I DONT OWN SHUGO CHARA
WHEN DEATH RETURNS:
Chapter 13- Tragic events
(Ikuto pov)
There was a guard outside the door angel decided to take him while I continued on. I reached the door and busted in, only to be stopped in my tracks. Amu was being pinned to the bed with a man all over her. Her eyes held tears, my anger grew to an extent I didn't even know was possible.
I drew my sword, it was only then that they had noticed my presence. I noticed how Amu had a collar around her neck it was the same as the one she had worn in my dream. Something felt off yet I couldn't figure out what, so I shook it off and prepared to fight. The man stood and chuckled as he to pulled his sword out.
I left one side of my sword shielded still I would use it to block his attacks. "I won't let you have my Amu" with that I charged into battle, are swords clashed as we struggled to over power the other. I jumped back as his sword was about to push through my attack, swiftly I dodged his blade as he to dodged mine. Are swords would clash and we would dodge yet we had yet to get a swipe at the other.
My determination grew with each second I took a swipe at him he dodged it but I had managed to get his arm slightly. He stared at the blood then charged Amu was standing in the corner I was about to tell her to run when Yoru attacked, this time I wasn't fast enough and his blade had managed to slice my leg. The wound stung but was not deep, I jumped back into the battle focusing only on protecting and winning for Amu.
(Lulu pov)
I was growing tired and so was Emiko many times I had attempted to explain, only to be cut off by her attacks. I did not attempt to attack her only to block her attacks. I dropped my bow and stood as she came charging at me, I would make her listen no matter what. I saw her eyes change to horror as her blade went through my stomach.
I winced from the pain but made no move to get caught me as I fell to the ground, her eyes watery and filled with confusion. "Why you could...could have dodged that?" I smiled at her, I had really missed her. "Because I needed you to listen to me."
She held my hand as I explained everything to her. Her tears did not stop and she did not interrupt. Kairi came in just as I had finished he smiled sadly and picked me up. "Emiko I believe we have a mission to finish."
She nodded and smiled sadly at me before running off to help the others. "Lulu...I'll take you to go get fixed up" I put my hand to Kairi's cheek. Even breathing hurt I knew this was one wound that could not be fixed, I was to exhausted to heal it on my own. I shook my head slightly the chill of death creeping up on me.
"No my dear friend it's to late for me, promise you will help the others." He seemed reluctant to listen but nodded, "I promise." Kairi had been by my side since I was 3 we grew up together. "Good now leave me here and go" I smiled up at him as he layed me down on the floor, I saw the sadness in his eyes so I gave his hand one last reassuring squeeze, before I allowed darkness to envelop me.
(Amu pov)
I had to stop them, I just didn't know how. I watched as they both fought fiercely calling upon my weapon I blocked both of their attacks. They both jumped back as I stood in the middle, "Yoru please stop this. I can not allow you to hurt m friends, I know your not a bad person so please drop your weapon." He looked as if he were wavering whether to or not. I did not break contact with his eyes I dodged his sword as he charged at me. My eyes saddened knowing he had made his choice, I turned to see his sword about to hit Ikuto once again I blocked it.
Only this time I didn't hesitate as my scythe pierced through him. He fell to the floor though I knew he was not dead, grabbing Ikuto's hand I pulled him into a run we ran through the halls looking for a way out. I paused pushing Ikuto behind me he tried to pull me around the corner but I wouldn't budge. Yoru was charging I noted that his wounds had healed leaving the blood stain and hole in his shirt as the only sign that he had been wounded before.
He seemed slightly weaker as he moved to attack. His sword was about to hit me when I was pushed from the way. I turned to see Yoru picking Ikuto up and throw him across the hall into a wall. He then turned toward me this time we both ran at each other, my scythe had turned into a sword.
My eyes widened as pain shot through me, I locked my eyes with Yoru whose expression mirrored mine. Are swords had gone through each other, Ikuto was by my side as Yoru layed next to me he was too weak to heal. I was slowly wielding my wound to close Ikuto held my hand with tears in his eyes. I knew my wounds were healing swiftly, I turned to Yoru I didn't want it to come to this.
I was about to apologize when he spoke, "Amu... I'm sorry." With that the light in his eyes died and I knew he was gone. Standing Ikuto helped me I felt slightly weak still but assured him it was fine. Tears were in my eyes but I would not let them fall. I was saddened by what things had come to but was glad Ikuto was alright. He explained that we had to find the others so we went to go find them.
(Airi pov)
Kairi had left me and told me to get out if I could, but I knew he would need my help. I sensed Mizuki near by and instead ran to her, I found her fighting against 4 guards. Immediately I jumped in, she was transformed into a tiger and paused when she saw me. After a moment we went back to fighting the 4 demons in front of us.
This needed to end now before it was too late. Once we had destroyed the guards she transformed back and I hugged her. She acted as if it was nothing but I saw the small smile on her lips. I had missed Mizuki, we were running to find the others when I stopped.
Looking through a door we saw Yoru laying there, I ran to him despite knowing it was too late. Mizuki stood in the door way as I kissed his forehead and closed his eyes. "I told you this would end badly dear brother." Despite my tears I quickly joined Mizuki to continue on, only taking one last glance at my big brother before turning and carrying on. My heart clenched but I knew that he would be happier now that he had joined his love. I suppose it was loosing her that had drove him to madness. He was never a bad person...he just made bad choices.
