Chapter 45 - Chapter 45 ‘Wounds’

"Och." Charles said. Gabriel was disinfecting the wounds. Dapping the cotton balls over the wounds. 

"What the hell did this to you?" Gabriel asked as he started to wrap the wound with bandages. As he finished wrapping one arm. 

"Clankers caught me off guard." Charles said with a growl after the words were spoken as if they were poison. 

"Wow there after you then you're their target." Gabriel said, looking at Charles. He starts to wrap the other arm with bandages. 

"Yeah, I got a price on my head." Charles looked at the ground. 

"The House of Evolution said you were the highest target. So they either be a bounty Hunter or a member of the House of Evolution." Abel said, speaking with them. 

"I thought we were alone." Gabriel said as Charles nodded. 

"You really don't know how to suppress your Chaos Energy noobs." Abel said as she massaged her temples. 

"I did not require that to beat you to a bloody pulp." Charles said, looking at Abel. Abel cringed at this statement. 

"You got lucky." Abel said, crossing her arms. Charles lets out a laugh. 

"I can go another round if you want to." Charles said with a crazed smile covering his face. His lower parts of his eyes had turned yellow. Gabriel slapped the back of his head. 

"Knock it off. Stop moving so I can get these bandages on." Gabriel said. As he starts to wrap his chest. As he pats Charles on the back. "Now you can move." He said with a smile. Charles tightened his fist. 

"Let's save that for Walpurgis." Abel said, putting his hands out. Trying to get out of fighting. Charles took a deep breath. 

"Fine, you're going to have to fight me." Charles said with a smile on his face. 

"Why." Abel whined that her arms were dangling at her side. 

"Because you are one of the strongest but I beat you fair and square." Charles said with a small glare. Abel statue became tense. 

"I have to fight this monster." Abel muttered under his breath. 

"What? I just got lucky." Charles said, taunting Abel. He said with air quotation. Rolling his eyes. Abel was gritting her teeth. 

"Charles, why do you have a price on your head?" Gabriel said, cleaning up the medical supplies. 

"I have no clue." Charles said, shrugging as he winced in pain. 

"Yes at long last I can finally rest on your shoulder with you shrugging." I said landing on his shoulder. He let out a wince. 

"Well damn I can't annoy you." Charles said, looking at me. Wait what did he say. 

"You are doing this on purpose?" I asked if my voice was deadly cold. 

"No I would never." Charles said I could swear his voice sounded sarcastic. I started flapping, hitting his head. 

"Damn you." I said, swooping at his head. He tried to lift his hands to block my attacks. But it did not stop. 

"Sorry! Sorry." Charles cried out. As I landed on his shoulder again. 

"Okay, looks like we have to plan for Walpurgis." Gabriel said. 

"You're not joining, are you?" Charles asked. Looking at Gabriel. 

"Well I am not your subordinate so I will be watching." Gabriel said with a smile. Patting his shoulder. 

"Well then I can see how unpppperfect." That damn Neko said. Her two tails swayed behind her. 

"That rude Neko." Gabriel said, looking at Neko. He licked her paw cleaning her face. I wonder why Neko is so prideful. 

"I can't wait to kill you." I said it was under my breath. Wanting nothing more to rip her apart. But I have to wait. 

"What did you say, Valtina?" Charles asked me. His blue eyes looked at me. He seemed predatory. 

"Nothing Charles." I said shivering he looked like Seris. 

"What I could have sworn you said something I know I don't listen much but I want to know." Charles said. His eyes held no threat. But I can't confess. 

"It was nothing important." I said looking at Charles. 

"Okay Charles, so what is the plan for Walpurgis?" Gabriel asked. 

"Well I have no clue using Starlight powers to defeat them quickly." Charles expanded to the others. With a small smile on his face. Abel was lending against the wall. 

"Yeah, you're really going to use all your power against fodder." Abel said with a sigh. She glared at Charles. 

"Well that includes you does that mean your fodder." Charles said with a fake smile on his face. 

"I am not." Abel said, gritting her teeth. She probably was stopping herself from attacking Charles. 

"Well what you said was I was going to fight only fodder." Charles said with a smile. Abel was getting even madder. Her face was flushed red. Abel's eyes held a level of hate. Charles let out a laugh. 

"When I cut you up like I was supposed to." Abel said, sighing as she stormed off. 

"Yeah sure whatever you say!" Charles called out with a smile. Then Charles bursted out laughing like a mad man. 

"You two are really strange." Gabriel said, looking at where Abel was before she stormed off. Charles slowly nods. 

"Yeah we are." Charles agrees looking at where Abel was. 

"I can agree." I said as Charles flicked his eyes to look at me. 

"Not nice." Charles said, Charles looking at me. I gulped down and still looked like Seris when he was mad. 

"Yes." I said quickly. I was almost scared. Both Seris and Charles seemed like Hellsing. Those two could grow into strong beings. Charles seemed to be changing rapidly. 

"You two are so close it's quite interesting." Gabriel said with a small smile on his face. Laughing out loud. 

"You act as if you're not interesting." Charles said with a smile. 

"Fair enough." Gabriel said as his laughter died down. His smile was matching Charles smile.
