Fear | Chapter Two
They stood up and walked back towards the house. The sun was setting and Rain decided to take a nice hot bath. Domon opened the back door and let her inside first. "Thanks again Domon. I really appreciate you not wanting to leave me for what I did to you." "No problem. I love you too much to ever leave you." He gave her a small peck on the cheek. Rain smiled comfortably and made her way to the bathroom. She turned the water on fairly warm. She decided to make it a little hotter and so she did. She undressed and put her bath robe on. When the tub was full of steaming water, she took it off and stepped inside. "Ahhhh..." She sighed. She closed her eyes and let the warmth take over her. I hope I never have to go through that experience again. I don't know if I could take the torment in my soul if I actually did end up killing him. I would surely die of grief. My heart would positively shatter. Rain thought as she lay there with her eyes closed. She relaxed there for about thirty minutes, not thinking of a single thing. Domon thought the house was too quiet so he came up to check on her.
"Hey, Rain? You ok? I haven't even heard a single splash of water." Domon said as he knocked on the door. "Hn. Oh, yes Domon. I'm fine. I'm just relaxing. I think I am gonna continue that book. I have to know what happens. It's simply driving me mad." Rain replied with a far away tone in her voice. "All right. If you're sure." Domon answered her with worry in his voice. Rain noticed this. "I think it was just a phase. 'Cause when I heard your voice in the forest where I took you, I snapped out of my trance. Something about it brought me back. I'm safe with you, Domon." Rain assured him. Domon gave the door a, I-hope-you're-right look and walked to the kitchen. He was hungry. Rain figured it was time to get out and so she did. She wrapped a towel around her waist and went to her and Domon's room. She picked out some nice summer pj's out of her closet and put them on. She walked to her dresser where Fear rested on her jewelry box. She hesitated but then carefully picked it up. She ran her hand over the cover of it. She turned it over and looked at the picture on the back. It was a picture of a ghastly figure of a woman. She had ebony eyes. Lifeless and dead. Her lips were blood red and she had the fangs of a Tiger. The woman wore a Black ripped, sleeveless dress. It was filled with shreds and slits. She had blue-ish colored skin and Black long nails. She was standing there with ax in her hand. Under the picture were the words, "...There is nothing to fear, but me...".
After she read those words, she looked up at her mirror. At first she saw her reflection but for a split second she saw her reflection but she looked exactly like the woman on the back of the book. Rain dropped the book and took a couple steps backward and clasped her hands on her mouth. Her eyes were wide and just stared at the mirror. Not wanting to see what she saw again, she picked the book up and sat down on the bed, facing opposite of the mirror. She opened the book to chapter two and began reading.
------An hour later------
Domon was siting on the couch with a coke in his hand. His eyes were filled with thought about Rain. Rain was plastered on his brain. Rain. I hope you're right about you're trying to kill me be just a phase. I'm really worried for you. I almost lost you once! I don't want to almost lose you again. You're too precious to me. I can't see myself living without you. You're the love of my life. I absolutely cherish you. You're my guidance. Rain... Domon's thoughts were interrupted when he saw Rain enter the room. Domon's jaw hit the floor. He couldn't believe what she was wearing. She was wearing a black dress that went all the way to her ankles. She had a slit up her dress on the side of the right leg all the way up to her thigh. She had blood-red lip stick on and her eyeliner and mascara was piled on thick. Her skin had a blue tint to it and her nails were painted black. Her eyes had changed from the sapphire blue to a coal black. She looked at him and he looked at her. They stared what seemed like forever. Domon's eyes were full of confusion while Rains were unfeeling and lifeless. Thunder could be heard from outside. The power went out and the room fell dark. It was pitch black. Lightening flashed outside and filled the room. Rains eyes looked like black pockets of emptiness. She had a evil frown on her scarlet lips. Her brows expressed an uncaring and bored expression. "Rain?" Domon looked at her with terror in his brown eyes. He was terribly horrified. This wasn't the Rain he knew. The room went black again and his heart was beating fast. He could hear himself breathing hard. He looked around, only moving his eyes. He began to quaver. He finally stood up. Lightening flashed again and this time, Rain's dress was ripped and shredded like the woman's dress and yet again the room went black. Domon's knees began to give way. He fell to the floor with a thud that seemed louder than what it was. He heard foot steps around him. "Domon!" Rain yelled as she held an ax up in the air. The room was filled with lightening once more and Domon's eyes grew wide. Paralyzed with fear, he just sat there. At the last minute he dodged her blow at him with the ax. She looked at him and aimed at him again. This time, she threw it at him. He quickly picked it up and threw it back. That was a mistake. She caught it by the handle and quickly made a dive for his throat. Domon was almost headless but he shied that one with only seconds to spare. His heart was beating faster than ever and he was terrified for his life. He had to do something quick but he didn't want to hurt her. His mind raced. He looked around and listened gingerly for the sound of black heals clicking against the wood floor. Finally he came to a conclusion, this wasn't really Rain. Just her body. He had to fight back if he wanted to survive any longer.
"Rain! Or whoever you are. I want to fight you! Drop your ax and fight me with your fists! C'mon!" Domon challenged the nightmare Rain. He heard something hit the floor. It was heavy. It had to be the ax but he wasn't sure because the room was still dark. The front door opened and she was standing in the door way. Her eyes were still dead and icy. "Fine. I will fight you Domon Kasshu. But you will die." The words left Rain's mouth but it wasn't her voice. It was more hoarse and cold. Evil. It was deep and unloving. This voice did not know love. And neither did she. She jumped towards him and picked him up by the throat. He was an inch off the ground when she made her way to the front door. The door swung open and she tossed him outside in the rain and it wasn't long before she was out there with him. Domon hit the ground hard but got up quickly. Her strength! It's amazing! I've never ever felt anything like it! Domon thought to himself. "I thought you wanted to fight me." Domon turned around and there she was. She wasn't any taller than him and they looked at each other eye to eye. Domon saw her heart. It was screaming, "Domon! Domon! She's got me! Help me, Domon! Fight with all you got! I'll be fine! Hurry and defeat her! Domon, I love you! Domon!" But her eyes told him her heart was lying. "This is me, Rain Mikamura. I've always been this way, Domon. Always. I've just finally decided it was time to show my self. My true colors. Don't you believe me, Domon?" Rains voice was now the same as her normal tone but it was more sinister and her face was still emotionless.
"You're lying! Rain would never ever try to kill me!! No matter what! I WILL GET HER BACK! MARK MY WORDS, I WILL!" Domon promised himself. "Whatever. You just wait and see. Eventually you'll be dead." And with that Rains face had gone back to normal. Her blue sapphires where back and her skin was again tan. Her clothing had gone back to her summer pj's and the rain stopped. The moon shined through and the power came back on. Rain fell to the floor. She was very, very weak. She could hardly stand up. Domon picked her up and carried her back inside. "Domon..." Rain whispered. "Shhhh... You need to rest. Don't speak another word." And with that they went to bed.
