Fated Meeting
(Haruka's POV)
The snow slowly fall to my hands
Melting, slowly…slowly…
Everything seems so peaceful
When I turn back, I see a different world
Buildings on fire, dead bodies and smokes
I open my blue eyes quickly, I look around the room to make sure that dream is just well…a dream.
"Oi~ Haruka, what's wrong? You suddenly jump from your bed, you made me bump my head" A voice rings from below my bed and I find Mikage yawning while messing up his green hair.
"It's just a bad dream…"
"A bad dream? Is it the same as mine again?" Teito, a brown haired boy ask, his green eyes reflect the same fear as mine.
"Always~" I roll my eyes and go back to sleep.
"Oi! Don't go and sleep here! Do you remember what today is?" Mikage say, pulling my blanket.
"Ngg…Thursday?"
"No baka! Tomorrow is the graduation exam~ we need to practice for tomorrow"
"I'm still sleepy~" I yawn and lay down again
"If you won't get up…I'll kiss you~" Mikage said, leaning his face towards mine.
"Wha…. Hentai!" My face is blushing red, then, Teito fly a kick to Mikage and knock him to the floor.
"What did you do that for?!" Mikage said, holding his red cheeks because of Teito's kick.
"We agree to not do anything to her! Do you forget that promise?"
"Oh right~ Sorry Haruka-chan" Mikage smiles and pat my head. I look at him, confused and pouted.
"Well then, I call dibbs on the bathroom first!" I quickly jump from my bed and run to the bathroom. I usually take bath as quick as possible, since I'm not sharing room with Teito and Mikage only, but with other 2 boys whose name I always forget.
When I'm in the shower, I always thought the same thing every day. The fact that I forget my memory and the fact that before coming to the military academy, I'm just some kid living in the street. I ever killed someone before, well accidentally, it was when I was 10. When I was just sitting in the corner of the street, a men walk to me and offer me a candy. Of course I accept it, I was a kid who doesn't know anything then, I pass out. When I wake up, I was in a dark room. I realize then that the men is a criminal who's target are children. He will kill the children and sold their body parts. When the men hold out a knife, I don't know why, but suddenly the room went bright and the men lye on the floor lifeless, in a pool of blood. I quickly run outside. The military then thank me for my effort and offer me a full scholarship in the military academy.
When I was lost in thought, Mikage knock the door.
"Hey~ Quick!"
"Hai' hai' just a moment~" I quickly put my clothes on, I doesn't tie my long, wavy blonde hair to let it dry and get out from the bathroom.
After me, Mikage and Teito finish changing, we quickly go to class. When we get out from our room, a blushing red haired boy stands in front of the door.
"Ha…Haruka-chan, I like you since the first time we meet…will…will you be my girlfriend?"
"Ah, I'm sorry but I'm not ready yet…we're also not close, and I don't even know who you are, i'm sorry" I force a smile, I used to get these things called love confession, as Mikage told me.
"Ah! I understand, well then…thank you for hearing my request" the boy then run off to meet his friends and I can hear him cry, I sigh.
"You just break another boy's heart~" Mikage teases.
"Well, I'm sorry…"
"I remember the first time a boy confess to you, he doesn't come to school for 1 month!" Mikage laugh and I just pout. Teito seems to ignore our conversation.
On our way to class, we accidentally walk pass Shuri Oak, the most annoying brat in this school.
"Well well, what do we have here? A sklave, a butler and a pretty lady"
"Stop calling me that Shuri" I said, annoyed by the way he call me.
"What do you want me to call you then? Lovely lady?" Shuri held out his hand and bows politely in front of me.
"Stop flirting with her" Teito say, defending me from Shuri.
"And who are you protecting a pretty lady like her?"
"Come on guys, let's just leave" Mikage said, he smile towards us and the three of us walk away from Shuri.
At the class, I seat next to Teito. The teacher is currently explaining about tomorrow's exam, it seems that a high military officer will attend tomorrow's exam. The day pass quickly and the three of us get out from the class.
"Nee~ what are you guys going to do when you already become a soldier? If me, I'm going to protect my family" Mikage ask with his huge smile.
"I don't know, maybe I'll try to find out who is my family" I said looking down.
"Family huh?" Teito's eyes shows a glint of sadness but Mikage quickly cheer him up.
"I bet when we enter the military, we can find out about your family too Teito!"
Suddenly, a black shadow begin to cover the sky and a big ship, which is the military's top ship.
"Sughoi! Ne~ I hope we get to ride that sometimes" Mikage said, banging his hands to the glass wall.
