Chapter seven

Choice

And I'm back! I'm currently typing this from California! WOOT! Well, I asked for reviews and I haven't gotten many, but according to most of you, I can't have Momiji forget his past with Hatsuharu, that's fine, I asked you're opinion. So, one person said I should do B, saving Momiji just in time. Of course someone else e-mailed me and said I should have Hatsuharu forget….. So I've decided to do……… oh, yeah, like I'm gonna tell, you. Read on, review, I love ya'll

"I've been expecting you Momiji, although I didn't realize you would be coming as well, miss Honda," Slowly he looked at Tohru as though she were a piece of crap on his shoe. He then glanced in the direction of Hatsuharu, and decided to ignore him for the moment. "Please, come in, I've got tea all ready for us," Slowly he turned toward a table behind him and started pouring tea.

Momiji had forgotten how much he hated being around Akito. /It's like the air is still, every molecule in the air knows that there is something wrong here. There aren't even any birds here this morning, like they sense the tragedy that will happen soon…./ For a split second he thought that he might turn back, just forget it and move on. Then it came again, like a flash of lightening through his mind. The pain and fear he had felt, the joy and ravishment on his best friends voice as he raped him. And he knew he couldn't just turn away from that, he couldn't just say 'I forgive you' and move on. "I have something to tell you Akito."

Hatsuharu listened to the description of his wrongdoing. He hadn't been able to see or comprehend what his other half had been doing while he had been knocked out. He could feel hot tears roll from his eyes as he listened. His heart ached with the fact that he had caused his love, his one desire, the one thing in the world he loved, such pain and agony. That he could be capable of such evil that he could harm that beautiful flower of a person. /I'm so sorry my little bunny-kun…./ and he listened on. Soon Momiji was once again in tears and was being held by Tohru who was comforting him and crying right along with him. Hatsuharu was near bawling.

Akito's cold voice sliced throught the sadness like a sharpened katana. "And what is it you wish for me to do about it? Hmmm? I can't help you at all can I?" He took Momiji's delicate, tear-stained face in his hand. "Say it. I can not assume what you wish for me to do."

Hatsuharu cursed the head off the family's name. /Bullshit you just want him to say it you, you sadistic bastard/

"I… sniff I want you to erase my memory of Hatsuharu." Slowly Momiji stood up and knelt before Hatori. A tear fell down his cheek and dampened the top of his hand. He whispered to himself. "I hope I'm doing the right thing." And he nodded. "Do it."

Hatori placed a shaky hand over the Rabbit's eyes. "So be it." Their was short hissing noise, like a bullet going through a silencer, and Momiji fell back with the force of the spell.

"Noooo!" Hatsuharu leapt out from behind the door. "Momiji!" He ran toward the little Blonde one. "Momiji, I-I didn't mean it," He knelt down and cradled his best friend in his arms as though he was the cow's child. "Momiji-chan, Momiji-chan…." His voice trailed off as tears and sadness filled his whole being. He looked up to Tohru. "Why, Why didn't you Stop Him!" he shook his head violently. "You could have talked him out of it! You could've… could've." His body gave way as everything that had happened in the last few hours hit him.

Tohru crawled toward him on her hands and knees and hugged him softly. "Would you really have wanted Momiji to stay living with those memories of you? Would you want him to stay alive thinking of how you raped him every time he saw you? Then, when ever you touched him he would think of the feeling of you inside him. Now you two will be able to start new." Hatsuharu turned so he was facing her, he buried his face in her chest and breathed and cried. Slowly the pain in his heart abated.

"No, It's not new yet." He tried to stand up but found he didn't have the strength. He dragged himself and Momiji upright and looked Hatori, "Start my new life with Momiji."

Again Hatori laid his hand on the boy's eyes. "So be it." There was another hiss of a silencer and Hatori fell with Momiji in his arms.
