Cruel Tears of Endless Sorrow.
The sun had set and the moon has yet to reveal itself from the thick grey clouds that surround it. The Ueno Park was pitch black accept for the tiny beams of moonlight that manage to penetrate the clouds. Seishirou walked towards the cursed Sakura tree with the echoes of his footsteps following him closely. There he turned around and looked up the tree. There sat a man dressed with a blood stained white trench coat. The trench coat was fluttering gently with the wind and the leaves that danced with it. There laid a young man around his twenties who was silently resting with his head gently leaning on the tree branch. It was the same trench coat, the same face, the same fragrant but it was no longer his prey. 'I knew id find you here' Seishirou said facing his back on the tree leaning on it. He took out his cigarette and sucked into it, blowing out the smoke which took off with the wind direction. Still with his shades and his empty smile, the sakurazukamori waited for his anticipated reply.
'I have been waiting for you since that day...I will make u regret for making me wait' came a cold angered voice. The pair of green pupils glared down to find that the Sakurazukamori was not even looking at him. This angered him greatly causing his fists to clench.
'Oh I'm very sorry' replied the Sakurazukamori calmly yet in a tone of queer sarcasm. 'I had a date with the underground society's leader, Kirie Hajimoto' (for those who dun know. This guy is now dead) 'Yes are u here to settle the match? To avenge your sister? To kill me? Or to torture me to death or something expected of that sort?' The sakurazuka was obviously toying with the other man, talking in a sarcastic carefree way. All these suggestions what he had expected from Subaru after he killed his Sister and took off. 'So where is Sejiko?' my meeting is with him. Not with you. Seishirou now started walking away when there in front of his path stood the angered Onmyouji.
'Well I have only one purpose in life and that is to kill you with these hands.to achieve my only wish' said the onmyouji with ofudas ready for assault.
'Is that so? Well it seems as though what ever I say is not going to change your mind is it?' Right now Seishirou is in a dilemma. What is he suppose to do now? Should he fight Subaru? Then what? He had planned to kill Seijiko to break the curse even though he wasn't sure whether it would have worked. But now..should he kill Subaru at least with his own hands or should he let him live in this state of cruelty.or.?
In a split second Subaru dived towards Seishirou who backed off a few feet away. A new presence was approaching. As Seishirou expected, it was Sejiko. He was almost the exact replica of Seishirou in what he wore and his own personal style. Black shades, black trench coat and a cigarette between his lips.
Without wasting time Seishirou changed opponents and stuck the man who just arrived with a blow of flaming ofudas. Sejiko just managed to throw his coat over it exterminating the flames and dropping the fudas.
'Were not wasting any time aren't we! How impatient one can get!' came the reply. 'I only came here to witness the everlasting end of the bet you made which you never had the guts to end properly. Am I correst Seishirou-kun? Those branded with the stars on their hands are doomed to a certain death in a few days or weeks. But you breached the rule Seishirou-kun. So as your older I have come to correct your mistakes!
'Shut up! You're talking too much!!!'
Seishirou was in a mild state of shock to hear this from Subaru's mouth when he remembered that Subaru was in a spell. This caused him to let out a slight laugh which really raged Sejiko who was insulted by Subaru's words and the laughter of his younger.
'I am your opponent. Are you too afraid to face me?' Subaru's voice slightly increased in volume.
Seishirou now turned towards Subaru who let out an evil grin. In a fraction of a second, the surrounding air blazed with the ki of light and dark, white and black, the atmosphere crying with blood stained sakura petals, the grounds cracking and dissolving. This was Subaru's real strength. He had never had the heart to kill so he never enhanced this kind of strength but now all he aimed to do was kill.
Seishirou had no intention of hurting Subaru. But this was a situation that left him with little or no choice at all. Burning the air was the incentive to kill, the need to spill blood.
'Yes brother what are you going to do? Hehe after you kill Subaru.that's when ill kill you.' He understood above all others what the shape of Seishirou's heart might have been or is.
Everything was happening to quickly dodging attacks, invading attacks and counter attacking when suddenly Seishirou found himself open. It was too late in front of him was Subaru with his right hand slicing through the air right to his heart.
'WHAT? THIS CANNOT BE!!!! ! How can this happen??? No! This was not the way it was suppose to happen! Seishirou should not have lost!! It's impossible! I am the one that is supposed to kill Seishirou! With my hands rip him into shreds! NO!!' 'WHY SEISHIROU!! TELL ME WHY!' Sejiko's shocked and angered emotions lingered the air. There on his feet he watched the conclusion of the bet.
