TIME TRAVEL:First Journey:Vampire Hunter - Chapter 118
Becky doesn’t have time to mesmerising around. She continued to pull Mark somewhere in that wooden house.
Mark who confuses only follow where Becky want to take him. If Becky could really find that necklace for him, then he would gladly follow where Becky take him.
They keep walking around for a while to search the correct pathway to get where Becky want to go.
With these many flowers and plants and they also doesn’t familiar with these places, they keep lost several times.
After 30 minutes, at last Becky stop in the middle of the geranium flowers.
Mark look at his surroundings with a confused face. “Are you sure we are in the right place??” asked Mark doubtfully.
Becky nodded with a big smile on her face. “Yeah.”
Becky squatted and she start to find something behind all the geranium flowers. A few minutes later, she pulled up a chain of golden necklace with peac.o.c.k as its pendant. The peac.o.c.k’s eyes emitting a beautiful sparkle glow when it makes contact with the light.
Mark looked happy when he saw that necklace. He quickly grabbed it from Becky’s hand and examine the pendant. It is really have number nine at the back of the pendant.
Mark look at Becky again and he quickly pulled Becky into his embrace without he realised it.
“Thank you, Becky!!! You save my life!!” said Mark.
Becky could only smile in Mark’s embrace.
After a while, Mark realise his action and quickly released Becky again. He stared at Becky with an awkward stare because Becky also looking at him with her usual expressionless face.
Mark coughed a little to wipe away the awkward moment. “Anyway, how did you know to find it here?” asked Mark.
“I just followed the scent I picked from you. It’s not that hard because I can smell it pretty good,” said Becky with a proud face. She should be rewarded because of her rare ability. Not all people could do the same like her. Besides Becky won’t do this again for free… Such a bad girl…
“You have a good sense of smell? I don’t know if you have this ability but it’s cool though. But I still don’t know why it can be here. I never go to this place. This is my first time here,” said Mark while he look around him.
Becky also look around with an unimpressed face. She were unimpressed because she already knows about this place by sensing it using her smelling sense. She never enter this wooden house but she knows there are many kinds of flowers inside it by judging from it smells.
Becky look at Mark again. She touched the necklace again for two minutes before she said, “You better wear this necklace now if you don’t want it to lose again. I only help you this time because I have the mood to help.”
“Yes,” replied Mark as he wore the necklace instantly. “I will surely remember your kindness, Becky. I will pay this one in the future.”
Becky narrowed her eyes to Mark, only want to make sure that Mark says the right things. “Really?” said Becky with her disbelief voice.
“Yes, I promise!”
“Yes… Alright, I will be looking forward for it!!” said Becky excitedly.
Mark smile at Becky’s cuteness again. He really likes this side of Becky. The cheerful and cute girl…
“The answer for your question, there are other scent on your necklace. It is a scent of rabbit.. I think your necklace is drop off from you and the rabbits take it until here,” said Becky.
“Rabbits?? There are rabbits here?” asked Mark.
Becky look at Mark, also with a confused face. When Mark asked that question, she also just realised that she never saw any rabbits in the Caspian Castle before. So, where the f.u.c.k those rabbits came from then?
Becky sniffed again. This time she want to know where that rabbits come from. After she found out where the scent of the rabbits come from, Becky immediately follow it again.
Mark also want to know what Becky wants to find so he follows her.
After they crossed a few types of flowers, they stop in front of the wooden house door. Becky pushed to opened the door and she walked out. Mark still following her from behind.
In front of them now is another field with a small peak where there are many holes made there. There are few rabbits outside the holes and when Becky and Mark show up, they quickly hopped back to their holes.
“Rabbits!!” shouted Becky happily while she pointing at the rabbits which now already hopping to their holes.
Mark also couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw that rabbits. Thus, he could only chuckled slightly.
Suddenly Mark saw a palm-sized black with red spot spider on Becky’s right shoulder. Since he was standing just behind Becky, he could see the spider slowly crawling to the other side of Becky’s shoulder.
Uh-oh…. Becky afraid of spiders, right? But there is a spider on her shoulder now!
“Umm, Becky…”
Becky turned around her head to look at Mark who look surprised about something. “What?” asked Becky unsuspected for anything.
“Don’t move..!!” said Mark almost like he was whispering.
“What? What is it?? Why did you make that kind of face??” askes Becky irritated. She hates it when Mark was looking at her like Becky was a zombie or vampire or anything scary.
“Just don’t move… And don’t look back!!”
Becky take the necklace from the flowers minutes ago, right? So, the spider might jumped onto Becky’s body at that moment without Becky noticing it, Mark’s thoughts have started roaming inside his head.
