And, if you haven't read far enough cretin parts of this chapter will NOT make sense to you… you can try to make sense of them or ignore them if you don't know what's really going on… it's not that major for this story line but it's better if you do know what's going on.
Fye moved to his room, the whole way there he wondered if Kurogane would still be in the bed… He hoped not, he was in no mood currently to explain anything and with that ninja… everything needed an explanation.
'Phew' Fye thought as he entered the room. 'It looks like Kuro rin's gone out again.' Fye found a place right near the window and sat down looking out at large tree that covered almost half the window itself.
'That tattoo' he started in his head. 'Turns out that having it removed was a hidden blessing.' Fye knew his magic well, that tattoo not only hid it but it also restricted a large amount of power, If he still had it, sending himself back to his world AND then fixing things would be impossible they would require more power then he had the ability to summon at once, without the marking possibilities were endless.
He remembered when he had first gotten the symbol placed on his back, he was only 11… That was strange in itself because normally no wizard had enough power to have a need for the marking until he was at his peak, Normal wizards peaked around their mid 30's, most of them never got the marking even then! As far as Fye knew only 2 men aside himself were using the same method and both of them were far beneath him, power wise at least, that would make him most powerful in the land.
11, age 11… that was only a couple months after his mother had died, his father and 2 brothers died long before even that. This left Fye with no home and no family… 'Destin to live the streets he told himself with a smile.'
An elderly man had given it to him… he himself was a formerly established wizard, held in captivity for many years before escaping and moving to the streets for cover. He had sensed the great power in Fye… he told the young boy that if he continued like that people would die.
Fye had no reason to hide the fact that he himself knew he was made to destroy, so he went with the strange man, Fye recalled the man babbling in a strange tongue after he had pulled Fye into a small corner behind a crumbling building, all of a sudden his back burned and the man was dead.
The burning sensation didn't leave his body for at least a few months... Each second of those months was like living in an oven, especially the first few weeks, there was also a raw sting accompanied with the burn.
It wasn't until almost 8 years later that Fye had leant the truth behind that man from Ashura o, The old man had originally been taken prisoner but then was continually tormented by the royal guards and questioned by the former king, because he was the one with power to for see the next high mage but he couldn't ever bring the image into focus. As a result he spent most of his life there. With every new generation there are 2 beings born, the one with power enough to shake the earth and another born only to detect this power and bring it into the open.
Fye understood now, the old man probably couldn't see the person in his mind clearly because he hadn't been born yet, their timing was off by almost a generation itself. That's why all those years ago that man had told him that he was 'The' power. It all made sense to him now.
"hmm" He let himself sigh… 'dwelling over the past so much in so little time, I wonder what will happen when I use my magic now… I had that tattoo for such a long time, in that country with all the books sure I used my magic but it was so minor, nothing would have come from that but this… well I'll just have to be very careful.'
He heard movement from down the stairs, big boots being kicked off and a jacket being pulled off, The sounds were to heavy for either of the kids… That meant Kurogane was back from wherever he had gone off to. Chances are he'd come straight to the room, well were else was he going to go? Fye made a quick decision that he'd rather not talk with Kuro chin quite yet and so he made a move for the room's door, he admitted to himself that it was quite childish to avoid someone like this… then again, when was he ever not childish?
Fye had just reached the door but too late, Kurogane was already there and heading into the room.
"You, where the hell did you go?" he was angry, well actually Kuro chi was always angry but this was a special kind of angry… reserved for especially annoying occasions.
"I've been here, why... was Kuro tan looking for me?" the words seemed innocent enough but the tone was questioning… damn, he was being teased again by the idiot.
"Yes, I still have questions for you." This was a mumble, he didn't want to pry… but he didn't like being left in the dark, especially when he knew just a little part of the story.
Questions, no… Fye really didn't want to answer these questions; he didn't even care what they were. He also knew he wouldn't be able to stop the questions, with any luck maybe Kurogane would have problems wording his questions so that there were loop holes that he could use to avoid an actual answer. He did that a lot now that he actually thought about it, avoiding the subject… just the same as avoiding a person, or running away. He sighed, ' I suppose I'm the same all the way around.'
"Well go ahead and ask Kuro pii, but you should also know I'm leaving tonight so this is your last opportunity." He felt almost guilty for using that as a diversion, he was going to tell him anyways and well if he used it now maybe Kuro tan would forget his dumb questions and just be distracted by the current issue.
He sat there for a good few minuets just staring at the wizard, almost as if he were absorbing the information he had just gathered, though Fye hardly seen that as a reason for 5 minuets of questionable silence. Maybe this is where he could make an exit at peace, Kuro muu seemed distracted enough for him to simply slip out the door. But as he started to stand he heard it…
"Sit back down." The voice was low, slow and angry… the combination made Fye a little nervous but then just passed it off with a wave of the hand and said.
"Aww, why so serious Kuro min?" he sounded normal again, like an idiot again and he was proud of his recovery skills.
"Damn bastard! Even now that you've decided on something important you won't even be serious for a minute. You can't go back to your world… you'll die, and I'm sure as hell not going with you." He was frustrated, after going threw so much trouble to save this man's life he was already making a decision that would get himself killed. "Without my blood, you die! Don't you realize that by now?"
He was obviously referring to the deal made with the vampire twins, True, he is now a vampire but his magic had recovered somehow and in full with some extra editions from the vampire blood. His eye hadn't grown back though regrettably, it was still covered by a black patch.
"True… without your blood, I'll die." He gave up the jokes... what was he hiding? There was nothing left to cover up so long as he knew he'd never see these people ever again. That said, just because the smile dropped didn't mean his guard did… he still wasn't going to answer any of the questions. And by no means was he going to tell Kurogane that he would die in his world by choice LONG before he died of blood thirst.
"Kuro chin..." he started again in a hushed tone. "You were the one who told me… the one who said that if you had the chance to fix something you had broke you would fix it… because that is the noble thing to do. I can fix things, it might be late in the coming but I CAN fix things, I've decided I'm going to and chances are I'll never see any of you again."
Horror, anger, sadness… all those had mixed themselves together to form the perfect expression of hate that lie upon Kurogane's face, He was confused and angry.. his head was spinning. As if this wasn't enough to begin with he was now feeling light again.
Fye watched his Friend lose color in the face and then drop falling back onto the bed.
"He fainted again. Well at least I know what's causing that now… I guess it'll stop after the visions stop, that's normally how this sort of thing works. Maybe he'll be able to answer a couple of his own questions after this one." Fye was talking to himself, he pulled the second layer of covers over Kurogane's body and left him there in a forced sleep.
AHH SPOILERS! Well some anyways.
Heh, I've had this story posted for all of what... 4 days? And already it has 6 chapters, I'm obsessed --;;
Also I'm SO SORRY! I've found so many typo's in the last couple chapters. And yes (to the person who commented on how I miss spelt supper.) I did mean supper, not 'super'.
Review if you want more, reviews make the story longer… seeing as I've already figured out 2 different ways I want it to end I could push it there quickly or extend the story with even more events. Your choice.
Thank you
