Chapter Six
By BlueRaven
A/n: Bear with me!! This is a weird story, I know T_T... And it only becomes weirder o_o;;.... anyway On, ON!!
***********************************************************************
Watari clicked away on his keyboard, his eyes fixed on the screen. Beside him on his desk laid a birth-certificate and basic information of the young man with the name Sato Himura.
The screen showed a picture of the boy and his medical data, criminal record, school record and so forth.
Watari took a sheet of paper and wrote down the important things from the many facts on the screen and in the files beside him. He wrote:
"Sato Himura. Age 17, born November 11th 1985 he goes to school in central Kyoto. His father is dead, his mother is in a mental hospital for severe schizophrenia, suicide attempts on several occasions and drug addiction. Sato Himura used to live in a foster home. He has been arrested on several occasions for shoplifting, and keeping of illegal weapons and drugs. He has currently just left from juvenile-prison and rehab after six months. His whereabouts are still unknown for the time being."
Sighing Watari placed down his pen and watched the screen again. The boy looked much too young for his age, he had haunted blue eyes and a shock of fiery red hair, very different from Omega's but still shockingly red. He was pale and had dark lines around his eyes.
Moving the mouse-arrow, Watari clicked 'Print Picture' and soon the noisy printer started printing the picture swiftly.
When the printer was finished he took the picture and fastened it to his scribbled sheet of paper and turned back to the screen.
He checked some more of the information present on the window he currently had up. Not much of interest showed, until he flipped over to the rehab window and read trough it. A piece of study written by a nurse caught his attention.
"Himura-chan is so nice. he never cause any trouble, he almost always spends his time surfing the web. He confided in me his online name. Omegasama (a/n: One of my user names on the web ^_^;;). I do not know why he choose that name though... I have a bad feeling about that name, as if something bad comes with it."
"Well well, his online name eh. Look 003 I told you I would find something interesting with this." Watari made a gesture towards the opened window on the screen, with a triumphant look on his face. 003 only hoed in reply, and perked herself on her master's head, hooting happily.
"Yeah I know, it's great! Let's do some research on his name, eh?" getting a "hoo", Watari set to work checking every database he could think of.
"Hm, this was harder then I thought, he's not active so often it seems... Wait! There's something..." stumbling across a website, he noticed that one of its members had the name Omegasama and that that person was online at the moment.
"BINGO, BINGO!!" clicking 'e-mail', Watari tapped a short message and sent it, then he turned off the computer and left his office. What he wrote was:
"Himura-san DO NOT call Omega! - A friend. Watari Yutaka." He did never see the reply.
"My 'friend', tonight at midnight the god shall be called and give me his power and destroy the wicked. - Omegasama."
*****
Watari sped down the corridor, he knew that he might still be able to catch up with Tatsumi, Tsuzuki and Hisoka before they left. Their leaving had been delayed a day because Konoue had insisted that Tatsumi had a complete check-up at the doctor's and then rested a while. Tsuzuki, being the ever worried puppy, stayed by Tatsumi's side, and that left Hisoka alone stopping him from going anyway (a/n: The travel-in-pairs rule that the shinnigamis have).
Skipping to a halt outside the hospital wing, Watari knocked gently on the door and entered. Tatsumi was resting on the bed, and beside him, sleeping leaning against the bed, was Tsuzuki. Hisoka was nowhere to be seen, and thinking the two sleeping figures looked too peaceful, Watari decided to go look for Hisoka first.
"Come, 003." He whispered and the tiny owl ruffled her feathers. He closed the door carefully and made his way to the only place he knew Hisoka would occupy himself at.
The library.
*****
Hisoka rested his head in his hand and sighed, with his other hand he flipped the pages of a thick volume about magical creatures. Though his thoughts was directed elsewhere.
"Tsuzuki, you baka... what are you and Tatsumi-san hiding? What happened? Why does Tatsumi-san's ki feel different... more... Dark?" Hisoka flipped another page and read the katakana spelling the foreign name.
"Omega, the Reaper."
"This is it. Omega!" he murmured and read the text below the name.
