Chapter 4 is here! Enjoy!
Kano's PoV
It was dark and I couldn't see anything, but somehow I keep running and running but from nothing. I was looking around for a way out but there was no sign of light. I kept running one way not knowing what else to do. Suddenly, I heard crying in one way and followed the sound. I kept following until I bumped into something and looked down seeing Kido crying on the floor without a cloak. I could see her clearly but she seemed to be crying about something her clothes were all loose almost ripped as she was crying on the floor. I notice her body was pale just like the day I first experienced her condition acting up. I called out her name softly and slowly reaching towards her trying to help.
"Kido…?" "DON'T TOUCH ME!" She yelled slapping my hand away as more tears fall on her face. She lied there again hiding her face sobbing even more.
"Kano….Kano….." She was calling out my name for some reason even though I was right next to her. She maybe confusing me with someone else since it was dark here.
"Kano...help me…." She called out through her sniffs and sobs making my heart sink as I heard her cries.
I reached over to her but something stopped me. I was forced back into darkness away from Kido. I tried fighting it but it was too strong and I sank back into darkness not seeing Kido at all anymore. I was devoured by the darkness until I saw two glowing red eyes and soon a giant snake staring straight at me. The snake soon lunged and opened its mouth to devour me more whole in an instant.
After that shock, I woke up screaming from the dream I had about Kido and the snake. It made me have a bad feeling of what's gonna happen today and I got up in an instant to wash my face and get ready for school. I walked to school holding my bag over my shoulder thinking about Kido and the snake. It made me worried of what will happen to Kido today as I walked into my class. I looked out the window as class began then the teacher called us for attention. There was a new student in class, who seems like the type of show-off guys and I know that because the girls in class were already gazing at him like dog with treats.
As he was walking over to his seat he walking winking at the girls as he walked by. Good thing Kido wasn't here if he were to wink at her I might not be able to hold myself back. Already I knew I hated this guy's guts and worse of all he sits beside me. I turned my head away back towards the window looking out as the new guy walked to his seat. I continued to think of Kido until the new guy called to me. I turned my head to look at him activating my deceiving eyes and looked at him.
"Hello there." I greeted him. "Hi, I don't mean to bother you." He said smiling at me but I can tell in his eyes that he's faking it.
"Oh, it's no problem, something you need?" I asked me even though I could care less. "I was wondering you could show me around, I heard you're pretty famous around here." He said to me. I saw what he was doing he wanted to be "friends" with me so he could be famous with the girls.
"Sure we can go around after class." I said to him and I saw his face change to an actual smile but this time with more mischief in his eyes. "Great! Let's meet up after then." He said and he looked at the front of the school paying attention to todays lesson.
The bell rings for lunch to begin and I walked out of class with my bag so I could get ready of showing the new guy around even though I didn't want to. I looked around the hall looking for him but instead I saw Kido in her cloak walking down the hall with some papers in her hand. I was shocked to see her during the day since she has night class now.
"Tsubomi? what are you doing here?" I said to her then a struck of a vision of my dream of her crying on the floor hit my head.
"I was told to represent the night class since the others can't really be around people." She said bluntly as she walked past me.
I turned to look at her as she walked away then seeing the new guy walk past her towards me, but he was staring at her smirking until he soon stopped right infront of me. I swear this guy makes me sick even more through his actions to people especially Kido. He looked at me with the smirk disappearing on his face.
"So who was that person with the hood?" He said to me wondering curiously.
"No one, that person is not a normal student here." I said as I walked off showing him the school.
I don't want to tell him about Kido. I don't trust him at all and I want to keep Kido safe from this guy. I already feel disgusted just being beside this guy. He was walking around not even paying attention he was looking at the other girls who were around the hallway. Ugh.. I rather be at home then showing this guy around.
"So what's your name?" I asked him to get him to pay attention for once. "Oh, I'm Axel Banes." He said to me giving me another fake smile.
"I see, I'm-" "I know who you are, Mister Famous Shuuya Kano." He said to me trying to joke around.
I gave him a fake laugh as I continued to pretend to give him a fake smile making him think I'm having a good time beside him like "buddies" as I kept on showing him around the school. After the long time after showing Axel around I packed up my stuff and walked out of class to get home. As I walked downstairs I see Kido walking up the stairs and stopped when she saw me. She looked away as we both made eye contact and continued to walk up the stairs.
"Tsubomi wait!" I said as I grabbed her by the shoulder gently. "Listen I know you don't want us to see eachother again, but I still worry about you. I had a vision about something happening to you so please...becareful and stay away from the new guy, I don't trust him…" She said nothing to me and continued to walk up the stairs to her night class. I looked at her as she walked away and started to walk down the stairs again hoping she will be alright.
Kido's PoV
I kept thinking of what Kano said earlier as I walked down to the night class. Lost in thought I bumped into someone and my hood dropped showing my face and looked up at the person. It was the new student Kano was talking about which made me froze in fear of what Kano said about him just a few minutes ago.
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to bump you." He apologized while bowing to me.
"Ah, its no problem." I said while putting my hood up again and started to walk away again until he stopped me by grabbing my shoulder.
