Chapter 6:
Hikaru looked around him but saw no one in sight and thought that the Onmyouji was talking to him.
"I…"
Hikaru was not able to continue as he was interrupted by the rustling of branches. A shadow jumped down from a tree branch and landed neatly, a few meters away from the Onmyouji.
"So you caught me." The person said as he walked toward the Onmyouji.
Hikaru quickly sucked in a breath as the light from the house spilled upon the person's face.
' Akira!!!!!' The name 'Akira' was ringing very loudly in Hikaru's head as he saw the person's face.
'What!!!What!!!' Hikaru was more shocked than surprised when he saw the supposed 'Akira' jumped down from the tree and was walking towards the Onmyouji.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I was expecting you, Akira sama. Hikaru hime told me that you will come." The Onmyouji said while looking at the teenage boy.
"Then you should know what I want, and I will get it done." Akira said forcefully as he stared at the Onmyouji, who was about a meter away from him.
"Yes, I do know what you intend to do. But Hikaru hime told me specifically to prevent you from doing so. And I will try my best." Just as the Onmyouji finished speaking, he mumbled a few words and moved his hands into a few gestures.
Akira felt that something was wrong and tried to jump back quickly, but in the end, he was still caught by some invisible netting.
The Onmyouji rushed towards the boy in a spilt second with his fist rose, trying to lay a hit on Akira.
Akira raised his arms in the netting to try to block the fist, but alas it was a feint.
"You…" Akira spoke faintly as he fell into unconsciousness by a precise chop on his neck.
The Onmyouji caught Akira before he fell towards the ground.
"I am sorry, but this is for my selfishness too. Forgive me…" whispered the Onmyouji as he placed Akira gently onto the ground.
'Sai…' the Onmyouji thought sadly as he looked at the cloudless night sky.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There was a creaking sound as one of the doors opened.
Hikaru saw the girl from this morning, stepped out from a room of the house. The girl caught sight of the Onmyouji and the unconscious Akira, and immediately rushed towards them.
She quickly fell towards Akira's side to check if he was all right.
"Akira sama is fine, he is just in a state of unconsciousness, Hikaru hime."
"Thank you." She said as she faced the Onmyouji, her face dropping the tense expression.
There was a brief moment of silent, when the Onmyouji said:
" Hikaru hime, after all the things I had told you about the spell, do you still want to continue?"
"Haaii…I will still continue." She said.
"Even though doing this, will hurt those who love you?"
"Yes." Hikaru hime said with determination, but sadness flashed for a moment in her eyes as she spotted the person lying still beside her.
"Then we shall start now." The Onmyouji said as he deactivated the spell on Akira. He then summoned his servants to prepare the proper equipment, and to place the unconscious teenager to the nearest bench.
The Onmyouji quietly and quickly gave his equipment a final check and prepared the things needed for the spell before facing Hikaru hime.
"Now is the time. Hikaru hime, please sit in the middle of the larger circle that I had drawn."
The girl quietly stepped into the circle, and sat down, after folding her Kimono properly.
The Onmyou then placed a goban in a smaller circle beside the large circle that Hikaru hime was in.
The Onmyouji then started to draw symbols around the smaller circle first, with a specially made ink. The ink glowed eerily in the dark when each symbol was drawn. After finishing with the smaller circle, the Onmyouji then proceed on to the bigger one. When he reached the last symbol that he had to draw, he looked up and said softly to the girl in the larger circle:
"Do you still want to proceed on? If this circle is sealed there will be no turning back."
"Yes."
"Even though this will cost you your life and change your future?"
"Yes! We talked about this already Semei sama!" Hikaru hime snapped and gave the Onmyouji a fierce look, but her eyes were threatening to cry.
The Onmyouji saw that and pulled the girl into a tight hug.
"I know this will be hard, that is why I do not want you to regret doing this, even if it is for Fujiwari."
"No, I will not regret it." The girl sobbed she buried her face into the Onmyouji's chest.
They remained in this position for a moment, before the Onmyouji gently pushed the girl apart.
"Here, dry your tears. You need to be strong Hikaru hime." The Onmyouji said as he wiped her tears off with his sleeve.
"Haaii…" Hikaru hime said as she stopped crying.
"Hai!" She said again with great determination as she focused back onto the current topic.
"Semei sama, thank you for your understanding, I am all right now. You may continue with the spell."
The Onmyouji smiled sadly as he drew the last symbol.
The circles began to glow very brightly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bright light flashed upon the teenager's face, lightening up his uncommonly beautiful face and his dark green hair. The bright light caused the eyes of the boy to hurt, as the light continued to become even brighter.
"Urggg…" The boy said as he tried to wake up from his unconsciousness.
His eyes opened and focused on the scene before him, which caused him to immediately forget about his still asleep body, and to rush towards the larger glowing circle.
Akira did not know that he was on a bench and thus this caused him to fell straight down onto the ground with a loud:
"Thud!".
This caused the person in the bigger circle to look up and smile sadly at him, before starting to dissolve into the air as the light given off become too bright to be looked upon.
"NO!!!!!" Akira shouted desperately as he tried to crawl towards the spell site, recognizing the spell and knowing what it would do.
Hikaru hime looked through the blinding circle and said something while smiling gently at Akira before she was gone, leaving only her clothing to fall behind onto the ground.
Akira stared stunned at the scene and shouted with great pain and sorrow:
"HIKARU!!!!!"

Author's note:
Well, to help in your understanding in this and the next chapters, it is mostly about Hikaru hime (which is Hikaru's past life) and Akira's past life too. The real Hikaru ( The male one) is currently at a side, overlooking everything that is happening in this dream (Which is not actually a dream. It is more like a figment of what had really happened in Hikaru's past life and Hikaru is currently watching it.). Hope this explanation help (I hope I did not make it worst :p) to those who are confused. Please enjoy the story!
I am really thankful to all the plp who had reviewed especially Ai-Kusabana and DeathGodGirl for their constant reviews :).
For Scorpiooo , I will try writing more BL stories :) . But sad to say this story will not be a BL one. BUUUTTT it will still be Akira and Hikaru pairing in the end.( catch it ?)
And plz review!!!! I want to know how I am really doing, cause I am a little lost myself…:p
O, and I just like to ask. Do you guys prefer long chapies or short ones? Cause this chap was supposed to be a long one (about 3000 words, cause initially I did not want to cut the flow of the story, but ya I still cut it…cause I think it will be easier for you all to digest it better???)
