((A/N: Chapter Eleven! Sorry it was late.. I was forced to attend a 4th of July party with my family, which didn't give me enough time to finish this chapter earlier..
To Those Who Reviewed:
Ky0Kichi: Yeah, I know. I don't really care for her either.. You do have a point, but I'm trying to keep the characters in.. character... Anyway, there are still enough chapters left for Haru to go Black and woop people!
MoroTheWolfGod: There'll be more!
Fanged Killers Blood Lust: Um, your welcome. Really? I didn't know I was that fast at updating.. But then again, that depends on how fast you checked your emails.. ((laughs))
Asrais: Well, at least you are reviewing!.. I have a bad habbit of not reviewing after I read.. Kagura sorta gets on my nerves, so I attempted to copy that annoyingness. I couldn't forget about Kyo's main habitat - the roof! ((shrinks away)) okay.. It'll be happy! ((laughs))
Sam I Am: I hoped it would. I like when people laugh at my humor.. Oh no! Tell your puppy that I'm really sorry, but I promise, after I kill the fluffyness one last time I'll make it fluffy again!... Well, I relised that Haru'd felt weird most of his life, but it was him or Kyo.. And Kyo can't leave the hospitl.. He's also supposed to be the outcast.. So Haru was the best choice. The idea wouldn't stop clawing at the back of my mind.. Another way of thinking about it is that Haru doesn't feel weird because of the curse.. It's kinda like he'd feel weird even if he was cursed.. I'm confusing myself.. XD HaruxKyo is cute!
BakaDen: ((laughs)) I'm glad most of you guys thought they were in character. I know, doesn't it! I love that song and when I listened to it for the forth time, I thought,'this would fit well..' Just like I said before, I'm gonna revive it again! I just need it to get a little more serious now.

Chapter 11
((Kyo's POV))
I've been watching you from a distance.
The distance sees through your disguise.
All I want from you is your hurting. I want
to heal you. I want to save you from the dark.
"You're getting out today." Hatori stated dully as he entered the room. "I'm free?" I asked, trying to keep the excitment from my voice. Haru smiled calmly in my direction, lacing his fingers into mine. "Yes Kyo, you're free." Hatori stated with a very small smile. "You do remember that you're going to be stuck in a wheelchair, right?" He asked, deflating the air from my baloon of delight. "Yeah.." I grumbled as Haru hoisted me into the 'Chair Of Doom' As I liked to call the old piece of crap. I hated the old thing with passion, but at least I'd be free. No more nasty hospital food. No more sitting around all freakin' day in only a hospital gown.. That didn't even have a back..
Give unto me, your troubles.
I'll endure your suffering. Place
onto me, your burden. I'll drink
your deadly poison..
"Where do you wanna go before we head to Shigure's?" Haru asked after we successfully changed me out of my hospital gown and back into real clothes. I could still feel my face burning from the memories of him 'helping' me change. The pervert. Saying he should help me since I couldn't stand.. "Kyo?" His voice snapped me out of my thoughts. "Uh, I dunno.." I mumbled, cursing myself for not paying attention. "How about.." He thought for a minute. "How about we go get something to eat?" That was probably a good idea since neither of us had eaten yet. "Okay." I agreed. "Where do you wanna go?" The questions wouldn't stop! "I dunno!" I snapped, getting a little angrier than I should've. Especially at Haru.
Why should I care if they hurt you?
Somehow it matters more to me
than if I were hurting myself. Save you..
We decided on a small resturant about twenty minutes away from Shigure's house. I hoped Haru wasn't still mad about them not visiting me.. It'd been two days since then.. We sat at a small tabel near the back where no one could see us. Except for the waitresses, of course. "Good mourning!" A tall, slim waitress greeted. "What would you two like?" She asked with a smile. I searched the menue for anything cow meat free. I didn't really think Haru would respect that too much.
Save you.. I'll save you.. Give unto
me, your troubles. I'll endure your
suffering. Place onto me your burden.
I'll drink your deadly poison..
"That was good." Haru stated as we left the resturant, heading through a long alleyway. "Where are we going?" A asked as Haru continued to push me. "A shortcut." He replyed. I stared at him for a moment before growling,"You have no sense of direction!.. How would you know about some damn shortcut that I've never heard of!" He just kept on walking. "Trust me." He whispered. I growled again. People got killed in alleyways everyday! What made him think we'd be safe! "Hey!" A voice called from behind us. Haru stopped and turned around. I couldn't see who yelled, since the Ox blocked my vision. I heard an odd click and felt Haru tense. "Give me your money." I heard the voice say. "Yeah, give us your money." More voices. I turned to see about four guys surrounding us. Each had a knife. "We have no money." Haru stated dully. It was true. We'd spent the last of our money at the resturant. "Then say goodnight." Was all I heard before a loud bang exploded in my ears. Gunshot.
