"See I told you."

I heard a voice, as I slowly opened my eyes.

In this place that was darker then the cells back home.

I couldn't tell who was talking but I knew they were females.

"So this is the famous prince Tsume…..the one who killed over 100 people with out getting a scratch…"

The voice speaking now sounded angry and older, as my eyes soon could see them.

One of the three girls looked to be 15 and the other two looked to be the age of 21.

"He looks a bit older now….but his eyes aren't the same. Are you sure that Kitsune said this was the murderer?"

"Of course I'm sure….Reiko sama told Kitsune that he…he helped them get away."

"No way…this man can't be him…the man I saw that day was a cold blooded killer."

I lowered my head and closed my eyes.

"He moved…is he awake."

"Who cares…this time he is on the other side and he wont be as lucky, as all the people he killed…Lets go before Kitsune finds us."

Two of them ran off, as I slowly lifted my head and looked into a pair of angry amber eyes.

"So you are awake?" She sternly asked, as I nodded my head yes.

"So tell me how it feels prince Tsume! To be on the other end!" She coldly spoke, as I could hear all the rage she had from just her voice.

"Answer me…"

"I'm sorry…" I calmly answered, as I lowered my head to her.

"You're sorry…well you'll soon see just how sorry you'll be for ever coming here! Did you think we forgot what the famous murderer did to our home?!" She yelled, as I heard the other men wake up.

"I did not…and once again I am sorry." I calmly spoke, as I felt glares from the other men.

"Prince Tsume." I heard Yukihito's voice softly speak, as I shook my head.

"It's true I am sorry for what I did…I'm glad I saved so many of my men, but….I killed so many. I am truly sorry…" I calmly said, as I lifted my head and looked into the angry 21 year olds eyes.

"You know…with your eyes looking human now…I might really believe you. But you saying your sorry wont bring my sister or mom back!" She yelled, as she ran off.

'I see…so I did kill people she cared about.' I thought, as I lowered my head once again and closed my eyes.

'I wish they would just beat me already….it might make this pain easier to deal with. Himeko please hurry and pass your tests…that way you can rule your home again…and once that happens you can talk to Tsubasa.' I thought, as I let sleep slowly take over.

As memories I've tried to run from started to reclaim my mind.


Meanwhile.

"Himeko are you awake?" Reiko asked, as she opened the door into Himeko's room.

She saw that Himeko was awake and sitting on her bed, as she closed the door behind her.

"This lady Hinata seems to be kind of nice…."

Reiko stopped when she noticed Himeko had her head lowered and was hold her knees to her chest.

Her face was buried, as Reiko walked over and sat down next to her.

"You're worried about Tsume right?" Reiko calmly asked, as Himeko managed to nod her head yes.

"I see. Why didn't you tell them that Tsume's a female?" Reiko asked, as Himeko slowly lifted her head.

"You know?" She asked.

"I know she's the same gender as you and me, but I don't know why neither of you told them."

"She didn't want me too….she said that her brothers would get in trouble, if her kingdom found out…" Himeko answered, as she lowered her head once again.

"I see. Himeko tomorrow you have your first test. It's late you should get to sleep, after all it's been a crazy night and you'll need your rest to be able to pass." Reiko calmly explained, but she noticed that Himeko wasn't listening.

"Himeko Tsume would want you to sleep…she would want you to pass your tests…that is the only way she can be free again." Himeko slowly nodded her head letting Reiko know she understood.

"Reiko…"

"Yes?"

"A lot has changed since we were here….our home is no better then the kingdom of moon."

Himeko stopped, as Reiko went and wrapped her arms around her and held her in a tight embrace.

"Yes…a lot has changed, but when you rule you'll change everything…You'll make this home again."

"Reiko…Hinata made a rule 'saying that royals can't go to where the men are kept…that only men that are not scum can be seen by royals.' I can't see her…as long, as we are here I can't see her."

