DISCLIMER: I don't DN ANGEL or any characters related with DN ANGEL. DN ANGEL belongs to its respected creator (© Yukiru Sugisaki the creator of DN Angel). I only Lyra Riiko, my OC'S and the story idea.
Inu: So I know, that this posted kinda late like. But I got a good reason why: during last week, I only got limited time to go to the library to update the story chapters, due to my grandparents being out of town *and it was mostly raining a lot, so I couldn't go out a lot when it rains or otherwise I would have been drenched and soaked…* (also, I was having a bit of a rough time and not wanting to write anything for a while)
Lyra: So, what does that have to do with anything?
Inu: Well, I take the bus sometimes and when the weather's bad, the bus is always so and late…*so I would have been waiting forever for the bus to come…*
Lyra: I see…so, you just said home and wrote stuff there?
Inu: Yep, basically. Well, anyway guys, in this chapter, we pick off on what happened in the cliffhanger of the last chapter…so, let's get the chapter started shall we? *also, there will be a bit of some memory flashbacks in this chapter, so just to let you know…*

Chapter 22: Lyra Meets Yuki…again…
Lyra felt herself floating in a darkness like space, as she didn't know what had just happened. Her mind kinda felt a bit fuzzy as she tried to remember what had happened.
As she was trying to think, she didn't hear the soft footsteps of someone coming over to her. But as the footsteps got closer, she heard them and turned her head to see who it was.
"Who's there?..." She said, as she noticed a figure that looked so familiar. "Wait…are you…?"
––––
A familiar figure with long hair of dark amethyst purple with small little strains of whitish tint, hidden within almost invisible like, shining in little strains throughout. She had a mixture of purplish-light bluish colored eyes, that shown a bit of mystery to them, as she looked to be hiding many secrets within…
Lyra stared at the figure, as she blinked a few times, thinking that the person in front of her was just a figment of her imagination. But after a few times of blinking, she saw that it was no illusion and that the person in front of her, was real.
"It's you…you from before…" Lyra said to the figure as some bits of some lost memories were starting to come back to her for some reasons, in bits and flash images, as they weren't making any sense to her. "Your…Yuki…the girl who's Dark's sister…"
"I see you remember my name, Lyra. That makes me happy that you remember me, after our little last encounter…" Yuki said in a soft voice as she looked at Lyra with her purplish-light bluish colored eyes, with a little look on sadness in them. Lyra didn't know why she was giving her a look like that, but she kept the thought to herself, not wanting to go into an awkward moment time…
"So, what is this place? And why am I here?" Lyra asked the girl Yuki as she looked around the place as she had a tiny look of confusion on her face.
"What is this place that you ask? Well, as far as I know, it's what we call a 'crystal entrapment'. It's only used for trapping and imprison people who committed crimes, and could only be used by someone who was skilled in black magic arts." Yuki said as she started explaining a bit of what this place was.
As she was explaining, Lyra started to remember what she had learned from the story that Dark had told her, as she guessed who those 'people' might be, who could use the black magic arts skills…"
…
"…Even though in our world it was set in our laws that it was forbidden of our kind to learn those types of magics, the beings of light secretly learned them and used them without anyone knowing…."
"The beings of Light, the Rulers of Sunlight… The Clan of Hikari's...right?" Lyra said as Yuki nodded her head at the girl. Yuki looked at Lyra for a second, as if she was trying to figure out something in her mind. Then, after a few seconds of looking, she started to speak to Lyra again.
"…Let me guess, you can't remember all of the things, my brother said to you?" Yuki asked, as Lyra stared at her with wide eyes, wondering how she knew that. Yuki gave her a smile before, continuing again. "Your probably wondering how I know this? Well, to put it simple…"
"…I am you. I am the other you, sleeping inside your soul. I have known everything about you, since before you were born and have been watching over you, since the beginning…"
Now, things were starting to make a little more sense, as Lyra was listening and learning all this new information from Yuki. While she was listening, she didn't notice Yuki had reached out her hand and lightly touched Lyra's hand with her own.
"Let me help you remember….Look and see….what you have lost….let the memories return again and stay within your mnd…" Yuki said softly, as a small bit of power hit Lyra's mind and she was starting to remember again, the memories of the story that dark had told her before.
