Crystal of Love

RK and YYH don't belong to me

Author's notes: Okay, now enough with the good side's part of the story, so, this chapter is dedicated to the Narks and the Darkness! And, sense Omochi hasn't answered the thing yet, I'll make it an evil person who has no real sex. The things writers do to get their fic moving along… sigh. Oh well, so Omochi, if you want to change anything (i.e. hair/eye color and sex) tell me in a review, you are still evil though.

On word with the rest of the fic!

Chapter 5: The story of hate

~*~*~*~*

For thousands of years, we had been reduced to the shitless pile of nothing that became the world below. But with the Spawn—with her—we had something… and no, nothing but the darkness of your master getting pissed when he would be able to take form and kill us all off when he finds out we let his daughter-wife escape right out under our noises.

Life was just all fucked up for us down below. Except for those of us above, the evil ones who didn't know—nor understand—our traditions of the darkness. None of them really understood what we cared for about it—no history in them it at all! Nothing…

"Mita! We must get her back!" Hissed Omochi, the sexless creature under my care. No one would have guessed that it knew all my plains about life, no one. I was too in closed for that to get out, and only it was able to do so.

"I agree, but at the moment, we can only take her by force. Her bond with her young dragon-lover will destroy everything if we do so by force."

"Dragon lover…?" Bright pink eyes went wide as it thought the words over.

"Yes, the boy, Himura Kenshin, he is dragon, has been sense he allowed the dragon spirit into the injured dragon into him… they formed, became one, the same man. And destroying the precious bond they have with their small lover, our spawn, will bring the dragon out who will be out of control." Simple answer, I know, but the reason behind it is true, the dragon would be merciless.

"But what shall we do? We can't possibly get her to come on her own with out trying by force."

"Illusions will work juts fine… make her believe she is following her husband and she will follow with out reason."

"Will that not brake the trust?"

"No. Now leave me, I am tired… no wait, stay, I wish to tell you a story." Omochi sat down by my chair in the darkroom. And I begun, "Over one thousand years ago, when I was a small boy, I knew a young woman, she was the most beautiful woman in our village, and all the men wanted her, but she was already married. I remember seeing her one day, her belly full of child, picking flowers while humming. I went up to her, and gave her a small flower I had picked. She thanked me, her green eyes smiling.

"The next day, I went to see her again, but instead of her, I met her daughter, which was impossible, for the small girl looked like she was four years old, and her mother was still pregnant with her. She had the longest raven hair and brightest blue eyes I had ever seen. I fell in love with her. The end of the day had come too soon that day, and the next, I found no one. When I got home, I found out that Rini—the woman who was the child's mother—was giving birth. I found that out from my mother. When I was able to see the baby, I found the same pair of eyes belonging to the girl I had met in the field. Her name, Kaoru."

"Our messiah?" Omochi said, leaning forward and looking at me with wide eyes full of wonder.

"Yes, she was a vibrant child full of wonder and life. Then one day, the war came, and the young able men of our village left to serve our country in the time of battle. Unknown to us, our village was attacked. And Kaoru was rapped, beaten and the only who survived. She was reborn from that day on, turned from a 6 year-old into the most beautiful woman in the world! Also the most deadly. Revenge was the only thing she wanted—new!—from that day on.

"She took a sword from one of the few fallen shoulders of the raiders, and hunted them down, slaying them all to rot in hell. But she wanted more, she wanted to kill those of us who had left, and she did, one by one, we all died. Her hands didn't do it all though, she brought a group of out laws together, promising them revenge if they went with her, and she did keep her promise, and more died, all assassinations planed by her after days of watching and learning our daily routines."

"What about you?"

"She killed me, but I came back—living dead so to speak—because I was obsessed with her power. The strength she had was unbelievable! Power like hers didn't exist, and sense it did, I wanted it to belong to me. For it to be all mine.

"I wanted it all… but it was too late for me to do so. She was in love, with a black dragon with hair that matched his fiery breath. And both were madly in love, a bond no one could break, except for death, or so I thought. I challenged the dragon, and killed him, but the dragon part of the soul escaped death and traveled through time to form with his future self. That is the Himura Kenshin we have in this time.

"As for Kaoru, she despised me more then anything, and sentenced me the form of the old man you see before you now… this wrinkled form is what she gave me as punishment to the crime I committed. And she tried to commit suicide, but wasn't able to when the darkness took her body. Our lord, master, and god, took her body and turned her back into a 4 year-old child, and made her sleep for years upon years until the day, the fateful day, that he brought her back to us—to me. I could finally have her."

"Are you going to get her back then?"

"Yes, I will have you and your minions do it, with illusions, as I said, make her believe she is following her Kenshin and snag her when she least expects it. How does that sound?"

"Oh, perfect Mita! I will get on it right away!"

"Good… just good…"

Kaoru woke to the warmth of her and Kenshin's quilt blanket, and her husband behind her, holding her close to his body. She felt loved in his warm embrace, but she also felt like she forgot something, something important… but she didn't remember what it was. Some thing inside of her told her not to push it and she did, snuggling closer into her lover's hold and falling back to sleep.

AN: Okay, that's chapter 5, done and done for good, hopefully, unless Omochi decides to review for this story again.

Jason M. Lee: Kenshin is a dragon, or a semi-dragon at the moment.

Tsuki-sama: You'll show up again in the next chapter, where you're most likely going to hit on Enishi-sama. He's my fav. character to, but Hiko-sama is way better!

Thank you for reviewing and I will hopefully start working on another chapter soon!
