Through Blind Eyes: Chapter 5
MKR doesn't belong to me, blah blah blah...
On with the show! Moulin Rouge! Erm...anyway. Here we go.
Because I've taken up writing Iris again, I fear things may get happier and happier! AHHHHH!
And speaking of Iris, if you like HD HP slash, please do read!
One final note here: I just can't see Hikaru after all this pain not slitting her wrists...doing drugs...whatever. And she doesn't have Lantis' pendant on her. Sue me.
~~~
"Hikaru! Hikaru! HIKARU!" Eagle's firm grip on my wrists, pulling my hands off my head, makes me realize that I probably would have crushed my skull had he not stopped me.
My breathing is laboured and heavy, and while I choke back sobs, my eyes cannot choke, and so I feel the familiar trails start down my cheeks.
"Eagle..." I whimper. "I'm so confused! Why does everything have to happen to me? Why do I even have to exist, dammit?! Why the FUCK did it have to be ME who was chosen to save fucking Princess EMERAUDE?"
"Hikaru," he says gently, taking my shaking hands in his, "it's not your fault. Just stay here. Don't think about it. Ignore it."
"You...you...you sound like Nova," I comment, turning my head to the side.
"Well, if it's any comfort, I won't force myself on you," he chuckles.
"Comfort, Eagle? Comfort? Fucking COMFORT? You expect me to listen to someone who got to die such a nice death, and not live in utter depression, and got to cough up blood and taste it all the time, and got to die fighting? About COMFORT? Hell, Eagle, who do you think you are?"
I feel the flames rise within myself, and as I burn, I realize what's happening. My temper controls my magic now that I haven't got a body. Well, at least in the literal sense.
I pull him to me, trying to cool the flames, and in anger, in a sort of frenzied pain, I rip his shirt in two, pulling it off him, knocking us both to the ground. Innocence, leave me here and now, and maybe I'll find the answer. I don't know what's happening, but I crush my mouth to Eagle's as I feel his hands slip up my red fuku, loosening the cloth tie around my neck, slipping my jacket off.

(Umi)
I sob, hearing my deafeningly high-pitched voice cry out my sadness. All of us are gathered here. Even Clef, and Fuu...everyone.
"I heard her yelling something to herself about a room, bodies, something like that..." Interjects Ferio.
Clef's eyes widen considerably, as if in shock. I can see him reach to finger his staff, tracing the orb that centers all of his attack magic.
"Continue without me, everyone."
He leaves the room, his little hand tightened around the staff. I clutch my skirt and wonder aloud, so that no one but Fuu can hear me.
"What did you do, Clef?"
Fuu and I hug each other. Hikaru, you just had to leave. I'm gonna kill Clef.
~~~
I lie naked, Eagle's "body(if you can have one in hell)" next to me, our fingers intertwined. Sweat has poured out of me like so much blood, like anguish, like insanity, like depression. I breathe deeply and look at Eagle's sleeping face, seeing the small amount of blood on the ground and on my inner thighs that isn't from my period. I'm not pure now. Not that I ever was.
I'm not sure if I love Eagle or not, but I know that I had to do something, and since I didn't have a knife on me...yeah.
I smile, drawing a finger across Eagle's torso, nibbling his shoulder. Maybe the afterlife won't be so...
What in God's name have I done?
~~~
Oh my god. So short. So...short. So...influenced by Iris. Sorry if the language bothered you. Not the case if you're bothered by the semi-cliffhanger.
