Angel gasps and looks behind him. There it was, an enemy. Angel curses and grabs Elendil's wrist, starting to run.
???: "HEY! COME BACK HERE!"
The creature-like human starts running toward them. The person then grabs a gun and shoots at Elendil's leg, making him fall.
Elendil groans. Angel sighs and shoots one of his powers above them, making the linear light fall on top of the person. The person groans; some others heard it and thought the victim escaped.
Angel helps Elendil hide behind one of the tall shelves with boxes. Angel peeked through the shelf and saw the others start searching for them... They were screwed.
Angel: sighs "This is bad..." Looks at the wound.
Elendil: sniffles "I'm sorry, Angel. This is all my fault... I led you here. I shouldn't have been so stupid earlier to go out... I never expected this would happen."
Angel: "Ugh." Holds his shoulders tightly. "Can you stop apologizing? It's not your fault, okay? It's no one's fault, so stop apologizing! Plus, you didn't even expect this to happen either! And it's normal... You have m—"
They then start hearing sirens in the distance.
Elendil: eyes widen "Huh? The cops.. They came here to save us.. Haaa.. Thank God.."
Angel: "...Uhh.. Hmmm." nods
They hear the others telling each other to hide or run from the cops before they get caught. Angel sighs in relief and stares at Elendil, helping him get up.
Angel: "Let's waste no time. Let's get out of here before they see us."
Elendil: ...nods
Angel starts sneaking while keeping an eye on the enemies. Suddenly, they hear the front door opening loudly. It was the cops pointing their guns, saying: "STOP RIGHT THERE! ARF…"
Elendil: eyes widen "The cops!"
Elendil then starts sprinting toward them.
Neptur: "Wait! Don't shoot... Elendil!" Sprints toward him and hugs him tightly. "Thank God you're alive. Your leg... And where's Angel?"
Elendil: "Angel?" Turns around. "H-he was with me a while ago."
Neptur: "Let's go out first! You have an injured leg. Come on."
Elendil nods as Neptur helps him walk.
Elendil's thoughts: sighs and turns around "I hope Angel is okay..."
-------------------------------
((Angel's POV))
Angel followed the enemies into their secret area in one of the empty corners. Angel stood in front of them bravely.
????: "Huh? Oh... Look who's here." smirks "Are you here to—"
Angel: "You'll pay for what you've done." glares and starts pointing his magic at them
????: "Uhhhhhh..."
----------------------------------
Neptur: "Are you okay now?"
Elendil: "Yeah... But how about Angel? He's been gone for quite a while now... He must be lost!"
Neptur: "Don't worry, they'll find him somehow..."
Police Dog: "ARF!"
The police dog was dragging Angel on his shoulder.
Angel: "Eughhh..."
Neptur: "Huh? ANGEL!" Rushes toward him. "Where have you been?! Are you hurt?" Grabs his wrist
Angel: "Eughh.. Don't touch me.. And for your question, I'm fine..."
Neptur: "Fine? Look at you! You're so dirty!"
Angel blushes and avoids eye contact. He groans.
Angel: "Whatever, I wanna go home and rest."
Neptur: "Elendil is at the ambulance, sitting. You should probably check him out, but he's fine. I'll go talk to the cops first."
Angel: "Uhm.. Sure." Walks toward the ambulance to see Elendil sitting, covered in a blanket, while his leg was wrapped with bandages.
Elendil: sighs and looks at Angel, his eyes brighten in relief "ANGEL!!" Tries to stand up but Angel grabs his shoulder and pushes him down.
Angel: "Don't stand, you're still injured." sits next to him, sighs
Elendil: "...I-I thought you were gone.. I..." hic
Angel: rolls his eyes "Oh come on, don't cry now..." sighs "Hey, look at the warehouse for a second..."
Elendil: "Huh? Why..." glances at the warehouse
Angel: "Just stare at it.. Something's going to happen soon in 5 seconds."
5... 4... 3...
Elendil: "Like what?"
Angel: "Something bright."
2...
Elendil: "Uhmm.. Oka—"
1...
BOOM!!
An explosion suddenly blew up the warehouse. Everyone was shocked and started to panic. Even Elendil was surprised.
Elendil: "What the... H-how did you know?"
Angel: "There was a bomb inside, hiding in one of the boxes. There were loads of them. They probably planned on exploding you. They also prepared a hiding spot before the bomb exploded. Luckily, I got you out on time."
Elendil: "Wow... But... How about the people inside?"
Angel: "Don't worry about them... I got it under control."
Elendil: "How so?"
Angel: stares at him "It's a secret." Looks away and glances at the fire in the warehouse.
Fire sirens start being heard from the distance. Looks like the firefighters are here to fix the burning issue.
Neptur: walks toward them "Uhhh... There's too much going on... An explosion unexpectedly happened..."
Elendil sighs and looks at the firefighters doing their jobs.
----------------------------------
((LOCATION: BACK AT THE HOUSE))
Elendil was watching the news; it was about the incident that happened. Neptur walked into the room and sat down on his own chair.
Neptur: "Haaaa... Home sweet home. Elendil, are you okay now? Does your leg still hurt?"
Elendil: "My leg? OH! No.. Uhh, my leg is okay now, it just needs more time to heal. But I'm okay now." smiles
Neptur: smiles back "That's good to hear."
Angel came back with some freshly cooked noodles. He placed the wooden tray down.
Elendil: "Wow! Noodles... Yummy!" grabs a bowl and chopsticks
Angel: "Careful. It's still hot—"
Elendil: "HA! Ow... My tongue. You were late when you said that..."
Angel: "Eughhhh..."
Neptur: laughs "Hahaha... Uh oh, we're not only going to deal with a broken leg, but now we have to deal with two injuries. Hay..."
Angel: "You should have been more careful." blows on the noodles
Elendil: "Sorry."
Neptur: chuckles, then suddenly remembers something. "Oh! I remember to ask you two. It's Sylwenna's wedding tomorrow."
Elendil: eyes widen "Really!? Tomorrow? You should have told us sooner!"
Neptur: "Sorry, the old pal here is busy catching some fishes, yeah?"
Angel: ... "Hmm." eats
Elendil: "Well... I better wake up early! I can't wait to see the wedding! I can also get a chance to see her soon-to-be husband."
Neptur: "Heh... Yeah. That's why y'all have to be early, hm?"
Elendil: nods "Can't wait!"
Neptur smiles, and the three continue to eat and chat while watching the news.
