So here we are in the second chapter, I know I originally said there would only be three chapters but I think I might have decided to draw it out a bit longer, maybe, not sure yet so feel free to drop me a line and give me your opinions.

This chapters inspiration was You by Candlebox

Disclaimer- Yeah I don't own, sad but true.

Chapter two- Only you?

Glowing grey eyes opened slowly in the environment devoid of light, not in the real world but maybe this was the dream realm. All sorts of thoughts ran through her mind, including the question of where was she? Where was her miester and how could she possible get out of this place? A small pinch to the arm and she found she was still here… how disappointing. Something caught her eye and as she stretched her arm out before her it was easy to see, her entire body looked as if it was on fire from within. Strong dainty hands slid across her torso, down smooth silky skin, everything was still there but the feeling with this glowing skin was simply exquisite. So much better than a mere mortal lover.

Before her hands slid to low something else drew her attention, a soft glimmering in the dark and it never seemed to move. Tsubaki moved slowly with stealth and caution towards the thing until it became apparent that the item was indeed a mirror. She stared at the refection of herself and noticed a large crack in the middle of the mirror with small spider like cracks unraveling from the fissure. Her hand ran across the cool glass. Why did it feel as though her warmth was slipping away?

As soon as her hand fell from the mirrors icy touch did the feeling of warmth return. This place was strange. Her arms wrapped around her body to try to get a bit of comfort and warmth. Her gaze looked to the glass for some answers before the mirror flares to life.

The images upon the surface were blurry at first and then slowly became crystal clear. The image was a scene from a few months ago, she and her miester sat on the roof tops in the cool breeze of the eve. She remembered at that moment she had been thinking of how her miester had grown through the years, he was a head taller than her now, hair still messy as ever though still somewhat calm as it brushed across his vision. His body had bulked up a bit, filled out more in the shoulders and the chest as much as his attitude had changed. He was much more laid back, having already grown out of screaming his glory and purpose to the sky.

She couldn't complain about that though seeing as it had caused her anguish and embarrassment though somehow she never strayed from his side. It had worked out in the end as she was now a death weapon, one of the few and the proud all thanks to Blackstar. She had spoken his name and as he turned to her there was a scream from nearby. She had just been about to say it, tell him of her feelings for him.

He held out his hands to her as she transformed to her default battle form before the two raced towards the sound, hopefully they would be right on time.

When the perpetrator came into sight, there was a pathetically average human male about the partners ages, huddled in a corner. An evil soul hunched above the male getting ready to strike, a dark laugh came shrilly from the creature, yes creature as it's form wasn't even remotely human, some sort of hunched back monster many lesions and scars upon its ugly hide, this would be an easy kill.

Blackstar launched himself at the creature before embedding Tsubaki in the exact right place for his body to dissolve in a black mist leaving the glowing red soul behind. He grabbed the soul in his hands to transport to Lord Death before the newly transformed weapon and miester turned to the man in the corner as he stared up at the two with awe in his eyes.

The glowing tsubaki noticed something she never had when this had happened, a pink smoke drifting from the man towards her, something she had caught the scent of but had never noticed. Even now she felt no stirrings of anything towards this man but somehow the weapon had found that the man had tugged at her heart. Her image showed a soft blush on her cheeks as Blackstar extended a hand to help the guy up. Blackstar gave the guy a cocky innocent grin the man never noticed though as he had been staring her in the eyes the entire time.

She remembered them talking for some bit of time, the three of them and they had found out the man's name was Giae and they switched phone numbers and had a date all set up for a day later before they headed home. As the partners walked home, Black star teased and teases and teased Tsubaki. She knew he was kidding but somehow in the memory she had taken it badly and snapped at him to stop. To her surprise he actually did.

"Hey Tsubaki? Before when you were going to tell me something, what was it?" He asked as the timbre in his voice took on a serious tone.

"It... I..." her face turned slightly red as she looked away for a few moments only to turn back and look him in the eye with a smile upon her face. "It was nothing, don't worry about it Blackstar."

That was the night the small rift had begun between their souls.
