Chapter 14
Last Moments
Yin's POV
At last, me and my friends made it out of the desert... we traveled through far and harsh places... i forgot how many days and nights we have been traveling... but that doesn't matter now... what bothers me is Lee's behavior is making huge changes.. I often see him arguing with himself during the nights... and he wouldn't try to fight when we got in trouble during the days... He became quiet and he now prefers to be alone.. he never hugged me nor kissed me again... I'm starting to get worried, also about myself.. that power i fell inside me is too hard to control its almost like its taking over me... what is happening to me..? and Lee....
Miley's POV
I am worried sick about Yin, and the times she almost unleashed that 'demon' it was always like it was begging for help.. but it always goes away when i ask whats wrong... and im mostly concerned about Lee... I remember the day when he and I first met... I was about to sing that time when he suddenly appeared... He was obviously nervous to sing with me.. but he managed to pull it off... Its funny, I feel like i knew him my whole life... But now... I feel as if i don't know him anymore... One night, while i was sleeping, he almost tried to kill me.. I was surprised when i awoke.. But, even him, was surprised.. as if he didn't know what he was doing... after a few more nights i can hear him shouting... its like he was fighting with someone.. The happy-go-lucky Lee had vanished and been replaced by someone who doesn't know how to smile, someone who... needs someone to help him... I've always.. treated Lee like my own brother....
Lee's POV
...My friends are beginning to notice me changing... I need to be away from them... before i mindlessly kill them... Fade doesn't seem to notice yet, or does he..? Yesterday, I tried to ignore Yin... Its best that we don't get close anymore... it would endanger her own life.. Even Miley, i had to be away from her all the time... i could never forgive myself for almost killing her... Every night i can hear that damn voice in my head... I need to protect my friends... from me... surely, Yang and Yuck would forbid me to see Yin if they knew that i was a murderer.. Miley didn't tell anyone about what i did... and Fade, he also kept it as a secret... but sooner or later.. will i have to tell Yin..? No.. our friendship, and trust will break like a shattered glass if i do.. but in this state of keeping a secret from her... do i trust her myself?
Author's POV
Lee and his companions have entered a frozen land...
"The assassin's lair isn't far now.." Fade exclaimed
"Yang.. Yuck.. Hollow.. here we come.." Yin looked at the distance
Lee remained silent... he was thinking deeply "will i kill the assassin if we find him?" Then Lee stopped.. "why the hell am i always thinking of killing..?!!" He screamed in his head...
"Because you were created to kill.." The Voice whispered
"no.. I have a different purpose!!" Lee yelled..
"Lee..? were you listening to what i said?" Fade asked with doubt
"huh?" Lee replied with an awkward face...
"Nevermind.."
"Lee... are you okay..?" Yin asked
"I'm fine.." Lee responded without looking at her...
"No.. somethings wrong.. why wont you tell me..?"
"I said I'm fine..."
"Please.. tell me.."
Lee did not respond... He started walking away...
"Hey!" Yin ran to him "Whats wrong with you?!" Yin grabbed Lee's arm
"Let go off me.." Lee demanded...
"No!"
"I said.. Let Go!!" Lee shoved Yin.. making her fall on the ground... Then Lee looked away
"Lee! What is wrong with you?!!" Miley questioned as she helped Yin get up
"Why do you even care?!" Lee yelled...
Miley was silenced... she picked Yin up without saying a word... she looked at Lee... it was hard to notice.. but there was regret in his eyes... Miley looked down..
"anyway, we should be on our way.." Fade broke the silence trying to change the topic..
"right" Yin and Miley walked behind him...
"Lee... lets go.."
Lee started walking behind them.. with his hands in his pocket... he didn't say a word...
after a few miles
Yin was shivering.. she was getting cold... then she fell on her knees.. freezing... Then, she felt a jacket being placed on her... Yin looked up to see that Lee gave her his jacket...
"are you alright..?" Lee asked
"Thanks to you!" Yin smiled at him.. but Lee replied with an emotionless face...
"Yin.. I'm sorry about earlier..." Lee couldn't even look at her in the eye..
"Its my fault Lee...i was asking too many questions.." Yin smiled at him again, this time.. Lee gave a very faint smile...
and with that.. they started walking again...
It was getting late...
Lee was quiet the whole time.. as if he wasn't even there..
