Chapter nine: I'm gunna do this in Aname's P.O.V. partly, and then partly normal, and so on..

It's so dark still. Am I back? Did he take us back? Do I want to open my eyes? Why not?

Good, I'm in my hotel room, and Inari's safe. I can sense her through the ring, but I need to be in another place. I don't need to be here now, but, I don't know where he is. Maybe, if what the tomb robber said is true, then my ring will find it's origin.

(Normal) Aname walked out of her room and started to run, being pulled by the ring, with silver tears running down her cheeks. The tears being hidden in the rain that started to pour down.

(Aname) We've all been running for so long, haven't we? Me, for one. Running so far from Ryou, What was I thinking? I wasn't, was I? For all these years I've been hiding myself from everyone, haven't I? Does it really take being locked in the shadow realm to find out the things I should've known? Those things I should've kept near to me, my memories of my brother, and my memories of everything. Just as the darkness compliments, and completes the light, so does he complete the emptiness I've felt for so long in my life.

The answer is that the entire fault belongs to me. I'm the one, who ran, who wouldn't stand by his side. Even if I was defenseless to any attack the tomb robber could've given then, he wouldn't have. He couldn't have used a child's body. Maybe, though, I would've had the upper hand, being a child and all, but that's all in the past. I just hope I'm not too late to make it right.

(Normal) Aname's tears ran down the sides of her face as though she was a fountain of tears, and in fact, it could be said that she was one. She was crying for all of the years she couldn't, all of the years she didn't know to. The rain was pounding harder on the ground, creating a small stream in the ditch on the side of the road, but she ran faster, with speed she didn't know she had. She ran past any stander-by, although there were few due to the increasingly heavy rain. With every step she took the puddles that were now forming on the road in harmony were being disrupted, and the falling rain was accompanied by her tears.

Inari could sense her light was troubled, and try as she might, she couldn't contact Aname for anything. Even when she tried to take over the body they shared, she could tell that at this moment Aname had something to do, and she wasn't going to let anything, or anyone stop her.

(Aname) I'm almost there, I know I am, but what'll happen when I get there? I want to get there so bad, I need to get there. To tell him I'm sorry...

(Normal) Aname's feet stopped as she stood in front of a large apartment building.

"So, this is it, is it?"

HA! I'm stopping there, and instead of posting ten like I said I would, with nine, I'm not, cuz I'm sure ur all dyeing to know what's going on!

Ten should be up either tomorrow, or Friday... I want to finish this up b4 I start school ( sept 7) not Thursday cuz my mom's gunna be home and she'll be all "You're on the computer too much, go read or something."

Well then, look forward to my next chappy: Ten! (this chapter is not yet named)
