New life

Part 18 [American against American?]

I glanced to the side, only to see Alfred walking through the branches, moving them away from his face, before he looked forward, and turned to us, "What are you guys talking about?" he asked calmly.
My eyes widen, looking around, but seeing no 2ps anywhere, only the green of the forest we were in, I flashed a glance at Fen and Stephanie, though they had the same expression as me, looking around in shock.
Moving my blue gaze back on Alfred who was confused, I clear my throat, and hesitantly speak up, "Oh, ah.. nothing." I murmur slowly back at him.
The American blinked, with a tilted head, "Didn't you check your phone, I was calling and texting you for a while before deciding to look for you guys." he stated, with slightly narrowed eyes as he walked over.
I take my phone out, looking at the messages again, before looking up at him and biting my lip, "Sorry, I lost track of time." I murmur softly.
He smiled slightly before winking, "It's all good dude, but come on, Francis and Arthur might come today soon." he explained, while I nodded, "Alright, let's go."
As we slowly start to walk off, with me and America in the front, and Stephanie and Fen behind us, we were about to enter the thickness of the forest, before hearing a squeal from behind us. Turning around, my eyes widened, as I saw 2p America, one his hands holding Stephanie's wrist which she was cursing and trying to get away, while his other arm wrapped around Fen, a smirk on his face, "Where are you three going." he slurred softly, raising a brow, before glancing at us.
My body freezes, as I grab the sleeve of Alfred's jacket, as I step back, suddenly hearing Alfred, "What the- 2p?!" he yelled, his eyes narrowed.
"Hello fat ass," he huffed, his eyes slightly became colder, "Nobody invited you here." he huffed.
"Let them go Allen!" Alfred yelled, his eyes narrowed as he took a step forward, "I will call the Allies!" he threatened.
Allen only chuckled, with a grin plastered on his face, "Who says I don't have my own fighting force." he tilted his head slightly, as he did so, a glimpse of glowing eyes showed out from the shadows around us, even so, Alfred's eyes narrowed, as he stepped forward again, making Allen let Stephanie's wrist go, before raising his hand up, and a bat appeared, falling a short distance to his hand, as he swung it, and launched the bat at Alfred. Note again. The bat's top was filled with jabbed with many bent nails. As it was thrown at the American, Alfred's eyes slightly widened, before he leaped to the side, the bat tumbling to the ground behind them. With a growl, Allen's red eyes gleamed an angered hatred, before his body filling into a solid black color, before him withering away quickly, letting Stephanie and Fen both move away from that place.
My eyes widened, as before Alfred could turn around, Allen quickly appeared from the 1p's shadow behind him, kicking him in the back to the ground, before disappearing again and retrieving his bat. The 2p grumbled, before walking up to Alfred who was kneeling to get up. The 2p American quickly moved to the side, before hitting the 1p in the stomach, "Poor excuse for a 1p..." he muttered, before slightly throwing his bat lightly in the air, catching it.
Seeing this in slow motion, my eyes widen, as I reached down in my purse to grab my phone, to call for help, though felt, again, something cool. Quickly taking it out, I noticed a silver gleam and a shine as I unlocked a sharp small blade, of the pocket knife. Looking back up, my eyes hit a gleaming flash of a cold blue, 'I could help Alfred... I could finally be a hero! Eh... nah... Fuck that.' I think, before my eyes narrowing, and me muttering, "Screw this." Running up, right as Allen was raising his bat to swing down, I rammed into his side, making him hit the ground under me, quickly and randomly stabbing a random place with the pocket knife. My eyes widen as I notice, I've stabbed the 2p in the shoulder, at the pressure point between your bones.
He yelled with pain, before glaring up at me with a deadly stare, and growling, "You little bitch!" he hissed, before jerking his other hand up, and hitting me at the side of my face, pushing me off of him with the force.
Just as he was about to stand, Alfred moved up, hitting him in a swift uppercut, making him fall down and kneel down, looking down at the ground with wide eyes, before coughing, and spitting out blood, glancing to the side, he noticed his tooth has been knocked out, but before he could standing again, Alfred hit him in the stomach with the roof of his ankle, like the 2p did to him, "Get out of the forest!" he glanced at Fen and Stephanie, who were kneeling near me, before them nodding, slightly helping me up, and with a good tug, I was back up at my feet. Sure. Maybe a cut lip, and a cut below my eye, but what the heck, better than dead.
We ran. I glanced behind me, only to see trees, a pain stabbed my heart as I realized we left Alfred to all of them. I had thoughts of stopping and going back to him, though fear kept me back. I know. Wimpy. I would hate myself later. Moving through the forest, I felt myself being watched again, looking around I saw flashes of eyes, looking behind me, my eyes widened as I say Alfred running after us, a cloud of darkness with two blood red narrowed eyes swirling after him. Finally, sun hit me, and I suddenly tripped over Fen's feet, falling down, her also falling, while Stephanie being pulled down with us. Groaning, my eyes widen quickly, remembering, and whirling around, only to see Alfred running out of the forest and jumping out, doing a freaking barrel roll as he tripped over his own feet, onto the open grass land, nothing following us.
My eyes widen, as I scramble up, running towards him, "Alfred?!" I call out, kneeling down next to him, Fen running after me, and Stephanie soon also.
Alfred groaned, stirring, though at least conscious, he looked up at us, before glancing at the forest, and sighing, "They won't follow us anymore, no shadows, it's too risky for them.." he murmured breaking a small smile, as we all got out of it.
Fen sighed, "You stupid idiot, how can you smile!" she yelled, though hugging him, her arms around his neck, "You stupid, stupid, hero." she murmured, before quickly giving him a peck on the cheek, a smile on her face, and her eyes shining at him, finally letting him go.
The American slightly blushed, before slowly raising his upper body, "Lets go into the car, I don't know what they can still do." he murmured.
As we stumbled back in the car, I leaned my chin against my hand which was supported by the door, and as we turned, I swore I could see most of the 2ps there. At the edge of the forest. Watching. There gaze filled with hatred, and darkness. Before I looked away, and we drove away.

