Hello! So…how's it going? Oh me? Haha, well I'm updating this story, when I'm supposed to be updating a different story. T_T This is the only story I have inspiration for at the moment, so here I am! I got three reviews on the first chapter ^-^ Thanks to Wheelchairmaniac99, Wolflover17, MusicOfMadness. You all have my love forever ^-^
Hot. The sun beats down on our backs as we trek through the desert. I cling to Ara's muscular back, so the sweat wouldn't cause me to slip off. He and Eri both shed their ripped and dirty shirts a few hours ago, and I am only left in a dirty tank-top and my shorts. I place my chin on his left shoulder and close my eyes for a minute. Images of him flash through my mind. Maybe it's knowing that in a few hours' time, I will be standing face to face with the man who tortured me for years. An involuntary shiver goes through my body and Ara stops to look at me. He sees the slight fear in my eyes, and Eri sees it when he glances back to see why his brother stopped walking.
"Are you sure you want to do this Miyu?" Eri asks me with concern clear on his face. Eri and Ara are both a year older than me, so they consider me their little sister. I don't completely know their family history, but what they have told me is that they used to have a younger sister. I've never dug deeper than that.
"It has to be done Eri. I need to face my fears." I say, not meeting his eyes. He continues to gaze at me, but after a minute continues to walk. Ara looks at me for a second, before following his brother. Eri and Arashi are twins to be exact. The only difference between the two is that Eri wears glasses, where Ara wears contacts.
Their personalities are completely opposite too. While Ara is sarcastic and hot-headed, Eri is cool and clever. Really, the only trait they have in common is that they are very protective. I tend to call them my 'protectors' because they don't allow me to be hurt. Whenever we battle, they will willingly take blow after blow for me. That was my main reason for getting stronger.
When I first met Ara and Eri…I was weak. Later, they told me that's why they chose me as their miester. Back then I was…afraid. I didn't get close to people because of my brother. It took me months until I fully trusted them, and then, there is still a seed of doubt in my heart. A seed that I'm sure will never die because of what he put me through. I've heard the excuses, he was crazy. That means nothing to me. He did what he did, and I can never forgive him for that.
"How much longer?" Ara whines and Eri glances at us and rolls his eyes.
"We still have a few hours, and Miyu, I'm sure you can walk by now." Eri says with an amused smile. I pout at him and nuzzle my nose in Ara's neck.
"Aw, but I'm sure Ara doesn't mind carrying me." I say and without even looking I know Eri rolled is eyes. I grin and it feels…normal. Sure, we're in the middle of the desert, but it feels like it did before it happened. It feels like it used to when Ari would pester me about what was for dinner, and Eri would lounge around reading some intellectual book he found. Soon, I find myself drifting to sleep, and for once, he doesn't plague them.
OoOoOoOoOo
Third Person PoV
"I don't think she should be doing this." Eri says when he notices Miyuki has drifted to sleep. Eri, just like Arashi, is extremely protective of Miyuki. There's not telling the stress seeing that bastard would cause.
"For once I agree with you." Arashi says with a rare serious look on his face. He wanted to kill Stein when he found out the torture Miyuki was undergoing. She stopped him though.
"We could prepare a luxurious living arrangement for her. She would never have to lift a finger and we could live in peace." Eri says with a sigh as he looks at the white haired girl he would give his own life for.
"That wouldn't fly with her though. She's too independent to be waited on hand and foot. Besides, she's just not the type of girl who can disappear." Ara says with a sigh. There's no telling how many people will be sent after her.
"Well, all we can do is protect her the best we can. However, I have a feeling the anguish she will feel at this school, might be enough to crush her all together." Eri says and exchanges a meaningful glance with his brother, before looking at the rare sight of a peaceful girl. Who at the moment, can be at ease.
That has tp be the shortest chapter I've ever written o.o I just feel that if I add more it will ruin the chapter . I hope you enjoyes :D
