Chapter 7: Who am i really...

!.! Ashur's Pov!.!

'Something isn't right...I feel wierd...how come...' I woke up in the bathroom, coughing up blood, my chest hurt, and so did my head, I felt like my whole body was on fire, what had happened, only when I looked up did I realize a shinen was leaning over me. Or at first I thought it was a shinen but looking closer I realized that it was a silent. 'Oh no a silent...' The silent touched my forehead, the pain was so intense just like it had been before when he had been attacked at the tower, some of his memories were coming. "I was attacked by you...you're the silent that infected me...why..." The door opened as Atsuki walked in, it was like I wasn't even here, but when I reached out and touched Atsuki, he turned and looked at me."A..ashur are you okay..."I moved and looked at him, I didnt' know what I was doing after all my body was so weak I couldn't lift myself up, there was nothing I could do." I know who the silent is..." my voice cracked as Atsuki helped me up leading me out of the room into the kitchen. "How did you figure it out Ashur..." I didn't know how to tell him, the silent had visited my and I figured that Atsuki wouldn't understand me even if I told him, after all I was so not sure that I could even tell him at all, it made it worse when I met Mika, and when Mika had hurt me, that was what made this even worse. "It was when Mika...did what...she...well yea it seemed to get worse around then and well now it's so bad that its infecting others...its going from me...to them...and now it's back to me...It made me kill myself...and now that it hasn't succeeded he's not going to stop..." That was hard to anyone to believe, after all I stood here okay not one actual wound on me. Was I making it up or maybe it was a illusion to me as well."There is no way Ashur you are here now...alive. Something might have happened, but it wasn't that." Atsuki was trying to make sense out of all of this, maybe that thing had made me jump out the window. But It had a reason for keeping me alive. Even I knew that at this point. But why had it kept me alive there had to be some sort of reason. And yet even now my mind couldn't quite figure it out as hard as it was trying to figure such a thing out there might have been more failure then I wanted to realize now.

"Atsuki..." the pain returned to my eyes, blood dripping down my face leaving small little puddles on the ground next to me. "Ashur...let's get you taken care of..." Atsuki seemed to dig around in his pocket and pull out a cloth. He dabbed my eyes with it, the blood flow seemed to have stopped. "What if I'm becoming a monster...like those one people...who are infected..." I knew that deep down within my heart I did not wish to become like that but what choice did I have there was nothing I could really do to prevent it. Not with the way things seemed to be going. "You won't become a monster I will make sure of that..." Atsukl smiled at me, and he seemed to be lifting me up, but as he did I could see his form shift. To reveal a smaller spirit like form of Atsuki, the form looked like it was in pain, crying next to the smaller spirit form was a girl, with pink hair and what looked like red eyes. Her name was familiar, Lil wasn't it. How I knew that name to this day still escapes me, though I wished to know more. She just put her hand to her lips, kissed the smaller Atsuki and it seemed that the two faded away. What was she trying to tell me it had to be something of some meaning right. "Atsuki..." He just shook his head as if he was telling me to stop talking but I had to tell him. Had to speak to him before something bad happened to him. I didn't want him to die, or get hurt. Did he realize that, but it was like my voice was failing me. 'Have to tell Atsuki...' As my vision turned dark I could hear laughter, part of me thought it was just in my head. 'You can't save him...Get over it Ashur...His soul is mine...' that made no sense how could someone do that to Atsuki, he was strong but there was no way to know for sure right.

~End of Ashur's Pov~

"Time to get him to bed..." Atsuki picked the boy up and moved him out of the bathroom to the bed, it was time for him to rest. What had happened though, the questions were flowing through his mind. He had to know why Ashur had said the things he did, there had to be a good reason for it. "He's putting himself in harm's way this has to be dealt with...it must be stopped..." He wanted to make sure that it was stopped, if it didn't end up stopping then what was he supposed to do. He picked up his phone and sighed, dialing up Rui. He was going to ask her to watch over Ashur while he went out. He had somethings he wanted to do. "What's up Atsuki?" She sounded like she was bored, or maybe tired, he could tell she had probably been sleeping. "Well I had some work to do...and I'm a bit nervous on leaving Ashur here alone...can I drop him off at your place...He'll probably sleep most of the time...but if he wakes up..." He paused did he really want to move him now, would it be a good idea at all."He'll be fine as long as he has something to do...but please don't let him go outside...alone or at all would be nice...but we all know how stubborn he is..." Atsuki was concerned, majorly concerned he had to check things out but he didn't know if this was a good idea anymore. "Oh alright I was closing the shop but I'll leave the door unlocked you can put him on the couch I'll be making some food..." She didn't seem that bad about watching him but he knew that he had to be careful, he didn't want to hurt anyone or get them involved. It was better if it was just him, he didn't know what was supposed to happen to him from here on out now.

