An Ally for an Enemy.

Kiku had been wandering the halls of a place hes never been, Where was he? He wasn’t sure, all he knew was he had to get out of there fast. He turned the hall and saw a flashing light at the end. He ran down the light getting closer and closer. What could that light be.. he thought as he stepped up to it.  TAKE THEM. The lights flashed, he looked at the 2 handles to the right and left of him. He shook his head not wanting anything to do with it, and turned back to leave. BEEP. “Huh? What was that..?” he whispered looking down at his wrist. He had a small watch on, and it was counting down. It was a bomb. He was forced to go back to the handles. Taking a deep breath his grabs a hold of them both.  A light flickered on the computer in front of him. “Hello Kiku Honda. I want to play a game.” Kiku looked at the puppet getting more worried, the puppet had raised a barbed wire noose. He couldn’t understand why he had the noose in his hand. Suddenly 2 spotlights flashed on, and he couldn’t believe what he saw.

In front of his way his dear friends, Feliciano and Ludwig. Tied up and gagged, with barbed wire nooses around their necks and on platforms which Kiku had control of. “Feliciano! Ludwig!” he screamed getting their attention the looked at him with fearful, pained expressions. The puppet on the screen started talking again. “Well isn’t this a predicament. Your 2 Allies, about to die. But wait You can save them. Well. One of them. You have always been dependant on them, they would always help you when you needed it. But where were you when they need help? You never helped out when they needed it. So Which one is more of a help to you? You choose.” The screen went black. “T-This is rediculas! There has to be a way to save both!” he began to panic looking back and forth between the two. Feliciano was shifting back and forth trying to break free of his bindings. Ludwig, not making eye contact with Kiku, he watched the other tied up shaking his head. They both knew only one would survive but couldn’t bear to think of a life without the other.

There were two screens in front of Kiku that flickered on. He teared up looking at what was shown. Some of his happiest pictures of him with them. One side a picture of Kiku and Feliciano at the park smiling and having a great time. The other Ludwig and him doing origami. He couldn’t bear to look at the photos, he lowered his head tears streaming down his face and onto the floor. There was no way he could choose one, no way. Ludwig had managed to get the gag out of his mouth and looked over to Kiku. “Kiku!” He yelled, Kiku opened his eyes wide looking up at the German calling for him. “L-Ludwig..” he muttered. “Kiku! You Better Save Feliciano!” He yelled again ad Feliciano looked over at him shaking his head no. Kiku couldn’t believe what he was hearing, Ludwig was willing to kill himself to save Feliciano. “L-Ludwig! I-I cant!” He cried out looking back to the picture, then closing his eyes tight. “You Must! If You Don’t.. Ill Kill You!” He glared tears flowing down his cheeks. Kiku just continuously shook his head. What was he to do?! They were his best friends! Feliciano was staring at Ludwig making muffled screams through his gag. Ludwig ignored every sound coming from the Italian. “DO IT!” He screamed.

Kiku looked down again crying, as he began to loosen his grip on the right handle. Feliciano Watched him a pleading muffle coming from him. “I-I’m sorry L-Ludwig-san...” he mumbled letting go of the right handle. Felicianos eyed widened and looked over at Ludwig as the platform below him fell. Its like it happened in slow motion, He couldn’t look, all he could hear was Feliciano choking out a scream. Kiku looked up hearing a thud against the glass, it was Ludwigs body. It was hanging there motionless blood oozing down from his neck. Kiku was horrified as well as Feliciano. They heard a soft click and Kiku released the other handle, the noose and gag was taken off of Feliciano and he jumped off the platform, running straight to Ludwig. “L-Ludwig! No!” he sobbed looking up at his friend. “No! Please! Come Back! You cant Die!” He screamed tears flowing down his face. He reached up and grabbed his hand. “I-I cant go on with out you.. Please.. Come back to me..” He choked out.

Kiku walked to the door and entered the room. “F-Feliciano.. I-Im sorry..” He said walking over to his Italian friend. “No! Don’t touch me!” he yelled pushing him away. “You Killed Him! How could you?!” he cried. Kiku didn’t know what to say he just stared at him. Feliciano let go of the Germans hand falling to his knees. “He was the first friend I ever had.. And he’s gone..” He mumbled wiping his tear stained face. “M-Mine too.. I-Im sorry.. He cared more about you than his own life.. Im so sorry..” he told him softly holding his hand out to him. Feliciano looked at his hand hesitating for a moment. He grabbed his hand, Kiku lifted his last friend up to his feet. As the walked towards the exit Feliciano and him looked back at The German. “Goodbye..” the muttered exiting the room.
