Summary
This fic used to be called a lovers trust but that was so weird. So I have reloaded it and sorted out all the problems. I also cant write a good summary so Im just going to make the last one a bit longer.
A power is loose in the world that has reawakened after a millennia, but is this another plan from Biovolt to take over the world and gain power? Is Biovolt the cause of this power awakening? The 2 girls in the middle of it all will decide the outcome that fate and destiny have decided to place on their choices. But 4 boys are trying to win their hearts for good and for evil. All of this will affect the fragile future of the world as we know it. Everything rests in the girl's hands. The smallest thing could alter the course of history. Will fate and destiny prevail and the prophecy fulfil its purpose. Will their powers awaken before the end? Will their hearts choices find true love in the process and give balance back to the world…
Chapter 1: An unwelcome visitor
It was early on a Saturday morning and a slight breeze drifted around a fairly large room. Its occupant was a slim girl aged about 17 with long deep ebony locks falling in messy bangs framing her face. She was a slight neko jin with gripping violet eyes. Her name was Serenity. At the moment she was still wearing her makeshift pyjamas (she hated those so called pyjamas they sold in the shops they were sooo itchy) involving a white tank top hanging loosely off her shoulders and some cropped black pants. Serenity was on her bed listening to The Rasmus and reading a random book she found under an assortment of underwear, homework and other clothes that hadn't made it to the laundry basket, while she had attempted to tidy the room. The breeze strengthened and ruffled her long black hair.
"Argh, stupid book!" she threw the book across the room, it hit the wall and flopped rather ungracefully back into the pile of clothes that had just been relocated.
"Damn room" she stood up and tried to kick the pile into her wardrobe. She ended up having to pick up the clothes after hitting her toe against the wall that the clothes were stacked up against. After the difficult job of managing to shove the clothes into the stuffed closet she sat on the floor and nursed her toe.
"Why do I even get so worked up them" she sighed and plopped back onto the bed and turned the music up even louder getting caught up in her troubled thoughts once again. Then one of her favourite songs came on and she started to singing along to it.
Haven't slept in week
My bed has become my coffin
Cannot breathe, cannot speak
My heads like a bomb still waiting
Take my heart and take my soul
I don't need them anymore
The one I love
Is striking me down on my knees
The one I love
Drowning me in my dreams
The one I love
Over and over again
Dragging me under
Unknown to her the figure that had been perched on a branch all morning as still watching her and listening to her sing. He shifted across the branch to get a better view of her, but still concealed in the leaves of the tree. The words carried on floating towards him as he listened intently. Then he saw those deep violet eyes that he loved so much, they were soul penetrating like she could see his inner most thoughts. It made him want to reach out to her and pull her close to him. But he couldn't, so he carried on watching, memorising every word, with those crimson eyes.
Hypnotized by the night
Silently rising beside me
Emptiness, nothingness
Is burning a hole inside me
Take my faith and take my pride
I don't need them anymore
Serenity noticed a slight shift in the branch outside her window out off the corner of her eye. She turned completely and stared out of the window while still singing. But even for her keen eyesight she could see nothing the canopy was too thick. /must've been a bird/ she thought too herself, and carried on singing.
The one I love
Is striking me down on my knees
The one I love
Drowning me in my dreams
The one I love
Over and over again
Dragging me under
This bed has become my chapel of stone
A garden of darkness to where I'm thrown
So take my life, I don't need it anymore
The one I love
Is striking me down on my knees
The one I love
Drowning me in my dreams
The one I love
Over and over again
Dragging me under
The one I love
Is striking me down on my knees
Striking me down
Drowning me in my dreams
Down on my knees
Over and over again
Striking me down
Over and over and over and over again
As the song came to an end she remembered something, well not entirely. There was something niggling her at the back of her mind as she tried to corner the thought. /what is it/ she thought to herself while mentally noting to herself to get one of those memo pads.
"Shit" she exclaimed loudly, slightly startling the visitor outside her window. "I cant believe I completely forgot to ring Sakura! She's gonna kill me" she wailed while mentally kicking herself.
"Not if I can help it" quietly growled the figure outside her window, he wouldn't let anything happen to his little kitten.
Serenity ran over to her phone and unhooked it from the wall. She quickly dialled the number, whilst she waited less than patiently.
Ring. Ring. Ring...damn phone pick up…Ring. Ring…
"Err… hello"
"Kura, I'm so sorry I totally forgot to call you"
"You do realise that when I get my hands on you im gonna kill you"
"Im really sorry, I just sorta forgot to call, and you know. Its just because I've been having a stressful time lately. I cant seem to get me or my thoughts sorted."
