Chapter 5: Awaken and Be On Your Way
2 weeks later
Karasuma walked Sakaki around things, teaching him where everything was without seeing them. He reached out and to feel certain things to get around, being that he could only make out where a person was not objects.
" Here sit down, I'll make us some lunch," Karasuma said
Sakaki sat down and looked at Karasuma, she smiled even though Sakaki couldn't see. She wanted to allow him to feel the happiness, but there was sorrow. She made some lunch and set it down in front of him.
" It's right here," she said taking his hand to touch the sandwich
" Thank you Ms. Miho," he said
" Your welcome Haruto," Karasuma replied
Sakaki ate the well prepared sandwich and tasted the herbs that were in the meat. He looked down at his plate and sighed.
" Ms. Miho, the symbol on my arm is it true that it's a coven symbol?" Sakaki asked
Karasuma looked at him and said, " It's true Haruto, that symbol on your arm is a coven symbol."
" Then it's true, I am a witch," Sakaki whispered
" No, your not," Karasuma said sternly, " You are not a witch."
" But, why would I have symbol of the coven on my arm if I am not a witch?" Sakaki asked
" I'm not sure Haruto, but there's got to be a reason," Karasuma said
She took a bite of her sandwich and looked at Sakaki.
" What's wrong?" she asked
" I met a girl who called me by my name, saying I was a descendant of the coven," Sakaki said, " She was really pretty."
Karasuma smile and shook her head, then finished up.
" Do you want to go for a walk?" Karasuma asked
" No, I'll step out on the balcony," Sakaki replied
Karasuma nodded, Sakaki got up and walked towards the balcony with no help. He walked out and felt the cool breeze touch his face. He closes his eyes and it was then that he saw images…of the past. He saw, war, blood, pain, lives ending because of the fall of hope. A family fleeing from the horror. Sakaki felt tears fall from his face and he fell to his knees.
" Haruto, your blind because you do not want to see what destiny has chosen for you," Ayano's voice said
" I don't want to see pain," Sakaki whispered
" No matter what you do there will be people hurt and yet there will be healing in the end. Witches will be restored as advisors to the people. Your gift Haruto is to show those who have fallen stray to come back by finding good," Ayano's voice said
" Am I in this body because I could not handle this as an adult?" Sakaki whispered
" Yes, your mind has let only the child within seek this destiny…once you open to that child then your adult self will return and then the awaken will happen," Ayano said
" I want to be free from this," Sakaki said
" You will once you have seen the truth," Ayano said
Sakaki balled up his fist and hit the ground and whispered something. Tears fell from his face and the symbol on his arm appeared.
" Come on Haruto," Ayano said, " For the sake of mankind."
" I will…I will accept my fate as it is," Sakaki said, " Just stay out of my head."
Sakaki clasped his hands over his ears and shut his eyes tightly. He breathed deep as images flew through his mind.
" I can't be a witch," he thought, " I have no powers."
The door shut and Karasuma walked out to see if Amon had come home. She didn't see anyone, then saw Amon walk out the bed room.
" Amon," she said, " Your home early."
" I know, it was slow," Amon said
" I see," she said
" Where's Haruto?" he asked
" Outside, he's getting use to this place, he knows his way around," Karasuma said
" That's good, it's only been two weeks," Amon said with a smile
" Amon," she said
" I'm kidding," Amon said
He kissed her cheek and hugged her, then looked at her stomach.
" So, you still don't want to know?" Amon asked
" No, we already agreed that this baby will be a surprise," Karasuma said
Amon smiled and placed his hand on her stomach. She smiled and Amon kissed her cheek.
" I have an appointment later today, so if your home maybe you can work with Haruto on some things with his memory," Karasuma said
" I will," Amon said, " What are you making?"
" Dinner for tonight," Karasuma said, " Now, I'm going to finish, check on Haruto."
Amon nodded and kissed her cheek then walked towards the balcony, when he saw Sakaki on his knees and showing only pain. He ran towards the door, when his orbo around his neck reacted.
" What?" he thought
He ran to the door and grabbed hold of the sliding door. He pushed it, trying to open it, but it wouldn't budge.
" Miho," Amon said straining to get the door open
Karasuma looked up and ran out and saw Amon trying to open the door.
" Amon, what's wrong?" she questioned
" The door, it's stuck, someone's locked us in," Amon said
Amon was thrown back and Karasuma looked up seeing Sakaki in pain.
" Haruto!" she shouted
" Voices," Sakaki thought, " They called my name…Ms. Miho."
Karasuma looked at Amon and helped him up. Amon drew his orbo gun and fired at the door. Karasuma looked at the sliding glass door, she lifted a chair and swung at the door.
" Let him go," she cried
" Miho!" Amon shouted
Sakaki opened his eyes and stared out and looked at them, fear filled his eyes.
" Haruto, fight what ever it is," Karasuma shouted as she swung at the door.
She was hurled back and Amon broke her fall as they were thrown against the wall.
" Ms. Miho, Mr. Amon!" Sakaki shouted
Sakaki turned and narrowed his eyes.
" What's happening?" he growled
" Haruto," Ayano's voice said, " Your awakening."
" Make it stop!" Sakaki shouted
" I can't your mind is to strong to hold back the power," Ayano said
Sakaki looked at the glass door and ran into it, the door shattered and glass flew everywhere.
