Rineco's Story 2


To lose your whole world, to be back-stabbed over and over again, to technically not belong to this world. Quite a life, isn’t it? Being an outcast for my seventeen years of life seemed to be a problem enough, but to find out that my future was pretty much planned out for me too? That I had a mission to put order back into this deteriorating, and frustrating world? This world had already lost its serenity. In my eyes, there was no way of restoring it. But, that was my mission. Yep, no pressure at all. The world was only resting in the palm of my hands. sigh. The magical, and human world now. Everything seemed to keep falling on me, like an avalanche that would keep crashing down on me, and just wouldn’t let up, no matter how much I struggled to break free. Everything has continued to go wrong-problem after problem. It seems I am able to remember all of this too, not that I really want to…
Everything first started going wrong after my boyfriend’s mother found out about me being a half breed. Half vampire, and half werewolf. I did not see why I had to be punished, why I was being considered a monster, a total outcast to this world. It wasn’t my fault after all; was it? No. But, the fact that my mother and my love, Tsukai lie dead right now is. If I just hadn’t made that one mistake of leaving my home, everything would still be the same as it had used to be.
I was in my werewolf form on that chilled summer night. I still remember that evening so well. That was the night that my whole life seemed to make a dramatic twist, trapping me into a vortex of complete turmoil and confusion, and a million different problems and responsibilities. The night before I would lose my whole world, Tsukai, and my mother.
I hadn’t expected Tsukai's mother to be so enraged. But, I guess looking back, I can see her point. I must have looked pretty...unique to her at that moment. Of coarse she would have to announce this to our leader, I wasn’t even supposed to be living after all. I should have been killed at birth, along with my mother, and werewolf father. Well, my father was already dead. It was quite devastating to me. Although, at the time I was very young, but I still understood the fact he wasn’t going to be there with me. My mother never really accepted the fact that she had a half breed for her daughter. So I was pretty much on my own, except for Tsukai who was always by my side.
I could go on, and on of how much I miss him now; how much my heart has been aching just to see his comforting face, or to hear his soothing voice again. I know I will too, someday. Maybe soon even.
At least he never thought of me as a monster, or an outcast to our world, as our whole town now did. Everyone was against me.
I remember standing there, chained and waiting for death to come to me as it just had to my mother. Tears streaming down from my bright ocean blue and emerald green eyes past my pallid , smooth cheeks, then running into my snow white and blue highlighted hair. I could feel a deep growl wanting to erupt, to escape from my throat, but I couldn’t do anything. I wanted to just say something, to persuade these people that I wasn’t the monster they all see me as. I was just another person-It wasn’t my fault!
I was frozen there. I could feel my silver wolf ears leaning flat against my head. Inside, I was raged, furious! But horribly scared and nervous. I had so many feelings rushing through me at once, for a moment, It felt as though I was no longer even there. Like I was just a bystander watching this horrifying scene.
I watched the figure with the box of vaccines and vertical silk wrapped weapon, which I soon found was a dagger to kill me, walk towards my love. My heart was pounding rapidly, it almost hurt. No. It did hurt. I was about to watch my whole, entire world crumble into pieces in front of my eyes. My whole life was about to be demolished, and I was helpless, not being able to do anything to prevent it. But, I knew I had to do something! I had to at least try!
I remember the sudden metallic crack of the metal chains beginning to snap. I had lost it. My mind, my body. I was gone. I reared forward again, breaking the chain collar around my neck. I could hear the surrounding crowd of my fellow vampire villagers erupt into a burst of excitement, conversation and screaming. Before I knew it, I was there, right at Tsuaki's side. But first, I had someone else to take care of.
I tackled the guy with the vaccine to the ground, grasping his neck, feeling it pulsate quickly beneath my hands. A low furious growl emerged from deep in my throat, my fangs bearing completely as I looked down at the murderer. I felt as if I had no control at all. I was ready to rip him into shreds at any moment. I looked down at him in his eyes, seeing almost complete fear, but also some respect. I released my hands from his neck, hearing a horrible distressed cry next to me. I left the guy there, trembling in fear, and grasped my weakened boyfriend. That’s when I realized I was too late. The vaccine was meant to kill vampires immediately, without any pain-as long as they get the full vaccine. That is where I went wrong. I was seconds too late, leading him into a slow and painful death. But I couldn’t get myself to do anything about it. My heart was already shattering as I extended my dragon like wings, and lifted off into the air. I felt numb, along with my breaking heart. I remember finding a safe spot about a fifteen minutes flight from the village. I knew no one was following. They probably figured Tsukai would die, and I would just be left as someone else's problem. Well, they were right. My boyfriend passed away that night. Waking up to a dead body of someone you had deeply loved laying beside you in the morning, really wasn’t a good way to start off an adventure. But, leaveing my sorrow and past problems behind me,I left my love, in hopes of seeing him in the afterlife, and travled farther into my journey.
That is when my adventure started. Along with a lot of problems.
Thanks to my urgent, yet rare blood lust, I had found my friend, and also my enemy- Yoru Mioshi. It turned out that he knew more about me than I did myself, along with much more about my past. I found, that he was the son of my fathers werewolf friend. Quite interesting how that worked out, huh? Well, his father and mine had died in a battle with each other. Yoru's mother had died giving birth to him, which, after his fathers death, only left a nanny to care for him. They had traveled to the mansion where I had found him accidentally. To put this into a few words-Yoru hated and despised me very deeply. He blamed me for his fathers death, and the fact that he had never really gotten the chance to know him sense he had been young too. Yoru, was a mixture of three different breeds, so Yoru's father hadn’t accepted him either, but kept it a secret still, like my mother had. But, he still held rage inside about mixed breeds, making him go off on my father when he told his best friend about his daughter. I had found out also, that Yoru had taken some possessions of mine, for example, my home-made coffin that my father had been making for me, in which he finnished before his death. The coffin was very beautiful, having the identical unique, and exotic blue designs as my tattoo's that engulf my entire body.
After I met Yoru is really when my adventure began to take shape even more. Thanks to him, I found out that I am much more than just a mixed breed or an outcast. I am also a "special" breed. Meaning that a, I suppose you could say goddess of our magical kind, picked me to help put order back to our world. This goddess, or Miasaki, picks one like me every thousand years. The person that Miasaki picks usually holds a large understanding of the world, and also has a lot of different views and thoughts on things, along with a pure heart.