"Almost a thousand years ago, wars rained in Europe, along with the Black Death. During these turbulent times lived a warlock who kept to the creed of Satan. His name was Santiago. He lend his powers to anyone who would pay his fee. In the year 1194 he gave his power to one of the many roaming warlords. This lord demanded he give him the ultimate power, the ultimate killing monster. At first Santiago wouldn't do it, but when his daughter was killed he gladly gave in to the warlord's request.
"The ceremony took no time at all. The sacrifices was brought at once, and the words was for the first time carved and spoken. Out of fire and blood the spirit of the creature that would call itself Omega, was born. Santiago gave Omega a body by letting the spirit posses him. The creature Omega completely trapped Santiago's soul inside his mind and went havoc, destroying and killing everything in his path."
The text ended with a picture of an old painting, painted by one of the very few survivors of Omega's rampage.
"It's him... Omega." Hisoka whispered and read the text under the picture.
"Not one of Omega's caller's have ever survived, not one."
"'Not one...' Sato Himura what are you doing?" Hisoka closed the book and looked up just to meet the eyes of Watari an inch from his face with his owl perked on top of his head.
"AAHHH!!" Hisoka shrieked and jumped out of his chair scrambling backwards. "Watari! Don't do that, you almost scared me to my second death!"
"I'm sorry Bon. I just tried to see what you were reading. Gomen nasai... Hey, Hi-chan, I found some stuff on Himura, and I sent him a mail too."
"A Mail? You mean you spoke to him?" Hisoka asked and glared at Watari.
"Yeah, I sent him a mail and then I rushed here... I didn't really check for a reply... Um..." Watari scratched his head and 003 pecked him for his stupidity, Hisoka only shook his head.
"Watari... what did you find about Himura?" Hisoka said calmly and watched as Watari handed him the scribbled sheet of paper with the pictured fastened to it.
Hastily Hisoka eyed trough the sloppy Kanji and looked at the picture, memorising the looks of the boy.
"Hisoka.." Watari's voice was serious and his golden-brown eyes gleamed behind his glasses.
"Mmh?"
"What do you make of Tatsumi and Tsuzuki?"
"What do you mean, Watari-san?"
"Their feelings... There happened something to them, didn't it? They're closer then ever, aren't they?" Hisoka's eyes widened as he realised what his mind had been telling him the whole time, he didn't want to believe it, but the whole poisoning incident had brought Tsuzuki and Tatsumi closer then ever before. Did that mean that the night Hisoka had shared with Tsuzuki... meant nothing..?
"I... don't know Watari... I... I just don't know." Hisoka turned away from Watari's sympathetic look and shrugged. It wasn't until now that he realised how much Tsuzuki really meant to him, he had given himself to Tsuzuki once and that had been the most magical night in his life and after life. He loved Tsuzuki more then anything in the world, and seeing Tsuzuki and Tatsumi so close was painful to him... all to painful.
"I'm sorry, Hi-chan. I know how you feel, believe me. I do! (a/n: *grins* poor Watari... ^_^ he loves Tatsumi too...)" Watari said and placed his hand on Hisoka's shoulder. "Come on let's go and wake them and get going. We have to stop Himura from calling Omega." Hisoka nodded and the two of them left the newly renovated library.
*****
I feel... tired.
Inside I can still hear his blood, his 'cure' run trough my veins.
Omega.
I gave myself to him. Willingly, without a word of protest towards him. I told Tsuzuki I didn't want to, but... I had to if I wanted to live... and I know what Tsuzuki would do if I were to die... Kami I don't want to think of how he would take the loss of me or Hisoka or even Watari.
My Tsuzuki. My love, my life...
I notice the opening of the door and I know it's Watari. I don't want to talk to him now. What am I saying?!
"Wa-..." He's left.
"Kuso!" I swear and sit up. Just to be faced with the most beautiful, peaceful, sight I've ever seen in my entire life or afterlife.
My gorgeous, precious, Tsuzuki sleeps by my bed. I feel my cheeks burn by the sudden rush of blood to it.
I made Tsuzuki watch me and Omega... Omega made me face him... He... Tsuzuki touched me... Kissed me, Oh Kami!
