Chapter 10

And we're back with another chapter. Let's see where we end up now that the setting is no longer Elder.

        The train was still moving when it happened. Screech! The sound could be heard at the front of the train and it came to a sudden halt. Everyone was thrown forward and screams could be heard from various other passengers. Add pulled (y/n) to him to keep her from getting hurt which she appreciated but wished he hadn't.

        "We have to go," she hissed while grabning Shiro. Add didn't waste any time responding to her obvious comment. Instead, he pulled (y/n) with him from the seat and let his dynamos circle around the two of them while he searched for a way out. (Y/n) took this opportunity to summon her dynamas from their tattoo. They joined Add's dynamos in their circling pattern and caused purple electricity to spark around them, creating a small barrier of sorts.

        As soon as this happened, the ceiling above them dented in. There was barely any time for them to move, but they managed to get out of the way as someone smashed through the ceiling of the train. (Y/n) didn't worry about trying to find out who the mysterious white haired girl was. She took hold of Add's hand while holding Shiro with the other and let him guide the both of them to the emergency exit at the back of the train. Their weapons stopped circling them and separated themselves.

        (Y/n) used her dynamas to blast down the door while Add simultaneously picked her up and stepped onto his dynamos so that they were floating out of the broken door. (Y/n) made the mistake of looking back and saw that they narrowly escaped the attack of the mysterious white haired girl. "A demon?" (y/n) thought.

        Add suddenly stopped, jumping off of his dynamos. Luckily, (y/n) realized what was going on and attacked their attacker before either of them could be hurt. The El Search Party had already found them. (Y/n) let Add put her down and she immediately put Shiro down and got into a battle ready stance, her back pressed against Add's to raise their defensive power. Shiro seemed to know what was going on, so he stayed close.

        They were outnumbered and surrounded. Both sides of the potential fight stayed still to avoid the outbreak of a battle. What made things worse was that the entire El Search Party must have been there. It was easy to tell l because Ciel was with them. Not only that, but a total of twelve members surrounded them, most, if not all but Ciel, having the intent to kill.

        "Elesis, I have a request," one of them said. She was a nasod, so she must have been the nasod queen Eve who was known for her decision to persue nasod researchers along with the El Search Party. Elesis nodded at Eve but kept her weapon pointed at them. "I think it would be better if we captured them for now. I would like to know what they planned on doing to my race one they'd gathered enough research. They're no different than all the rest, but I want to question these ones. They seem to at least be civilized enough to talk to," Eve spoke.

        (Y/n) found herself looking to Ciel who held a look of pity and regret. "If that is what you want to do, then go ahead. Once you are done with your questions, we will have to kill them. Those were out orders," Elesis said in reply.

        (Y/n) couldn't help but shake a little, thinking that she was about to die. She had never fought so many people at once even with help. Not only were there members of the El Search Party that specialized in close combat, but there were also long range attackers as well. "(Y/n)...don't fight them for now. We've lost this fight. If we attack, you could lose your life," Add said to her. It was only loud enough for her to hear but everyone around them seemed to know what they were about to do.

        Add lowered his dynamos to the ground and (y/n) followed his example. She didn't want to give up, yet she didn't see to have much of a choice. Even though Add hadn't exactly said they were going to die, he had pretty much told her that he'd have to think of a plan to get them out of their situation.

        "You're both turning yourselves in? Good. Get on your knees. Elsword, go and bound them so that we can take them away. Rena, Ciel, and Chung, be on stand by just in case either of them tries anything," Elesis said. Just as Elesis had told them, they got on their knees and awaited capture.

        Elsword did as he was told, but the simple fact that he was alone gave (y/n) a crazy idea. It was sure to be a 50% failure or a 50% success. All she needed to know was which one of them Elsword would tie up first.

        Just as she had hoped, Elsword went to her first. Had he done otherwise, they'd truly be stuck. Now all (y/n) needed to do was get her secret weapon. It was quite literally a secret weapon too.

        She quickly jumped up and grabbed Elsword in a headlock and summoned a simple pocket knife from her tattoo which she put to his throat. "Don't shoot or I'll kill him right now!" (y/n) threatened before any of the long range attackers could harm them. Everyone was shocked at her speed and the sudden attack. (Y/n) held the knife so close to Elsword's throat that she had caused him to bleed a little. The El Search Party was watching her every move and looked at Elsword with a pleading look of sorts.

        "Add, we're all standing still. You know what to do," (y/n) said in hopes that he would understand what she was getting at. He did and as he picked up Shiro and stood, his dynamos were reactivated. (Y/n)'s dynamas were too, but she put them back in tattoo form while keeping the knife firmly to Elsword's throat. The boy slightly shook possibly from fear of dying.

        Add put his back to (y/n)'s so that they were close enough and he used his wristband to teleport them, all four of them since Shiro was included, to Elder's forest. Elesis cried out to Elsword before they left and the entire El Search Party ran forward to save Elsword but knew it was already too late.

        When the four of them we in the forsts of Elder, Add immediately put Shiro down and took the ropes that Elsword was still holding and used them to bound Elsword's hands behind his back while (y/n) kept him still. The knife was still to his throat so he didn't dare move. When Add was sure that the ropes were tied tight enough, he stepped back and looked at (y/n).

        "You're clever for thinking of that little stunt of yours, but what are we going to do now?" Add asked.

        "We need to think of a plan and take care of this guy for a while. We can't just leave him here to die," she replied.

        "I know that. I didn't plan on harming him. We can't let him just run off though. Summon that lab for me so I can find somewhere to put him until we figure something out," Add said. (Y/n) nodded and removed the knife from Elsword's throat but Add immediately let his dynamos circle around the boy to keep him still. He looked frightened and wearily watched the dynamos float around him. Shiro walked over to him and gave a meow in greeting perhaps seeking attention from their prisoner.

        As soon as (y/n) was done summoning the lab from her tattoo, she went back to Add who now had Shiro in his arms. (Y/n) grabbed Elsword's wrist and pulled him over to them so that Add could teleport them inside.

        "Leave him on the couch for now," Add muttered while letting Shiro jump to the ground. (Y/n) pushed Elsword onto the couch where he stayed tied up. She and Add were about to leave to their rooms but Elsword said something.

        "You...really aren't going to kill me?" he asked while looking at Add specifically.

        "No. What good would that do. Besides, I'm not evil," Add replied while frowning at Elsword. He seemed to notice something and looked over to (y/n). "You should take care of that cut that you made on his throat," he said to her. (Y/n) nodded and went to retrieve the first aid kit. When she came back, she sat next to Elsword and adressed his small wound.

        Add was nowhere to be found so (y/n) left Elsword there on the couch to look for him. Before she left the room, she caught a glimse of Elsword's puzzled expression and she almost laughed at the fact that he thought they would kill him. Killing him wouldn't get any research done.
