The Rising Sun

48

Ears buzzing.

Two guards came in.

"Master..We need to get out of here"

"Take this woman alive"

A guard came up to me. He opened the bond that held me. But not for how long. Then he pointed a gun at me. "Road" His orders that I follow him.

I'm stepping my leg. Following their steps. One army is waiting for us in front. I was surprised to find Raymond there. His face was battered. Rafael stopped his steps. Staring at Raymond with a fed up look.

"We found him sneaking up in your study. Now what should we do with him ?"

"Bring Him. He still has to live to carry out my plan"

My hand is touched for Forward. We passed through a secret passageway that was on the south side of the building. The sound of gunfire and explosions was still heard. I glanced at Raymond who was wearing all-black clothes. The wound on his face did not dampen his courage.

I realized that He was no longer the sixteen-year-old I had known all along. He had already turned into a formidable warrior.

The military world might be right for him rather than medical.

We were both put in a dark room. There was only a slight light that made me still be able to see Raymond's figure even though it wasn't so clear. While Raphael and his entourage were gone. My guess is, they're strategizing.

"How are you doing ?" I asked Raymond who was sitting opposite me. Raymond looked at me with demands. Makes me want to escape from it.

"I met that man"

I stared at Raymond for a moment. From his tone, I know what is meant by Prince Riana.

"We were fighting when I saw him sneak into Rafael's study. From the way he fights, I'll bet he's used to killing people. Is it convenient for you to be with the Yuki mafia"

"He's not the Mafia" I refute quickly. "You're on your own for what you went there for"

"What do you mean ?"

"Raffael's workspace. You're there to find something"

"I asked you first"

I let out a breath. This discussion will not end well. I stared at Raymond for a moment. Maybe I'd better tell her the truth.

"I'll tell you. You can believe it or not..I don't have much time to argue. So shut up and just listen"

I then told him about my origins. Who is Prince Riana. And also what is my relationship with Rafael. I also told him what We were to this world, which We did not expect to meet with Rafael. Raymond quiet. Listen in. He didn't look surprised.

I nodded my head. So Raymond watched as Prince Riana forced me back into his world. When I refused to return after the death of the Dalto Nobles.

"The person you saw was Prince Riana. Raymond..I didn't expect you'd believe me. But the Prince is not a bad person. Rafael is your real enemy. He's not a good man. He could kill easily to get his wish."

"I've been around all this time to investigate the deaths of my boss and his daughter. Also to find out where you are because I have faith He knows where you've been all along"

The shooting became more clear. I was shocked when Raymond stood up. His hand has been removed. He came straight to me and untied me. Just as the sound of the guards approaching.

I pretend to sit with my hands tied. Raymond was on the ceiling. The lack of light helped him to hide. When the guards opened the door. He was surprised to find Raymond not in his place.

"Well, where's he going ?" Asked the guard in a panic towards me. I did not have time to answer, Raymond had already crippled the two guards quickly. He killed both. I'm standing. Raymond searched the guards for weapons. He gave me a gun. I looked at him gasping.

"You can use it ?" Raymond asked when he saw the doubt in my eyes. I shook my head.

"Are you crazy...Of course not"

I can fight. Only use a sword or arrow. Lekky never taught me how to use a gun. There was no war tool like a gun.

Raymond stood in front of me. He held the weapon in my hand and practiced how to use the weapon quickly. He calmly shot the body of a guard lying on the floor, nearby. "You understand now"

"Yes" I said still surprised by what just happened. The smell of gunpowder spread in the room.

"good. If you're not sure, just hide behind me. But don't shoot me"

"I understand"

Us out. Raymond immediately killed two guards who had just arrived because they heard the sound of a gunshot that had just been fired by Raymond.

A shootout occurred. Raymond grimaced as his shoulder was struck by a bullet. I saw his clothes getting wet. The rancid smell I recognized as the smell of blood instantly filled my sense of smell.

As if I didn't feel pain. Raymond is still fighting. We walked towards the small door. It was a little relieved when Prince Riana found out that he was behind me. I don't know where he showed up. The Prince unhesitatingly gave Raymond a weapon that had run out of bullets.

"Yuki, you go get Nara. I'll finish my business with the new Rafael to catch up with you"

I nodded my head unwilling to argue this time.

I don't want to ruin the plans we've made. I believe the Prince must have prepared everything so that We can all return safely to Our world.

I shuffled towards the small elevator that used to put food from the restaurant in this building. But when I just stepped in. A shot sounded pretty loud near me. Harder than the barrage of shots in this place.

The pain spread instantly on my back.
