Love is a Battlefield

[Chapter Twelve]

"One Day You Will Open Your Eyes and See Her"

Gemini yawned, pulling herself tiredly up the stairs, blinking sleep from her amber eyes.

        All she wanted to do right now was take a shower, eat, and then sleep. Not necessarily in the order.

        But she couldn't blame this on anyone but herself.

        Or she could blame it on biology, or the fact that Sirius hasn't been trained to sustain long periods of not eating.

        Or she could blame Fudge, who had given her the idea in the first place, all those months ago.

        But now it was different, she was doing this on her own free will.

        And her only reward was the crumbled wad of bills or the bag full of galleons. And the only person who bled was herself.

        She opened the door to their new apartment, only to be greeted by Sirius with a baseball bat.

        A standard procedure.

        "You didn't come home last night."

        "I'm aware," Gemini replied, pushing past Sirius and into the apartment the she and Sirius had shared with her brother and his lover.

        "Mind telling me where you went?"

        Gemini paused in her tracks, sighing as she turned around to face the obviously annoyed former Gryffindor, "I was out working. I told you that I had gotten a job," she snapped, removing the money, both muggle and wizard, from her back pocket, "this should last us through next week."

        Sirius stared at the money that his girlfriend had thrown on to the kitchen table, before watching her retreating back towards the back of the apartment, disappearing in to the bathroom.

        'Gem Gem,' Lucifer asked softly, 'How are you doing?'

        'I was almost caught last night Lucifer,' Gemini replied as she turned the water on, trying to rub away the layers of filth from her body, 'some small-time pimp.'

        'What happened?'

        'I killed him,' Gemini replied darkly, squeezing a generous amount of shampoo into her hands, 'I snapped his neck after he tried to inject me with something.'

        'A drug. Heroine most likely. You're lucky to get away with out a hit.'

        'No need to remind me,' Gemini snapped, working the coconut scented shampoo through her body fluid coated hair. 'But he's dead; I just have to look out for other pimps. I can't afford to be caught. Gemini Cielo is dead, and Diana Sky is missing in action.... or a prisoner of war, I can't remember what they labeled me.'

        A silence.

        'You're thinking of him again. Sirius will be pissed if he finds out.'

        'But Sirius will never find out, will he Lucifer?'

        'I know he holds a place in your heart, I've felt it since you first ran into him, and I have yet to meet him.'

        Gemini smiled wistfully and replied, 'You'd like him. He's very modest, and very smart. And charming.'

        Another silence. It only made Gemini's small smile grow. She knew what her brother was thinking about.

        'I have Xander, don't tease me,' her brother laughed, nervously.

        'Oh, I know that you'd love him.' Gemini taunted, rising the shampoo from her hair, 'brown hair, blue eyes, so very attractive and some what naïve... and he's not completely mortal either.'

        'Huh?'

        'He's a werewolf Lucifer. A Bisexual werewolf who is afraid of intimacy because of what happens when people find out about him.'

        'What are you trying to imply Gem Gem?'

        'All I'm saying is that you and Xander should talk with him break him out of his shell. It'll be good for him, to be around people, well, beings that will accept him for who he is.'

        'Naughty naughty girl. Sirius is a bad influence.'

        Gemini only grinned as she turned off the water, 'You could say that. What is he doing now?'

        'Xander and Sirius are having a stare down for the last pancake from this morning. It's quite amusing actually. I think my boy toys going to win.'

        'Well, Sirius is rather stubborn when he wants to be.'

        Gemini sighed, pulling her white robe around her body and opened the bathroom door, and walked down the hallway and into the kitchen where Sirius and Xander were, in fact, sitting across from each other at the kitchen table, neither of them blinking.

        Lucifer was sitting on the counter, his legs swinging, holding a mug of coffee to his grinning lips.

        'Should I?'

        Lucifer's grin only grew, 'you're so evil'

        Gemini held her hand out, smirking as she used her telekinesis to hover the pancake into her awaiting hand, then into her mouth.

        "That was rather unkind mistress," Xander complained, crossing his arms over her chest, pouting slightly.

        A smirk invaded Gemini's face as she leaned over, kissing the pale demon on the cheek, "Sorry dear."

        Sirius sputtered, "Do I get a kiss?"

