. Amon fell to the floor and stood up slowly. Gabriel appeared in front of him and chuckled to himself.

“So you are so precious to her that she would sacrifice her life for your. Boy, I dont know what you have got with the Sena sisters, but they all died saving you.”

“What are you talking about?” Amon whispered

“So you already forgot how little Annas sister died?” He shook his head, “Or how Anna herself is gonna die in” he looked at his watch, “ three more minutes”

Amon lifted his gun and shot Gabriel, but he levitated the bullets and threw them back at Amon. He jumped out of the way and rolled next to Annas side.

“Anna, come on, wake up!” He took her from her shoulders and shook her. Anna just moaned in pain, but didnt wake up. Amon untied her and when he tried to lift her up, Gabriel sent him against another wall.

“No, you are not getting her out of here until the time is up!”

Amon was crawling, trying to get up. This cant be happening to me. I am not gonna loose her, not now!

“Are you giving up my friend?” Gabriel said

“No” he whispered

“What did you said? I cant hear your whispers”

Wind began to whirl around Amon as he stood up. He had several bruises on his face, but when he finally stood up, his face was glowing and his hair was lifted with as wind blew from him.

“I SAID NO! I AM NOT GIVING UP!” Amon raised his hand towards Gabriel and he was lifted from the ground.

 

Anna began to regain consciousness and opened her eyes. She felt a big craft being unleashed and sat up feeling very weak. She saw Amon glowing and Gabriel being lifted from the ground. No… she thought and barely got up. Amons eyes were filled with rage as he closed his hand and Gabriel was slowly being crushed. Anna stumbled towards Amon, hearing Gabriels bones crack as they broke. Finally, Amon crushed Gabriel until there was no remain of him there.

“Amon, stop it!” Anna yelled at him, but she was terrified when he turned to face her and his eyes were glowing red. (AN: I know, I know, too “inuyasha-like”, but its my story, so deal with it!!). He seemed not to recognize her, because he lifted his hand towards her and Anna felt that she was being lifted from the ground.

 

He is gonna kill me! She thought, and with her own craft lifted some rocks and threw them at him. Amon lifted his other hand and easily deflected them.

“Amon, you have to remember me!” Anna screamed, “Remember when you first arrived to the training facility! Remember when my mother died! You were there for me and I was there for you!”

Deep on Amons mind, the memories began to flow. He saw a little brunette girl crying while she lay on a bed. He saw the same girl approaching him when he felt like the world was against him. He saw Anna kissing him while they were leaving STN-J for the hunt. He remembered the loud music she played every morning, that no matter how much he hated to admit it, he liked when she did that. She has been there for me always. He snapped out of his trance and lowered his hand. Anna fell down and lay there unconscious. Amon fell next to her and everything went black.
