I'm sorry it's short...I hate short stories...it's also really crappy...sorry!

Denial

They say I'm evil. They say I'm cruel. They say I don't care.

What they say is wrong.

Why don't they understand?

He is in denial.

He won't believe I'm here.

So that's why I ignore him.

When I came from the Ring, the first thing I saw was this light, light that consumed me and warmed me. Wonderful.

But then I saw the beauty of the light; soft white hair, big green eyes, flawless skin.

He turned away.

I am eternally grateful to my hikari for releasing me. I always will.

Yes, I know he's there. Yes, I care. That's why I act as though I don't.

He doesn't want me. He wants me to go away. So I allow him his ignorance, no matter how much it hurts me.

It's the last thing I can do for him.

I must get my revenge. I must.

It's boiling in my blood, it won't leave me alone. It's the only thing I'm here for.

But...

But they all say I'm hurting him.

Kuru Eruna...

I don't understand. I must get revenge, but I have to protect my hikari to the best of my abilities.

Yet...

Yet.

Why can't I do both at once?

Is Ra cursing me for defying him for so long?

Or...

Do I need to choose?

Do I need to pick between my hikari and my revenge?

Oh Ra I hope not.

I hope not.

Because...

...I...

...I don't know...

...which one I would choose...

Review Please!
