Tord's Red Army

Withered Violets (Part 3)

But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the lineI really fucked it up this timeDidn't I, my dear?Didn't I, my dear? - Mumford and Sons (Little Lion Man)

Tord paced back and forth in his office, maybe he did over-react to Violet's statement. Tom was right, he had seriously fucked up this time. He had to go and help his sister so he texted Tom to give him all of the information that they knew and then attempted to call Violet. He phone ran then went to voicemail, that was not a good sign or maybe it was just because she was pissed at him. Still, Tord couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his gut.

Tom and the others were walking round a busy city for Violet because that's where Yuki says she was. Tom felt guilty for outing Violet like he did but it was only way he could think of to trying to Tord to see sense. They had been searching for ages and now it was starting to feel as if they had been at it for hours, Violet had clearly left. The only place the hadn't looked was an run down old building. Violet surely wouldn't have gone in there, would she? Tom gathered the others before breaking into the building's rusty door. Inside was totally different from the outside, it was elegant and fancy, high ceilings, chandeliers, everything. Tord was gonna be in for a surprise when he finally shows up but right now they had to start searching this place for Violet without getting caught. Even though the door they broke in through was empty when they walked deeper in they could see many Angels flying around, the only people who fit in her was Dylan and Yuki and that was only because her white swan wings blended in well with all those Angel wings. Then they heard the faint sound of music.

Decisions as I go, to anywhere I flow
Sometimes I believe, at times I'm rational
I can fly high, I can go low
Today I got a million, tomorrow I don't know

Decisions as I go, to anywhere I flow
Sometimes I believe, at times I'm rational
I can fly high, I can go low
Today I got a million, tomorrow, I don't know

Stop claiming what you own, don't think about the show
We're all playing the same game, laying down alone
We're unknown and known, special and a clone
Hate will make you cautious, love will make you glow

Make me feel the warm, make me feel the cold
It's written in our story, it's written on the walls
This is our call, we rise and we fall
Dancin' in the moonlight, don't we have it all?

Decisions as I go, to anywhere I flow
Sometimes I believe, at times I'm rational
I can fly high, I can go low
Today I got a million, tomorrow, I don't know

Make me feel the warm, make me feel the cold
It's written in our story, it's written on the walls
This is our call, we rise and we fall
Dancin' in the moonlight, don't we have it all?

Violet was still singing in a trance like state, she felt... empty. It was weird, why did Clyde want her to sing? It wasn't to boost staff productiity like he said it was, so what was it? Clyde was smiling at her from the crowd and it wasn't the warm smiles her friends and family gave her. Once again she thought to herself. What am I doing? At this point though it felt like she had no control over her actions anymore. Everything hurt, physically and emotionally. The worst part of this was she couldn't break her deal wth him because if she did, he threatened to hurt her family and everyone she has ever loved. She had made a mistake trusting him, she realised that now.

Suddenly as if they had been listening to her thoughts, everyone excluding Tord burst into the auditorium. The Angels that were there all began to panic and flapped their wings in fear, they weren't used to seeing guns or mere mortal that wielded them either. Yuki and Dylan flew straight up to Violet trying to lift her up but she slipped from away from them and started attacking them. Violet didn't want to do it then she realised, black eye. 

Okay, So I know this one is shorter but I wanna build suspence for the next part and I am still waiting for someone's opinion on something. Once I have said person's opinion I will start writing the next chapter.
