Chapter Eight
"Stay still in there" the guard said as he slammed the cell door shut.
"Damnit! What the hell was I doing or thinking!? I should have known that I would not be able to defeat Xanxus, but yet, he was able to incapacitate me, TWICE." Aki thought as she banged a fist continuously at the wall.
Gradually, she stopped banging, as she knew that blaming anyone would not get Ganta back, nor will it let her leave this place. She turned to lean her back against the wall and started to plan her escape.
----------------------------------------------
Xanxus' Office
"What were you thinking!? You fired that damned gun at her twice!!" Ganta shouted at Xanxus, and grabbed his collar.
"Hey watch what you are doing." Levi said.
"Let him be." Xanxus replied.
"I told you not to hurt her, and yet you fired without thinking!"
"It's not like you care that much right? You need her gone in order to gain the Snow ring's power." Xanxus replied.
Ganta glared at Xanxus and pushed him aside.
"Our overall motive might be the same, but do not think that I am under your control completely. I dare you to hurt her one more time, and you will regret it. I'm going to get her out of that place." He said as he stormed out of the office.
-------------------------------------------------
Aki's thoughts kept drifting to the past when she and Ganta were in a happy family with both her parents alive. It all seemed so peaceful, so peaceful that she would not imagine that incident to happen--
Her thoughts were interrupted by and explosion nearby. She could hear the guards outside running and shouting towards the explosion. Wondering what was happening, she stood up and peered through the small window at the door.
Just then, the door swung open, making Aki squint because of the sudden exposure to light. Before she could open her eyes and see what was happening, she was lifted off the ground.
Thinking that it was another guard, she started flailing about wildly, accidentally smacking the person's face repeatedly.
"Hey hey hey relax!! It's me!" Ganta said while trying to shield his face with one hand.
"LET ME GO-- Huh? Ganta?" Aki replied, telling herself that she is hearing and seeing things.
"But, how? I thought you were kidnapped."
"I'm not so weak. I'll leave the explanations for later. Let's get out of this place first." Ganta replied.
"OVER THERE!" A guard motioned to the two as the smoke from the explosion cleared.
"Pass me my weapons. I will blast a way through." Aki replied, hand gesturing for the gun.
"That won't be needed." Ganta said as he turned and punched the wall. Aki realised that he was using his weapon, a gauntlet (but only the left hand side at the moment ._.) with a ignited rank B mist ring.
It was only just after that moment when Aki realised they were actually more than ten floors above ground level.
"Hey wait! This is one of the highest fl--"
Before she could finish, Ganta jumped.
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!!!!???"