        Gemini looked over at her boyfriend, placing her closed fists on her hips.

        She closed her eyes, and she chose to ignore the comment that her brother projected her.

        'You're thinking of him again.'

        'Let it be Lucifer'

        'No,' he snapped, 'you need to complete the prophesy. Sirius is the one to do the deed, not this Remus fellow you've been pining after.'

        'I haven't been pining.'

        'You have. Xander has noticed it as well. And Sirius thinks it's for him.'

        'Shut up Lucifer," Gemini growled in her mind, narrowing her eyes at her slightly younger brother.

        Gemini leaned over and kissed Sirius softly on the head before announcing, "I'm off to bed. I need to sleep."

        Gemini stared at her brother, pushing a memory in to his mind before she fled out of the kitchen, clutching her robe tighter around her thin body.

         "Gemini!" Remus hissed as he stopped running, skidding to a stop, facing the enraged girl's back at the edge of the forbidden forest, "It's after hours, they'll suspend you if they find you out here!"

        "I do not care nor do I wish to go inside," Gemini said lightly, her voice dripping with an uncontrollable anger that only she could posses. "Do you know what they did Remus?" she ask the boy, turning around to face him, her shoulders rising and falling with each heave of air.

        "Who? What happened?" Remus asked gently, stepping forward but stopping at she recoiled.

        "They're dead," She whispered in a hysterically tone, her eyes ablaze with an insane tint, "My parents. Gone forever."

        "Oh my god," Remus whispered, not only in to her response, but in to what she had done.

        Remus knew, just as everyone else did, that Gemini had the psychic ability to move things with her mind, but what he also knew was that natural psychic didn't have the ability to control their powers in an emotional state.

        So it would only be natural that half the trees in the forbidden forest where now snapped in half and that the large bolder that once sat in front of the army of trees now slept peacefully under the black water of the lake.

        "Gemini--"

        "I'm not finished Remus," She snapped, "It's not very proper to interrupt people. I woke up when my brother connected with me, he had the same damn dream I did, the same vision and you know what happened Remus?" she asked, bringing her hands out in front of her, "This happened. Lumos."

        Remus stood agape as the light sprung from her finger tips, illuminated her forehead, revealing a startling crescent moon mark that was a shade or two lighter than her skin. It shimmered slightly in the darkness, through thick stands of Diana's umber locks.

        "How?" Remus asked in shock, his eyes fixed on her fingers, trying to figure out she could have controlled her magic with out a wand.

        "nox," Gemini murmured in a light tone before enveloping them in the darkness, "I don't know," she said, looking up at the half moon, a weird look in her wild eyes, "I really don't know, but if it happened to my brother," she looked down as her hands, balling them in to fists as a smirk graced her lips, "We're going to have some serious problems."

        She turned around to face the forest before throwing her head back, an insane sort of laughter filling the crisp night air.

        Remus, who could find no humor in all of the death and destruction, touched Gemini on her shoulder asking, "What's so funny?"

        Gemini turned around, a wide grin on her angular face, "That is going to take one hell of a restoration charm to fix my mess huh?" she asked, before turning back to admire her work.

        "Gemini..."

        "My head hurts," Gemini declared, rubbing her left temple as turned from the forest, then promptly collapsing on the ground.

        "Shit," Remus hissed as he bent down to pick up the unconscious girl, and carried her to the hospital wing.

       

        'I'd be dead if Remus didn't find me, my mind was beginning to collapse on itself from the sudden amount of energy I needed. If he had found me twenty minutes later I'd be dead. I owe him my life Lucifer. My life. Without Remus, there would be no one to complete the prophesy.'

        Lucifer's mouth gaped open as he looked at the door in which his sister exited from.

        "What's the matter?" Xander asked softly, touching Lucifer's arms softly, a worried look in his red, pupil-less eyes.

        "Nothing darling," Lucifer reassured him, still starting at the door, "Gem Gem just sent me something..."

        Diana stared smugly at her twin brother who suddenly found his feet very interesting as she avoided his sister's haughty stare.

        "I told you your heir was second guessing mine. I want my back rub."

        "Bitch."

        "I heard that."

Gemini opened her eyes and didn't even bother to conceal the outward groan of displeasure as she realized where she was.

        She was dreaming.

        Again.

