“Come A, I’ll get you and end this suspense-adrenaline-rush that you are brewing me with!” I mumbled under my breath.
I heard rustling from outside the closet, inside Emma’s bedroom. I gulped involuntarily. A has come, indeed!
I’m ready, bring it on! I screamed inside my head, but outside I’m shaking like crazy.
I heard muffled voices…oh my God! A must really be conspiring with his/her A team! Tch, the A team. I mean, I love to hate them. They remind me of a song by Ed Sheeran…that guy’s amazing.
Crap, I’m getting side-tracked again.
The closet started shaking. Oh…no.
An earthquake! I’m stuck inside a closet and a natural phenomenon has occurred! I might be trapped inside this casket like thing forever! Double crap!
I tried desperately to hold onto the closet walls and prayed that the ceiling won’t fall down on me. I shut my eyes and literally saw my life flash before me…God, I regret not telling Eriu that his hair looks so weird!
“Etain?” I heard Eriu’s voice and I instantly saw Eriu standing in front of me, holding the closet’s door with a confused look on his face. “What are you doing inside the closet?”
I gaped at him and saw Bryce materialized from the bathroom. I slowly got out of the closet and tried to look indifferent but failed.
“Okay you got me.” I mumbled. “I was playing hide and seek by myself and forgot to tell myself that I already hid. Silly me.” I added almost cheerily.
Bryce glared at me while Eriu shook his head at me.
“You’re not buying it, aren’t you?” I asked rhetorically. They didn’t. Okay, I don’t care anymore.
Next time, I’ll try the extraterrestrial reference tactic. I’m sure that’ll work.
“What happened to Emma?” Eriu asked instead.
I crossed my arms over my chest. “In case you are not listening, I told you that A has got her. He/she has gotten sneakier over the new season and I don’t even know what he/she’s playing at right now.”
“I don’t understand.” Eriu said, confused. Well, that’s a first. Eriu not understanding me is as impossible as Sage dancing samba with Bryce.
“Of course you don’t.” I answered wryly.
“The air here smells filthy.” Bryce commented while watching the wall warily.
“That sounds creepy, Bryce. Really. Sniffing the air is like a stalker-ish kind of way to say that--.” I started blabbering but they are not paying attention.
“What do you mean?” Eriu asked walking towards where Bryce is kneeling beside the bed.
“Here.” Bryce gave Eriu something like a black fabric.
“What’s that?” I asked. “I suggest that you don’t pick up anything weird inside this room. Emma gets upset when I accidentally picked up a weird looking scarf from the floor.”
“How did it get here?” Eriu asked, eyeing the fabric under his spectacles.
“I think it got stuck on the protruding nail on the floor.” Bryce speculated. “We’re lucky.”
“Why?” I asked almost immediately. Bryce stared at me as if I was stupid.
“That thing right there makes it easier to track Emma.” He explained, pointing at the fabric. Eriu gave the fabric back to Bryce. “I’ll have my men track the remaining scent.” He said and disappeared almost immediately.
“What’s happening?” I asked warily, feeling an unpleasant feeling in the pit of my stomach. Something bad has happened…
Eriu sighed and rubbed his forehead furiously. “You’re an idiot, Etain.” He mumbled.
I gasped. “Even you, Etain, are saying that? Of all people, you should know better than to accuse me of being something that I am not. You’re hurting my feelings.” I told him harshly.
Eriu glared at me. “I don’t care about your feelings right now, Etain. They’re your feelings; I don’t have the leisure of making you feel good every time.” He grumbled.
Uh-oh. Eriu is upset.
“Please don’t be mad at me.” I asked of him. We’re best friends!
Eriu blinked slowly and sighed again. “I’m not mad at you. It’s just that, you messed up again.”
Again? What did I do?
“Is this about the pizza incident?”
“No.”
“Okay…”
“You let Emma get kidnapped again.” Eriu said. “And for sure, you’ll get in trouble with Master Raven if he finds out.”
I gulped. I may be in trouble!
