Read/Review!Chapter 2
Miaka slowly awoke to find herself laying on a bed.
Where am I? What happened? Where's Taka?
Tears rolled down her eyes as last night's discovery crept through her.
Taka! Yui! Dam them both!
A hand shook her shoulder. She opened her eyes. Everything was a blur, she blinked and let herself take in the surroundings.
"Miaka!" Miaka turned to the figure, who was gazing down at her. Before he knew it, she flung her arms around him.
"Keisuke…." She cried onto her very startled older brother's arms. He stroke her hair, letting his sister cry her eyes out.
"Miaka, tell us what happened…." Miaka turned to see Tetsuya there as well. "What happened last night? Why were you crying? You bumped into us last night, since we didn't see Taka nearby….."
"Don't mention him! I hate him! He cheated on me!" The two seemed taken aback. "Taka? Did you say he cheated on you?" Miaka nodded. Keisuke stood up. "Tetsuya watch Miaka…I'm going to send him to hell, along with that chick he's got!" He was at the door, before he stopped. "Who was that girl anyways…" Miaka swallowed hard. She looked at Keisuke, and then at Tetsuya.
How can I tell them it was Yui? How? It's going to break Tetsuya's heart. He was going out with her after all…Taka and I and Tetsuya and Yui. We were such a nice couple. So nice that we thought of getting Keisuke a women too…then everyone would be happy. What happened? What happened? Taka!!! Why did you leave me!
"Miaka…who was it…" In a trembling voice she replied her brother's inquiry. "Yui…Yui…" Tetsuya's jaw dropped. "Taka and Yui?! Miaka you got to be kidding me…please tell me you're kidding…please tell me that you were joking…that Taka and you are about to marry and Yui and I are going out…." Miaka saw how he was heartbroken. For a moment he reminded her of someone she lost long ago.
"Tetsuya please…it's true…please don't look like that…It hurts me to see his grieve reflected in you…the way you look now…you look just the way he did when I choose Tamahome over him. Please don't look like this. I don't want anymore of my friends to go through his pain, his grieve…." Tetsuya tried to force a smile, but under his grieve was unsuccessful, causing him to look even more like her lost lover.
Miaka closed her eyes, unwilling to be reminded of a past lover, which she lost five years ago. It only got worst. His face, his physical appearance drifted through her mind. His long silky black hair, his golden brown eyes, his smile, his warm embrace, and his passionate kiss. Every little feature, every little sensation caused by this man she saw so vividly, felt once more as she longed to be embrace by him once more. Longed to kiss him, longed for his touch, his comfort…longed for the impossible. His image was torturing her even more then before.
"Miaka…" Keisuke's worried voice brought her back to reality. Miaka stood up, and dried the tears which involuntary fell on her cheeks. "There now, Miaka…don't cry. It's not like the first time that Tamahome left you…." "I'm not crying because of that…not crying because I lost a him! He won't understand! After all, he IS a character from a book and forever will be. It's time I come back to reality…time I killed all my memories of that other world!" The two men looked at each other. "Miaka…you don't mean that…" "I do! He doesn't exist! Like everyone else he'll disappear once he's dead. There won't be anything left of him…Perhaps then, Yui and I can be friends again. It was after all, the books fault that everything started five years ago. It's the books fault that everyone died! If it didn't exist then I wouldn't have to watch Nuriko, and Chiriko die. I wouldn't have lost Mitsukake! Tasuki and Chichiri wouldn't be somewhere grieving over them. Most importantly…I wouldn't be grieving now, grieving over a lost lover…" "but you just said you won't grieve over the lost of Tamahome…" Tetsuya spoke quietly. "I'm not grieving over him! I lost the only man who, I realize now I was in love with, who gave me everything, who sheltered me, protected me and who was always and forever will be in love with me…." They gave her blank looks. "Hotohori!" She said in a as a matter of fact way. The two nodded, wondering why they hadn't figure it out early. "and now that Taka's here, I lost my best friend again!"
Keisuke returned next to Miaka, placing his arms around her. "So what does my sister propose we do? We can't change the past, or bring back the dead…so what can we do?"
At that moment red light engulfed Miaka, surprising them all. The two guys grabbed a hold of her, afraid that she would disappear in front of them. "Guys…?" "Miaka…If you disappear…then we disappear with you…" "Otherwise you won't be leaving at all…" Miaka smiled. "Alright…." They closed their eyes, waiting to be transported to the other world. However that never happened.
The red light disappeared. To Tetsuya and Keisuke's disappointment, all three were still inside Keisuke's apartment. "Wonder what that is about?" Tetsuya asked. Miaka didn't reply. She stared down at her hands which now held a long red sword. The other two looked at it. "Is that what I think it is? Does that use to belong to who I think it does…" Miaka did not reply. She fumbled the sword, wondering what it meant. Finally she understood. "Thank you Hotohori…."