        The whole dreaming this was beginning to get old to her, as Diana Sky she never dreamed, now she was plagued with lucid dreams, dreams should feel, taste, touch.

        Dreams in which she knew she was dreaming. Dreams in which she could have anything she wanted. In which she could be five years old again, dreams where the last thing on her mind was the threat of Voldemort finding out that she was still alive... and not being able to do anything about it.

        But here she was again, clad in her pajamas and a pair of thick black socks, standing in her old bed room.

        Looking at the stain on the wall, the stain that was there because blood seeped from the back of her head, she decided that she didn't want it to be there anymore.

        So it wasn't.

        Being in a lucid dream was like playing God, or playing Diana rather, she could control anything that she wanted with her thoughts.

        Too bad the laws of lucid dreams didn't apply to the real world.

        "Why do you hate me?"

        Startled by the small voice Gemini spun in her spot to see a young girl standing in front of the now closed door.

        She was dirty, but not the kind of living on the streets dirty. A brown smudge streaked across her left cheek, blending in with her sun kissed complexion. Two orbs of brown pierced through Gemini from narrowed eyes, two small fists clenched in rage.

        Her white dress was torn, white shoes scuffed.

        She was bleeding.

        "W-what?" Gemini managed to stammer as she backed up against the far wall.

        "Why do you hate me?" the girl said again taking a step forward to counter act Gemini's evasion.

        She was barely eight years old, and the bruise that was forming over her left cheekbone looked fresh. A gash adorned her left arm, staining her torn white dress.

        "I- I don't."

        Her hair was dark brown and reached down to her elbows, each strand matted to her head with a combination of sweat and mud.

        Her white stockings where tainted brown at the knees, ripped open in some places, running in others.

        "Yes you do," She said accusingly, "You call me names all the time. You ignore me. You forgot about me."

        Gemini's eyes widened as the girl turned from her and towards the small dresser to the side of the room.

        She was so small, small enough for Gemini to put her hands around her waist and still have room.

        She was wearing her big-girl panties, the ones with the pink flowers embroidered in them. She couldn't see them, but she could remember.

        "He hit you, didn't he?" Gemini whispered hoarsely, watching the girl wince as she picked her arms up, pulling the white dress along with it.

        "You know. You were there already. When Sandro made fun of you for having such a weird brother. For being a freak. When he pushed you in Mrs. Diego's olive garden for calling him a weakling. When you stood up again and attacked him with the same combination that you learned earlier that day. When Papa caught you fighting and back handed your face. You were there. So there's not need to ask me about it."

        She was only eight yet she spoke as if she were an adult, the young, carefree spirit an eight year old should posses was stolen from her the moment her brother was taken from her.

        "I don't hate you," Gemini said more firmly this time, pushing herself gently off the wall, "I'm sorry that he hit you."

        The little girl laughed harshly before looking at Gemini, pulling a red tee-shirt over her head, "Why should you be. You where there, you had the bruises, you had the scars; you know what its like. But I want to know why you never let them heal? Every scar that you open up again, every blood vessel you break to form another bruise happens to me," she turned away again, but she still continued to speak, but in a much different tone of voice than from before, more like her age. "Did I do something wrong? You can tell me right? I thought I was special, special because I can make things happen, special that I have telekinesis. Just like Lucifer was special that he could talk to me with out making his lips move. Lucifer was special, but Papa sent him away," she turned to Gemini her lower lip tucked under her two front teeth, "He's not going to send me away, is he?"

        Gemini shook her head and she dropped to her knees, "papa won't be sending you away. But you'll be getting more bruises, and more scars and more tears in your dresses. Then you'll grow up to be a very bad person," Gemini wrapped her arms around her self as she continued to speak, her voice quivering, "You'll hurt a lot of people, to many to name. And you'll do it with out remorse; you won't feel bad if someone bleeds..."

        "Don't cry," she said softly, and Gemini opened her eyes to see the younger version of herself kneeling in front of her, "Papa says that only weak people cry. We're not weak."

        Gemini let out a harsh laugh and replied, "I've forgotten how to cry," Gemini looked up and asked softly, "Can I hug you?"

        The little girl smiled and threw her arms around Gemini's neck, digging her hands deep in Gemini's dark umber locks.

