Summary- Voltaire is the Devil. Hitoshi and Kai are his grandsons. Voltaire has to retire and is handing over Hell to Hitoshi. The catch is, Hitoshi has to find a mate so he can have other heirs when he has to retire. He meets Shahero, a normal twenty-one year old girl with a sharp tongue and a fiery temper. Hitoshi goes to Earth in human form to try to find a mate and he has his eyes set on Shahero, the only girl who wouldn't fall for him. He is determined to make her his.
Chapter 4- Fall Back DownThe trees, houses, people, cars, trucks, buses, everything was a blur. Shahero ran blindly for hours, not really knowing nor caring where she was going. She didn't know why she was running. Why was she running? She stopped, her chest heaving as she panted for breath. She couldn't blame her friends for not believing her. She wasn't even sure if she believed it herself. Why did she run? So many questions. Hopefully one of them had an answer. She sighed and stared at the sky. The small wind caressed her face and caused her hair to dance around her face.
Suddenly, there was a sharp pain in her ankle and she was thrown off her feet. Air whooshed out from her lungs as a heavy weight landed on her. She peeled open her tightly closed eyes to stare up into familiar cornflower blue eyes that reminded her of the sky on a beautiful summer day. Brent. She scowled and tried to push him off of her but he was almost twice her size and didn't seem to be making a move to get off.
"Get off." She spat out from in between clenched teeth. Brent slowly rolled off of her but stayed on the ground, his hands folded behind his head as he ran his eyes over her, his gaze lingering on her chest as it usually did. "Hey!" She barked. "My face is up here." She pointed a finger at her face. His gaze slowly moved up to lock with her eyes.
"I know."
She growled. After a while his eyes were still moving over her and she started to shift uncomfortably.
"Can you stop that!" She finally snapped.
"Maybe." He replied simply, that ever so annoying smirk growing at the knowledge he made her uncomfortable. Suddenly remembering what he had set out to do he got to his feet and walked over to her. "Who is that new blue haired ass you're getting mighty comfortable with?" He hissed, eyes narrowing as he stared down his nose at her. She huffed and crossed her arms over her chest.
"What's it to you?" She asked haughtily. Brent growled, eyes flashing. His hand unconsciously wrapped around her waist and drew her closer.
"Cause you're mine." He growled against her lips. Shahero stiffened when she was drawn towards him.
"No I'm not." She ground out. "You screwed up Brent, big time. You can't go back in time…"
"But I wish I could." He interrupted. Shahero glared at him.
"I don't care." She hissed coldly. "I'm not yours now, and I never will be again." Brent let his arms fall to his sides and took a step back. A knowing smirk spread out on his face.
"Sweetie, your eyes are like books." He saw the sadness and longing in her eyes. But he could also see the hate and anger battling against it. He leaned forward again. "I know you miss me just as much as I miss you." He whispered in her ear and wrapped his arms around her shoulders in an embrace, his chin resting on her head.
Shahero felt torn. Part of her wanted to lean in to his embrace while the other part wanted her to push him away. Brent wanted her to relax in his hold so he started to draw little circles on her back. She instantly relaxed, her breathing becoming steadier and her eyelids drooping. Brent smirked. It was all going great. Soon he would have her back again. But his plans were ruined when Shahero was brought back to reality by the honk of a car horn. She tensed again and pushed him away. Her eyes flashed and she growled a warning when he took a step towards her.
"You!"
Shahero slid her gaze to Amber. She grinned. Amber was pointing an accusing finger at Brent, her ochre eyes darkening with rage.
"What did you do to Shahero? I get to give you one ass whopping for each thing you did and said to her."
"Says who?" Brent retorted.
"Says me." Amber answered matter-of-factly.
"And me. I get half of those privileges considering it was me that the horrible things were done to."
"Nah, I don't like to share." Amber cracked her knuckles and smirked.
"Well too bad you're gonna or I'm kicking your ass all the way to China."
"Why China?"
"Cause it's supposed to be on the other side of the world."
"Says who?"
"Are you echoing Brent?"
"Hell no. You're avoiding my question."
"Why? The answer is obvious."
"Well I don't know it so it can't be that obvious."
"You always were dense." Brent added his two cents in, breaking up the two girls arguing and becoming the receiving end of the girls' glares.
"Alright that's it. You hold him down, I beat him to a bloody pulp." Shahero crossed her arms over her chest stubbornly and opened her mouth to say something but Amber corrected herself. "Half of him." Shahero smirked.