Later on, our magical world came in contact with the humans. So, on top of all my other responsibilities and problems, I had curious, and mischievous humans after me too. Truthfully, that problem has still yet to be figured out. I still wonder at this moment if it ever will.
But now, and yet again, I have been stabbed in the back. This time by the two people I deeply trusted, my only two people that had stayed with me. Miasaki and Yoru...insolent fools. Finding that Miasaki was actually the one causing all of my trouble was quite unexpected to me, I had wondered about Yoru before-but, I needed his help. Thus, I guess that’s how life is, is it not? Completely unexpected all the time. You never know what could be waiting just around the corner for you. I found that fact out-although it wasn’t through the most pleasant ways.
So, now to continue with my journey, I must go to the spiritual world. Could this be a whole other adventure creeping up on me? Well, atleast now I finally will get to complete my job after all. If I survive this, that is. It could take my life away, just trying to travel to the spirit world to get to Miasaki. I knew it would immediately for any normal magical being. Either way, I didn’t have a choice now. Although I wasn’t respected in this life, I had a duty as my species to help save this world, to help those who still loved and cared. Yes. I had to. But still...
Was I dead?
Truthfully, that’s all I could think in my mind at that moment. Everything was still embraced in a heavy, almost suffocating blanket of darkness. I heard, felt, nor sensed anything around me. I seemed to be in a deep state of reverie, deep enough to feel none of the pain that I should have-sense my body, and lungs should have been shutting down. It was as though I was floating in a black sky, nothing holding me down, the only substance around me being air. It seemed peaceful in an unexplainable way. But, I could feel myself trembling, I still wanted to scream out, but my mouth felt as if it was glued shut. I couldn’t get myself to move, or anything at all for that matter. In a way, it seemed that I was paralyzed, but yet, at the same time I felt free, and light.
I recalled that old saying as I closed my eyes. The one that says- “In a near death experience, your whole life flashes before your eyes.” In a way, I had found that was true. I could see all my memories flashing through my mind, clearly, and vivid, as If I were there again. I remembered everything that had happened, every detail since Tsukai's mother found my secret.
All I could think of, was what would happen if I didn’t make it; or if I already hadn’t made it? What would happen to the spirit world, what would happen to my world? The world that I had lived in the past seventeen years? Would I never get to see it, to breathe and live in this world once again? Would I be able to save those who still appreciated and tried to help this world? People who still carried love in their hearts?
I paused in my thoughts, and wondered why this mattered to me. Not many were still pure, nor showed any respect for each other anymore. There wasn’t much to leave in that world. But, there were still good people, innocent children. I had to do something for those people. I had to try.
No.
I would find a way-no matter what it cost me.

CHAPTER 1
I suddenly felt disconnected from my body, completly gone. It is unexplainable to describe what completly happened to me at that very moment. My head began spinning, visions, of unknown places, and people seemed to flash though my head as if I was fast-forwarding though a movie.
Then nothing.
Everything went suddenly black, and I couldnt think straight. I had no idea what was going on, what was was happening around me or to me. Then everything stopped, went darker, and continued like that. Thats when I realized I was beggining to go unconscious. Suddenly, I felt frantic, scared. I struggled to keep conscious, to stay where I was, but...
everything seemed to be fadeing..
so very quickly...
I had finally awoken, atleast I thought. I could see a light through my eyes, although they were closed. I was almost afraid to open them, in fear of what I might now see. But I did anyways.
The sun was gleaming brightly in the ocean like sky, the clouds floating delicately though it, drifting away in the warm breeze. I smiled, then sat up carefully.
Everything seemed to be spinning, I still felt numb, not to mention sick. After I steadied myself, I gradually stood up. That is when I actually had gotten a more vivid look of what my surroundings were.
I was horrified.
The beautiful summer sky could not nearly cover up this much of a morbid, and tramatizeing like scene. This was the spirit world? This is the peaceful, and heavenly place I had dreamed to be in after death?
Words could not nearly describe the sight that was right infront of me. This looked more like hell instead of a heaven, or a safe place after life on my old world. In fact, my previous world looked amazeing, and angelic compared to this.
I grimaced at my surroundings, then took a slow step.
The tree's were all dead, wilted and colored a deep charcoal black. The grass was a dark tan color, some of it also looking burnt, being a light charcoal color. Now that I was actually observeing this scene, I noticed there was a smell, a smell of rotting flesh, and old, dried blood. The forest I was in had an erie, and horrible vibe to it. Inside I wanted to run away, to somehow escape this scene and get back to a more peaceful spot. The vibe I had scared me the most, more than the smell or scenery. It was very unusual for me to get the urge to run away, or even get paniced and scared of a scene like this, sense I had been in my fair share of disturbing scenes. I could feel myself trembleing, breathing more quickly and deeply. Fear had stricken me, and felt as though it was tearing, ripping apart my insides, and putting me mentally, physically, and emotionally unsecure.
I sniffed the air again, smelling fresh blood , nearing me. Closer and closer...
Something cold, and wet touched my shoulder. I jumped, and spun around, swinging my fist into whatever dared to touch me.
I shivered. Nothing was there. Looking at my shoulder, I frowned, and began to feel more worried.
There was a streak of skarlet blood running down my shoulder, a lot of it; and it was my blood. I did not feel anything when touched, except something cold. The wet must have been my blood. Nothing should have harmed me that easily, with that smooth and quick of a motion. My skin should be like steel to most magical beings, and especially humans.
I felt myself take in a sudden gasp of air. I was launched forward into the ground. I could smell more of the fresh blood streaming down my back.
My heart was pounding rapidly. I was in a complete state of panic and fear, although I had no idea what was happening. I put my hand on the left, more bottom half of my back, and followed the wound. It was a clean, but deep cut. I closed my eyes tightly as the pain finally started to reach my mind, making me shiver. I pulled my hand away, and opened my eyes again. Blood. My hand was completly covered in a thick, sweet smelling layer of crimson blood.
I shivered again, and suddenly froze.
"So, you finally arrived Rineco?" I frowned, and looked behind me. Yoru.
