Chapter 8

"Damn it Tsuzuki!" Tatsumi slammed his fist the desk. His knuckles turned white from the anger and the blood that rushed to his head. Tsuzuki refused to state where he had been for so long.

"I'm sorry Tatsumi but I cant." That was his only answer for the entire morning that they were talking.

"Your a fool! No body knows what going to happen to if you go to that meeting! Do you even know whats going on right now?" Tatsumi had been yelling all morning and couldn't take it any more.

"I'll be fine. What can they do? I'm the strongest Shinigami here." Tsuzuki tried his best to assure his friends that everything was OK. Gods knows if it really worked.

"But Tsuzuki-Kun... if you go with out any help or forewarning as to whats going to happen..."

"Stop it. I'm going to come back... just like I always do." Tsuzuki got up and walked out the room. His next stop the Gods. But truth be told Tsuzuki had no idea what could happen to him.

Tsuzuki walked down the narrow path down to two big golden doors with no knobs.

"I wonder whats really going to happen." Tsuzuki asked himself before pushing the doors into a very bright light. Little did he know that two pairs of eyes watched his every move. One green and another sliver.

"Come fourth Tsuzuki of the twelve spirits." Said Zerla of the four noble gods.

The four Gods are Zerla, the only maiden of the gods but equally powerful. Tensei, kind but would be extremely cruel to make a point. Raidon, a thunder like god who's very high temper as caused fear among the shinigami who dared to opposes and still be alive. And Yasuo, the strongest and most peaceful god.

"Where did you go!" Thunder raged from the corners of the endless gold and sliver room.

"Good afternoon Raidon. I see your temper hasn't changed." Tsuzuki put on a warm smile but didn't forget who he was talking to. He took more baby steps forward. He looked to to see Zerla trying to calm down Raidon.

"Tsuzuki-San, did you know you were classified dead right?"

"Yes."

"Will you be stating your where abouts?" Said Tensei who cut front of the two to show that he was there. "If you don't we will have to make hard consequences for you."

Tsuzuki lowered his head and said nothing.

"Hahaha! Your a fool! Your reignas strongest shinigami will fall! I'm glad that we can find someone new with an actual brain!" Mocked Raidon.

"Please Tsuzuki, where could you have gone to force you to hold your tongue?" Pleaded Zerla. Her flowing white hair formed curls as she tried to stay calm for the sake of Tsuzuki. She once loved him very much but as years pasted she realized that she couldn't fill his heart so she left.

"Will you answer Tsuzuki-Kun?" She asked again but he wasn't able to speak because Tensei interrupted.

"Fine if you cant speak the truth than you shall not speak at all." He said calmly but it dripped of false hatred.

"Are you making decisions for me again? Ha-ha your always the one to rush to grow up now aren't you?" A light and warm laugh filled the room.

"I see you haven't changed, Yasuo." Tsuzuki smiled.

"It was you who has been the talk of the town I see. Now tell me what have you been up to? Not too much I hope! Hahaha!" Yasuo was a gruff lovable character with a Santa look to him. He was fat and wore a golden kimono. Zerla whispered in his ear and a sudden frown came to his jolly face. "So you died and came back? I see. Well Tsuzuki I'm very disappointed in you. The strongest shinigami here and you just became reckless."

"Do you really want the truth?"

"OFCOURSE! YOU MORON!" Raidon became annoyed fast by Tsuzuki and Yasuo's relationship and Tsuzuki's foolish acts.

"I..."

"You what Tsuzuki?" Tensei's voice was calm and respectable.

"I went to eternity... a friend of mine... he created it all over again." Tsuzuki lowered his head and wondered if he said too much. The room fell silent for a moment.

"What do you mean it was 'created all over again'? Tsuzuki no one was suppose to know about eternity. Why would someone want to do it over?" Yasuo's voice was very serious this time. Much different from before.

"The one he made... it was flawless. I didn't know about the time lapse. I really didn't."

"Even if you didn't know... Tsuzuki your going to have to tell who made it."

"I cant."

"And why not! If you just say who did it then we can get this over with!" Raidon's temper wasn't going down anytime soon.

"Please Tsuzuki, if you don't have proof that its not your fault then we're... we're..."

"We will banished to the far parts of hell!" Raidon laughed in success. ((a/n: thats way harsh... oh well))

"You cant do that just because of this!" Tsuzuki argued with the gods, not very wise but he did it anyway.

"QUEIT!" Yasuo's voice roared and echoed in the room. Everyone fell silent once more.

"... "

"..."

"..."

"Clearly you've made up your mind. The one called Oriya will be taking your position when he dies in a couples of days. His power is strong... Do you really want this?" Yasuo tried to do the beat he could. Knowing that is was Tsuzuki he didn't push any further.

"HA, Oriya will make a fine shinigami! Tsuzuki you were a fool in life and a fool in death! And now your going to burn for the rest of your non-dead life! Just like the way you died in the first place!" Raidon's thunder raged all over the room.

"Thats enough Raidon! Your voice is no longer needed." Tensei shouted back. He took in a deep sigh before looking back to Tsuzuki who had his head so low that you couldn't see his beautiful violet eyes. "Tsuzuki?" Tensei looked down at Tsuzuki with eyes filled with hurt. He too loved Tsuzuki and couldn't figure out what had happened to him to cause this.

"Please do the right thing, do the good thing and just say where who did it. Thats all you have to do. Thats all you have to be." Zerla pleaded. Usually Tsuzukiwould get up and do his best to make sure he did what he was meant to do but all truth came rushing to him at that point. He started to laugh.

"Tsuzuki?" Yasuo said.

"Yes lord Yasuo?" He raised his head and they all saw shining violet eyes filled with tears but he had a smile on his face. "You know... he never asked me to be someone or something I never wanted to be." His laughing became loader. "He never once said be good or be bad. All his did was love me. And his love intoxicated and and destroyed everything I loved and cared for.And in the end I guess thats what Ive always wanted... for everything to just disappear."

"Look at this mad man! This is what your person your dearly trying to help and save! This mad manof the great twelve spirits!" Raidon pointed at the laughing Tsuzuki.

"So... Do we go with procedures?" Zerla turned to Tensei who turned to Yasuo who just nodded. Raidon laughed with his success. Zerla took in a deep sigh and closed her eyes for a moment before she spoke.

"Tsuzuki of the twelve guardian spirits your accused of false death, suspicion of crime and return with out reason. How do you plea?"

"Guilty." He said with a smile.

TSUZUKI'S POV

So here it is. Everything would end like this. I broke my promise and I'll never say what I truly felt for Muraki. Was it meant to end this way? Was I meant to die for love and not for the life of someone else?

I remained smiling because I knew that even if I couldn't fix everything like I had planed to I saw the truth so clear. I cant fix everything. I tried that with the fire I started and that killed me. I tried that when I promised to protect Hisoka and I promised him to come back. But I'm going to die anyway. Why did I bother? Why did I try so hard? I'm going to die...
