kouko.

The room is silent. Not a single sound can be heard. kouko is staring at the ground while Lena with a face of many emotions stares at her. "...W-what are you trying to get at?" says Lena horrified. "I'm trying to explain my actions to you Lena so that you can understand why I did what I did," said kouko. As soon as Lena heard her she got up and run out of the room searching the house. "WHERE IS HE?!" shouted Lena while running around the house. room after room she searched finding absolutely nothing. While running down the stairs to search again downstairs she bumps into kouko "WHERE IS HE? WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM?" shouted Lena. "don't worry I've done nothing to him physically, he's just out drinking with his "friends"" kouko said calmly. After hearing that Lena's knees gave up and she fell to the ground from relieve.

"you really think I could lay a hand on that monster?" said kouko "trust me lena, you don't know the first thing about that man. his strength isn't the only abnormal thing about him.". "w-what do you mean?" Lena asked, but kouko stayed silent not giving her an answer. "now Lena. its time I tell you what I originally wanted to tell you." kouko said while crouching down to Lena's level "me, or octan". with a look of confusion, Lena stares at kouko. "w-what?", "it's simple Lena, would you rather stay with me or octan." kouko asked. "is that some type of trick question? haven't we been living together? aren't you two lovers? what is happening here?" Lena asked question after question confused. "me? his lover? come on Lena haven't you heard anything I just said? he is the reason my family is fucking dead, and why? because he didn't see them as worth his time." kouko said with an angered face. "I'm leaving this place, Lena, I'm leaving with everything he has leaving him with nothing. even if I can't hurt him physically I will make sure he still suffers a bit a couple of weeks ago he told me where he hid all of his money and saving and since then I've been planning this out, today is finally the day Lena. the day I leave this hell hole. every day was suffering with him, but there was one thing that was keeping me going. It was you, Lena, you were the only reason I could withstand staying with him that long. so please Lena, think carefully before you choose." (what is this?) (what is going on) (is this for real) all types of questions popped up in Lena's head until she finally gave out her answer.

As Lena opened her mouth to talk kouko could feel her chest tighten..."......octan" the word had slipped out of her mouth "Octan." and then she repeated again confirming her choice kouko's face went from one of warmth to one of despair as she heard her. "I'm sorry Lena, but u never had a choice in the first place. I was gonna take you anyway but thought maybe u would pick me yourself, I guess life isn't so nice to me after all." "W-WHAT ARE YOU ON ABOUT? I CHOOSE OCTAN SO LEAVE Me wit..h.....h-" as Lena started screaming her she slowly fell unconscious as she realized the cause of it (the drink), she could hear kouko's last words before fully falling unconscious. "don't worry Lena, I will take good care of you."

God knows how long has passed as Lena barely was able to open her eye. she is fully tied up in the back of a cart while kouko and some man are in the driver's seat. "CAN'T THIS THING GO ANY FASTER, HE CAN EASILY CATCH UP TO US ON FOOT ON THIS PACE!" kouko is yelling towards the man controlling the horses "i-I'm sorry ma'am but this is as fast as it goes." Lena tried to do something about the ropes but she just couldn't she was not as strong as she used to be and her whole body is frail now. she was tied to a part of the cart so that she wouldn't fall off which made rolling out of it impossible. As soon as she realized her situation she hated herself, was playing around really worth it? was doing nothing helpful really worth it? was the last year really worth it? it wasn't, but....it was fun. if only she had been stronger she thought as she fell unconscious again.

This time she was laying down on something made out of wood, it is swaying up and down. There are 2 people standing next to her, one is a big man she does not know, while the other is kouko. She silently stares at kouko with all the little power she has on her, kouko realizes she's awake and talks to her. "l-Lena you're awake. don't worry about anything Lena we are almost there just continue sleepi-" Lena fell unconscious again.