"Thanks..." He hung up the phone and moved to pick Ashur up, he had taken care of the child and cleaned him up now he had to go."Come on Kiddo...I'm taking you too Rui...please be careful and don't run off..." He sighed and wanted to stay with the boy but if he didnt' find out what was going on not like it would help him. He had to at the very least try or this was just going to get worse. Not that he wanted to tell Ashur that, if he died, he didn't want his friend to blame himself. He moved to Rui's house and walked through it with Ashur before he put the boy on the couch. "I'm leaving now thank you for watching him..." He smiled and waved before walking out. The air outside was cold, even more so then he had thought. He felt someone watching him, but he was not sure who it was. He coughed, and sneezed, the air outside was a bit too cold for his tastes and he wanted it to just go away soon. 'This isn't a good idea...Atsuki you shouldn't come out here alone...you should tell Fort...' It was like his mind was speaking to him not that he would let anyone know what he was actually thinking moved forward stepping across the street past the bookstore, he knew he had to go now before they ended up finding out he was gone. He knew he would have to find out what was going on here, there was something out here. He would not let anything go wrong, or let his friends get hurt again, he would feel bad if he failed. He felt a presence and turned around just in time to avoid a knife. He was not sure why this was happening, his mind was faltering he looked into the cold gold eyes. "No stay away...leave me alone..." Atsuki kicked him, and shoved him away, his body hurt but he had to move he couldn't stay here not now. Not after all of this, he had to move fast before this person did something. He winced, and moved the Sigma power showed up in his only had the power in one eye,but the thoughts he got from this person were not good ones, and he was not sure if he wanted to stay now.

'Death...''You will die...for messing with us...'

'Give us your power...that other side...'

'Or we will kill you...'

'Split his soul...'

'No one can save you now Atsuki Saijo...''He's the Zero-time Telepath...'

Atsuki broke away his arm was bleeding and he kicked the man away from him, he was not going to wait to deal with this, he knew he had to get out of here fast before it got worse. He turned and was moving quickly before he ran into Akira, it was that kid from school. He did talk to him a lot, but he wanted to get out of here, before it got complicated. He had to get out of here but looking up at Akira he just coughed. "Saijo why are you out here...you look really pale...Let's get you inside..." Atsuki looked at Akira and then turned around. He had a feeling someone was watching him. Though he didn't know what to do from there. "A...Akira I'm fine...just a little winded..." He coughed again and tried to get away from Akira. The older male would have nothing of it."Come on you are going home now..."Akira took Atsuki by the arm and started to drag him back to the house, well to Atsuki's house. The door was still unlocked, Akira moved through the door holding his friend. "Lay down on this bed and don't move..." He moved out of the room and emailed, or well called Honoka the school nurse. "What do you mean Akira..." The nurse sounded worried, Saijo never got sick. She was sitting in her office tapping her pen on the desk. "I don't know I found him he was shaking, his arm was cut up...and he was acting as if he was like sick...he's in his room now...but could you come over and take a look at him please..." Akira never said please but he was really worried about Saijo that was not a good thing whatever was wrong with him. "Alright...for now try to get him to eat something, and get him stripped down if you could...wrap up his hand too..." Honoka hung up her phone and was packing up her stuff.

She had never come to Atsuki's house like this, but if Akira called her there had to be a reason. Back at Atsuki's house Akira had walked back into the room with a wet cloth, some things to clean up Atsuki's hand. And the food he had made, he was going to try to get him to eat like he had been told. "Atsuki how are you feeling...?" The boy was still laying on the bed, not a word was said. It was like the boy was weak and exhausted, he was coughing again. "Honoka is coming over she said you need to try to eat...at least get some food in you..." He helped the boy sit up, as he started to clean the wound. "Ow..."Atsuki whimpered and tried to pull away, but Akira held fast and wrapped it up before he put a pillow behind the boy."Are you alright..." Atsuki's eyes were empty, he wouldn't even look up though he whimpered from time to time and tried to move around. "Fine..." He wanted to get those images out of his mind, but his body hurt the eyes that he had seen were driving him nuts. He felt like he had seen them before but where had he seen them there had to be a place. He just couldn't remember where it was like his mind was escaping him. Akira had tried to feed Atsuki but he just shoved it away, curling up in a ball shivering. He felt Akira cover him with the blanket, he knew that something was off. Ashur had been brought back to the house and was curled up on the then someone else knocked on the door. "Mudoh let me in..." It was Honoka, she must have run here since her voice was strained. He opened the door, looking at her before he moved aside to let her in.

"Where's Atsuki?" Akira pointed back to the room where the boy was resting, or well curled. She walked in and leaned down next to him moving his hair from his eyes. "Just a little fever...and the wound...hm...he shouldn't use this hand for awhile...I'll leave some medicine with him...Akira you should go home..." She would stay with Atsuki till he was better at least for now. Ashur was still out as well, so it wasn't like she had much to worry about. "But...fine I'll go and then be back to check on him tomorrow..."Akira gathered his things and walked out, he would walk to the cake shop, and walk home with his father. Though he wanted to stay with Atsuki."Atsuki what happened...?" She wanted to know, but he was refusing to tell her, maybe it was him being overly cautious he was not sure. "Nothing...just saw someone...and not feeling good I'll be fine by tomorrow..." He covered his eyes with the blanket and seemed to fall asleep. When she walked out of the room, a spirit like form seemed to pull away from had no idea how he was here, he thought he would have vanished, being a part of Atsuki and all of that. He had to be doing a good thing right. "how did I!" He screamed, though only Atsuki, and maybe Natsuki could hear him. "help me Atsuki help!" He was pulled through the wall, and dragged out onto the street. "Let me go..." He growled and fought against them, his spirit formed gained a stronger form and his vision faded to black as he lost conciousness.
