another day off?

should i really complain?

noir is gone

im bored

lio is busy

something at roses company

marina keeps texting me

havent answered

walk the town

do i even have any normal clothes?

school uniforms

work out stuff

set after set

dig dig

throwing so much out of the wardrobe

barely recognised half of it

a single pair of jeans

trainers

a summer top pink with purple stripes

leather jacket

belonged to sis...sis....

gah!

getting dressed

out the door

these gloves comfy if starting to smell

streets eaten

then miles

walking

running

no plan

no route

least i have my phone

earbuds

tunes

"i ran,

so fast,

so far away,

can't escape,

can't get away...."

forest

no lights

dirt road

still running

getting dark over head

a light

another

solid streets

Averdale

my home...

my old home

this road

just one more corner

the door hasnt changed

wringing my hands

my phone toned midnight

july 31'st

one year to the day

wanted to run that night too

couldnt...

heavy breaths

saw someone in the house window

i ran ducking...

old path knew it well

turn here

over a fence

just keep going

open a gate

well there used to be a gate here

opened out onto the road up to school

still rubble

a few walls standing

one lonely workers cabin tucked away....

something might actually be put here....

the thought made me sick

foot steps so close by sparked anger

marina...

back in the maid outfit

eye patch

a sword in hand...

"here you are...."

biles and curses would spew forth right now

if i even tried to make a noise

i ran clicking a fresh tune in my phone

*deep inside feeling high

tearing clawing

roaring

blood craving

...i can't save myself*

being chase by a maid

over rubble

through broken windows

might actually be a good action anime scene

stopping

ducking

she was slashing throat height

is this her anger?

i took her job?

rose said something

right now

no thought

caught the blade in my glave palms

a twist and threw it away

barely blocked a kick to my right side

faint back

weave

observe

not a single move with her arms

all kicks

strange

if u cant punch

i get close this is over

doesn't mean her kicks aren't vicious

even blocking with my knees

half balanced to fall back

so i don't take the full brunts

hit a wall in a few moments

collapsed to the floor

kip up into jump spinning a elbow back

hit something

she grunted

an opening...

no the world spun

tail over head

hit the floor

curling my head taking the hit full back

roll right

heard a clang

she really tried to stab me

oh fuck you!...

to knee

to foot

running

grabbing the thrusting blade

pulled hard

she came too

meeting my snap jab to her face

rush of cold right thigh

knife in play

spin back right to left

blocked more slashing

my gloves getting torn up

gotta end this...

take a kick hook arm under her leg

hand to her gut

pulls opposite way

slam the bitch down

jump on her fast

knees pin her arms

only got one solid hit in

marina was out cold

foot steps

rose?!

our eyes locked

she was biting her lip

^is marine dead?^

no out cold

and she attacked me if blame is gunna go around!

my reply snarled

she was looking at me

then marina

^im sorry , i feared she would do something like this

your gloves are so torn...^

lionne appeared

flanked with doctors

more stitches

after an hour

just me and lio

sat on rubble

nya i should have been with you

her voice wavering

cant believe its been a year

"its okay lio"

we hugged

we're both here now...

a driver came up

with two bouquets

ms rose said you would require them

before i take you both home.

one left at the school rubble

the other split among 8 graves

midday home

the new one

i was back

collapsed in bed

actually took pain meds....ugh....