"Oi Mikage, stop banging the glass, if you fall I won't help you" Teito said.
"E…evil!"
"I'm not evil, I'm just lazy to help you" the 2 of the keep on fighting and I just chuckle looking at their silly behavior.
"Hey~ You said we're going to practice"
"Right~ Then…let's go!"
The 3 of us practice our fighting skill using zaiphon. A power granted by god to each beings, whether living or not. There are 3 types of zaiphon, healing, offensive and manipulative. Healing zaiphon is considered the "softest" kind, being able to heal any injuries, and can even heal fatal injuries. Offensive zaiphon is the most common, it has an attacking ability and often used in combats. Manipulative zaiphon is the most rare, it allows the caster to controls and objects willingly. Some people can have 2 kind of zaiphon, or even 3, like me.
But, I have an interesting ability that even I don't understand. I can summon swords at will, no matter how much, I keep this ability hidden. I don't want Mikage and Teito thinks I'm different.
I launch a zaiphon towards Mikage and he gives up. Only Teito is left.
"Wahh~ this is my favorite part, seeing you 2 fight is like is seeing the military top officer fight each other"
"Shut up Mikage! Don't interfere us" Teito said. He launch a zaiphon towards me I easily dodge it. I run towards him as quick as possible and hit him with all my might. I finally able to make Teito give up.
"And the winner is….Haruka!" Mikage said, acting like an announcer.
"Wohooo!" I jump up and down, Teito just pouts.
"Well, let's sleep, tomorrow is a big day" Teito said.
"Oao, someone is getting je~~~alous~~~" Mikage mock Teito.
"What do you say?! Come here you…!" Teito chase Mikage and they both chase each other, I just look at them and smile.
(Author's POV)
The next day…..
"Alright everyone! Please form into the designed group! Hurry up please~" A middle aged woman with red hair said cheerfully.
"Oi Teito! Do you see Haruka?" Mikage said, yawning while covering his mouth.
"I only see her this morning, she told us to go first right? Maybe she's lost…"
"She's lost? Impossible~ She's already 6 years living in this building"
"Do you remember? She's bad at remembering path"
"Ah! You're right!"
"I don't expect to be at the same group with some sklave! Where's the pretty lady anyway?" Shuri said, he suddenly come out of nowhere with his 2 "friends".
"I don't have the right to tell someone who only relies on his father's name" Mikage said, pretending to yawn.
"What do you say?!"
"Team A! Hurry up and get to the stadium" The woman says still smiling, "hm… what's wrong?" the woman ask Teito and Mikage.
"Ano…one of our team member haven't arrive yet" Mikage said.
"Is it Haruka? Well, figures, she often get lost…what should we do then Miroku-sama?" the woman ask an old man standing next to her.
"I guess we have no choice but to make her do the exam on her own after her group finish"
"But isn't that unfair?" Mikage said, protesting.
"I bet Haruka only think that this exam is just a game" Miroku smirks. Mikage and Teito doesn't understand, so they just keep silent.
Then, the exam started.
While Teito and his teammates were in the middle of an exam, a group of high ranking military office comes in to the room and all the soldier quickly give them a salute. The group consist of 5 people. The shortest one wear an eye patch and have pink hair, standing next to her is a blue haired man. The tallest one wear a black sunglasses, have black hair and seems to be in his mid-thirty, standing next to him is a blonde boy, next to the blonde boy is a brown-haired man.
(Haruka's POV)
I run as fast as I can, I know I'm late already. I cursed the soldier who ask me to put some documents in the library under my breath. Because of him, I'm late and now I'm lost. I try to remember where the teacher told us the exam will be held, the only thing I remember is the fact that I sleep when the teacher explain to us.
I run and run, finally, I found a group of 5 military officer, judging from their uniform, I guess that they were high ranking. Unwilling to be late, I finally force myself to ask for help to the white haired man in front. ((e.g. this scene is before the black hawk enters the room))
"Um… excuse me sir… but do you know where the military final exam will be held?" the man look at me with sharp violet eyes, I feel completely awkward by the situation.
"Just go forward, turn left, and then turn right~" The black haired man say cheerfully. I realize the white haired man ignore me completely.
"Ah! Thank you!" I quickly run and ignore them. I go straight, turn left and stop. I forget what the black haired man said. "Damn it! Is it left or right? Left, right, left, right, left" I decide to turn left but I end up in dead end. I groan and walk back. When I turn right, I run quickly as possible and bang the door loudly.
