A few hours went by till Izumi finally walked out of the room.
"Hey Kenji, do you think you can take me home?" She stood next to him.
"Okay." He said getting up and walking up stairs to the balcony.
"It was nice meeting you all." Izumi bowed and ran after Kenji.
"Yep she is like she was in her last life. Polite and defensive." Tommy said after Kenji and Izumi had left.
"Kenji, how did you find out that you were the male half of the balance." Izumi asked as they exited the building.
"What? How do you figure that I'm the male half?"
"I overheard you talking to your friends and the fact that you made entries in the journal. How did you find out?"
"3yrs ago, a vampire, Deblin, attacked my family and I on a family outing. He said he wanted the balance and if anyone stopped him then they would be killed. Naturally we were confused and had no idea what he was talking about and tried to escape. As we were running, he picked us down till I was only left. He killed my mother, father, and my twin brother Kouchi to get me. I would have been taken to Allana, but Tomiki, Lilith, PJ, and Taguya prevented that.
"We all have something in common about Deblin. With Tomiki he has killed every single wife he has had. Lilith, he killed her mother. PJ, his family. And Taguya has extreme hatred towards him because he is his father. Deblin killed Taguya's mother when he became tired of her." He explained looking at the ground.
Izumi stopped and looked at Kenji.
"I didn't realize that Deblin had hurt so many people."
"He has hurt many more than that. His hobby is to make children suffer."
"I was reading in the book you gave me that the two balances have a connection some how and I was wondering if you knew what that connection is." She asked sitting on a nearby bench.
"How can I explain this?" Kenji asked himself as he leaned on a tree.
As he thought of a way to explain what the connection is, Izumi had gotten up and walked over to him. He watched her walk over to him and looked her right in the eye when she stopped right in front of him.
"Izumi what are you doing?" He asked quietly as the space between them was decreasing.
"You obviously know what it is, so I'm going take a wild guess and I want you to tell me whether I'm right or wrong." She said softly before she leaned up and kissed him softly on the lips.
She pulled back after a few moments and then turned around blushing, "I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me. I think I should go now." She said sheepishly and started to walk off, but she was stopped when Kenji grabbed her hand. Izumi looked over her shoulder at Kenji who was staring at her.
"You shouldn't be sorry Izumi. You did what your heart told you and that was all that matters." He walked up to her and tilted her face to him, "You're right about the bond Izumi. It is the matter of love that connects us and nothing can break that bond. Nothing except one...of...us...." He finished his sentence and gave her the reply to her kiss.
"How sweet is this?" A voice came from the shadows, "I think I'm gonna be sick if this gets any sweeter. I just makes me sick to know that Izumi Orimoto is involved. Who would have thought she really was a two-timer."
The two abruptly broke their kiss and looked around the shadows for the imposter. It was then that Izumi growled.
"Come out Victoria!" She yelled.
"How long did it take you to figure out that it was me Izumi? " Victoria giggled from a tree branch.
"Not very long. Who could forget that old witch's cackle you have?" Izumi taunted her, "And whom are you calling a two-timer? I don't go and cheat on my boyfriends like you do. I just don't get what they see in you. Or do you use your powers to seduce them?"
"What do you know of my powers?" Victoria snapped at her.
"Takes a Vamp to know a Vamp." Izumi said coyly flashing her fangs at Victoria, "Or a hunter at that." She shot a quick glance at Kenji.
"I...didn't......know...........you...........were..........a.........vampire.........too..." She stuttered at Izumi.
"Man you are sssslllloooowwww Vicki. Even more so as vamp. There is a good thing this though........I get more to tease you about how much of an air head you are. Thank you for making my day even more brighter than it is already." Izumi laughed at her.
"Great now I lost my dinner. O'well I can always go for plan B." Victoria looked at Kenji and grinned.
"Can she use her mind thing on you?" Izumi whispered to him.
"No. That's the good part about being a hunter. I'm immune to mind control and my blood is poison to vampires. So I need you to be careful with my blood." He whispered back.
"Will do." Izumi whispered back and watched as Victoria jumped off her branch and walked towards them. "What do you think you are doing?"
