Chapter 6: The Past is Never Over

Luka's POV

When I woke up from my horrible nightmare, it was 3:30 am. I sighed and looked at Gakupo who was sleeping peacefully. I got up and got changed into normal clothes.

Tonight I was going for a walk.

I figured she could handle it and continued my walk out of the forest.

Why do I always have that same nightmare?

If I could rewind time, Luki never would have died. I would've saved him.

But, that's one thing no one has control over, I suppose.

Let me explain in greater detail.


My brother's name was Luki. Luki Megurine. He was two years older and I looked a lot like him, except I was a girl.

He was very protective over me and we were as close as twins.

Anyways, one night, after I had moved into Luki's apartment, I heard music play. It was soothing, and so I followed it, mindlessly. I didn't know what came over me.

I stupidly walked into the forest and saw two people waltzing- Haku Yowane and Neru Akita.

They gave me wide smiles and pulled me into their trap.

A man with purple hair, Gakupo Kamui, held out his hand.

I'm ashamed to say I was instantly captivated and recklessly took his hand. As he led me through the forest, I heard a scream. I was startled. It sounded exactly like Luki when Gakupo pulled me into a tent.

I screamed as I could feel Luki's pain. A blue haired man, Kaito, put his hand over my mouth.

They led Luki into the tent. They poured acid on his face, and I screamed with him. Gakupo wrapped his arms around my waist.

I was incredibly frightened, and I was used to Luki protecting me. But.. Right now he was in more danger than I was. But soon enough, they stopped pouring acid on Luki's face as a girl with red pigtails that looked like drills came in.

She gave a menaichal laugh and took Luki. I screamed again. Kaito's hand was still over my mouth and Gakupo's arms were still around my waist. I fought them off and ran towards Luki.

The red-head turned and glared at me.

A man behind her who had the same shade of red hair and eyes pinned me to the ground.

Luki shrieked in agony.

I pushed the man off and tried to grab Luki's hand when the same man picked me up and threw me over his shoulder.

They took me to a different tent where a girl- no, boy was in a cage. He had long reddish hair. I thought he was a girl, but I knew I was wrong.

They unlocked him and the girl spoke, "Ritsu! Kill them. If Gakupo gets hold of them, god knows what will happen,"

Ritsu sighed, "Yes, Teto,"

He took me and Luki into another tent. I knew this was the circus I'd heard so much about.

He strapped Luki onto a table. It was just like the movies- they were going to pretty much saw him in half.

I looked away, sobbing uncontrollably when Ritsu pulled the lever.

And just as fast as Luki screamed, Gakupo bounded into the room. He pulled me closer to him.

But, Luki was gone.

I fainted when I looked at Luki's body. Gakupo caught me.

When I woke up, Teto and her brother? Were tied up. I knew one thing for sure- Gakupo had saved me.

"I can read your mind, Luka Megurine," Teto said.

I looked around and saw Ritsu in his cage. "You stupid, stupid, girl," her brother said to me.

"You were instantly captivated by Gakupo. You never fall in love with Gakupo," he said.

"All he does is break hearts!" Teto shrieked. She laughed menachally again.

Gakupo stared at me, and I felt heat flush to my face.

Okay, so I had a little crush. Why was that so bad?

"Because Gakupo's the one who runs this circus! He's the reason your brother is gone!" Teto screamed.

I shook my head in disbelief. "Liar!" Ritsu shouted.

Teto grinned and pushed a button with her foot, and Ritsu was shocked. He screamed and Gakupo spoke, "You are a liar. You're the reason Luki is gone. Why Teto? Was it because I broke up with you for Luka?"

I almost blushed but instead, I fought it off.

"No! It's because she's incredibly powerful! Without him, she won't be as strong!"

Gakupo put me down gently and went over to her with a sword.

He raised it over her head. "You're a horrible person, Teto Kasane. I'm glad I have the pleasure of killing you,"

"WELL!" she shouted. "If you two ever have an heir, I WILL CURSE THEM ETERNALLY! WHAT HAPPENED TO LUKI WILL HAPPEN TO THEM!" she laughed histerically and maniacally and Gakupo pushed the sword down on her head with immense pressure.

But something came out of her body- her soul.

It went into me.

I was now a "descendent" of Teto Kasane, the bitch that killed my brother.

Gakupo ran to my side and Ted disappeared. As it turns out, Ted was a clone of Teto.

I became part of Gakupo's circus. Yes, we did fall in love. I did marry him- but it was in secrecy.

Years later, we had Gumi. Why she had green hair I'll never know.

I have to find a way to save her.


I walked into the old tent, looking for someone.

"Ritsu," I said.

Ritsu smiled at me from his cage, "Hello, Luka," he said.

"Do you know if I can save Gumi?"

"I'm so sorry, but you can't save Gumi,"

I put my head into my hands.

"She will have to die. And one more thing Luka,"

I looked up and tried to restrain myself from crying.

"You have to kill her with your own hands,"

I would have fallen into the floor if someone hadn't caught me.


OH NOEZ! LUKA HAS TO KILL HER OWN DAUHGTER!

Question of the chapter: Who caught Luka when she fainted? Why does Luka have to kill Gumi?
