Dragon tale
Chapter 10: Don't you ever leave
Sika was running down the halls of Koemna's palace, burning with anger.
"Idiot" she muttered to herself as she reached a dead-end.
'Sika? Are you okay?' Sapphire asked concerned as Sika's hands were engulfed in fire.
"You bitch! I'm not okay! Go to hell and leave me alone!" Sika yelled out loud.
'Sika? What happened?' Sapphire asked Sika.
"I'm sick and tired of you controlling my body and ruining the best moments of my life! I'm sick of you!" Sika yelled and, weirdly enough, she felt Sapphire leave her body.
Sika leaned against a nearby wall and let herself sink to the ground, hugging her knees to her chest.
"Finally. It's just me..." she mused to herself in a sad tone. "I hate you Sapphire...I hate you...for everything you did...I hate you..." Sika whispered as memories of a long forgotten experience came back flying to her mind.
She saw their blood, she heard them screaming her name, pleading her to stop, but she couldn't. The reason was so simple...it wasn't her. It was her body, there were her powers, but it was not Sika's mind or Sika's soul. The pour dragon demon was locked in her own mind, watching how her fire part, better known as Sapphire, destroyed all the ones she loved. She hated her for this. However, Sika couldn't stop Sapphire from living in her body and mind. She told everyone that she had allowed Sapphire to live within her just because she was lonely, but in fact Sapphire never asked for permission.
Now, after 4 years since everything happened Sika tried to forget those memories but every time Sapphire would ruin the best moments of her life she would remember and now it was just too much for the dragon girl to take.
As Sika thought about what had happened she had also closed her ruby black eyes. She tightened her grip on her knees as silent rubies started to come down her pale cheeks and land on the ground with a small "click". She kept on crying with no sob, remembering their face when they saw what they thought was her killing their families.
"ARGH! I HATE YOU SAPPHIRE FOR ALL YOU DID!" Sika suddenly yelled at no one.
"I hate youuuu..." "For all youuuu diiiid" the echo came back to her and Sika felt like going crazy.
"Yelling your frustration out, onna?" a cold voice was heard and Sika smirked to herself before raising her head and locking eyes with a smirking Hiei. For a second she saw something in his eyes as he saw her tear-stained face and the rubies nearby her.
"What do you want, Hiei?" she asked as she started picking her rubies up. Surprisingly Hiei bent down and helped her. She smiled to herself thinking that maybe there is some warmth behind that THICK wall of ice.
"Hn" he answered her question.
"I'm not going to get an answer to that, right?" she asked smiling.
He smirked to her and gave her the tears.
"Thank you" she whispered to him and rose to her feet. Now that she looked better Hiei wasn't at all THAT short. Well, he was almost her height, with less than an inch shorter. And he was also pretty handsome with those piercing eyes of his.
The young demoness felt her cheeks warm up a little and she tried to bit back the blush.
"So...what do you want?" Sika asked looking into Hiei's ruby red eyes.
"Hn" what a great answer!
"I won't get an answer..." Sika sighed as she got up from the floor and dusted her dress.
"You..." Hiei started and Sika looked at him with a calm expression, a small smile tainting her face.
"Me what?" she asked raising an eyebrow.
"You...you..." he took a deep breathe and, "You look beautiful onna" he continued.
Sika was shocked to say the less! Hiei actually making a compliment??
"Are you okay?" Sika asked slightly worried.
Before any of them could say something else, the wolf demon, Kiba appeared out of nowhere. Sika sighed.
"Now, now, my Sika, don't be so mad on me, because now I brought my friends with me" Kiba said grinning.
Sika's eyes widened, "You DID WHAT???" she yelled.
"Uh-hum, I even brought Zetsumei" he said proudly.
In a second, Sika had his neck in her right hand, a dagger of fire-energy ready to slash his throat.
"You're idiot or are you just pretending???? Zetsumei is NOT your friend!!! He wants to kill you, you idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sika yelled.
"What the hell?" Kiba yelled back.
"YES YOU BAKA!!! I COULD HANDLE YOU AND EVEN PUT UP WITH YOUR STUPIDITY BUT WHY IN ALL GODS YOU HAD TO BRING ZETSUMEI????? WHY??????????????? DID YOUR LAST BRAIN-CELL DIED IN THE PAST HOUR OR WHAT???" Sika yelled more pissed than ever.
"He...really wants to kill me?" Kiba asked shaking.
