Yes, the last chapter was sad. But don't worry! It gets worse. Anyhoo, onward we march!

I slowly opened my eyes. Huh? I looked at the alarm clock on my bedside table. 11:30. Huh, that's strange. Aren't I supposed to-
"Holy Crap!" I shouted, sitting up in bed. My silver hair swirled around my face. I was supposed to be at work and hour ago. And here I was in my bed, sulking. Wait, what had I been so sad about? I remembered going to the park, and coming home. Heck, am I good at pushing things out of my mind, or what?
So, I had been at work, the old dude harassed me about marshmallows, then I got told off by some old people. Some ingrate thought he wouldn't thank me for his pie, then I went to the park with... um... Yuki! That's right. I went-
Oh.
Tears welled up in my eyes. I could barely see. My eyes were puffy and red from last night already. My mirror confirmed it. I was even still in my work clothes. My nose became stuffy, and I couldn't speak right. I called my boss.
"I'b so sorry. I can't comeb to work today." I said, my stuffy nose messing with my voice. "Oh, that's alright, Sayuri-san. You sound sick. Don't worry about it. I'll have Amaya-san fill in for you." he said.
"Amaya?" I asked. That name... Yuki's cousin. "Yes. She started last wednesday, but she has a different shift than you do." he said. "OK." I replied, hanging up. What was Amaya pulling? Why would she want to work at that cafe? Oh, heck with it. Why should I even care?
I went downstairs, and turned on the TV. I had been watching some sappy shojo romance drama, when I heard a knock on the door. I got up, and walked over to my apartment door. (yes, she rented an apartment with some of her money from the cafe.) I opened it, to see Yuki. He was wearing a plain black sweatshirt and jeans. Usually he looked better than this.
He turned to face me. "You look horrible, Sayuri." he said. Now, that just made me angry. "Great." I said sarcastically. I slammed the door in his face. "You should at least let him talk to you!" Chie whispered. Tera just hovered, looking edgy. "Sayuri! Open up!" I heard Yuki yell. I jumped out the back window, Chie and Tera at my tail.
I hadn't gone far, before Mitsuki appeared. Her black hair was done up in two elaborate side buns, which had numerous curls hanging down from them. Her eyes narrowed when she spotted me. And then, for the first time, I saw her chara clearly. She had bright red hair, which was done up the same way Mitsuki's was right now. Her eyes looked evil, and she had large bat wings. Mitsuki turned in my direction.
"I won't let you take Yuki." she said in her giggly voice. I said nothing. "I'll unlock... My heart!" Mitsuki chanted. A black light surrounded her, and she came out of the transformation wearing a tight black dress and high heels, with two large batwings, and her hair was still the same. "Chara Nari: Devil's Advocate!" she and her chara chanted. I changed with Chie.
We stared at each other, neither making a move. And I knew that I would probably get beaten to a pulp in my current state. Mitsuki raised her hands. "Fires of Hades!" she yelled, a ball of fire forming on her hands. She pushed it forward in one fluid movement, which was to quick for me to dodge. Chie was suffering too, at the sight of this chara that had stolen away her love.
I didn't feel like fighting. Maybe I would just die. I would be away from all of this. Attack after attack hit me, and I didn't want to be in control any more. I didn't want to have to think about it. I didn't want to feel anything. Just think about the times Yuki and I had, and have someone else do all the work.
"That can easily be arranged." I heard a voice say in my head. Tera was all of a sudden dragged into my body, the out fit changing to a black leather suit and boots, with wolf ears and tail. A boy appeared in front of me, about Yuki's age. He was wearing what Tera usually wore: A half black half white suit. His spiky white hair was even similar. He turned to me.
"You don't have to think about this anymore, Sayuri." he smirked. My eyes went blank, as a chain wrapped around both of my wrists, connecting me to him. I didn't have to think about it. I didn't even know what was going on. All that was going on in my mind was Yuki. And that was it.
