Chapter 5.

•Aries POV•

I watched as the scene unfolded. Virgo and Taurus finally arrived and I could already tell that Taurus was pissed.

Honestly, I didn't like all this arguing and it certainly doesn't make sense.. I'm not sure who to side with at this point, so I just continued watching.

"Don't blame me for this, just go back to your little girlfriend and I'll refrain from-" Ophiuchus was cut off as Virgo soon stepped inbetween.

"Let's all calm down, shall we? This is such an unnecessary argu-" Virgo was also cut off by a fist to her face from Ophiuchus.

"Quit getting involved." She hissed, and Taurus then tackled her. He made multiple punches to her face, before he was thrown off by Leo.

I whimpered next to Libra, completely astonished by this sudden eruption of violence. Libra looked at me, before she took my hand comfortingly.

Aquarius and Sagittarius then ran forwards to help Cancer pry Ophiuchus off of Virgo and to take Taurus somewhere calming.

I sighed in relief.

I was by my window and watching the peaceful view of the night sky, until I heard screaming from my open window. Nobody lives anywhere near us, and those screams almost sounded familiar..

I looked towards the screams and covered my gaping mouth, tears welling up within the corners of my eyes. Pisces had been a good friend to me, what had he done to deserve this..

Ophiuchus then came up behind me, also watching. "Cancer still being his over protective self then?" I looked at her with streaks of tears coming down my face and all she could do was hold in her laughter of amusement.

"W.. What did P-P-Pisces do?" My body trembled, threatening to collapse and I wasn't too sure if finding out what happened was a good idea or not..

"You know, just attacked Libra. Nothing major." She made a grin to me, and I couldn't help but hold back a choked sob.

When it was morning, I slowly made my way down, making sure nobody saw me(specifically Cancer and Scorpio). I made it all the way to the front door before Cancer came swaggering over and planted a hand against the door to prevent exit.

"Where are you going, ram?" He asked with narrowed eyes and a light smirk tugging up at the corner of his mouth.

"Y-You know.. For a.. Light morning stroll!" I nodded at my excuse, hoping he'd buy it.

"You expect me to believe one of the laziest signs is willingly going on a walk?" He raised a brow, and I nodded.

"Mm.. Ram, I hope you aren't lying to me." He removed his hand from the door, before he placed his lips next to my ear and whispered softly, "If I find out you are lying to me, don't blame me if I personally rip your horn off and ram it up your cute little ass." He smiled and smacked my ass before he walked back to the kitchen.

My legs trembled slightly, before I remembered what I was here for. I rushed outside and straight over to Pisces' unconscious body. I was weak, though Pisces wasn't heavy so I lifted him up and slung an arm over my shoulder as we walked back to the ruined castle.

We went in by the back entrance, and managed to make it up the staircase quickly before anyone noticed.
