•Frost | Ray • [the promised neverland fanfiction]

Chapter 29 |•| outwit the adults.

Emma's pov.

"Y-yeah.. those adults were definitely after those demons" gilda stated still unnerved by it .

Its already been a week of travel and we were already close to home... but i still couldn't stop thinking about it.

"Those are not demons." Zack stated as we all turned to him while we walk.

"What do you mean?" Violet asked .

"I saw her hands when she grabbed the arrows.. they're definitely human.." he said turning to us.

"I saw him.. his mask fell when he bumped into me" ray stated to which my eyes widened.

"Why didn't you guys tell us earlier!? They might be escapees that doesn't have a home or something?!" I said in a panic.

Those poor kids! The adults are even after them .. ugh this stupid idiots.

"They could endanger us if we took them with us and besides... them seem like they know their way around this system." Zack stated to which we stared at him with confusion.

"What do you guys mean?" Violet asked once again.

"They're inside a demon village using disguises violet... and that boy is abnormally fast while that girl seems super strong and alert.." gilda stated with the 'as-matter-a-fact' tone.

"Geez .. children from the grace field are really amazing.." violet stated as she sweat dropped.

Compare to the kids from goldy pond we didn't realize that we were actually amazing when it comes to learning..

"But .. im not the only one who n-noticed right?." Gilda said to which we all looked at her.".. that girl.. i-i dont know if im just missing her but.. she sounded so much like.." she said stopping as she glanced at ray who's face became gloomy instantly.

I knew I wasn't just imagining things.

"Like snow?.. yeah. I guess we missed her too much" don said scratching the back of his head as he smiled sadly.

"Yeah.. i missed her too.." i said sighing as i walked near ray patting his back as he shrugged my arm away looking annoyed.

"W-who's snow?.. i-if you dont mind me asking hehe" Violet asked unsure if it was a sensitive topic with ray's change of attitude.

He sometimes hates it when we compare her to people..

"She was ray's girlfriend~" don said poking ray's sides that resulted to him getting knocked on the head by ray.

"Owiiee~" don said rubbing his head.

"F-from gracefield?.. what happened to her?" She asked

"Shipped out.. she did it to let us escape more easily.." i answered looking down as the memories hit me again.

"Oh..im sorry.. she seemed so nice.. was she pretty?" She asked enthusiastically to lighten up the mood.

"Oh yeah! She was very nice and very pretty! I even had a crush on her" don stated with a big smile to which we all looked at him .

O___o*

He's really digging his own grave right know.

We all looked at ray as we felt this scary aura come out from him..

"D-don.. i think you should run now" gilda stated sweat dropping .

"Don.. you little-" we heard ray said before he ran to knock on don's head.

"AHHH!!? IM SORRY OK!?" Don said as we laughed while he ran away from ray.

"Did ray liked snow very much?" Violet asked with a sad smile on her face.. does she like ray?.. im sorry violet but it seems that you have no chance with this..

"He loved her so much.. he cried a lot before she left... and after she left." I said smiling sadly as i stared at the birds above us.

I wonder how you're doing up there snow?.. is it peaceful up there?

Snow's pov.

"HAYATO?! You almost had us killed!" I said as i hit his head to which he smiled sorrily at me holding up a peace sign.

Its already been a week and those adults are still following us around.. we opted to just stray around the village since they couldn't attack us freely with all the demons around.

Our only option is to capture them at midnight.. rip off all of their weapons.. and if there is any tracking device in them.. we'd remove it and bring them to the hide out.. that was what norman wanted me to do.

But there's no way im risking taking them to the big tree.. so i have other plans.

That's why we opted to wait for a week instead of doing it right away. But hayato here decided to run around bumping into a demon kid last week... those adults even decided to try and kill the kid since he was a witness .. seeing a cattle child disguising themselves as demons.

Good thing i came just in time . Sighh.

"What's exactas your plan frost?" He asked as we walked around the village.

"Id like them to think that i died.. that's why we'll lure them to the forest tonight.. ok?" I said to him to which he nodded.

We walked as i told him my plan... but to be able to pull it off he needs to know my real name.

"During this part of the plan.. dont scream frost ok? .. scream the name snow." I said to which he stared at me confusedly

"My real name is snow and this is the only time you'll ever call me that ok?" I said sternly to which he nodded .

"Good.. now. Lets go outwit those adults" i said as i smiled under the mask.