Himeko's voice was full of pain and worry, as Reiko tighten her embrace on the young princess.

"It's alright Himeko…Tsume is strong she'll be alright, and her rules say nothing about us going. Makoto, Korona and I will check on her for you and tell you how she is…Everything will be alright you'll see." Reiko whispered, as the door slowly opened.

Korona and Makoto stuck their heads in and soon entered the room.

As all three of them were trying to ease Himeko's worry so that way she would be able to rest.


Later.

"Hime finally went to sleep…sorry sis but Korona wanted to spend the night with her to make sure she'd be alright." Makoto lightly smirked, as she sat down on her bed.

All of them had their own rooms all next to each other, as Makoto sat on Reiko's bed.

"It's alright…Himeko needs her right now."

"Your calling her by her whole name…you've never done that before."

Reiko sighed, as she lightly laughed.

"Your right…but it just comes out now. So tell me what else we should know about our new home." Reiko calmly said, as they both got back to business since Korona was now watching over their princess/ sister.

"Kitsune explained the rules really well and I hate to say it, but it sounds just like the kingdom of moon except we are the ones that are living high and sadly Tsume is the one living in hell." Makoto stopped and lowered her head.

"I hate this! Tsume isn't like those pigs! He shouldn't have to live with them! He should be the one at Hime's side right now!" Makoto stopped, as she felt her body tense up.

Reiko sighed, as she too lowered head.

"Makoto did Kitsune say anything about us going to that place…o and does it have a name?" Reiko calmly asked.

"We can go and it's called….hell." Makoto calmly answered her older sister.

"I see. Tell me everything about this hell that Tsume is now living in." Reiko calmly ordered, as Makoto started to explain everything to her sister.


Meanwhile.

"Hey Prince!" A voice yelled.

I slowly opened my eyes and looked to see it was the man in the cell across from mine.

"Yes?" I calmly answered.

"Why the hell were you being so nice to that bitch?!"

I clenched my fists, as I lifted my head and glared at the man.

"Because I don't blame her for hating me!" I coldly answered, as I started to hear whispers.

"Are you really the same prince Tsume? The same man who killed that village of law breaking bitches!"

I felt my body start to shake from anger.

"No! I'm not the same person I was…I've changed!" I answered.

"Changed…so what now you're a bitch yourself."

"Keep talking and see what happens."

I threatened hoping it would get him to stop, but the older man just smirked and leaned closer to his cell bars.

I could see his dirty face and his cold brown eyes, but that was all.

"What are you going to do about it?! I bet you couldn't kill a fly the way you were saying sorry to that bitch!" He smirked.

I slowly closed my eyes and tapped into the crystal around my neck. I went and decided to use the power from my own crystal that was now around my love's neck. Once I found it I slowly opened my eyes and a strong gust of wind went and snapped the mans neck breaking it, as his head hit the cell bars and he was dead.

I took a deep breath and lightly smirked, as I heard everyone start talking louder.

"What was that?!"

I looked when I realized it was Kitsune's voice yelling in the darkness.

I heard others with her, but I only paid attention to her voice.

"Kitsune this mans dead." One reported.

"Who did this?!" She yelled.

"It was the prince!" Some of the men yelled, as I soon heard Kitsune walk over to my cell.

I looked and saw her cold light brown eyes glaring at me.

"Already getting into trouble…so you still have that strange power of yours…"

I soon heard my cell being opened, as I felt chains go a around me.

"Let's show him what happens when you decided to cause trouble!" Kitsune ordered.

I felt the females pull me to my feet and started leading me away from my cell and the cells of the filth.

'I see that all men are still the same…except for a few like Yukihito, but those pigs are just as bad, as the ones back home.' I thought, as they kept leading me away.


O no Chikane's already in trouble…what are they going to do? Will she be alright? And how will Himeko do with her tests when she is worried about how Chikane is? You'll have to read to find out.
