AN: Chapter two!
Disclaimer: I obviously don't own Dark-Hunters. I do own Kyelle
Nick was staring blankly at his mother's tomb. He didn't notice the black roses that had taken root, or the woman standing behind him.
"Nicky?"
He jumped at the sound of Simi's voice, he turned to face her.
"Simi, why are you here?"
She looked at him like he should know why.
"It hurts to see you hurt like this."
Nick couldn't help himself, he smiled at her. Nick couldn't help but love her, even if she was Ash's daughter. He dropped his gaze to his mother's tomb.
"Akri sends flowers."
"What?"
"Every day, Akri sends flowers, when we're in town he visits."
"Every day?"
"Every day. Akra sends some too."
Nick couldn't believe what Ash did. He visited like he cared about her.
"Why?"
"Because Akri hurts too. He regrets not bringing her back. But now is too late."
Nick looked at the fresh flowers by the tomb. He felt Simi's hand on his shoulder. Tears sprang to his eyes. He felt another hand on his other shoulder. He looked up. It was Acheron.
"Simi's right. I'm sorry Nick."
Nick was about to snap a reply when Ash continued.
"If you promise you'll take care of her...I...have no problem with you & Simi..."
Nick realized how hard it must've been for Ash to say that & was touched by it.
"I promise." Nick said, not facing Ash, but rather smiling at the tomb, at his mother. Things were finally going his way. (AN: Lucky you. I was going to end it here.) Simi squealed & hugged Nick.
Kill them. The thought ran through his mind, making his blood run cold.
No. The one word he thought warmed him. But Ash had noticed the slight change in him between the two thoughts.
"You alright Nick?"
"Yeah."
Outside the cemetery, Ash got into his Jag. Nick got into his.
"Simi, you can go with Nick."
Ash went to Sanctuary & Nick & Simi went shopping. Ash called Kyrian, while on the phone he noticed a man looking like someone out of a western movie, & it wasn't Sundown.
AN: Who is the mystery guy? Till next time: Don't let any Daimons in!
