The Mating Games Cherryle's Story

Chapter 5

Cherryle's POV:
I quickly cracked the eggs and tossed them in the frying pan to cook. At the same time I put bread in the toaster. When break fast was ready I set it down on the table with a: "Bon-apatite".

(Time skip to after breakfast brought to you by my laziness)

We sat down on Annebell's couch and I started to explain my plan to Annebell.
When I finished she asked why we were still standing there, to which I replied with a
"Because I had to tell you the plan." I said in a 'duh' voice.
"Ok, well shouldn't we leave now?"
She said in an annoyed tone.
I didn't say anything, I just stood up and motioned for the two of them to follow.
"Can't I stay here, and watch tv?" Maddie said in a whiny voice.
"FINE." I said earning a victory dance from Maddie, we all chuckled.

The two of us then headed down to the city in search of items:
1. Two cans of really strong and nasty perfume bottles.
2. Two masks
3. Two pairs of each athletic wear and throw on t-shirts and track pants.

We slowly checked off the items and before we knew it, it was dark and time to head back.
The night was dark and I could see the beautiful dazzling stars next to the crescent moon. The only light on the street was the occasional street light, the mist was shimmering in the light. It was silent... a little too silent.
We took off into a sprint as our instincts kicked in, but it was too late.

We were surrounded within a second and these guys didn't seem very friendly.
"Don't worry girly's we don't bite... much".
One of them said in a deep ragged voice, I looked them up and down. Not much of a problem for me but that lustful gleam in his eyes was freaking me out. Probably bringing some déjà vu to Annebell, which is even worse.

I quickly scanned for weapons, only one is armed. Obviously this is their 'leader', so I went to attack him first. I walked over to him without hesitation and clapped in his face, loud startling him so he'd fall back. As he fell I grabbed his dagger and kicked him in the nuts.
I spun around without losing my step, so fast you'd think I'd get whiplash.

I took em all down simultaneously and continued walking like nothing happened.
All this and I never put my bags down.
"Damn that was fast, I mean I know you've been training to live through the mating games your whole life but... damn. I can't even say 'oh, no' I'm that time." She sounded honest so I thanked her and pulled her along.

The other two days went by so fast and now I'm saying goodbye to Maddie for possibly the last time.
"I'll miss you so much" I said as tears started to trickle down my cheeks.
My sister tried to say something but couldn't manage through her sobs as we hugged tight.
I said a final "I love you", as I stepped into the car with my luggage. I shut the door behind me and that was it... mating games here I come.
