Black World (Aarmau AU)

5

I had a plan. I knew I could change into my wolf form, but there were cameras and the guards would report it if they saw me practicing.

I've never switched into my form, but I was hoping at this moment I had.

"Hey! Stop sitting! Stand up, Ultima," growled the guard watching me.

I sighed and stood up, immediately falling over.

The guard inhaled quickly, "Shit!", and ran over, opening the cell.

I smirked, and stood up, punching him and knocking him out,

I'm coming back.

-

We tried to hide that Aphmau was missing, because so far everyone was enjoying themselves, but they found out.

They probably noticed that her presence wasn't around, being that she was their Alpha.

I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair, sitting on a log, tired from cutting firewood. My shirt was off, and I noticed some other werewolves staring, but I didn't care.

I sat thinking, Jack, the guy who stood at the gate didn't know I was wanted. If I could sneak past the gate, and into the building, I would be able to sneak through the security, at least if they hadn't changed the codes on their keypads.

I took a deep breath, looked around, and left.

I wasn't planning on coming back without Aphmau.

-

As I ran out the cell, the air immediately felt better to breathe, nearly making me smile.

Before I opened any door, I checked to see if anyone was there by listening and popping my head out to look.

But as I popped my head out of one of the doors, my eyes widened, but not because I was scared, because I was glad to see a familiar face. I smiled as Aaron ran up and hugged me tight.

"Ah!" I said, smiling, nuzzling my head into his shoulder.

He hugged me tighter, but I pulled away quickly.

Holding onto his shoulders, I looked him in the eyes and told him, "We have to get out of here," and he just nodded and turned around.

-

As we were walking down the halls, we heard footsteps around the corner behind us.

I hid Aphmau behind me and she dragged me into a random room, as we both leaned on the wall.

The door opened and the green-eyed man stood there, looking at me and getting angrier by the second.

Aaron punched him in the face, and soon the two were fist fighting. I looked around for something to help Aaron stop getting beaten up.

I noticed an empty wine bottle sitting on the counter next to where I sat on the floor. I slowly reached for it, but not so slowly throwing it at the side of his head.

He turned to face me, and Aaron jabbed him, knocking him out.

He stood there, looking around the room, taking heavy breaths, and eventually looking at me. He held his arm out, waiting for me to take it. I took it, standing up, and turning to face him.

He looked at me for a second, turned his head side to side, and looked at me hesitation in his eyes.

"What is it, Aaron?" I said looking him in the eyes.

His eyes were still not looking in mine, deep in thought.

"Hey, you can tell me," I held his hand.

A few seconds later, something I wasn't expecting happened abruptly. He, very quickly, wrapped his arms around my waist, kissing me on the lips. I didn't kiss him back, because I was surprised, after all it was so sudden.

I think he noticed this, because he pulled away,

"I-I'm sorry..."

I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling in to kiss him again. I stopped after a few seconds, because we needed to leave soon.

"We have to go," I said looking him in the eyes, my arms still wrapped around his neck. He nodded, and we left the room, leaving the green-eyed man on the floor, unconscious.

-

When I walked back out of my tent, I didn't see Aaron sitting there. I didn't bother asking around, I knew he had a plan and left for Alpha. I took a deep breath and sat down at the fire he made.

A few children were playing, running around playing tag, and other games. I sighed, wrapping my arms around my neck, brushing my dark purple hair.

"Aaron left?" asked Blaze, looking like he just woke up from a nap.

I nodded and we sat there in silence, deep in thought.

-

We stepped outside the building, seeing a different guard at the gate, and Aaron and I ran off to the side of the building.

"Can you climb?" he asked me.

"Yeah, why?" asked looking at him.

"We may or may not have to climb that fence over there," he said pointing at a fence that was at least 10 feet tall.

"What?!"

He just nodded taking a deep breath, "Are you ready?" he said.

I nodded looking him in the eyes as we both sprinted down towards the fence, beginning to scale it, but Aaron was going much faster than me.

"Aph! You need to speed up, they're coming!" he yelled, after stopping.

I looked behind me, seeing the doors to the building open, and panicking, nearly falling off the fence.

"Aphmau, don't panic, just keep climbing, step by step, okay?"

I started moving again. Nearly at the top, Aphmau, don't be scared, Aaron is at the bottom, he'll catch you. Just keep moving.

I reached the top, trying to carefully flip onto the other side, shaking severely.

"Aph, jump, now!"

I jumped off, after seeing the guards running over to us.

I landed in Aaron's arms, but landed on my foot, and heard a crack immediately after. Groaning in pain, Aaron ran, in the wrong direction, I think to throw them off, and it worked. We lost them after about 10 minutes.

-

When we showed back up at the camp, everyone stared at me, looking like a mess (probably), and holding Aphmau.

Dottie ran up, taking Aphmau from my hands, trying to get her to walk.

I sat down, realizing how tired I really was, and my vision started getting blurry. I got myself up, and walking into one of the tents I built and falling asleep in a few seconds.
