For You I Will (Noblesse OC Fanfiction)

Chapter 5

Before anything else, I would like to apologize for the ultra lateness. My grades dropped and I had to catch up a bit. Hope you understand :3 Anyways, enjoy!

[Athena's POV]

Ultra short Recap!!!

"See I told you she's still around."

Present :3

I turned to look and found myself staring face to face with a bunch or a group of human males. They're looking at me weirdly, as if I'm some kind of treasure waiting to be grabbed.

"Hey there." The male with yellow hair smiled lustfully. He stepped forward, feeling confident with himself, "I saw you lying there all alone and I thought you needed some company."

"..." I didn't say anything or, to me more precise, didn't bother talking at all. The males behind him also looked at me the same way as their leader. I wanted to teach them a lesson but I was given the feeling that I shouldn't harm a single hair on them or I'll be in serious trouble.

"Aww come on, " he cooed, "Don't ignore us. We just wanted to help you."

"I don't need your help." I replied coldly, making them flinch but they laughed it out afterwards, "You're cold. We like it~"

I'm itching to grab my sword that's beneath my coat but again, that tiny voice inside my head keeps saying, "If you do that, it'll get you in trouble~" plus the teasing tone didn't really help. The males saw that I wasn't really biting to their bait or whatever they're doing so they decided to use their Plan B; force.

I didn't want to play as the damsel in distress but apparently that's what this situation gave me. Much to my shock, Lazark appeared in front of me with all his silent glory, "It would be of your best interest to return to your village now." He said, cool and calm. I haven't seen him use mind control before. Maybe it's because we haven't seen each other in a while and I have a task given to me which required distance and time.

When the mortals left he turned to me and asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Thank you." As much as I wanted to say heck, what can a bunch of humans do to me? but decided since that would make me boastful and boasting is never found in my book.

"It's been a while since I last saw you." He said. I smiled ever so lightly, "It has."

"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be assisting the Noblesse?"

I replied, "I did."

"Did?"

I looked away, feeling embarrassed, "I--uhh kind of lost him."

He was at lost for words as I was so I explained to him what happened and what I think how it happened.

"We should go look for him." He said, "If we split up, we'll cover more ground. He wouldn't have gotten far."

I nodded in agreement and took the right side while he searched left. Minutes have passed and I think that I'm the one who's lost now. I'm on foreign ground and I don't know how to return.

"Just perfect." I shook my head and slumped on a stump, frustration already creeping into me.

"Athena?"

I know that voice...