Miley and Yin tried to often talk to him.. but Lee just replied with a gentle smile...
then, after a few more miles they reached a hill...
"wait!" Fade stopped
"what is it?" Yin asked
"do you hear that..?"
"hear what..?"
"..it just must've been my imagination.."
Lee didn't tell it.. but he heard something too..
On the top of the hill..
"Lee is finally here.." Then this person hit the ground with his fist that made a huge quake...
"Whats Happening?" Miley asked nervously
"The ground is shaking!!" Yin replied
"Everyone! Get away from the hill as fast as you can!" Fade ordered
as Miley, Yin and Fade tried to ran.. Yin suddenly slipped
"Yin!" Miley was already far from her.. "I have to help her!" Miley ran back to Yin
"damn.." Fade said as he teleported to where Yin was.. the ground was still shaking.. Fade could hardly keep his balance..
"Leave me!" Yin's foot was stuck in the snow..
"We wont!"
Then she heard snow falling at a high speed from the hill...
Yin closed her eyes.... was this the end?
She tried to open her eyes.. the last thing she saw was.. Lee... in front of all of them trying to stop the snow from swallowing them all... but.. It was Useless....
and the rest..
was darkness...
"You're weak.. Trying to use yourself to protect someone else... Pathetic..."
"i have no regrets... even if my life was on the line.." he said as he walked around...
"But, you should know that you will be the one to kill them all in the end.."
"No.. i might have almost Killed one of them.. but i wont ever do that again!"
"HAHAHAHA! You sure of yourself, little Lee?"
"...I control myself, not you... and when i say i wont.. I wont!"
"Its hopeless to resist Lee..."
"SHUT UP!!!"
"AHHHHHHH!!" a female voice screamed
Lee opened his eyes to see what is was.... His face turned Pale.. He couldn't believe what he was doing.. His hands were locked tight on Yin's neck making her lose the ability to breath...
Lee immediately let go of Her...
"*cough* whats happening to you..?" Yin gasped for air..
"I.. I..." Lee couldn't speak.. "I'm so sorry.. i.. I didn't mean it!"
Yin looked at him gently.. "I know that Lee.."
"...Yin.. can i ask a favor..?"
"sure! What is it?"
"If i ever kill a lot of people.. i want you to be the one who kills me..."
Yin was surprised.. It was just all of a sudden...
"Lee.. I'm sorry, but I cant.. Not in my life will i try to kill you.."
"Yin.. Its okay.. I understand.." and then Lee hugged Yin tight... "I'm losing myself... this could be the final moment for me.. to be with you.." a tear fell from Lee's face...
"don't say that... I'm sure we'll have more moments together!" Yin tried to cheer him up...
Then Lee let go of Yin... then there faces got closer... and closer... but when it was only an inch away.. Lee stopped himself... "I'm sorry Yin.."
Yin didn't speak as well, they were both quiet...
"Hey.. where are we, anyway?" Lee asked breaking the silence
"That avalanche separated us from Miley and Fade.. even i don't know where we are.."
"Oh.. I see..." Lee got up on his feet "we should look for them..."
"Right!" and both of them made there way...
after a few miles of walking...
Lee's POV
as i looked at her.. she was already exhausted... i looked around.. still nothing but snow... where are the others... damn! Ive got to find some shelter before Yin and I freeze... but where? Were in the middle of the snow... as i repeated these questions within myself.. i heard something... something was there... watching us.. could it be Miley, or Fade..?
"whoever you are... show yourself!" I demanded...
In an instant.. this figure came out and attacked Yin... Yin tried to fight back.. but this figure was fast... it then attacked me from the back... I saw that he was taking Yin as he was about to leave.. it was something i wasn't gonna let it do.. I immediately grabbed its arm.. and saw that it was...
"Your.. The black assassin!" I was shocked... but i cant let him get away with Yin!
"you call me an assassin? But you yourself are also one.." He told me
"what do you mean..?" I asked suspiciously
"didnt you kill countless people..? People who kill others are considered assassins..."
"how did you--?" I was surprised that he knew..
"you used your dark power to kill them, didn't you?"
"what?!"
"as i suspected.. and you call me the black assassin, without considering yourself one too.."
"we are nothing alike!" I took out my daggers but just as i was about to stab him.. he and Yin.. disappeared...
see ya next time!
