Red Queen

Hunt XIV: Friendly Fire

"Do you think this is funny Orchid, do you?" A rather upset Rosa yelled.

"Mom are you ok? calm down." rose said worriedly.

"Rose take Yucca upstairs," Majus said.

"No, let her stay and listen," Orchid said.

"Yeah, why don't you tell'em why you never let people use your real name?" Rosa says.

"Because then you'd be caught in your web of lies?" Rosa said louder.

"Majus Vexillo Eden is my real, name I've never lied about anything," Majus said.

"If anything you're the liar Rosa, leaving after little Rose was born," Orchid said.

With that, it seemed as if time had stopped, and all was quiet. I felt a pure surge of murderous intent flow through me, and in a flash me, my mom had our blades at each other necks.

"Mom..."

"Rose..."

"It's been 12 years since I've seen you, I never thought this would happen."

"Stand down Rose before you get hurt," Rosa said coldly.

"Rosa, calm down," Majus said.

"Clear the room now Eden," Rosa said in a very cold tone.

Orchid and Majus cleared the room leaving just Rose and Rosa together.

"It seems you haven't obtained your awakening yet so I'll make this quick," Rosa said. 

Ther it was again that surge a murderous intent surged through me again.

"Here I come Rose," Rosa said coldly

Rosa moved with incredible speed and agility. Rose could barely even see her movements. Rose had managed to stop the blade with her grip but was sent flying against the wall losing her breath collapsing on to the floor. 

"Rose, are you ok!" Yucca shouted rushing towards the winded Rose.

"Move Yucca!" Rose said jumping into Rosa's blade which slashed both Rose and Yucca's sides and they collapsed on the floor. 

It's so quiet I can't feel anything, I can't see anything, where's Yucca...

"Yucca... where's Yucca..." Rose struggled to say.

"Rose... Rose!!!" Wake up, sweetie... Look at mommy please!!!" Rosa yelled panicking 

"Mom... Where's Yucca?"

Rose was losing too much blood but she mustered up enough strength to turn her head to see Yucca gripping her side and holding on to her hand.

"Yucca... Yucca!!! Don't leave me... Yucca!!!" Rose said screaming.

She pressed her hands on to Yucca's side trying to stop the bleeding, the both of them were losing to much blood. 

"Rose... are you ok?" Yucca could barely talk.

Rose smiled softly at Yucca then they both passed out, with Rose falling into Yucca's arms. 

Rosa began shouting for Majus and he rushed in picking up Rose and Orchid picking up Yucca and the rushed them to the hospital, Alcea went with them. SnapDragon stayed back with Rosa to comfort her. 

Weeks had passed since the incident with Rosa, she couldn't forgive herself, she stayed by Rose's side until she finally opened her eyes.