"Deal." Shahero saw Brent eye his skateboard, which was conveniently not too far from her right foot. She quickly flipped it and placed her foot on it, her smirk widening.
"What's wrong Brenty-poo? Afraid of lil ol' me?" She taunted. Brent was clever to keep his mouth shut.
"Doesn't matter what you say now, you Mars inhabitant. We still get to kick your ass."
"Three…Two…One." Shahero muttered lowly so only Amber could hear. Both girls gave a war cry before abandoning the skateboard and tackling Brent, or Amber had while Shahero had landed on the ground and swung her foot out to trip him since Amber hadn't knocked him down. Shahero hurried to her place at his shoulders while Amber straddled his waist and was pulling her fist back to throw a punch.
"And hurry up I wanna have my turn soon." Shahero grunted with effort as Brent struggled in her grip and it used all of her strength to keep him down. It wasn't doing much though since his shoulders and upper half were lifting off the ground. Amber's fist slammed into his eye. Brent cried in pain and tried to move his hands to cover his eye but couldn't with Shahero's hands weighing on his shoulders.
The two girls switched quickly but Shahero was the one that ended up on the unfortunate side. As soon as Shahero had let him go Brent's hands flew to his eyes and when he felt the weight on his stomach shift he knew now was the chance. Amber hadn't been able to hold him down properly yet and he easily sat up and threw Shahero over his shoulder leaving Amber sitting on her butt on the ground. Amber scrambled to her feet and kicked Brent in the shin like she had learned from Russia. Shahero was dropped but she quickly got to her feet.
"Run! The alien from Mars is going to crush our bones to make his bread!" Amber screamed as she sprinted.
"Ams that would be ogres." Shahero forced herself to run, ignoring the throbbing in her ankle.
"Same diff. I could still picture him with a big belly and green skin."
"Using his ear wax for candles and making rat stew."
"Burps that could kill people."
"Farts too." The pair tried to stifle their snickers but were failing miserably.
"Where do we get this from?" Amber asked.
"Shrek. I like Shrek. Oh wait! I just remembered something. The thing that crushes our bones to make their bread would be giants." Amber sneaked a glance over her shoulder and yelped.
"He could pass as a giant. And he's coming our way, and fast!" Shahero glanced over her shoulder too and hit her forehead.
"Shitter faces!" She hissed.
"Why didn't you abduct his skateboard?!"
"Hey I was running after you. You left me!"
"He could be eating our dust right now if we had the skateboard."
"Alright! I get it! Fucking hell!" She screeched as something hit her ankle hard, almost like the first time Brent ran into her only this time harder. Shahero fell on her face, her ankle a searing pain. Amber was at her side in seconds.
"Fuck! Hero, you alright?" Shahero mumbled some curses into the ground and gagged when she could taste the cement. She pushed herself up but collapsed again. Brent caught her before she hit the ground. His eyes showed his concern but she pushed away from him and hopped over to Amber. Amber lifted one of her arms across her shoulders and let Shahero lean on her.
"You are one little prickly bastard." Amber spat as she tried to turn and lead Shahero away. Brent was still in shock and just watched them with his mouth hanging open. He shook his head.
"Sorry!" He shouted after them, before shaking his head sadly and slowly skating away.
The two girls were silent except for the occasional "ow" coming from Shahero's mouth.
"So who says China is on the other side of the world?" Amber broke the silence.
"The atlas." Shahero replied simply.
"Oh."
oOoOo
After Amber had helped Shahero get to the nurse, much to Shahero's dismay, Amber had taken a small walk around the college. Amber smirked as she replayed the exchange that had happened that afternoon in her mind. At least she got a punch in. He's going to get a nice black shiner.
Suddenly a hand clamped over her mouth, muffling her screams and she was dragged into the janitor's closet. Her fists beat into the hard chest of her captor and her flailing limbs hit the wall with a loud banging sound as the door was closed and locked, enveloping them in darkness. It took a while for Amber to adjust to the darkness but when she did she easily found the door and tried to kick at it but a hand quickly pushed them down. She could hear her captor's breath on her neck and it made the flesh tingle.
"Don't scream. It's only me." His voice whispered in her ear. She knew that voice. It was Kai. She growled.
"All da mo eason ta sceam den." Amber's voice was muffled and was hard to understand. Kai removed the hand hesitantly.
"What?"
"I said, all the more reason to scream then." She snapped. Kai spun her around to face him and pressed her back against the wall. His hands gripped her upper arms tightly as he pushed her against the wall hard with his body making her wince.
"What did your friend say about my brother?" He growled darkly. Amber glared at him.