"What the hell are you doing? Whats going on!?" I yelled in pure panic, and through tears. "Yoru....." I mumbled again through sob's, actually looking at him deeper now. He had changed-a lot. His eyes were both a deep blood red color. His hair was still a bright white, with a red streak running down the left side of his bangs. His hair was also slightly longer, and more spikey. He seemed to be about four inches taller than he had been when I had last seen him before he dissapeared. He was wearing new looking black jeans, and a black t-shirt. But his expression is what bothered me. He had that crazed look of hatred and evil, like he had the times he had tried to kill me. Was this going to be another one of those times? Was the only real friend I had left going to kill me? I could feel more tears running down my cheeks again. I closed my eyes. As easily as he had must of hurt me just now, with those quick, smooth and percise movements, it wouldnt take him long to finnish me. He would win, and I would pretty much have no chance.
"Im not going to kill you Rineco." His smiled faded slightly. "I wouldnt do that after you have gotten this far." He paused. "Atleast I wont do it right now."
I closed my eyes tighter. Everything seemed to spinning. My head was pounding, along with my heart. I was completly lost. What was going on?
"Yoru..whats happening.." I mumbled, and opened my eyes again to look up at him.
Yoru smiled again, away from that crazed smile, and back to his lazy/happy, crooked smile that I had begun to like. "You may find out soon enough." He grinned again. "How about, you just take a small nap."
The last I seen was Yoru's face, his smile, then his hand going over my eyes.
I had awoken to the sight of a grey ceiling, and a blinding light shineing down on me. I squinted, then sat up, rubbing me eyes. I was in a dull looking room, which only consisted of a bed, and a night-stand beside it. The floor was just grey cement with nicks and scratches on it. To me, this looked more like a jail cell, then a bedroom.
I got up from the bed, and journeied out of the room.
"Rineco! Good, you have awaken." He grinned.
"Whats going on?" I asked firmly, and bluntly. I wasnt about to waste anytime, and I wasnt going to trust him this time either. Something was wrong. He lied to me, or he wouldnt be here with me right now. He should be back on our old world. Nothing was making sense anymore.
My mind was being thrown into a vortex of complete turnmoil.
There was silence for a moment. "Nothing."
"The hell there is nothing going on!" I yelled louder, then walked up closer to him. "Why are you even here? Damn it! You have to tell me something, what is going on in this world?!"
There was silence once again, then a quiet sigh.
"Tell me Yoru!" I could feel my cheeks turning red as I was becomeing more enraged.
"You werent supposed to even make it here in the first place.." Yoru mumbled under his breath. I was wondering if he ment me to hear that statement or not.
"What do you mean?" I paused. "Explain!" My voice raised again as I glared harshly into his eyes.
Yoru sighed again. "I put..a spell on you, right before you left for this world. It was supposed to help kill you, to shut your body down quicker, that way..I wouldnt have to do it myself. I dont want to-but if thats what it takes to do this, then I dont have much of a choice.." His words drifted off.
"Do what?!" My voice raised again.
"To help Miasaki. You see.." He laughed. Miasaki came into my mind, like she had with yours. I knew her plan from the beggining. Then, when you came along...well, I was going to be ment to kill you but..." He paused and looked me in the eyes. "I dont..."
I stared back at him. "So.." I laughed, then put my hands over my face for a moment. "So I have been stabbed in the back once again. Oh, lucky me!" I paused again. "If you dont want to fight me then dont. But I havent gotten this far to back down now. I will kill you Yoru. I am not afraid to now, you have went to far with your constant lieing." I took a breath. "But, let me ask you a couple questions I need to know first." I paused again. "Why did Miasaki pick you exactly, and why get me out of the way? I mean, none of this makes much sense to me."
"Its not ment to make much sense to you. Everything has been a huge mistake, a calamity. Miasaki, well, she isnt herself at the moment. That is the reason you know that you are a special breed, because she broke out of the spell.." His words drifted for a slight moment, then picked back up. "So, when she was put back under the possession spell, she put me into her plans. Miasaki is the godess of our kind, the most powerful. She knows the future, and she knew that you would be meeting me. So, it is my job to get you out of the way now. Thank the real Miasaki for getting you killed." He grinned again, then walked towards me.
"Im not done with the questions idiot." I replyed flatly. He stopped and glared at me.
"Why had she even sent me on those missions anyways then? To keep me busy? Also, what is whoever put her under this spell trying to accomplish? And, lastly, who put her under this spell, and also what are you getting from doing his or her dirty work?
There was no reply for a moment. "Miasaki has been breaking from the spell every so often, so some of the times she had came to you, well, she might have been herself, although at the same time not. You see, first off, she wouldnt have enough time to tell you everything that has been happening, and secondly, along with the possession spell, we put another spell on her that is much stronger. Im not sure how to explain this, but in a way, we lock her words in, to where she cannot tell the exact truth of what is going on. It is complicated. But, those missions were planned anyways, to keep down the suspiscian for one thing, and also the fact that we dont want the humans in this war-which unfortunately, they are now. Whats in this for me, is power. Absolute power." He paused and grinned. "To help them, I gain power, in which I already have more than you do now, well, power that I know how to weild at least. I will be able to help be in complete charge of this world." He smiled larger. "And.." He laughed. "I never did mention to you, that Miasaki had a sister, did I?" He began to walk towards me more now. "Miasaki's sister is pretty much her other half, her demonic half. When Miasaki was made into a special breed, she wasnt strong enough to handle it, and the spell, or whatever had a deformation. It split Miasaki into two people pretty much. Does that answer your questions?"
I glared at him. "So, your going to kill your friend, just for power? Your going to help destroy the magic world, destroy our fellow magical being's freedom?" My voice was completly monotone as I stared hard into his eyes. "Your going to help make that world worse than it already was?"
Yoru grimaced, and his eyes flashed silver.
"Have you even thought over what you were doing, or were you only thinking of yourself, the power you could gain from this? I would of had you rather killed me, and get my power, then help with Miasaki's sister's plan. You have always been like this sense I met you, but I thought of you being smarter then just following some stupid plan for power. Your a complete idiot Yoru, I hope you realize that..."
Yoru looked down, and said nothing for a moment. He mumbled something I couldnt hear lightly under his breath then looked back up at me, giveing me his old crooked smile. "I know I am."
I smiled. His eyes were silver. I was almost surprised that I actually had talked some sense into his thick head.
I walked forward. "So, what do we have to do?"
Yoru frowned and looked down. "Im afriad they may be too far into their plan for us to stop, or even delay this. Miasaki's sister, Karuki is heading to our world I think. From there, I was afriad she was planning to take over some other worlds besides that.
"Other worlds?" I raised my eye brow.
