Chapter 7: Deformation Takes The Form of Memories

Kaito's POV

When Meiko screamed, I instantly went insane. I couldn't get out of my cage to save her. I swore I was going to kill Gakupo when I had a chance. And by that- I mean I WILL get a chance.

Rin and Len go insane when they find people. Add the fact that they found her in the forest and you have trouble.

When Haku and Neru poured acid on their faces, I'm guessing they went really insane. But when Gakupo and Luka trained them- they trained them with this special sense to capture people or try to take them to the circus.

I should know, I used to be Gakupo's right hand man before I was married to Meiko. When I got married, I was there a lot less, and I guess he felt like I was… testing him?

Meiko was worried about me, because she knew the line of work I was in. Then, Gakupo turned on me, deformed me, and I never saw her, Meiko, after that.

So when Gumi, the most amazing child ever, brought her to me, I was so happy. But when Lily walked in, my happiness was replaced with tons of worry and despair.

And after Rin and Len got her, I felt as if my life was over.

Later, after Miku tried to console me, Meiko came in… but she looked different.

She had the goggles, glasses or whatever they were like Miku.

She was now dressed in a red dress like Miku's. In every aspect, she was a diva like Miku- but without the horse legs.

And so, my beloved Meiko was put into the cage with Miku.

Miku gave her a smile, "Hi, I'm Miku,"

Meiko nodded, "I'm Meiko,"

Gumi came in, with red puffy eyes.

"Kaito, I- I- I'm sorry,"

"It's okay, Gumi. It's not your fault," I said.

She nodded and Gakupo came in.

Luka took Gumi's hand and I swore- I thought I saw her give me a sincere smile. To this day, I'm still not sure if she did or not.

After Luka took Gumi out, Gakupo looked at me, "So, Kaito, is this the Meiko?"

"What do you think? You backstabber,"

"How am I the back-," he stopped mid-argument.

I thought I would never see the day that Gakupo Kamui stopped arguing with anyone. Anyone.

"I'm not in the mood for this Kaito. At least you'll have your loved one,"

I didn't respond.

What did he mean by 'at least you'll have your loved one'?

Oh no. Even though Gakupo went from being my best friend to my enemy, I still hoped for his sake, that what he said had nothing to do with the night of Teto's death.

Miki's POV

I coughed again, and Piko sighed. "Miki, did you take your medication?" he asked.

I didn't answer, he knew me well enough.

"What's the point Piko? I'm going to die anyways,"

"Miki, if you don't take your meds, you will die,"

I sighed. He was one of the people who believed that I could live.

"You're right. I should take my medication,"

He sighed and took my hand, "Miki, not this again,"

"We still have to kill Gakupo, I'm not dying until I finish him,"

"Miki, you need to stop this,"

I sighed and pulled his hand off of mine before walking to my balcony.

I shivered at the temperature.

Piko walked up behind me before wrapping his arms around my waist.

"You're cold," he stated.

"Um, no duh?" I said giggling.

"Piko, I have to kill him," I said, turning around.

"He sighed and took his hands away, "Miki, just tell me why! Why do you have to kill him? Why are you so obsessed with this?"

He gripped my wrists. I winced before shouting "Because Piko!"

"Because why?" his grip tightened and I let out a cry.

"Because Gakupo Kamui killed my mother!"

That screaming took so much energy, I let out the longest and loudest cough I had ever coughed.

Everything went black as I fell over. I heard Piko scream my name before he caught me.

AND LE GASP! GAKUPO KILLED MIKI'S MOTHER!

Question of the chapter: (This should be obvious) Who is Miki's mother?
