Yume knocked on Maki's door she needed to talk to her. Maki answered the door with a hello and a cheerful smile and let Yume into the living room.
"How are you doing today Yume?" Maki asked while she served some tea.
"I'm fine... how are you doing?" Yume asked and picked up a cup and sipped on it.
"Oh, I'm great!" Maki told her.
"That's good... Maki, ... I need to tell you something... I have to go away for a bit on business..." Yume said.
"Business?" Maki asked. Yume nodded.
"Yes a friend came into town and needs some help I'll be gone for almost two months... but I'll be sure to write." Yume ended that with a smile.
"Really? Do you need any help with packing? I mean you will be gone for two months and all..." Maki asked.
"No, I don't need to pack but thank you anyway..." Yume answered. Maki smiled.
"Send me some postcards." Maki said jokingly. Yume kind of giggled at that.
'The only kind of postcard you'd get is one made of demon skin if you're lucky.' Yume thought to herself this was the cause of her laughter.
"So what happened after I left?" Maki asked.
"After you left?" Yume asked a bit confused.
"With those boys..." Maki answered.
--; Yume "Oh them... nothing we all went home."
"Home?" Maki asked. Yume was wandering where this conversation was going.
"We all went to our respective homes... nothing more..." Yume answered slightly irritated.
"Oh... okay then... I've started reading that book you got me.. it's interesting... but i don't really understand it..." Maki told her tea sipping friend.
"Really how so?" Yume asked out of the corner of her eye she glances to Maki with an almost worried look.
"Well... why did this Enma character recuit them all with all that chaos around him." Maki asked.
"When you're the son of the ruler of spirit world it's quite easy..." Yume answered with a smile.
'This happened just like last time... she gets so caught up in reading that book she doesn't have time for much else... i see her homework has ben lacking from the looks of it.' Yume thought as she glanced at the table infront of her.
"Promise me something Maki..." Yume said as she glances away.
"Yes..?" Maki asked.
"Don't get caught up in that book it's just a sci-fi fantasy novel nothing more... just don't take it to heart okay..?" Yume asked. Maki looked at her a bit startled at what Yume was say.
"Uh sure..." Maki answered hesitently.
"Good... well i have to go now..." Yume said and stood up and began walking across the living room floor.
"Okay... call me or something okay." Maki said with a smile as she followed Yume to the door. Yume answered with a nod.
---------------- MAKAI MEETING ----------------
"Yume!" A long blue haired green eyes girl around the age of 14 yelled as she ran towards Yume, she was wearing what looked like a pristest outfit. Yume neatly doudged the girl and rubbed her head and messed her hair up slightly.
"Shut up Shiyomi, you're already giving my a headache and you've only said one word!" Yume yelled still messing with her hair. Shiyomi looked sad and started crying.
"I-I'm sorry Yume!" She cried out and grabbed ahold of Yume's sleeve a vein was beginning to appear on her forhead.
A tall looking man with long silver wavy locks and frosty looking silverish blue eyes he was wearing a pair of losse fiting pants made of some kind of thick blue fabric he had no shirt on as he stands, talking to a man as tall as himself he has aqua blue slightly long hair and turquoise hues he lets out a laugh as he runs a hand through his shaggy mop of hair and smiles he as well has no shirt on and is wearing black pants like the other man.
"Seishin?... " Yume asked looking at the two men. The two men stopped their conversation and looked at Yume the long haired guy had wide-eyes and the other just smiled, they were just now noticing Yume's persents.
"You're training without me! jerks.." She mumbled under her breath ignoring the still whinning Shiyomi on the floor trying to say she was sorry.
"Yes well... You were taking so long..." Seishin answered while he scratched the bad of hhis neck and laughing a bit nervously while side glancing the other man for some help but the other did not comply.
"Yume..." The other man said as he bowed. "Holi..." She answered and looked to the side clearly their was a grud between the two.
"Are you two still not having normal conversations?" Seishin asked and smacked Holi on the back which left a red mark he jumped when he was hit and only looked back at Seishin with no answer his eyes were cold... as ice.
"I'll take that ass a no..." Seishin answered his own question. Shiyomi was still apolgizing in the background and Yume had had enough.
"Shut up already i forgive you!" She barked at the girl, she shut up and hid behind Holi and hissed and made claw moments with her hands. Yume rolled her eyes.
"Have we been given orders yet?" Yume asked Seishin not wantign to hear Shiyomi'd voice anymore or Holi for that matter.
"Yes, Were to go to the demon world and prepare for the second wave on the first level on the demon world... Shiyomi and Holi are having trouble trying to over take it all..." Seishin answered and Holi acted as if he'd rather him not have said that.
"Alright... lets get going i don't have time for this in the first place... you three said you could handle it without me..." Yume said and sighed. Holi looked devilishly at her.
"You're the one who cut out on the team not us Yume!" He yelled at her. Yume cleanched her fists knowing that was coming for some time now.
