Piers Nivans x Reader Part 1/3 [Being Whole Again ~ Revenge]

9. Agility

Angry, you stomp after Chris, leaving Finn and Piers frozen for a moment. After realizing what you just did for his sake, he quickly runs after you two. Finn is on his tail.
"Wait ! You don't have to do this !" Piers shouts. He grabs your arm but you draw away from the contact. Not in fear, but in rage.
"You know how well I have to do that." you say as Piers slows down next to you. He is impressed, and somehow a bit startled. You have never been that angry at something around him

"We are here." Chris announces with a proud smirk.
Your breath hitches. It. Is. Giant.
'How didn't I notice that thing before ?' You ask yourself with a raised eyebrow.
Chris orders Piers to his side. "Piers, give her your headset. In case something goes wrong." he says with that annoying monotone voice. Once again you think 'How could a charming guy like Chris turn into a complete asshole in less than 5 minutes ?!'
But your thoughts fade away as you notice a presence next to you. You look to your left and see Piers with his earpiece in his hand. He gestures to your ear and asks almost shyly "May I...?" "Yes, of course." You answer a bit to enthusiastic. Piers beams a smile at you and carries on.
With one steady hand he tugs the strands of your shiny (h/c) hair behind your ear. (Sorry if your length doesn't fit at this scene..\(^o^')/). You stiff at the contact, but relax soon once your brain and body register that this is Piers. Not some rapist. Just Piers.
The said man adjusts the earpiece and after a few tests you are ready to go.
"OK. Get to the roof. You'll get more information if....when you're up there." Chris states.
You look up the building, searching for a way. And then you notice it. Barbed wire.
You take a step towards the building but a hand grabbing yours tightly. Gasping you turn around in a flash and you are face to face with Piers.
"What is it, Piers." you ask him with a frown.
"Nothing just....be careful." he scolds you shyly. 'Is...that..?' you think to yourself as you notice his pink cheeks.
"You know I can do that. But I will." you smile at him. Piers squeezes your hand again before letting go hesitantly.
You walk away, to this mountain of a building. This is going to be a cakewalk. There are enough windows. Chuckling under your breath you start climbing this thing. After having a good hold on the first window, you reach for the other.
But you hear a crack sound. On instinct you jump to the gutter. Once you are save you look back at the window.
"Watch out down there." you say through the earpiece. You look down to see the men jump back from the building a few feet.
"Are you okay ?" Finn asks.
"I've never been better." you answer, sarcasm dripping in your words.
You begin to run up the gutter. Almost at the roof the metal bows down slightly. 'Of course. What else could happen ?!'
You speed-up to reach the possibly highest point and jump. You reach the edge of the roof with one hand, but your other hand soon follows. But then you remember the barbed wire. Running out of strength you slowly pull yourself up. You see a little space between the roof and the wire. 'Here we go' you encourage yourself.
You pull your whole body on the edge of the roof. You just need a second. Being captured for months doesn't give you any space for such a training.
"Is everything alright ?" Piers now asks from the other side of the line.
Panting heavily you breath "Yeah, I'm OK. Don't worry so much, please." You blush at your own words and you don't even dare to look down at him.
Remembering the reason why you are up here you look around. You groan and push yourself up in a balancing pose in one fluid motion. Step by step you get nearer to the little space. Then you crouch again. A strong wind almost causes you to loose balance. But once you lay on your belly, the wind doesn't bother you anymore. You stay like that and push yourself through the space. Luckily your hair is on your side this time, by not getting caught in the wire.
"I'm on roof. Now what ?" You ask a little breathless.
"Somewhere up there should be a nest of an eagle. Get me a feather. Then come down as fast as you can." Chris orders.
"Yes, Captain." You respond sternly.
On the cue a cry of the said eagle catches your attention. You sigh and walk towards it. You look the eagle in the eye. "Please, let me take a feather. I want nothing more. I just want my friend spare a punishment he doesn't deserve." You carry on. You reach into the nest and grab a loose feather. You thank the eagle and walk away calmly.

You walk to the edge and hold up the feather.
"Awesome !" Finn called through the radio.
"Thanks. But I need you to do something." You request.
"What is it, (y/n) ?" Piers asks nervously.
"You need to get this haystack over there a bit nearer. Like last time." You say, your smirk heard in your voice.
Piers and Finn do as requested. You want to go through the space you came here again. But this time you get caught. By your leg. Right into the flesh. You cry out loud in pain. You struggle to balance to the edge. The blood is dripping through your jeans down on the roof.
You hear that one of the men tries to reach you. "M-m-my leg. Wire. I'm coming down now." You choke out.
"Be careful !" Rings through to your brain. You set a firm stand and push yourself up in the air. Just in time the eagle cries again.
You land in the hay with a hard thud, making you choke out in pain again.

You are pulled up by your arms. You open your eyes. The vision is blurry. Shakily you reach behind your back and hold up the feather.
"Are we free now ? Do you believe me ?" You ask Chris with a hoarse voice.
Chris only stares at you with wide eyes.

Piers, who's holding you the whole time, has had enough of this and speaks up "Do you define this as safe ?!" Piers growls at Chris as he gestures to you.
He picks you up bridal-style and carries you back to Mary.
After your head hit the pillow you are out like a light.
