Sorry for updating so late.
Tests finished a bit ago, but I have to start packing... x.x
So... I apologize for the fact this is REALLY late, and the fact that it's kinda short.
Enjoy.

Another Clue
"It's rather sad actually."

"…"

"You cannot protect her forever."

"But I can try."

"Don't be so sure."

"I am."

"It is yours, and her, death."

"And so it will be."

XOXOXO

I don't see why I have to meditate.

I don't study karate or martial arts, or crap like that.

I want to study how to use a sword though.

Swords are fun.

And sharp.

Slap.

"Ow!" I cried out, rubbing the back of my stinging head, "What was that for?"

"You're not concentrating." The old woman replied back, in a really harsh voice.

What was her name again?

Gen… Gen… Gen something. Genkai I believe it was.

I have horrible memory…

"I am too." I muttered back.

Shoot.

I was starting another pointless argument.

Genkai glared at me, and replied back, "I can hear them. Your thoughts. There's too much at one time. You need to clear your mind."

What was she?

Psychic

Puh-lease.

She was friends with that counselor.

How psychic could she be?

But I settled down for a moment, letting my mind go blank.

…

Red popped into my mind.

Oh shit, I was doing good, not thinking about anything for like… A second, and then Red just had to go and pop into my mind!

I wonder where he is anyway…

Shoot…

Genkai suddenly got up, staring harshly at me, before turning around.

She started to walk out of the room.

"Wait! Where am I supposed to go?" I stumbled over the Japanese words that flew out of my mouth, as well as stumbling over my clumsy feet.

"Stay here." She muttered, and then closed the old fashioned sliding door with a snap.

"Stay here." I mocked, making my voice unnaturally high.

"I heard that."

I shivered, casting a look on the sliding doors, was she out there? Or did she just have really good hearing?

"Something… calls me here."

I scrambled back, my heart pounding, hitting my head in the process.

Red had come out of no where, and just started talking.

"There's a girl… I remember…"

My chest suddenly started to ache for some strange reason, and I bit my lip.

The green tongue of envy slowly slithers out of your mouth…

I winced, I didn't know what to say to my conscience, 'cause I think it was right.

"She… Is… Different from the others…"

Yep, they were probably dating.

The door slid open, and I hastily got to my feet, and pretended Red wasn't there.

It wasn't Genkai though; it was a sea green haired girl.

I bet she dyes her hair.

She was about the same size as me, me being very small.

But she looked more fragile.

Also, she had the most stunning crimson eyes I have ever seen.

Crimson eyes that looked kinda familiar…

Hm, oh well. I'll figure it out later.

"Hello!" I cried out happily, sticking my hand in front of her, "The name's Jo."

"Jo… I am… Yukina." The girl mumbled back, I think she was surprised at my actions.

"Well Yukina, why are you here?" I asked. I don't know why I suddenly asked that question.

I think maybe it's 'cause Genkai, I believe, is a counselor type person.

Maybe Yukina's here for… counseling?

Something about her screamed depression either way.

She seemed stunned, and gave me a small smile, her crimson eyes filling up with tears.

"Oh shit. I didn't mean to make you cry. I mean um… Well, you don't have to answer the question." I said quickly, trying to calm the other girl down.

Damn. You can make people cry rather easily can't ya?

Yukina sniffled, I think she was trying not to cry, and smiled through her unshed tears. "No, it's alright. I shouldn't be crying anyway."

I nodded, and then for some reason took a quick glance at my watch.

At the same moment, I remembered Red was still here.

Somewhere…

My eyes lighted up as I saw him, staring at Yukina.

He had this strange look on his face.

The look that recognized Yukina, but couldn't quite place her.

I shrugged, and then gave a quick smile to Yukina.

"Gomen, but I'll have to be going. It's been… well… Nice meeting ya Yukina!" I said, hastily getting up to my feet, tripping slightly, again, and running out the door.

Screw the fact that I'm supposed to wait for Genkai.

It was getting late, and man, if my parents were home, I would be dead.

XOXOXO

"Look at her… She knows nothing… Nothing of the deeds she will do. The people she will hurt. The people she will lose."

"Why…"

"Because… She has chosen the path."

"But she doesn't deserve it! Although you think she may, I know her better, she dose not, deserve it!"

"Do not argue with the higher power. This is something you cannot change."

"But…"

"She chose to walk down this path. When she chose to help him."

"She… She cannot help it. Why, why should she be punished for something that he may have don-"

"Silence. I cannot change it now. All you can do now, is watch."

"But…"

"There is nothing… you can do…"

XOXOXO

"Touchdown!" I exclaimed, rushing through the door of my house, and throwing my bag down as if it were a football.

My parents weren't home.

Again.

I know I should be used to it, but… You know, it does get lonely in a house like this.

"I think… I know why I'm here."

Oh crap!

I spun around, surprised, something I seem to be doing a lot these days.

It was Red. Once again.

He stared at me, his eyes boring into mine.

I think I started to flush, but I quickly mentally slapped myself.

Finally, his words fell into my ears, and I jumped up.

"Yay! Good, now tell me why."

I felt… weird...

I don't know why either…

Poo…

"That girl. In the temple." He started, never blinking.

Yukina.

"Yea, what about her?"

He chose his words carefully, "I think… I think she may have been something to me."

Well, duh, I knew that.

Once again I felt kinda jealous.

But Yukina was nice. And innocent. And calm. And… so… perfect…

Oh just listen to him.

I rolled my eyes, but turned my full attention onto Red.

"What was she to you?" I asked, forcing the words to come out of my almost closed up throat.

He shrugged, this time his eyes wandered away from me.

"Maybe… I was in love with her…"

And my world just got a whole lot worse.

Ah-hem.
Kinda weird, I know. :3
