Bonds of destiny: Chapter6
Yuzuki walked slowly down a narrow and dark alley, well knowing that one of the Dragons of Earth stalked her. She didn't care. None of the Dragons had the power to kill her. And if they had they were not allowed to do it by destiny itself, not until after the promised day, anyway.
Seishiro watched his prey in silent bewilderment. The girl seemed too careless to the dangers of a city at night. He had followed her the last thirty minutes and decided that this alley was going to be his best chance to.talk to her.
"Lost your way?"asked a deep voice that seemed to come from right out of nowhere.
Yuzuki had to hid a smile. Her hunter came out in the open, at last. Very amused she discovered a few pink sakura petals flowing to her from somewhere at her front. "It had to be him. I heard that he was possessive about the Sumeragi but that dramatic appearance just doesn't fit into my version of a cool and heartless Sakurazukamori."she thought drily.
"No, thank you, Sir. This is just a short cut I use."she answered his question aloud.
Eventually the Sakurazukamori appeared out of the shadows right in front of her. "That may be a short cut to be used at day, but surely not a way a pretty young girl like you should use at night. Tokyo is not a safe place for little girls to walk through at night." He repeated Subaru's earlier warning.
Yuzuki returned his smile in kind, deciding to play the role of the innocent student as long as he played the role of the friendly and casually passerby. "That's exactly what everyone I met so far had told me."she replied.
Seishiro eyed the girl in front of him amused. "Is she really that careless and silly? My tree hasn't had a young girl for a while. I can only hope that her stupidity won't inflict on the it."he considered silently. "You should've paid more attention to their warnings."he said.
Yuzuki raised her gaze until she looked straight into his mismatched eyes, with eyes as emotionless and cold as his own. She grew tired of this little game. "The Sumeragi wasn't quite convincing, you know." Her voice was full of mockery.
Seishiro's eye flashed with anger and he closed the gap between them with a few quick steps.
Yuzuki only smirked about this. "Aha, but he claims to feel nothing for him! That I will believe when hell is frozen. Though he won't get a chance to finish his game with the Sumeragi. You may not yet be aware of it, my friend, but your little 'prey' is not attached to you anymore." "What a handsome young man that is! And so caring, he even wanted to pay me a taxi."she provoked him even more. All the time her eyes stayed cold and hard, not showing any signs of fear or amusement, though her voice kept that mocking tone.
Since the instant her gaze had met his, Seishiro was unable to move. A totally knew sensation ran threw his body. It was fear, something a coldhearted murderer like him shouldn't be able to feel. Yet here he was, the most feared assassin of all, frightened of a little girl. "How? Those eyes are colder than even 'Kamui's'. Who is she? She isn't a Seal.and most certainly no Angel." Somehow he managed to open his mouth and talk to her in his normal conversationly manner: "Subaru-kun is mine. I won't share my favourite pet with anyone, especially not with a silly little high school student!"
The threat was obvious but Yuzuki only laughed at him. "Getting jealous, aren't we? My, my, my, are we possessive! We know both full well that the cute Sumeragi isn't interested a bit in women. It's not me that you should fear as a rival. Just a last warning before I leave, Seishiro Sakurazuka. Don't even think of playing games with his mind and heart again!" With one last menacingly glare she walked past him.
Seishiro stood there like stunned. He couldn't believe it. A girl, a little high school brat dared to threaten HIM, the Sakurazukamori! Although she knew that he was the most feared assassin of Japan! Even more embarrassing he believed her to make her threat come true. Those cold blue eyes did not joke. During her last words his senses had almost screamed at him that, in the end, he had found a hunter who was more dangerous than him. "She knows about Subaru-kun and me, yet she warn me off. Is she that deep in love with him?" Seishiro shook his head. "No, those eyes don't know any emotion least of all love. So why did she warn me off? Who the hell is she?!" He decided to ask 'Kamui' about it.
Soon the alley was empty except for some lonely sakura petals which looked more than displaced on the dirty street.
