Chapter 11 – Hakudoshi's revenge
Hakudoshi walked to the room where Kanna was resting and stopped in front of the huge mirror where he was able to see Kanna, who was still sleeping, with an oxygen mask on his mouth, many wires tied to her pulse and her chest that leaded to a machine that was beside her bed, he was able to see her heartbeat and her pulsation in that machine…it was weak…a compress was over her vein and under it was a needle inside her skin, tied to the needle was a bag of blood that served to replace the blood she lost because of the bullet. Behind that bag was another one but a little bit smaller that had serum and a wire coming from that bag leaded to the back of her hand where another compress was…
Hakudoshi felt more devastated seeing his love like that, that feeling of guilty grew more and more…
His hand touched the cold glass of that huge mirror that interfered between them, the mirror that separated them, a nurse walked by him and for a moment stared at him, she stared at the young albino's expression, hurt…sad…the nurse placed her look on Kanna and then remembered who they were, the young woman approached him and touched his shoulder softly. Hakudoshi's violet eyes turned to face her.
"She must be waking up soon, you only can stay with her for a few minutes but if you want to come in and wait, you may"
"May..I…?"
"Yes, when you have to leave I will come to call you"
Hakudoshi nodded, the nurse left and Hakudoshi opened the door of the room where Kanna rested and entered. Closed the door behind him, looked at his lover, pulled a chair and sat down near her bed. Feeling sad, devastated, Hakudoshi took Kanna's cold hand while he heard the beeps from the heart machine that showed the weak heart beat of his lover's heart, the young boy sighed…
A few minutes later, Hakudoshi was still holding Kanna's hand and suddenly he felt it move slowly.
"Kanna?"
Kanna's eyes started opening slowly and focused the best they could.
"Kanna"
Hearing that voice, Kanna turned her head, still with the oxygen mask on her face, and faced her lover
"Haku…do…shi…?"
Hakudoshi couldn't contain his happiness as he saw his love awake and staring at him, finally those sweet ebony eyes were looking at him again.
"Kanna! Oh Kanna I'm so happy you're awake!"
Kanna gave him a small and weak smile and with the strength she had she held his hand against her chest, with his free hand Hakudoshi caressed her face.
"I was so afraid to lose you…idiot why did you do that?! You could have died!"
"I couldn't…I couldn't let…him…kill you…"
"But you could have died Kanna! I don't know what I would do if I lost you!"
"Shhh…everything…is okay now…"
"Yes…"
"The…the baby…?"
"W-What…?"
"O-Our…baby…is it okay…?"
Hakudoshi looked down, he didn't know how to tell her that the baby didn't survive…specially in the weak condition where Kanna was…but just the look in Hakudoshi's face was enough for Kanna to discover the truth…she didn't need words to explain her…
"It…didn't survive…did it…?"
"No…the bullet hit the placenta and it…died in that moment…"
"…."
Hakudoshi was surprised to see that Kanna keep her calm expression, she didn't started yelling and crying like every woman would in this kind of situation…the young girl was sad , yes and a few tears rolled down her cheeks but she contained her other emotions…
"I'm sorry…" murmured Hakudoshi
"You don't have…to be sorry…"
"Yes…yes I do Kanna and you know I'm right…the reason why you lost our baby and the reason you're in this bed it's my fault…only mine…"
"No…"
"I can't forgive myself Kanna…everything that happened to you, it's my fault…if I had believed in you…you would never have been kidnapped by that monster…we would be happy, together, loving each other and waiting for our baby to be born…but no…stupid me…I didn't believe in you…I didn't trust you…I preferred to believe in what I saw instead in your words…I can't forgive myself Kanna…I can't…" said Hakudoshi sadly as he wiped his own tears that were ready to fall.
"Stop…" she murmured, Hakudoshi looked at her
"Stop torturing yourself…I don't blame you…this was my destiny…this had to happen…God wanted this to happen…" she continued while slowly moved her trembling hand in the direction of her love's face, Hakudoshi placed his own hand on the top of hers when she touched his cheek and closed his eyes, letting the tears fall.
Kanna started breathing hardly and placed her other hand on the oxygen mask and pressed it a little, Hakudoshi immediately opened his eyes when he heard her.
"Kanna?"
"It's…It's okay…I…I'm just a little…tired…that's all….don't worry about me…"
"I'm going to call the nurse"
Hakudoshi let his love's hand go and run out of the room and called the nurse; the nurse came and gave some analgesics to Kanna. A few minutes later, Kanna fell asleep, Hakudoshi sighed.
"You have to leave now sir"
"Yes…I know…"
The nurse opened the door and waited for Hakudoshi to leave, before he left the room he kissed softly and sweetly Kanna's forehead caressed her cheek and whispered:
"I love you"
With those sweet words said, the young albino left the room, the nurse closed the door. Hakudoshi walked silently to the waiting room where Kanna's family and his own were.
"Have you been with her? How is she?" asked Kita, worried about her daughter
"Yes I did…she is still very weak and in pain…but now is resting…" said Hakudoshi with some coldness in his voice, Natsumi noticed it and became worried, she saw him starting to walk out of the hospital.
"Hakudoshi, where are you going?"
"The snowstorm is over…I have to leave to take care of a few businesses…"
"What business…?"
"A very serious business…" said Hakudoshi coldly and with those words said, he left the hospital and started walking in the snow that covered the floor because of the recent snowstorm. The sun started appearing in the horizon shinning that entire zone. Hakudoshi keep walking, with a determinant but cold look towards the forest, never stopping as if he was searching for something.
"I found you…" he murmured very low when he saw the sinister shadow that appeared in the horizon, these cold purple orbs of his became more hard when he faced that figure face to face.
"Well, well who is he" murmured the figure
"Aido…"
"Oh? You came to look for me? How sweet of you, I never thought you were going to miss me so much"
"…."
"What's the matter? The cat ate your tongue? Oh right! How is my dear, sweet Kanna? I'm sure she must be with the angels right now"
Aido didn't get an answer from Hakudoshi again but a strong punch right in his face that threw him to the floor creating a huge crater in the white snow. Aido stood up with his lip bleeding.
"You asshole…" he murmured
"The only asshole here is you…this punch was nothing compared with the things I'm ready to give you…" said Hakudoshi
"Keh…so you wanna fight huh? Very well"
With those words said, Aido run in Hakudoshi's direction ready to punch him very hard but right when he was so close to him, the albino disappeared leaving the black haired boy completely confused.
"What the?! Where are you?!"
"Right here…"
Right in the moment when Aido was turning around, he felt a strong punch in his stomach, so strong that sent him away again to the floor.
"Ugh!" grunted the boy in pain, he coughed some blood and panting hard placed his red orbs in Hakudoshi who was still in the same place, staring at him with coldness.
"Damn you…"
"What's the matter? I thought you were pretty strong, you are nothing but a stupid coward who only knows to kidnap and mess with innocent girls…"
"Keh and what you know about me?! Nothing! Absolutely nothing! You're just a young boy, albino and amnesiac!"
"I can be all of that you just called me…but at last I don't kidnap innocent girls…like you did…"
"I also know very much about you, I know you're fatherless, I know you were on a long trip to try to forget about your little human girlfriend you let die in a fire and I also know you lost your memory because you suffered an attack of demons"
Hakudoshi's look hardened at this
"How do you know I was attacked by demons?"
Aido smiled evilly and stood up, facing again his enemy eyes in the eyes
"Answer me!"
"Simple, I know it because I was the one who sent them after you…"
Hakudoshi's eyes widened in shock
"What?"
"You heard me"
"Why did you do that?"
"Well you see, in one of my trips to come back home, I found an old woman who gave me a home and a house for a few days. I ended discovering that she was an old witch and she was so sweet that she said she would tell me my future in her…kind of crystal ball…and then she told me to be careful with the person who would interfere between me and the girl I loved and guess who appeared in the ball? Very well, it was you, you holding on to my Kanna, so as soon as I came here I made a research about you, about your whole life and when I discovered you were back to your home I decided to finish you before you had time to met Kanna. I controlled a few demons and sent them after you."
"So that's why when I tried to kill them, they would multiply…"
"Exactly, I was controlling them"
"Damn you"
"I thought I had killed you once and for all when I saw you fall off that cliff…but I only was able to make you lose all your memories…I failed in the fact to stop you to meet Kanna…you had a relationship together…but my hope wasn't gone yet so I did everything to separate you from her and it looks like it worked, you saw me kissing her, you thought she had betrayed you and you ended your relationship with her, then I kidnap her and tried to make her see I was the only man who ever loved her and that you were weak but she refused then I decided…if she wasn't mine…then she belonged to nobody else…"
Hakudoshi tightened his fists, the anger taking control over his body…everything that happened in his life was Aido's fault…including him losing his memory…Aido laughed evilly as he saw his enemy's reaction.
"What's the matter? Are you so shocked you can't even react?"
"Damn you…"
Aido laughed again but that laughed disappeared when he saw Hakudoshi trembling very much, the young albino looked at him and his purple orbs weren't purple anymore but bloody red, his nails grew too and so did his fangs.
"What the?!"
"You're gonna pay…"
Hakudoshi's body turned into a huge white ball of fur like the snow and when Aido noticed, before him wasn't Hakudoshi anymore but a huge white fox with bloody red eyes staring at him angrily. The black haired boy got scared and started running away, trying to escape from that monster, Hakudoshi now in his fox form he heir from his father started running after him in a speed so fast as the light. The white fox jumped and fell right on Aido, he yelled and tried to escape from that white monster.
"Let me go! Let me go you monster!" he yelled
But Hakudoshi didn't pay attention to his words and started biting him everywhere, torturing him with no pity, his yells of pain didn't bother him. Soon Aido couldn't move anymore right when Hakudoshi bite him on his neck.
Hakudoshi turned back to the normal and his mouth and clothes were dirty with Aido's blood, the albino boy looked at Aido who didn't move anymore…
Aido was dead…
TBC…
