Angel: I don't own sm.
Sage: Nope.
Angel: Isn't he soooooo kawaii! Glomps
Sage: Not again.
Hotaru sighed. "Since we're stuck, can we talk?" She asked. Hotaru looked at him from her position atop him. "I'm sorry we're stuck, by the way."
"I suppose. About what." He said with a sigh. "And I guess it's not entirely your fault."
"First, why are you so mean everyone?" ~Especially me…~ "And it isn't at all my fault."
Yaten turned his eyes away, and said nothing. "Yaten?" He wouldn't look her in the eye but she could tell something was wrong. "Yaten, what's wrong?"
"It's a long story." He finally said.
Hotaru raised a brow, "We have time."
"When I was little, I had it all. I was the baby of the family, my mother pampered me, and my dad tolerated me more then my siblings. I had friends, and family. I had everything I ever wanted. But then it all came crashing down, my world was destroyed, I was ripped from my home and sent to find our princess. Everything was taken from me. Everything. The only thing I have left is my dream. But that dream won't come true."
Hotaru listened mesmerized by his voice. "Why won't it come true?"
"Because I won't let anyone become close to me. Everyone that has ever been close, has ended up dead." He said nothing more.
"You have done well Crimson." Akuma said stroking her hair. Crimson sat with her head across her master's lap.
"Sire, what is my next mission?" She asked.
"You shall wait. The next move shall be Scarlet's." He chuckled. "Patience, love. We shall all have our revenge on the moon witch. Soon…"
"Sire, shall I commence with the next of the plan?" Scarlet said, entering.
"Yes, but wait until they are weak and unsuspecting. Then strike."
"Yes sire." Scarlet said.
"First we took her 'friends', and destroyed her so called 'love'. Next we shall have her little guardians, and her protector, then once we have them, we shall have… her." He laughed evilly. (An: Think Doctor Tomeo.)
"Sire, you are so evil." Crimson said.
"Yes master, so very evil." Scarlet sighed, pushing her blonde hair from her eyes.
(Another room)
"Why do I feel so bad? Because I didn't want to betray them? Or because I don't like our 'master." Chartreuse looked out the window into the black void they lived in.
"By birth, I am an outer. Maybe that's why I feel like I'm not doing what's right. But still, I think, I shouldn't be here. But there." She sighed, and let her eyes drift closed.
"I am sorry Ser. I really am." (An: I know most said they didn't want the inners good again, but I was thinking of having just Jupiter become good again. Technically she is an outer, since her planet is part of the outer solar system. Tell me what you think.)
"I'm sorry."
Yaten looked up at Hotaru. Her eyes closed tight. "I'm so sorry. It's probably no consolation, but I know how it feels. To loose everything, be left alone. But you need to let others get close. It really helps. Being alone forever isn't fun, I lived like that for along time. During the silver millennium, when I was possessed, even for a while after, I still was alone. But I am so happy to have opened up." Hotaru let a tear fall down her cheek.
"But you lost your friends again." Yaten said.
"Yes, I did. The first friends I've ever had, I lost. But I guess destiny planned it that way. And think of it this way, if I hadn't have met them, I'd have never known friendship. I lost Rini, the Inners. But it doesn't matter still had friendship. That's what keeps me going. I know I had it once, and I can have it again." Hotaru buried her head against his shoulder. "You have to let people get close again. It's the only way you'll be happy."
Yaten stared at her. His eyes shining with unshed tears. He wouldn't cry because of this girl. A girl who'd know darkness her whole life, and yet still fought to live in the light. He just wouldn't.
"I don't know how." He whispered after an eternity of silence.
Hotaru looked at him, "I'll show you…."
Sappy, yes. But I couldn't help it. I like sap. sigh R&R minna-san! Ja ne, Angel
Sage: Nope.
