Chapter 16: Unlike You
Sora awoke late in the morning. Tasuki was not in the room. He was most likely taking a leak or getting breakfast. Sora sat up and threw her legs of the side of the bed. Her wounds still hurt but she felt much better. She felt some weight against her thigh. "Oh! The bags Nuriko and Hotohori gave me!" She pulled out a blue and purple bag. She opened the lightest one, which was purple. Inside lay a small bracelet which was slightly beaten. It was rather old but still pretty. "What is.?" In her head she saw a vision of bracelets. Nuriko was wearing them. In the center was a red stone. Then she saw the priestess wearing them. Then she saw a vision of the priestess wearing only one "This must have been Nuriko's." Before she could open up the next bag, Tasuki came into the room with Chichiri. Sora slipped the bracelet up her arm high so they would not see it and placed the other bag in her pocket. "Good morning. Oh Chichiri! Where have you been!"
"No where in particular Kan.I mean Sora." Sora gave him a look or question but wrote it off as a slight slip up.
"I brought ya some food. I thought you might be hungry after almost kicking the bucket the last 2 days."
"Thanks Tas." Chichiri sat in a chair in the corner of the room and watched Tasuki and Sora chat.
"I will have my lover and I will have you dead Tasuki." he whispered to himself.
Chichiri, the real one, felt himself in a dark space. "What is going on no da?" Mitsukake appeared before him. "How are you Chichiri." Chichiri gave his long dead friend a hug.
"Mitsukake!" Mitsukake pulled Chichiri off him a moment later.
"Do you know what is going on?"
"If you are here does that mean I am dead no da?"
"No. But you may be shortly."
"?"
"Kurai has taken over your body right?"
"Yes no da."
"Nuriko and Hotohori paid Sora a little visit. She will be in good hands. I don't know if you will survive what is ahead." Chichiri was in a pit of sorrow but looked up hopefully.
"If my death will save Sora then I will welcome death."
"You may have to."
Night had come in the palace. Chichiri brought dinner into the room. Before he served them his slipped a yellow powder into their food. "I have your dinner."
"Thanks Chi-Chan"
"Yeah thanks man." Moments after Sora took her first bite she stiffened and shook.
"Sora! Are you ok?" As Tasuki touched Sora to see if she was all right, he himself dropped to the floor paralyzed.
"Chichiri." Chichiri smiled at them.
"Oh. Chichiri is asleep you see." Tasuki jolted slightly, still unable to move.
"You fucking bastard! Chichiri! CHICHIRI SNAP OUT OF IT!"
"Actually.he won't. And YOU are the bastard who took Kana from me." He walked over to Tasuki, kicked him in the stomach, and then hit his face to the ground.
"Please stop this!!!!!! Tasuki!!!" Kurai walked over slyly to Sora. He lay her back on the bed and straddled her.
"No you can watch me defile your beloved. Enjoy the show." He kissed her lips hardly and bit them until they bled. The he kissed down her neck as she whimpered in fear. He torn open the front of her yukata and began to fondle her. "Dear god.help me." She prayed.
Tasuki struggled to move. He cursed and flung himself about the ground in pain. "PLEASE! KILL ME! DON'T HURT HER!" Sora turned her head to the side of the bed near Tasuki. She stared at him with eyes full of tears. She cried out and whispered to him, "I love you Tasuki, no matter what happens to me.I love you and only you."
"Sora!" A light began to emerge from her pocket. Suddenly a light burst out and struck Chichiri's chest. Piercing threw him like a sword Kurai jumped from the bed and into the wall where he slid to the ground. The armlet from Nuriko lit up and returned movement to that arm. She reached to the pocket which lit up. She pulled out the bag from Hotohori and opened it. It was a sword handle and hilt. A blade of energy had emerged from it. "Nuriko..Hotohori.thank you." She saw their figures in the corner of the room smile at her and not to her thank you. A dark hair man appeared.
Tasuki whispered "Mitsukake." Mitsukake placed his hand over Sora and returned her movement and then to Tasuki and did the same. He disappeared with a smile.
"Nice to see you guys again." Sora got up and rushed to Chichiri's body. Kurai was still in him.
"I will have you yet!" Chichiri's body bled badly. His eyes were flashing from red to purple. With out warning Kurai spirit fell out of Chichiri's body and materialized on the floor. Chichiri looked up as himself again.
In pain he uttered, "Hi no da."
"Oh Chichiri!" Sora cried. As Kurai lay injured on the floor Tasuki rushed over to him and grabbed his wings, placed his foot on Kurai's back and pushed him to the ground. Tasuki drew out his tessen.
"Rekka SHINEN!"
The flames burnt Kurai's wings to ashes. "Now you can't escape you fucking demon!" As Tasuki lay a beating on Kurai's face Sora stood and clutched her arms to her chest. "Sora! Let me in! Let me use your body!" Kana beckoned. Sora's Eyes become dark, the tips of her hair become blonde and wings sprung from her back in bloody spurts.
"Away from my brother." She commanded to Tasuki. He saw she was no longer Sora and moved away in disbelief. She stood over her brother, took him by his throat, and lifted him from the ground. Tears of blood ran down her face. He gave her brother a deep kiss and from her lips his body burned to ashes. She commanded winds to lift his ashes and them soaked them into the ground.
"May your soul be damn for all eternity."
Kana spoke out to Sora. "Thank you for helping me. I will leave now. Your trifles are yet to be over."
Kana's spirit lifted from Sora's body and she was returned to normal.
Sora awoke late in the morning. Tasuki was not in the room. He was most likely taking a leak or getting breakfast. Sora sat up and threw her legs of the side of the bed.