"Tsuzuki..." I whisper softly and brush away some strands of silken Dark chocolate hair out from his face so I can see him better.
He shifts and smiles at my touch, and whisper, "Su... ki... da... Tat... sumi..." Oh Kami, I love you. I hope you won't look at me differently now, I mean... in a bad way... I do not wish to see sympathy in your eyes either. I'm... content, healed. Omega gave me something I've wanted to feel for a long time, but in your arms... You gave me pleasure though...
We need to go see the others and get to earth. I have to wake you Tsuzuki, I'm sorry.
"Tsuzuki... wake up." I shake him awake by gently touching his shoulder. He stirs and his eyes flutter open only to look and smile at me. Kami, you have such beautiful eyes, Tsuzuki.
"Tatsumi... you're awake now? I... fell asleep I guess..." he says and a slight pink hue stains his cheeks. I raise my hand and caress that lovely colour only to see it deepen.
"Yes, I'm awake now, Tsuzuki, and ready to finish our mission. We needs to get going, eh?" I say and look at him with my usual calm self. "Is there something wrong, Tsuzuki?" I ask as I notice the sudden silence.
He look at me with his amethyst eyes digging a hole into my soul making me feel guilty for something... or someone.
"You called my name the whole time, Tatsumi. You... shed tears when I touched you..." he pause and I can reel my face burn. "Do you really like me that much?" He has tears glittering in the corners of his eyes, I dry them away. "I don not LIKE you..." his eyes widen at my pause, "I love you, Tsuzuki Asato. But... I know you love Hisoka the way I want you to love me..." I trail off. I've said too much, I'm sounding bitter, and I'm not. Beloved Tsuzuki, do not think me cold and bitter.
"Tatsumi..." his hands are on either side of my head and he looks at me with the strangest, unreadable, look in his face. "How I feel for Hisoka is... protectiveness. The way you feel protectiveness for me, only... I don't love him that way. Not anymore..." 'Not anymore...'? He... what..? I... I... what?
"Eh?" is all I can squeeze forth, I mean he... what?
"I realised what my heart has tried to tell me for a long time... When I thought I'd lost you... When you stopped breathing for a long time... I cried out in such agony for my loss, for the loss of you." He pause and take a deep breath, "When I saw you with Omega, I... I felt jealousy. Such intense jealousy I thought I would die. That's why I kissed you and agreed on Omega's offer of bringing you more pleasure. I wanted you to think of only me, and no one else... I know that's selfish, but..." he trails off, his last words has been only millimetres from my face, I can feel his hot breath on my lips.
"Tsuzuki..." I hear myself whisper and then he kiss me. Such a sweet kiss, feather-light at first, teasing me to respond to his soft lips. I feel myself wrap my around him dragging him in for a deeper kiss, and he complies by parting his delicate lips and let my tongue in. Oh... his taste is so sweet, like the sweets he fancy.
I'm shaking as I feel his hands in my hair, my beloved.
Suddenly the door opens and in comes Hisoka and Watari. The both of them stops dead in their tracks as Tsuzuki and I slowly part, still holding on to eachother. By the looks on Hisoka's face he just had his heart broken... I can see him struggling on keeping his tears from falling and from bursting out in a fit of anger.
Watari... only looks at me with wide eyes. He looks so strange...
"Hisoka..." Tsuzuki's voice. He look at Hisoka who only shakes his head in denial. Poor boy, and I mean it. Watari heaves a heavy sigh and walk over to my bed, the side Tsuzuki's not occupying and hands me a paper with the Kanji, Sato Himura, scribbled on it. The mission. Watari has such a strange look in his golden eyes as he turn away from me without a word.
"I... I'm fine if you're happy, Tsuzuki, just don't ask or worry about me... Okay." Hisoka whisper and look at both of us with glittering green eyes. Tears I guess.
"Hisoka..." Tsuzuki again... Oh Kami, I can't take this! I don not wish to see Hisoka sad or angry as much as I don't want to see that in Tsuzuki or cheery Watari. They saw us kiss and I... I feel guilty and... evil for doing so, or rather, letting it happen. I wish I could crawl up and die.