"Why don't you go ask her?"
"Cause I'm asking you."
"So I heard."
"Good, then answer."
"I don't wanna." She retorted childishly.
"Well you're gonna."
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah."
"And who's going to make me?"
"Me."
"Oh yeah?"
Kai growled huskily before his lips came crashing down her hers. Amber melted in his arms and slowly slid her hands up his chest to wrap around his shoulders to deepen the kiss. Kai's arms wound around her waist, drawing her closer but still wanting her to be closer. Amber moaned against his lips and he used that opportunity to slide his tongue into her mouth. Amber's head tilted upwards to allow him better access. His hand slid up her stomach to rest on her breast, giving it a small squeeze. Amber gasped. Kai's tongue trailed across her jaw line as it moved lower to suck on her neck.
Amber moaned and her knees buckled beneath her. Kai easily lifted her and helped her wrap her legs around his waist, pressing her back against the wall. Kai's hand moved from her breast and slid to the small of her back.
Amber's mind screamed for her to push him away while her heart told her to stay. Finally with one last lingering kiss, Kai pulled away. Amber almost cried out in protest.
"Yeah." He whispered against her lips and pulled away. "Now tell me what she said." Amber moaned and slowly nodded as his hand massaged her breast through the thin material of her bra. Her face scrunched up as she tried to remember what Shahero had told them.
"She said he was glowing, and red, and really scary." She said in between moans and gasps. Kai smirked.
"Good girl." He whispered in his ear before his tongue darted out to suck on her ear lobe. Then he stepped away from her, making her fall on her behind.
"Hey!" She cried. Kai opened the door and motioned with his hand for her to go. Amber huffed and stood, storming through the door. She yelped when Kai's hand slapped her ass before he turned and walked the opposite way.
"Your such an ass!"
"I know don't ya love it?" Kai's laughter echoed down the hall to her ears. She screamed in frustration and stomped back to her dorm.
oOoOo
"Fuck!" Another glass object hit the wall and shattered to a million pieces with a loud 'crash'. Hitoshi was fuming. His black horns had exposed themselves on top of his head, his teeth grew sharper, his skin was glowing an even more vibrant red as were his eyes and his tail had grown, swinging agitatedly.
How could he have been so stupid? She had seen him in his demonic form. He had lost all control of his actions, as if someone or something took control of his body. It had felt like he was just seeing her, watching her while someone else spoke and acted. Could what Grandfather had said a long time ago be true? Could there really be a real demon in him that takes over his actions? It sounded like InuYasha, where his demonic side would devour his very soul. But this was different. He needed to ask Grandfather about it.
Hitoshi drew in a deep breath. Why did this have to happen now when he had to choose a mate? And did that side have to show up for the one that I want badly? He tried to calm himself down.
Finally, when he was almost fully in human form again with the exception of a faint red aura surrounding him and red flashing in his eyes every so often, he walked out of the room and to his Grandfather's thrown room. Halfway there Kai had pushed him into the wall, eyes darkened with rage.
"What the fuck?" Hitoshi stared darkly at Kai.
"You just had to go and screw it up, didn't you?" Kai hissed.
"Screw what up? I screwed up nothing for you. You still have your chance at your bitch so fuck off." Kai growled and let go of Hitoshi.
"Well guess what? I happen to be related to your sorry ass so gee I wonder what they would think. If you're a monster and I'm your brother, what does that make me?" Kai snapped. Hitoshi smirked but knew the seriousness of the situation.
"Look, I don't know what the hell happened back there. It was like someone else took control of me and all I could do was watch what had happened." Kai gave Hitoshi a weird glance.
"Do you think…"
"That's what I'm going to talk to grandfather about." Kai nodded. They walked in silence.
"Oh and some guy named Brooklyn called." Kai broke the silence. Hitoshi gave Kai a questioning glance. "I found your cell in the stadium. You must've dropped it when you were having a little…fun with that black haired chick." Hitoshi nodded.
"I'll call him later." He pushed open the doors to the thrown room and sauntered in, closely followed by Kai, as usual.
"Grandfather!" Hitoshi called. Voltaire looked up.
"Ah, Hitoshi. You come with good news I hope." Hitoshi's face was sombre.
"No. Grandfather was what you said to us when we were younger about the true demon in us taking over your body if we are not strong enough to control it true?" Hitoshi got to the point and spoke quickly. Voltaire rose a grey eyebrow.
"It could be…" He said slowly. "Why?"
"I think it happened to me today." Voltaire frowned.
