You Really Think You Could Beat Me in a Fight?
*Crash Fire's POV*
Tears threatened to poor from my eyes as I watched the bright red dot of Par- Poisons hair get smaller and smaller. I turned to walk back into the building. Just as I was about to walk through the doorway I swear I could see him watching me. Don't be stupid Crash, he walked away just because of a couple kids. He wouldn't look back. The older of the two sisters held to the younger one tighter as I walked closer. I sat down on the floor in front of them but still keeping the door in my line of sight. Fun Ghoul taught me that. I looked at the older sibling, she couldn't be older than 5. I put on my best smile despite what just happened between Poison and I.
"How old are you?" I ask, assuming she can speak.
"5." she answers quickly.
"Ok... How old is your sister?" I cross my legs and patiently wait for a response.
"2." So she's not much of a talker, I get it.
"Is she ok?" I ask, if not I should get her back to Jet as soon as possible. I didn't even get a response this time, she just shook her head quickly. "Are you parents still around?" I know its a hard question but its important. I can't just take these kids if their parents are still out there. She pointed to a crumbling, but still standing, stone stair case. I slowly get up and walk over to it. With my hand on my gun and my mask still down I start to walk up the stairs. All the walls have fallen, the only things left standing are the old and cracking support beams holding up what was left of the roof. Before my brain registers what it sees I breath in through my nose and am hit with the strong scent of blood. Fresh blood. The remains of what I'm guessing were their parents was crushed below a slab stone rooftop. I turn and run back down the stairs, hearing a few cracks and the sounds of small rocks falling. I push out of the doorway and stumble around to the side of the building and throw up. By the time I'm done puking up everything I've eaten in the past two days the older sibling I should really learn her name is standing in the door frame with the other one still wrapped in her arms. "I'm sorry you had to see that." She was not staring at me, but something behind me. I put my hand on my gun and turn on my heals taking it out of the holster all at the same time. I had my finger on the trigger and was ready to shoot when the gun was kicked out of my hand and thrown across the road. I threw a punch straight for my attackers face when my fist was caught mid air.
"Tisk tisk Crash. You really think you could beat me in a fight?"
"Why are you here, Kobra?" My words sounding harsher than I intended.
"Really feeling the love." he chuckled, he was still holding my fist in the air even though I had let my arm relax and go limp. "Who are these two cuties?" He says as he looked over my shoulder at the girls.
I looked back at them too, waiting for a response. "I'm Eliz- no no wait, I'm Cherry Blossom. This is my sister... Pink Pup." A half smile appeared on my face. Something tells me she chose her sisters name right then and there. It was cute though.
"Well Cherry," Kobra released my hand after realizing he still had a firm grip on it. "I'm Kobra Kid and this is Crash Fire. Do you girls mind if we talk for a minute in private?"
"Are you gonna leave like the last one?" Cherry asked. I got that feeling like I was going cry again. But I didn't.
"No, I would never leave." Oh god. Tears lined the bottom of my eyes.
"Do you have anything you might want to pack and take with you?" Cherry nodded at that and carried her sister back inside. I managed to sneak a peak at Pup and she really didn't look good. I turned back around to talk to Kobra and before I knew what was happening his lips were on mine, his hands cupping my face. And to be honest, I was enjoying it.
