Chapter 3- Forgive
It was her fault.
Her fault that Irene became like this.
Her fault that Irene died.
She should have known.
Should have known that the Schiff were bred out of Diva's blood.
Diva's blood.
Not hers.
She had known that Kai had some feelings for Irene,
So she wanted to help them.
But how was she to soon know,
Her blood was instead a curse to Irene?
Her reasoning side was telling her it wasn't her fault.
Her unreasonable side was telling her that she knew all this while that she and Diva were opposites.
That's right, opposites.
Diva's blood could kill those bearing her blood,
While her blood could kill those bearing Diva's blood.
A shadow slipped past her.
She looked up.
It was Kai.
"I'm going out."
That was all he said.
He wouldn't look at her in the eye,
Nor just turn to face her.
It took so much effort not to cry.
She remembered his stricken face as Irene crystallized,
After drinking her blood.
She remembered the way Kai had pleaded with her just to save Irene.
She had obliged, and the results?
He and Irene could have had a future together.
Yet…
She had been to the one to destroy that future.
The future that a Schiff and Human could have together,
Not being enemies,
But just any normal couple in love.
And she had destroyed it,
Not with her hands, but with her blood.
Her blood,
A mark of a curse that could kill, and a mark of gift that could save lives,
Yet doom them to eternal pain and immortality.
Later as she left the shelter they were in,
Breaking down as her Chevaliers comforted her,
Despite Riku's and Haji's assurance that this was not her fault,
Deep inside,
She knew even though she and Kai would make up,
That he would forgive her for Irene's death,
The lingering question…
Would she be able to forgive herself?
