They were at Rain's small little cabin, as two cars pull up. One a red an black Chevy Camero 2008 and the other was a blue an black Dodge Charger 2009. The black girl, who was dressed in a pink dress, hopped out of the Chevy an into the passenger of the Dodge, leaving the Chevy running.
"Looks like our ride is here. Let's just go to town an find some weapons before we do anything. Kim could get anyone to hurt us. We must be prepared, alright?" Amanda spoke, looking out the window, in sadness.
"Me and Amanda will go. Zack, Rose, stay here." Rain walked out the door, with Amanda following. They got in the car. Rain driving, an Amanda in the passenger seat. Music was playing. 'War Child- Hollywood Undead'.
"Amanda.. I want to apologize. You don't deserve any of this. I'm sorry for having intentions to kill you. I wish you could truly forgive me, deep within." Rain sounded, the saddest he's been in awhile.
"Look, Rain, this isn't your fault. I get it. At least you didn't follow through with it. Also, can I ask you something?" Amanda started to stare out the window an think of how she'd word this question of hers.
"Anything." Rain smiled lightly, Amanda didn't even notice, she was too busy staring out the window.
"What do you do.. When there's a guy you like, an he kisses you... I saw something like this before, an they didn't end too well." Amanda's voice cracked towards the end.
"Well, sweetheart, if you like the guy, an he kisses you, when he does, you can feel his feelings fall out of him, an meet you, when you kiss. I'm no relationship expert, but, your friends, failed because, there wasn't much love there. It is what I call, Temporary Love. That or, well, it just wasn't meant to be. Love will find it's way if it's meant to happen sweetie." Rain said ever so sweetly. Amanda caught herself with a tiny smile.
"Thanks, Rain. Really helps." She said with joy. After about two hours of silence, Amanda saw the city she once lived in. "Home sweet home" her eyes started to water.
"Amanda, I'm going to run in, an gather a few things that we'll need. Stay here in the car." Amanda nods in agreement as they pull into a little ally way, outback of a mall. Rain gives Amanda one last look before he leaves, he notices shes not paying much attention, so he got out, an locked the car. 'Truth-Seether' was on the radio. Amanda was lost in thoughts.
' What if I don't make it out alive? We all die in the end. Why do I fight my fate? I just need to let her take me. My parent's are dead, my sister disappeared the night of my parent's death. I could run back to Kim, an let her do as she pleases. I was a mistake. I just put people's lives on the line...' Amanda opened her door an started to walk down the ally. 'I need to go to where I know, I'll get a way back to Kim, Rain would never take me.' Amanda's eyes started to water.
"Amanda! Where are you?!" Rain called out, his footsteps getting closer an closer. She went a hid behind a trashcan. She watched as the boy ran past the trashcan, and when we went out of sight, she took off running the opposite way. Her phone rang. 'Zack' was the name that popped up. She was hesitant to answer, but she didn't want him worrying, so she answered.
"Yes Zack?" Amanda spoke out of breath.
"Amanda. Don't hang up on me, alright? Where are you?" Zack's voice was worried, you could tell he was trying to hold back tears.
"I'm in the city, I'm going to find someone to take me to Kim, Don't argue with me Zack. This is my choice. Respect it." Amanda hung up the phone, throwing it down in a puddle of water. Amanda went to run again, only to be cornered by five big men. They were dressed in all black, an taller than her. The first, had the biggest grin.
"Looks like we have our desert guys, looks pure, too. Perfect." the second had the evilest grin, despite it being small. The second steps towards Amanda. She tries to turn an run back, but the second guy tackles her. He caresses her hair. "What's a pretty girl like you doing out here, this late, in a dark ally?" Amanda tries to scream but his hand covers her mouth. "Never mind that, you're ours now. As his hands run down her head to her sides, a voice comes from ahead of them.
"I'd suggest you not. Leave an I'll spare your life's." Amanda has never been happier to hear Asadeath's voice.
"Like I'd believe you're the amazing Asadeath. She's a sworn enemy, I'd love to get my paws on that. But, you'll do. Asadeath would pay no attention to such a petty girl who can't even protect herself against one little human." The third spoke with a rather high voice.
"She isn't just a random girl. She an someone I know, like each other. I won't just sit around an watch a soul be ended like this. If I let you proceed, it would break my rule of protecting the ones who cant. Let her go, or else." Asadeath moved her hand out of her pocket, an something shiny can be seen. "Do I really need use Reaper of Demons? I'd prefer not to." You can hear the evil in her voice. She points a rather large dagger at the men, as the guy that tackled Amanda, hurries off, giving her just enough time to run towards Asadeath. Amanda an Asadeath take off running.
"Thank you." Amanda huffs out.
"This is where you'd end up? Because I wouldn't let you guys stay with me at my house, under my protection?" Asadeath spoke with a little hint of disappointment. Amanda explained the whole situation.
"Amanda, look, you're useful, you're loved, you aren't just a nobody who doesn't deserve to live. You're Amanda Gallo! Wear your title strong. If you did that, you'd destroy Zack, Rain, an Rose. Even me. Sure I give death to people but that's aside the point. They deserve it, they do awful crimes. I bet you didn't know.. There was a time, I was just like you. I had no power to protect myself, I was just a little girl who was always being pushed around. There was never anyone to aid to me. I was always alone. I have scars all over me from it. Self harm, others, it damages a soul. You're very close to your breaking point. Asadeath isn't my real name. Zack doesn't even know my real name, but it's A-" Asadeath was cut off but Rain running to them.
"Thank God you're alright! Asa, what are you doing here?" Rain said with relief.
"I needed to get a new cloak. It was stained beyond belief." Asadeath spoke as she played with her new black cloak, that lays over her red dress, it reached an dragged on the ground a bit. Rain grabbed Amanda an shoved her in the car. He mouthed 'We will talk about this later'
"Asadeath, need a ride? Doesn't look like you have a car." Rain looked around.
"I took a train, but sure.."Asadeath hopped in the car, behind the drivers seat. Rain got in, an looked at Amanda. As she opened her mouth to speak, Asadeath stopped her.
"I saw walking an she hopped out an we walked an talked for a little bit." Asadeath flashed a quick smile to Amanda. She returned it.
