The worst

"Leave him. Don't kill him. He's half blind now," Misery said. She crawled over to her older brother.

"You should know that...I never forgot you. I never...forgot the Salem I knew," she gasped, "But you've broken every... gasp every single dream...every dream I've...ever...had-" she coughed pretty badly- "I wish you'd never left..."

"If you hate me so badly why are you keeping me alive?" he asked.

"Because that's worse. This way, you can live with the memory of your sister fading away...the...last time she ever talked...to...you," she coughed hard, and some blood came up. Her blood was on the ground, "I'm...never...going to talk...to you...again...or even...acknowledge your...existence...because you...went and...said you were dead...and that's too...much...for me..." she fell down onto the ground in a coughing fit, "You will remember me..."

She collapsed and faded away from Mizuki and Salem. Mizuki stared at Salem. Then he stood up.

"I'm going to find her," he said.

"If anyone sees you, they'll throw you right back in jail," Salem said.

"Does it look like I care?"

Misery found that she was still laying there. There was blood everywhere. She blinked and stared at the sky. It was about midnight. Slowly tears streaked down her cheeks.

"I'm...going to...miss...this all," she sputtered.

Mizuki ran through the village looking for someone. He found someone.

"Help me," he gasped.

"Mizuki?" the anonomys ninja asked.

"Worry about me later. I need someone to find someone else! Forget about me for now, then do whatever!" he snapped.

Misery is human. Humans need to be needed. If they're not, then they can't be living. That's how it works. So when someone isn't needed, then their life is gone. They can't live without being needed. It's just impossible. She needed to be loved, and now that she was, she was okay. She was able to live. But with love comes the risk of betrayal, which she experienced. In order to be betrayed, she had to love. But she's fine with the consequences. That is the risk of love.

Now she knows what human is. Human is what she is. She's human.

And all humans meet there end...

So what's going to happen? Did Misery just die? And will the question of how Mizuki saved her life be answered? (If you look closely, you'll see it.) I'm not telling.

As for why this has been so late, I've been very busy with school being almost over. I'm so tired from all this dang school. But in the summer, I'll be able to write more. This is almost over. I have about two more chapters, then I plan to work on a fanfiction for Naruto called 'After 20 years,' but that's a different story (litterally).

Thank you, Razell. I absolutly love you for reviewing. I'm really, really glad.

On a side note, this story was written the summer of fifth grade a few years ago. I'd had a different ending, but I like this one more. This one's more creative and ties it all together. I'm so happy that this is being published.
