*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Riho's eyes widened. "You…you know how to cure him?!" She said excitedly, almost forgetting that she was talking to Cain. Cain who had made Mr. Shido's life a living hell. Cain who had caused Mr. Shido so much pain. Cain who claimed to love Mr. Shido almost as much as she did. Cain, who considered Riho an obstacle in love, and who wanted her out of his way. But all of this was irrelevant, and almost forgotten. For Cain knew the cure to Mr. Shido's problem.
A smirk appeared on the man's face. "Yes, I do."
"How?!" She asked. The sooner she got this information, the better.
"What fun would it be simply to tell you?" Cain replied, his smirk growing wider. "Auryon?"
"Hai?" The girl said quietly.
"Present dear Riho with the cure."
"Yes, master." She said. Her eyes widened, and the shine in them seemed to vanish. She gazed blankly at Riho, her eyes looking simply like large, round, amber beads. It seemed as though Auryon was looking through Riho, rather than at her.
Riho's eyes also flashed yellow, and lost the shine within them. She lost the visual awareness she had gained of her surroundings. Not that she couldn't see, she could see perfectly, but she couldn't see Cain and Auryon anymore. Flashes of horrifying images filled her mind. Blood, staining a beautiful, elegant dress. A hand, reaching for another, but failing to touch. The silence of a starless twilight sky, broken by a ghastly scream. A child crying, suddenly silenced with the sound of a knife clashing on to the table.
But the most horrifying lingered. The others were simple flashes of images, but this one was almost like a dream. It lingered, and Riho could see her surroundings as well as the main event. The street was dark and cold. A figure lie battered under a burnt out street light. His trench coat blew in the wind, and his figure was rather pale. As Riho walked closer, she noticed that he had flowing long hair, also blowing freely in the wind. She drew in a sharp breath, for the hair and coat were much too similar to someone she knew. Still, she drew closer, and gently placed her hands on his face. It was cold. Dead cold. Fearing what she might encounter, she slowly brought the downcast face towards her. Although the man's eyes remained closed, Riho still recognized that caring face. The face that looked at her apologetically when her parents were killed. The face she wished to see, even after finding out that it belonged to a creature of the night. The face she longed to see, even when looking death in the eyes. The face she wanted to remain seeing until the end of time. It was Mr. Shido.
She was lost in these thoughts and didn't realize she was shrieking in agony, as these images were engraved into her mind.

Yayoi sat down on the free chair in the office and sighed.
"What is it?" Guni asked.
"I'm worried…about Shido…and Riho…"
"Oh?"
"Yes…I'm afraid Shido's condition isn't improving. In fact, he seems to be deteriorating as we speak." She said, and glanced over towards him. As if proving her point, he scrunched his eyes and moaned in pain again. He was trembling fiercely.
"Oh…I see…"Guni sighed, not seeming her normal, happy self.
"And if this goes on much longer…Riho won't have anyone to turn to. You know she has feelings for him. She makes it rather obvious. And he's the only one she can really relate to. If he….if he…" Yayoi hadn't cried since she had lost her sister when she first met Shido. But now, she was on the verge of tears again. Keeping her emotions in check, she turned away and held them back.
Guni sighed again. That was when she heard it. Very faintly, but her demonic sense of hearing allowed her to take notice of it. A faint scream, somewhere off in the distance. And she had a bad feeling in her gut about it. She fluttered over to the window to see if she could find the cause.
"Guni? What is it?" Yayoi asked, about to get up and join Guni at the window, but she was stopped. Shido's eyes had snapped open.
"Riho…have…to help…Riho…."

I know, it's a short chapter, but I had to cut it off there…more suspense ^.^ Alright, cya!
