Chapter 15
"Why are you telling me all of this?"
"Because you saved my life." She said simply. Knowing it was him who kept her from going under. Saved her from the depths of darkness.
"It was nothing." He said coolly and he shifted his position on the bed hoping to get more information out of her. "What is your human family like?" he inquired
" . . . I they were . . . are, pleasant people. They raised me well enough, but I always felt as if I did not belong. My sister and brother were friendly and we always looked . . . look out for each other. I love them." She wanted to elucidate on the matter but she could not, she wanted to stop talking about them.
"Why do you do that?" Kurama asked tilting his head in confusion.
"Do what?"
"Switch between past and present tense?" Hoshiko looked down at her hands.
"I do not know what you are talking about." She said to him, "they're still alive, don't worry. I mean what kind of seventeen-year-old girl lives by herself?"
"Okay. Calm down." Kurama sweat dropped at her edginess.
"Why do you ask about them?" she asked, trying to change the subject.
"I was only trying to . get to know you better." He said, "nothing more."
"Oh." She said and after a few long moments of soundless air, Hoshiko spoke "Kurama?"
"Hmm?"
"Do you think I will ever see my real mother again?"
"I'm sure of it." he lied, not knowing if she would. "I can help you find them if you like." He said amiably. "Well it's getting late, I'll see you. You still need to train." He smiled and got up from the bed and walked to the door.
"Thank you."
"Oh and if you ever want tell me what happened, you know where to find me." He said mysteriously and was gone.
'Did he know? How I kept it well hidden.' She thought and had a mental flashback on the conversation. 'Or maybe not.' Hoshiko fell asleep in a matter of moments.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"So you all know what to do." Natsu assumed. Each girl was given a gift of destruction. "I will send you into the Ningen world to, how should I say? "Convert" the pathetic humans to my dark religion."
"I shall be the first to please you, master." Barbie spoke up.
"Very well." Natsu said, " you may go." He opened up a small hole, big enough for a human girl, Natsu would go and control the humans himself but he was too big for the hole.
Barbie slipped though. Walking down the silent Hawaiian streets, as the sounds of morning rang through the air.
*******************
Hoshiko mind was fill with beautiful visions. * It was her sixteenth birthday. Her human family was gathered around the table as She made a wish. And her mother pulled out a blue box with yellow ribbon. Cindy's eyes widened when she saw a silver chain with a star charm on it. (Her mother had taken it from Cindy when she was younger, so she would not ask questions about who gave it to her.) "I felt it was not time that you learned the truth." Her mother said. "You are a part of something special."* The vision skipped a few hours. * The moon was full and the silver sequins of light revealed the dark red color of blood on the wall, how could she and done such a thing? What were these newfound powers of hers. What would she become? She was alone now. *
Whipping the sweat from her head she felt a watery jewel slip down her face. Hoshiko was crying for the first time since that night. She needs to tell someone. She looked at her clock, 3:30 a.m. who would be up at this hour? Maybe? A name slipped through her mind.
Moment later she found herself at Kurama's door. But before she could knock, Kurama told her to "come it"
"How did?"
He had sensed her at the door and knew she would come. He rushed over to her when she fell on her knees and began to cry uncontrollably. "I-did- something-awful." She said in between sobs.
"It's okay." He reassured her. He lifted her on to her feet. "Now what happened?"
"I-and-they-I." She could not stop sobbing. "If you knew you would hate me." She managed
'No I could never hate you.' was what he wanted to say, but instead, "Tell me."
Oh she will tell him, eventually. What will Barbie do to the friendly Hawaiians?