"Hmm, whatever, I guess I cant really stay mad at you, but you should really consider investing in one of those memo pad things.."
"Ha, yeah right. Oh well as a peace offering d'ya want to come over today for a sleep over. Im still having trouble sleeping... with... those dreams" Serenity pinched the bridge of her nose /damn life/.
"Aww, wait is that the one where your being chased by a double chocolate Sunday with red hair and raspberry sauce dripping down the side, screaming your name over and over again like its having an orgasm?"
There was a long pause at the other end of the receiver, where it sounded like someone was having trouble not laughing but still trying to stay like a sane human being and remain a good friend.
OoOoOo Forty seven and a half seconds later...1OoOoOo
"Erm... nope, I've never had that dream, what the hell are you talking about?"
"Oh, wait that's my dream, shit" There was a sudden burst of laughter from Serenity at the other end of the line.
"Baka" Sakura mumbled and then added, "I'll come over about three and then we can go out for a bit, how does that sound?"
"Yeah... sure that'll be great... just don't have any...any more dreams of giant man eating Sundays..."she then burst into another fit of laughter.
"Fine. Whatever, I'll see you later kits, stupid baka making fun of my dreams..." Sakura grumbled down the other end of the line to herself and put the phone down. Serenity put the phone back on the hook and stared glumly at the room around her.
"Oh, goodie lets be optimistic and tidy this wonderful room" Renity sang to herself trying to make the prospect of spending the next few hours tidying her room seem more appealing.
"This ain't gonna work, im starting to feel a little depressed actually now were is my little kitty" she finally decided on finding her kitten amongst her numerous piles of laundry, instead of tidying her room was a much better prospect.
"Now that's logic, kitty hunting is more important than redesigning(after much thought I decided that redesigning sounded much more important than tidying) my bedroom. Now if I was a little fat kitten where would I be, come on my little angel, come to your mummy" Serenity cooed. /God where is that cat, oh wait I know I bet she's on the bookshelf again/
"Ah, there you are my lil angel come here" She reached up and carefully lifted her kitten of the shelf.
From where the mysterious visitor was he got a pretty good view of her slim waist as the top moved slowly up her body, to let her reach for her kitten and her long back hair swish lazily across her butt. He smiled to himself, if only he could be there wrapping his arms around his angels waist, or at least be the hair swishing back and forth. He watched her gently lift the half sleeping kitten and walk over to the bed. She sat there contentedly scratching the cat between its ears as it purred.
"Come on we gotta get ready for Kura to come, wanna help me Neki,"(if anyone wants to know Neki is the name of the cat, if you didn't know already). The cat turned his tiny head and looked up at her with tiny amber eyes, with a questioning look.
"I guess not, oh well we better get you fed and me ready, my podgy lil friend." The kitten nestled down in her hands ready to be carried off to the food. She looked down at the fat, white furball rustling around in her hands and tickling her palms with its nose.
She walked into her gleaming white bathroom and lifted her top off, and searched for her clean sports bra.
"I know I left it here somewhere" she mumbled "NEKI have you seen my bra anywhere, you better not have tried to use it as a bed like last time" The kitten bounded in to the bathroom with the bra in its mouth. It looked very comical, the fat, white furball tried to run into the room, while the garment tried to trip it up as it got tangled in its legs. It eventually came to a stop when it finally fell and rolled towards her. He looked up dazed with a strap hanging off one ear.
"Ah, thanks my lil neko bud, so you did know where it was," She tried to scold the cat but it didn't work it just looked at her innocence full in its overly large amber eyes.
She walked out of the bathroom in only here cropped sports top (I got fed up of writing sports bra all the time) and baggy black pants. The figure almost fell off his secret perch as he watched her and unconsciously licked his lips.
She dressed herself in clean clothes, which included a black turtle neck jumper with a yin and yang symbol on the back, fingerless black gloves with white wings on the top and some jeans. She put her hair loosely in a bobble and lifted her bangs out of her eyes with a sorta bandana thing like a strip of material, which was of course black.
When she was happy with her appearance she set out tidying her room. She was almost done when she decided to have her breakfast and some coffee.
"I'll come back later and finish the job." She muttered to herself, not looking entirely happy with even more work to do.
Switching the cd player off Serenity went out of her room and into the kitchen to make some pancakes, she hummed happily to herself and soon the smell of freshly cooked pancakes filled the apartment.