There on the jagged rocks which made the grounds stood the silhouette of both men. Seishirou slightly leaning on to the younger man. Subaru stood there with his body splashed with warm fresh blood looking down the ground. With stained bloody fingers, Seishirou lifted the face of the onmyouji slowly to face him. It was then when he saw tears, tears that were cruel. His eyes were cold and icy but the tears were warm and sorrowful and lips which were slightly quivering. Seishirou watched Subaru's face as the tears flowed more and more gradually down to his lips and chin. The eyes looked deep into Seishirou's eyes. It was then Seishirou understood the message.'kill me.' looking into Subaru's wet orbs that were what he understood. Seishirou struck with shock that after what he did with Subaru's sister, the real Subaru didn't want revenge but instead to be killed by.him. Seishirou reached for Subaru's hands which were in his right chest and forced it out. Blood emerged from his lips as he coughed more out. His other hand cupped the open wound on his chest. Subaru who hadn't move at all since then was now shivering. Slowly he brought his hands where he could see them. He was now quivering with fear and confusion. Memories unlocked themselves slowly. One by one.the memories of the locked door sipped out. His emotions broke free from the grasp of the spell. Kindness and pain washed into his eyes. And lastly slowly turning his hands around, there they were.the curses on his back palm. The prey of the Sakurazukamori. The starts shimmered brightly. The ancient spell was broken.
Subaru studied the surroundings still shivering and flowing with tears. He bend down slowly and stretched his arm over the Sakurazuka who killed his twin sister and instinctively leaned his chest over him. Seishirou could now hear the crying warm heart beats of his.Subaru-kun. Being over exhausted the images in his mind blurred and faded. Dizziness pierced his head. He tasted blood in his mouth and soon realizes that the blood was seeping out his lips. The energy that he had used the past couple of days was too much. His body couldn't take the damages plus the heavy blow of mental pain. Before passing out.Subaru looked at Sejiko, the man that caused all this.
He couldn't find it in himself to just give up now. He had to fight.for the first time...he wanted to fight. Just this man. Whether to kill him or not.he wanted to fight this man to ease his suffering.
All onmyouji's know a spell so great that it causes absolute death to the receiver but no body uses it. Why? It is because of the saying.'a life for a life' the second the onmyouji casts the spell, half the curse would be rebounded towards him. The stronger the curse the stronger the back fire.
It was decided. Subaru had now nothing to live for. Doing this would ease all his suffering. Leave him with no regrets. What ever happens after that held no importance to him anymore. Whether with this kill he will suffer for eternity in the depts of hell. Nothing.
Subaru pushed his body up with one hand and staggered up. He coughed up more blood which he spat out on the remaining white flowers of the park. Sejiko now who stood facing him was unsure of what to do next.
'What are you going to do? You have nothing left! You can't even fight! You should just go and die. There at least he is there and your beloved twin sister is there'
These words didn't even touch Subaru's heart. It was as though he cut everything he knew out of his heart. The pain was too great. In order to kill this man. He needed to do this. He could hear the echoes of his sister, Hokuto screaming not to do it. But it together with everything faded away.
Subaru reached for his fuda. With it he sliced the back of his palm which bore the star which was still glistening and dipped it with the blood that flowed out. Characters that was invisible to the eyes before, started to emerge creating a whole new fuda. The dripping red fuda was now between Subaru's fingers as he took one last glance on his opponent he prepared to cast his final spell.
Subaru had his eyes closed for he did not want to see what will happen to his opponent when suddenly from behind him.somebody embraced him with two hands stopping is spell. One of the hand pulled the o-fuda off his fingers while the other still holding him tightly. The person behind him slowly turned Subaru around so that he faced him face to face. Subaru still had his eyes closed for he didn't want to confirm who it was. It would most probably by Sejiko but.it could also be. he didn't want to confirm it. Tears streamed down the blood stained face as Subaru felt gentle fingers wipe them off. Subaru opened his eyes slowly knowing that he might regret it later and there stood in front of him..the Sakurazukamori that had stole his sisters life, his happiness and..his very own heart. Subaru opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by Seishirou who only said 'sshhh.' with his fingers on Subaru's lips. 'Its enough.ill take it from here Subaru-kun'. With that, he placed his hand over Subaru's teary eyes and put him into a long numb sleep. Seishirou caught Subaru before he fell and gently laid him below the Sakura tree.
Sejiko could only watch with shock..
The final battle and conclusion was here.whether he liked it or not.
'Sejiko this time you can never escape me'