"Yes, other worlds, actually, more spiritual world's you could call them. Some of those worlds though, arent the greatest. The ghosts, and other creatures there, well, they arent too friendly. Most likely we will be too late to save our old world, that will become another spiritual world ruled by Karuki. There are hundreds of other spirital worlds out there-"
"Wait, does that me Tsukai could be in any of those hundred worlds?" I frowned, and felt tears begin to drop from my eyes, as my heart began to sink."
Yoru frowned. "Newer deaths will be in the newer created spiritual worlds. This world is the largest, and this is where most of the special breeds, god's, godesses, and just very strong magical beings stay at. Many have been possessed, along with Miasaki so they will help Karuki. Karuki...well, she made another problem. She is draining her own sister's power. She put another different spell on her to add on to the normal possesion spell , a spell that will eventually kill the person, and give their energy to the spell caster. It will be a while before Miasaki dies, the spell kills the person gradually, so its a slow process, but still. So, Karuki is pretty much the strongest being right now.
"So, we have a limited time to stop Karuki, who is traveling to hundreds of different worlds; and if we dont stop her in time, Miasaki will die, and Karuki will take over everything......" I paused and sighed. "This....is it going to be possible?"
"I dont know Rineco, most likely..not."
I frowned and thought for a moment. "Her spells cant be destroyed, can they?"
"No, not unless there is a stronger being than her through out these worlds-most likely theres not.
I paused, and looked down at the floor for a moment. "Could..I be the strongest being?"
Yoru's harsh laugh filled the atmosphere. "Ha! She's probably a thousand times stronger than you right now! You would have to know how to use your powers proffesionally, and have ultimate skill and stradegy, not to mention have a good plan that we can rely on. Either way, even if you did know how to use your power and were strong, you would need more help to get stonger."
"What do you mean? Training?"
"Not..exactly Rin.."
I looked in his eyes for a moment as he began to speak again. "You would have to do something, well, that wouldnt really be of your character.."
What he was saying finally hit me. "I'd..have to kill people..and get their power..wouldnt I..?" My words drifted off. If that was the only way,I...well, there was just no way! I couldnt do it-the end.
"I know you wouldnt want to, but..that might be the only way...if you took care of some of the being's on this planet, well-then maybe you could. Its possible, you would have a much better chance than you do now, but..still. It would be very hard, and close. So, its either kill people, get powerful, and save all these worlds and people, or just sit here in misery while the worlds get taken over by Karuki. Your choice Rin, your life.."
I could feel tears running down my cheeks. The presure on me seemed to be riseing, like hot lava in a volcano that could burst to the surface at any moment. I was a ticking time bomb, and could go off at any moment. More tears escaped my eyes. But Miasaki was also like a ticking time bomb, her life could be destroyed if I didnt do anything to help.This mission seemed completly impossible, seems we'd already lost..
"I..I cant do this Yoru..I mean, I want to-but.."
"K' Rin." He turned from me. "Lets find something to eat."
"Eat?! Why the hell would I even want to think of food right now?! Like Im just gonna sit here chowing down all my worries away while the world is being taken over and destroyed! Fine! I'll do something!" I yelled, and brushed the hair from my eyes. "Lets go."

Chapter 2
So, what have I gotten myself into this time? I thought as we made it to the door at the mansion Yoru had taken me to."By the way, is this your mansion?"
Yoru looked over at me. "Yup, tis mine. A treat from Karuki I guess you could say. I was one of her main assistance, so she thought of it as a need that I had a good place to stay."
"Ah..So, Ms Karuki is heading to our home world then?"
"Yea, as far as I know. It wouldnt be wise to go after her right now though.
"I know that. Im not strong enough yet. Hmm...do you think that she will find out about us, I mean, you are one of her head assistants. She'll probably be wondering where you are, and Im afraid if she see's you, she'll figure out that your not under her spell anymore. Your eyes are back to silver too, Im sure she would atleast notice that."
Yoru paused. "Didnt think about that..Well, she is going to be busy, and she has many other assistants. We just have to try to stay away from her."
"Yea, but how exactly. We wont know where she's at every minute. And we cannot nessesarly stalk her." I laughed.
"No, we cant. Hmm..Well, gossip always flow's throughout the villages in this world when anything is heard. We can keep watch on the gossip, so we know where she's headed."
"Yea...I guess. Thats about the only way, isnt it?"
Yoru nodded as we came to the door of the mansion. Yoru turned the handle, and opened the door which sqeaked loudly. Tainted sunlight poured in through the door. I squinted, and walked forward into the reddish tinted light. I frowned as I walked out the door. It was if I was expecting a drastic change, to see our old world in a way. But no. All I seen was destroyed land, a nightmare like scene that was unescapable. Everything simply looked dead. It seemed surprising still, especially the first time that I had seen this place. But, it was just nothing like I had pictured the afterlife to be like. Had it always looked this way, or was this Karuki's fault. I frowned, and glanced over at Yoru who was also studing the surroundings with a sorrowful frown.
"Looks horrible, doesnt it.." I replied in almost a whisper. I almost felt afraid to speak up. It was so quiet, erie, and uncomfortable. It was no where close to being peaceful, which seemes surpriseing, considering that I used to love the serenity of everything being mute. Now, it bothered me, I wanted to hear noise, I wanted to hear people talking, laughing, liveing; unlike this world.
"Yea..it is horrible. Surprising that I never really had taken this in. I guess Karuki's spell make it invisable to me to realize. Its sad. This world never used to be like this, its changed so drastically..." His words drifted off into the uncomfortable quiet of the atmosphere.
"Wait, how did you know how this world use to look like?"
"Oh..mmm." He paused.
"What? You can tell me."
"I used to work for Miasaki.."
