"It's just a scratch, let's get back inside." He smiled picking her up and walking to the hotel so that he could clean his back off then go to the market with her.
Velna---
Velna dodged a punch, but flew back as his foot made impact. She grunted as the wind was knocked out of her. She jumped up tryin to catch her breath. She wasn't going to let him win.
Anger boiled up inside of Velna as her breath kept getting knocked otu of her. Ty walked over,
"You'll have to finish this match later, I need you to do something." He called to her. She stood up, glared at Alex, and slipped out of the ring. Ty put his arm around her and she smiled at him.
"What?"
"THere is a mission I think you will be able to pull off pretty quickly." He smiled,
"Really?"
"No, I just thought you would want to stop losing your breath." He replied as they left the practice area.
"Are you kidding!" Velna hissed pulling away. "I don't care if I lose or win, I don't give up."
"You didn't give up. A master told you to stop." He replied putting his arm around her again. She couldn't pull away and it angered her. Something about him made her worry.
Ryder---
When they got in the apartment he jumped in the shower letting the water run down his back. He winced in pain as water got on the cut.
He glared. He wanted to murder Ty. He knew his reputation. He had comforted many a girl who had fallen for him. They tended to come back with ruined virginities. Dali had even seen the same look of lust in his eyes that she had seen in the guys that came to her. But what could he do?! Velna wouldn't believe him. Not now. Alex sighed with frustration. It was so maddening. If he tried to save her, she would kill him and say he was just being selfish. If he didn't, she may get hurt.
He sighed again. She was so maddening! And yet, he loved her with his whole being.
He continued glaring at the retreating form of Ty as he put his arm around Velna.
If he does anything to her, I swear I'll kill him!
Dali:
I tried to keep from groaning. It was my own stupid fault. Why was I so helpless?! I was an assassin for crying out loud! Why was I getting in trouble?! And now look what I had done to Ryder! If only I could be like Velna!
Ryder climbed out of the shower and dried off. He pulled his pants on and walked into the living room.
"Mind wrapping my back up?" He asked Dali wrapping his arms around her and kissing hte top of her head.
**Kinda skipping a few days with her. We can bring Ryder and Dali up to speed when need be.**
Velna---
Two days later Velna had some how managed to refuse Ty's ever pursuing persistences of 'having a night of fun' with him. She worked in the small garden behind her's and Ryder's house trying to clear her mind. No matter how angry she got at Alex she couldn't stop loving him.
He is to much a part of you. She sighed to herself, But I won't be around him until he lossens up. She nodded firmly and continued working.
"Figured I'd find you here!" A deep voice laughed, she looked up and mentally groaned, why did Ty have to follow her everywhere.
"Did you need me?" She asked,
"There is a mission, there is someone I need you to deal with." He replied, she stood up and crossed her arms.
"Why me?" She asked,
"Your the only girl assassin the masters trust to be able to do this job right." He replied,
"Where?" She asked, he gave her her instructions and she went to the stables to get her horse.
Ryder followed her gaze and saw one of the Masters. "Why?" He asked pulling her closer.
*few hours late*
Velna---
Velna got to the town she needed to be wuickl.y She found the building she needed and walked to the desk.
"There is a man that is staying here. I need to talk to him. He is tall, black hair." She said,
"Up stairs, second floor, fifth door on the left." He replied, she nodded and headed towards the room. She pulled a knife out of her holder and picked the lock slowly slipping in. She slowly moved around the room stepping into the bed room. She looked around. No one was there. She moved back out and went to the kitchen. A hand was suddenly put over her mouth and she jammed the knife back. It was caught and she heard a laugh.
TY! her mind screamed. She tried to pull away but she couldn't. She felt a blind fold slip over her eyes and he tried to tie it with one hand with no succes. She jammed her leg back and he just kicked her legs out from under her. He knocked her out.
When she woke up her hands were tied above her head, a gag was in her mouth, a blind fold on her eyes, and her clothes were gone. She heard a door open and she pulled on the ropes. She heard him laugh and she wanted to cry. What had she gotten into. She could feel his hands on her and her eyes filled with tears.
She didn't know for how long he raped her, but it seemed like forever. When he finally cut her lose she threw her hands up poking his eyes. She jumped up and found her knife laying a few feet away and she quickly slit it throat.
"NO one rapes me." She hissed, she quickly dressed, found her horse, and raced to the brotherhood.
When she got back she went to one of the main masters.
"Something wrong?" He asked looking at her.
"Ty is dead." She said bitterly.
"How, who did it so we can be rid of them." He replied,
"I killed him, he raped me, so I killed him." She replied,
"Alright. Please keep this quiet." He replied,
"I plan on it." She said turning and walking away. Her body hurt and she wanted a bath. She wanted to cry too, but she new she couldn't.
I had explained everything, how he had tried to rape me and if it hadn't been for Alex I would've been raped right after I arrived. We had tried to find Alex to see what happened to Ty, but Ty had disappeared.
"At least he's gone." I said to Ryder, excited.
Alex:
He was worried sick. Velna and Ty had disappeared. He saw Velna coming back from the head master's office.
"Hey," he caught up with her. "Are you okay?" he asked concerned. "I was sick with worry that something might happen...I just...whatever you want is fine with me." he sighed. "I just want you to be happy."
Velna started to cry. Alex wrapped his arms around her. "Sh...it's okay. It's alright." He held her close and let her cry on his shoulder.
Velna couldn't hold it in anymore. She felt the tears start to fall and she felt him wrap his arms around her and she held him. She finally pulled away. She wiped her eyes, grabbed his arms and pulled him towards a more priviate place.
"What happened?" He asked looking at her. She ran a hand through her hair and turned to walk home, she didn't want to say anything else.
Ryder---
"Yes, now let's find Velna, and your brother. See if they made up yet." He smiled
"It's okay. He's scum anyways. You deserve so much better. I'm so sorry, love. I have no idea what he did, and I'm really sorry. You deserve better than me too." he sighed and hugged her close as she cried.
I swear if I ever get my hands on him, I'll kill him for hurting Velna! he thought.
Dali:
I smiled and walked beside Ryder. "I'm so excited about our wedding." I said.