        Gemini carefully wrapped her hands around the girls waist, careful not to touch the bruised ribs that she couldn't see, but knew was there. There were so many things she wanted to tell her; not to leave her gloves on her bed when she was nine, not to pout when she didn't get the bike she wanted when she was ten, not to look to too happy when she got kicked out of La Luna's, not to look so disappointed when she is forced to go to Scotland for schooling because those next seven years will be the happiest years of her life.

        "What's that from?" she asked softly, lightly touching the crescent mark on Gemini's forehead.

        Gemini smiled warmly and said, "Would you like me to tell you a story?"

        "A story? Like a bed time story? I've never had one of those before..." a suspicious look flashed across her face as she looked at Gemini seriously, "You're not going to make me to go bed, are you?"

        Gemini smiled and shook her head, "Not at all."

        "All right then," she replied, making herself comfortable in Gemini's lap as Gemini leaned back against the wall with the small window.

        And the bloodstain, which had not been there before.

        "This is the Gospel Vangelo of the Witches. Diana greatly loved her brother Lucifer—"

"Lucifer!" The small girl asked, arching her neck to look at Gemini, "Like my brother Lucifer?"

Gemini smiled knowingly and replied, "You could say that. As I was saying, she loved Lucifer, the god of the Sun, the god of Light and the god of Splendor, who was so proud of his beauty. Diana had by her brother a daughter, to whom they gave the name of Aradia."

"Aradia... I like that name."

"As do I, very beautiful, yes?"

"Yeah."

"Well in those days there were on earth many rich and many poor. The rich made slaves of the poor. In those days were many slaves who were cruelly treated; in every palace tortures, in every castle prisoners. Many slaves escaped. They fled to the country; they became thieves and evil folk. Instead of sleeping at night, they plotted escape and robbed their masters. So they lived in the mountains and forests as robbers and assassins, all to avoid slavery."

"Do you think I could move to the mountains, to live with the robbers and assassins? To escape my life here?"

Gemini bit her lip as kissed the girl on the forehead, "Don't worry darling, things will get better. If you ever feel like you want to fun away to the mountains, I want to you talk to the moon."

"The moon?"

"Yes, the moon," Gemini replied, smiling, "She is very wise, and she'll always listen to you."

"Really?"

"Absolutely."

"Gooood morning all you witches and wizards out there, its 6 o'clock and your know what that means—"

"Die."

Sirius dropped his wand as he buried his head further under his pillow, ignoring the burning plastic smell that was being emitted from the now charred muggle alarm clock.

The fourth charred muggle alarm clock this month.

Stupid muggle alarm clocks.

        "Wake up darling," Gemini said softly, trailing her fingers down Sirius's nude side, "You have to go to work."

        Sirius groaned, rolling over on his side towards Gemini, burying his face in Gemini's stomach.

        "Up, now," Gemini commanded reaching over and pinching Sirius's posterior before rolling out of bed, dragging the sheets with her.

        Sirius's eyes shot open.

        Was that a sexual advance that she just made?

        Sirius found out later that day that was not a sexual advance.

        Apparently it was the last thing on her mind when she and Sirius took a little trip to visit the deacon of the church that James and Lily belonged to after Sirius got home from work.

        There was a grand fight between Gemini and Deacon Keller on Gemini's ability to become James and Lily's child's godmother.

        Apparently you had to be devoted to the Christian god, and that didn't fly to well with Gemini.

        After a slew of enraged Italian swear words she stormed out of the Cathedral, leaving a blushing Sirius with many apologies on his girl friends part.

        And the day started off so nicely, Sirius thought as they reached the apartment to find it empty... and about ten degrees hotter that it was outside.

        Gemini tried the light switch to find that the lights didn't work.

"FUCK!" Gemini hissed, slamming her hand down on the kitchen/poker table, the table bending under the pressure.

She turned to face the fridge, only to find a note written by her brother stello-taped to the door.

'Hey Gem Gem. Yeah, it was mighty hot in here so Xander and I took a trip to Atlantis to torment the tourists and Jesus Freaks. See you tomorrow morning! Ti amo!'

"Gem, calm down," Sirius said softly, putting his hands on her shoulders and pulling her against him, "I'll just have to work overtime, no big deal. I'd ask my father for the money, but he'll hex me dead."