"Huh....but, ho-"
"I had commited suicide about a month or two after my girlfriend had gotten killed. I didnt want to live that way. I was a killer, alone, in a boring mansion away from everything. Miasaki was in complete control at the time, she was a good person. I could sense Kauki's hatered for her though. She had always been left out from everything, of no importance to anyone. In a way I felt bad for her. But anyways, Miasaki united me with my girlfriend." He paused and smiled for a moment, lost in his thoughts. "Well, she was dissapointed ofcoarse. I could see her point, I mean, I realized that It was stupid for me to destory my life over a death, but I loved her so very much, and I couldnt live like that, there was just no way. But she wanted me to live, and Miasaki gave me a choice, I could stay here, or grant my love's wish, and live my life till I died when It was meant to be my time." He paused again, and sighed. "So, at first, I went against her wishes, and stayed here for a week, but it turned out that it hurt her more than being away from me. She blamed herself for my death, and it was making her life a liveing hell. So, a week or so later, I went back to Miasaki. Miasaki is nice enought to give those who take there own lives another chance at times, if they're good people, and had good reason's to live. I guess that I seemed like a good, loyal person to her then, cuz she sent me back to the mansion in our world. Although before she did, she said that she may need my assistance one day, and it would be one of my duties to help her. I agreed ofcoarse. That seemed reasonable, she was giving me my life back after all. But I drifted back into a depression state, and ended up turning into a selfish power hoarding, blood lusting monster." He looked me deeper in the eyes with a frown. "Then I had a visiter about three months before you showed up. Karuki had taken over, being stronger than her sister, and was in control. She can sense people's personality's, and she knew that I would be a good assistant to help her with my plans. She offered me power if I helped her, and I took it. My first job was getting rid of you, or atleast to distract you, sense you were the special breed. Karuki couldnt have you interfereing with her, and she would just take it over in secret-which didnt work. But anyhow, You found me like she said you would, and well.. I just couldnt do anything. You have a pureness and innocence to you thats just..its like an unbreakable sheild, and I dont want to see you die." He stopped and looked down. "Im afraid though, that I might..well, be falling in love with you Rineco.." His words drifted off into a light whisper as he stared silently at the ground.
"You have a violent way of showing love then." I laughed. "Considering You've hurt me several times, and almost killed me a few."
"Im sorry Rin."
I paused, and smiled drifted back to a frown, and I began to focus on his mind, what he was thinking, pure..intense..focus..
Yoru's thoughts
What was I thinking all of those damn times?! God! Im a complete idiot for even agreeing for power. I know that Rineco would never love me back, I dont blame her after all that I have done..all the lies. She probably doesnt even trust me now, she probably thinks my love confession was a big joke. Yep, a big ******** joke, and its all of my fault. I ruined it, I ruined everything, my whole life. I hurt everyone that I become close to, and I did all of this for power. If only, If only I could just tell her that I am not lieing at all right now, I unconditionally love her, every damn part of her! But she will never know...
Exit
Wow...
Thats all I could think of. I never knew that he regreted everything that much, and how much that he felt for me. I thought that it was all a joke. I was compeltly wrong. But, what was I supposed to do?I had Tsukai to be with. But, would I ever be with him again, would he still even love me? I felt tears fill my eyes. I had to find him, I had to know this. What if he didnt though, what if he forgot about me? Heh, who was I kidding, I was just worring myself. I was worring for nothing at all...
"There's a town ahead.." Yoru's monotone voice broke through my thoughts.
"Oh, uhm, k'."
I looked ahead of me, seeing the town ahead. I frowned again. The town seemed to look dead to, black, dead vines crawling up unevenly on the houses and buildings. The homes and shops were all colored in deep browns, blacks, and grey's. The sun was just begging to set in the afterlife, sending skarlet red, and burnt orange beams across the land, and drifting gently across our pale faces. The sunlight wouldnt hurt us here, no matter how long we lay under its intense light, which was a good thing, and made it simple to travel. Yet, it still seemed better to travel closer to night, it was much quieter, and slightly more peaceful.
As we walked into the somber town, I began to notice that there were very few people. Not to mention that most of the homes were dark, no dim light shineing dimly through the window shades. There happened to be only a few shops open now. Funny, you even had to work to make a living in the afterlife. I studied one of the shop owners as we walked past. She had raven black hair, pulled back into pig tails that flowed down to her knee's. The navy blue renesaunce, peasant like dress hugged her small figure, then gracefully dropped down to her bare feet. Her white angel wings had a grey tint to them in the dim lantern that hovered above her, shadeing her pale skin darkly, and casting danceing shadows across her scowling face.. She studied us intensly, her deep red eyes following us uncomfortably, and nervously. She scowled again as I looked back into her eyes, then spun around and began to fiddle with some of her shop supplies which consisted of small snack foods, such as rice ball's, and cakes, and a variety of pastries. I felt Yoru tap my shoulder, then give me a glare, glanceing at the shop owner, then ahead, signaling me to look that way too.
The farther we walked through the village, the darker it seemed to get. We had made our way out of the markets now, which followed in a flurry of small weak looking houses that were almost touching eachother. The only light left was the full moon that hovered above us, the few dim stars, and the old, rusted spider-web emabraced lanterns that hung on wooden posts following the dirt path.
"How far are we walking tonight? And where are we even going?" I turned and whispered to Yoru.
"Well, we cant go back to your world yet, there is no way to face Karuki now. I am not expecting for us to fight tonight either truthfully; we should get to a town away from the mansion, and rest for the night. Tomorrow evening, we will begin your training. We will probably end up walking till about 6am in the morning; Its about 9:40pm right now." He said, locking my eyes with his, which hesitated, and slowly drifted back ahead. I also shifted my veiw from him, and looked ahead.
I wonder what he is thinking about. My mind began to race into a million new questions that were begging to emerge in my head. The way his eyes stuck to me, I wonder...
"Rineco.." Yoru muttered.
"Hmm?" I turned and looked over at him. His face was still turned ahead, but I could tell from the pale moonlight that his face was begging to turn redder. He is thinking about that...
"Mm..never mind....sorry." He swallowed slowly.
I almost felt like giggleing. He was cute in his own little ways. He never showed his shy side that often. I froze in my thoughts for a moment. I was beggining to have a feeling, one that I hadnt felt in a long time...before all this trouble of me being a half breed started. Mmm...
I smiled to myself, and closed my eyes for a moment. I was begging to feel a warm heat rush through my cheeks, my heart pounding slightly faster..
I felt as if on the verge of letting out an explosion of giggles, my smiles spreading till I could feel the cold air pushing against my teeth. I was suddenly feeling so happy, giddy..
Huh?! I quickly shut my mouth, and stopped in my tracks, only for a mere second, and picked up again. I could feel my eyes widen as an explosion of turmoil invaded my brain, embraceing it, and throwing me into a complete other world.
Was I falling in love with Yoru?
"mm.." I let out a confused, low whimper. Yoru glanced over at me.
"Why is your face red?"
"I-uhm. I dunno, its uh, kinda hot outside, dont ya' think? heh.." I gave him a big smile, then swiped one of my hands across my forehead, then sighed.
"Uh, sure. If you say so Rineco.." He paused, and muttered words that I barely made out. "Yea, 40 degree's is really hot.."
