Venus
ssp47's Corner Hello and welcome to Venus. This is my first Mars fic, based on idea I got while reading the manga. If you feel so inclined, please leave a note whether you liked it or not. It helps my writing get better. Thanks and enjoy! BTW the first part of this story was directly quoted from Mars Vol. 9 if anyone will wonder.
Disclaimer: No, I do not own Mars.
-Chapter One- "Broken"
"What?! So you can just walk away so easily...?" Harumi exclaimed. She couldn't take this, what was going on. How could Rei act this way, when he and Kira had been through so much? How could it all come down to this?! Rei took a hard stare and arched his brows. His words were like venom, only it was aimed at everyone.
"This isn't about what's in your head. It's about what's in your heart." He paused, a calm breeze flying through his blonde locks of gold. He slumped onto a bench and sighed. "Basically, I'm over it."
Harumi stared in silence. What had been said and what needed to be said couldn't be communicated. This felt so wrong. She glanced at Tatsuya and her eyes widened in horror.
"Kira!" Harumi watched the young girl walk towards the group, her eyes full of apprehension. No, this is wrong. Harumi told herself. You're so stuffed with your pride to see it. Kira stilled as Rei stood back up from the school bench. He stuffed his hands in his pockets and walked off. Kira turned to watch him go.
"Kira? What are you doing? Run after him! It'll really be over if you let him go like this." Harumi coaxed. "Are you ok with that?" Why wasn't she moving?
"No. It's no use. He'll never forgive me." Kira's face began to grow red and her eyes were moist. Her feet wouldn't move. "It's my fault. I'm the one who hurt Rei. Of course he's going to hate me and be pissed." She clenched her fists and refused to move. Harumi's eyes flashed in anger.
"What are you being such a wimp for?! You keep blaming yourself for everything. If you really love him, why don't you go for it like you mean it? Who cares how pathetic you look? If that's going to keep you from losing Rei, run after him and cry and do everything you can! You can still give up later if you want."
Kira shook her head and stared at the ground. It doesn't work like that. He wouldn't listen to me anyway. He won't ever forgive me.
Everything dies. Kira told herself. Her bag, slung over her back, began to slip from its place on her shoulder. She didn't know where she was headed and she didn't care. The summer break had come with black clouds. I should've known, I should've told myself that it wouldn't work. Once you hurt someone that's all you'll ever do with your life. You'll break people until you're consumed in their pain. That's why he came back. He couldn't take the pain anymore. Now he's going to try and force my mother to take it from him. His instincts won't leave. He'll try to hurt us no matter what he says. I don't care. So what if I'm hurt? I'm already broken. No matter what he does, I can't shatter anymore.
Tears began to fall from her eyes. Life is full of too much pain, pain like this. Her knees began to tremble. Her hand, weak and tired, felt along the wall of an alley. Kira couldn't remember when she took the turn. An aching feeling in her stomach told her that she was lost. It didn't matter though. She didn't care where she was. Her future with Rei was over. Her knees gave way and Kira knelt beside a garbage can. She should've known it was too good to last.
Kira buried her face in her hands and wept. She wept over her lost love with Rei, her father, her mother. She only agreed to her mother's wishes because she thought Rei would stand beside her. She could do anything with him at her side. How she hated herself now. Kira, once strong and sturdy beside Rei, had crumbled into pieces. She closed her eyes and breathed in steadily. She was exhausted from the trauma. Slowly she drifted off. Time went by steadily, more quickly than usual.
When Kira awakened, the sight was blurry from the water in her eyes. They still stung from her tears. Kira felt herself coax her to drift off again. Suddenly she heard voices. Her despair had numbed her senses. She quickly looked over her shoulder and saw three tall, built men standing three feet from her.
"Hey sweetheart, why the tears?" The tallest one asked. Kira felt fear dive into her. She was in an unstable emotional state. I don't know if I have the strength to fight them. Kira thought worriedly.
"We can make you feel better. Come with us." One man stretched his hand to reach hers but Kira pushed herself away, knocking over the garbage can.
"Hey now, we don't want any trouble. Don't make any noise and we won't hurt you." One of them grabbed her by the arm and forced her down. She struggled to find her voice to warn someone, anyone. I can't scream and there're three of them! Kira thought in fear. Her shoulders hit the pavement and all of them knelt down.
"Please God..." Her voice faded in a whisper and the men didn't appear to have heard anything. Please...don't let this happen to me...Tears again dripped from her eyes. She could feel their hands, greedily searching for pleasure. This was wrong. Why was this happening? Someone save me, anyone, please...
Thunder cracked in the night sky and almost as if a god had tossed them away, the three men were thrown feet away from her body. Kira sat up and stared at the figure in front of her.
"You three looking for pleasure? Why don't you try me out?" It was a very calm seductive voice, feminine and full of power. Then Kira's ears suddenly went black. She, heard nothing, only saw the power of the figure as she fought of the three men until they were piled on top of each other. Each of them glared at her and spat angry words but nothing came into Kira's ears. Finally something black and deadly emerged from the figure's hand. The three men trembled and took off into the darkness. Kira felt the sounds of earth reach her ears again. It was raining, a hard rain. Her rescuer was walking off also. Kira stumbled to her feet. She had to see the figure's face.
"Wait!" Kira cried. "Don't go!" The stranger paused and turned around. Lightning flashed her features into the night sky. She was in fact a woman, at least 5'10'' in height. She was incredibility thin with a modest bust line, tanned skin, long straight brown hair, pulled in a pony tail. Kira stared at her face deeply. She had dark piercing eyes and full lips. She was beautiful, absolutely beautiful. Kira could feel her soul touch her. This woman is strong; Kira could feel it, full of deep colors of power. Not even in Rei had Kira ever felt someone so powerful.
Kira opened her mouth to speak but exhaustion overtook her and she collapsed on the pavement.
The dream awoke Kira from her sleep. She sat up in bed, clutching the sheets close to her. Rei, who was drying his hair in the middle of the room, suddenly paused to look at her stunned face.
"You alright?" He asked. Kira nodded and lay back down. That woman, that night, it all had happened a month ago, right before she and Rei got back together. How could she have forgotten? But most importantly, why did she remember it now? Rei came over and leaned on the bed beside her.
"Watcha thinking about?" He asked clumsily. Kira chuckled.
"It's nothing important. I just remembered the feeling I felt when I first wanted to paint you." Suddenly an idea hit her. Kira thought of the woman and her painting of Rei. How they both made her feel, how she felt their power. Their colors seemed to form together in her head. She saw the red of Mars and then the power of the feminine stranger come together. Mars and Venus!
