Chapter 16

Betrayal

Hello to you all!

Shout out to all the people who reviewed such as Sara, Hirameki Morgan, Lucy Usui, Samara 16. Kawaikkk and Minniemiss123 who I just simply can't stop loving. Thank you also to the two guests whose names are unknown.

Love you all and this chapter is a bit similar to what I did with my story A Scientific Love story.

It's a glimpse at what Misaki was as a child and what her current status is in society.

If you're wondering why I keep bringing up her past in both stories well it's 'caz I'm having writers block and I'm not sure what the next chapters should be about.

I know my plot but I just need to figure out how to carry it out.

Thanks for your patience and I hope you enjoy this chapter.

Six Years Ago

The sun began to disappear in the sky as the blood moon took its place.

The raven haired girl struggled to get up from the ground.

She lifted herself onto her arms and looked up. Her hair was dangling from either side of her face, and the corpses of all the bodies lay before her, in the multiple pools of blood.

Her temple was bleeding and she could feel the blood ooze down to her amber eyes.

"Mistress," Misaki gasped at the name. She dared to turn her head and bit back a cry..

What had he done to them?

Their bodies had merged together into some sort of demon.

"Mistress," they called out to her.

Their hands reached out and Misaki reached out to them as well.

She had to save them.

"No," she whispered. She crawled on her feet and aimed to get closer to them.

"Mistress," their sweet voice echoed in her mind as it gave them more motivation.

"Please help us," they cried.

Misaki got closer and closer. Her hands and their hands were only a fingertip apart.

But sadly those fingers never intertwined.

The blood splattered on her face as the blade cut right through the center of their heart.

The only thing she could do was watch with her mouth hung open.

Her own blood now mixed with theirs and shed down the white dress she was wearing.

Misaki would have fell had she not used her arms to prevent herself from hitting the ground.

She let the tears slip. She had failed them tremendously. All of them. Every single precious smile was gone and all she had left was the memories.

Misaki felt the darkness swallow er as she began to close her eyes.

The last sight she held was a pair of pink brown eyes stare into her own amber ones as held a blade in his hand.

Betrayal.

The one type of pain that would never heal.

One Year Ago

How did it all go wrong?

One minute she was riding the archduke's carriage and the next minute she found herself leaning against a rock gripping her bleeding hand.

She called out his name but he was long gone to hear her.

The demon had taken over his entire soul.

The effects were already made.

Misaki heard a pair of footsteps approaching.

"Suzuna," she called out. "What are you doing here? I told you to get to safety." She scowled at the young girl in front of her. She couldn't let her get hurt.

"Is that him?" Suzuna asked staring at the demon in front of her.

"Yes," Misaki asked with a frown. Misaki had no idea what to do? How could she possibly be so weak at the most important times of all.

"Suzuna?" Misaki looked at her warily as she watched her walk forward. "What are you doing?" She asked loudly.

"It's alright," the said girl simply smiled. "I'm going to fix this."

With that Suzuna held her arms wide open. "We're a family," she spoke cheerfully. "YSA is our home. We help each other grow, and no matter what you mustn't feel lonely. Because we'll still love you."

That was it. Misaki cried as she called out to Suzuna.

The demon batted Suzana's body away with it's arm.

Misaki watched as the girl's body fle in mid air and disappeared into the woods.

She ran and ran as fast as she could.

"Suzuna," Misaki held her head up and shook her. "Suzuna wake up," the tears flowed down and her vision went blurry.

Then it happened. The body began to float in mid air. Indicating that she was drifting off to the afterlife.

"Suzuna," Misaki sobbed and gathered her in her arms bringing her down. "No don't leave me," she begged. But no use. The body faded in her arms and she was left to cry alone.

3 days later

The boy fisted the ground as the rain poured down on them heavily.

"This is all my fault," he sobbed. "I-I don't deserve to live," he claimed.

"It wasn't your fault," Misaki assured him.

He turned to face her. Her bangs covered her eyes but he knew she was crying.

"But mistress," he croaked.

"Suzuna said this to you herself," Misaki reminded him. "That everyone will love you no matter what. We're all a family," Misaki's lips quivered at both the coolness around her and inside her.

"But Suzuna;s now dead," he said almost too loudly.

"Euh!" Misaki exclaimed. The boy gaped at her. "She's not dead if you still love her in your heart"

"Mistress," the blue haired boy looked up at her in awe.

"Suzuna will be loved by us all for as long as we live." Misaki finally looked up at the gravestone with her chin held high. "So we're going to keep on living won't we?"

The boy didn't respond but she already knew how he felt.

Suzuna's smile will always be remembered.

Everyone else will be able to recover.

But Misaki knew she couldn't be like them.

No matter how much she would smile, she would never truly be able to live with herself for all that happened.

Her father was right.

She should've lived the luxury he had provided her.

But then again, when she saw the way YSA lived its life to the fullest she wondered if she really wanted to change the way she was.

Even if she did watch her loved ones bleed to death in front of her.

I know. I didn't exactly say what her class was, but that's 'caz I want it to be a surprise. Besides I'm sure you guys can figure it all out from that one key term I mentioned.

Love you. And stay tuned for my next update of A Scientific Love Story. Things are about to get intense between Takumi and Misaki. I'm sure you guys are up for a surprise.

Btw. The person from the first part, and the person who killed Suzuna are two different people.

The one who killed Suzuna is still very dear to Misaki.

But the other person not so much.

I'll tell you this, he's at the tournament, and Misaki tries her best to avoid him.

Anywho hope you enjoyed. 'Caz I sure enjoyed writing this.

Review, fave, and follow.
