Seeing how uncomfortable the discussion was making Ingrid, Lada decided to soften up a bit. After a little more discussion, they parted way.
Aldritch who had no idea what his lack of affection was causing back at the mansion trekked the streets of the city, casually going from place to place with no particular aim in mind, as he just used the time to think different things through.
There were some events that happened on the side, some he ignored, others he involved himself, like the helping hand he extended to the boy who was getting his ass handed to him, well, more like he was getting beat on by a group of thugs it seemed.
He also saw two drunk men fighting an ignored them, someone who was about to commit suicide... once the person fell, Aldritch drained the blood into his blood bank. Maybe he would have saved that person, but he was too late, as he was already close to hitting the ground when he saw the man.
Like every other, Aldritch was now standing before another scene, the question of whether to help or not certainly not requiring an answer in this case.
With a look of exasperation, he thought to himself while watching the middle aged man who was forcing himself on a young girl, 'what's wrong with people in this world? If you're going to rape someone, at least do it in a place where you won't be found out, not in a goddamn alley.'
The first time he saw something like this, was when he was with Ingrid for the first time during her hunt, after that, he had seen plenty, so much he would exhaust his fingers counting. Even then, it didn't seem to happen as frequently within the inner ring as in the outer ring.
"By any chance, is she just role playing? Or are you actually trying to rape her?" Aldritch stood a couple feet from the man as he asked in a tired tone, one would imagine his shoulders to be slumped deeply even, with his tone of voice.
"Fuck off boy! Mind your own business!" The man barked at Aldritch as he continued trying to pin the girl down properly.
"Heh..." Aldritch heaved a sigh as he watched the man succeed before unbuckling his trousers.
The girl under him had lost most of her strength and was doing little to struggle.
'But that guy has a thick skull, he'll probably be up before long, and if any other idiot was to come do anything funny, my efforts would have been a waste of time...'
After a few seconds of deliberation, Aldritch decided to pick the girl up and take her somewhere else.
All this time, while he was with his thoughts, Aldritch unintentionally ignored the girl's pleas, only realizing when she tugged at his trouser to get his attention. She looked way out of energy than she should be as her eyes were drowsy and she seemed to be struggling to keep herself awake.
Getting a closer look, Aldritch was certain that she had been drugged in some way, possibly, the only reason she was still awake was because she was trying so hard to resist.
"Calm down, tell me, where should I take you?" Aldritch asked in a calm voice, lacking the tired edge it had to it.
"Fi... f... ff..." The girl spoke weakly in an in audible manner. Her voiced kept trailing and cutting off, while her words sounded mixed up. It couldn't have been because she was speaking too quietly, because Aldritch would have heard her nonetheless.
After trying a few times without succeeding in understanding her, Aldritch resulted to searching her body for anything that could be of help, some kind of means of identification that may have her address. Discover more content at m,v l'e-novelhall.net
Aldritch searched everything she had, and by everything, she only had on her a purse and the clothes she was wearing, and there was nothing in the purse outside the cheap makeup and a small mirror. It was then when he was about to find another solution that he noticed something hanging just out of the man's coat that he used to cover the girl up.
"Fire Fly Fairies... a logo with very suggestive drawing... are you a prostitute?" He asked, even though he was aware there would be no answer, since the girl had fallen asleep.
"Ok, I'll check the red light district once. If its there, then I drop you off, if not, I tried my best."
With that decided, Aldricth first removed the smelly coat that covered her body, then in a princess carry, he picked the sleeping girl and left.
