*A few days later*
Nala's POV
I got up and stretched, before walking out to the wall off area, we called a kitchen and a saw a note stuck to the fridge door. It read:
I've gone out for a parkour around Bristol, I'll be back before its dark.
~Ash
I read the note before throwing it into the trash and grabbing an apple and walking back to my room. Once I got to my room, I went to my medium sized desk and picked up my new crafted Phantom Blade(A/N description in authors note at end) and put it on, I then shoved all the bits of scrap into my desk draw to make it somewhat tidy and not at all like I had spent the last couple of days crafting stuff... After that I turned around and grabbed my black, sleeveless hoodie from my cupboard, put the hood up and walked outside, I was about to go to yogtowers for a bit but was nearly pushed over by Ash running towards me.
"Hello to you to. what you doing back so early?" I asked
"Well, I went to yogtowers and saw a couple of people on the roof, so naturally I tried to make some friends and went over to them. Now they are chasing after me and maybe a bit angry." she replied very quickly. I faceplamed and sighed. Suddenly, I heard the sound of an arrow coming towards us.
"Duck." I said pulling Ash down, just in time to miss the arrow that hit the wall where her head was. "Now who do we know that has good sniper skills?" I asked Ash, who shrugged. I stayed crouched as I quietly made my way back to my room, gesturing for Ash to follow. My room had 1 window that only Ash could fit through and a door, so it was easy to defend. I made a gesture to Ash, saying to hide and be quiet, while I went to flatten myself against the wall next to the door so I could close it when the person walked in.
"Hmm...She must be here somewhere!" I heard a voice in the next room.
"You probably scared her away with your arrow!" a man with an American-accent replied. "Lets search the place, starting with here and keep your bow out." the voice said again and slowly the door opened, in fact it nearly hit me but I didn't make a noise, I waited for both men to be inside the room before closing the door and locking it, catching their attention.
"Well, hello boys. What may I help you with today?" I asked taking my hood down.
"Well...umm...We are looking for a short girl, who run in the base, I suppose it's called." The first man said, holding his bow ready.
"I wouldn't of called her small if I was you..." I said, smirking. The other man was about to say why when Ash suddenly leapt out from her hiding place and started shouting some strange words that made no sense. She pounced at the man and was about to slit his throat when I dragged her of and sat her on my bed before asking.
"I will ask once more, who are you and what do you want?"
"Will you set that girl on us if we don't?" the guy with the bow asked, scared
"Hmm...i doubt it, I'll probably do it rather then her. She can go a bit to far sometimes." I replied, smirking
"Ok, well my name is Steven, but my friends call me Ridgedog and this is Bebopvox but we call him Bebop for short." The man with an American accent said.
"Yeah and we would like to know why that girl was at our office block." Bebop said pointing at Ash, who growled in response.
"She wanted to make some new friends, like I said she can get carried away. Lets just forget about it and move on." I suggested, but men shook their heads. I sighed.
"No, we would like to speak to your parents." Ridgedog said, " We wanna know why you two are here and not at home." I laughed and replied,
"Well, good luck with talking to our parents, cause mine kicked me out a few years ago and Ash's kicked her out Christmas day. We live here now."
"Oh..." replied Ridgedog, "Well we'll just be going then, bye." But before Ridge could get any further, Bebop had pulled him aside and started whispering to him and occasionally pointing to us. After s few minutes they turned around and Bebop asked if we wanted to go with them and meet their friends and stay their for tonight. I looked at Ash, who had calmed down a lot since when the men first walked in, and nodded, before ushering the men outside, so me and Ash could get a bag ready with our clothes and electronics. I pulled my hood back up and walked out to the men, who were waiting outside on the edge of the building, talking calmly to Ash.
"Ready?" Bebop asked, me and Ash nodded and he smiled. "Alright then, now I think it would be safer to go along the street to our work place." I shook my head and said, "Nah, it'll be quicker along the roof tops and it'll be much more fun but we can always meet you at yogtowers if you wanted." I said and they nodded before climbing down the ladder to the streets while me and Ash jumped from building to building.A/N hey guys! sorry for lack of update but I've just been so busy!
