Chapter Thirteen: Falling
"I-Is this true?" Rei looked over at his leader, his golden eyes pleading. "Please, tell me he's lying."
But it wasn't like any fairy tale where Yasashiku would end up being a lying villain and Kai would defeat him. No, the silence that was the phoenix's answered didn't help the tiger take in any of this new knowledge.
"Why...?" He whispered the question on everyone's mind, as they all felt the same curiosity and need to somehow give some meaning over Kai's killing than just some lust for murder. No, it couldn't be that.
"Kai..." The wolf gently tucked his hand in the other's, wanting an answer as much as the neko-jin. "Please, tell us."
There was no more competition for the moment. The only thing that mattered was an explanation.
"Yes, tell them how you were being a good little puppy and doing exactly what Voltaire wanted you to do. Go on and tell them." Yasashiku yelled, his icy eyes burning with hatred and pleasure. Kai was finally getting what he deserved most, the pain of hurting others, the pain of rejection and most of all the pain of being alone.
His smirk contorted his face, as the disbelief rang through both sets of eyes, one turning to disgust while one turned to betrayal.
"God no..." Golden eyes began their plead, deep down knowing it was hopeless. "It's not true, right? It can't be!!! You always said you never would do a damn thing he told you to!!!!"
His fists clenched together tighter, a trail of blood forming, but the pain blurred in with the pain that was pounding in his chest, the memories pouring back into his mind that was so strongly blocked off, and now this. He couldn't handle it, he wasn't trained to. He was trained to never feel, but that only led to failure, and then more pain.
"Kai... is it true?" Tala's eyes soften slightly, but demanded forcefully. He couldn't believe it unless it was said from the phoenix. He wouldn't accept anyone else's words.
Silence slowly filled into the corners and to the darkest corners of the room, until it reached out to the occupants, surrounding them as the tension only continued to rise.
"Kai, is that why you killed him?" Tala asked again, not relenting his efforts for an answer. This time, he would be satisfied with one.
"Yes." Was all Kai replied with, his scarlet eyes unfocused and glazed over in a mask of a storm that seemed much too calm for what it was.
"And get this, Seiichi was Kai's best friend. And if you would like to further describe their bond, they were lovers." The taller blonde smirked, as Kai's world was beginning to head straight into the eye of the storm.
Tala stood still, his mind stunned at the new information. 'Best friend? Lover even?' And then he felt betrayed. Kai never mentioned a single word about Seiichi to him. And to find out that Kai had killed his own lover just to please Voltaire and Boris sickened him further.
"Why?! Why the hell would you go and do something like that?!" Rei yelled, his eyes narrowing down at the person he thought he could trust. 'Who the hell knows who Kai would kill next?! If he would kill his own lover, why would he even hesitate to kill any of his teammates?!'
***
The blue eyes glazed over with confusion, their hollow state slowly dissipating, as they turned to the locked door, a crying dragon on the other side. Tyson... loved him? This only spread throughout a chain of thoughts that confused him and set him into denial.
'No, I'm only hallucinating... Tyson would never love someone as weak as me. I'm a guy. He'd be disgusted with me. No, I'm only hurting myself.' Max convinced himself, his mind set on the idea of what he believed was impossible was just that.
A pale hand reached out to him, his smile reassuring him to trust. "Don't worry. I'll take away the pain."
"You will?" Max asked, his own pale hand reaching out, inches from touching the other.
"Hai. You won't have to hide or hurt. I can take you to a world with no pain. Only smiles." And the other continued to do just that. He smiled, his eyes shimmering softly against the light of the blue moon, his midnight hair blowing as the window seemed to be open.
"A world with... no pain?" Wasn't that what he was looking for? He knew he was only escaping, but being as weak as he was, he would do this, right?
"Do this for the one by the door. Save him from your sins." His lips seemed to darken, the scarlet hue matching the color of blood that was slowly dripping from his body, the source unknown.
But the other could not see. The blonde was in a world of dreams, one away from reality and just before fantasy. Where devils were the saviors and angels were the ones he left behind.
***
He couldn't look at the others. He knew this was going to happen, which is the reason he kept it away. Turning his back to the others, he finally admit a defeat. His pride was smothered with their betrayal and disgust. He didn't blame them. He was a murderer, after all. And his hands to his eyes were always red.
Neither Rei or Tala said a word. Only watched the back of their once trusted friend, only seeing a murderer. They were seeing the devil walk away from their lives to leave them in peace.
"Running away like always, I see. You were always a coward, Hiwatari. But you deserve this after all you did!!!" The blonde yelled feeling completely satisfied with the way everything turned out. Kai deserved this. He stole and then killed Seiichi, _his_ love.
Scarlet eyes turned slowly back, glazing over with a foreign emotion for the phoenix. "I know I deserve it." And he could only agree. He knew his sin, his crime, and he deserved everything the gods threw at him, shredding him down to nothing but the naked, vulnerable child he was. The Kai he was born as, not the one that was created.
And the door closed behind him, no one to chase after him. Then the rain came.
"It was raining that day..." Those words escaped his lips, as his hand rested gently on the pale one before him, falling into the welcoming arms, hearing the promise of a world without pain. And accepting it.
It's not hard to fall.
"I'll protect you. We will be happy." The black eyes, hollow with the soft caring voice echoing throughout them, glistening with the blue moon, as a rain of feathers fell.