But this time, it felt like these memories were more real felt and wasn't gonna be just like a vision image this time…
––––
The beings of Light, the Rulers of Sunlight, were always strong and wanted to see things through to the end. But even though they had the white wings of an Angel, they all had the souls of devils, each one more cunning and devious than the other.
They used their lies and tricks, to trap their victims in their evil deeds and spells, as they watched each innocent soul be bound into the darkness of their power auras.
Even though they went by as Beings of the Light, they also went by another name, The Clan Light user or The Clan of Hikari's...
But every side of a coin as an opposite, so the beings of Light also had an enemy that they didn't like...
They were the beings of Night, the Rulers Darkness, or as some people would call, the arch-nemesis of the Light. They were a lot better and more respected throughout the human world and the world of spirits, since they tried to fix all the damage that the beings of Light did or tried to do.
Like their namesake, they only worked at the time of darkness and always were after whatever the Hikari Clan members would do, to interrupt the balance of their opposing sides.
And just like the Hikari's, they went by as Beings of the Night, they also went by another name, The Clan of Night user's or The Clan of Niwa's...
Even though both sides were enemies, the Hikari Clan, the Clan of Light Users and the Niwa Clan, the Clan of Night Users, they were still the two most powerful leader of each side and still needed to settle their differences about each other, but nothing ever seemed to work...
Since both parties had hated each other since ancient times and wanted to see the other destroyed, one way or the other...
Two leaders of each clan decided to make a deal, so both the spirit and human world wouldn't be destroyed in their hating rivalry battle.
The deal that they made was this:
Once a month, they would have a week of none fighting against each other, to settle any matters or troubles, allowing a bit of time for peace amongst the clans. They would meet in a secure location, either in the human world or spirit world, depending on where the month placed it at.
But one time, one of the clan members, decided to end the small-temporary truce, since she was a lover of violence and bloodshed...
And wanted to see a certain someone, die by her hand...
––––
Lyra squeezed her eyes like she was in pain from a headache, as she let out a tiny little groan, from receiving the memories again. Yuki felt a tiny bit of guilt from having the girl receive these memories a second time. When she had gotten them the first time, it was only told through a story-memory spell, so it wouldn't have been so painful like this.
But this was different-
since it was done through contact and in this crystal-entrapment spell, it was gonna a little painful and that since it was her doing the contact for the memories, she couldn't help the guilty feeling that she was feeling at the moment…
"I'm sorry. I forgot to say how painful it was, when this is performed, but I tried to make it as less painful as it usually is…" Yuki said, as she waited till she thought that Lyra was okay and not feeling any more pain, at the moment. "If you want me to stop allowing me to let you receive the memories, just say the word and I will stop…"
But Lyra shook her head, as she somehow knew that whatever was going on, needed to be done and that she should just bear through whatever pain that would come with it…
"It's okay. I'm tougher than I look, so whatever you need to do, just do it and get it over with. I may not have a clear good guess of what's going on, but I bet that the longer you delay, the more it will hurt?" Lyra asked, as Yuki said nothing, proving Lyra's question right.
"…okay, the next memory you will receive, will give you the strength, of what you need to do and how to fight off what you need to fight…" Yuki said in a gentle tone of voice, trying to make it seem like it was gonna try and be as painless as she was gonna try and make it be, as she sent another small bit of power into Lyra's mind, as the memories hit her mind again.
As the memories entered Lyra's mind again, she saw the next set of memories, as this was the one, that would set her emotions into a new mixed of feelings…
Feelings of anger, rage and hated, for the person who would soon become her enemy…
––––
"None of that is any of your business, so can you just please, leave me alone..." Yuki said as she started to walk away from the Hikari women. But she didn't get far as she felt her arm being roughly grabbed by her nemesis.
She turned around and stared into the burning eyes of deep red from the being of light. Her skinned glowed like she was covered in sunlight, as she glared angrily at Yuki, having a feeling of wanting to rip her throat out.
"Will you let me go? I don't like being grabbed like this, you know..." Yuki said calmly as she wasn't the type of person to get angry easily.