Before Sika could nod, an evil laughter filled the hall of Koemna's castle.
"How stupid you can be, Kiba" laughed a new demon that came into view. He had short silver hair with red end-tips and his eyes were the fiercest gold Hiei saw in his whole life. Who the hell was this demon?
"Sika..." his voice was calm, tainted with amusement. "I see you've grown. You were just a little baby when I last saw you" he said with lust in his voice, but keeping a sadistic, twisted smile on his face.
The dragon demoness' eyes slowly went cold, dull, just like the time when Hiei and the gang first met her. Her porcelain hand slowly let go of Kiba's neck and the wolf demon ran away in fear of what could happen between these old enemies.
"Zetsumei..." Sika's voice was deadly. A whisper that would freeze hell and unfreeze it afterwards. So icy and also so full of fire. A fire that Hiei never saw, not even when the dragon yasha was mad. Her ruby-black eyes were flaming. An untamed fire that wanted to break free.
"Still mad because of what I did to those weaklings you know as your parents?" Zetsumei laughed.
"Weaklings?" it was Sika's time to laugh and Zetsumei's eyes to widen. In Sika's hands was a ball of fire, but not just simple fire. It was a dragon's fire. Something she had never used before, just once, and it was time to use it again.
"Zetsumei, my parents weren't weaklings, just for the simple thing that they gave birth to me..." she smiled calmly at him and Zetsumei smirked at her.
"Yes, they gave birth to such beauty so they couldn't have been that bed, ne? Especially your mother" Zetsumei said while licking his lips.
"You have where to know that from, don't you?" Sika said smirking and Zetsumei looked damn surprised. "Time for payback, bastard! You destroyed my mom, my dad, my brother, my life! You even put Sapphire in me, you twisted jerk! How could you? Destroying two lives with a single blow? You know what? I sent Sapphire back to hell! She'll be fine there, because soon enough she'll have the company of the one who created her" Sika's voice broke into a sadistic laughter. Hiei's eyes widened. What had gotten into the dark, but sweet dragon onna he knew?
"I can destroy two lives with a single blow, you maniac" Sika smirked evilly as the energy in her hands grew bigger and bigger. The light color that it was at the beginning changed into a dark crimson until it ended up being pure black.
"I condemn you, Zetsumei, to a life in darkness! My dad saved you from that darkness by cursing himself and his first daughter! Your darkness had to fly in my veins but I'm giving it back to you! You bit the hand that fed you and now it's time for you to die you bastard!" Sika's voice went from calm to shouting and the energy surrounded her.
"You damn dragon, you don't know how vulnerable you are now" Zetsumei laughed and was about to lash out at the black sphere when his head ended up rolling on the floor. He forgot one thing. Hiei. The fire demon took advantage of this and cut Zetsumei's head off. Unfortunately, Zetsumei couldn't be killed only by that. He was immortal so he couldn't die so easily.
Zetsumei tried to heal himself, but the power of the darkness that once held him prisoner was too close to him and was killing his powers.
Hiei felt something was wrong with Sika and he jumped into the black sphere.
Darkness surrounded the fire and ice demon. His Jagan was helpless in that place. So much darkness, it felt as if he was suffocating. Hiei's knees gave in and he fell onto them. His right hand went to his neck, because he couldn't breathe.
"Hiei..." a sweet, serene voice was heard. His ruby-eyes went up, he saw a light and suddenly air came to his lungs. Picking up his abnormal speed he reached the light. Surrounded by fire and darkness was Sika. He sped up to her but the fire wouldn't move. His shirt got burned but he didn't care. He just wanted to save her.
"Hiei..." the serene voice came again. It wasn't Sika's. he turned and what he saw made his heart skip a beat, for the first time.
There, dressed in a white dress, with blue ends, was his mother.
"Mother..." the boy whispered, the word sounding forbidden to his tongue.
"Yes, my son, I have come to help you save the one you love" his mother said in the same serene voice.
"How?" Hiei asked.
"Just believe in you, in her and in your love for her" his mother started disappearing.
"No! mother! Don't go!" he yelled after her.
"Hiei, my son, I will always be there for you and I will always love you, my dear son" his mother whispered and so she disappeared.
Hiei sighed and turned to Sika. Her beautiful black and red dress flew gently around her, her hands a little rose around her body, her hair blew around her and her lips were parted for her breathing. Her ruby and black eyes were closed, her pale skin was now a light shade of pale.
"Sika..." he whispered, the word sounding as forbidden to him as the ice and fire that coursed through his veins.
"I love you..." his voice was low, but not too low. Suddenly the blackness surrounding her disappeared as she started falling down. He didn't waste a second as he flew up and caught her.
Soon enough the blackness around them faded and they were back in the hallway of Koemna's castle where he found her crying and yelling her frustration out.
He collapsed down, with her still in his arms. Not that she was too heavy, or something, no. He was tired because of the whole energy that flew in the air some time ago. It was too powerful, even for him.
Hiei's eyes went to the demon, no, angel in his arms and a small smile graced his lips. Sika's head was resting against his chest, her body lifting up and going down with each of her breathes. Her body was warm and he liked the feeling of keeping her in his arms. He never wanted her to leave him. At this, his grip tightened around her, in a protective way.
The girl moaned lightly and his eyes focused on her again. Her black-ruby eyes opened slowly and she looked surprised at first to see him, but then she relaxed.
"What happened?" she asked.
"I guess your spell or whatever it was worked, because Zetsumei is no longer here" Hiei answered in his normal tone.
"Didn't he try to kill me after the darkness appeared?" Sika asked.
"Yes, but I cut his head off" Hiei said smirking. Sika let out a small laugh before leaning into Hiei's warm body. His chin was on top of her head and his eyes closed in the same moment as hers.
"Thank you, Hiei" she whispered softly.
"Hn, you're welcome, onna" he said smirking.
"I must get used to that onna thing" Sika laughed.
Hiei smirked and moved her head so her eyes met his.
"Sika" he breathed.
"Yes?" she smirked.
"You looked like an angel back there" he said.
"I was an angel" she said smiling. He raised an eyebrow and she laughed, before becoming serious.
"That spell you saw...a girl my age put on Zetsumei centuries ago, but my dad thought in his friendship and let him go. By freeing Zetsumei, my dad cursed himself with that darkness. I mean, he had to keep the darkness in control and running through his veins until his first daughter was born. I was his first daughter, so the curse went into my veins. Zetsumei betrayed my dad as soon as I was born. My dad and mom died and I was separated from my brother. The curse was in my veins and I managed to control it after a while. It was hard, but I did it anyway. Now, I sealed Zetsumei back into his darkness, although the curse...no, not the curse...more likely the power still runs through my veins" Sika explained.
Before Hiei could say anything, both demons heard footsteps and they knew to whom they belonged.
"Koemna and the others" Sika said and, through one glance, the two demons understood each other. Hiei picked Sika up, bridal style, and, with his lightning speed, they were off, god-knows-where.
Soon enough they reached Sika's apartment, more precisely, her room. Hiei entered through the window, like usually, and placed the girl on her bed. Sika was already sleepy, so the demon though she was actually sleeping. He wanted to leave but she had a firm hold on his leather coat.
"Hn. What do you want me to do, onna?" Hiei asked.
"Stay here, with me, please" Sika whispered and Hiei "hn"-ed, but he did get in the bed with her and wrapped his arms around her waist. Sika smiled as she raised her head up so she could meet his eyes.
"You know what?" Sika said smiling.
"Hn?"
"I...I...I love you..." Sika whispered.
Hiei smiled to himself and claimed her lips in a kiss. Their kiss started innocently and so it ended.
"I love you too, onna" Hiei smirked to her.
Sika snuggled closer to him, burying her head into his chest as one pearl went out of each of her eyes and landed somewhere on the bed.
"What's with the pearls?" Hiei asked with a raisend eyebrow.
"A dragon's tear becomes a ruby when the dragon is sad…it becomes a diamond when the dragon is happy…it becomes a pearl when the dragon is…" but Sika stopped.
"When the dragon is what?" Hiei asked.
"When the dragon is...loved..." Sika continued in a barely audible whisper.
"Well, then, it means I do love you, right?" Hiei smirked and Sika smiled snuggling even closer into his warmth.
"Don't you ever leave!" Sika ordered him.
"I won't" Hiei promised to her and to himself as both lovers drifted into sleep.
After a while, the two mated and were bond to each other for eternity. Sika's tears never became ruby's but they did became pearls many times after that night.
The two loved each other as no one else did. Their love was different, just because it was Forbidden. They were the Forbidden Children, so they weren't meant to love, though now, look at them, they were in love and happy. Happy until the end and this is how the story ends.