"Boy, you need to find a mate as fast as you can." Voltaire said sternly.
"Why?"
"She can help you control it."
"How?" Hitoshi was confused. The one that he wanted for a mate was the one that brought the demon out of him, how could she control it too?
"I don't know. I just know she can." Hitoshi decided that was all his Grandfather knew about it so left it at that.
"Thanks." He muttered and turned to walk away.
"Oh and Hitoshi!" Hitoshi glanced over his shoulder. "Be careful."
oOoOo
Shahero leaned over the bed to look at the door when it opened and Russia walked in quickly. Shahero grinned.
"Rushy!" She called. Russia looked up briefly and Shahero caught sight of the blush that tinted her porcelain skin. Shahero's mouth turned up into a knowing smirk. "Finally. I thought he'd never kiss ya. How far did you two get?" Russia's blush deepened.
"Wha are ya talkin bout?" She put on her best fake innocence face. Shahero's head tilted to the side and she stared hard at Russia with raised eyebrows.
"You know what I'm talkin about."
"Nope. Sorry I don't."
"Oh yes you do."
"Nu-uh."
"Yes you do!" Russia shook her head. "Damn your stubborn." Russia grunted and gave Shahero a pointed look.
"Oh an' I got detention so hurry up an' get in trouble." And with that Russia turned her back to Shahero and disappeared behind the bathroom door.
"Fine. And don't think I don't know what that blush was Russia Kennedy! I know that it had something to do with a certain black haired dude with blue eyes and is known by the all too popular name 'Sex On Legs'." She heard Russia growl behind the door and chuckled. Her work here was done. Now all she had to do was tell the rest and get her to tell all. But she would worry about that later. Now she had to worry about getting into trouble. She couldn't let Russia be in trouble without her. It was unthinkable.
So now to think of the perfect plan…oh and of course she had to pull Amber in as well. And Miaymi of course is pulled in by default. Shahero sort of felt sorry for the silver haired girl. It wouldn't matter if she didn't do anything wrong, she would just get pulled in anyway. But that wasn't her fault. It was Amber who pulled her in. But I guess we couldn't separate the inseparable duo. It was almost like her and Russia. She sent a glare to the bathroom door, wishing it could penetrate it so Russia could feel it. But her other half wouldn't tell her what had happened. Some best friend she was.
Which reminded her. Johnny was supposed to help her fix her motorcycle. It got busted on her last race. Stupid tree came out of nowhere. Shahero smirked. And she just thought of the perfect way to get into detention. She cackled evilly and carefully climbed down the ladder, wincing when her foot touched the ground. She wouldn't be doing much walking. Oh well. She'll just get Johnny to carry her. Her smirk widened and she limped out of the dorm. And she better get to him fast, her ankle was really sore.
oOoOo
"Miss. Kaeto, pouring oil on people is an irresponsible and immature thing to do. I'm afraid I'm forced to give you detention." Shahero smirked. Mr. Dickenson was about to give a huge lecture of the rules so she intelligently wore a hat. Pulling it lower on her forehead she was able to hide her eyes from sight and therefore, could sleep easily. Her smirk widened as she replayed her master prank in her head. She had run into a very pissed off Arista on the way to find Johnny so she had joined in with the prank too.
Unfortunately, she had been able to escape detention since she wasn't seen spraying oil on kids. Johnny had managed to escape too, with the excuse that he was trying to hold Shahero back instead of carrying her around and help her. Shahero growled. Oh well. She couldn't really blame them. She had just made sure she got caught so she could catch up with Russia in detention. And she might even be able to get all the dirty details out of her. Oh, another thought. Did she really want to know all the dirty details? She shuddered. Probably not.
And she hadn't seen Amber so unfortunately, couldn't pull the Irish woman in. Looks like it was only going to be the Double Trouble Team. Shahero snickered. Her and Russia had made up the name a while ago. She was kind of bummed by the thought that Amber wouldn't be joining the two of them in detention. Amber and her had a strong double team act between themselves as well, not as big as Miyami and Amber's or Shahero and Russia's but still pretty big.
Shahero was startled by the hand that fell on her shoulder and looked up at Mr. Dickenson.
"I don't know why your fascination in getting in trouble is so big." He tsked in disapproval.
"I don't have a fascination in getting in trouble, I have a fascination in having fun."
"So getting into trouble is your idea of fun?" Mr. Dickenson raised a graying eyebrow.
"Nope."
"Then what do you call fun Miss. Kaeto?" Mr. Dickenson moved to sit down behind his desk.
