Chapter 9
Anthem of Our Dieing Day
As Kyle watched his love walk alone down the dark corridors. He could feel saddness and anger swell up inside him. Kyle felt a hand on his shoulder. He didnt move. He knew it was Nick. He heard a snicker.
"Wolf, you remeber that story your dad told you about the girl who sold her soul to Hades to save her true loves life and then he betrayed her?" Nick whispered in Kyles ear. (Herculese for all you Baka's who dont know squat about Disney)
"Yeah, why?" Kyle asked suspiciously.
"That's what just happened here. Now get out of my castle before I change my mind and have her kill you." Nick said. Kyle knew he'd lost her. He left the ruins in silence. He went straight to his dad and broke the news. Then for the next hour and a half they tried to figure out a way to break it to Inuyasha.
Meanwhile, Mimi sat pissed off in a dark room she'd found for herself. The castle was huge. She'd hoped it would take Nick forever to find her. But apparentally her hopes were worthless. Nick pushed open the door and stepped into the room.
"My dear Mimi, it's not that bad. I mean at least now you wont see your precious wolf boy die." He said. Mimi growled. That was true. She was glad he hadnt died but still her life was gonna suck ass.
"You just just wait til I tell Ember! She is gonna kick your-" Mimi started but was cut off.
"You figured it out did you? Well then you know I'm controlling her mind then right?" Nick laughed. Mimi had figured that was what had happened. She just looked at the ground.
"Nick Ca-" Mimi started again but was interrupted by the fiend once more.
"Please call me master." He said snickering. She knew she had to do it. She rolled her eyes.
"What ever. Master can I go back to my time and get some stuff. Ya know clothes and junk." Mimi asked still not knowing why she was ASKING to get clothing.
"I suppose so. But be back as soon as possible. Remeber your promise, you said you wouldnt runnaway." Nick reminded her. She nodded and left. As she started out the sun began to rise. She turned back into her normal self and began to walked a little faster with her hands in the pockets of her red hoody. She didnt want to look at the mark upon her wrist. Not now. Not when she was so tempted to run and never look back. She was approaching the well when suddenly someone stopping in front of her. She looked up. It was Mitchel. She knew Nick was watching her every move. Soon he'd be sending her commands. She didnt want to hurt her friends. So she just walked around him.
"Mimi. Why'd you do it?" He called to her. She stopped.
"I had no choice. I love him. I couldnt let him die." Mimi said not even turning to look at her friend. Kyle had obviously told her dad who had told Miroku who had told Mitchel.
"So you sacrificed your own happiness?" Mitchel asked.
"You dont under stand. I am happy. Im happy he'll live to see another day. Im happy knowing someone excepts me for me. Im happy knowing he can forget about me and go to somone who wont screw up his life." Mimi said. Mitchel could tell she wasnt happy at all.
"Anything else?" He asked her.
"Yeah, Im happy knowing that in another life he'll be mine." Mimi answered. She walked over and jumped down the well. She climbed back out and went into the house. She went up to her room and grabbed some stuff. A lot more clothes, all of her cds, her make up, her Sidekick2, her gameboy advanced sp, and a lot of other stuff. She also snuck into her mom's room and took the picture of the two of them in America the summer before. Silent tears streamed from her eyes as she realized she'd maybe never see her Mom again. She went into the closet and took out a box. There she found an old baseball cap of her dads. She took it and placed it on her head. She also found a strip of one of his Kimonos. She took that to and tied it around her wrist.
She left the house and went back to the well house. She was about to jump in, lugging her huge backpack, when a familar voice yelled at her. She didnt want to deal with HIM right now.
"So where ye goin, Mimiru, and where did you precious brother go?" Spike yelled. She'd never be back here. Why not scare the crap out of him now.
"Ya know what? You remeber when I said I was a bad ass? That was an understatement. Im not even human." Mimi said removing her cap to reveal her ears. Spike gasped. He saw she had claws and fangs as well.
"What are you!" He demanded.
"Outta here!" Mimi said then she jumped down the well. She went and retrieved the rest of her belongings from the village and headed back to the castle. On the way her mom and Kyle stopped her.
"Mimi?" Her mother said. Mimi didnt look back.
"Mimi why for me!" Kyle demanded. "Why didnt you save your self!"
"Because, I didnt want too." Mimi said. She couldnt say she loved him anymore. She was betrothed now. Kyle glanced at her. Then nodded for Kagome. She started to chant when suddenly beads appeared on mimi's neck. A rosary just like her dads! She tried to yank it off but it wouldnt work.
"Say it Kyle." Kagome demanded. "This is punishment for what you've done, Mimiru. You had good intentions saving him but now you are also a traitor to your friends." Kagome said.
"Im sorry Mimi, Sit." Kyle said. Mimi came plumiting down on her face. She deserved it. She knew she did. She got up and walked away in silence. When she reached the castle Nick greated her. He knew she'd return. She dumped her stuff in her new room. It didnt feel home like. She missed her mom. Nick walked in.
"I have your first mission Mimi." He said to her. "Intruders have broken my newest barrier and I need you to destroy them." Mimi closed her eyes.
"Who is it?" She asked.
"Inuyasha and Kouga." Nick said with a smirk. She knew she had no choice though she'd rather of had her soul taken. She walked outside. She drew her sword and stood in front of the men.
"Im sorry Daddy." She said. She jumped into the air. "Moon Scar!" She yelled. The blast was strong and knock Kouga out. Inuyasha still stood but had no intentions of hurting her. She swung her sword again. This time it hit her father and knocked him out as well. Nick appeared beside her.
"I told you to kill them." He said. Mimi hung her head. She couldnt do it.
"I-I cant." She turned to him and smiled. She dropped her sword to the ground and get smiled.
"Go on. Take it. Take my soul my soul. Take the amulet cause you know what I aint got nothin left to live for in this world! I've lost the one I love Ive betrayed my family and Im ridden with guilt. So go on take it." Mimi screamed. Nick sneered and held out his hand. Suddenly Mimi felt a pain in her chest. It grew stronger and stronger until finally an orb like light flew from her chest. She suddenly lost all strength and fell to the ground. Her eyes were blank and she was paralysed. But she could see and hear everything. She saw the orb float into Nick's hands and turn into a tear shaped jewel. She saw it begin to glow a deep red. She saw him glance evily at her and walk over to her motionless body. She felt a sharp pain in her side. He'd kicked her.
"Mimiru, I know you can hear me. I know you were dreaming of dieing and being reincarnated back. But news flash if I destroy this amulet you'll no longer exist and you can never come back." Mimi knew this. But she'd rather burn in the pits of hell than betray her friends anymore. She could feel herself being carried. ABout 30 minutes later she could feel herself tied to a wall of some kind. She had no emotions anymore.She didnt care about death. Flames surrounded the room. 'Kyle, Mommy, Daddy, Kouga, Mitchel. Please forgive me and dont forget me.' Mimit hought to herself. Then she saw a shadowed figure no two figures fighting. One was Nick but who was the other. Could it be? Kyle sideswipped Nick and knocked the amulet out of his hands. Kyle caught it and ran to Mimi. He body quickly absorbed it.
Her eyes took on a tone again and she could speak and move. She broke the ropes and ran to Kyle. She noticed the mark on her wrist was gone. But why?
"Why dont I have that mark anymore?" Mimi asked Kyle. He smiled.
"Because, Nick promised you he wouldnt hurt me at all. On my way in here to save you, he punched me." Kyle said. 'Thats cheesy.' Mimi thought. Kyle gave her her sword and she sliced Nick in half killing him on impact.
"Good ridence."
