"We're going to be friends forever..." Kagome laughed, taking the hand of the pink haired boy next to her. He was still so scared, but she loved him. She really, really did. Even as he fidgeted uncertainly before squeezing her hand back.
"Is it okay? I'm allowed to have a friend? I've never had one before..."
"You don't need permission to have friends, Crona...it's okay to be afraid, but share the weight of your fears with me, and I'll help you carry them."
"My blood is black, Kagome...can you be friends with someone whose blood is black?" A black figure pulled from Crona's back and started shoving Crona around, his bubble black eyes were staring at Kagome as it beat up on the pink haired boy. "Stop it...Ragnarok, please don't hit me...it hurts...it hurts, I said stop! You'll freak Kagome out. I already know, I can't deal with it. If she leaves me because of you...I don't know how to handle it!"
Kagome's hands took Ragnarok and she brought the black thing forward before hugging it tightly. "Crona...I love all of you. Every part of you...black blood, pink hair, strange dress and Ragnarok. It's all you, and that is all I need to know, to know I will always love you, and you and I will always be friends! You are my best friend, no matter what!" Kagome pulled back and hugged Crona next. Ragnarok moved around and stared curiously at Kagome, before settling on Crona's shoulder. "I will protect you, and shield you from anyone who tries to tell you otherwise."
"You promise?"
You Promise?
Kagome laughed, "I promise."
I Promise.
Darkness fell around the two, Ragnarok disappeared back inside Crona, a shadow covered Kagome and Crona before she felt his hands fade from hers. "Crona...?" Silence fell around her, and then, from the distance, she heard a twisted cackle, "Crona?" She called out louder in the darkness and shadows. No one answered to her calling, she felt tears forming in her eyes as she glanced hysterically around her. A figure formed in the distance, she saw Crona looking back at her sadly from over his shoulder before he turned away from her and started walking away into the darkness until the shadows finally swallowed him whole. Kagome moved to run towards him, reaching out to grab him, "CRONA!?"
END DREAMSCAPE!
Kagome shot forward, hand outstretched as if reaching for someone, but no one was there. No one...no one was there. She felt pain coursing through her body, no doubt from broken and crushed bones, but she didn't care. She was alone. '...Crona...it was never you who needed me...It was me...who needed you.' Tears fell endlessly from her eyes as she stared sadly at her outstretched hand. He was out of reach, she couldn't see him anymore. Her dear Crona...and it was all her fault. "Had I fought harder, had I tried harder, or done something different...ANYTHING! ANYTHING WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER! I could have died fighting to protect him, but he's gone...he's gone! CRONA~!" She cried out louder, her hands fisting in her shirt as she pulled her knees into her chest and laid her head against her knees. Shaking her head, she heard the sound of a door opening and turned her eyes to see a stone door opening. Realizing at that moment, that she was not safe. Her tears ceased, if only for the time being, as she watched a man with red hair walk into the only light that was provided by a small window in the stone bedroom. "..."
"Oh, please...don't stop talking on my account. I'm curious, who is Crona?"
"..." Kagome looked away from the red head, he moved closer. Hands in his pocket, he turned a bit and leaned against the wall of her room, just beside her. Still, she said nothing.
"He must have been important to you...I'd wager...something akin to family?" He asked, genuinely curious, and genuinely seeking information.
She turned her eyes to the light seeping in from the small window, "..."
"When you arrived, Kid mentioned that it looked like a pretty big battle had gone on, but you were alone, and with marks caused from constriction around your body. Tell me, who were you fighting? Who were you...protecting?"
Kagome looked up sharply, hearing the mockery in his voice, she glared, forcing herself to stand.
"Whoa! Hey, hey! You have broken ribs, and a cracked spinal cord! Lay back down!" The man tried to force her gently back into the bed, but she knocked his hands off of her.
"My friend...my best friend...my brother...she took him! I will get him back!" Her soul sparked dangerously around her, causing a sharp pain to shoot through her body. She dropped to her knee and clutched her ribs carefully as her soul forced her down. The guy in front of her dropped down beside her, a hand on her shoulder, another on her arm, as if ready to help her up should she try to stand. Shaking her head, she muttered softly under her breath. "I know I didn't protect him...even though I had promised...I promised him...I promised him and still..."
A pair of warm arms pulled her in gently, and Kagome found herself being hugged warmly by the red haired man in front of her. Her eyes wide in shock, her tears returning in fervor as she continued to think of Crona...and of the Witch who'd taken him from her. She couldn't do anything to get him back...not yet, she couldn't...but she would get him back. 'Medusa...I don't know if this Snake inside of me relays my thoughts, words or feelings, but everything is the same...I will come for you, I will find you...and...I will kill you!'

Me: So this is how it's all going to work. I recently wrote down the names of ALL OF MY UNFINISHED STORIES, on pieces of paper, folded them and put them in a container. I shake it, and then draw one. WHATEVER I DRAW gets written, and then placed back in the container. I can't redraw. Now...I WILL UPDATE FOR SURE! Next up is "Shy Boy"! See you all soon!
