Two Hearts, One Mind

Kira woke up from her bed the next morning in the bed. The memories of last night came flooding back to her. She quickly became angry and punched the wall in frustration. "That lying bastard!" she yelled angrily. "I can't believe he said all those things to me just to get my trust. He never cared about me. All he was after was information about me to tell his teammates. He just thinks of me as some kind of monster. A freak. A worthless half-breed." The more the golden girl thought about what she was saying the more she felt used, betrayed, hurt, angry, and most importantly lonely. She felt more alone now than ever before. Kira didn't know who she should be angry with more. At Hinata for lying to her and crushing her heart, or at herself for being foolish enough to fall for his tricks and letting him captivate her heart. "I can't believe…," she thought. "…In such a short time…he stole my heart." She finished her thought, disbelieve shown in her eyes. She remembered all the times they spent together, laughing, (A/N: Hinata doing most of the laughing.) talking, playing baseball, him commenting on her good qualities, not the bad, and being the first male to call HER beautiful AND willing buying her a present. He treated her as an individual, not a freak. An actually person. A girl! The coyote girl's hand reached up to touch the choker on her neck. The one he gave her. It was truly beautiful and thoughtful, and it represented her favorite things. Kira's eyes drooped in sadness. She truly missed his touches, (A/N: Don't get the wrong idea pervs!) his embrace, his kisses, (A/N: No lip to lip connect. The officially kissed yet, but there going to, so don't worry.), everything. The time she spent with him she felt comforted, the need to always fight was gone, more relaxed, and…happy. The golden-haired girl's eyes widened at the realizations. She…was…happy. Truly happy in the time they spent together. For the first time since her mother died she felt what it was like to be happy and joyful. She placed her hand on her beating heart. "I'm in love with him…even though he lied and betrayed me." The coyote girl stopped in her thoughts for a second, eyes as wide as saucers. "Did I just think that I'm in love with HIM?! But I can't help it. I can't stop thinking about him. He's always in my thoughts. I wish we could go back. If he would have told me, I would have understood. I might be angry at being used, but I'll probably understand. I can't believe I still care for him. I hate him…for doing this to me, but…more than that…I-I l-love him. I love him. From the bottom of my heart…I have fallen for him. Even though he hurt me…I still love him. I love him! I LOVE HINATA!" But the question is can she ever forgive him for betraying her trust. For deceiving her. There was a lot she needed to think about. When she yelled at him, and accused him of lying to her and not caring at all for her, he looked apologetic. Like he actually does care. He looked hurt, too. When Kira looked into Hinata's eyes she didn't believe it, but it showed signs of hurt, regret, and…love? Love for HER? "Does he actually care?" she said to herself. "Does Hinata actually care for me? Does he love me?" Kira was so confused. After some time she shook her head vigorously. "I'm a half-demon, not a human. Why would he love me? There is nothing to love about me. Hinata is a human. He would only love another human, and that's not me and never will be. I would never have THAT and never will," she thought sadly. Plus, he also lied to her. Does that show he loves her? Can she really forgive him for breaking her heart? No! She wasn't ready to forgive him for that. Her heart needed time to heal. "Well time to get the PLAN started," the coyote girl said as she got out of bed.

Kira was sitting at the desk in the AHB meeting room with the other members gathered around the table and couches. "As you all know," Kira said, taking on a leadership tone of voice. "We have all necessary equipment now to finally put our goal into action. To make it become reality." There were cheers among the members. "Calm down," she said. They all knew that sound of that voice, and instantly got quiet. A screen appeared behind her. It was the map of the entire school. The golden girl pointed at the cafeteria. "Here is where we start," se explained. "There should be a hidden passage behind the vending machines. All you have to do is put your hand on the panel, and it will open up. It only responds to demonic or spiritual powers, so most of us should be able to get access to it including Kanade, that is…if she finds it first. We don't need to worry about the SSS opening it since they got no powers of their own. The only way they will probably get in is if they ask Kanade for help. Once you'll enter there is a passage, which is pretty self-explanatory with doors on each level. Solve the problems that each hold, and finally enter the place where the DEVICE is. In about a week we should be able to use it, and finally bring THE world to its knees! The final phase of our plan is underway!" Kira got up from her seat. "Do anything you have to do before you head out under there. You're dismissed!" Everyone got up from their seats and left to prepare.

"What are you going to do, Lady Kira?" Skyla asked.

"I've got some things I've got to take care of first," she responded. "I'll meet you guys later."

"Okay," the brown pig tailed girl said and left. Miss Sayaka knew what Kira was thinking about.

