Ivan: He's here.
I stiffened in my chair.
He couldn't mean...?
Ludwig stood up from his chair, scowling.
Ludwig: That Hunter.
My breath caught in my throat, feeling a moment of relief.
However, the moment soon ended.
Ivan: Wait.
Ivan held out his hand to Ludwig who stood, preparing to go outside.
Ivan: Let _ and I handle this.
His eyebrows raised in surprise but he complied.
Ivan and I locked eyes, nodding.
With that we headed outside, Hunter unfolding his arms as we approached.
Hunter: I was worried you'd never show.
He looked Ivan over, grimacing.
Ivan held his gaze, smile sinister.
Hunter: Your father grows impatient, _.
Hunter: How long do you plan on keeping him waiting?
He held out his hand, inviting me to grasp it.
Hunter: Come, your life awaits.
I took a step forward.
I took a few more steps closer, hands clenched into fists by my sides.
Reader: I don't know if I'm their chosen one, if I have any powers at all...
Reader: But even so, I want to see this through to the end!
Hunter:Tsk.
Hunter: I expected you to be smarter than this, _.
Hunter: Your father's graciousness will only last so long.
Reader: Tell him what I said. I don't need him to understand or accept my decision. But it's still my decision to make.
The man was silent for a moment before slightly bowing their head.
Hunter: Very well.
With a turn of his waist, his cloak flew around him. A moment later and he was gone.
Reader: Ahh...
I let out a shaky sigh.
Ivan: _!
He reached out to me, helping me stand.
Ivan: Are you all right?
My legs were weak but I never felt better, never felt stronger.
Reader: Yeah, thanks.
I smiled up at him, thankful to have him by my side.
