Chapter 15
"I will always wait for you. I always have. When you needed me, I was there because I was waiting for you to understand. Now, I see, however. You don't need me anymore. I'm still waiting, though. Foolish, I know. You've moved and you don't need me. You've moved on. Why won't you wait for me when I always waited for you? Because you've moved on."
It was pitch black in the bedroom. Steady breathing could be heard coming from the bed as a figure walked into the room undetected. The lump beneath all the blankets and pillows rolled over slightly and continued the breathing and dreaming. The figure silently crept to the side table next to the bed and opened the drawer. It rummaged through the belongings before finding what it wanted.
Beneath all the junk that the room's owner had collected over the years, the one valuable thing was to be found beneath it all. Beneath all the CD's, all the papers, all the broken pencils and papers full of doodles, was a necklace. It was no ordinary necklace, however. No. It was a very special necklace, both to the owner and the fate of the world.
The silver in the necklace glimmered a bit on it's own as the imposter examined it. Yes, this was the right one. This was not the fake one that was so often discovered.
The lump beneath the pillows and blankets began to move and mumble. The figure quickly closed the drawer and left the room, leaving no trace that they were there.
.:Next Morning:.
"WHERE THE HELL IS IT!"
Yusuke looked up to the ceiling from the kitchen as he heard Minna screaming. He looked at Kuwabara.
"Was she always this loud?"
Kuwabara shrugged and pet a stray cat that was wandering through the palace. Icama walked through the door and looked up at the ceiling as pieces of it fell to the ground.
"What's she so mad about?" she asked, pouring herself a cup of coffee. Yusuke shrugged and took the cup out of Icama's hands. Icama glared and tried to take it back. "Why won't you give me my coffee!"
"Coffee isn't good for such a young kid. Look at me!" he grinned as he poured it down the sink. Icama nearly choked Yusuke when Minna burst through the door.
"THIS IS NOT FRICKIN' FUNNY, YOU MORONS! WHO TOOK IT!" She glared at each of the individuals in the room before almost attacking Kuwabara. "TELL ME!"
Icama nearly burst out laughing at the sight of an angry Minna who wasn't fully groomed yet. Minna's short white hair stuck out at odd angles and her pajamas had little bunnies on it that were at least six inches too short. Plus, the fact that Minna hadn't stretched out yet to get her blood flowing was making her look pale.
Minna looked up at Icama at the sound of suppressed laughter. Minna's eyes had raging fire behind them and they bored into Icama's own gold orbs. Icama stopped laughing and was about to run when she suddenly grasped her head in pain. She sank to the floor and screwed her eyes together as she groaned.
Minna momentarily forgot her anger when she saw her best (and only) friend in pain. Minna kneeled next to Icama and tried to help her up but Icama screamed and pushed her away.
"Get away from me, freak!" Icama yelled, grasping her head harder. She struggled to get away and barely made it out the door when Minna slammed her into the wall.
"What's wrong with you?" she asked.
"ARGH! GET AWAY!" Icama screamed, struggling to get away.
"NO, Icama! Tell me what's wrong now."
"YOU'RE BURNING ME!"
Minna gasped and let Icama drop to the floor. Icama caught her breath and slowly stood up against the wall. Icama glared at Minna.
"Stay away from me for awhile, okay? Just…leave me alone."
Minna watched Icama limp away before going back into the kitchen. She stared at the floor, thinking over what had happened.
"YOU'RE BURNING ME!"
But how? She hadn't been using her fire at all. That hadn't even come to mind….
"Get away from me, freak!"
Icama had never called her a freak. That was not Icama.
Icama glared at Minna.
The eyes. They were different somehow. Not they're color…but it was the look. It wasn't the same Icama that Minna had known since forever. Her eyes had looked like…someone else…as if someone had invaded her mind….