"Where did the kind, gentle Kira go?" she thought as she watched her leader go. "What happened to you, Lady Kira? Did your mother's death caused such a traumatizing experience for you? You have to realize what you're doing or what you've turned into is NOT what she wanted you to be. If you'll go through with this you'll deeply regret it."

Hinata woke up in the infirmary. "Hey, you're finally awake Hinata." He turned his head to the side to see Otonashi in a chair beside him.

"What happened?" he asked.

"We found you lying on the ground after Kira left," the red-head said. "Several of your rib bones were fractured, but it's fixed now. Remember, we can't die, so our wounds heal eventually." Otonashi's face had a concerned look on it now. "Hinata, what happened?" The memories of what happened last night came fluttering back to the bluenett. "Kira… She…"

"She what?" Otonashi asked, both worried and eager to know what happened to the two of them.

"S-she…hates me…now," he said slowly and depressingly. The burnett had an oh'ed and sorry look on his face. "Otonashi? Could you please leave me alone for awhile? I need to be alone," Hinata said after some time has passed.

"Okay." He got up from his chair. "Call me when you need anything. I'll be here to listen. Later." He left after that. The blue head rolled to his side. He couldn't stop play Kira's words over and over in his head.

(FLASHBACK)

Her face was cold and emotionless, but what made him gasp were her eyes. Tears were threatening to fall from them, but she was desperately holding them back. Those beautiful eyes of hers were hurt, angry, sad, and heartbroken. He never wanted to be the one to make her feel like this. He wanted to be the one to make her happy, not the opposite. "You never cared about me!" Kira yelled, obviously hurt and angry. You ONLY wanted to know me because you were TOLD to! Everything you said was a fucking lie! You never cared! You never cared about me, at all!"

No…I didn't lie to you, Kira," Hinata said pleadingly. "Please. Give me another chance. I never meant to hurt or deceive you."

Yeah right," she scoffed. "That's what everyone says, and then they end up HURTING me more. Well, that's enough! No more! I'm tired of being hurt! Haven't I suffered enough?" She tried to run away again, but Hinata grabbed her wrist. "Let go of me, mortal!" she snarled. The bluenett was shocked and hurt. His heart was aching in pain. She must really despise him now, if she's not calling him by his name anymore.

"Kira, please…," he whispered desperately.

"I said 'let go of me'. I HATE YOU!"

(END OF FLASHBACK)

Kira looked so hurt and sad. She must have been thinking about her life before she died. Tears started to form in his eyes. He wanted to make her happy, but instead he ended up making her feel worse than before. "I'm sorry, Kira," he thought, letting the tears fall. "I should have told you. I should have told you about me dating me you in the first place, huh? But I was afraid that you would hate me, but I guess it's too late for that. How can I get you back in my arms? I never got the courage to say this to you out front, but…I love you, Kira. It doesn't matter to me if you're human or not. You are you, and you, Kira, is who I fell in love with. That's why it hurt so much when you said you hated me. You're the only woman I love. Where are you, Kira? Where are you, my sweetheart?"

Kira was wondering the halls as a human when she was grabbed from behind and knocked out. When she gained consciousness she found herself chained to the wall in some underground chamber with the members of the Afterlife Battlefront surrounding her, except for Hinata. "Why didn't I sense them earlier? Even if I'm human I can still sense things. Even if my senses have dulled cause I'm not a half-demon, I should have still sensed them. I'm I really that out of it?" Kira thought as she looked around.

"Welcome, Kira," Yuri said, walking up to her.

"This is quite the welcome party, bitch," she said in spite and not the least bit afraid of what they might do to her. "What do you want?" she asked coldly.

"I just want to know what you're planning." The SSS leader to out a pistol, cocked it, and pointed it at Kira's head. "Either you tell me what they are, or I'll blow your brains out. It's as simple as that. You choose."

"Go ahead and shoot," Kira replied with no hesitation or signs of emotion. "I've been through worst interrogations then this, and it's not like you would hit your mark anyway." Yuri pulled the trigger and then 'Bang'!

Hinata decided to finally get out of the infirmary bed. He took a walk outside, going to all the places that he and Kira went to when they were together. The bluenett stopped by a river looking into his reflection. It soon turned into a reflection of Kira. She looked so serene. He smile at that, but it soon disappeared as did Kira's reflection. Hinata looked up at the clear sky. "Kira…," he whispered.