I frowned. I would think about somethin' else. Some one else! Tsukai! Yup! My one and only true lo-
I finally noticed something. We were already in the next town, and I couldnt believe what I was seeing.
My heart seemed to shatter into peices right then, completly taking away all other feeling's or thoughts that I had just had a few moments ago. I felt frozen, dead.
"mmm" A figure unlocked his lips from another ahead of me, shadow's danceing across his white face from the lantern that he stood under with a partner. His silver hair also drifting gracefully across his face, covering one of his eyes. His other ruby eye studied me for a moment, looking up and down my figure, the sticking at my face. He slowly took his hands from his partner's waist, and began to walk towards me and Yoru.
No..
No....
It couldnt be,
He wouldnt do that...
No...
He would never hurt me..
He would never leave me.........

Chapter 2
It was then I realized how hard love was. Confuseing in the beggining, but seeming to be the best thing in the whole universe that could ever happen. That special person holding you in their arms, tightly, securly. Whispering in your ear that everything is alright, that they would never hurt you, that they love you, and will never let anything bad ever happen to you, that they would never leave you, or even dream of leaving you. Your world begins to dissapear, reality dissapears. This seems to leave you in a happy yet confusing state, and also a complete fairy tale, a glorious and beautiful dream that you wish to never eskape from, to never leave. They seem so loyal, so absolutly perfect that you cant help but trust them, unconditionally love them, to put your whole entire life in their hands, your whole world and future that you are hoping, and just know you will spend with them. To hope that you will spend with them..
But what happens when their hand crushes down, closing your heart, your soul, yourself, in a blanket of unescapable darkness and missery. Crushing everything, your hopes, your dreams..
Maybe love is the best thing in this world, but there is so much to it, and it is such an almost deadly risk to take. You have to put everything into that special person, you have to give them your heart, as they do with theirs to you. But maybe love is the most painful thing too, when that person maybe doesnt return your love, or just doesnt give back that trustful, loyal, adoreing emotion back to you. Possibly, that special person will fall for another, pulling their heart that they had given you, and letting another person keep it, leaving you there with only dead emotions, and lost memories of happier times, and the time they they broke your heart into nothing but dust.Maybe you end up left there alone in the end, starving for their hearts again, or for another's everlasting love....
"Rin..?"
"Tsu..kai..?" My voice broke, and my eyes seemed to explode into a faucet of salty tears. My heart was being torn into two ways. One side wanted me to run up to him, to never let go, and kiss his soft lips. To tell him how much I had missed him, and how much I still loved him, how happy and completly releived I was to see him again.
The other side was screaming at me to run away, or to yell at him, asking him what he was thinking, and if all of his promises meant absolutly nothing at him. If my heart, and all of my love meant nothing that whole time. But instead I just stood there frozen and speechless like an idiot as he hesitantly threw his arms around my waist. I did not move, just stood there, looking at the girl he was with that slowly walked forward, and stared me in the eyes. Her eyes were also red, her hair blond, but almost as white as her skin, flowing down near her feet. Her figure was just as small as mine, and she wore a pleated long-sleeved dress that dropped down to her knee's.
"Is this..Rin, Tsukai?"
Tsukai released his hug, then looked me in the eyes for a moment with a guilty smile, then looked back at the girl.
"Yea.." He paused then looked back at me. "This is Kesemei."
"Oh.." I mumbled.
Tsukai abruptly took my arm, and drug me over to the lantern that him and the girl had been standing by.
"Rin..Im-"
"Its, fine. You found someone else. You dont have to explain." I managed to mumble, then burst into sobbing as I turned my back, and began to walk away. Tsukai caught my shoulder, and spun me back around.
I couldnt get over how much I missed his deep eyes, his calm and warm face..
All I seen now was a blur of colors through my tears. I felt his arms wrap gently around my waist holding me close to him as I sobbed.
"Im really sorry Rineco. I still love you, and I'v missed you. Its just, I found someone else...and Im really sorry for breaking my promises, for hurting you like this." Tsukai looked ahead, studying Yoru for a moment. "Did, you find someone too?"
I pushed away from his arms and stared him deeply in the eyes. "Hell no! Yoru is a friend, only here to help me, becuase I have to completly put everything back the way that it had used to be. And also no, because I promised that I would always love you, always be yours, even in the afterlife. Im sorry that I hadnt died sooner, then maybe I could have kept your heart, and maybe you would have kept your promises. Im ******** sorry that it took this long, and Im sorry for disturbing you, and your girlfriend. Bye Tsukai." I yelled through sobs, and started running, following the dirt path through the village. I heard more footsteps behind me as I ran, but I had no cares on who they were. I didnt want to talk to anyone right now, just be alone, and soak in my own missery, my own stupidity for trusting someone that much, and giving absolutly everything I had to them, for giveing my life and heart away when he wasnt reliable enough to keep it safe from harm.
I closed my eyes, and suddenly felt a feeling of dropping. My feet went out from underneath me, and I skidded across the rough earth.
"Rin!" Yoru's voice whispered in my ear. I kept my eyes closed, and continued sobbing.
How funny this almost seemed. The one who I had trusted the most, and loved, is the one who crushed me in the end. The one who seemed to be my enemy, is the one who actually did love me, and was the one holding and trying to comfort me now. Love was sure a confuseing thing.
It also seemed funny that I thought I would never have to go through this. God, I probably looked like a complete baby right then, crying my eyes out over some guy that I had loved, and was so infatuated with for years. But I couldnt seem to hold back the tears, they just continued coming like a broken faucet.
"Its alright Rineco, I am here for you.." Yoru whispered soothenly in my right ear, rubbing his hand up and down my back.
Maybe Yoru really was a good guy inside, maybe he really did love me..
and maybe I did back a little too.
heh. Yes, what a funny thing love is.
"Damn it!" Yoru cursed, and lifted me up. I opened my tear filled eyes to the sight of two figures.
Why were they even here. Why didnt they just leave and go on with their happy lives. It would make things easier. My feet suddenly touched the ground, making me hug onto Yoru's arm, still sobbing, and unstable.
"Rin, they are underKaruki's spell now."
"Hmm.." I opened my eyes, and let my vision clear some. He was right, there faces seemed darkned with a burning, and blood lusting anger.
"Wh-they werent like that before.." I mumbled under my breath.