"Getting my dinner." Victoria snickered as she came face to face with Izumi, "Oh Deblin! I found your whore!" She yelled over her shoulder.
"Who you calling a whore?! I've done nothing with Deblin." Lilith glared at Vicki her eyes turning silver-turquoise.
"Thank you for finding her Victoria." Deblin said coolly as landed behind her, "Look I can do 2 kills in one night." He glanced at the already prepped Kenji who had his scythe out, "Victoria look out!"
It was too late, Izumi had rammed a silver knife she stole, into Victoria's heart.
"Never underestimate your opponent Vicky." She told her as Victoria backed up a bit and feel to the ground.
"I-I'm s-s-sorry d-d-da-daddy." Were the last words that came from Victoria's mouth before she turned to ashes.
"You little bitch!" Deblin smacked Izumi into a tree.
"Leave her alone Deblin. If anyone deserves to die it's you." Kenji stepped in front of Izumi's barely conscious body.
"You have been a thorn in my side since Tomiki took you in." Deblin growled as
BEEP, BEEP, BEEP!
A red flashing light and a loud beeping sound sounded through the building.
"Shit." Tomiki cursed and ran to a laptop, "It's Kenji and he's near the park. Deblin must be one pissed off vamp if Kenji had to signal us."
"Let's get going!" Lilith yelled from the balcony as she put on her purple duster and grabbed her collection of silver arrows and her bow.
They all ran upstairs and grabbed their dusters and weapons. Tomiki had to have this giant yellow-brown hat to cover up his messy brown hair, a dark green duster, and a sword that was gold from the handle to about midway of the blade and the rest was pure silver. Taguya had a blood red duster and 2 pure silver swords. Finally PJ had a light blue duster and a collection of throwing knives and wooden stakes.
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation
No breathing
Don't care if I cut my arm bleeding
"You can't protect her this time Mitoko. Now get out of the way!" Deblin growled at Kenji his eyes turning red, "No one kills my offspring and lives."
Kenji didn't move from his spot as he stared Deblin down trying to create time for his friends to arrive.
"MOVE! Or I will kill you in the process Mitoko!"
"I'm sure Allana would appreciate that you had the honor of killing me instead of her. What would you do then?" Kenji smirked at him.
This is my last resort
"Allana can go rot. I will kill you along with your little girlfriend!" Deblin charged at him, but was cut off when an arrow wizzed by.
"If you're going to kill Kenji and Izumi you have to get through us first Deblin." Lilith said boldly with her bow still raised.
Cut my life into pieces
I've reached my last resort
Suffocation
No breathing
Don't care if I cut my arm bleeding
By now Izumi had regained consciousness and was now standing behind Kenji. Deblin sneered at the new group that had arrived, but he sneered even more at Izumi and Kenji.
"You and your friends will die. One by one just like your family." Deblin directed his attention to his nearest victim besides Kenji and Izumi, PJ, "Starting with him."
In a split second Deblin was in front of PJ and had him up in the air.
"Drop him Deblin!" Taguya yelled as he ran after him.
"You stay out of this boy." Deblin glared at his on coming son.
He threw PJ into a tree knocking him unconscious and charged at Taguya. Taguya raised one of his swords and intended it to come down on Deblin, but was it was voided by one of Deblin's own gold swords.
"Didn't your mother tell you never to play with swords?" He chuckled at him
"Are you kidding? How can she teach me not to when you freaking killed her?! Besides you were the one who taught me how to!" Taguya struggled at the strength of his father.
Do you even care if I die bleeding
Would it be wrong
Would it be right
Deblin gave one last push against Taguya which sent Taguya's sword flying and knocked him to the ground. Deblin put the point of his sword to Taguya's heart and wavered there for a moment.
"Foolish boy. What made you think you could beat me? I shall have no pain in destroy you." Deblin chuckled before he rammed his sword into Taguya's heart.
"NO TAGUYA!" Lilith cried out and tried to run to him, but Tomiki stopped her by standing in front of her and holding her, "Taguya....." She fell on her knees crying.
If I took my life tonight
Chances are that I might
Mutilation outta sight
And i'm contemplating suicide
"You bastard." Kenji growled and attacked Deblin.
