It'll Be Alright (Discontinued)

Chapter 5: Akashi vs Rose.

We troop out of the study and into his gym. There's one word to describe each room in his house - huge. Everything in the flipping house is gargantuan.

"Um... Rose-chan?" says Akashi, clicking his fingers.

"Yeah?"

"Are we gonna play or what?"

"Yeah. Let's play."

After a quick thought, we decide to use half the court. He looks (from my assessment on his fitness) like he'd crush me at basketball.

"First to... three baskets."

Right from the beginning, it's intense. I have the upper hand,  thanks to my Hawk Eye... for about five seconds. Akashi is awesome at basketball. I get possession of the ball, only to have it stolen in the same moment. He scores the first basket, without me even being aware of him moving. Fast, precise and strategic. He's every one of those things.

"... Are you?" growls something I would describe as a grizzly bear speaking.

"Hide behind the basket of equipment. GO!" hisses Akashi, propelling me to the basket.

"H-Huh? Who's that?"

"Don't worry, just go!"

"Fine, fine." I jog to the basket and hide behind it, ducking down for extra invisibility.

"H-Hey, Logan-sama." Logan-sama?! What even?

"You should be at school."

"I, uh, d-d-d-didn't en-enjoy it..." Since when did Akashi stutter?  Seriously.

"Like, S-R-S-L-Y," I mutter quietly.

"Whether you enjoy it or not doesn't matter. You're mine, so you have to obey me or your sister bites it." Whoever this Logan is, he sure is mean. Does Akashi really have a sister?

"S-s-s-sorry... Logan... sama." I hear a sniffle. Is he... crying?

"I guess I'll have to punish you." sighs this Logan character.

"P-p-p-p-please... don't... no... please n-no." Another sniffle. A sob. My heart wrenches like someone's thrust a sword deep into my heart, twisted it, pulled out an artery and strangled me with it. [A/N: I am so mean and imaginitive. I learnt it from my sister.] Footsteps shuffle up some stairs and I straighten up. What just happened? And how do we get into school if I can't even tell Akashi that we should go? Ugh, my head is aching.

"...Rose-san?" I look up to see a butler of some degree (he looks like a businessman).

"... Who are you?"

"That's not important. I have orders from Logan-sama to take you to him... dead or alive." [A/N: Where did that come from... I don't even... I didn't anticipate that...]

"E-eh? Why would you want to kill me?" I yell in shock, fear and anger.

"Don't resist~," smiles Business Butler, "If you resist, I'll be forced to kill you."

"... with what?" I didn't see weapons and this could buy me some time.

"This," He pulls out a knife. I stand up and follow him to Logan's room.
