Marionette and the Blue Demon (Rewritten)

Chapter 8 Blood

-Airmed-

It was the dreaded day. The day that Michael came back. I woke up to yelling and screaming. I sprung out of bed and ran down the stairs. I stopped a few steps from the bottom and crouched down so I could be somewhat hidden.

"No! With all those cuts if you were to make Airmed use her quirk she will have to go to the hospital again!" I heard Michelle scream.

"She's mine! She is my Girlfriend she's done what I ask." Michael yelled back.

"No! That's inhumane! You don't love her you just use her as a punching bag you fucking psycho!"

I saw his gear up to hit her. I quickly jumped down the rest of the stairs and ran in between them. "I'm here! Don't hurt her!" My voice was meek but loud. I planted my feet on the ground just in case he decided to throw his punch. But instead, he loses his stance and gently placed his hand on my cheek and rubbed his hand on my cheek bone.

"There you are Doll. I'd missed you." I could feel him rubbing against the cut on my face making it sting. "Now then share with me your gift." I had no idea how bad his cuts were.

"Airmed you don't have to do it. He can just let them heal." Michelle piped up.

"Quite." He snapped at her.

I gently placed my hand on his and nuzzled into his hand to try to take the attention off of her. "Michael." My voice was soft but it made him look at me. I gave him a soft smile even though inside I was screaming.

His face soften and with my free hand, I tried to signal Michelle to run. But she didn't see it. Instead, she grabbed my hand and pulled me away from him.

His face lit up in anger. "Give. Her. Back." He pronounced every word. Michelle pulled me behind her ready to fight if need be. "One last warning, Firefly."  He tilt his head, if his eyes could kill she would have been on the ground six feet under.

"No." Her answer was short and stern. Michael lost it and charged at us. Firefly pushed me to the side ready to take a beating.

But I wasn't gonna stand for it. She shouldn't be punished because of me. I moved quickly, and Michelle dodged his slow blow. But he punched through the marble floor.

"She is not some toy you bastard!" Michelle screamed at him. She clenched her fist. Granted her quirk was nothing compared to his brute strength. The lights around the room lit up. There was a slight buzz of electricity running through them.

Michael stood up again and pushed off with his legs to charge at her again. This time she wouldn't have been able to dodge him. I fell to the floor and grabbed his ankle and used my quirk.

I gave him everything, from my self-mutilation. To the stab wound, I have gotten from that stranger. Michael dropped from the instant pain. His blood started to ooze from the stab wound on his side. If he doesn't get the switch as I did surely he would bleed out.

I stood up and looked down at him. Michael was clutching his side. Blood gushed out staining his clothes.

I stood in fear. 'oh god what have I done?' I stopped breathing, my heart stopped, it felt like time stop. My ears were ringing, the tips of my fingers cold and numb.

I could hear my name but it sounded so far away. "AIRMED!" Michelle grabbed my wrist and ran with me. Everything was a blur, and I was hardly keeping up. The only thing I knew was we were outside.

Michelle pushed me into the car and she jumped into the driver's seat. She quickly turned on the car and drove.

"Mi..... Michelle...." My voice was shaking. I lifted my hands and looked at them. Even though they were clean all I could see was blood on them. "I'm so sorry!" I screamed.
