Chapter 11 : I hope she's worth it
When Michiru woke up the next morning she noticed she lay in Haruka's arms on the huge bed she had slept on the past few days.Ofcourse they had only kissed , nothing more had happened but to Michiru this meant the world to her. Finally she had found someone who actually loved her.
Then she looked up at the blonde demon who slept peacefully. A smile appeared across Michiru's face as she tried to sit up. Much to her suprise Haruka's grip was too stong causing her to fall back onto the blonde.From the corner of her eye Michiru could see Haruka smirk. The blonde was awake.
The smaller girl just lay her head on Haruka's chest.'' Haruka ?''
'' Mhh ?''
'' Can we stay like this forever ?'' She asked a little bit afraid that Haruka would tell her she didn't really love her and just couldn't crush her heart.
'' I wish we could but i'm afraid it won't be long now.''
'' Ah ?''
'' I mean Celcus or Lucifer could attack us at any moment now , they already gave us a day which suprised me. Lucifer doesn't really like to wait , i know i worked for him since i was old enough to hold a knife.''
Michiru pulled away from Haruka's arms and sat up , a worried look crossed her face.'' Haruka , who exactly is Lucifer , he isn't like...the real devil is he ? I mean he's just called Lucifer right or is he the real thing , the thing that controls hell ?''
Haruka thought about if for a moment. She had seen a lot of pictures about how the devil could possibly look but none of them looked like Lucifer.'' I don't really know , i never thought about it and even if i did , he wouldn't answer.''
'' Is he strong ? Can you defeat him Ruka ?''
Haruka stopped looking at the ceiling and now focused on Michiru.'' Ruka ?'' The smaller girl blushed slightly , she didn't know why she said it , it just came out like that. The blonde just shook her head as she gazed back at the ceiling as if it was the most interesting thing in the world.'' I don't think i'm able to kill him , if we go to him now and try to kill him it's like suicide , it would be the same as putting a sheep in a lion's cage.''
Michiru nodded.If that lucifer was that strong than how could they possibly live a peaceful life ? Would Haruka leave her after this is all over ?' Wait , that's it. If Haruka wasn't wrong there maybe is a chance on killing that devil.' The smaller girl stood up from the bed and turned to face Haruka who stared at her with questioning eyes.
'' What are you doing ?''
'' I've got a plan how we can kill that...thing.'' Suddenly it felt so stupid she even thought about it.'' I thought that just maybe if we could transform into those Sailor senshi you were talking about we could...'' A tear fell down her face causing Haruka to stand up fromt he bed to and walked over to her crying lover.
'' Michiru why are you crying like that ? It's a good plan.'' The blonde whispered as she pulled Michiru close to her.
'' It's nothing.'' The aqua haired girl sobbed.' I'm no sailor Soldier , i've heard enough about them , sweet and innocent girls. I'm nothing like them , i'm a whore , a freak. I mean look at me...I wonder why Haruka even tries to love me.' The thought only made Michiru cry harder.She knew Haruka had to leave her one day. The blonde was a demon , she could never adjust into the real world , eventually she would return to hell and leave her alone.
'' Shh it's okay.'' The blonde whispered into Michiru's ear even though she didn't know why Michiru was crying.
Michiru fastly pulled away.'' Yes it is. I really love you Ruka but...''
'' But ?''
'' We can't do this , it's wrong. If i ever want a normal life , i can't stay with you.I'm leaving.'' With that Michiru brushed past the blonde heading for the door.Haruka caught grip of Michiru's wrist before the girl could escape.
'' I thought you wanted this so badly. Weren't you the one who tried so hard for us two to be together ?''
Michiru shook her head. She already started to regret what she was about to say next.'' I lied , i pretended to love you can't you see that ? I didn't want to die so i used you for my own goals.'' Her own heart was breaking but it was Haruka's heart which really felt like it was ripped out of her chest.
'' Oh.'' Was all the demon could say before releasing Michiru's wrist.'' In that case , go. I hope you enjoyed playing around Michiru.''
'' I did.'' The smaller girl said not lookig at the blonde anymore. Why was she doing this ? Were the other pupils from school right , was she a freak ?' What the hell am i going to do next ? I don't wanna be different but i'm a lesbian , will i ever be able to change that ? I really love you Ruka , i'm sorry i hurt you. I really am.' With that she turned away but just on that moment as if the gods were laughing at them Lucifer appeared in the room beating Haruka to the ground with one hit.
Shocked Michiru turned around to find out what had just happened behind her back. When she saw Haruka laying on the ground looking rather hurt she looked up at the demon who stood there. He seemed old but strong. His skin looked like it was burned out and in stead of having normal eyes his eyes were red with black dots in them. She knew without even knowing why that this was the devil they all called Lucifer and somehow he was familiar to her.
'' Ah finally we meet Princess Neptune.'' He said his voice burning in her ears. Why did his voice sound so familiar ?'' You would probably be scared to death now.'' He continued when he saw the fearful look on the aqua haired girl's face.'' And you should be too , because when i'm done with this bitch.'' He said pointing at Haruka who still lay on the ground. Blood was dripping down the face letting the smaller girl see Haruka was still alive since there was still more blood coming.'' Then i'll kill you.'' He finished a little bit suprised that Setsuna hadn't reached the two woman yet.
'' Leave Haruka alone , it's me you want. In all her life she has done nothing but serve you , please let her live , i beg of you. I'll do anything.'' She begged earning a small smile from the devil in front of her.
'' Ah yes but , i can't promise you i won't hurt or kill her , simply because that would be lying and i don't lie.'' He answered. On that moment Celcus appeared next to Lucifer bowing fastly before straightening up. For a second Michiru could see his eyes focused on Haruka. Michiru was almost sure she saw a worried look on the Celcus's face but then he turned back to look at Lucifer again never confirming Michiru's suspicion.
'' I've found Setsuna , she's locked up in the basement again , i've got some demons to guard her.''
' Setsuna ? Who is Setsuna ?' Michiru asked herself. Also this name was familiar to her but not as Lucifer was familiar to her.' Setsuna Meioh ? i've read about her , she is known as a very rich and respected designer. What does she have to do with this ?'
'' Good.'' Lucifer stated as he started walking up to Michiru.'' Celcus , you kill Tenoh after i'm gone , i'll take care of our princess. I'm not going to kill her yet.'' Celsus nodded as he watched Lucifer step closer to Michiru and grabbed her wrist pulling her close to his rotten body.Then they dissapeared leaving Haruka and Celsus behind in the dark room.
The demon just looked at the unconscious bodythat lay on the ground waiting until the blonde would wake up. He couldn't believe Haruka fell in love with someone she was suppossed to hate , but he was more suprised that Haruka had fallen in love in the first place.' I hope she's worth it Tenoh.'
