[Re-Upload] Luminescence

Part 14

Both would be wearing their birthday suits, flinging one another through the roof and into the walls. Elizabeth was horrified at first, but would soon gain a small grin as she watched the two laugh and have fun. By the time the two siblings were done, they were draped in blankets and were tired out from attacking one another.

Elizabeth then went on her way to work, passing by a lonely flower surrounded by some weeds. And just like every other day she went to work, she arrived at the L.O.G.I. with several minutes to spare. And just like any other day at work, Elizabeth would go up to her office. But today would be different, for normally she would just stay in her office all day, but this time she would be lead to a different location in the organization.

A small note was taped to her door, telling Elizabeth to head down to the fitness center to help train some new recruits. Elizabeth got all giddy inside, now wanting to scare any of the people. First impressions are always important, so Elizabeth arrived at the center with a smile. Everyone would feel at ease, kindly awaiting the instruction of their future boss.

Just as Elizabeth had said to the brothers, she would be out of the building in no time. Awaiting Elizabeth would once again be Garrett. Elizabeth would do her best to avoid him, but he would grab Elizabeth my the wrists and pin her to a nearby tree. "Hello again, pretty lady. Long time no fight." Elizabeth struggled against Garrett, his breath once again smelling like alcohol.

Garrett pressed her even tighter to the tree, holding her wrists even more tightly. "Where do you think you're going? On a date with the pipsqueak?" Elizabeth would keep her cool, not wanting to go crazy like the previous night. Garrett would once again ask Elizabeth questions. "Why won't you date me? Why are you so cold-hearted? Why do you favor those kids over someone your own age? Why won't you answer me? Why do you keep struggling? I thought you liked a challenge."

Elizabeth would step on Garrett's bad foot, making him howl in pain. He would somewhat release Elizabeth, giving her an opportunity to break free. Alas though, Garrett would grab Elizabeth from behind and lift her into the air. She would have tears in her eyes, some old memories coming back to her. Garrett still held onto her tightly, beginning to limp off to the forest. Elizabeth would begin to cry and scream for help. "Let go of me!! Help!! Someone! Anyone!!"

Luckily for Elizabeth, Maia would be leaving for home once again. She would see Elizabeth with Garrett, pulling out her gun once more. She would aim for Garrett's left calf, shooting and hitting her target. Garrett would drop Elizabeth, the girl backing away from him. Garrett would be on the ground, screaming as he gripped his leg.

Maia would loom over Garrett, keeping her gun pointed at him as she began to kick his stomach and face. Elizabeth watched from afar, tears blurring her vision. She would clear her throat, "Thank you so much once again, Maia!! I'll repay you back some day!!" Maia would give Elizabeth a thumbs up, "It's no problem! He tried to get into my pants as well! Doing this is totally worth it!!"

Elizabeth ran for home, leaving Maia to handle Garrett. Elizabeth was still in tears when she arrived home, closing the door behind her. She would fall to her knees in the doorway, sobbing into her hands. Sayeko and Kyoski would hear the sobbing girl, rushing out of their room to see what went wrong during the day. Both brothers would sit in front of her, placing comforting hands on her shoulders. Still, Elizabeth cried and cried until she felt better. At one point during this time, she even embraced the two, crying into both of their shoulders.

"I-I'm terribly sorry for d-doing that... I-It's just, Garret t-tried to take m-me away.... I-I couldn't do a-anything about it..!!" She would begin to reach a point where all she was doing was sobbing hot tears. She then sniffled, wiping her eyes and her nose with her sleeves. "Ugh. I'm such a mess. I just don't know what to do anymore." Sayeko and Kyoski hugged Elizabeth once more, hearing her mumble "This is exactly like the time in the tunnels..."

Both brothers would pull away, giving Elizabeth a confused and concern look. She would sniffle once more, "I guess you want me to tell you, huh?" Kyoski would look into Elizabeth's eyes, "Not unless you want to. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to tell us anything. We'll understand." Sayeko would then nod to his brother's statement, looking into Elizabeth's eyes as well.

Elizabeth sat up a bit more, clearing her throat. "W-Well, back when I first joined the L.O.G.I., In was a real hard worker. Like, I wouldn't stop working for anything in the world. There were positions in the upper ranks I wanted to be part of, so I studied real hard for it. Well, during this time, I met a boy named Andrew. He was like a girl's dream and he met all my standards at the time. So, one day while I was binge studying for the upcoming test to get into those ranks, Andrew would stop by my place and invite me to join him and his team in the mountains. Well of course I agreed to join him."

Elizabeth's voice would then grow grim, "Things didn't stay happy for much longer, for one thing led to another and I was soon hanging from some rocks. Andrew would have released a pit trap and I would have been the only one affected by it. Of course he came and tried to rescue me, but his eyes were filled with so much greed for what was down in those tunnels. He soon made me drop several feet down into the chasm below, I breaking several bines in my body." Both Sayeko and Kyoski would have grim looks on their faces, a little scared for what Elizabeth's tale may say next.

Elizabeth then got a little angry, "I was stuck down in the dark for three days. And while down there, I swore not to love another man ever again to protect myself from getting hurt." Kyoski then took Elizabeth's clenched fists into his own, "Elizabeth, do you think you could try love for us?" Looking up at the two of them seemed to warm some part of her heart, a small smile coming to her face. "Seeing how you won't stop asking me, I'll do it. I'll try and love someone for you guys." Both Sayeko and Kyoski were glad for Elizabeth, hugging her very tightly.
