Chapter 10: Enough

Yumoto groaned in pain as he was in bed and Araki was pacing throughout the room, "That stupid Kiryoku, using me as a filler object."

Yumoto looked at him, "Ara-Araki-kun…"

Araki turned to him, "I'm sorry…I'm sorry that I'm the cause of this."

Yumoto frowned, "No, no…"

Araki clutched his hand into a fist as his eyes flashed red for a moment. "I won't let her near you again…I won't let anyone near you."

Yumoto looked at him, "Araki, stop it!"

Araki looked at him, "No! You've been hurt and I will stop Kiryoku myself!"

Yumoto tried to sit up but fell back just as fast. He whimpered and Araki kissed him, "Sleep, I will go to her and you must stay home."

Yumoto looked at Araki, "She…she will take you from me! You will not leave me ever!" Yumoto hissed and slapped Araki across the face. "You left me before and look at what she did to you!"

Araki froze and Yumoto kissed him quickly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Araki held Yumoto's face to his and Yumoto let tears fall, "Sta-stay with me…! I-I slapped you be-because you were going to leave me!"

Araki kissed him, "I know, I know, I'm such a goddamn idiot."

"You may claim you are…but you're my idiot."

Araki began to laugh, "H-how cheesy."

Yumoto giggled and Araki looked up as he heard footsteps. Yuji stood there and frowned, "Your majesty…your brother is meeting up with the God of Truth about what happened to your old robe."

Yumoto blushed, "O-oh…would you believe that it caught fire?"

Yuji stared at him, "It what?"

"A fire from a demon caught my robe on fire and then the God of Truth made me a new one…"

Yuji sighed, "Alright.."

-

Kiryoku growled as she watched Araki, "Lord Tungsten…how I want you so badly."

She groaned as she saw the duo tucking the two boys into bed, "Wait…" she froze and smirked, "Lord Tungsten has two children!"

She looked at Yumoto stroking Haruki's hair, "I will take one of them…and get them to turn against them!"

She laughed loudly as Hiroki spoke, "Thank you, papa."

"That boy…born of the essence of the Sparta Nytes!"

"Sparta Nytes?" Jin frowned and Kiryoku smiled, "The Sparta Nytes kidnapped the heir…they are a tribe of children, but their leader Tachi is eighteen. He took the heir and controlled Tungsten and they gave the heir a drug. The heir fought but alas, he somehow had that child."

Jin frowned, "So…?"

"The Sparta Nyte child…is also a God…and I want him to kill the heir."

"How?"

"Why…I will bring him here…and he will be under my control."

Jin smirked and Kiryoku watched as Yumoto and Araki left. "I will go now…and take the boy!"

-

"Masuru!" Haruki frowned, "I want Kitsune! Something is wrong!"

Masuru turned around and frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Hiroki…he's not okay! Mama!" Haruki began to cry and Hiroki groaned, "Haruki, I'm fine!"

He sighed as Haruki spoke, "But Hiroki!"

Hiroki sighed once more, "I know that stupid Kiryoku wants to take me away…and even so, I'm stronger than her."

Masuru looked around at a mirror, "Masters Haruki and Hiroki…I will take you to your parents."

Hiroki sighed and Kitsune ran in, "Wait! We can take them, Masuru, you must fend off Kiryoku if she comes!"

Carbon looked at her, "Kitsune, how do we know?"

"I know, because I heard her." Hiroki said, "She was talking to me, trying to say my papa didn't love me but I know that's a lie."

"Yeah!" Rider smiled and looked at Park, "Let's go get Kiryoku so she stays away from our little gem!"

Haruki giggled as Rider put a hand on his head and Hiroki sighed, "I'm jealous…why don't I have guardians?"

"You almost did…these five guys came a few weeks ago, but your mama made them leave."

"Why?"

"They were rude." Carbon scoffed, "Telling the God of Love and Light that he was wrong. How dare they talk to royalty like that."

"Exactly." Rider replied and Hiroki groaned, "I hate being a prince."

"Even as the Nytes you'd still be a prince and heir."

"I know…"

Kitsune picked Haruki up and smiled, "Citrine, you're sleepy aren't you?"

"Yeah…"

Kitsune stroked his hair, "Come on Carbon…let's go take him to sleep in the study while Kiryoku is about. Rider, Park, take care of Hiroki."

Hiroki sighed as Rider spoke, "So, would you work with Kiryoku?"

"No…I love papa."

"Do you love your mama?"

"…yes…of course I do. Even if mama took me from my lands."

"No, your mama did not, you would have been used there."

Hiroki sighed, "Well…mommy doesn't need me here…" he growled and Park gasped as Kiryoku appeared beside him, "Yes, little Hiroki…fight your mama."

