Love for the Troubled | Zodiac Story

Chapter fifth-teen (fifteen) ~

"Dammit" Scorpio breathed out as he leaned against the wall holding his ear.

The zodiacs were outside of the supply room hoping to make it back to their worlds without being seen.

Sagittarius turned his head to the edge of the wall and looked up to see if there were any signs of lord Ophiuchus and his puppets- workers.

"We can make it to the building at Northeast if we make a run for it" Sagittarius informed them and Aquarius turned to the man with a confused look.

"All of us head to Northeast?"

"Yes."

"But the world above is towards South from here. You should be heading there." Aqua told him and Sagittarius shook his head.

"What's important is to bring you guys back to the world under without getting caught by Lord Ophiuchus. We're helping you with this Capricorn case so we will help with this too." Sagittarius replied and then pushed himself towards the wall.

"Now go!" Sagittarius called out and Taurus ran towards the Northeast construction.

"Aquarius, go now." Sagittarius demanded as the other zodiacs were making a run for it.

"Where are you going then??"

"Oh for Amelia's sake-"

Sagittarius grabbed Aquarius's hand and ran towards the building as they were the last two to head there.

A sudden pain struck scorpios ear as he ran forward which made him lose his pace.

"Scorpio!" Aries let out as he ran faster to catch up to his friend.

Cancer turned her head at the other direction when she heard the sounds of voices coming out of nowhere.

She then grabbed her shirt and ripped a thin piece of of it and through it at Aries.

"Give that to scorpio, we have to keep moving!" Cancer said to them as she noticed before the blood pouring from scorpios hand.

Aries placed the ripped piece of clothing on scorpios ear as they began to pick up the pace.

"What a pain in the ass" Scorpio mumbled as he started to endure the pain. He felt like he was making things harder for them and he hated that.

"Hey, just keep moving your legs." Aries spoke and Scorpio did just that.

Libra finally stopped before taking deep breaths from the run. She had reached the Northeast building.

"I didn't think I would get here before them" Libra whispered to herself and then she heard small coughs from besides her.

"I always thought I was a pretty slow runner until today...or maybe I still am, just got a head start." Taurus let out as he had reached their destination before Libra.

"I regret coming here..." Libra told to herself since she didn't expect to be running and hiding from the lord of the world under (and also be running and hiding WITH the lord's son).

"I need a drink" Leo breathed out once he reached the duo. He licked his dry lips with water on his mind.

"I am not one to run" Cancer spoke out as she leaned against the wall after following behind Leo. She then slowly stretched and sat down on the ground.

"Give me water, Cancer" Leo said to her and she raised her brow.

"I don't have water."

"But isn't water like your thing?"
