Miaka was standing in what seemed like a field. The grass was long and there were a few flowers here and there. She looked around but saw no one. The sky suddenly got dark with clouds.
'What's going on?' she asked herself. Then she saw a man covered by shadows.
"Dare…?" she asked. The man stepped out from the shadows.
Miaka gasped when she saw whom it was. "H-Hotohori?"
Then, another figure appeared to the right of Hotohori. "T-Tamahome?" Hotohori turned to face Tamahome. They each took out a sword. They stared at each other for a while. Then they attacked each other. Miaka could only watch in fear. "Iie… This can't be happening… It's just like that time… Stop…onegai…" she pleaded.
It was no use. Hotohori and Tamahome were still fighting. Then another person appeared. It looked like a young girl. The girl was standing next to where Hotohori was. Miaka started walking towards them, when she heard an evil laugh. The fight was still going on. "Who's there?" she asked. She saw a flash of light starting to glow. Then a ball of energy launched straight towards Hotohori.
There was a blinding flash of light.
"Celina!"
When the light disappeared, Miaka saw the girl in front of Hotohori.
"Celina!?" Hotohori repeated the girl's name. She had blocked the attack with his body. She fell back on the Hotohori's lap. Tamahome came running to them. Tears started running down the Hotohori's cheek. One landed on the girl's cheek. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up at him. With her hand, she reached up and wiped his tears.
"Don't cry…Hotohori." She said softly.
"Doushite…?" he managed to ask him. "Why did you get in the way?"
She just smiled. "Because… I love you…"
"Hold on!" Tamahome finally said. "Hold on!"
Celina looked at Hotohori again and smiled. "Z-Zutto…aishiteru…Hotohori… zutto…" she managed to say to him.
"Don't talk like that!" Hotohori said through watery eyes.
Miaka was shocked at what she was seeing. She was so shocked she couldn't move.
Hotohori held on tight to the young girl. "Don't leave me alone Celina…onegai…" He watched as Celina closed her eyes. "Celina…Iie…"
Miaka was crying as well.
"Celina…"Hotohori whispered. "IIE!!!"
Miaka heard that evil laugh again.
'Hotohori…' she said silently.
~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~
Miaka woke up. She was breathing heavily.
"Doushita?" asked Tamahome. He had woken up when she sat up.
"It's nothing." For some reason Tamahome didn't believe her.
"Are you sure?" Miaka just nodded.
"Don't worry, Tamahome. Let's go back to sleep…" Tamahome smiled at her and went back to sleep.
'What was that dream?' she asked herself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a large, dark room there was a tall man with long, black hair that reached his waist and golden eyes. He was sitting in what looked like a golden thrown. He had a glass of wine in his right hand. There was an image showing Miaka and the others.
"Those fools! They think they can live in peace now." He grinned and took a drink from his wine. "Soon… very soon." He laughed.
A person appeared in front of him. It looked like a young man. He had long hair that was tied back. He was wearing black clothes. He knelt down in front of the man that was sitting down.
"Ah, my brave warrior." The man on the thrown said. "Come forward." He commanded.
As ordered, the warrior stood up and walked closer to the thrown.
"She those people and the girl?" he said pointing at the image. "You know what to do…And don't fail me… Understand?"
"Hai." The warrior backed away and bowed. Then he disappeared. There was silence again. The room was dark; there were no lights. The man took another drink from his wine. Then he laughed evilly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 "Ohayo, Tamahome"
"Ohayo, Miaka." Tamahome walked into the kitchen where Miaka was making breakfast.
"How do you want your eggs?" she asked him.
"Scrambled please."
He went and sat down at the table. She went and placed two plates on the table. When she sat down, Tamahome spoke. "Miaka…"
She looked up at him. "What is it?"
He took a breath. "What was wrong with you last night?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well… you looked pale and out of breathe. Did you have a nightmare?"
"Uh, yeah. I nightmare. That's it, I had a nightmare."
"Are you sure it was just that?" He looked at her a bit concerned.
"Don't worry, Tamahome. I'm fine." She began eating. 'Please don't ask me any more questions, Tamahome…'
They were quiet the rest of the time.
'What was that dream about anyway? Hotohori's gone. And who was that girl? I need to find out…'
Tamahome noticed she was spaced out, but didn't bother asking her any more questions.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There was a tall man with long hair in a dark room. He was just standing there, waiting for the right moment.
"Suzaku no Miko…" he thought for a moment. "Miaka…" he paused. "You'll pay for what you did to me.…I swear it! …Hnn… I have a mission to complete. I won't let Lord Shin down." He pulled out his sword and started practicing. He stopped and put his hands in front of him holding the sword. "Soon… You're end will come soon… Suzaku o Miko… Suzaku Seishi… I'll destroy you all with my bare hands." He grinned at the thought of coming face to face with Miaka and the others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chichiri was in his apartment when he sensed something strange. 'What is this strange power I sense?' he asked himself. He started getting worried. 'I need to talk to everyone.' He stood up and went to his phone. He dialed Miaka's number and waited for someone to pick up
"Moshi Moshi?" Miaka's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Uh, Miaka?"
"Hai?"
"It's me…Chichiri."
Chichiri! I'm glad to finally hear from you!"
"Oh, yeah. Sorry about that."
"Don't worry."
"Uh, actually…I called because I need to talk to you and the others about something important."
"Sure. I'll tell Tamahome." She paused. "Chichiri?"
"Hai?"
"Are you alright?" Chichiri didn't know what to say. He didn't want to lie to her. But he had to.
"H-Hai." 'Sorry Miaka.'
"Well…alright. Where do you want to meet?"
"At your house, if it's alright with…"
"Of course. We'll meet you here."
"Ok. Ja na."
"Ja ne, Chichiri."
He hung up. 'What is going on? What is this power?' He was having a hard time trying to figure it out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shin was still sitting on his thrown. He called out for his warrior.
The long haired warrior appeared in front of him. He knelt down and bowed to Shin.
"Yes, my Lord?"
Shin smiled. "It is time for you to pay a visit to the Suzaku no Miko and the Suzaku Seishi." He paused. He stood up and went to the warrior making stand too. "Remember what I told you, Kei." He looked at him in the eyes. "Don't fail me."
"I won't."
Shin grinned.
"Good. Now go."
Kei bowed to him, then disappeared.
Shin was left alone once again.
"Suzaku no Miko…Suzaku Seishi…soon…your end will be soon…"
