Tsuzuki and the Poisonous Sweets

Chapter Three: The One that hurts

A/N: Since it's our sem break here…its time I finally update this again…a big apology I kind of got a little carried away with school and all. I also found myself lost with the real written plot so here I go again editing my stuff and all…thanks for those who've read this…please do review…thanks!!!

~*start*~

Two days have passed, Hisoka continued to walk his way, searching for the mysterious ornament he long to see. He wanted so much to finish this journey, mostly to come back to that small house he stayed one night. And to see the man he met by chance.

Unconsciously he pulled the piece of ornament from his pocket and held it tightly.

"Tsuzuki Asato…who are you?"

How can you change my life so easily without effort? How did you make me change in such a short time? Why did I feel this way ever since I laid my eyes on you? Have we met before?

And as the sun illuminated and touched the piece of ornament, two colors came to view and with it two paths unfold. A blue one leading back to where he came from and a red one leading to a place unknown.

Finally, Hisoka took notice that the piece of ornament was a part of his journey…it was a crystal tear.

"Thank you…" Hisoka whispered softly.

I promise, I will come back for you, Tsuzuki…I will come back…

And with a silent promise, Hisoka continued the trek he started following the red light…believing it will lead him to the keeper of the crystal tears.

"Hisoka…"

/Music playing sweetly…

A mere child stood…dark brown hair and amethyst orbs clad in his tuxedo.

Is that me?

Voices so many of them…

"Prince Asato…"

"Tsuzuki…"

"Asato…"

Memories? Why are you calling me?

Another child…younger…light brown hair…emerald eyes…clad in his tuxedo as well…

Hisoka…

Hisoka…

Hisoka…

The child was smiling…

"This is Prince Kurosaki…"

"Prince Asato…"

Kurosaki…

Hisoka!

I met you…before, Hisoka…Kurosaki…

Screams, shouts…I don't remember…I don't want to remember…pain…

"Get away…"

"Leave my son…"

"Get lost…"

Hisoka…

I ran away…three years later…

I ran away…

What happened?

I don't remember…well…/

Tears slowly cascaded down his face…it was Hisoka after all. That was why he felt something when they met, something in his heart…his memory.

After that party, he remembered meeting Hisoka again and then something happened. He can't recall but he was sure that was why some of the voices pushed him away.

It was him…the fist one who did not pretend even if he himself was a prince. And I let him go…I let him go when I finally found him…

Tsuzuki held on the crystal tear. This was the only thing that bound Hisoka and him together.

I was so stupid to let you go…I should've come instead…I should've listened to my heart…my first instinct…damn it!

'Cause I love you…

And his tears continued to flow in silent prayer for his return. He regretted the fact that he let him leave that day.

"Hisoka…come back…I need you…"

++++

"I need you…"

Hisoka immediately halted; he was heading back to Babylon when he heard a voice. He has collected the crystal tears.

"Tsuzuki…"

It was like he felt Tsuzuki…but that was impossible, wasn't it. It just can't be…he was nearly at the palace gates. He can visit him again, he might just be imagining things since he miss him so much.

He entered the green fields of his kingdom and immediately went to their castle.

"Open up."

He went down his horse and headed to his father, the King to report his successful journey. He wanted this to end fast; he needed to see Tsuzuki. Hisoka doesn't know why, he just wanted to see him.

"I've found the crystal tears…"

"Good, we will need them," his father said, formally.

"I'm sorry but after I have delivered this to you, I am leaving once again," Hisoka said.

"…But why Hisoka."

"That is a business I have to attend to. My return will be uncertain, weeks, months…I don't know depending on how long I would take. I just need to get away from here, from this kingdom," Hisoka said.

"No! You are the Prince of Babylon you cannot reject your position, your responsibilities," his father replied.

"I'm sorry but you can do nothing to change my mind," Hisoka stated.

And with no more than a good-bye, he left the castle and headed back to where his heart aches.

Oriya heavily headed to the village, his King pertained to.

Damn, why can't he just choose me instead of a nobody? Damn it, I'm also good-looking, women fall head over heel for me. Such a pity they don't know I like Muraki. Damn it!

Oriya squinted his eyes left and right, but he could not see Tsuzuki.

Damn this is getting irritating. First, I look for someone MY Muraki desires and NOW people are staring at me cause I can't fucking find him.

"Excuse me, but do you know where Tsuzuki Asato lives?" Oriya tried asking.

This went for hours until he reached the middle of the said village where a well was built. The same well, Muraki took notice of Tsuzuki's beauty. And the key in finding Tsuzuki himself.

"Excuse me, do you know where Tsuzuki Asato lives?" Oriya asked for the hundredth time.

And finally someone who at least knew him, showed the way.

Slowly, Oriya knocked by the small house's door.

It was opened minutes later Tsuzuki himself. It seem like he was crying for all I know.

"Are you Tsuzuki Asato?" Oriya asked just to make sure even though he knew the answer.

"Umm…yes. You are?"

"Oriya…"

"Er…why do you know me?"

Why do I know him?

/I was tasked to kidnap you…/

How lame…

/I need to bring you to Prince Muraki…/

Unbelievable…

/Prince Muraki has sent me because he said he likes you and he wants you to be with him forever so that he can be the King but I won't allow you and him to be together because I like Muraki ever since I learned I was going to be his guard./

Huh? …to confusing…

"Er…please come with me to the castle. Prince Muraki sent me here to fetch you…"

~T.b.C.
