Keeping the promise (BellxArtemis)

Chapter 15

Meanwhile.

"Syr do you mind taking this food up to our local layabout".

" Oh, there's no need to be like that mama hes recovering remember".

Syr quickly grabbed the plate of food of the side, and grab some water before heading upstairs.

"That girl is way too cheerful around that boy" crossing her arms she sighed at the empty hostesses.

"I hope things pick up soon".

It didn't take long for Syr to reach bells room. Making sure to place his food to one side she knocked.

"Bell, it's Syr are you awake, I've brought you some food."

She waited for his reply but none came.

'He must be asleep' she thought. 'I'd best put it inside in case he wakes up'.

She slowly opened the door making sure not to make a lot of noise. However, she was surprised when she felt a light breeze hit her face.

"That's strange I'm certain all the windows were closed perhaps Ryu opened it."

She put the food on the side of the dresser by the door. Before she was about to leave she found it awfully quiet.

"I didn't expect Bell to be such quite sleep..er." Her eyes quickly widened as she realised that his bed was empty.

"Why that little sneak he probably got sick of being in bed and head out into town". Syr sighed in defeat.

"why can't he just stay put for two minutes and here I was hoping to talk to him while it's quiet".

She turned to close the window and quickly made the bed. She knew he had his reasons but she also was quite aboard and it was fun to tease him.

" Ryu we've got a runaway!"

She quickly shouted at the top of her lungs and in a very distressed manner. 'Gotta keep up appearances'.

A few minutes later.

"I can't believe that little shit would sneak out under our noses. He could at least tell us".

Ryu was angry. No wrong word furious that Bell had done a runner. He was on deaths door moments ago and hes running around like nothing happened.

Chloe on of the resident cat workers popped her head out.

"Just let him have his fun his falut if he get injured. Besides he's bound to turn up at some point we'll just teach him a lesson when he vet back.

Ryu and Syr both looked at her with angry eyes.

"That's not the point Chloe if hes being targeted then it's not safe for him to be out wandering the streets."

The argument could have gone on for hours however Aiz soon made herself apparent.

"Right now we should be using this time to find him. Like Ryu said Bell was targeted once and they nearly succeeded why shouldn't they try again."

Ryu, Syr and even Mia nodded in agreement. However it was Mia that spoke up first.

"Fine Ryu you and Aiz head to the dungeon hes bound to have gone to train but in case he hasn't."

She turned to Syr.

"Keep an eye on the streets you now them better then most I'm sure hes still the talk of the city so keep an ear to the groud".

"I will good luck everyone".
