Chapter 7; forgiveness and moving on.

Max pulled the hoodie strings on her stained brown hoodie until they were perfectly even. She let her now long brown hair spill over her shoulders as she raked a stick through her hair. Max had just took a swim through the pond to rid herself of the grime and sweat that she had endure through her last training sessions. She looked over to Liu who had been just sitting on a rather large rock. His hair (also in need of a trimming) Had grown enough to just nip at his shoulders enough to irritate him as he swatted at it every few seconds. Max sighed and she took a seat next to Liu. They hadn't said a word to each other unless it had to do with the training.

Liu looked over to Max and he looked as if he were about to say something but he quickly changed his mind as all he could think about was the scars on her neck that had just barely began to heal and the pain that he has caused her. Max looked at Liu and frowned slightly as she noticed him "staring" at her. She let out a sigh and she turned her head away. Liu felt this action and he got up and left. His head hung low as he tried to come up with something to say to her, something that would make Max forgive him for the actions he did not mean to conduct. Max watched as Liu left and she let out a low growl. She felt anger bubble inside of her as all she could see was Liu attacking her for no wanted to forgive him, she tried to think that he had been only acting on self defense but she just couldn't get over it.

This rivalry seemed to last a few days before the tension between them became so dense that Liu could not stand a single second with Max without her lashing out at him for everything that he did. Oh he dropped a fork, Max would just yell at him for it, lashing at him about how awful he was. Liu felt the anxiety drip with every ounce of blood that coursed through his veins. It made him restless and he seemed to be very twitchy. His lust for blood grew stronger and soon Max found herself to be alone in the under ground house for hours at a time while Liu hunted to satisfy his hunger. Sometimes Max contemplated as to withier or not she should run away, but decided against it as she didn't want Liu to attack her.

One day though, Max had been sitting on the couch as she once again ignored Liu. She watched as it pained him, his awkward twitches signaled that Max was taking this too far. But she didn't care. In fact this brought joy to her as she watched him feel pain for losing his friend. Max smiled to her self and she walked up to Liu and her smile widened as his frightened figure tensed with every step she took. It brought pleasure to her. Max soon felt a strange feeling come over her as her vision was tainted with a slight red color and all she could think was the tiny droplets of blood.

"Liu... I'm still very mad at you, do you under stand that?" Max asked, her voice cold as ice sent shivers down Liu's spine. Liu let out a quick nod craning his neck to look at her. "Nodding your head is not a suitable answer Liu. Now do you under stand me, liu?" Max let out a little chuckle as she figured out what she was going to do to him.

"Yes Max... I understand." Liu said as he wiped away some of the blood that just would not stop flowing from his eye sockets. Max smiled as she carefully pulled out a small object from her pocket. It glistened in her hand and she smiled at its shininess.

Max didn't say anything as she got closer to him. Max couldn't help but tremble from excitement. Liu has made a mistake that she was going to fix. Liu let out a whimper as he felt Max's breath on his neck.

"Max... I've told you, I'm sorry... I don't know how many times I need to explain to you what came over me but this needs to end. I know that your stubborn but accidents happen and I had reacted in a panicked way." Liu managed to choke out before Max placed the cool blade against his throat. Max smiled at him.

"Oh Liu, whats done is done and I don't think that I can forgive you. After all of the pain and torcher that you put me through. It hurts Liu, and now I'm going to make sure you never hurt me or anyone else again!" Max yelled out her wings twitched slightly behind her and she let out a insane laugh as she slashed Liu's neck. Liu let out a cry of pain as he jumped out of his seat and lunged at Max, pinning her to the floor.

"You're INSANE!" Liu yelled as he wheezed. Blood trickled from his neck and landed on Max. His whole body shook and he couldn't help but cough. Max laughed and she flipped Liu over so that way she was now pinning him down.

"Yeah, I may be insane, Liu. But you must realize that you are the one to trigger me!" Max replied and she dragged the knife around Liu's face leaving small cuts all over his face. Liu let out a sharp cry as he began to reach into his pocket. Max noticed his movements and she punched Liu in the face. Liu then pushed Max off of him and he pinned her against the wall, refraining from actually hurting her.

"Max... stop! You've ma-" Liu fell to his knees as he felt pain explode from his stomach and he looked down too see a knife lodged into his stomach. He coughed up blood and finally fell to his side before looking at Max. "I-I'm so sorry Maximum!" Liu choked out before closing his eyes.

Max looked down at Liu and then at the knife and then at her hands before a sick realization smacked her in the face. She had killed her mentor, her friend, her savior. Over a stupid act he had claimed to be sorry for. Max let a small tear trickle down her cheek as she tried to figure out what had come over her and then it hit her.

She hadn't known what had come over her, just as Liu had no acknowledgement as to what had come over him.

Max felt like shit, her body trembled as she stared at Liu. His hand tucked neatly into his pocket as blood pooled around him. Max felt like throwing up... sure, she has killed people but never has she felt any remorse like she had been feeling right now for the loss of he friend. Max couldn't handle the pain as tears swelled out of her eyes. She ran into her room and grabbed the small bag that held all of her clothes and weapons and she ran up the stairs and out of the home she called her own for almost a year.


Wow, I cant believe I had the balls to write that. To be honest I feel sad. R.I.P liu liu.
