Again a chapter with Semei. I really like him, he is a real psycho ! I hope you will like this chapter.
Chapter 25
Nisei was relieved. For the past weeks Semei was angry with him. It was not his fault if Ritsuka had chose to give his ears to someone else. Nisei had known his sacrifice's mind better than Semei know himself. He was aware since the begining that Ritsuka would always be the first for Semei. Him and Soubi were just tool to him, no matter how much they have loved their sacrifice or still loved him. This sort of love was very demanding, and the breaking of it would destroy the world. Ritsuka's betrayal in Semei's eyes had push the sacrifice beyond the limit of the sanity.
Every night, Semei had beat his fighter in a fit of rage, and Nisei had accepted it. It was his role to accept everything his sacrifice would push him through. But he can't himself but regret to not have succeed at convincing Ritsuka's mother to kill him. It would have spared him a lot of hurt. But what it's done is done. And now he had to find a way to found Ritsuka's hidding place. It would be the only for Semei to be almost sane again.
Finally he was lucky. He was at the bus stop when he spotted a young woman. She looked lost, and Nisei thought it would be nice to make a little fun of her. He was not attracted by her beauty but he decided to act like if he was. He would use her the way he wanted and after that let her go without any regret. If he was Semei's willing tool, then this woman would be his tool. He know no other way to act and he was happy with it.
" Miss." He said. "Can I help you ?"
Nisei smiled nicely to her. He can be very attractive when he wanted to, and the woman seems to fall under his charm.
" Yes, please. Do you know where the seven moon accademy is ? I need to see someone here."
Nisei lost all his thought of using the woman to satisfied his urges. She had become more interesting to him than that.
" Yes, I know the way. Maybe I know the person you were searching for. Tell me."
" I'm glad. I need to meet Mr Minami Ritsu. I have some information to him."
" You are very lucky. He is one of my friend and we have planed to eat together today. Come with me and you can talk to him."
" Thank you. I'm Miaka."
" I'm Nisei."
Nisei lead Miaka to an abandonned house. There he used every means to make her talk. And talk she did. Nisei was very pleased by what she told him. She don't know where Ritsuka was hidding but she know someone who can make him leave his hidding place. Of course, he had to convince the young woman to take her life after she had answered all of his question, but it was a minor point.
Semei was pleased by what Nisei told him. If his fighter was right, then this old woman would be the key to have his brother back. He ordered Nisei to take their thing from the underground where they were hidding. Soon he would have his brother under his power and he would make him regret to have betrayed him.

Hana was worried. Miaka had left this morning and she don't have returned yet. Since the departure of master Agatsuma and the young Ritsuka, Miaka had changed a lot. Hana had seen with worry the young woman becoming more and more like her father. She had seen greed in Miaka's eyes and it had frightened her. She don't know what to do anymore. She loved Miaka very dearly but she can't betray her true master even for the young woman.
She had not expected to be molested when she opened the door this night. She had thought that Miaka had come back and she was ready to lecture her about her way to act. But it was not Miaka who was in the front door, but two strangers, even if one of them looked a lot like the young Ritsuka. The man was older and he had still his ears, but it was not what make him so different of the young Ritsuka. The man was insane, Hana was sure of it. And for the first time she was scared.
Without asking if they can, the two strangers entered the house. Hana can't do anything against it because the man who accompagnied the one who looked like Ritsuka had trapped her and she was powerless against him. When the three oh them were on the kitchen the insane one began to talk.
" Dear Madame." He said." I want to see my beloved brother again, and you will help me with it."
" What would you do with him ? Ritsuka is happy now. Can't you let him be alone ?"
" I can't." Said sadly Semei. " I miss my brother, and I miss my fighter. I don't doubt they are together now. If the one who had dared to take my brother's ears was with them too, I will gladely see him too."
Hana don't understand it. For her it is obvious that Ritsuka had lost his ears with the young master. She had no doubt that the two of them were lover. But she was smart and she decided that the less this stranger knows about Ritsuka and Soubi's relationship, the better it would be. She don't liked the glimmer in the man's eyes when he spoke about the young Ritsuka.
Hana don't wanted to call her young master. She fought the power of one of the stranger but it was no use. She see herself taking the phone and call the number of her master. She heard herself say to her master that she needed him back, and she can't stop herself of doing it. Of course her master agree to come back and she know that Ritsuka would come with him. She let a single tear escape her eyes after the phone call, when the stranger let her mind free again. She had failed her master in a worst way that Miaka's father had to master Ryoichi when he had betrayed his trust.
