Triss' Point Of View.

"What are you doing here?!" I said while I held my shield tight, and glared at him.

"Well," He addressed. "Because you guys are taking those scrolls and books," He explained. "Those are sacred."

"So?" I said rudely. "It's called, " Finding for clues", Yuraki. "

He crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes elsewhere. "Whatever, so. . give me the books and scrolls, or else. . . . ."

"You are gonna attack us again." Me,Meg,Erin and Alex continued.

He just gave us a pissed off look, but kept smiling.

"Anyways, I think I could finally kill you all now without controlling." He said.

"And how is that?" I asked, unimpressed.

"Well," He said while he walked towards Erin, and quickly grasped Erin's arms.

"Let go of me!" Erin shouted while she shakes,trying to remove his hand out of his.

Yuraki grabbed her hand tight, and looked at us.

"So. . . if you give me those books, I'll give you back your friend."

I shook my head.

I raised my shield to Yuraki's chin, and made it closer, just to make it painful.

"You owe me a fight, Yuraki,"

"A Fight."

∆∆∆

He held his dagger, and I held my shield. We'd crossed each other, and Erin,Alex,Meg and Finlay were just standing there, afraid and sweaty.

"You're getting good," I complimented Yuraki. "I've never seen you fight someone or me before."

"I was just hiding it!" He screwed up. "Ah shoot."

I chuckled while he continued attacking me while I dodged. "Yuraki, screwed up again."

He continues to attack me with his dagger, hut I just kept stepping backwards, avoiding it.

"Can't hit me?" I said while I gave him a "you are dumb" look. "Wow."

He steps backward leaving stones and skeletons dead everywhere. I killed it, since it was a distraction.

"Ugh."

I smiled warmly to him. "Yuraki. Give. It. Up."

"No!" He yelled.
He ran aggressively to me and attacked me with his dagger. It left me scratches, injuries.

"Who are you working with, Yuraki?" I asked sharply. "Who?"

He just smiled.

"You can't protect others if you can't protect yourself."

That though swirled around my head. It feels like his torturing me.

"Triss."
"Triss."
"Triss!"

I shouted.

"You're annoyed, aren't you?" Yuraki said, smiling. "Give me those books, Triss."

My body is moving by its own. I can't stop walking.

Stop walking!

Stop!

"Good gir-"

A loud, gunshot were heard from the side.

It was Erin.

"Yuraki!" She said while grinning. "You are not the only smart one here!"

"Dang... It's the engineer again.." He murmured. "I hate engineers!"

"Whatever!" I finally said, released from his torture. "Erin?"

"On it, bo- I mean, Triss!" She said while she giggled.

Multiple turrets cane out from sight. It keep shooting Yuraki, head to toe. In the mean time. . .

"Yuraki," Meg slowly said. "You're stepping on it."

"Wha-"

Meg just laid a landmine.

*Boom!

A loud explosion was heard.

He laid down on the ground, injured.

A small circle device dropped from his shirt.

He was controlled all along?

"Yuraki," I said. "Wake up, will you?"

He wakes up with one eyes is white, and one eye is red.

"I'm very sorry! I'm very sorry!" Erin apologized. "I made your eyes blind, right?! I'm sorry!"

He squats. "It's fine, I was controlled anyways. . . "

I smiled. "Well, please answer my question. Who are you working with?"

"Carter."

I gasped with horror. Carter?

"Wait, what?!" Alex exclaimed. "The fudge?!"

He nodded slowly, and stood up.

"I. . . better get going now. . ." He said while he pit his dagger in his pocket. "I must get going. . before he finds me."

He ran away, not seeing him again.

Carter? How, where, and when?

"Triss?" Finlay said while he tapped my shoulder. "You there?"

"Yep." I responded back. "Now, let's get going."

∆∆∆

We were at the meadow that we set camp in. Erin was just reading her book, Meg was taking a nap, And Finlay was just sleeping as well.

"Hey, Triss," Alex greeted while she sat next to me. "You okay?"

"Yeah."
"Are you worried about the books and scrolls?"

I nodded.

Before we left, Yuraki, the good one, have us the remaining books and scrolls.

I haven't figured out anything though, and I've been really concerned about it.

"Well!" Alex says while put her other hand in my back. "You've got us."

"Yeah, Thanks."

"Well, we should be heading back to them, it's late."

I just hope something exciting will happen tomorrow. . . .
