Chapter Ten
Everyone stared with wide-eyes at Sho who was gritting his teeth in anger and fighting against tears that were threatening to spill out. "Sho..." murmured Judai as he took several steps back. Sho glared at him with watery silver-blue eyes. He replied, "What?" "Why didn't you come to any of us?" whispered Judai in disbelief. Sho said nothing and looked away. He closed his eyes tight and tears spilled. Everyone was completely shocked when they saw the tears. Johan slowly released Sho whose arms just fell by his side. "I didn't come to you because I can't. I made the deal by then," muttered Sho as the tears finally stopped. Jim asked, "What do you mean?" Sho stepped away from the group and hung his head. He replied, "I made the deal with the Lord of Hell shortly after Judai betrayed me. I can't become close to you anymore." O'Brien's eyes widened in realization. "You two made a deal that concerned all of us didn't you?" he asked. Sho reluctantly nodded. Toushiro asked, "What deal?" Sho looked at everyone and answered, "It's like this. I promised him that I'll get rid of the evil duel spirits that roams around here and send their souls to another place. He will make sure no harm comes to any of you. To make things worst or interesting, I was given the powers to cut off any kind of connection towards me. No one or no thing will come after you. Also, if he dies, I die, but if I die, you die." Everyone's eyes widened.
Fubuki asked, "You made a bet on our lives too?" Sho shook his head. He said, "Go home now. Don't follow me anymore." His eyes widened when he felt someone hugging him from behind. "We're not going to leave you Sho. I thought we made that clear already," murmured Johan. Sho struggled but Johan held on to him tighter. "Johan! Let go!" yelled Sho. However, the taller boy didn't let go. Ryo thought for a moment and sighed. He looked at Johan and reluctantly said, "Kiss him." "WHAT?!" yelled Toushiro, Fubuki, Kenzan, Judai, Edo, Johan, Jim, Sho, and O'Brien; eyes staring at disbelief at Ryo who sweat-dropped.
He replied, "Just do it." Johan sighed and turned Sho around. The blunette's eyes widened when Johan kissed him. Silver orbs became dazed and closed tightly. Johan released Sho to find out that the blunette had grown unconscious. Everyone blinked. "What just happened?" asked Edo; silently wishing to kill Johan right then and there. He wanted to be the one that gets Sho's second kiss!! Curse you Marufuji Ryo! Ryo replied, "Sho said that he can't become close to anybody. So, I figured a kiss would cause him to collapse. He's too into darkness to accept any feelings from anybody." He shrugged but was mentally slapping himself for thinking such an idiotic idea! Johan put Sho on his back and noticed that his sword was slowly disappearing. 'What's going on?' he thought.
Edo noticed too and said, "Let's go. We don't know if that Yang thing will return." Everyone nodded and followed Toushiro back to his hut. Yuumei punched a mirror, shattering it, as he watched the recent event. 'How can this have happened?!' he thought angrily. This was not according to his plan! He would have to fight Sho soon and he knew. If Sho finds someone to love then it'll be over for the both of them. He had to get them separated quickly before Sho gets really attached to them. It never was pleasant and he can't let Yubel know. He ran a hand through his hair. "Shimatta," he whispered to himself.
Toushiro watched as Rei rest before turning his gaze. Everyone especially Ryo, Johan, and Edo were watching Sho who was still unconscious. "You guys thirsty or something?" asked Toushiro. Kenzan replied, "Sure. Water." He blushed when O'Brien put an arm around his shoulders. Jim's eyes were beginning to twitch. Toushiro smiled and nodded. He stood up and left the hut. Johan sighed when Edo asked, "Now that I remember...how did you get back here Johan?" Everyone except Ryo immediately looked at the European.
Johan rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly and replied, "Sho saved me before any of those duel spirits could kill me." The gang (except Ryo) widened their eyes. That is, until they heard a groan. They turned to see Sho waking up. His eyes opened and noticed everyone. He sat up quickly and looked around. "Something wrong Sho?" asked Johan. Sho replied, "Nothing." Johan sighed and said, "Well...are you thirsty?" Sho shook his head but Edo noticed that his eyes were slowly starting to turn red with blood lust. He sighed and took Sho's head. "Come with me," he demanded gently and dragged Sho off somewhere. Everyone blinked in confusion. Hell Kaiser sighed and rubbed his temples. "I have a bad feeling about this," Ryo murmured. His cobalt eyes were slowly changing to to a light blue color.
