Shiki laughed nervously."I uh...im gonna go get the doctor to let him know your awake Abby",he said rushing from the wound.
|
"What was that about?" Elliot asked.
Xing took a few moments to recover from laughing. "Shiki...Shiki's got a crush on you." He laughed. Elliot blinked. "Okay...." She said. "And he's too chicken to say anything." She smirked evilly. "Oh, this is gonna be fuuuun...." |
Abby laughed."hes never crushed on anyone before, so take it easy on him,but still have fun",she said laughing.
|
"Oh, I will...." Elliot said with an evil grin.
|
Abby laughed then cringed."ow ow ow",she muttered an sighed.
|
"Something wrong?" Elliot asked in concern.
|
Abby looked to her."pain killers wore of"
|
"Ah, that sucks." Elliot said.
"I know what that's like..." Xing said, remembering how he'd lost to Faust. He shook his head to dispell the awful memory. |
Abby looked to Xing sadly. Still feeling guilty about him getting hurt.
|
"You guys must be trouble zzzzzzs or something." Elliot said.
|
Abby blinked looking to her."what?"
|
"I was just saying that you guys seem to attract trouble like crazy." Elliot replied.
|
Abby looked down."why do you think I tried to keep away from all of you..."
|
"Abby, I think we'd attract trouble anyway." Xing said, placing his hand on her arm. "Trust me, I do...."
|
Abby looked to Xing ,and gave a small smile."how so?"
|
Xing smiled grimly. "You really wanna know?"
|
Abby nodded."yes..."
|
"All right," Xing said, a frown coming onto his face. "My family, the Tao family, are well-known for their fighting skills and, unfortnately, their bloodlust." And with that, he launched into the explanation of why he was in the tournament.
|
Abby sat and lissened. Intently,when he was done, she felt sorry for him.But understood."but , your different Xing",she said softly.
|
"I know it, Bason knows it, Shiki knows it, but most people..." Xing shook his head. "In China, when people hear the name Tao, they automatically think killer. And here I am, the sight of blood almost makes me want to barf." he said. "I made sure to leave for Japan at night, when everyone was asleep." He rolled up his shirt sleeve and showed the two women the back of his arm. "This happened on my last runaway attempt. The scars go all the way along my back. Now that I've fought Shinling, ther's no doubt that my father knows I'm in the Shaman Fight."
|
Abby frowned and gently touched it."thats horrible...."
|
Xing nodded. "What makes it worse, is that this means I'll have to face my father sooner or later, and you don't even want to think about how powerful he is."
|
"well if he trys to mess with you, we'll be there for you",Abby said looking extreamly serious. And that if you tried to argue, youed lose somthing.
|
Xing nodded with a small smile. "And we'll do the same for you." He said.
|
Abby blinked but smiled happily."rigth1"