"I'm not the one who sent her to her death when you could have helped her!" Yume yelled bad. Holi walked a bit closer to Yume.
"It was her choice she forced me away! She wanted nothing more to do with me!" He yelled back. Seishin was about to step in but Yume held out her hand for him not to approch the two.
"You said you loved her! You should have yelled Maki when she needed it! SHe said you were her knight in shinning amor and would help her with anything!" Yume yelled back holding back tears with all her might blood dripped from the palm of her hands where her fingernails were digging into her hands.
"M-Maki... she... she said that?..." Holi stopped yelled he looked as if something just struck him in the heat and something indeed did. Yume looked away seeing Holi in this state was awful she still clenched her fists but only nodded.
"She even has dreams of you... but she said she can never place a name with his heavenly features..." Yume answered.
"You're... You're trying to bring her memory back again? WHY!?" Holi yelled at her.
"Why do you think!" Yume retorted.
"She won't forgive you Yume! Just let it go already, she hates you! She has nothing more to offer you than flase friendship in her state!" Holi yelled Yume had had enough and punched Holi.
"Bastard! Don't lechter me! I don't need it! I can't stand seeing her like that it sickens me! It turns my stomache everytime i see her smiling everytime she laughs everytime she cries... everything she does... it hurts... I want the old Maki back! I don't care if it's because i'm selfish or not!" Yume screamed.
"You were always jealous of Maki in the first place... you saw her happy with Holi and you hated her for it right,... Yume..? " Shiyomi chimed in, she looked smug and she was grinning. Holi held his cheek adn stated up at Yume. Yume looked in-raged static flashed around her body.
"Say that again and i'll rip you ears off and then your toung... i hate you're voice... it's disturbing how you can say thigns you don't mean and ask for friendship afterwards... you're just as foolish as she was... never thinking before acting... it's hard to believe you're even sisters'..." Yume answered and walked over to Holi and held her hand out to him.
"Well look at you! You're helping the person you hate the most!" Shiyomi yelled.
"Of course i hate him... but he is also my teammate and ally we don't have time to just argue when their are demons to over come... more so than we think..." Yume said and Holi took her hand and they both pulled and Holi was back on his feet. Seishin hugged Yume from behind. Yume looked very emotionless only one expresstion and that was unreadable.
"Seishin... i don't have room for your sympathy... i have no need for consolment... so don't touch me..." Yume said her words were like lightning striking without remorse, Seishin let go and looked away. Yume walked away and entered a training area and began training after taking her shirt off and she wore a sports top she was already wearing shorts and tennis shoes. She quickly pulled her hair back lossly.
"Stupid bitch... i hate her... she's nothing but problems... we should have taken care of her back then..." Shiyomi said, neither men answered her.
Yume was setting up a dummy made of iron of course it stood still it was thick and very hard. Yum pulled fingerless gloves on and had at it. She took a few swings at it's head and then went in for a few kicks deadly force was put into everything she threw at it she planted another punch at in the center of it's face and her fist sunk into the metal. she removed her fist and then began punching and kicking again. Yume's expresstionless face now shown with anger and she gave one shift kick and knocked it's head clean off from it's shoulders she then proseaded to remove it's limbs in other fashions. She stomped at it's kneecap and it's leg fell off. The two boys had been watching everything and decided to go stop her before they had to seriously replace the iron dummy. They ran in and grabbed her by the arms and tried to drag her away from the pumbled iron man. She kicked upwards and it's left arm went flying and stuck into the wall across the room. Her eyes flashed with anger and finally the two pulled her away from the limbless figure.
"Get ahold of yourself already!" Seishin yelled. Yume didn't reply.... She was lost in old thoughts... things that haunted her, even in her waking hours... memeoires of what happened to Maki replayed over and over like a worn out video tape it tore at her soul everytime she blinked the images were clearly mocking at her in their sickness. Yume stopped blinking at once and just stared at the wall across the room trying to erase the very thought of any of it.
It didn't help it just continued to taunt her like something very vaulable was placed infront of her and nothing she could do to snatch it from the grips of the imageless figure whom held it over her head and waved it childishly. Seishin shook Yume but nothing... Yelled at her to snap out of it. Soon they were giving up.
Yume's fingers on her right arm twitched she clenched her hand into a fist and she then brought it up and punched herself in the forhead blood trickled down her hand and arm and it ran down her face and over her left eyes to the point she had to close it. The two men didn't know what to do they just stared at her.
'H-Her soul... it was shattered and torn to pieces... I... I yelled at her again... and she left camp... after yelling at Holi for getting in her way... sh-she went into the enemy strong-hold alone... and... sh-...she...' Yume stood up and amde to leave the room and was blocked by Holi and Seishin.
"Yume!" Seishin yelled trying to get her attention. Yume's eyes weld up with tears and none fell from their resting place on her eyelids.
