Muse has gone on holiday and she hasn't come back. I am sooo happy NO MORE SCHOOL OR EXAMS!! Meaning updates and more reading yay!! Okay I will shut up now!

Chapter 5
I am supposed to do WHAT??
Kimiko and her companions reached the palace before dark and Kimiko was already settling in. She didn't realise how quickly she was getting over her shock and that she felt like she was at home in Shi Jin Ten Shi Sho (A/N: forgot the spelling so is it correct? Uh oh I really should stop popping in)
As she walked around the palace just relaxing, losing herself in the beauty of the night and her thoughts while waiting for midnight when she would be going with Miaka to try to prevent her from getting hurt.
~ Kimiko ~
Well I might as well see what this place is about. I wonder where Chichiri and Tasuki are. * sigh * I know exactly how Chichiri feels. Hiding from everyone trying to be tough and happy all the time. I may be a little different but we aren't all that different. I wish I could reveal to someone I am not what I seem and be weak for a moment. But I CAN'T. Weakness will only lead myself to destruction. Though friendship and love seems to be easy to find here. I know I will crack in front of these people soon. Let's just see how long I can hold up. No matter what people think, I am not that strong though I believe myself to be.
****************
Kimiko found herself in front of huge crimson and gold doors. Somehow she felt as if a familiar presence was guiding her inside.
~ Kimiko ~
"Woah!! Big doors!! Wonder if it is a restricted area because the doors seem so thick." I mused staring up at the doors.
Oh well. My curiosity has been aroused might as well go in. So I tip toed inside the room and took a long look around the room. Wow, red everywhere. Red draperies, red carpet and red cushions that look like they are for praying!! Huh?? Praying?? Oh.the statue of Suzaku.
I stood there staring in awe at all the red. Slapping myself mentally, I caught sight of a statue. It's a golden phoenix!! Lightly gliding my fingertips over the statue I felt the statue growing warm. Then it hit me!! Oh my god I am in the shrine of Suzaku. What am I going to do? Damn. I should get out of here before someone thinks I am doing something bad.
I raced to the doors that have mysteriously closed by themselves to open them. Crap! They aren't budging! Tasukete!
A bright red glow from the statue grew brighter until I had to shield my eyes. Backed up against the doors and shielding my eyes I swore to myself I wouldn't scream. I won't!! I can be strong and I am!! Pressing my lips together so I wouldn't scream I faced the door and pushed again. Argh it wouldn't budge not even an inch!! Even if I am good at martial arts what good would that do to me against godly powers. K'so I hope Suzaku won't kill me for coming into his shrine uninvited.
I felt the heat of the glow behind me lessen then I dared to turn around. DEAR SUZAKU! It is he! HE is standing right in front of me! Unngh! This is way weird for normal people like me. Finding myself here in another world that I never knew really existed now meeting one of its GODS!! Ookay now I am babbling idiotically to myself.
He looks exactly how he looks in the pictures! Uh young. Good looking too! Who would imagine he is. what. a few hundred or more years old?
My jaw dropped open in shock and I felt paralysed watching him appear before me. Pressed up against the door, I stared at him defiantly.
"Saikai.. It is really you isn't it.." He started.
Not answering, my eyes darted around for escape but there was none so I met his stare head on with as much ice as I can muster.
Who is Saikai? DO I know a Saikai? Uhh I don't think so! What is that in his eyes? Tears? For what? I am not Saikai whoever she is. My name is Kimiko. What does he want with me?
Questions raced through my mind. But I knew I didn't care I was strong. I can get out of this myself but first I better find out what the hell I am doing here.
Shaking slightly I gathered myself, steeled my voice and asked the phoenix god, "What am I doing here? WHY have you brought me here?"
He only whispered, "Saikai. . ." and scooped me up in his arms and cradle me like as if I was a baby.
Huh? Alarm bells were ringing in my mind but I felt at home in his arms. He was cradling me like I was a precious glass vase going to break or disappear. What in the world is he doing?
Snapping out from my paralysed state I flipped out of his arms and made sure I was at least 10 feet away from him. Was this the way Miaka was greeted by Suzaku? If it was I sure as hell didn't see that. Its either I didn't see that or the gods here are plain weird.
"What in the world do you think you are doing? And my name is Kimiko!" I asked icily.
Suzaku in his human form replied in his deep smooth baritone, " Fine then Kimiko.. I shall not tell you now as I do not wish to tell you in this way all the reasons to why you are here but I will tell you your purpose for now. Your purpose is that you shall be the balance. You will help and save the unhappy pasts of the Seiryuu seishi as well as mine. Be the balm that soothes their wounds."
He paused as I stared at him disbelievingly. He too pierced me with his fiery crimson eyes.
"As you know Kimiko, that Seiryuu and I have been great enemies. You have become our tie. You will face many dangers and hard decisions that I do not wish for you to face as my." He stopped as if he were to say something but caught himself. He seemed to be hiding something. A flash of pain was glimpsed in his eyes.
He then continued, " Never mind. As I said you shall be an oracle yes but also you have something else, which you will discover too. Save all of us from a Great War. Use your judgement and."
I snapped out of my stupor and quickly spoke up sarcastically of course, " Chotto matte. I think you are really out of your godly mind. Do I look like a saviour? I don't think so!"
I know that I should be out of my mind shouting at a GOD but this is ridiculous! Me? A saviour? A balance?
"Suzaku for your information, I have no intention of being anyone. I am only me. Someone who has troubles of her own, who has nothing special to help anyone. I think you have made a mistake bringing me here, perhaps you thought I was this Saikai person whoever she is. Well I am telling you she is NOT me."
"You will find out all in due time Kimiko. All in due time. Whether you want this or not this is what you are. I only hope that you will be safe and strong for what lies ahead to make the right choices and also to be able to understand whom you are. You have unbelievable powers that lie within you still unused"
Suzaku went on to say sadly, " I also hope that someone special will be able to melt that icy shell around your heart and drop the pretence of yours and learn to trust and love again."
Boy, for a god he sure is corny. Sounds sweet but corny. He is so out of his gourd if he thinks that I will give up my mask so easily. What does he know and how does he know my pain?
Suzaku gave a smile filled with tenderness and walked over to where I stood. He bent over to kiss my forehead with affection.
He slowly faded whispering like the wind, "You will do great, do not worry. We shall meet again, little one"
His words of endearment struck me like a bolt of lightning. Little one? Someone has said that to me before but who and when?
******************
Kimiko found herself lying on one of the praying cushions in Suzaku's holy shrine. She didn't know whether everything was just a dream or it was real and she got knocked out or something.
~Kimiko~
Suzaku works in mysterious ways. That can't be dream. I just have feeling that that is not a dream. Either that or He just came to me in a dream. Oh well I got my information either way.
Funny none of the seishi has come to me even though I know everything. Che. I know sooner or later they will. I just wonder whether I should tell them everything because I know that it could totally screw up the whole plot. What the heck. me being here already screws up the whole plot.
I better find Amiboshi. I just hope he doesn't kill me on the spot. Even I know that his flute is deadly. Stress will seriously be the death of me.
*****************
Kimiko felt more like herself in this world than in the real world. She doesn't feel the need to hide everything except the most painful thing in her young life that is to be treated as if she were worthless and having parents who seemed to hate her.
She felt like she could take off her mask and just make a fresh start. But she knew that there would always be a dull pain due to neglect of her parents.
She went off to find Amiboshi who she knew would be freaked out and probably getting Nakago and his minions to take her out.