"Um, I'm new here and I still haven't figured my way around here, could you show me the way to the teacher's lounge?" He asked politely to me, I couldn't find a sign of him hiding anything and decided to show him to the teacher's lounge.
We headed down to the teacher's lounge as he followed me from behind. We almost made it to the room until I was pulled into a room. It was dark and I couldn't see anything but I felt my arms and legs pinned down. I suddenly saw bright lights. I looked up seeing the new guy pinning me down in the janitors room. I struggled to get him off but it was no use he was sitting on my legs. He soon gave me a dirty smirk and grabbed my cloak and tore it off me.
"I've been with many girls, but I haven't seen one like you before." He said giving a laugh as he leaned closer to me.
I tried to get away but I was trapped by his hands. Tears soon fall down my face as his face inch closer to me with his laugh getting louder and louder. "Kano…." I said under my breath hoping he would come but I only hear the guy laugh louder.
"You really think that he would come and save you? Just be a good girl and hold still." He said as he gets closer as I feel his breath on my neck giving me chills and scaring me even more.
"Kano…" I said louder still hoping he would come soon.
Kano's PoV
I somehow suddenly stopped in my tracks as I was walking home feeling that something is going on. I checked my bag seeing I left my phone in my desk and started to head back to school. I checked my watch seeing that it was around the time that Kido's night class would start and thought about her. I walked through the school hall and suddenly hear a cry of my name. The same exact cry from my dream, I turned my head towards the janitors closet and heard my name again which gave me another struck of vision seeing Kido lying down on the ground crying with her clothes almost ripped.
I balled up my fist and kicked down the door to see Axel on Kido as I see tears in her eyes of fear. Anger grew inside me as I grabbed Axel off and punched him away from Kido adding a knee to his gut afterward causing him to fall over in pain. I panted as I stared down at Axel on the ground and went over to Kido and held her up. Her cloak was ripped up but her clothes weren't which was at least a good thing. I heard an alarm sound and looked to see it was her watch alarming about her Kido's condition. She was turning pale and breathing heavily again. I hurried and I pulled her to the hallway to where there is less light and took off my uniform jacket and used it to cover her head waiting for the teachers to arrive.
"Kano…" Kido said as she was breathing heavily. "I'm sorry I didn't listen….thank you for coming anyways…" She said softly to me.
I held her close to me as we waited holding her as her breath became normal soon. "It's ok Kido, I'm glad you're safe atleast." I said to her as we continue to wait.
A few hours later, We were at the hospital again as Kido was lying on her bed with an IV in an ultra violet light room just like the day of the first time I've experienced it. I sat beside her as we both looked at each other but refusing to talk for some reason. I slowly reached for her hand and held softly as she looked at me smiling softly. I stared at Kido as she looked back at me making me use my ability to hide my blush.
"Kano I still can't thank you enough…" Kido said softly hiding her face with the sheets.
I stood up and placed my other hand on her cheek looking into her eyes as my ability was disabled. I leaned in to her putting our foreheads together looking into eachothers eyes. I'm sure Kido knew what was going to happen and we both leaned towards each other making our lips touch and held her close to continue to kiss her. We separated for a minute until I went back to kiss her again making it deeper than the last one. Moments passed as we continued kissing, Kido pushed me off as her face was red and turned away covering her lips. As I saw that her eyes were red for a second. I looked at her confused when she pushed me away from the kiss as both of our eyes were gazing red at each other.
"Sorry...I got carried away….we should stop right now.." She said as she hid her red face.
"Kido..your eyes… you have it too huh?" I said looking at her while using my ability.
She looked back at me seeing the red in my eyes and activated her ability to make invisible. I traveled my hand to find her and placed my hand on her cheek looking at her as she reappears as I touched her. She looked back at me in shock as I made her reappear. I showed her my red eyes and deactivated them to show my real side. My face was blushing red as I was looking closely to her.
"Kido...I…" I tried to speak about my feelings for her but they couldn't come out.
"It's ok Kano...I feel the same...but I want to separate so we wont hurt each other because of how different we are…." Kido said to me. Even though she understands she still doesn't want to be together after 10 years.
She looked down at herself as she looked sad at herself for saying what she said. I grabbed her hand and pulled her close kissing her and held it tight. She tried to pull away from but then gives after and gives into the kiss. I pull away from her soon after and she looked at me blushing as my face burning red and covered my mouth until my ability was activated.
"Kido, even though you want us to be separated so we won't get hurt. I will still protect you even if it still kills me..." I said to her and then kissed her again before making my way out of the room closing the door behind me. I deactivated my ability and covered my mouth blushing by kisses we done in the hospital and walked out of the hospital still holding my hand to my mouth.
Kido's PoV
I want to beside Kano but I don't know what will happen if we're close to each other again I don't the same incident that happened 10 years ago. I don't want to be the same burden like that 10 years ago. I guess I'll have to try and avoid him as much as I can now. I'm sorry Kano but please don't get hurt because of me… I don't want to be the reason you're hurt… I laid in the bed looking at the ceiling thinking of him as the night passed on.
"Kano...I love you…" I said under my breath as I remember the past before the incident and soon fell asleep in the hospital as the night falls.