She sat on the worktop eating her food, soon settling the protests of her hungry tummy.
"Do you want some more food Neki?" she asked as she watched it spin around on the dish in the microwave, sliding from side to side. He looked up from his game and meowed softly it then stared at the door to her bedroom. Neki ran to the fruit bowl and jumped in covering itself with the many assortments of fruit. /What's up with Neki hes acting like hes seen a dog!/ She jumped off her counter and placed the dishes into the sink.
"Washing up later I think," she said while screwing up her face in disgust /I really should clean up more often/ she mentally scolded.
She tidied up along the way, chucking random pieces of rubbish into the bin and piling up magazines and newspapers. Serenity opened her door to be greeted by the sound of Still Standing by the Rasmus.
"Im sure I switched the cd player off so how did... what the..." Serenity stopped dead in her tracks, the room was sparkling clean everything had a place, her bed was made and her closet actually had clothes in it, there was actually a floor. She stumbled across the spotless floor and came to the bed. She stared at it in disbelief. On the bed was a single deep red rose with a note attached.
She looked about the room, suddenly feeling very aware that she was not alone, she was sure someone was watching her. She lifted up the note and opened it very slowly not sure if she really wanted to know what it said:
Dear my darling Kitten,
I watch you day by day, and I regret not having you by my side. I listen to you sing as you fill my heart with an immeasurable happiness and I watch you care for you friends and others. But when will my little kitten need looking after? Who looks after her when she needs a hand? I will and always do. You have broken down my walls of ice around my heart, you have shown me another possibility to my life that I never knew existed. I love you. I will be there to protect you and wash away all your troubles. I will love you forever and always. I will guard you and no more hurt shall come to you my love.
Yours forever
K
Ps I cleaned your room I hope you don't mind, I thought you looked like you might need a hand.
She read the letter twice then sat down on her bed. Her hands were shaking and she felt ill. Someone had been watching her, and they said they loved her. But know one loved her, yeah sure she had friends but she had no one to hold her at night and to make her feel special in that way. She thought back she had always had a troubled childhood, difficulties to over come. She supposed she had Sakura, she was like a sister as well as a friend, she had been there when things got bad and always helped her through it. A sudden wave of tiredness and nausea pulsed through her. He couldn't take it she felt confused and didn't understand. Someone was watching here. Stalking her maybe. And then her dreams, those terrible nightmares that coursed through her body, mind and soul every night.
"What's happening to me, why now when my life is becoming harder than ever". She stared at the rose as she lay on her side and rolled over.
"Why, I just don't understand." She looked at her ceiling. Serenity tried to remember a thought from long ago, something her mother or mother like figure had said. But all she could feel was a tight knot of anguish thumping in her mind. Then a huge storm of darkness filled her heart. She let out a small whimper.
Then the dream from last night tore through her mind. It was like a blinding light tearing her apart. She tried to scream. She felt it leave her mouth but couldn't hear it.
"Help, someone please" she sobbed as more memories and nightmares came flooding back into her mind. She was running then there was no floor and she was falling. She was being beaten, kicked, she let out another anguished sob. The light intensified and she screamed louder./Why wouldn't anyone save her/ She saw her friends lying dead on the floor, she looked down at her hands. There was blood everywhere and it completely covered her hands. She looked up and saw Sakura running towards her screaming for help. She tried to run toward her to help her, but an invisible force held her back. A huge wave of darkness rushed towards her a cloaked man emerged from the cloud, cape covering his face holding a knife. He was walking over to the running Sakura, she screamed out to warn her, to get away, to get out of here and hide. But no sound left her. He grabbed her and stabbed her over and over again with the knife, blood poured out of her, and still he kept on stabbing her. He let go of her and she slumped to the ground, clearly dead. Serenity let out another piercing scream as he trudged over to he so slowly. She struggled to move she but she was bound to the spot. Fear gripped her. He lifted the knife as he slowly brought back the hood with his free hand. He was going to kill her she knew it. He brought down the knife and it pierced her body filling her with an unsurpassable pain. The face she knew she must see it. It was vital and of uttermost importance. But she fell the pain was too much. She never managed to see the face.
She jolted up and found herself clasped tightly in someone's arms. Slowly whispering calm soothing words of comfort. She felt safe protected. She snuggled further into the tight embrace, wishing it never to stop. Her senses slowly crept back and she started trying to work out were she was. He kissed her head.
