Chapter 7
While Michiru was confessing her love to
Haruka, Trevor drove to the hospital. "I need your help, brother." He told
Harold as soon as he had found him. "What is it this time?" Harold asked
annoyed. "I need something that makes Tenoh's heart standing still." Trevor
answered. "Some poison." "I don't have a thing like…" Before Harold could
finish, his brother had grabbed him and pushed him against the table. "I know that you have something like that
here." Trevor hissed. "And you will come with me and insert it to the Tenoh
guy." "No!" Harold cried out. "If you want to kill Tenoh, I'll give you the
poison, but I won't help you doing it!" "Oh yes, you will." Trevor answered, a
cold smile on his face. He grabbed one of the scalpels that laid on the table
behind Harold and held it to his brother's throat. "Or I'll kill you first."
"Okay", Harold stammered, "okay. I'll do it. Just put that away. Please!"
Trevor lowered the scalpel and put it into his pocket. "Good boy." Harold
shivered at the voice of his brother; it sounded a lot like their long dead,
abusive father. "Now go get the poison. I'll wait here. If you aren't back in
fifteen minutes, I'll kill the next person I meet. And you don't want to be the
reason for an innocent person dying, right?" "N-no. I'll be back, I promise."
Trevor let go of his brother, and Harold dashed out of the room.
"Haruka…Haruka, please stop crying." Michiru
begged, caressing her soon-to-be-lover's wet cheeks. "I'm just…so happy."
Haruka sighed between to racked sobs. "You have no idea how happy you made me
now, Michiru…" Michiru smiled and kissed Haruka again. "If you're only half as
happy as I am now, it's a lot." The aqua haired girl said, and Haruka grinned,
her tears finally stopping. "So…we're a couple now?" the blonde then asked,
sounding slightly worried. "Yes." Michiru answered, still smiling. "Then I want
another kiss." Haruka stated matter-of-factly. "I love to kiss you." Michiru
answered, jumping at Haruka and kissing her. "Haruka-papa? Michiru-mama?" a small voice suddenly asked.
The two women flinched apart and looked at Hotaru who had just entered the
living room and stood in the doorway, grinning. "Uhm…hi Hotaru." Haruka finally managed to say. Hotaru jumped at
her papa. "My parents are finally a couple!" the young girl called out happily.
Haruka and Michiru just stared at her for a few seconds before all three of
them burst out laughing.
Harold handed his brother a small syringe that
held some golden liquid. "Here, Trevor. That's an appliance causing a human's
heart to stop beating within a few seconds. If now one tries to revive the
affected person, she or he dies." "Very good." Trevor told his brother. "Come
with me now to the car, I'll tell you the plan on the way to Tenohs flat."
"Okay." Harold answered defeated, knowing that he would be charged of murder if
Trevor really killed Haruka.
Haruka and Michiru laid on the couch in the
living room, cuddling and watching TV. Every now and then, Haruka would kiss
Michiru and whisper a soft "I love you" into her ear. Michiru never knew Haruka
could be such a gentle person, and she was delightfully surprised about that
fact. Hotaru sat on the carpet in front of the TV, sometimes turning her head
to look at her parents smiling. The peaceful atmosphere was destroyed when the
doorbell rang. "Oh no." Haruka moaned. "Just stay here, I'll get." Michiru
offered, already standing up. "Thanks, love." Haruka answered. Michiru smiled
at her and went to the door. Haruka laid back, closing he eyes, when suddenly
Michiru screamed in the hallway. Haruka sat bolt upright, jumped up and wanted
to run out. Before she even reached the door, Trevor appeared in front of her,
his fist smashing into her face, breaking her nose again. Haruka was thrown
back from the impact, fell over the table the stood behind her and laid on the
floor, holding her bleeding nose. Behind Trevor, Harold entered the room,
holding Michiru in front of him, her arms on her back in a firm grip. The
scalpel glistered in the light when Harold raised it to Michirus throat. Trevor
pulled out his gun and smiled at Haruka who was getting to her feet. "First
I'll make sure that you won't run away." He said, aimed and shot. The bullet
pierced Harukas leg all the way through, causing her to scream and fall down
again. Blood streamed from the shot in her leg and stained her pajama. "Papa!"
Hotaru screamed. "Papa?" Harold
thought to himself. "I didn't know that
she has a child…" "Haruka!" Michiru screamed, panicking. She struggled
against Harolds grip, Trevor turned around and slapped her. "Hold still, bitch.
Harold, let me take her. You'll give Tenoh the injection." Harold pulled out
the syringe and approached Haruka, who laid on the floor moaning. Trevor
grabbed Michiru in the meantime, touching her breast in the process. "We'll have
fun later." He whispered to the frightened girl. "As soon as your damn lover
here is dead." "Don't…you touch her." Haruka managed to say. Harold grabbed her
arm and ripped off the sleeve, exposing the bare skin. "Hold still now." He
commanded before looking Haruka directly into the eyes. "I'm sorry." He
whispered before injecting the poison.
"Nooo!" Michiru screamed when she saw
Haruka stiffening for a few seconds, then falling back with her eyes closed.
"Papa!" Hotaru cried, rushing over to Haruka. "He stopped to breathe." Harold
informed his brother, a hint of sadness in his voice. "One more minute and
he'll be dead." Trevor smiled happily, his arm wrapping around Michirus
shoulders and his hand covering her mouth. "Kill the girl." He then said. "She
saw to much." Harold grabbed his scalpel and turned around to Hotaru while
Trevor turned his back to him, leading Michiru into the bedroom. Michiru closed
her eyes; she didn't really mind what Trevor did to her, now that Haruka was
dead. Suddenly her captor stiffened, then let go. Michiru turned around only to
see Trevor looking at her with shocked eyes. Finally the insane man fell to the
floor. The scalpel stuck in his back, and there was only little blood around
it. Harold had stabbed it right into his brothers heart.
A/N: I know I'm mean, and I know you'll hate me
for this cliffhanger *laughs evilly* But I will leave it for you to find
out in the next chapter if Haruka dies or survives *maniac laughter*
Muahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!