"No way! I don't get to have much time with you, and would like to rough you up a bit, since I've been getting so stressed out lately..." Saiyuri said as held on tighter to the girl's arm. Yuki tried to pull her off as best she could, but Saiyuri had a strong grip on her arm, as if she was made entirely of strong steel.
"Let me go, I mean it, let me go!" Yuki said, as she was starting to get annoyed at being around Saiyuri. But Saiyuri just gave her a grin and kept her iron grip on Yuki's arm.
"I'm not gonna let go, not until I see you squirming in pain and whimpering in fear..." Saiyuri said softly to her nemesis, as she gripped even harder, as small black and purple bruise started to form on Yuki's wrist, from being held onto so tight and for so long.
The young night clan girl let out a small cry of pain at having her arm being held like this, making a small smirky smile come across Saiyuri's face. That is the exact sound that she wanted to hear from the girl, the sound that she wanted to hear for so long...
"That's it. That's the sound that I wanted to hear for so long from you...the sound of pain..." Saiyuri said softly again, as she was starting to get into the mood. She felt her smirk starting to grow, as she threw Yuki to the ground hard, making her land hard on her back.
Yuki let out a small yell of pain as she hit the ground hard. A small shockwave of pain entered her body, from her being thrown by Saiyuri like that.
"Why don't we see how long you can last, before I hear you start screaming?" Saiyuri said as she went over to the night clan girl and put her sharp high heeled boot on her wrist. With one quick action, she stepped on her wrist hard, making Yuki's face show signs of pain, but no screams come from her mouth.
It looked like she was tougher than she looked. Guess she had to step up her game a bit...
Saiyuri grinned wickedly as she started to kick Yuki hard in the side and a few times in the stomach, trying to get a reaction from her. But Yuki was using her stubborn side, as she glared angry eyes at Saiyuri, feeling an angry fire settling in her soul. And she only let her stubborn side loose, when she knew that someone was doing something wrong and wanted her to give in to something evil, but she would show them that side...
...To prove to them that she would never give in to them... no matter what.
She knew that she couldn't attack her, but she knew that if she did, it would upset the truce-treaty deal that both party sides have agreed to...
But Saiyuri knew that and she wanted it to end. And the only way for that to be done, is with either a fight between the two clans during the week of peace-truce or with the death of one that is unexplained and killed either in the human world or spirit world...
So she was trying to make that happen, by trying to beat up Yuki so badly, that the truce-treaty would be ripped apart for the call of vengeance...
"C'mon now. I need to hear some screams from you or otherwise I might lose my temper right here and now…" Saiyuri said as she continued to kick Yuki, now adding punches and hits to her beating up session. She kept going, even though it was sending searing amounts of angry flaring and hurtful waves of pain at Yuki.
But she knew that she couldn't stop until one of them gave in and it looked to her that Yuki wouldn't have much longer until she gave in to Saiyuri's statement or her body gave out from being beat up so much, whichever came first.
––––
And with that, the first step in the connection had been completed and the next step was about to take place.
"Saiyuri….that she-devil of the Hikari Clan…" Lyra said, as slowly opened her eyes and looked at Yuki with a bit of a small little fire glaring in her eyes, from receiving the memories that she needed to have. "…She has caused so much trouble and even though she had received pity and forgiveness from her rivals, she still…she still...does all this chaos and trouble…'
"I know, Lyra. She should get the cause of her actions soon. I can help you with that, but the only problem is, that while trapped here and not in a physical body at the moment, there's not much that I can do…" Yuki said, as she looked down, feeling that this might be a little bit hard for them to get out of here.
A few seconds passed, as Lyra spoke up, with an idea, that kinda surprised Yuki and caught her off guard.
"…What are you talking about, about not having a 'body to use'? You say that I am you, so….why don't you use me…you my body…"
…
"…Use my body, to try and get us the hell out of here…." Lyra said, as a smirk came across her face. "Let's teach that stupid little twat, the meaning of 'payback is a bitch'…
Inu: so, looks like something is gonna go down…
Lyra: yep, gonna go get that idiot and give her what's coming to her…
Anyway please support and review so till next time:
