There were some minutes of awkward silence.

"You mean, they want to kill you?" Burn whispered. We stopped near a villa, catching breathe.

"Not exactly" I objected "They need me for something, and then they would kill me. But I think they just need my body, and not necessarily I should be healthy. With a broken arm I'm still of use, for example. If you don't notice they didn't treat me with kid gloves, huh."

"Does this happen often?" Gazelle replied sarcastic.

"No, just in the last month" I said being serious "Didn't you hear about the airport?"

"No" They answered surprised at the same time. I sighed "Nevermind. Just go home."

"I don't believe you're going anywhere, kids" Rebecca's voice interrupted us.

"Shit" Gazelle said and started to run again, but this Rebecca didn't follow. She snapped her fingers and a thunder fell right in front of us.

"Did you think Machi was the only one to have kind of powers? I mean, his black flood is really useful, but he's not the only one to be strong" Rebecca laughed. Another thunder came behind her, wrapping his body with light.

I came to the conclusion that Rebecca, Machi and probably even Angus, all of them, were dangerous in their own way –they were fanatic crazy weirdos with weird powers.

And I definitely didn't want to get involved in any troubles with them, although a very bad feeling told me I was up to my neck in troubles.

"I'm gonna take you with me, Ryuujikun, no matter what… and who" She claimed, giving a rapid look to Gazelle and Burn. I started struggling.

"Guys, go away!" I told them.

Burn snorted "Do you think we would let you do the part of the hero all alone?"

"I'm not joking! They nearly killed Diam!" I screamed. Gazelle shrugged "We're in now."

Rebecca smiled again; but in the same instant a thunder fell down to her, Burn moved: he grabbed her arms and held them strongly on her back, tackling her to the ground.

"Not bad for a kid, huh?" He joked, evidently proud of himself. She snorted trying to get free.

I felt suddenly relieved and turned to face Gazelle. The boy was looking above us, scanning the sky, then all of sudden he grabbed my shoulders and pushed me on the ground.

There was a noise of cut air and then a long sword came out of the darkness, scratching Gazelle's face. He clenched his teeth while touching the bloody-cloured scratch in contrast with pale cheek. The sword -a long, thin and sharp sword like samurai's ones- turned back like a boomerang and was caught by an hand. There was someone coming out from the darkness.

"It was close" Gazelle whispered. Both Rebecca and Burn seemed anxious, for different reason of course. In fact while Burn was worried for his boyfriend, Rebecca's expression soon turned into an angry and disgusted face. "I thought I told you I didn't need your help" She hissed.

"Is that so? It doesn't seem like" the guy answered. Now he was under the light of the moon, which wasn't covered by black clouds anymore –though a thin rain was still falling.

He had blue eyes and hair, under a black hat, and wore long boots under his black cape. There was a sword in each one of his hands. I didn't like his smile one bit.

He licked his sword which was dirty with Gazelle's blood. Yeah, definitely I didn't like him.

"You have good reflexes. I like you" he said with a mature and seducing voice, turning to Gazelle and ignoring anyone other than him.

"Your feeling is unrequited" Gazelle hissed, still staying still in front of me as if he wanted to protect me with his body. The guy made a fake worried face.

"Your tongue is bitter, even though your blood is so sweet" He whispered and took a step further "Yeah, I would definitely like to confront with you…"

"Brand, remember what's your mission! You shouldn't joke around!" Rebecca hissed again, and Burn pushed her face down so she was facing the ground.

The guy with swords whose name was Brand seemed confused for a bit, then he looked at me.

"Oh. So you're the dragon child. You're not interesting at all" He huffed, sounding deluded. For once, I was happy I wasn't interesting, but my happiness was stroke down as he added "Well, it's not necessary to bring you unharmed. I could mess around with you a little…"

He square me then murmured "I wonder what your blood taste like…"

"Don't touch him" Gazelle said firmly. He held a soccer ball, ready t hit him with his amazing techniques. The Brand guy smiled and said "You wanna protect him, that's really sweet. I told you, I like you. I can't wait to held you in my embrace while you're bleeding to death!"

"you really have bad tastes" Gazelle made a disgusted grimace, then he launched the ball in the air and kicked him –it flew against his enemy leaving an icy wake behind.

Brand jumped in time to avoid being frozen, but one of his sword was caught in the ice. He tried to free it but to no avail. At this time He looked up to Gazelle and a sadistic smile stirred his mouth. "I'll cut your delicious neck slowly and deeply" He whispered.

"You.. you are crazy! Utterly mad!" Burn screamed, while I was paralyzed from, still sitting on the ground. Burn's moment of distraction allowed Rebecca to get free –she gave him a kick and made him roll aside, then stood up.

"I didn't want that guy to come" she said in a disgusted voice, looking at brand and Gazelle fighting –I can see why, he was unbearable and blood maniac.

"I thought we could do a fast job, but I was wrong. Now, you come with me" She said, then snapped her fingers and Angus suddenly appeared again to grab Burn shoulders and stop any movement of his. My friend struggled but to no avail, the gorilla was too strong.

"I can't see why you are so terrified by us, Ryuujikun. We're your friends, you know, we just want you to regain the power you had lost" She smiled then bend down so that she was just a few millimetres from my face. I nearly lost in the fascinating violet colour of her eyes.

"Don't you remember? You was the one to call us" She whispered.

I gasped. "N-no… this is not…" I shuttered. It couldn't be possible, I didn't even know them. I stood up and started to take steps back, but I was hurting and lost balance. I feel again, this time slamming my head in a wall.

And that was the instant. My head started to pulse and my body to shiver uncontrollably. A few imagines was surfacing from my memories.

I was six years old. My parents died just three months before and I had been transferred in a new child house. I cried a lot in that period, I cried every night and sometimes even in the day.

Like that time. It was a sunny day and I was crying silently on the street because I couldn't get along with others since everyone was making fun of my ponytail –they said it was girly.

Then suddenly I heard someone else crying, but there was nobody but me. I stood up and I saw in front of me a child. It was a girl and she was crying just like me. I suddenly felt weird. She was holding her eyes close, but when she noticed me she opened them and looked into mine. I wanted to comfort her somehow and I knew she wanted to comfort me too. We both stretched our hand to touch each other, but there was like a barrier between us. In the moment we touched it and our fingers got to caress each other, I felt a shiver going through all my back, as if I had gotten a shock. She suddenly disappeared before my amazed eyes.

Carried away by this memory, I felt another jolt in my body. With my eyes I searched for the others. Rebecca was still standing before me but now she seemed to have noticed something more interesting than me; same goes for Angus, while Burn was struggling to get free and Brand was still molesting Gazelle in his own bloody way.

I looked in the same direction as Rebecca, but my gaze was blurred.

At end of the street there was a girl wearing a long black cape, but she wasn't my enemy. She was Ryuukochan. Rebecca seemed surprised to see her –maybe they were already acquainted?

"What did you come for, little princess?" She mocked her but I could see she was getting anxious. Ryuukochan shook her head and took a long breathe in.

Then she screamed, but that was definitely not a scream. It sounded more like ultrasounds. But it worked. Rebecca, Angus and Brand suddenly stopped and tried to cover their ears with hands but, no matter what, the ultrasounds seemed to disturb them a lot. I saw their body disappearing before my eyes, screaming from pain.

Ryuukochan stopped and regained breathe, then she bended down near me. Gazelle and Burn was looking at us in shock. "So you remembered, finally" She whispered and held my hand.

"That was the first time we met, Ryuujikun… when our contact broke the seal."

I couldn't understand her words as I found myself very weak. "Thank you" I blabbered and lost senses.


Notes from me:

-the name 'Rebecca' means 'a beauty maiden'; the name 'Brand' has Celtic origins and means 'sword'; the name 'Angus' is Scottish and means 'wisdom' (that is ironic since he's a blockhead :P).