Hiroki smirked as his reddish eyes began to glow slightly. "Oh shit!" Rider cursed, "Go get Scarlet! I'll try to stop her! Masuru!" He called and Masuru came running out with a katana in hand, "Kiryoku!"

Kiryoku smirked, "You're too late, for Hiroki just wants to get rid of his mama."

Hiroki smirked and he called out, "Oh mommy…I want you!"

"Hiroki!" Yumoto's voice called and Hiroki ran out, "Mommy…" he hissed and Yumoto froze as he saw Hiroki, "Daddy doesn't like you anymore!"

Yumoto gasped out, and Masuru ran in, "Kiryoku has him under a spell, your majesty!"

Yumoto nodded and Haruki ran in as he heard them, "Hiroki!" He cried and transformed, "The Golden Prince, Battle Lover Citrine!"

Citrine frowned, "Hiroki, wake up! That mean lady who wants papa is wanting to hurt you!"

"Never! I want to be like you…a Battle Lover but I can't since I am a Sparta Nyte!"

"You can too!" Citrine cried, "Just awaken your love crystal like I somehow did!"

Hiroki growled and a sword appeared in his hands. "I don't care! I'll get rid of mommy and then I'll be happy!"

"Mommy?"

"Mommy sounds creepier, okay!?"

"Does not!"

"Yes! Once I get rid of mommy, daddy can be alone and then daddy can rule the world!"

"Okay, okay, Hiroki, mommy and daddy does not sound scary!"

Hiroki groaned, "FINE! If I kill mama, then papa can take the world and we can rule with Hireashi!"

"Hireashi is gone, mama sealed that dumb demon away!"

"Shut up!" Hiroki screamed and charged at his brother. Citrine cried out as he blocked the attack, "Hiroki!"

"I don't care, Haruki! I, the heir to the Sparta Nyte tribe will get rid of the Court of Love like Tachi wants!"

"No!"

Hiroki growled and as he swung the sword, Masuru blocked it, "Enough!"

Hiroki cried out as Masuru overpowered him and Masuru spoke, "I thought you were better…Master Citrine, heal him of evil."

"Citrine Rebirth!"

Hiroki screamed as orange ribbons surrounded him and as they did, he began to float. He gasped as his eyes stopped glowing and his body began to transform.

"The Boisterous Prince, Battle Lover Obsidian!"

Hiroki…no Obsidian, looked at his dark blue, almost black Battle Lover uniform. He looked as if he were night compared to Citrine.

Kiryoku growled, "Of course…how should I have known…"

She disappeared and as she did, Yumoto's eyes fluttered shut. "Your majesty!" Masuru cried and caught him. As he did, Araki ran in, "Masuru! Kiryoku…Vesta and Sulfur are missing!"

Masuru froze and Araki frowned, "Yumoto…he fainted…he must have felt his guardians being taken…"

"Yes…"
Wombat and Hashibiro looked at one another as Masuru let Araki pick Yumoto up, "Hashibiro…Hiroki is now a Battle Lover…but…Vesta and Sulfur…"

"I know…Cerulean and Epinard are in danger and so are the Caerula Adamas. She is taking them so the heir hands over Tungsten for them."

"…and the heir will fall for it."

"Sadly, yes…Yumoto-san will accidentally hand over Tungsten."

Hashibiro sighed, "And then his guardians will be lost…"

"We can't lose now…he is close to ruling as the God of Love for good."

"How will he be handed over?"

"They will be separated…and the heir will be taken to be beaten by the clan."

"I…I know…he will be beaten badly again."

"Tungsten…he may be hurt."

"Why must we fail…?"

"This is destiny, Wombat, we cannot stop what time has in store."

Wombat looked at Yumoto and Araki and an image appeared in his head, he saw Yumoto cradling Araki's limp body screaming at Kiryoku. "We can't let that happen…Kiryoku will kill Tungsten!"

"Shh!" Hashibiro hissed, "This will truly come true if you keep it up!"

Wombat apologized and looked back at Haruki and Hiroki with Kitsune and Carbon. "I hope nothing happens…"

-

"Io…"

"Ryuu…"

Vesta held Sulfur close to him in the cell, "Dammit…"

"How did we get caught?" Sulfur groaned and Vesta sighed, "We were ambushed…and I felt Yumoto pass out."

"Wait…you did too?"

"Yeah, as his guardians, we can feel what he does, especially if he is hurt."

"Ryuu…we can't let Kiryoku separate us! She will end us off…"

"I know, Io…she will try to kill us! We can't let her."

"She thinks this will bring Hireashi back."

"Will it?"

"No! The seal is strong…we can't let her win! No one can win but the heir!"

Sulfur nodded and heard Kiryoku laughing, "The heir will be killed and Tungsten will be mine!"