Why should I care if they hurt you?
Somehow it matters more to me,
than if I hurt myself. Save you..
Save you.. I'll save you..
I felt my chair being pushed over. I flew out of it and rolled a few feet away. I looked to the direction of Haru to see him turned toward me, gun in bloody hand, grinning like that mad black Haru he was now. He must have pushed me to protect me from the bullet. I had no time to feel love however, because four men I'd seen earlier were closing in on the Ox. The one who was holding the gun, joining them. "Haru!" I yelled as the fight broke out. My heart was beating so fast, I thought it'd fly out of my chest. Haru was gonna get killed.. And all I could do was sit and watch.
Give unto me, your troubles.
I'll endure your suffering.
Place onto me, your burden.
I'll drink your deadly poison.
((Haru's POV))
I was surrounded, but all I could worry about was Kyo. At least they weren't fighting him. Of course, even in the wheelchair, he could probably whip all their asses, but I didn't want to risk it. I knocked one guy out as another punched me from behind. I barely missed a knife aimed at my side and another aimed at my heart. Teo more guys down. The guy with the gun, who was probably the leader, and another guy, who had long ago lost his knife. Now the fighting was fair. I felt a sharp pain on the back of my head and turned to attack the guy who was behind. One man left now... The leader.. This was gonna be a challenge. He seemed even stronger than Yuki!
Fear not the flame of my love's
candle. Let it be the sun in your
world's darkness. Give unto me all
that frightens you. I'll have your
nightmares for you. If you sleep soundly.
((Kyo's POV))
A blow in the head, a stab in the leg, a bullet wound in the hand. Haru was slowly falling apart. There was only one man left, but Haru didn't look like he could take much more. The man looked as if one good kick in the head would do him in, but he was too Damn fast for the Ox. I stopped yelling after the fight began because I knew it would only distract him. The man grinned, showing off his bloody teeth. "Is the cripple really worth it?" He asked with a malice grin. Cripple! That bastard! I hoped Haru kicked his ass nice and hard for that remark!.. Haru made a rage fueled punch at the man's face, but he missed and was kicked in a rather sensitive region. He was then kicked in the stomach. The moment he hit the ground, I knew I had to do something. I used my hands to push myself into a sitting position.. Then everything went too fast to remember properly after that.
Give unto me, your troubles.
I'll endure your suffering.
Place onto me, your burden.
I'll drink your deadly poison.
((Haru's POV))
I fell to the ground. He'd won, but I couldn't give up on Kyo. I didn't want him to get hurt. The man reached down and grabbed the disgarded knife. He pointed it at me and I closed my eyes, waiting for the pain. It didn't come. I heard no gunshot, only a loud grunt. I also heard a loud panting. What was happening? Had someone come to save us. I was about to open my eyes, but the gunshot I'd been awaiting echoed inside my ears. I still felt no pain, so I opened my eyes. There, standing - actually standing- infront of me was Kyo. His leg held in the air as if he'd just kicked someone. Which I guess he had, since the last man was laying at his feet. The gun about two feet away and a bullet hole in the wall next to it. Kyo, between pants of exaustion, stated,"He looked as if he'd go down with one more kick.." His eyes clouded over. "I wasn't just gonna.. Sit around.." He then fell onto my lap, unconscious, not dead. The fact that he fainted wasn't what shocked me. What I was more curious about was how.. Kyo walked.. Had two years passed that quick?.. No, Kyo was just amazing.
Fear not the flame of my love's
candle. Let it be the sun in your
world of darkness. Give unto me
all that frightens you. I'll have your
nigtmares for you, if you sleep soundly.
"He walked?" Hatori's voice asked through the phone. "Yeah." I stated simply, staring at Kyo through the glass of the phone booth. "He aloso knocked a guy out." The only thing I heard was silence, so I continued. "We were getting mugged, but had no money." I stated. I heard Hatori sigh. "That 'shortcut' Shigure told you about isn't real, Haru." He stated. It wasn't? Damnit, Kyo was right. How come the only time I actually listen to Shigure is when he's lying! I hear Hatori's dry laughter. "How's he now?" He asked. "Kyo?" I replyed. "He's asleep.. He feel unconscious shortly after the fight." There was silence then Hatori stated,"I guess he felt that he'd spent too much time sitting." I smiled. "Guess so."
Fear not the flame of my love's candle.
Let it be the sun in your world of darkness...