        "You don't need to," Gemini said numbly, "I'll get the money."

        "Huh? How?"

        "I'll be back," Gemini said harshly as she left the room leaving Sirius by himself.

        She was doing it again.

        And Sirius had had enough.

        She returned minutes later, dressed in her old black mission attire.

        "Where are you going?" Sirius spat, staring at her through narrow eyes.

        "Out," was Gemini simple reply as she walked in to the kitchen, leaning down to give Sirius as quick kiss.

        "Don't," Sirius snapped, jerking his head away. "I want to know where you're going."

        Gemini stepped back, startled at Sirius's sudden demanding questions.

        "I'm going to work."

        "Where do you work?"

        "It doesn't matter where I work just as I long as I get the money."

        "what do you do?"

        "Work."

        "Gemini, tell me where you work, tell me what you do, why are you not telling me anything!"

        "it doesn't concern you.'

        "it concerns You so it concerns ME."

        "Let it BE Sirius!"

        "If you leave this apartment..."

        "Sirius..." Gemini said softly, walking out of the room and towards their front door.

        "If you leave through that door Gemini, I wont be here when you come back. And I wont be here the next day. Or the next day..."

        Gemini looked back, and saw the desperate look in his eyes.

        "I'm doing this for you Sirius," Gemini whispered, before adverting her eyes and walking through the door.

        While she was walking down the narrow hall way she heard a roar of hate from her apartment, and a loud slam as the table was thrown across the kitchen.

Gemini sighed, closing her eyes and adjusting the vinyl shorts that were sticking to her body in the immense June heat. She sometimes wondered why she still did this, standing out on the corners ,night after night, waiting for men, and sometimes women, to pick her up and bring her back to their homes. Some where married, some where not; some where magical, somewhere not; some where diseased, some where not but regardless of their marital status, magical abilities or health records they all had the one thing that she needed.

Money.

Whether it was in pounds, dollars, galleons or franks it was still money and it would still keep a roof over her head and food in her stomach.

It's not her fault that Sirius and Lucifer can't last long with out food or water, but she had to do the best she could to give it to them.

Even if it meant selling her body once again.

Just as long as Sirius didn't find out thing would be fine.

She sighed as she put her left foot up on the wall she was leaning on, wishing that she had not left her hair down in the summers heat.

The things she did for Sirius, and he would never know.

Sirius stormed out of his apartment, slamming the door behind him and savagely pulling on his fingerless leather gloves, hoping that every one in the damn apartment complex was just as miserable as he was.

He was sick of this.

Sick of everything. Sick of the war, sick of his new job, and sick of the messed up, one way relationship he had with 'the perfect weapon' Gemini. He loved her. Loved her with all of his heart, and he knew that Gemini loved him as well, but he knew that she would never be able to show him that.

He knew that it was a long shot going after Gemini, and no one could disagree with him. She wasn't like any girl that he known, and that is what first drew Sirius in, but he should have realized in the beginning that it wouldn't work out. Especially after he had found her again, and when he had finally found out why she was missing.

She was an assassin, as feared, cutthroat and ruthless as they came. She slipped through his fingers though when Diana Sky was created, yet the gods above knew it was destined and put them together once again.

According to the wizarding world Gemini Cielo was dead.

        Diana Sky was perfect. Even the ministry called her so. The perfect weapon. Trained to be indestructible since a young age, taught to ignore her emotions, to deny the very thing that made her human. She put her life on the line everyday to complete her missions. Sirius greatest fear when he sat behind a desk was whether Gemini would come home that night.

And some nights she didn't.

        And she went out again tonight, leaving Sirius with a million questions on where she could be, why she was there, who she was with. She has been slipping out of the house after the sun when down, clad in her old mission attire which consisted of her black pants, black tank top, and black, high necked coat that fell around her knees.

She hasn't been her self lately. She would come home early each morning in the same state of blood shot eyes, her breath coming in short gasps. She would walk straight to the bathroom, her arms wrapped protectively around her body, her eyes heavily lidded. When she came out of the bathroom however, her eyes where alert, a small upward slant of her lips graced her face and illuminated her features, reminding him on why he loved her so much.

        But he has had enough.

