Part 2

Streets were full of people walking somewhere. Kazahaya didn't have any idea where to go; he was still shocked from the bloody images in his mind. All the blood; dripping from the walls, soaking the rug… A monster would do that. Yet it was strange, the smaller boy was sure it wasn't Rikuo who did it. He even considered going back and trying to explain it, but he knew that Rikuo was too mad. So Kazahaya decided to go somewhere for a couple of days and return later. Kazahaya was pretty sure that Rikuo can't seriously believe that he was capable of doing something as horrible as that.

Kazahaya realized that Rikuo probably needs some time off to calm down but he still felt almost as bad as when he had left Kei and their sanctuary.


'What's wrong?' asked Saiga when he arrived to the drugstore and saw Kakei in dark mood.

'Kazahaya left, because he saw Rikuo's dreams and they had a fight and I didn't see it coming!' snapped Kakei and rubbed his forehead aggregately.

'Right,' commented the other man calmly and plopped his giant-like body down by his slender friend.

Kakei looked at Saiga heatedly. 'Do you have any idea what this all means?'

Saiga shrugged and didn't give any comment.

'We lost the forth element!'

'Well, it's not like you have ever had all four of them,' calmly remarked Saiga.

'Kazahaya had come to us before and he will return without a doubt. We have to keep an eye on Rikuo – he's the one on the wild side if you ask me…'

Kakei was quiet, wrapped in his thoughts. His pretty face was marred with lines that worry put there.

'There's more of bad news - they're blocking me, both of them! I cannot see future of any of them. I'm getting vexed!' exhaled Kakei. Saiga put his hand on the back of Kakei's neck and started massaging.

'You should know that they are deciding what to do and when, you cannot force them to fit nicely in your little plan. Ever heard of the free will, have you?'

Kakei closed his eyes and leaned into the caress.

'Free will is overrated,' he retorted.

''Don't worry too much, love. He's not almighty, you know, and neither are you. He was wrong and we might be wrong too. Kazahaya is wind, no doubt. But I'm not sure if Rikuo is water or fire, I really don't know. He feels like water but I'm not sure… if he got anything from his father than he is fire, devastating and merciless fire…'

'He has abilities of power, you know that right?' asked Kakei who seemed a bit more relaxed.

'Yes and the boy can feel thoughts,' added Saiga. 'You tested both of them thoroughly.'

'Well, that was the whole purpose of this stupid drugstore! The tasks were just the tests to see what they are capable off and how they interact…'