She opened her eyes and saw she was being held in a well-muscled torso, obviously belonging to a guy, a guy that worked out a lot. He was wearing a tight black top and he had the most beautiful hair she had ever seen, midnight blue at the back and silver blue at the front. He rubbed her back reassuringly. She noticed she was in her room, pillows and bed covers were thrown all over the room, /what's been going on/ she thought slightly puzzled. /Oh my God, wait I'm being held by this guy in my room, hang on what's he doing here. This is too weird. Shit I think I might be in trouble/ She started to pull franticly out of the boys embrace.
"Let go of me. Get lost whoever you are. I don't know what you're doing here but get out. NOW." She punched him in the stomach and he doubled over in pain, releasing her immediately. She got up and ran over to the door. It was locked.
"Help" she started whimpering to herself to herself. The boy turned to look at her. He had amazing crimson eyes. She stared deep into them getting slowly lost. She felt oddly safe and comforted whenever she looked at him. Something was definitely wrong.
"Don't worry I'm not going to hurt you." He stood up and tried to reach her but fell back down to the ground with a soft thump and a murmur of pain. Serenity hovered around the door for a few seconds longer. She looked at him assessing the risk of going near him. She could fight, quite well in fact. Her last job had greatly involved being able to protect herself and others around her while completing the mission to the highest efficiency. But she was tired and hadn't been eating well lately. He looked very strong, so in the state she was in she wouldn't stand a chance. Then she noticed a small pool of blood dripping onto the floor. Serenity rushed over to him, helped him onto her bed and laid him down. From there she looked at him more closely. He was about the same age but slightly taller than her and his skin was pale. He wore a tight black top with matching coloured combat pants. He had a white scarf around his neck and blue shark fins on his face, two on each cheek.
"Are you ok?" She asked the blood was still trickling from his stomach. /surly I didn't cause that much harm. I know I have a strong punch but not that strong/. He opened his crimson eyes and looked at her.
"I thought you wanted me to go" He said a slight smirk playing across his lips.
"Yeah, but look at you, your hurt. I don't want you here but I can't let you go like that. Here let me help you." She lifted herself off her bed and walked to her bathroom, she reached up to the top shelf of her cupboard, much to the pleasure of the hurt figure, and lifted out a first aid kit. She walked back over to the bed and opened the case.
"Did I do that?" Serenity asked while searching for the bandages and cream.
"No." he said bluntly
"Oh, Its just I didn't mean to hurt you earlier, I mean I did but..." She sighed, "I didn't know who you were, I suppose you just startled me. Sorry." She leaned over and started to lift his blood soaked shirt up. He grabbed her hand.
"What do you think you're doing," He growled at her.
"Well I cant help you if I cant see what's hurting you can I?" a soft grunt of agreement left his lips and she carried on working.
It was terrible, long deep gashes covered his chest and back. Dark purple bruises and small white scars littered his toned body. She gently cleaned away the blood and bandaged the cuts. She carefully put her hand on one of the bruises, he shuddered slightly and there was a sharp intake of breath.
"Sorry" she repeated again and quickly brought back her hand. He smiled. It was haunting, a shiver went down her spine, she was sure she had seen it before. A sudden rush of questions filled her mind as she started to put back the ointments and bandages.
"So tell me who you are and what your doing here" She said a little more harshly than she had meant it, but she needed to know; a sense of caution ran through her mind, telling her not to ask questions, to get out. Immediately. But curiosity had always killed the cat.
"Im Kai." Kai...K. The letter. There was something definitely not right. He continued. "I heard you screaming and I came and helped you. You were thrashing about on the floor and crying. I tried to help, sorry if I startled you."
"Its ok, im glad you helped me" Serenity smiled and walked back into the bathroom to put the first aid kit away. She returned and something jumped out at her in her mind about what he had just said. "Wait, how did you see me struggling on the floor, I never let you in and my apartments quite high up." She paused again; she didn't want him here any longer his stay was officially worn out.
"I was... watching over you, making sure that you didn't get hurt." Kai chose his words carefully, trying to not further upset his troubled kitten.
"That's it I want you out right now. Unlock the door right now and leave" She ran over to the space between the bathroom and her door.
"Now why would I do that" and evil smirk played on Kais face. Serenity let out a small whimper. This was not going well. He stood up (with his T-shirt off) and paced towards the scared Serenity. She rushed over to the bathroom door and slammed it shut behind her. Kai got a face full of door. He really didn't mean to upset her. He cared so much about her. He let out a low sigh, pulled his T-shirt on and jumped gracefully out of the window.
"Why don't you understand?" He muttered as he left her hiding in the bathroom.