"In this case, spraying people with oil." Shahero smirked. Mr. Dickenson gave a resigning sigh and quickly shooed her out the door.
"To detention with you." He chuckled heartily at her as she saluted him and walked away.
"Aye aye cap'n."
oOoOo
Russia burst into laughter as Shahero told her what she had done to get into detention.
"Ya sprayed people wit oil!?" Tears of mirth were now flowing down her cheeks and she clutched her stomach. Shahero snickered.
"Oh the joy and horror of oil."
"Wha joy? I see no joy in oil."
"Well on my side there's joy, on their side its horror."
"How many blonde bimbos did ya spray?" Shahero smirked.
"Too many to count." Russia laughed harder, if it was possible. "Good luck to them." Shahero muttered.
"Why?"
"Do you know how hard it is to get oil out of your hair?"
"No. Do you?"
"No, but John-John said it was hard. Now he would know."
"Did he get sprayed wit it?" Now it was Shahero's turn to laugh.
"Oh yeah! All over his face! I think I should call him Oily." Russia stared at Shahero with raised eyebrows.
"Oily? Wha kinda name is Oily?"
"Exactly." Russia snickered. Shahero leaned back in her chair, lifting the front feet off the ground and sending Russia a 'don't-you-even-think-about-it' look. Russia gave her the same innocent face from this afternoon. Which reminds her…
"Hey Rush, you still haven't told me what happened between you and Forest." At the mention of her black haired 'friend' Russia blushed.
"Nuthin."
"Uh-huh, and pigs can fly."
"Dey can!?" Russia exclaimed with fake enthusiasm.
"Oh yeah, you never knew?" Russia shook her head and tried to smother her laughter.
"Well it's a proven fact that pigs have so much fat because when they get older, their fat turns into wings."
"Really? Den I hafta remember to tell Hans he can grow wings." Shahero snickered.
"Aw. Leave Dopey alone." Russia laughed.
"Dopey. Dat's a good one." Shahero grinned. The sudden loud snoring that echoed through the almost empty classroom startled the pair. Two pairs of eyes snapped to the front of the room and similar smirks formed on their faces. The teacher was asleep. God knows how he could be sleeping with the two of them laughing their butts off.
Russia quietly stood up and tiptoes to the exit door that was conveniently located near the back of the room. Shahero was less quiet about making her exit and stumbled over some of the desks. Both girls snickered even through Russia's glare.
"Cummon." She mouthed, pushing the door open and slipping out. She held it open for Shahero who bounded out. She broke into a run as soon as her feet touched the ground and was closely followed by Russia.
They both clambered into their dorm room, panting for breath and laughing. The room's current six occupants looked up briefly.
"Hey guys!" Shahero called out loudly before climbing onto her bed and searching through her CD's. She was greeted by half hearted 'heys'. "Gee I feel appreciated." She muttered.
"So how was detention?" Amber asked with a smirk. Shahero didn't answer right away. Instead she found her Rancid CD and was concentrating on putting it in her stereo and grinned as she heard the first few chords of Fall Back Down.
Don't worry about me I'm gonna make it alright
Got my enemies cross haired and in my sight
I take a bad situation gonna make it right
In the shadows of darkness I stand in the light
Shahero turned around and to face an annoyed Amber and smirked.
"Sorry."
"You better be." Amber snapped. Shahero pouted.
"Hey! It's hard work putting on a CD, right Hero?" Miaymi teased. Shahero laughed and sent a light glare in Miaymi's direction.
"Well if you're gonna be like that then maybe I should turn off the music." Shahero threatened, knowing that Rancid was one of Miaymi's favourite bands. Miyami's eyes widened.
"No!" She cried. Shahero laughed.
"That's what I thought." Miyami glared at her.
Ya see it's my style and I'll keep it true
I had a bad year but I got through
I've been knocked out, beat down, black and blue
She's not the one coming back for you
She's not the one coming back for you
"Hey, when did you get the new Rancid CD?" She asked curiously. Shahero grinned.
"I didn't." Miaymi eyed her suspiciously.
"You know my Rancid CD has been missing for the past few days." Shahero laughed nervously.
"Really? I never knew." She lied.
"You did too!"
"Yeah. There's no way you could've missed Mimi running around like a mad person trying to find that CD." Amber smirked.
If I fall back down
You're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down
You're gonna be my friend
Miyami glared at her. "Well it's one of my fav CD's and it went missing! How do you think I'd act?" Amber snickered.
"Do you really want me to answer that question?"
