karma's a girl

chapter 6

Hey guys.
Sorry for the long wait i have been quite busy the last couple of days so heres the update
Enjoy:)

What was going on??

Eric carried on causing me to sigh and turn around facing Rough who had this weird look in his eyes.

Of course! I mentally slapped myself before stepping away. I wouldn't be able to stop him anyway.  I saw the man gasp as he realised what I figured out and his eyes seemed to crinkle with worry. Clearing my throat to gain his attention I began.

" So good thing we arrived here in time hmm," I started calmly. He nodded. " He crazy. Tried killing!" He managed to gasp out Yeah I can see that. I eyed his arm which seemed to be broken. He better get it checked.

"Any who....where's Milards? I swear he's in charge of all of this. I need to have a few words" I can tell this man isn't the one who I need to discuss the situation with. Which will probably end with me walking out in a mood.

He nodded and left quickly,looking back only once at Eric. " soo Rough want to unhypnotise him?" I asked and Rough jumped and grinned sheepishly. " not until he finishes cleaning. This place is nothing like the outside at all," he replied as if it wasn't a big deal. The silence stretched on as I was deep in my thoughts. " why?" I finaly asked watching Eric move on from one table to another.Something told me to leave him to cleaning because he created the mess or i'm assuming he did. I guess thats the karma side of me. Rough looked at me surprise clear in his eyes. " he was going to stab you! " he  exclaimed as if it was obvious.
 "and i had it under control," I calmly said. " didn't look like it, " he muttered under his breath. I glared at him. " Rough look I'm thankful you did what you thought was best ok but that's not how I like to handle things." I explained trying to get through to his head.

Tears filled his eyes. " I'm only trying to help!" He screamed and then fell down sobbing Eric going unconscious and dropping along with him. What? Okay we really need to talk. Something is obviously bothering him.

A man came scurrying in unbuttoning his coat. To me he looked like a mouse.He had his sandy hair pushed to the side and had this whole air of authority over him. He sported a small pair of hazel eyes with flecks of green and brown mixed which were framed by dark eyebrows. He wore a white shirt and grey trousers and a blazer which pockets seemed to be filled.

where on earth was he during the whole of this? Well he's here now I guess.

" hello mr -" a loud sob filled the room interrupting me " Umm Mr-" another sob " I was cal-" roughs sniffles became louder. I cleared my throat trying again. " what I'm trying to say is-" A groan filled the room from Eric as he got up.

"Oh for God's sake!" I almost screeched.

" look I'm going to cut this short ok. I would like to know why was there experimenting?" He opened his mouth to explain. Then I thought again.
" actually you know what?!" I cut him of "we will meet next week and discuss this," I waved my arms about," in a more civil and better environment. Oh and there better be a good explanation for going against my orders!'' I finished off trying to keep an eye on Roughs body sobbing and Eric's movements however it seemed impossible. This wouldn't be a good time to talk so ill just leave them to clean up. Atleast Eric did quite abit.

"Rough, Eric we are leaving " I carried on leaving the man in confusion. He has obviously not worked with a karma before. We put our people before alot of things. Rough sniffle and wiped his now red and slightly puffy eyes and Eric just looked confused. His eyes were calm however he was still shaking.

" Eric, you can trust me come on!" I stated trying to leave quickly. He shot up at seeing me and nervously walked towards me. His eyes met Rough and he hesitated. " look Eric this is my friend no need to be scared. " I tried to grab his arm but he shot back however, he nodded towards me and walked out with me. It didn't take a genius to tell he was trying to stay away from Rough. Rough looked confused. Poor soul. His eyes held a look of sadness. Hmm I forgot he's very sensitive. Hopefully he carries on being nice and gains Eric's trust the normal way.

As we left in silence, the lights from the place decided to fail. Knowing Eric he was scared of the dark, I reached out to get a hold of him to find him a shaking mess. I feel sorry for the kid.

"don't you have anything to take us outside?" I heard a voice ask. It was Rough. " don't you? Your the vampire" I retorted. " I do have a torch on my phone. " I took it out and switched it on.

" here hold him" I commanded Rough. Rough reached out for Erics hand but Eric shyed away and grabbed a hold of me."please don't let him touch me.." Eric sounded genuinely scared and my heart squeezed. He was acting so much younger then he actually was. He's like 13 while rough is 14 from what he has told us however people think he's lying and shouldn't be trusted.

" he won't hurt you" I soothed. Rough rolled his eyes " why's he here anyway? He's just a kid. So fragile and weak" he seemed offended by Eric fearing him and I guess is now beginning to be mean. I shot him a glare as Eric just gripped me tighter.

" it's none of your business. Come on we still need to talk. Let's just get out of this dump " I answered him and lead the way out, holding Eric's hand and willing Rough to just follow.

So there it is!!
