Fight Me,Mate

10

As consciousness hit me, my eyes snap open and I look at the white unfamiliar ceiling above me.

The sheets around me is not mine. Closing my eyes to stop the headache rising in the back of my head, I lift myself up slowly with my elbows.

And very slowly, I look around and take a glance at the room.

Where the hell am I?

I didn't panic, no. Because it didn't scare me that I am waking up in unfamiliar room. Working in the field where everyone is out to cut my neck open, I have prepared myself for this kind of situations

But what confuse me, is the decent room with light maroon walls and wood furniture instead of dingy web covered room or some warehouse.

Lifting the white sheets off my body, I put my feet on the floor. I look down at myself.

At least I am in the same clothes.

My eyes snap towards the door when it slowly opens. I ready my  stance to punch anyone if need.

But my clenched fists loosen when I look at the little kid entering the room I am in.

A boy. A small little boy with his tiny fingers in his cute little mouth, gazes up at me with bright blue eyes. He looks 3 or 4 years old. The face looking familiar.

Then, I think. I think about who this little kid is and how I had ended up here.

And when an image of someone pops up into my mind. I didn't like what I saw.

Images like a broken record plays in my mind and my eyes widen.

Oh no.

No. No. No.

I gulp, I am just dreaming maybe. Maybe the ones who has kidnapped me, had injected something in my blood. Maybe I'm just hallucinating.

But I did remember that when these things had happened I was alright. Maybe my mind is playing a trick.

Many maybe-s revolve around my head. But it all halt their revolving and settle down once the same someone enters behind the small boy.

Shit.

My body kicks in action and gets out of its shock state. I leap forward, grasping the arm of the boy and pulls him behind me in haste.

"Bwother." A gasp leaves the boy's lips. Maybe he is missing his brother. I will make sure he gets back home safe. Away from these insane people.

But are they even people?

"Stay back." I take a protective stance in front of the boy and narrow my eyes in warning but my mind remains alert.

Be careful, Miracle. I remind myself.

He is not human. I don't know what he is but he is definitely not normal.

Rudolf.

Rudolf looks at me with blank expression then his eyes move towards the boy who is trying to move from behind me.

"Stay still, boy. It's dangerous out there." I scowl at the little kid before looking at Rudolf who is already staring at me with a slight smile on his lips.

"Dangewous?" He asks in a small voice. I purse my lips tightly and didn't reply, keeping my eyes on Rudolf.

A few seconds pass in stone cold silence.

Him staring at me. And me glaring at him.

And the boy- I don't know about him, he is standing quietly behind me, doing I don't know what.
