Inertia [Akashi Seijuurou X OC] [Kuroko no Basuke] (TERMINATED)

107: Moment of Realising You

'We can say that.' Akashi replied calmly as his eyes scanned the area.

'He left no blood trails so we can't find him, that's rather stupid.' I commented.

'I think he went that way.' The redhead pointed northeast from where we were standing.

'How do you know?'

'The bushes are a bit squashed compared to others. Let's not waste time and find him or it will create chaos if the others see this.' He said while marching towards the bushes. I followed in pursuit. We searched the area for quite a while until an idea came into my mind.

'Let's split up,' I spoke. 'Maybe that'd broaden our search area.'

He looked at me in disagreement.

'You're not looking down on me, right? Then let's separate and search for him.' I turned the other way without waiting for his reply and continued marching away from him. When I looked back, he was already minding his own business, which means he doesn't really care if I die.

I really don't get how people can navigate in a forest because the paths and trees look all the same to me and I'm not very diligent when it comes to navigation. Nevertheless, I used all my focus to search for Aidou. He could be anywhere in the area and it's a huge forest. However, as I was informed, there were yellow tapes placed around a certain radius to prevent students from wandering far off.

And then from the corner of my eyes, I noticed two figures walking the opposite direction. Their backs were on me so it was to my advantage. I followed closely but silently. The guy on the right was a little shorter than the one on the left and the taller guy was limping on his right leg.

'Do you think he would come back if we carry out the plan?' the right one asked.

The left guy shrugged. 'I don't know but I know I will have to bring him back no matter what. He's an important member of the family we can't afford to lose him; he's the only heir we have.'

After that, they didn't speak another word and I never stopped trailing behind them. We went for quite a while until one of them sighed.

'She really thinks we don't know.' The right one looked up at his friend. I froze.

'Since we made it this far, we should let her know who's fooling who.' The other replied and as if on cue, both of them spun and our eyes met.

I stopped breathing; panic already flowing through my veins. Gulping, I took a step back.

The left guy shook his head. 'Nope, we're not letting you go.' He smiled.

I turned to run but the guy was faster. He was already jumping and grabbing my leg, preventing me from moving. 'I forgot my way back to the base camp!' I yelled. 'I thought you guys are the school's bodyguard!!!!' It was my very desperate foolish attempt to escape. I knew they wouldn't buy it but it was worth a try.

'The base camp is this way, miss, why are you trying to run away?' the one who was holding my leg played along.

'Well suddenly I think I need to pee!' I was still kicking and struggling but his grip was strong.

'The bathroom is also this way.' He chuckled.

'That one is full! I need another bathroom!' I screamed.

'We can clear the others for you to use it.'

Then suddenly he gathered all his strength and pulled my leg. I could feel my arm bruising but when he grabbed me by the neck instead, I forgot about all pain and only thought of dying.