He brought down his scythe and clashed with Deblin.
"How many loved ones are you going to take from Lilith?! You feed off of pain and suffering. If you weren't a vampire I would swear you were the devil."
Izumi went to Taguya's body found his sword and took it up.
'I may have just meet him tonight, but I will avenge Taguya if it's the last thing I do. Taguya, may you rest in peace.' Izumi thought as she spinned it in her hand, 'Good thing Mommy taught me how to fight with a sword and that i'm immune to silver.'
PJ had woken up and unfortunately witnessed Taguya being killed. 'How could he?' PJ sat there in total fear for the last time in his life.
Deblin was doing to Kenji what he had done to Taguya; pushing him in their hold off. Once again Deblin gave a strong push to Kenji sending him flying into Tomiki and Lilith.
Cuz i'm losing my sight
Losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me i'm fine
Losing my sight
Losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me i'm fine
Kenji got up off of Tomiki and Lilith as fast as he could and stood in front of them. Lilith was now really pissed off with Deblin and was quickly standing next to Kenji an arrow ready.
"I'm tired of you killing innocent people Deblin. Especially the ones I love, but you have never felt love in your life so you would have no clue what it was like." She glared at him as she aimed.
"Be careful Lil, he seems to be stronger when he is mad." Kenji whispered to Lilith.
"Will do." She whispered back.
"Tomiki, why isn't Izumi being phased by the silver in Taguya's sword?" Kenji whispered when he saw Izumi stalking up behind Deblin.
"It must have something to do with being part of the balance. I noticed that she is also immune to holy items." He gestured to Izumi's silver cross.
"Lil, let's keep his attention diverted towards us. I think Izumi has some type of plan." He diverted his eyes in Izumi's direction.
"What the hell is she doing? Doesn't she know he is stronger?"
'Slowly, Izumi slowly. You don't want him to know you're behind him.' Izumi told herself as she approached him.
I never realized I was spread too thin
Till it was too late
And I was empty within
Hungry
Feeding on chaos
And living in sin
'Stupid girl. I can hear her 'quite' foot steps from a mile away.' Deblin snickered in his head.
Just as he finished his thought Lilith shot an arrow at him. He sidestepped and it was on a direct path for Izumi.
"Say good-bye to your girlfriend Mitoko. Pure silver is headed for her." He snickered at Kenji.
"IZUMI MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!" Kenji yelled.
Izumi heard him and moved to the side, but not fast enough cause it penetrated her shoulder.
She fell to her knees and put her hand on the arrow. She pulled the arrow out and the wound healed instantly.
"What the hell?! Why aren't you affected by silver!?" Deblin yelled as Izumi pulled the arrow out and stood up.
"I'm immune to silver and holy items idiot." She glared at him while bringing the sword up into a fighting position and throwing the arrow to the ground.
Downward spiral where do I begin
It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself
And no love for another
Searching to find a love up on a higher level
Finding nothing but questions and devils
"What do you plan on doing with that? You'll kill yourself with that thing which will save me the trouble of doing it." Deblin laughed.
"My mom allowed me to play with swords. I'm a master at fencing and sword fighting." Izumi grinned at him.
"You just signed your death warrant, but you already did that when you killed Victoria." He walked towards her his sword ready for battle.
"Any offspring of yours, besides Taguya, deserves to die. Besides she would have died sooner or later being the unruly bitch she was." Izumi sneered and blocked the attacks that Deblin was administering.
While Izumi and Deblin were having their swordplay everyone had gone over to Taguya's body.
"No Taguya. You promised that you wouldn't leave me. You promised." Lilith sobbed into his chest.
"Honey, it will be okay. Calm down." Tomiki tried to calm his daughter down by putting his arm over her shoulders.
"He broke his promise Daddy. Now he's gone. Why am I cursed to lose everyone I love dearly? I don't want to lose you either."
Cuz i'm losing my sight
Losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me i'm fine
Losing my sight
Losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me i'm fine
Nothing's alright
Nothing is fine
Kenji looked down upon his fallen friend then looked over at Izumi. His eyes widened when he saw her sword knocked from her hand.
