My heart pounding… my lips shivering… the eyes that were once warm… has fallen to the grasp of darkness slowly decreasing my kindness and the love I have for everyone… but most important of all… the love I lost for her. I could still feel that warmth… though barely at the same time. It fainted a long time ago… but I do not believe in that. My love for her will always burn strong… my feelings for her will always remain no matter how darkness posses me with its immense pain. Because I love her… the woman I love… will always be Naru. Yet… my feelings are confuse… is it because of my darkness that still grasp my gentleness? If so… than why does he have such feelings? No… than why do I have such feelings?
I was always born in darkness… I am the darkness in his heart… yet why do I feel such warmth for her? Damn… I didn't believe it till now. In deep darkness there will always be a light and yet in great light there will always be darkness. If the dark does not have the light… than it will die… if the light does not have a dark… than it will die. Damn… why do I have such emotions… it's like… I can't live without these feelings. I feel so… new… feel so… wanted… I want her in my life. I want to wake up and see her in my dreams and reality. I am Keitaro Urashima… his darkness… yet I am him… and… I love her… Motoko. Yet… my feelings are confused… Motoko… as the darkness… is it possible you are my light that I cannot live without?
The two emotions are combined into one… creating the one person that is meant to be. The darkness in Kyo's heart is not called Kyo… he is Keitaro Urashima… that same emotion that created that clumsy yet loyal man desperately trying to get into the same college with that very same person in his dreams and reality. Why must one of the Gods make the decisions in life filled with consequences in which ever path you choose? Is it impossible to live a perfect life with no arguments, depression, and jealousy? No… in this life… in this reality… you must both feel pain and happiness…
Kyo bravely went through the gates of Tsuroko's home and ignored the awkward looks he was given by the villagers. His cloth blocking his face only shows the signs of suspiciousness and mysteries and yet untrusting by the eye. The shades of darkness given by the cloth scared the children and silenced the animals running around. The darkness… slowly grasping the light… is this is what the cause of silencing the world?
As he saw Tsuroko's hut he only ignored the guards standing stiffly from the opening. They both had the same black armor and same weapon. Their eyes were stiff and cold but not as cold as Keitaro's… he was darkness… never compete with the darkness. As Keitaro was about to enter through the door which was only a light wooden mat blocking the entrance; two of the men stopped him with their weapons crossed together.
''Report your name,'' snarled one of the soldiers.
''Keitaro Urashima.''
''Your purpose?'' asked the other soldier sternly.
''To see Tsuroko Aoyama.''
''Why do you wear a cloth that hides your eyes?'' curiously yet dangerously said the other soldier.
''If you ever see these eyes than you will be dead by now… none of your pathetic faces are worth to see the beast within me.''
''Why you insolent wretch!'' blasted the Soldier.
''Ryoga!'' Stop your foolishness.'' Said a familiar voice from the inside.
''Hai!'' obediently replied the Soldier whom back to his form.
Kyo swiftly went in with his cold aura spreading wildly… the darkness was forming too quickly. He stared at Tsuroko whom was drinking tea while many scrolls were placed neatly in a pile. Weapons were placed respectfully near her family arlum while a wooden desk was placed in the center of the room. Her sleeping bed was near the windows. ''Sit.'' She said in a soft yet commanding tone. Kyo did as she said while he drank the tea that was prepared for him after the quick arguments with the guards. The heat of his drink caused the steam to rise highly reaching his face while it continued to dance steadily.
Tsuroko finally looked into the shades that hidden his eyes and emotionlessly said, ''why did you came here Urashima? '' Perhaps… considering a marriage with my sister?''
An everso smirk slight appeared on his lips that never seemed to lift but only drown, ''that will be nice… maybe later but I have a problem Tsuroko.''
Tsuroko drank her tea and slowly part the cup away from her lips, ''do tell Urashima.''
''I have the curse of the Hina Blade… it has been pass down to my blood.'' Simply answered Kyo.
Tsuroko stared hard at Kyo, ''I have heard such a curse…,'' she paused, ''let me see your eyes… Urashima.''