"Um, not really." Shahero laughed, and at the wrong time. Miyami's heated gaze turned back to her. "You took my CD didn't you?" She accused.
"Uh, yes, no."
"Maybe so." Amber chided. Miyami's eyes narrowed.
"Give it back." She hissed darkly, the underlying threat obvious.
"But I'm listening to it." Shahero whined.
"It's mine, now give it back."
"I will don't worry."
"Now!" Miyami snapped.
"But we're listening to it!"
"Calm down Miya. She'll give it to ya later. And if she doesn't then we'll take it from her by force." Amber cackled. Shahero grunted.
"Good luck to you." She muttered. At the glares she received from Miyami and Amber she smiled innocently.
If I fall back down
You're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down
You're gonna be my friend
"Alright. I'll leave you alone. But, you have to give it back to me right after the song." Miyami accented the but. Shahero nodded quickly and started to sing the words to the song.
It takes disaster to learn a lesson
We're gonna make it through the darkest nights
Some people pretend to make a reason
But that one make everything alright
Miyami had grabbed her black guitar with hot pink flames from its stand and started to play the guitar solo with Tim Armstrong. Amber's head was bobbing as she listened intently to Miyami play.
If I fall back downYou're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down
You're gonna be my friend
Shahero remembered that she still had to figure out what had gone on between Russia and Zareth, and what better way to get the information than with the gang to back her up.
"So Rush, what was with the blush fest you had going on when ya got home this afternoon?" Russia glared at Shahero. She smirked. She was blushing again. Miyami stopped playing and inclined her head to look at the red head.
"Finally! Bout time Forest made a move." Amber muttered.
"So tell us all the details." Miyami tucked her legs underneath herself. Russia's blush deepened.
"Nuthin." Shahero rolled her eyes.
"She's still in denial guys." Shahero flopped back on her bed and accidentally kicked Amber in the head with her dangling legs.
"Owie!" Amber cried and clutched her head, turning to glare at Shahero.
"Sorry." She muttered.
"Yeah. I guess it must be so unbelievable to Russ to have her dream come true." Russia's face was now beet red and she scowled at her 'friends'
"Ya guys are insufferable." She sighed and leaned back on her elbows.
"Was that sigh dreamy, or was I imagining it?" Shahero teased.
"Nope. Definitely dreamy." Arista piped up.
"Ah! She's alive! I thought you were dead up there. It was so quiet." Amber grinned. Arista shrugged.
"Didn't feel like talking." She replied shortly. Shahero smirked. Oh she did love to torture her friends.
"Yeah that, or she was daydreaming about Brooky Baby." She teased.
"Ah-ha! So I wasn't the only one who noticed it!" Miyami exclaimed. Arista blushed.
"Why would I be daydreaming about him?" she asked, baffled.
"Because you love him." Shahero taunted. "You want to kiss him." She sang. "And hug him and marry him." Shahero laughed, bringing her feet up to hold her knees against her chest and rolling to her side on the bed. Arista rolled her eyes.
"Hero you have issues." Arista slid her legs under the sheets and lay back on her bed.
"Sweet dreams." Shahero teased, chuckling at the exasperated sigh that came from Arista.
Suddenly, Arista sat up and her navy eyes flecked with amber stared challengingly into her own.
"Oh yeah? What about Hitoshi, huh? You so have the hots for him."
"N-no I don't." Shahero stammered.
"Oh please. It's so obvious." Amber added.
"Look who's talking Miss. I love Kai." Shahero teased, hoping she was successful in getting the subject off herself. Amber's face scrunched up in disgust.
"I do not. He's a huge prat."
"Yeah, a huge prat that you love." Shahero teased.
"Alright you know what. I'm tired of hearing her. Any one gonna help me shut her up?" Amber offered, standing on her bed.
"I'm in!" Arista agreed and jumped off her bed. Russia joined them too, her eyes holding a mischievous glint. Aspin sighed and slowly slid out of bed, annoyance showing in her green eyes.
"I will. Only because she won't shut up and I'm trying to sleep." Aspin agreed. Shahero pouted.
"Leave me alone." She whined. "I'm just making sure I teased you guys enough to last the weekend." Shahero climbed under the covers. Aspin's eyebrows furrowed.
"Why?" She asked curiously.
"Cause. Me and Ams are going home this weekend. Dad and Treasa had asked us to go home." Amber's eyes widened with realization.
"Ah fuck! I totally forgot." Shahero chuckled.
"Well now you know. Well I'm off to la la land. Night." Shahero snuggled up with Mikey under the covers and sighed.