"You foolish idiot!" Oliver grumbled as he walked back and forth, his eyes darkened.
Allen sighed, as he sat on the ground, leaning on a tree trunk, as Sarah calmly checked his shoulder, not saying anything, "Shut up! I wasn't expecting one of them to get involved!" he hissed, his red eyes still gleaming a soft aurora around them from the hate.
"Well they did! And now we don't have them! Shame on you! Honestly, Al for letting a 1p get away, along with the three girls!" the Brit exclaimed with a groan, placing his hand on his forehead.
Allen flashed him a gleam, "Stop acting as you're my father, old man! I'll get my revenge."
Oliver turned to him, and was about to say something through was interrupted by Ashlyn as she skipped over, "Ollie!" she sang, moving up to him.
"Huh? Ah.. yes poppet?" the freckled male turned to her with softer eyes, and a small grin.
"I want to help you! I want to see them suffer with their blood on my hands until they die slowly and painfully! Anything for you Ollie~!" she said cheerfully.
Oliver blinked, before chuckling slightly, "Eh... well, alright poppet, I guess you can." he stated, patting her head softly.
Ashlyn giggled in joy, before her face slightly stiffening as she turned to Allen, her eyes dropping a shine, and her small lessened, "Oh right, here, I got this for you," she murmured, taking her satchel from her belt, before tilting her head, and shoving her whole arm down the bag, even though the pouch was small, she dug deeper in it, until the bag had eaten up her arm to her shoulder, finally her eyes brightening, "Aha! There it is!" she cheered, pulling her arm out, along with a box. She opened it, revealing a blue and pink cupcake, she took it, and gave it to Allen, "I got it for you Ollie!" she said proudly.
"Oh thank you, poppet, you are much help." Oliver stated with a smile at the girl, while Allen sighed, though ate the cupcake, before after a few minutes he rolled his shoulder and stood up, feeling much better, as he took his jacket and put it back on, "Alright," he blinked, before smirking, his eyes gleamed, "Now lets talk about how to get back at these motherfuckers..."
