Sorry for the long wait guys! Just to be safe ALL of my stories are on hold because I'm transferring to a new school and such. Yes, I'll try to update every story as son as possible, but I've been very busy lately and there's not much inspiration around. Anyways, here's the next chapter of "The Twin War – She's Mine!"
Disclaimer- I don't own Ouran High School Host Club, any of it's characters, or any songs I put in here
Chapter 5
Kaoru finally reached Haruhi's and Amazake's house. He stole a glance at the sleeping girl on his back and faintly smiled. People passing by stared at them, whispering to each other. Some were nice comments, others not so much. Kaoru looked up where the apartment should be. He smiled again and looked at Amazake again.
"Don't worry Amazake, we're almost there . . ." he whispered, beginning to walk up the steps. He knocked on the door, but there was no answer. Kaoru then tried opening the door, and it opened, it was unlocked. He shrugged it off and walked in the small house, taking off his shoes and closing the door behind him.
He looked around the house, trying to see which room was hers. He saw one with black walls and paint splatters all around in different colors. He walked in and saw many pictures of a little girl with a dog and cat. He stopped and stared at one. It was a little girl with waist length black hair, large hot pink eyes, pale skin, and a baggy pair of black shorts with a baggy blue shirt on top. She had a goofy grin and a funny looking hat that looked like a construction hat with a flashlight on it. It was too big on the girl's head and it hung a little too low. There was a puppy on the right side and a cat on the left side of her. The dog was a black puppy with white on its paws, muzzle, and near its right brown eye. The cat was white with one black front paw, one black back paw, and on its forehead. Kaoru smirked and chuckled a bit.
"So that's Amazake as a child," he said to himself before setting Amazake on her bed. He pushed her hair out of her face and continued looking around her room. He found a book open with lyrics written in it. He picked it up and read it, a bit shocked at the lyrics, wondering what they meant.
"Monster"
His little whispers.
Love Me. Love Me.
That's all I ask for.
Love Me. Love Me.
He battered his tiny fists to feel something.
Wondered what it's like to touch and feel something.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.
Looking through the window . . .
That night he caged her.
Bruised and broke her.
He struggled closer.
Then he stole her.
Violet wrists and then her ankles.
Silent Pain.
Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.
Looking through the windows.
I will.
Hear their voices.
I'm a glass child.
I am Hannah's regrets.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Turn the sheets down.
Murder ears with pillow lace.
There's bath tubs.
Full of glow flies.
Bathe in kerosene.
Their words tattoed in his veins, yeah.
Kaoru looked over to Amazake, his face shocked and surprised. He put the book down and looked around her room, seeing pictures of her, the dog, and the cat. Suddenly, the pictures of her smiling and grinning, turned into frowns and straight faces. The dog and cat were gone, and it was only her, and sometimes Haruhi. He saw CDs everywhere. They were all English.
That would explain the English lyrics . . . but why would she write English lyrics when she's Japanese? Kaoru wondered. Kaoru walked back to Amazake and kneeled in front of her.
Violet wrists and then her ankles. Silent pain.
He checked her wrists and her ankles, just to make sure. And sure enough, they looked bruised and purple. She flinched at his touch and rolled to her side. Kaoru got up and looked around the house, looking for the phone.
"I have to call Haruhi . . ." he mused aloud before finding the phone and dialing Haruhi's cell phone.
"Moshi moshi?" he heard Haruhi's voice question.
"Haruhi, I need you to come down here," he said, "Now."
"How come?" she asked, "What happened? Is Amazake okay?"
"I'll explain everything when you come down to your apartment, okay?" he said, ready to click the off button and hang up.
"Sure, I'll be right down," she answered and they hung up.
About five minutes later, Haruhi and everyone else was there.
"Kaoru? Kaoru, where are you?" Haruhi called.
"In here!" he called back, still in Amazake's room. They all walked in and saw Amazake's sleeping form, Kaoru kneeling in front of her, facing the door.
"What's wrong?" Haruhi asked. Kaoru held up the book with English lyrics written all over the pages.
"What is this?" he asked. Haruhi's eyes widened and she looked angry.
"Why would you go through her stuff?"
"Answer my question!" Kaoru shouted back, angry himself. Everyone stared at them in shock.
"It's Amazke's songbook. Why?" Haruhi answered.
"Why are the lyrics English? And why are they so . . . horrifying?" Kaoru looked back at Amazke with desperate eyes. He was dying to know what was up with this.
Haruhi sighed.
"When Amazake was a child, she was a happy little girl. She's really not my sister, but she was truly a distant relative. That was, until both of her parents died, making my Mother and Father take her in."
Everyone looked shocked.
"She used to live in America," Haruhi continued, gazing at her sister sadly, "And both of her parents were Japanese, but they spoke English and Japanese. It took Amazke a long time to figure out how to speak in Japanese though. She had the cutest American accent I've ever heard." Haruhi smiled softly.
"Anyways, not long after a year that Amazake lived with us, she was soon kidnapped. She was only seven years old too. The man kept her in a place very far away for a few years. Three I believe. When she was ten, the police finally found her, but she was terrified and she had been abused, as well as raped several times it seemed. She was very frail and she looked like she was on the verge of death. Amazake spent a few years in the hospital and the mental hospital. She only just recently came back, but in her mind . . ."
Haruhi trailed off, wiping some tears away.
"In her mind . . . I know there's a very dark place. A place where she's scared and small. She's still just a child . . . she hasn't grown one bit mentally. Only her education is up to par. But everything else is so . . . childish and scared . . ."
Tamaki had tears in his eyes, as well as the others. It was the only time all of them were on the verge of tears.
Amazke stirred in her sleep, hugging a stuffed animal near her pillow.
"Amazake-chan . . ." Honey cried.
"My sister has been offered a record deal before . . . though her songs are so sad. She has a music video for her song you read. It's . . . sad . . ." Haruhi muttered.
"Amazake . . . I'm sorry . . ." Kaoru whispered to Amazake, hugging her. The others gathered around her. And though she looked peaceful as she slept to them . . . in her mind . . . it was a dark pit of terror.
Me: Sorry for the fail chapter! Review please! Dx