"WAIT FOR ME!" I scream while entering, I feel rather awkward because the whole room look at me. I realize the group of people I met earlier was here too.
"Haruka-chan…why are you late?" Miroku-sama says. I run towards him, I accidentally trip and fall besides the white haired man. I blush and quickly stands up. I give him a salute and walk to Miroku-sama.
"I'm sorry, I was late because of him" I point towards the bald officer.
"What?! Me?!" The officer pretend to be innocent.
"Yes! He ask me to put the documents he was supposed to put in the library!" I pout.
"Well then, what done is done, Haruka, you will have to attend the exam by yourself"
"….eh?!"
Then, Teito and Mikage's team finish their exam. I meet up with them while the janitors clean up the stadium.
"Nee~ Haruka, you're late" Mikage said, putting his arm around my shoulder.
"Yes I know…" I pout and slap his arms off my shoulder.
"Good luck to you then~ Miroku-sama said that you need to attend the exam by yourself" Teito said, fixing his glove.
"Thank you…I guess"
"Well then! Haruka! Please enter the stadium!" The woman said.
"Stay alive Haruka~" Mikage shout from behind. I smile half-heartedly and enters the stadium.
When the cage open, I see a main with strange expression, he is bald and have many earrings.
"Well then, let's see who is your most precious person" the man tilts his head more than a normal human could. Then, the man become bigger and bigger then pops. Flesh and blood are scatter everywhere, it even sticks in my cheeks, I just stand there, doesn't understand what happen.
The whole room seems to be feeling the same, except for Miroku-sama and the white haired man. Then, from the pile of flesh, a man with purplish hair and purple eyes comes out, wearing a bishop robe. He smiles towards me, a feeling of sadness hit me, it seems like I know this person. He hold out his hand and I slowly walk towards him.
"What's wrong Haruka-chan? Onii-chan really miss you, you know?" that person's voice is soft, nice and welcoming. I almost take his hands when Mikage screams something to me "Haruka! Don't be fooled! He's not the person you know! Snap out of it!" I quickly realize it and jump back.
"What's wrong Haruka-chan?" The person tilts his head and something dark purple begin to drip from his face, half of his face is destroyed and turn into a pile of the purple stuff.
"Who are you?"
"Me? You forget me? I'm your beloved Onii-chan" that person's soft voice turn dark and scary. I jump back immediately. Soldier begin to screams "Warsfeil! He's a warsfeil! Quick! Get her out of there!" The door flew open and I try to run. But then, he cover the exit with the same purple stuff.
"You…have such a pure soul, I want to eat it" the men then run towards me and I launch a zaiphon towards him. My attempts fail, he easily erase my zaiphon. I have no more choice. I know there's many people here staring at me. I took a deep breath and summon one sword. I can feel many people starring at me now, but I ignore them.
I swing the sword and focused my eyes at my target. When I stop swinging, I throw the sword and it turn into a spear of light. This is also my special ability, I don't know why I can't do it. The spear then hits the man and it seems to injure him badly because he keeps on moaning and growling. I found a chance and run quickly towards him. I summon one more sword, wrap it with light and slice the men's body. A blinding light appears and I close my eyes.
When I open my eyes again, the purple stuff covering the stadium disappear with the flesh and blood. A burning mark was left in the pile of ash, which I assume was men's body. I cover my mouth with my hands and run outside. Tears begin to flow to my cheeks.
"Sughoi! How can you do that?" Mikage welcomed me with the usual in his face and Teito doesn't seem surprise at all.
"You guys…" I keep on crying and Mikage pats my back.
"There there~ if you're scared just tell us!"
"Ba…baka…I'm not scared" I said, pouting.
"I'm quiet surprise actually" Teito says, he fix his glove (again) and smile slightly. While we were talking, Miroku-sama, and the group of 5 people earlier walk towards us.
"I'm sorry Haruka, I didn't expect the criminal to be a warsfeil" Miroku-sama said.
"iie' it's okay Miroku-sama" I try to stop crying but I can't.
"I'm quiet impress by your ability" the white haired man says with no expression he just looks at me with the same, sharp violet eyes.
"Ya~ me too~ when I find out about you, I thought you killing the criminal back then were just a coincidence" the black haired man said, smiling. Then it hits me, when I was little, I didn't kill only 1 person, I also accidentally killed 1 innocent child. The knife that the criminal hold were thrown and hits that child's chest. The smile disappear from my face and I look down.
"I'm sorry, but I think I should go back to my room now" I said, still looking down. I know I'm crying. Miroku-sama nods and I quickly run away from the room.