"Yea, Karuki's spell cant set in at different times. Either way they were still under the spell of following Karuki, but they were thinking as themselfs. Their brains must have put together on what you meant by "putting everything back the way it had used to be," and thought that as a threat against Karuki-in which it was." He paused. "We have to kill them." Before I could object, he pushed something into my hands. "That is a special dagger too. It will kill them, they will be no longer, and you will gain power. That is the only way to release them from Karuki's spell, I know its a shame though that you have to permanetly end their lives, but we dont have a choice. Being under Karuki's spell, they have power, and a tracking device implanted in their heads in a way. They will follow us, and continuously attack. I know you dont want to do this, but you dont have a choice now. I'll take care of your ex', you get his girl."
Yoru bolted out towards Tsukai.
"Yoru!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. The pain in my heart seemed to increase. He was about to kill the one I still loved, who used to be mine. I never wanted to speak to Tsukai again, but I never wanted him to die- permantly; and I especially didnt want to watch him die again.
"Ahh!" I mumbled in surprise as Kesemei sprinted up to me, throwing her fists into my stomach, and making me fly to the ground. I moaned, and opened my eyes to the sight of her raceing back to me. I jumped up just in time to dodge her attack. We were now standing face to face, being about twelve foot away from eachother. I could feel a growl erupting from my throat. I was pissed off now.
I lunged forward at her, dagger in hand. We seemed to be danceing around in circles for about five minutes, nothing but a quick flurry of movement's and dodgeing attacks from one another. I could feel my anger riseing, turning into burning rage. I was tired of messing with her now. I felt burning through the veins in my wrists, pumping rapidly into the palms of my hands. This energy released with a small orb of light, that I pushed into her with a quick and percise movement. She flew to the ground, and lay there for a moment, her eyes closed, but taking in quick breathes of air. This gave me just enough time. I smiled crookedly, lungeing at her with the dagger, and sticking deeply into her chest. Her eyes opened, shocked and locking with mine, then flashing to a purplish color. Her arms flailed for a moment, as she struggled to move, gasping frantically for the air she was loseing. Her hands rested on the dagger, trembleing, her eyes filling with tears, which followed by a scream that was almost deafening. She struggled for a moment, tears running down her face, mixing with the dirt from the collision that she had just taken with the ground. She continued to stare at me, her mouth open slighly, raspy slow breaths still manageing to escape. Then it stopped. She went completly limp. A blinding light suddenly escaped from her, dissapearing as it drited upto the black sky. She began to slowly disinigrate with this light. She was dissapearing from this world, from everything that she had once knew. Everything was gone now. She was gone. Forever.
I had noticed then that tears were spilling uncontrolably from my eyes. I had never wanted to do that. Maybe in my mind, yes, but in real life-never. I never wanted to destroy anyone's life, and make them dissapear, never to be again. I turned around, seeing Yoru harshly throw Tsukai to the ground, which left him momentarly stunned.
Here it comes. I thought. My ex-boyfriend's life was about to end-for a second time. Right in front of my eyes. This time, I would never see him again, he would be gone.
My feet seemed to pick up by themself's, rushing over to where Tsukai and Yoru battled. Yoru held the dagger in his hand, hovering over disoriented Tsukai with a smile.
My breath seemed lost. I couldnt say anything at that moment,along with my feet decided to stop working.This seemed like deja vu, watching my love die before my eyes; the one I had used to love. But this time, I knew I would never see him again.
Shock suddenly slapped me in the face as Yoru stabbed the dagger into Tsukai's chest, making it penetate through his skin, and his heart. But, this dagger seemed to push through my heart too. Tsukai began to do the same as his girlfriend had done.
His eyes, widening as he struggled to move, and as the shock and pain traveled to his brain. My feet finally decided to work as I crouched down by his side, my tears falling to his pale, troubled face. How I never in my life wished to do this for a second time; but I think the thought that there would be no possible third time hurt me just as much.
"Tsukai..I.." I began to mutter under my breath between sobs. I really did still love him. Tsukai's eyes flashed back to a brighter red, and his face lit up with an old crooked smile through the pain.
"Shh..it will be ok, Rin. I still love you..k?" His question ended with a scream of pain, yet his eyes stayed locked with mine, then filled with tears. He still loved me too...
"Tsukai!" I screamed also at the top of my lungs, gripping my hands on the dagger, and pulling it out with no control. I clutched my hands onto his chest, resting my hands on his chest, and listening to his last ending heartbeats.
My heart beat followed his, slowly, loudly.
"thump..."
"thump...."
"thump....."
"Tsukai.." I mumbled again between sobs. I suddenly noticed that my palms were burning, throbing. What was happening this time? Oh well. I didnt care...I didnt care about anything, or anyone else right now. My eyes closed slowly on Tsukai's face, as I drifted off to unconsciousness.
Chapter 3
I slowly had awoken in Yoru's arms. I noticed a glisen of sweat running down his arms in the hovering sunlight. Had he been carring me this whole time sense before I passed out? "Mmm.." I mumbled as I slightly moved, then looked up into Yoru's pale blue and silver eyes. His white hair covered some of his face, and was also sticking to his forehead, which also glisened from the sun. Had he not taken one break sense last night in carring me? That had to have gotten very heavy after a while. His arms tensed as he glanced down at me, his eyes sticking with mine. "Morning." He said lightly, in almost a sad way. My eyes glanced forward at the forest we were walking to, then suddenly seemed to explode with more salty tears. Tsukai was completly gone now.
"Rin, he didnt dissapear."
I did not say anything, only looked back up to his blurred face.
"Tsukai is still alive. You automatically healed him by yourself. But, still is, dead I guess. You see, when you healed him, you saved him from dissapearing, but you didnt save him from the actaul dieing part. He is dead, but he is still in this world. If we some how manage to put this world back to its old ways, he will awaken, becuase Karuki's spell would be broken. Anyone who was or is affected by Karuki's spell will become back to normal as long as they are physically here on the afterlife worlds. So, you may get to see him again."
I couldnt help but smile, and threw my arms sudddenly around Yoru's neck. I was still crying now, but in complete happiness. Atleast he was still here, I could still see him again. But at the same time, I felt horrible. The other that Tsukai had fallen in love with, he would never get to see again. I knew he wouldnt still love me, his heart had already switched to someone else. He would wake out without his love. I frowned, and wiped away my tears, then released my grip from Yoru.