" Haruto," Karasuma and Amon said
Sakaki hit the ground and both got up and came to his side.
" Haruto," Karasuma said
" I'm sorry, I tried," Sakaki whispered
" Don't fall asleep," Amon said, " Stay with us."
Amon looked at the glass and pulled some from Sakaki's body. There were scratches all over Sakaki and lucky enough the clothing he was wearing protected him. Karasuma took Sakaki's over shirt and shook it off.
" He's not hurt," Karasuma said, " Maybe a bump and a few scratches."
" Let's get him to the couch," Amon said
Amon lifted Sakaki and Karasuma laid out a blanket so blood wouldn't stain the couch. Karasuma then got the first aid kit and began to tend to his wounds. Amon watched as Karasuma tended to Sakaki's wounds.
" What caused this?" Amon whispered
" I don't know, but what ever it was made him freak out," Karasuma said softly
Amon looked at him and then walked off into the bedroom and pulled out a book. It's cover was old and was falling apart. He traced something on the cover and thought back.
Flashback
" Amon, I want you to take this," Father Juliano said
" What is it?" Amon asked
Father Juliano pulled out a book and Amon's eyes widen and Juliano nodded.
" This book is the answers to come," Juliano said, " In 5 years there will be a group of witches that will raise the coven."
" But that's insane, the coven sank in the dark," Amon said
" Yes, I know," Juliano said, " I was hoping not to see this day come, these witches are descendants of the original coven."
Amon looked at the cover and sighed, then tucked into a sack. Juliano looked at Amon and Amon nodded.
" One of your hunters, is apart of this, Sakaki, Haruto," Juliano said, " The first of 7."
" Haruto?" Amon asked, " Why him?"
" Because he is direct relations to the original," Juliano said, " It is only fair that he is chosen to become the Bleeding Heart."
Amon sighed and stuck the book into his jacket then bowed.
" Take care of the first, he will need it, perhaps he will teach you things," Juliano said
End
Amon walked out and Karasuma looked at him, she saw a book and wondered. Amon sat down and opened the book and it seemed that this book had opened a whole new world.
" What is that?" she asked
" The Book of the Coven," Amon replied
" You can't be serious Amon, where did you get that?" Karasuma inquired
" Father Juliano, Robin's grandfather," Amon said
Karasuma walked over to him and Amon looked at her. She knelt down and sat on her feet as Amon began to read the writing that wrote it's self on the pages. Karasuma looked at Sakaki and saw his wounds healed themselves. She grabbed Amon's hand and Amon looked at the healed Sakaki.
" Just as the book has said," Amon whispered, " One who has a great power of those around him will be noted for his healing ability."
Sakaki rested easily as the evening wore on and Karasuma went to her appointment. Amon continued to read and finally Sakaki awoke from his slumber. He moaned and Amon looked up at the young hunter. His eyes opened and they blinked and then turned and saw Amon.
" Amon," Sakaki said
" So, it's you I presume," Amon replied
Sakaki sat up and flexed his wrist and said, " Have I been dreaming?"
" No, I'm afraid everything that has happened is real," Amon replied, " Here drink this."
Amon handed him a drink and Sakaki took it in his hands. He sipped it and coughed and Amon handed him a paper towel.
" What happened?" Sakaki asked, " I've been in the dark for two years."
" You were in an accident, you slipped into a coma for two years and awoke only 4 months ago," Amon said
Sakaki looked at his hands and sighed then looked at his arm seeing the coven sign carved into his arm. He laid back and closed his eyes and Amon looked at him.
" Do you know what you have to do?" Amon asked
" Seek out those who seek me out," Sakaki said
" Then I guess you want to start tomorrow," Amon stated
Sakaki nodded and replied, " I'll leave tonight, it will be best that I do."
Amon nodded and set the book down and Sakaki looked at it. He traced the mark and it appeared on his palm.
" I got my ass kicked by my future self," Sakaki remarked
Amon shook his head and got up and looked at the window. The cool wind blew threw and Amon pulled the blind down. Sakaki looked at the pictures seeing Amon and Karasuma in them. He felt sad and felt that he would never be given love.
" How far along is she?" Sakaki asked
" 7 months," Amon replied, " The baby is healthy, small, but healthy."
" What about the other one?" Sakaki asked
" Seirei past away 6 months ago, a car accident," Amon said, " It was destine to be."
" So, everyone says," Sakaki said
Amon nodded and turned and looked at Sakaki, Sakaki's spirit was different…it was mature and pure. It was something that darkness wanted most since he was the first.
" I want you to know Haruto that this child will not be injured in the raising of the coven," Amon said
" I assure you he won't," Sakaki replied, " From what I'm told he will be of great use."
Amon nodded and sighed.
" You better be on your way," Amon said, " They won't wait forever."
" 5 years," Sakaki said
" 5 Years," Amon replied
Sakaki walked to the room and packed up his things and head out.
" Tell her, she's in my thoughts always," Sakaki said, " She's always will."
Sakaki walked out and Amon nodded.
" As you are in her thoughts always," Amon replied
Sakaki got on his motorcycle and took off towards his apartment. He entered and looked at it. Dust and bills piled up, and he began to work as he always did, but this time would not to return to his normal life. Sakaki left his apartment and headed towards his birthplace. Sakaki's new life awaited him there, with the book of the Coven in his hands.
