Lost

~Rosetta~

I made it down safely and I was able to make it to my friend's party, I had a lot of fun, but the party had to go end soon because of her mum, so we all left the venue and when I went out of their house, I realised that I was lost.

For some reason, I was able to navigate and find my way to her house, but for some other reason, I can't remember how I got here and I definitely do not know how to get back home.

It was already dusk and Ambrose would have been back by now, I sat down on the bare ground, feeling tired and I rested my head on my knees, hoping help would come soon

***

At Ambrose's place

"What!? What did you say?!" Ambrose angrily yelled at Elias, he had just gotten home to find out that Rosetta was missing

"I - I'm sorry sir" Elias pleaded with his master

"You had one job Elias! One Job!" Ambrose said in anger

"I - I'll look for her, master" Elias said

"No, I don't want to put you in danger also" Ambrose said, "I'll look for her myself"

He went out, unsure of where to check first, Elias knew nothing concerning her whereabouts and if he didn't find her fast enough, he would regret it for life

Her being married to him put her in danger, even if she hardly knew anything about him, the enemies had a way of using her to get to him.

He didn't know what they wanted, but he was sure he didn't want to find out, it would be a big mistake to.

Ambrose finally found the spot where she was sitting, but he didn't see her, all he saw was her bag, lying on the ground in a very suspicious way, it looked as if it was dropped on the ground by someone trying to escape from something and that meant that Rosetta had been kidnapped, he couldn't let them find out anything about him, even if it was just the little that Rosetta knew

He looked around for anything that could tell him where they had taken her to, but he couldn't find anything

Then he felt as if he was being watched, he took some steps back, pretending not to know that he was being watched, that he did not know where the person was

Then, he swiftly turned around and grabbed the person by the neck, it was a man and Ambrose was so fast that the man didn't see what he just did coming

"Who are you? why were you spying on me?" Ambrose asked him, raising him up by the neck, the man was very frightened

"I - I just noticed th- that y- you were looking for the girl who was taken away not long ago" The man said

"Where did they go?" Ambrose asked, his tone still not calm

"I- I only heard them say that they better hurry up and - and take her to the king and they also said something about a war and - and they went that way" The man replied, pointing in pains

That rang a bell and Ambrose released his grip on the man's neck, letting him fall to the ground, then he leapt into the air, the man watched in shock as Ambrose flew away

~Rosetta~

*coughing* Where am I? I only remember eventually sleeping off, but being abruptly awakened by the sound of feet running towards me, I got up and tried to run away, all the while reaching into my purse to bring out my phone so I could call for help, but then I was pushed to the ground and I felt my purse and phone being dragged away from me and thrown on the ground

Then I felt a huge blow on my head and that was all I remember

Now I'm here in this dusty place, chained to the wall and there was this group of black clothed men, in front of me, they looked like they were discussing about something, but I couldn't see anything anymore because the dust was getting into my eyes and choking me also, I then decided to close my eyes again

There was suddenly a loud bang and the door flew open, Ambrose stood behind the door, glaring at the vampires

"Such nerve you have" One of them said

"How dare you barge in like that? you mannerless half" Another one said

"I should be the one throwing insults! considering the fact that you took what is mine" Ambrose said, entering, still glaring at them

"Nonsense!" One said

Ambrose walked over to where Rosetta was but he was stopped by a sword that blocked the handle

"We declare a battle!" A vampire announced and everyone drew out their swords

"Well then, it's a good thing I came prepared" Ambrose said and drew out two swords

"Even if you have two swords, you won't be able to defeat all of us" One of them said

"Yes! you don't even have half of our strength" Another one replied

"Actually, I have half of your strength, but not all of it, but what is strength in the face of tactics?" Ambrose replied

"We must put you in your place! Attack!" One yelled and the everyone came at him, he took out two in the twinkle of an eye and he blocked out every attack the rest tried to give him and lunged at them instead, he used the two swords as if each hand had a mind of its own

He took them out like it wasn't even a war and the last two that wanted to sneak up on him, behind his back, let's just say they didn't end up well

"Seriously, I just have to ask, is that all you've got?" Ambrose said, staring at them as they were all on the ground

"I mean, at least I should be tired, is this even a real fight?" He asked

At that, some of them tried to stand up to fight him, but they only ended up falling back on the ground, hard!

"It was fun playing with you, but now I have to go" Ambrose said and carried the unconscious Rosetta over his shoulder, out of the door and leapt again, then went to his place

When he got back to his place, he lay Rosetta on her bed and instructed Elias to watch her until she woke up, he immediately went to do what he was instructed to without even nodding as a reply because he still felt remorseful for not watching over her in the first place

Rosetta stayed unconscious for days and Ambrose got more and more tensed at this

There was something he had to do, to make sure this kind of thing would not happen again and he had to do it quickly, considering the fact that Rosetta was stubborn.