Edo forced Sho to sit down who was giving him a curious look. "What do you want Edo?" asked Sho. Edo replied, "I know that you're thirsty for blood." "It's not that serious. It comes and goes," retorted Sho. Edo sighed and said, "Well...I'll let you drink my blood." Sho's eyes widened and he looked at him. He quickly shook his head. Edo replied, "You have to. I know you can't live without it. You survived from the Duel Spirit souls but you haven't killed one in a while now. You have to. Please." Sho was shocked when he noticed that Edo was actually pleading to him. He finally sighed and nodded. Edo smiled and held out his wrist. Sho grabbed his wrist and sunk his fangs into it.
Edo hissed in pain when he felt Sho's tongue brushing against his skin intending to numb the pain. He sighed in pleasure as Sho continued to drink his blood. Sho finally released Edo's wrist and was about to wipe the blood off of his mouth when he felt Edo's lips on his. Sho's eyes widened. Then he felt Edo's tongue brushing against his lips as if asking for entrance. "Sho?! Edo!" Sho pushed Edo back and looked to see Johan. Sho's eyes widened further when he saw that Johan's eyes beginning to water. "Johan," he murmured. The European gave them a crooked smile and said, "Looks like I was interrupting something." Sho glanced back at Edo over his shoulder and shook his head. "It's nothing. I'm gonna go wash up," retorted Sho as he left leaving the two boys alone. Johan glared at Edo who smirked. "Do you always have to do something when the two of you are alone?" hissed Johan angrily. Edo smirked wider.
"What? I'm not the only one who's going after Sho. You know that," retorted Edo crossing his arms. Johan glared at him harder until they heard a roar.
Sho splashed water on his face causing the remain blood to disappear. He watched as the water began to turn light red when he heard the roar. His eyes widened. Sho looked up to see a grey dragon with black wings. It's eyes were multi-colored and it looked like the dragon just came back from Hell since it was all in bones. Sho felt a shudder go down his spine. He quickly ran back to the others. He burst through the door to see everyone giving him shocked looks. Sho said, "I want all of you to hide." "Why?" asked Jim. The younger Marufuji replied, "Just do it. If she sees you then it's over." He held out his hand and his nodachi appeared. Toushiro asked, "Who is this she?" "Don't worry about it and just stay here!" demanded Sho as he left the hut. The door instantly slammed after Sho left. Judai ran towards the door and tried to open it but it was proved useless.
"SHO!!" yelled Judai as he slammed on the door. Sho looked at the door that now bears a dragon symbol on it. 'Gomenasai Judai,' thought Sho before he ran towards to the dragon. Judai fell down to his knees. He had to apologize to Sho. Why didn't he do that before? Judai gave out a strangled cry. "Aniki," muttered Kenzan. Jim and O'Brien glanced at each other. Edo and Ryo glanced at each other. Ryo nodded. Edo said, "Looks like we can't do anything now. We have to depend on Sho." "The Lost Faith is doing his job as he was intended. We can't do anything," said a soft voice. Eyes wide, everyone turned to see Rei sitting up. She looked at everyone. Ryo asked, "What do you mean?" Rei looked down. She replied, "The Lord of Hell or Yuumei, as Sho calls him, told me everything. He told me that Sho wasn't meant to fall in love. His heart is filled with sadness that he wouldn't want to love. Everyone here has lost faith. Sho is that faith. He is the only one that can defeat Yuumei and if he can, then Yubel also." Everyone's eyes widened. Judai was the one that was completely shocked. 'Yubel?' he thought.
(Flashback)
"Nani?!" exclaimed Judai as everyone arrived back at Duel Academia without Johan. Everyone looked at each other worriedly as Judai started to go berserk. "Wakarimasen. How did this happen?" asked Judai to himself. Sho was leaning against the wall and heard everything. He shut his eyes tight as Judai kept on talking about Johan. 'This feeling...it's different,' thought Sho. He remembered what Johan said to him in his dreams before they returned.
"Sayonara Sho. Onegai. Take care of Judai for me," smiled Johan. Sho nodded reluctantly until he felt Johan kiss his cheek. The European pulled back and smiled. "Arigatou."
Sho ran a hand through his hair. He can't let Judai know that he was the one that had contact with Johan. Sho quickly left. 'I wanted nothing to do with this. However, I fear that is too late,' thought Sho. As he continued to walk, he missed someone looking at him. That person was Saotome Rei. "Sho-kun...what's bothering you," she muttered.
(End of Flashback)
Sho quickly dodged as beams of darkness came crashing down. He glared at the bird that gave him a cruel look. It screeched and send another beam of darkness. Sho dodged it and two wings came out from his back. He took out a card and said, "I summon Cyber Dark Twilight!" Then appeared a cyber dragon that was golden. 'Let's hope I can survive through this,' thought Sho.