When Mark says she shouldn’t look back, suddenly Becky feels scared. What if something scary is waiting for her at the back….?? But what it Mark only playing with her??
“What?? What is it on the back?? Mark, tell me!!”
“Don’t move!!”
Mark try to find something like a wooden stick to remove the spider from Becky’s shoulder.
Becky couldn’t wait anymore as she really wants to know. Therefore, she turned her head to the spot where Mark is staring at.
To her surprise, which gave her an electrical shock, Becky saw a black spider with red spot on its back was crawling on her shoulder.
“AARRGGHH!!!”
Becky jumped instantly as she hugged Mark automatically.
Mark were a bit surprised when Becky suddenly hugged him out of nowhere.
“THROW IT!! KILL IT!!! JUST… JUST DO WHATEVER TO REMOVE THAT F.U.C.K.I.N.G THING FROM ME!!! HURRY!!!”
Becky keep shaking her body to shrug off the spiders from her shoulder. Her momentum are not stable as she also make a lot of effort to remove the spider.
But it also making Mark hardly to remove away the spider.
“Calm down first, Becky… Don’t make any movement!!” said Mark.
“HOW CAN I CALM DOWN!!! ARGH, REMOVE IT, REMOVE IT, REMOVE IT… NOW!!!!”
“I HATE SPIDERS!!!”
“I REALLY, REALLY HATE THEM!!!”
“TAKE IT OFF!!! TAKE IT OFF!!! TAKE IT OFFFFFF!!!! AARRGHHHHH ~!!!!!”
“BUUHUHUHUUU!!”
Mark could sense that Becky already crying because of fear. But with Becky which keep moving around, he cannot remove the spider. So, he takes the initiative to hold Becky with his left strong broad hand to hugged Becky and the other one to slapped the spider off from Becky’s shoulder.
Slapped it??…. Yes, he slapped it…
“The spider is gone now. You don’t have to worry anymore!!”
But Becky don’t want to let Mark go. She still hugging Mark tightly as if she never wants to let him go again.
“Becky, the spider are gone already. You can relax now,” said Mark with a soft voice to calm Becky. Actually, he was a bit suffocated when Becky tighten her hug. She must be really scared of that spider.
Mark remember back there when they eat lunch together, Becky jumped off from her seat and hide behind him because she was scared of spiders. When Mark compared it to now, he found it more cute because Becky still didn’t look around her and only hide her face on Mark’s broad chest.
Mark smiled out of amus.e.m.e.nt.
Becky look like a little sister who need protection from her brothers.
“Becky….” Becky shakes her head, not wanting to turn around. She still feels trauma about the spider on her shoulder before.
“The spider is gone. You can let me go now!” said Mark with a gentle voice.
Becky seems realised that she was hugging Mark for a long time and she slowly let Mark go. Although, she seems hesitant to do that.
Becky look at Mark and she looked at her shoulder again. Mark is right, there is no spider anymore…
Mark can now feel comfortable when Becky released her tight hug. He can breath properly now but still, he misses the touch when Becky hug her, even though it was just a while ago.
Mark look at his chest and saw a three to four tiny drops of tears on his shirt. Becky must be crying.
Becky sobbed softly when Mark look at his wet shirt. She didn’t cry much, only a few drops of her tears running out from her eyes. But it is enough to make a mark on Mark’s shirt. All because of that stupid spider.
“Sorry,” murmured Becky.
Mark didn’t feel angry anyway. He only found it cute because for the first time, the strong and rude-liked Becky is crying.
“Don’t worry. There is nothing for you to say sorry!” said Mark, try to assure Becky. He feels a bit sympathy for Becky because she already turn pale, even paler than the corpse.
“And, also… Thank you….”
Mark smile again and he stroke Becky’s hair for the second time. “I’m glad you’re okay.”
“I’m okay as long as there are no other creature like that one previously!!! I might just die because of them!” said Becky with a hateful voice.
Mark chuckled when he heard Becky’s words. “You’re gonna be okay. Let’s get back to the Castle… The dinner is almost ready.”
Becky nodded and she followed Mark from behind.
When they walked among the flowers, Becky quickly clutched onto Mark’s hand and she doesn’t want to let it go until they are outside of the wooden house.
As for Mark, when he looked at Becky when she suddenly clutched onto his hands like a leech, he almost burst out into laughed because of Becky’s cute behavior. He can see Becky terrified face tell everything that Becky don’t want the same thing happened again. Since Mark understand it and he really like how Becky depend on him, he just let Becky hold his hand.
