Lost Light

Chapter 17: The Elf and Rabbit

Dian Chect Hospital

A Rabbit was in a room beginning to wake up, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he noticed an Elf with a small smile looking at him as he awakens.

Ryuu: Hello Bell

eyes wide open, he reached for his face without a second thought, but there was nothing. His heart began to race, sweat started pouring, shaken up

Bells thoughts: Shit shit, I need to get out of here

As his eyes looked around, seeing a way to get out of this, he could feel a hand touching him, so he could stop knowing it was Ryuu. He turned to her to his surprise, she was crying

Ryuu: Are you going to leave me again

this made Bell uncertain of what to do. He remembers what happened in the fight against Revis and Valletta, but simultaneously, someone in front of him cared for him deeply. He couldn't keep two promises to stay by Ryuu's side, and the second was to avenge his family, but he completed neither with nothing else. He only said one thing

Bell: . . . . I'm sorry

those words were not enough for the Elf. She wanted answers for the month he was gone. She couldn't think about anyone but him worrying every second if he was okay or if he was even alive, but now right here he was in front of her, and she wanted answers

Ryuu: Why

Bell: Huh

Ryuu: Why did you leave

Bell: . . . . . .

Ryuu: Bell, tell me now

Bell: . . . . I wanted to be stronger.

Ryuu: And

Bell: And?

Ryuu: There's more, right

Bell: . . . A promise

Ryuu: Promise?

Bell: I made a promise

This made the Elf mad at the fact that she also was made a promise to her, but in a whisper, she asked.

Ryuu: And my promise

Bell: What

In a bit of anger, the Elf yelled at Bell

Ryuu: WHAT ABOUT MY PROMISE!

Bell: I-I

Seeing him nervous, she realized what she had just done and tried to leave

Ryuu: I'm sorry. I should go

Before walking away from Bell's side, a hand held her to not leave

Bell: It's okay, Ryuu. I understand why your mad

Ryuu: I didn't mean to . . . .

Seeing how Ryuu was, he had an idea to cheer her up

Bell: It's okay, how about this I'm still drained from the fight, so how about tomorrow you and I go out together, and ill tell you whatever you want to know

Surprised by the idea of them going out together, she had a hint of red on her face

Ryuu: I would like that

Bell: Then I'll come by the hostess tomorrow to pick you up

Ryuu: Are you sure you're okay? You were really hurt when we brought you here