'I won't let him kill her either.' He thought as he set off and ran to Izumi.
"Pathetic. You are no better than that god-forsaken son of mine. I hope you enjoyed your short life cause it ends here." Deblin sneered down upon Izumi then brought down his sword.
"No Kenji!" PJ yelled.
Izumi stood there mortified. Kenji had taken the sword for her. 'No Kenji.' She began to sob and fell down to Kenji's fallen form.
"No Kenji. Wake up. Why did you do that?" She pulled him into her arms and shook him lightly.
I'm running and i'm crying
I'm crying
I'm crying
I'm crying
I'm crying
"Humph. 'Bout time he sacrifices himself. Allana has wanted you dead for some time now."
Deblin snickered as he turned around and walked over to the others.
"Kenji? Kenji?!"
"Izumi................................use this to destroy him. Don't let him hurt anyone else.........." He lifted his duster up and revealed a different scythe that he had never used before.
This one was all silver unlike his other one which the blade was only silver and the handle black.
Izumi looked from his face to the scythe and back to his face.
"What if this one does affect me? What if this silver does burn me?" She asked hesitantly.
"You survived Lil's arrow didn't you. This one is made of the exact silver................" He coughed up blood, "I'm sorry Izumi. I'm sorry I won't be able to stay with you......................."
"No Kenji."
"Go and destroy Deblin Izumi." A soft voice came from behind her.
"Who's there?" Izumi scanned the shadows for the voice then gasped when the figure came out of the shadows, "Melanie?"
"I'll watch over Kenji. Go and do what is to be done. Just be careful. I don't want to lose my best friend and of what remains of the balance. Allana would like that too much even if she doesn't know about you."
"How did you......."
"I'm part of the Witch's council Izumi. I know more about what's going on than you think." Melanie put a hand on her friend's shoulder and kneeled next to her.
"Bout time you showed up." Kenji criticized before he started coughing.
"Sorry, but Lillian kept me for longer than expected." Melanie pulled the scythe out of Kenji's duster and handed it to Izumi, "Now go. I will try my hardest to help him."
"Thank you Melanie." She shrugged her friend and stood up.
I can't go on living this way
Over in the distance PJ, Lilith, and Tomiki were trying their hardest to keep Deblin away. He had managed to injure PJ in his throwing arm, so his throwing knives were out of commotion.
Then Deblin totally disappeared.
"Where did he go?" PJ asked sullenly.
"I don't know, but keep your guard up." Tomiki advised as he too vanished.
"Daddy?" Lilith asked warily.
"It's okay i'm looking for him." Tommy's voice echoed.
"He's behind us." PJ whispered.
"Who?"
"Deblin." PJ spun around with a stake in hand, but before he could get anywhere close to Deblin, he too, was taken to the ground by Deblin's sword.
"PJ!" Lilith shot an arrow at Deblin, but he sidestepped and it took off Tomiki's hat, "Oh shit...." She quietly cursed
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation
No breathing
Don't care if I cut my arm bleeding
"Weakling. Your carelessness almost lost you your last living relative." Deblin laughed.
"You love to hear yourself talk don't you." She growled as she readied another arrow then aimed a little to the right, but it looked like she was aiming directly at him.
When she released her arrow, he again sidestepped then cried out in pain.
'Got him!' She cheered triumphantly in her head.
The arrow had hit his shoulder, but hit him nonetheless. He fell down from the pain surging through his body. 'How did she hit me?!' He was furious. He then looked down at the ground and spotted one of PJ's throwing knives. 'The fool. Gold handles.' He snickered as he picked it up with his left hand. He then looked up at Lilith and grinned evilly at her.
"Fool." He said as he threw the knife.
Would it be wrong
Would it be right
If I took my life tonight
Chances are that I might
Mutilation outta sight
And i'm contemplating suicide
Lilith's eyes grew wide with shock as the knife hit her right in the heart. She fell to her knees and took her last breath and whispered, "Taguya......Mommy......i'm coming to join you.............." then landed on the soft earth with a thud.
Weee……….some what of a cliff hanger. ; Tell me what you think. Yeah I know I didn't use all of the song, but o'well, my choice.