"How long have you been carrying me anyways? "
"Three day's straight. Your healing him almost killed you. You did something that was nearly impossible. Your very lucky, so is Tsuaki, although he wont awaken with his "love" now will he?" A low growl escaped from his mouth. "I cant stand guys like that, that make such big promises like that, then just throwing it all away for someone else. I mean, he hadnt even died that long ago, he must have fallen for her pretty damn fast. And how long had you guys been in love for, a while right?" He yelled angrily.
I flinched. "Yea.." I paused and thought for a moment. My heart seemed crushed now, and yet I still loved him, but no longer in that same way. If he didnt love me anymore-but wait. I recalled some of his last words. That he did still love me. But how much? He cheated on me with some random girl within a few months. He must have not loved me that much. Or, maybe he meant that he loved me in a different way. Who knows? I wouldnt know for a while, so I might as well not hang myself over it. Whats gone is gone. And his love for me must have dissapeared soon after his death. I could see that he felt guilty about it, and I could feel that he still had feelings for me, but it was no where like before. Everything about him had changed. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that I didnt love him like I used to either, especially after I caught him cheating last night. Things in my heart had been changing soon after his death too. Its funny how you can fall for someone else that quickly, but how you never forget that last special person, and how those feelings still stay with you some. But maybe, it would be best if we both moved on anyways. Maybe it was good if I was falling for another, so I had someone to fall back on..
I looked into Yoru's eyes which glanced back at mine, and began to blush.
No, no I couldnt be. I looked down. Falling in love with someone that had tried to kill me, and hurt me before was the most stupid choice-
But, I guess he had done it for a reason, and atleast he did love me, and deeply by the sounds of it.
"Rineco.." His solemn voice came out in almost a whisper, but in a shy way.
s**t, here comes his questions again. But was I ready to answer his "love" questions? My mind seemed so occupied with things right now, trying to sort everything out. Love was too complicated. I sighed.
"Uh, yea?"
Yoru looked back at me in his arms. "Do you still love Tsukai..?"
I pursed my lips. One of my questions that I was truthfully confused about. I decided to let my heart take over my voice, and see what answers would come out.
"Thats a," I paused. "I dunno I guess. Yes, and no. Its not the way that it used to be for sure. I dont love him even close as I had. It hurt me a lot. I guess maybe its best if I moved on from him. I just dont know what I will do when he awakens. I..I cant get back with him though." I paused again and frowned. "I just dont have enough feelings left for him to go through that again, and I dont want to get hurt again like that. He wasnt reliable enough to keep my heart safe the first time, so Im not going to trsut him again with it. I will be his friend though. But, Maybe those feelings will change, I dont think they will, but..no. I hope that they dont." I switched my glances from the forest floor to Yoru's spakling eyes.
Yoru's lips formed into a small, hopeful smile. "Thats good." He switched his glance back ahead.
"You know, I can walk if you want."
Yoru looked back down at me. "I have you, its ok."
"Alright then.."
Yoru looked at me with a smile, then back ahead again.
Just as my mind began to fly into more questions, Yoru's voice broke the silence.
"Rineco. Will you go out with me?! I know that I have done a lot to hurt you, but, I just, I, Im completly in love with you. I promise you that I will never hurt you again, atleast not on purpose! And Im sorry for everything that I have did in the past. I really never want to hurt you again. I know you dont trust me, and this probably sounds like a huge fat lie, but Its not! I really want to prove to you that its not, and that I truly do love you...but.."
His eyes were staring deeply into mine, but almost bulgeing out of his head, filling with hope, hanging on to the next words that were going to come out of my mouth like they were either going to save him, or kill him. His muscles were all tensed, and shaking. Sadly, I almost wanted to laugh. This was another one of his cute little ways...
No! I had just gotten over Tsukai! Tsukai had even just died....no. I couldnt. It just wouldnt be right If I went out with him after all of what happened a few days ago.
But....ugh. stupid damn confusing emotions!!
I stared into his eyes again, seeing all of the hope, the love for me that rested in them. Even Tsukai hadnt given me this intense look before. Laughter suddenly escaped through my lips, and I couldnt seem to stop. At the same time, I began to read Yoru's thoughts.
Yoru
Oh no. She hates me. She still see's this as a complete joke. How stupid...I was so stupid. Everythings my fault...she hates me. Why did I even ask her.."
Escape
The laughter continued explodeing from my mouth as I looked into Yoru's eyes, my eyes watering from not being able to catch my breath.
"I will!" I managed to get out between laughs.
"What!?" Yoru's eyes bulged out even more to where I thought they were going to fall out of his head and roll across the ground. I laughed harder, and closed my eyes. Suddenly I felt my back coming in contact with the ground as Yoru dropped me accidently. I continued laughing even harder.
"Oh my ******** god! I am so sorry, oh my god! oh my god! Im sorry!" Yoru yelled frantically. I continued to laugh harder as he kneeled by me, looking down over my face.Yoru's expression was the funniest thing that I had seen in so long. His mouth was gaped open in shock, his hair completly messed up, and some of it sticking to his face, and I was still waiting for his eyes to fall out of his head, although they would fall out on me this time. ...heh.
I covered my mouth with my hand, and curled up into a ball, closeing my eyes, and taking deep slow breaths. It had been so long sense I had laughed that much. It felt good. I finally managed to stop laughing, and uncurled out of my ball, then sat up. I looked back at Yoru's face, which was now just the biggest crooked smile I had ever seen. Another giggle escaped through my lips, which I covered with my hand again for a moment.
"Y-your really serious?!" The words escaped Yoru's huge smile, completly shocked.
I took my hand off my mouth, which reveiled a smile. "Haha, yes. Im positive. I might be stupid for doing this, but you have still stayed with me, you said that you have still loved me sense you saw me. And maybe, maybe I shouldnt but I really do trust you now, and I beleive every word that you have told me." I smiled. "Just..Im trusting you a lot now..to not lie to me anymore..and to stay with me, unlike Tsukai." My smile faded slightly.
"I will never lie to you again, nor will I hurt you. If I do that, then I dont deserve you, and I will just leave. I never want to hurt you again. Everytime that I had to lie or hurt you, well, it was like I was stabbing myself. I wont do that again.." Yoru smiled, then swooped me up from the ground, holding me in his arms like a small child, and looking caringly into my eyes.
"I am forever yours now Rineco Suki." His large crooked smile returned.
"I am forever yours to Yoru." I smiled back, and cuddled into his chest. Heh..isnt that just like a fairytale?