The SSS all gasped when the bullet missed Kira by mere inches, but it did graze her cheek. "How did I miss her?" Yuri thought in pure shock. "I shot her at close range, too." She shot again, and this time the bullet hit her in the stomach. The Battlefront leader smirked at this. "Are you going to tell us now?"

"Never, you pathetic bitch." There were several rapid gunshots that could be heard. The captive girl now had bullet wounds in her arms, legs, and chest, but it always missed her head, which pissed Yuri off to no end. The reason for that cause it was easier for Kira to move her head than the rest of her body cause remember she's chained up, so it's harder for her to move. "Is that all you got?" she taunted their leader, despite the pain, which she could hide really well. "You really are a sorry excuse for a leader, if you can't even interrogate ONE person right."

"How dare you insult, Yurippe!" Noda yelled.

"Noda, calm down," Yuri said, even though she is quite pissed of herself. She turned to her captive. "If you're not going to tell us, we have other means of getting the answer ourselves. Naoi!" she called.

"What?" he replied.

"See if you can hypnotize Kira, and get her to tell us," she ordered.

"Whatever, but I am God."

"Shut up about that, and just do it already!" Kira sent a cold glare at Naoi as he approached her, and his eyes turned red. The black-haired girl tried to turn her head away, but Naoi grabbed her chin, forcing her to look into his eyes.

"Now, look into my eyes," he whispered. "And show me what you are planning." Kira looked like she was being hypnotized, but in reality she was inwardly smirking.

"He wants to know what I'm planning," she thought deviously. "I'll SHOW him what I'm planning." The black-haired girl closed her eyes.

Naoi found himself in a small town filled with lots of happy, busy people going on about their day. It looked so peaceful. The sky was a clear blue without a cloud in sight with the sun shining its glory light upon them. "This is it. This is what she's planning," Naoi said in disbelieving. "It must be a joke." Oh, he didn't know how right he was. Then without warning the scene changed. The sky was now a horrid red color with eerie black-gray clouds. The buildings were wrecked and on flames, and he could hear the terrified screams of the civilians as they were being killed by demons in the most gruesome way possible. "What the hell is happening?!" he screamed. He tried to cover his ears, but to no avail. "Stop! Make it stop!"

The Battlefront were wanting to know when Naoi would be done already. "When is he going to be done?" Fujimaki asked no one in particular.

"I don't know, but I sure wish he hurry up," Ooyama said.

"What the hell is taking him so long anyway?" Noda yelled.

"This is so stupid," Shiina whispered darkly.

"Everyone, knock it off," Yuri yelled in frustration. "I'm sure Naoi would be done soon, and tell us what he's disco-." She never got to finish that sentence cause of the blood curling scream coming from said person. Kira's eyes were opened, and Naoi was kneeling on the floor, screaming his head off, his face showed pure fear and despair. The SSS members all rushed to him.

"Naoi!" Otonashi screamed as he shook him, trying to make him come back to his senses. "Naoi! What's wrong? Can you hear me? Snap out of it! Naoi!" The Afterlife Battlefront all looked on with confusion and fright.

"What the hell did you do, you bitch!" Noda pointed his axe at Kira only to find out she was gone. The members gasped.

"Where did she go?" Yuri asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

Hinata came back wondering the halls, hands in his pockets when he spotted a bloody Kira walking, well, more like limping in the halls. He could tell her wounds were bullet wounds. She must have had a confrontation with the Battlefront while he was gone. The bluenett couldn't stop the guilt and pain that crept his heart. The black-haired girl spotted him and sent him a cold glare, and clenched her heart. She glared daggers at him. A glare full of hate and anger at the boy who not only broke her trust, he shattered her heart. Hinata froze at the look she was sending him before she vanished. Afterwards, the blue head felt more guilt and regret than before. Just when she needed him the most, he wasn't there for her. When he promised to protect her, he let her down. Hinata knew the look Kira was sending him. A look of betrayal, hate, and anger directed only at him. He punched the wall in frustration. "DAMMIT!" he screamed, letting the tears of regret spill from his eyelids. "Kira, I'm sorry!" he whispered as his tears spilled more rapidly down his cheeks.

(A/N: Well, that's it. That's chapter ten. Just is basically Hinata and Kira's thoughts about last chapter's events, and the SSS trying to get info out of Kira, but failed miserably. Hmm, I wonder what 'THAT' means that Kira's talking about? What are her plans, and why is Sayaka trying to persuade Kira not to go through with it? Oh dear, how will Hinata ever win Kira back now, since the SSS kidnapped her and shot her? She probably thinks he's the one that suggested that. Oh, poor Hinata! Anyway, please read and review! See ya next chapter!)
