Chapter Two: Amiboshi leaves Seiryuu

Amiboshi walked to his room where he found Suboshi sitting on his bed, examining his weapons. Suboshi stood up as he entered but Amiboshi walked right past him to his own bed. He lay down on it while Suboshi came over in concern.

"Brother" Suboshi asked, "What's the matter?"

"Suboshi" Amiboshi said without looking at him, "Tell me, what are we doing here?"

"What do you mean? We're members of the Seiryuu seven."

"Yea I know that but, why aren't we in Konan?"

"Konan? What are you talking about?"

Amiboshi sat up and leaned on his right elbow.

"I mean what about Miaka and the others?"

"Who's Miaka?"

"Stop it Suboshi! I know you know what I am talking about!"

"I honestly don't know what are you are talking about."

"Forget it!" Amiboshi replied in a huff, "I obviously can't stay here anymore" he started for the door.

"What?" Suboshi blocked his path, "What are you talking about? Where are you going?"

"To Konan. To talk to Miaka and the others. To find out if they are all right."

"Amiboshi. Konan is our enemy. Who is this Miaka?"

"The Priestess of Suzaku!" Amiboshi shouted angrily.

"The what?" Suboshi looked at him quizzically, "How could you think about going to see her when we have a priestess?"

"Suboshi" Amiboshi looked at him, "Was it all a lie? Everything we said in the other world, everything we pledged? Was it a lie?"

"Listen" Suboshi, said with a straight face, "What Lady Yui wants, I want. If Lady Yui hates the Priestess of Suzaku, then I hate the Priestess of Suzaku."

"You don't get it do you? This isn't real. This false world we've come back to isn't real. And I'm going to Konan. I swore my allegiance to not only the Priestess of Seiryuu but also the Priestess of Suzaku as well. And so did you. But you have chosen to forget that. So goodbye brother" he opened the door.

"Amiboshi!"

Amiboshi glanced behind him.

"If you walk out that door, you are going to regret it. We'll no longer be brothers, but enemies. Is that what you want?"

"No Suboshi" Amiboshi shook his head as he turned around to face the door, "You know that is not what I want. But I have to follow what I think is right. And there is nobody, not even you who will stand in my way."

Amiboshi marched out of the room and closed the door behind him. Suboshi flung it open again, intent on following him but ended up storming back into the room and slamming the door.

"Damn that girl!" he spat, "I've got to do something about this! And now!"



Amiboshi saddled a horse quickly and rode out of the gates of the Kutou palace, determined to find Miaka and the others as fast as could.
