Chapter 3: Run away love:
Night fell and poor weary Tamahome fell fast asleep. While sleeping Li thought to herself 'We had a nice day but I dare not impose on you, off I go, I dare not stay, I'll turn and go, I'll find out where I go when I get there.' She gives him one last glance before kissing him on the cheek. Little to Tamahome's surprise he was just dreaming about that kiss and blushed as she grabbed her tiny bag and ran off.
Morning rose with the screams of Tamahime. "WHERE IS SHE!" He started a massive hysteria through out the entire town looking forher. Until finally one old man came forward. "She rain south with the blowing of the winds current. I saw her moving faster than night!"
"Thanks old man!" Tamahome replied practically on the horse ready to set off.
Tamahome ran off into the directions the old man gave him. 'How far can 1 girl go in the middle of the night?' Tamahome wondered.... 'It would be like something Miaka would do after I'd be inconsiderate.' His thoughts continued until he heard the voice of a woman, not an old woman but a lady in her 20's.
"It'll be okay, I can't believe you banged your head like that! What were you thinking?"
"I-I don't know..."
Tamahoime knew that had to be Li's voice he just heard.
"Well we'll get your memory back soon enough." The other lady replied.
Tamahome jumps in and shouts "Let her go you scum!"
Li and the girl looking up "Oro?" They said confused.
"Tamahome!" Li said happily finally putting a name to the face.
"You are acquainted with this man?" The girl asks still confused.
"Oh Yes! He is most polite to me, and took great care of me."
He walks up to her but the girl puts her arm across her protectively.
"Please I don't know who you are but-" Tamahome began but the girl interrupted.
"I am Nia, this is my twin sister Nami, and we're fiternal twins, obviously." Unlike this light that's given off by Nami, Nia gave off a very eerie, dark feeling, With her long black hair and dark eyes. "You truly have not clue who you are talking to, do you?" He shakes his head. "And you call yourself a member of the Suzaku Seven, then again you did let your miko die." She roles her eyes.
This added remark obviously didn't help the situation. This made Tamahome steam. "SHUT UP! You don't know anything, you don't know what happened!" He shouted at Nia.
Nia just giggles. "Actually Id o, but that is not the point, see Nami how strung up he is on that girl?" Nami nods. "I rather you didn't associate with this man, he'll only break your heart."
"O, is that true? I didn't expect him to care that much for me anyway." She looks down. "You can go Tamahome...live your life, don't worry about me anymore." Nia hugs her sister. When being so close you can tell they really are sister.
"It'll be okay." Nia whispered.
"STOP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH!" Tamahome shouted again.
"It's true, you may honestly have never heard of Nami but you should know, she's been through enough pain, maybe her losing her memory is for the best, I haven't seen her smile in the longest time." Nia said seriously.
"I- Please I do care of Nami."
Nami sits next to him. "Really you do?"
"Of course." Tamahome says gently, and Nami smiles.
"Okay fine come on lover boy the two of you can come to my home in a village near by we'll decide what to do with you there."
She takes Name by the hand and they walk towards her village.
