                           Kapitel 3: Change of mind
                           -------------------------


Here it is - the new One-Shot. This time it isn't a One Piece - piece (what a
laugh ^^). It is a very short Witch Hunter Robin - Story. I really liked the
anime and so I made this story.


Change of mind:

From the time when he had first met Robin, he had known, that his life would
turn more complicated as it was already.

Amon always had a very shaped opinion about this kind of beings. There was no
place on this world for creatures like them, so he thought since his earliest
childhood. He had never understood his brother's opinion. Even his family and
his daily work hadn't managed to make him overthink.
But Robin  was the one, who was able to make him overthink the thought of bad
witches. 

She looked more like an innocent angel than an evil demon. But it wasn't her
harmless appearance, which caused a lot of confusing ideas to show up in the
mind of the hunter. Her kind and gentle way of acting caught his attention and
guided Amon to his present opinion. At first he had believed, that her manner
was only a strategy to endear herself to the STN-J members. But each day of
working together with Robin broke down another prejudice. He had a hard time
negating this new way of thinking. It wasn't easy to change his mind. 

Still, he didn't forget the dangers, that were related to her powers. If one day
she wouldn't be able to control these enormous powers, she would cause massive
destruction and a lot of pain. People would be hurt or killed by the strong
fire-crafts of the young witch. Maybe someday she have to be stopped. 
Amon didn't know a case of a craft-user, that didn't end as a drama.
He always tried to see a danger in her. But now he couldn't stop thinking that
she must be protected. 
The  blonde witch laid unconscious his arms. With her last ounce of strength she
had saved both of them. It was only her merit that they were still alive instead
of laying buried under thousands of tonnes of stone from the Factory building.
Robin's powers, the powerful fire-craft, rescued them. By burning a tunnel
through the thick concrete, the girl managed to build an escape route. 
The hunter wondered whether the others survived or hadn't managed to get out in
time. Nevertheless the current situation didn't allow him to check if everybody
was alright. The collapse of the Factory building surely was noticed by the guys
from Solomon. It was a matter of time, till the first investigators would arrive
at the scene. He was working for those people long enough to know, that they
would arrive rather soon than later. It was improbable that they would let Robin
and him alive. She wasn't in a state in which she was able to defend herself and
he too wouldn't be able to gain the upper hand against the well trained
superiority.
Amon didn't like the thought of not knowing about the condition of the others,
although it was essential that he left this place. It would be easier for him to
find out how his former teammates are than it would be for them, to detect his
and Robin's state. They had to disappear. Probably it would be the best to leave
this country and go to a solitary place, with no branch of the Solomon
organisation in the near sorroundings.

He looked at the girl in his arms. She looked peaceful, in spite of the many
smaller and bigger injuries which adorned her face and her body.
He had taken the responsibility for her welfare.
It was a very strange coincidence that he of all people was the guardian of the
Eve of witches.
But with the look at her, he, the adamant witch hunter decided that it wasn't
the worst thing that could have happened.
