It is time to end this.
I charge at him. I'm still too fast for my dear
Prey. I'm sure of that.
His loose bandages are flying around me, revealing
his right eye.
The same eye as mine. Milky-white.
He looks at me with a very determined expression.
I can literally see his glowing power, ready to
obey his every command.
But I am the Sakurazukamori. I simply would kill
him, here and now. End of story.
As I prepare my final blow, I remember a similar
event in my mind. The same, albeit younger and
more effeminate, face. The white shikifuku.
Hokuto-chan. And her final Spell.
Vividly, I recall her words.
::I won't let you hurt Subaru, Sei-chan.
Ever.::
My dear girl, what can you do now that I'm ready
to kill your precious otouto?
Goodbye, Subaru-kun.
Before he has a chance to react, I have seized
his body with my right hand. Raising my left hand
to deliver my trademark blow, I give Subaru-kun
a final smile.
He gasps and shuts his eyes tightly, power flaring
around him in instincts.
I strike.
A bright light blinds my vision and instantly, I
close my eyes.
A tinkling laughter surprises me. That familiar
laugh! It couldn't be--?
::I've told you that I wouldn't let you
hurt Subaru, Sei-chan!:: the transparent figure of
Hokuto-chan says merrily.
"Hokuto-chan?" I ask in disbelief.
She gives me a patient look, ::Well, whom
do you expect? The Dark Kamui?::
"What do you--?" I just couldn't think
coherently, a pained sensation suddenly shooting
through my body.
::My last Spell, remember?:: she shakes
her index finger in front of my face.
I feel dizzy and I try to focus on to her,
"You meant--"
::Whatever you try to do to my brother
when you intend to kill him,:: her voice turns
dead serious, ::will reverse back to you for the
result.::
Ah... so that means--
"I see," I have to laugh at the irony,
"You're a very smart girl, aren't you? Well, I
guess I'd be joining you here in a few moments,
wouldn't I?"
She smiles sweetly, ::I'd be waiting,
Sei-chan.::
I drop down on my knees as I feel a brutal force
striking my body. I clutch Subaru-kun's coat,
smelling his familiar scent.
I smile at him. He couldn't seem to comprehend
what just had happened. He just killed me.
Nothing more, nothing less.
"Subaru-kun," I struggle to speak, such
a futile effort now.
His frail arms encircle me and I feel him
trembling hysterically.
"Seishirou-san...," he chokes.
"Your sister--," I cough blood, my eyes
starting to glaze over, my body getting colder
by every second, "I... I have to salute... her
for... for this perfectly... woven Spell...
Flawless--"
I take a deep breath and gather my last strength,
pulling him closer to me. Closer and closer, so
my lips brush his ear.
I chuckle, and with my last breath, I
whisper to him, "You've won... I--"
My eyes close involuntarily and I feel myself
falling on to the solid ground. Dimly, I hear
a cheerful laugh and I smile for the final time.
::Subaru-kun, I lo--::
~ owari ~
Notes:
I tried not to make this angsty.
Seishirou-san, you at least deserve this kind
of ending, IMHO.
C & C, please?
