Oh, by the way, if you want to know a little more about Tsuyu, visit my profile~! ^^ Now enjoy!


"SHUT UP!" The re-borned goddess commanded as thunder began to flash. "You all did this knowingly… You knew the consequences… And now… You will have to pay for it… With your life…"

"W-what's going on?!"

They all scattered and stumbled into different directions. Tsuyu, however, stood there, glaring at all them with a sense of deep sense of hatred and anger in her eyes. The usually-fragile girl was suddenly towering over all the men and paralyzing them with just a look.

"Worthless beings… You have no reason to live any longer… You harass and destroy others due simply to the fact you cannot get what you want… Why not live in harmony and peace with one another..? So I shall end your sinful lives right this moment to prevent you from committing anymore deeds…" Tsuyu declared, laughing gleefully as the ground shook to form a duet with her laughter.

"N-no! S-spare us! We're innocent..!" They pleaded.

"You..? Innocent..?" The sapphire-haired female repeated. "You expect me to believe that..? Polarmax!"

With that, a snowstorm began to brew up. The surrounding turned cold and with white sheets of snow everywhere. The snow glittered with pieces of gems as it got carried by the heavy wind around, cutting up all the living things in its path. The group screamed in agony… And soon, all that can be found are snow covered with red spots and glittering sapphire gems.

"Shinku Yuki…" Tsuyu murmured. "Crimson snow… How beautiful…"

No later than one second after she said that, she collapsed and fell onto the patch of white snow…

*With Rufus*

"Ungh…" A certain brunette demon grunted as he got up. "Ahh… The sun is so bright…"

In the corner of his eyes, he saw the re-born goddess lying by his side.

"Tsuyu..!" He called, shaking her. "H-hey…"

Still, there was no sign of movement from her at all. Worried, the bounty hunter scooped her up in his arms and carried her to the healer in the village.

"It seems that this young girl here has over-exerted herself… Therefore, I cannot help her in recovery…" was the response he was given.

"What are you talking about?!" Rufus demanded, slamming his hands on the table.

"I can understand the emotions you are carrying right now. Your girlfriend is beautiful and innocent in every way possible," The healer sympathized. "But she has secrets you do not know… Even she does not even know the secrets that she holds… So if I were you… Beware…"

Rufus was confused. Secrets? What kind of secrets? The bounty hunter pondered over the words of the healer as he waited for Tsuyu to wake up. While she was still out cold, Rufus decided to go buy some food to eat. While he was walking down the streets, he saw a medicine shop. That reminded him…

"How was I not bruised..? I should still be hurt from what happened yesterday…" The crimson-eyed demon spoke out loud. "I remembered because I used expunge… I was knocked out… And then my rib was bleeding…"

Maybe what that healer said had to do with this … Rufus thought, sighing. Whatever it is, I hope I can get to the bottom of it soon… It would be a shame if something happened to Tsuyu… She's so beautiful… She's like a goddess… So pure and innocent… She's one thing that makes my heart melt… The blood-shot male demon couldn't help but blush at that thought as he bought some food and headed back to the Healer's place. He took a seat by Tsuyu's feet on the bed, taking in her imagery and thinking about her. She's so pure… I love her, but will she ever accept me? I am, after all, a demon…

"I see you're troubled. You are afraid that she won't accept you, due to the fact you are a blood-thirsty demon," The mysterious healer chuckled.

"H-how did you know..?" Rufus stuttered, shocked.

"Your expression and attitude has it all," She shrugged, smiling. "Young love… But remember what I told you? She has secrets… If you become her lover, it will be revealed slowly to you… I can also read your destiny…"

"What are you talking about..?" Rufus demanded, somewhat blushing.

"Two entirely different beings… Such as you and the girl… Are not suited for each other… However, both of your being together will only bring pain and hurt to the other…" The wise woman warned as she turned her back to him to work on creating her elixirs.

He stared at the woman for a while; then his gaze drifted back to the sleeping beauty that lay on the bed- pondering about the words of the healer… He closed his eyes, only to snap them open immediately when a heard a cough.

"R-Rufus..?" A gentle voice called out.

"I'm right here," Rufus told her, coming by her side to aid her.

"W-what happened to me..?" She asked in a small voice.

"I don't know… I saw you right next to me when I woke up… You tried to get you to wake up, but you didn't, so I took you to the healer of of the Kerrie Village," Rufus explained.

"That was very kind of you," Tsuyu said, blushing. "But yesterday… You weren't hurt that bad, right? I mean, you don't look so bad…"

"No, I'm fine. Just a bit troubled," He told her his troubles.

"Well, it looks like the Gods shone their light and powers on you," She smiled after hearing it. "You're really lucky they care about you."

"I suppose," Rufus agreed. "You know, I was actually really worried about you…"

"R-really..?" Tsuyu blushed, then admitted," I-I was too… You told me you'd come after the fight was over… But even after the gunshots stopped, you didn't come… I got worried and went to to check… But that's all I remember."

Rufus stared at Tsuyu. Tsuyu stared at Rufus. All of a sudden, they felt a jolt and were shocked. Immediately, they looked away from each other, blushing madly.

"Young love…" The healer sighed, shaking her head at the pair.

Only when she said that did they notice their hands were entwined with the other.
