Notes: Sorry it took so long to update. I've been really busy. I might change to character POV in this chapter.
Different But the Same 4
Terry charged at Kayla. Kayla dodged and went straight for Hiei. A dagger appeared in Kayla's hand. She held the dagger at Hiei's throat. "Take one step closer, and he dies," Kayla said quietly. "Why are you doing this?" asked Terry, "We're your friends."
Kayla's POV
'Kill him now,' whispered a cool voice in my head. I hesitated. 'Kill him!' the voice urged. I put a small amount of pressure on the knife I held. I could kill them all easily, but I wanted to make them suffer. I looked up at the girl in front of me. Her eyes were misting over. I pressed the knife to the neck of the fire demon and watched a small trickle of blood run down his throat. I looked at the girl again. A crystalline tear slid down her cheek and fell to the ground. "Why are you doing this?" she asked once more. I tried to answer, but could not. I looked at the warriors on the ground around me. 'Kill him,' the cold voice whispered once again. The girl slowly advanced on me. "I don't want to hurt you," she said in a voice choked with tears, "But I will kill you, if I must." Fear filled me. I dropped the knife I held and released the fire demon. 'What are you doing?' asked the cold voice, 'Kill them now!' I aimed a fireball at the girl and prepared to fire. I could not bring myself to kill them. I lowered my arm. 'Kill them!' the voice cried, 'Destroy them all!' Terry. The girls name was Terry. And the fire demon was Hiei. 'Destroy them!' cried the cold voice once more. "Please," said Terry, "Let us help you." 'It is a trap!' cried the voice. "The voice," I said. "What voice?" asked Terry. "The cold voice," I said. "She has been deprived of her soul," said Hiei. My soul. I had no soul. 'Destroy them,' the cold voice hissed, 'They care nothing for you. All you can feel is hatred.' I felt empty. Not even hatred filled the void. The warriors on the ground began to wake. Kuwabara. And Kurama. I remembered them. And Yusuke. "She has not only been deprived of her soul," said Kurama, "But her heart as well." My heart. Was this the emptiness I felt? Was it the absence of my heart and soul? "She can no longer love," said Yusuke. Love. That was the emptiness. 'No,' said the voice, 'You do not need love. You desire the blood of the warriors you see before you.' I did not desire the blood of the ones who said they were my friends. I desired to feel. "You must come back," said Kuwabara, "We need you." 'No!' cried the voice within my head, 'Do not be deceived by them.' I took a step towards the others. I felt warmth within me. My heart had returned. 'No!' cried the voice. It was weakening. I took another step. My mind cleared and the voice was gone.
Other POV
The mist cleared from Kayla's eyes and the color returned to her face. "The voice," she said. "What about the voice?" asked Rosa, who had only just gotten up. "It's gone," said Kayla with a smile, "The cold voice is gone." She hugged Kuwabara and Terry. Kayla took off her necklace and gave it to Kuwabara. "The necklace," said Kayla, "That's what was controlling my mind." "It won't be controlling any minds for a while," said Yusuke.
AN: That's the end of this chapter. I hope you all enjoyed it. I'll try and update sooner next time. Ja ne!