"We need to get on with our mission. Come on, we have all the... facts we need." Hisoka says and he draws a shaky breath. I nod and Tsuzuki rise from his seat next to me and he looks sad again. I make my way out of the bed and look for my clothes. They're there on the chair next to the bed. I dress myself and fix on my glasses, pushing them up with my usual gesture as I turn to them. This will be a hard mission.
*****
The four shinnigamis walked the streets of Kyoto, their minds on standby for anything. It was night and the city was beautifully illuminated by a million lights and the billions of stars in the sky along with the moon, a blue moon.
The blue moon is a moon of magic, they say. During the light of the blue moon, magic is best worked. And a blue light was what cast shadows on the ground in places without human made light. It was in this light that the blood would stain the ground red and another severed body fall to it with a loud 'thud'. Soon the sound of a knife carving into flesh could be heard along with a young man's voice whispering the strange word. "Soh..." the sound of cutting flesh seized and steps could be heard walking away...
"Two more to go... you are too late 'friend' Watari Yataka-san, I will call forth the God and I will have my revenge for my father and sister's death against all. All who've ever stood in my path and all who'll ever stand in my path!" Himura's shout echoed through the street, sounding a hundred times stronger then intended.
The boy left the scene, walking through the blood staining the broken black asphalt. His pail hands trembled as he clutched a huge medieval sword closer to his chest. Its blade covered in the blood of its latest victim. Slowly the blood was sucked into the blade and the sword was clean once again.
::Two more, Himura... Just two more, boy.:: as the voice entered his mind Himura gasped sharply. He had never heard a voice like this before. It was silken and so manly, it sent a shiver of anticipation down his spine. This was the voice of Omega, it had to be.
"Omega..?" the boy whispered, his words coming in puffs of mist.
::Yes. You must hurry, there are coming some who might be able to stop you.::
"Yes I know, someone named Watari Yutaka, my 'friend', told me to stop your summoning. But... Are there more?" Himura turned a corner and continued down the dark streets.
::Oh yes, three more, four all in all with your friend. They are shinnigamis , they will stop you no matter what it they find you, so you must hurry.:: Himura felt the voice leave his mind and he came face to face with a young around his twenties. He had dark chocolate hair and violet eyes.
"Himura!?" the man gasped and took a step away, he reached inside his trench coat and pulled out a ofuda. Himura stared at the man for a long while before snapping angrily.
"Who are you, how do you know my name!?" Himura rose his sword with a frightening ease for such a skinny boy.
"I'm Tsuzuki Asato, I've come to stop you. Please stop the summoning, you don't know what kind of person Omega really is. I... I don't want you or anyone else to get hurt so please lower that sword." Tsuzuki waved his hand with a gesture of giving him the sword.
"Never!" Himura cried and with lightning speed he attacked the shocked Tsuzuki. The blade slashed the shinnigami over the chest, tearing up a deep gash across his chest, breaking through his ribcage, crushing his bones.
Tsuzuki fell screaming to the ground, blood pooled around his trembling body, he hadn't really thought of Himura having a huge sword to attack him with. He swa Himura's feet run past his vision, 'Why did I leave the others..?' Was the last thing he thought before it went black.
To Be Continued...
*****
Oki, so this chapter was confusing, ne? It was confusing for me to write ^_^;;. But I'm starting to figure out how this is going to end. ^_^;;
Oki, about Tsuzuki showing up... he went ahead of the others (For some yet unknown reason.) yeah yeah, anyway. And he just happened upon Himura. And we all know how that went! ^_^...
Until next chapter, have a nice day.

He shifts and smiles at my touch, and whisper, "Su... ki... da... Tat... sumi..." Oh Kami, I love you. I hope you won't look at me differently now, I mean... in a bad way... I do not wish to see sympathy in your eyes either. I'm... content, healed. Omega gave me something I've wanted to feel for a long time, but in your arms... You gave me pleasure though...
We need to go see the others and get to earth. I have to wake you Tsuzuki, I'm sorry.