Kyo hesitated at her words yet slowly drifted the cloth away from his eyes. Revealing the intensity and the coldness. Darkness. Tsuroko was shocked but did not move an inch from his eyes. They were so cold… shaped into the demon carved with hatred. His sharp bangs merely blocked most of his skin in the area yet his eyes stood out the most. The eyes of the demon had frightened her indeed… never had she seen such strong yet demonic aura flowing off Urashima whom seemed to be such a decent man… Keitaro Urashima… the man that was once called kind and decent… was no more.
''Urashima… why have you come to me?'' finally spoke Tsuroko.
''To ask for your assistance of course,'' replied Kyo.
Tsuroko lowered her cup, ''and what assistance do you require?''
''Your skills of finding a soul angel is most exceptional, Tsuroko-san.''
Tsuroko's eyes now landed on her tea, ''A soul angel?'' Kyo nodded, ''yes… I must do whatever it takes to stop this curse.'' A short sigh formed from Tsuroko, ''you do realize you have to murder a woman.''
Kyo closed his eyes from the words he knew that would speak, ''yes… I am doing this because of love ones.''
Tsuroko narrowed her eyes from her curiosity, ''Urashima obviously loves Narusagawa… how could darkness love another?''
Kyo gave a soft look, ''darkness cannot live without the light.'' And… I have found the light that will conquer my darkness…''
Tsuroko gave a slight chuckle, ''oh?'' And who would that be?''
Kyo gave a softer look with a weak smile, ''Motoko Aoyama… I love Motoko… and I want to be with her without the coldness that is grasping my love for her.''
Tsuroko also gave a weak smile, ''you care for my sister, Urashima?'' He nodded. ''Yet you also care for Narusagawa because of your own likings?'' He nodded.
''And what if the soul angel was one of your love ones such as Naru and Motoko?''
Silence filled the room. Kyo knew the answer to that, ''if my love one dies… than I shall too… for we can start our love in the next life.''
''But what about the other love one?'' said Tsuroko.
''I—I don't know…,'' he sighed. ''But… maybe than… I can be sure of my feelings.''
''Urashima… there is another way of releasing your curse,'' sternly said Tsuroko. He listened. ''The curse of the Hina blade has the power of light and dark… formed by your previous ancestors and surrounded by demonic aura… the only way to destroy it is to almost destroy yourself.''
Kyo cocked his eyebrow, ''what do you mean by almost?''
''While you are near death your soul angel…will help you breathe again… the problem is… I don't know where she is right now.'' Sighed Tsuroko.
''So… how am I suppose to go in a near-death suiation?''
''There is no need to find a way… the darkness will soon dissolve your darkside which is only the first stage and your regular self… soon… you will turn into a beast both from the from of the Hina Blade dark auras and from the darkest of your heart.''
Kyo narrowed his eyes from Tsuroko and gave a simple smile, ''how many days till I live?''
''In 8 months…,'' Tsuroko's voice trailed off.
''Will it continue to get darker during the process of 8 months?''
''No… I doubt so.''
''Good… I will find a way… but first… I must go to my tenants and explain to them about this stupid curse.''
In Motoko's eyes…
My feelings for him are unsure. Part of me… wants to be with him yet part of me wants to stay alone because of his confessions to Naru… I don't want to lose him at the same time. As a swordswoman… I suspected to be one of the strongest and ignore silly emotions like theses. How could I ignore something like this? His eyes… his bravery… encouragement and decency… has led him to become a real man. Like father… he reminds me so much like father… Keitaro… why must you leave me like this? No… he didn't leave me… did he…?
In Naru's eyes…
Those eyes… they were like anger wolves combined with a dragon's flames. Is it because of the betrayal I did to him? … So he found out… I never knew he would find out what I did to him. Keitaro… I'm sorry… but no matter how much I will repeat it… nothing can heal that scar in your heart… oh Keitaro…please… forgive what I did… I don't want to lose you… to anyone… I'm sorry for what I did…