It was officially over between them. If Gemini couldn't physically show him that she loved him, then it was time for him to move on. Ever since he decided to devote himself Gemini, he had to please himself when his raging hormones kicked in. He has been sex free since the last day in Hogwarts, and it was hard for him to remain this way. He needed some, and he needed it now.

        He barreled out of the front door of the apartment building and headed for the garage where his motorbike was in safe keeping. He put his testosterone in to gear, threw one leg over his crotch rocket, and sped off into the night, with one goal in mind.

A good shag.

        He saw them all of the time, working the corners. And on his way home from his new desk job he passed the same girl every night, but he has never seen her face, but she had a body that fit all of his requirements. Small and slender, with curves at every turn. He hoped to God that she was there tonight, because if he was going to bring himself to fuck a hooker, than it might as well be the hooker he wanted.

        He may have felt a pang of guilt, but hey, he was Sirius Black. He has dated more girls that Prongs, Moony and Wormtail put together, not that Moony dated that much, but Prongs was just as bad as him until he started dating Lily.

Why couldn't they be like James and Lily? They had the perfect relationship, and if Gemini was proclaimed perfect, then why couldn't she show him that she loved him.

He asked himself the same question over and over again, and ever though he knew the answer, he didn't want to accept it. After years and years of the hurt, pain, and suffering, the mask that covered Gemini Cielo's emotions grew so strong that even he couldn't break the outer shell. The dreams the two use to share either destined them to love or destruction. It was he who would break through the layer of broken glass and knives; it was him who would release the girl from within the dangerous encasement of her mind.

Sirius slowed his bike down, sweat already forming at his forehead. 'Please be here, oh god please be here' he pleaded in his mind as he passed other girls, all whistling at him as he passed slowly on his motorbike. He stopped short, a wide smile on his face, a true smile, the first for quite some time.

There she was.

She was standing under the same lamp post, her long, red hair flowing over her body like a cloak. Her thigh high, leopard print boots flattered her thin and shapely legs,  blue vinyl shorts following in suit. Her bare muscled stomach divided the blue from the tight black sports bra that covered her upper chest. Long black fingerless gloves graced her arms, a black leather choker topping off her outfit.

        She wore less than she usually did and it only added to his excitement. He rode his bike up to her, letting it roll along the side of the street, until it came to a complete stop in front of her.

        Her head was down, her eyes barely visible behind her choppy, chin length bangs and for a fleeting second her had thought he saw Gemini standing there, but that was impossible, she would never degrade herself to this level again. Besides, Gemini had darker hair and she would never been able to cover that elegant accent of hers.

Another pang of guilt.

        "Hello there beautiful," Sirius said smoothly, a sly smile on his face, "what's a pretty thing like you doing on the streets all alone at night?"

        The girl smiled, her bright red colored lips parting slightly, still not bringing her head up, "I'm a big girl now," she said smoothly, bringing some relief to Sirius when he heard her British accent, "But it's scary," she said bringing her chin up, exposing her piercing green eyes, her smile disappearing when she saw who she was talking to, "Fuck."

        Sirius frowned deeply, just noticing how dilated her eyes where, and the shocked expression on her face.

        "Do I know you?"

        The girl's eyes were still wide as she straightened her back, her face relaxing as she took a step forward, "Can't say I have ever had an encounter with an angel such as yourself before."

        "What's your name sweetheart?"

        "The names Lorelei," Gemini said softly, rolling her hips as she took a step forward, "Yours?"

        "Sirius, Sirius Black."

        Gemini forced a fake smile on her face as she walked to Sirius bike, placing her hands on his handlebars, "The Sirius Black? Hogwarts most sought after in '77?"

        "You've been?"

        "I wish," Gemini laughed through a fake, yet convincing accent, "The only wealth I have are these," she said heavily, pointing to her new, magically grown breasts.

        "You wanna get out of here?"

        "And out of the heat?"

        "Out of this heat."

        "Alright," Gemini agreed, hopping on the back on his bike.

        "My apartment isn't far from here," Sirius said over his shoulder as he pulled away from the corner, "My powers off, but I don't think we'd mind that soon enough."

        "That's fine," Gemini said softly, "Just as long as you can pay."

        "Oh I can," Sirius laughed, "And I'm sure your worth it."

        "Oh I am."

        Gods Sirius, you are so dead when we get home.
