Home is Where the Heart is... (Bakeru/Alex)

[mesmu]

Sasha, my mother, beats me to the door and opens it. A fury in her eyes when she sees who it is, "What do you want?"

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

My eyes widened at the lady's expression, it looked just like my father's before he killed my mother. Memories I'd rather not remember flooded my mind. My mother, the only person who ever loved me, trying to get me out of the house before my father woke up. Him hearing us. Him beating her to death. I couldn't stop myself, I started crying. I dropped the bag, turned around and ran away from the house, tears streaming down my cheeks as I remembered the scenes so vividly. I ran to the cliff on the other side of the street and prepared to jump over the edge, when a pair of strong hands grabbed me.

[mesmu]

When Alex had ran off I had fallowed him. Seeing him on the edge of a cliff i did the only thing I could think of. My arms wrap around him, "Please don't... Alex... I need you..." Wow um, didn't see those words coming...

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

I struggled, trying to push the assailant off of me, when i heard a familiar voice speak to me.

"Please don't... Alex... I need you..." Bakeru whispered in my ear.

"Why won't you let me die?! Everyone who gets close to me dies.Earth would be so much better without me."

[mesmu]

Pulling him from the edge I growl, "Good thing I'm not from Earth."

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

"Don't mock me." Then, while he is distracted, I knee him in the crotch, run and jump.

[mesmu]

My heart crashes with him. And I take the long way down, striping and morph as I go. I'm much faster in my beast form. Soon enough I find him. "Stupid." I growl and then drag him back to my pants. I pull out my AI after changing back. "Underground hospital, nearest, NOW!"

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

When I come to, I'm lying down, but can't see a thing. I try to lift my arms, but they don't get far because there is a thing over me. It's then that I notice a strange liquid around me. Is this hell? I feel so hot, like my whole body is on fire. I scream, and beat my fists on the thing, trying to escape. Suddenly, the liquid drains and a lid is lifted off of me. I'm suddenly blinded by bright light. I feel somebody grab my arm, and pull me into a sitting position. I squint and look at through the bright light and see none other than Bakeru.

"What happened?"

[mesmu]

"I saved your life," I say with a cool and cross my arms. "You jumped and all I could think was if you died... I would be going with you."

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

"What do you mean?"

[mesmu]

"I mean that you're going to be coming with me," I say firmly. "You obviously can't handle life here... We'll go live my Uncle."

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

"My father won't allow it, he'll hunt us down and kill us."

[mesmu]

"Your father will regret the day he first ever thought of harming you," I snarl and lean in close. "And he won't be able to touch us where we're going."

[Lizzy the Fluff Master]

"Where could we possibly go? China?"

[mesmu]

"Zerca."