"Tsuzuki... wake up." I shake him awake by gently touching his shoulder. He stirs and his eyes flutter open only to look and smile at me. Kami, you have such beautiful eyes, Tsuzuki.
"Tatsumi... you're awake now? I... fell asleep I guess..." he says and a slight pink hue stains his cheeks. I raise my hand and caress that lovely colour only to see it deepen.

"Tatsumi..." his hands are on either side of my head and he looks at me with the strangest, unreadable, look in his face. "How I feel for Hisoka is... protectiveness. The way you feel protectiveness for me, only... I don't love him that way. Not anymore..." 'Not anymore...'? He... what..? I... I... what?
"Eh?" is all I can squeeze forth, I mean he... what?
"I realised what my heart has tried to tell me for a long time... When I thought I'd lost you... When you stopped breathing for a long time...

Watari heaves a heavy sigh and walk over to my bed, the side Tsuzuki's not occupying and hands me a paper with the Kanji, Sato Himura, scribbled on it. The mission.

"I... I'm fine if you're happy, Tsuzuki, just don't ask or worry about me... Okay." Hisoka whisper and look at both of us with glittering green eyes. Tears I guess.

The blue moon is a moon of magic, they say. During the light of the blue moon, magic is best worked. And a blue light was what cast shadows on the ground in places without human made light. It was in this light that the blood would stain the ground red and another severed body fall to it with a loud 'thud'. Soon the sound of a knife carving into flesh could be heard along with a young man's voice whispering the strange word. "Soh..." the sound of cutting flesh seized and steps could be heard walking away...
"Two more to go... you are too late 'friend' Watari Yataka-san, I will call forth the God and I will have my revenge for my father and sister's death against all. All who've ever stood in my path and all who'll ever stand in my path!" Himura's shout echoed through the street, sounding a hundred times stronger then intended.
The boy left the scene, walking through the blood staining the broken black asphalt. His pail hands trembled as he clutched a huge medieval sword closer to his chest. Its blade covered in the blood of its latest victim. Slowly the blood was sucked into the blade and the sword was clean once again.
::Two more, Himura... Just two more, boy.:: as the voice entered his mind Himura gasped sharply. He had never heard a voice like this before. It was silken and so manly, it sent a shiver of anticipation down his spine. This was the voice of Omega, it had to be.
"Omega..?" the boy whispered, his words coming in puffs of mist.
::Yes. You must hurry, there are coming some who might be able to stop you.::
"Yes I know, someone named Watari Yutaka, my 'friend', told me to stop your summoning. But... Are there more?" Himura turned a corner and continued down the dark streets.
::Oh yes, three more, four all in all with your friend. They are shinnigamis , they will stop you no matter what it they find you, so you must hurry.:: Himura felt the voice leave his mind and he came face to face with a young around his twenties. He had dark chocolate hair and violet eyes.
"Himura!?" the man gasped and took a step away, he reached inside his trench coat and pulled out a ofuda. Himura stared at the man for a long while before snapping angrily.
"Who are you, how do you know my name!?" Himura rose his sword with a frightening ease for such a skinny boy.
"I'm Tsuzuki Asato, I've come to stop you. Please stop the summoning, you don't know what kind of person Omega really is. I... I don't want you or anyone else to get hurt so please lower that sword." Tsuzuki waved his hand with a gesture of giving him the sword.
"Never!" Himura cried and with lightning speed he attacked the shocked Tsuzuki. The blade slashed the shinnigami over the chest, tearing up a deep gash across his chest, breaking through his ribcage, crushing his bones.
Tsuzuki fell screaming to the ground, blood pooled around his trembling body, he hadn't really thought of Himura having a huge sword to attack him with. He swa Himura's feet run past his vision, 'Why did I leave the others..?' Was the last thing he thought before it went black.
To Be Continued...

Oki, so this chapter was confusing, ne? It was confusing for me to write ^_^;;. But I'm starting to figure out how this is going to end. ^_^;;
Oki, about Tsuzuki showing up... he went ahead of the others (For some yet unknown reason.) yeah yeah, anyway. And he just happened upon Himura. And we all know how that went! ^_^...
Until next chapter, have a nice day.
