Shiba had been sitting in her room ever since they returned from the mission, to save her father, which had been a failure, and it had failed right before her eyes. "eh…shiba are you alright?"Lenalee asked looking at the black haired girl with the photo in her hands staring solemnly at it.
Shiba turned to lenalee and sighed, her eyes betrayed the mask she had placed on her face. " fine…is there something you needed?"Shiba asked looking at the green haired girl.
"I just came to see if you were alright...I mean you have lost so much already…"lenalee said ,frowning at the nineteen year old girl who just looked down.
Shiba looked down towards the floor and sighed. 'my father is gone…my mother is gone…I have nothing more but the order and tyki…'she thought and her eyes slid shut and she sighed.
"I know how it is…."lenalee started, a grim look settling on her face. "to lose both parents…I mean. Komui and I lost ours in an akuma attack when we where little..." she said and shiba nodded.
"don't tell anyone where im going…I have to see him..i have to talk to tyki.."She said and lenalee nodded, she was the only one who knew how shiba felt about the Noah, and she wasn't about to betray her friend and tell her brother.
Only lenalee knew why she felt the way she did about the Noah, she may not approve of it but it wasn't her choice to say anything about what reason her friend had for such feelings.
"I won't I promise…you need your time and space and I will gladly give that to you. You are my friend after all. Just don't do anything reckless, ok?"Lenalee said and hugged her friend tightly, the notion surprised shiba momentarily then she hugged the green haired girl back.
"I promise I won't do anything too brash." Shiba said and walked over to her window and her finders coat within numb fingertips. She sighed one last time before turning to her friend.
"I saw the determination in my father's eyes as the life faded from them. He was strong till the end. It makes me wonder if I will ever fulfill my purpose or be as strong as he was." she said he eyes glistening unshed tears.
"you will fulfill your purpose. I promise you that. You are already as strong as your father was, both mentally and physically. Just keep moving forward and you will become stronger." Lenalee said smiling brightly at her friend.
Shiba nodded slowly, her eyes slid shut and she walked to the window and opened it. She smiled her fake smile that masked her pain then she jumped out of the window.
She embraced the weightless feeling falling gave her and she felt the tears begin to streak down her face as she fell. She couldn't help but wonder how it felt to die…was it painful? Was it fast? Or was it just nothingness in eternity?
She landed in the top of a tree then she hit the ground, leaving a crater in the ground. she stood up then ran through the forest surrounding the order then skidded to a stop at the bridge. She took a deep breath and dove over the edge, her lightning sparking around her and forming a form of electric barrier for when she hit the ground.
"What the-! Allen what do you think that is?" lavi asked seeing a bright flash of light streak downwards from the cliff. Allen nodded.
"that's a special ability of shiba's innocence. It forms a barrier around her so she won't get hurt if she falls. She has a habit of jumping and it seems it calms her. The wind rushes by and she is at peace. We still need to go see if she is ok though. She might deactivate zeus and try to kill herself. Especially after everything she has been through. You witnessed what the Noah did too. It was cruel and heartless. You also saw the way she reacted when they killed him. She became emotionless and didn't care who she hurt. She almost decapitated me with her ball of electricity." Allen said and watched for lavi's reaction.
Lavi frowned and nodded. The girl has been through quite a bit she was one of them and they needed to make sure she was ok.
Allen frowned and they took off running towards the spot they saw the light vanish to. Allen ran right out into the open and he collided with a taller figure.
Lavi followed him out and his eyes widened. "ALLEN! Get over here now!" he yelled seeing the face of the taller man.
Allen stumbled backwards and hit the ground his eyes wide with surprise. "tyki mikk… what are you doing here?" Allen asked, struggling to his feet.
Tyki mikk tipped his hat politely. "Allen. Lavi. I do not wish to quarrel, I have only come here to speak with someone. And since that someone is neither you nor you. I shall take my leave. I will take my leave soon after I speak with that certain someone. Goodbye, exorcists." Tyki mikk said and walked away, leaving lavi and allen glaring at his retreating form.
Lavi shrugged then turned to allen. "come on lets go see if we can find shiba." He said and allen nodded and followed behind his friend.
Shiba hit the ground and her innocence deactivated and the light vanished in a spiral around her. She analyzed her surroundings to make sure there weren't any akuma or exorcists around.
She stared up to the sky and saw dark clouds in the midnight sky and she smiled gently. She heard a twig snap and she spun, her lightning blade solidifying on her arms. Her arms looked like fou's when she fought.
She jumped towards the figure concealed in the darkness of the tree line, her bladed arms at the figures neck and sparking with electricity.
She looked up with narrowed, menacing eyes. She looked at the figure and sweat dropped. It was tyki mikk and he had his hands up defensively. His eyes were wide and his hat was about to fall from his head. He had a slightly frightened twitch to his lips.
She sighed and hr arms dropped the blades turning to dust as the fell to her hips. She looked up at him with tears n her eyes. She hugged him tightly and began to silently cry into his chest.
Tyki hugged the crying girl back. "what's got you so down now, shiba-hime?" tyki asked the crying girl, softly running his hand through her long black hair.
"I want revenge that I cant get. I need help tyki. Please help me." shiba said, her eyes watering more. Tyki sighed and shook his head.
"I cant do that." he said. The tears spilled over her cheeks and she fell to her knees. She looked up at him with the face of a kicked puppy.
He felt so bad then. He really didn't want to have to tell her what he had to do then. "we both want something that is both insane and impossible. I want freedom and you want revenge. We cant get what we want. We are only the pawns of the world. Im sorry shiba..this will be the last time you see me. I have to go now. Goodbye hime. Be safe." Tyki said and shiba's eyes went wide.
Her resolve broke and she felt as if the world were ending as she watched him walk away. Everything was moving so slow… which made everything hurt even worse.
When tyki was gone she saw lightning flash, thunder boom and she watched as her outstretched hand began to shake, knowing it had failed in grasping the man's coat and pulling him back to her broken embrace.
"t-tyki…n-no! you cant leave me too! Its not fair! You were there when they both left me! You cant leave me too…I will break…" she whimpered and she saw a flash of white and red then she saw lenalee and she could faintly make out allen and lavi's faces also.
All was silent except to the mumbles of lenalee, allen, and lavi's yells. All she heard were mumbles, mumbles falling upon deaf ears.
Lenalee's worried face was in front of hers and lenalee was crying. Shiba could faintly make out the questions they were asking… but not quite enough to answer them, so she said the one thing she knew that lenalee would understand.
"he's gone… he left me too." Shiba said then she saw lenalee's eyes widen drastically. Tears fell from her friend's eyes and she hugged her tightly.
'why must it end like this? Why must everyone I care about leave me?' shiba thought tears streaking down her face.
