The Plague

Ch.34

*takes cookie*

I'm surprised I haven't gained any weight from all these cookies.

Hmmm.

I think I'm going to change things up a bit.

Seto's POV

Adam's body fell limp in my arms as the purple mist made it's way back into my hands.

"What the nether happened to you buddy?" I whispered, looking at his bloodied clothing.

A ringing sound filled my ears and my eye lids became heavy.

No no no no no no what's happening? why am I feeling tired?

I pushed Adam away from me and backed up against a wall.

My limbs felt weaker and my eyes kept trying to close.

No no no! I'm not going to sleep!

I fought the feeling of exhaustion band tried to mutter a spell, but I couldn't concentrate.

A hand was laid on my shoulder, making me even more tired.

"Goodnight healer." The owner of the hand said before my vision filled with white.

Mitch's POV

"QUIRREN, NO!" I screamed as she fell limp on the table.

I fought against the small bonds with all my strength and remaining energy.

Watching Quirren lay there with her eyes closed made me furious.

She was always so full of life and so strong.

But the man and the couple took that away from her.

"Quirren!" I screamed again, kicking around in another desperate attempt to escape.

I need to get to her.

I need to make sure she's okay.

Oh Quirren. I'm so sorry.

A furious scream forced it's way out of my mouth as the ropes dug into my already raw wrists.

I failed her.

I'm so sorry Quirren.

I couldn't save her from the man.

I'm a horrible person.

I can't protect her.

I'm a failure.

My head fell in shame as I stopped struggling.

Balling my hands into fists, I squeezed my eyes shut and shook my head.

I'm such a failure.

Jerome's POV

"Mitch!" I exclaimed as he fell over limply on to me.

The man smirked and they both disappeared.

"Mitch!" I screamed.

"C'mon Jerome. Let's go tell Seto they got away. Hopefully we can save Mitch and Quirren at the same time." Jason said, walking towards the door.

Ryan followed, then looked back at me.

I looked at where my best friend had been standing moments before, then I, reluctantly, followed them.

We ran down the hallway to where we left Seto.

Only, he wasn't there.

How's that for changing things up?

Sorry if I ruined any of your plans fallout.
