Chapter 5

The hall became devoid of all noise as soon as they announced her presence. As she walked towards the front to

her father, the king, everyone bowed their heads in unison as a sign of respect and unity. She noticed that her

father wasn't alone in front. Kyo and three other soldiers were with him. As soon as she arrived by the King's

side. The King shouted a command for everyone to look at him. The announcement was about to be made. Everyone

waited in breathless anticipation. "Everyone, I would like to thank all of you for coming here tonight. For

countless of generations, Balrok, has killed dozens of gods and goddesses. Evil was triumphing over us. We were

about to be wiped out but we have to thank Kyo and his soldiers who bravely stood up to Balrok for they have

indeed defeated him. We no longer need to be afraid. Let us all have fun tonight for it is a new beginning for

everyone. This course of event has change history as we speak." After the speech, everyone shouted with

happiness and excitement. Everyone started to shake and pound Kyo and the three soldier's backs. The girls were

all flaunting, flirting and praising them. She wanted to frown but opted for a serene cool expression as she

watched the things happening.

"Boo! Princess"

"Ah! Tsuzuku! What are you doing?! Are you trying to kill me?!"

*grin* "my... my how jumpy we are tonight."

"umm… Where's Skye?"

"When she got home she ran so fast that she tripped and fell on her head. Don't worry she's okay but she has a

splitting headache. Dad said that he didn't want her to be left alone so, he stayed with her. I was also

supposed to but they told me to go. I would serve as their representative in this great event."

"Oh... yes I see. When did you arrive? I didn't see you awhile ago."

"I Just arri— "Tsuzuku was cut off by the loud attention catching voices of the women.

"KYO!!!! YOU are just SO ADORABLE!!" A red head squealed. (A/N: I don't have anything against red heads! I just

don't know what to put anymore)

"TELL US HOW  DID YOU DO IT?" A raven haired woman shouted clinging on his right arm.

*what a jerk…that creep! Those bimbos! Who am I kidding… I'm like a sister to him… I really don't like him* Kyo

and the other women around him were dead by now if Rine had her way.

"Umm.."

"Nani?"

"You don't have to be jealous."

"Me? Me? JEALOUS??? Of course not!! Why do all of you think that I would be jealous?"

Tsuzuku knew better of course. "Why not dance with me? Just for one song? I know I have been a complete idiot

awhile ago. Please forgive me. I have never in my life beheld such a beautiful woman such as you. That's my

only defense" Tsuzuku held out his hand and waited.

"Okay." Rine gave her hand and bowed as a sign of conformation, even though she felt something not right about

him.

"HEAVEN TO KYO! HEAVEN TO KYO!" A hand was waving in front of his face. "huh what?"

"You haven't been listening to a word I said!!" the red head frowned. "I'm sorry. Will you please excuse me?"

Kyo extracted himself from the women and headed straight for the dance floor.

"Rine…. Don't you remember?"

"Remember what, Tsuzuku?"

"About your childhood.."

*my childhood…. *

~Flashback~

Mom!!! NO!!! Please SOMEONE HELP!!!! Rine cried over the dead body. Suddenly arms grabbed her and… and..

"Rine? Hey, are you okay? You turned quite pale."

"huh? What? Yes, … I… I… I don't remember everything but.. Why do you ask?"

"Excuse me, may I cut in?" Kyo tapped Tsuzuku's shoulder meaningfully.

Tsuzuku didn't appreciate the interruption but allowed it. "Certainly" He bowed and kissed the back of Rine's

left hand. "We'll see each other again… real soon and you, she's mine" The promise was made. Rine couldn't

believe her ears.

"Just wha-"

"Stop! Leave it be." Rine said as she grabbed hold of Kyo's hand. Tsuzuku smirked and left. She didn't want to

be around him.

"I guess you liked the way he flattered you." He said huffily. *Is it just me or is he being extremely childish

for his age...* "No, I didn't you baka! Now just dance with me. We look like idiots just standing."

"Gomen."  Kyo took her in her arms and gently swayed her with the music.

 "Um… Did I interrupt something awhile ago?"

"Of course not."

"What did you guys talk about?"

"…"

"Rine?"

"The past… could we not talk about it…please."

"Okay." Kyo knew what happened in the past. How she was taken. He held her tightly his chest. *I swear nothing

will happen to you as long as I'm here.* (A/N: I know that thing keeps happening in every guy girl thing but

isn't it kinda sweet?J)

"Rine"

"hmm?"

Kyo put his chin on top of her head. "I will always protect you." Rine hugged him tightly. "Promise me"

"I promise" with that Kyo bent his head and kissed Rine on her lips tenderly. It was her first kiss. One she

would never forget.