"Hey!" Miyami called. "I want my CD back." She held her hand out expectantly as Shahero's head reappeared from under the covers.
"Oh yeah. Here." She took the CD out of her stereo and tossed to Miyami.
"Careful!" Miyami hissed as she examined her CD. Shahero rolled her eyes and buried herself under the covers once more.
"Damn. I can't believe I forgot." Amber whispered. Aspin sat cross-legged on the bed beside her.
"Why do you think your mom wanted you to go home for the weekend?" She asked. Amber shrugged.
"I dunno. Hero knows more about this then I do. She probably was whining to her dad till he told her what was going on." Amber chuckled. Aspin giggled. "I dunno what it could be. There are no birthdays that I know of, no anniversaries." Aspin shrugged.
"Your guess is as good as mine." She sighed and stood up. "I'm heading to bed. Good night."
"Night." Amber yawned and climbed under the covers with her teddy bear Joe.
Run! Her mind screamed. She growled. I am running! She told herself as she pushed herself harder. She had to get away from it, but how? It seemed to know where she went or where she was even when she wasn't visible. That couldn't be possible. Her sapphire blue eyes darted around the area. All she could see was red, buildings on fire and the ground exploding. She screamed and skidded to a halt when the ground in front of her exploded, spraying her with gravel. Her hands covered her head and her head bent.
She looked over her shoulder. The cobra's blood red hypnotic eyes were staring at her intensely. It hissed at her, its forked tongue darting out of its mouth and revealing its sharp poisonous fangs to her. She quickly ran around the wound in the ground and continued on her way. She found an alleyway and was tempted to hide there but thought better of it. There was a chance that it would be a dead end and then she'd be in trouble.
Once again she screamed as a rock shot out of the ground in front of her and she ran into it. She was breathing heavily and tried to move around the rock but it would just grow sideways, making a stone wall and blocking her from escape. She slowly turned around and slid to the ground. She ran a hand through her black and silver hair and watched with defeat as the snake slithered closer to her.
"Shhaheero." It hissed. Shahero whimpered as it wrapped itself around her leg almost sexually and slithered up her leg. It's tongue trailed along her leg as he moved and she shivered. It squeezed her thigh before moving up higher. She froze as it wrapped around her waist and spiralled up to wound loosely around her neck. It's eyes gazed into hers and she was afraid. She shut her eyes tightly, not wanting to gaze into those horrifying eyes. Her eyes snapped open as a hand stroked her cheek. She stared up into darkened light auburn eyes.
"Hi-Hitoshi?" She whispered. Hitoshi smirked.
"Yeah." He kneeled down in front of her with both hands pressed against the wall on either side of her head and ground his hips with hers.
"The snake." Her breath caught in her throat as his lips hovered over hers.
"It's gone." He answered huskily. His lips brushed hers and he pulled back. She cried out in protest, making him smirk. When he moved his lips to brush hers again she pushed her lips against his. She shifted so she was on her knees and wound her arms around his neck. Hitoshi moaned at her bold actions and his hands gripped her hips tightly. She leaned forward some more, causing Hitoshi to fall to his back. Shahero broke the kiss and stared at him with concern.
"I'm fine." He growled with need as he crushed her lips with his again. She moaned and parted her lips, granting him access to her mouth. His tongue battled with hers before moving to explore. His hands moved up from her hips to draw circles on her breasts. She gasped against his lips. He turned her over so he had her arms pinned above her head. He nibbled on her neck.
"Hitoshi…stop." She whimpered as a knot of need formed in her stomach. Hitoshi stopped and looked up into her confused pools of blue. He sat up and straddled her waist.
"What's wrong baby?" He rasped, his voice sore from kissing. Shahero looked away.
"Why are you in my dreams?"
"You don't want me here?" He asked with a hurt tone. She wasn't sure how to answer. She slowly sat up and pushed him off her.
"What's goin on?" She asked. She sounded so lost that it hurt his heart. Hitoshi sighed.
"I've found you. You're the one that I want. You're the one that I need." His fingers hooked under her chin and lifted it to meet his.
"I've found you." Were the last words she heard before an annoying ringing ran through her head.
Shahero was startled by the sudden ringing and shot up in her bed. She glowered at the bell and turned to look at her clock. She groaned and flopped back on her bed.
"Shahero!" Sonia called. "Come on you have to get up."
"No I don't." Shahero muttered sleepily. Sonia tugged Shahero's arm.
"Shahero you can't be late for breakfast."
"Hero common I'm not waiting for you." Miyami called.
"Get yar lazy ass outta dat bed right now." Russia called. Shahero chuckled.
"So polite." Shahero sneered as she slowly rolled over and fell out of bed.
"I know." Russia snickered at her unfortunate friend.
"Are you guys comin?" Arista's head appeared from behind the door.
"Tyson's eating all the food." Aspin complained as her head appeared just above the silver haired Russian's. Miyami laughed.
"Yeah we're comin. As soon as Hero gets dressed." Shahero stumbled out of the bathroom looking like she had just got out of bed. As usual she looked tired and pale and her hair was in disarray since she hadn't bothered to brush it and her oversized t-shirt hung off her right shoulder since the neck was too big. And her jeans looked like they were falling off since she wasn't wearing her belt to hold them up.
"Here." Russia handed her her belt and she quickly put it on. She grabbed her skater sneakers and hopped on one foot out the door while she put them on. Sonia shook her head and the group followed Shahero out the door.
"Hey. Where's Ams?" Shahero asked as she fell into step with Miyami. Miyami frowned.
"No idea." Shahero frowned also.
"That's weird."
"Uh-huh." They heard shouting behind them and turned to see Amber running down the hall towards them, still in her pyjamas. They laughed. "Hey Ams. Bout time ya got here." Miyami laughed.
"Yeah what happened?" Shahero slung her arm over her friend's shoulders. Amber's eyebrows furrowed as she glared at her.
"You guys left me in the room." She huffed and crossed her arms over her chest. "Alone." She added angrily. Shahero shrugged.
"Hey ya can't blame me. I thought you were ready already. I was running out the door still pulling my shoes on." Amber grinned.
"Oh well. Wasn't that hungry anyway."
"Nah me either. But Sunny-D insisted that I go." Shahero sent a light glare over her shoulder to Sonia who shrugged.
"It's important that you eat Hero."
"Yeah your skinny enough as it is." Miyami poked Shahero's stomach making Shahero jump.
"Hey! Don't so that it tickles."
"Ha ha! Good work Mimi ya found a weakness." Amber congratulated. Shahero scowled at them.
"Where's Brooky when ya need him." She muttered. Miyami and Amber exchanged glances.
"Since when do ya want him here?" Miyami asked.
"Since he became my favourite punching bag." Shahero shrugged. Amber nodded.
"Sounds fun."
"Very fun." Shahero's eyes twinkled with malice. "But I'll make sure that I don't hurt him too bad. It wouldn't do to kill him. Ris would miss him too much." Shahero smirked as she heard the Russian growl. Aspin pushed open the doors to the cafeteria and they walked in. They easily found their group and sat down. Miyami cuddled up to Johnny while Amber and Shahero exchanged confused glances.
"Now when did this happen?" Amber asked, sitting herself in between Tala and Bryan and motioning to Miyami and Johnny.
"Yeah!" Shahero exclaimed as she punched Johnny in the arm when she sat on his other side. Miyami grinned.
"Yesterday." She replied just before Johnny leaned down to kiss her. Shahero's face scrunched up.
"Blech." Shahero turned to talk to Russia who she saw was on her other side, but she was talking with Zareth. "Great. Need…to…get…away…from…the…love birds!" She gasped for breath as she collapsed into the seat beside Bryan. Bryan grunted out a laugh as he nudged his smaller companion. She bumped into Kane who was unfortunately on the other side of her.
"Hey watch it Shrimp." He snapped.
"Here let me sing you a song. Skinny marinky dink eedoo, I hope they crucify you! Like it?" She heard Bryan chuckle behind her and watched as Kane rolled his eyes and turned away from her. She sighed and leaned her head against Bryan's arm and closed her eyes. She brought her knees up to her chest and was drifting off to sleep peacefully when she was interrupted by the one and only, Kane the Pain. She growled and her eyes snapped open to glare darkly at the periwinkle haired boy. He was bothering Sonia again.
"Oh for the love of god, Satan, and all humanity shut up." She snapped. She didn't bother listening to his retort since she snuggled back up to Bryan and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. She tried getting some sleep again but could still hear Kane yapping in the background. She growled.
"Bryany, tell him to shut his yapper." She mumbled tiredly against his chest. Bryan's chest rumbled with a chuckle as he delivered the message to Kane. The second bell rang signalling class was about to start. Shahero cried in protest as Bryan picked her up bridal style and carried her to class.
"Here I'm doing you a favour." He grumbled.
"I can walk ya know." But her complaint fell on deaf ears as he carried her off to class.
