Chapter 24: Injection

"How did this happen? WHY did this happen?" I asked angrily as i slammed my fist hard against the oak wood walls of the sealed off room.

"This wasn't supposed to happen!"

I, who had lost and finally got back Rima from the dead, had lost her again. Any memory after her party when we met, was gone.

The countless years, the times spent together and most importantly the day we held each other realizing our love for one another, saying it aloud for the first time.

It was all gone.

All the evidence that she held in her head was no longer there.

The only other option was to show her pictures of our happiness, but it wasn't good enough.

"A purebloods blood is known to do a lot of things, but every potential as to what its capable is unknown. I will have analysts do research to see if it is irreversible" Kaname reassured me calmly, though he truly did feel bad that this would happen.

My only reply that I could manage was a another hard fist to the wall.

Hearing a small yelp, I looked to see Yuuki standing by the door frame half hiding unsure if she should come in.

"I'm sorry" I lamented looking away from her and lowering my arm.

Her only response was a smile before she made her way to Kaname, where she happily began chatting as he stroked her hair.

Feeling intrusive I bowed before leaving the room. I was met by Zero guarding the door, keeping an eye out for Yuuki, though it wasn't necessary since she was with Kaname.

It felt wrong to have him with us when not to long ago, he was siding with the hunters, debating with us on Rima's life. I walked past him.

"Hey Shiki" came the cheerful voice of Aidou as he patted my shoulder.

"You seem to be in a bad mood. What happened?" he asked falling into step with me.

I wasn't sure if I should tell anyone that Rima had lost most of her memories, but my mind was made up once I saw a blue headed man closing the door to Rima's room behind him.

Rokoru.

I hadn't seen him since the wedding.

I felt my anger worsen, my blood boil and heard a snap to my right as a doors handle cracked and fell onto the floor. With that I heard Aidou laugh a nervous laugh before he quickly left. Smart choice. I knew I wanted to rush in there and confront him before he confused Rima anymore but a part of me wondered if maybe she would remember him better than she remembered me.

But then I got over it.

I wasn't going to lose her. Not again. I've lived through what that meant and it almost left me insane. Getting myself under control, I made my way through the dimly lit hall of the underground mansion straight towards Rima's room. I opened the door to see Rokoru sitting on her bed beside her as he lightly held her hand.

"She doesn't seem to remember anything past a certain point." he stated without turning to look at me. She looked calm, not shocked but still as weak as when I saw her. I couldn't answer him, couldn't admit that she might be lost to me, but a small part of me couldn't help but be pleased that she didn't remember him like she remembered me.

She quickly took her hand away from his and brought it to her head as she held it writhing in pain. I was at her side in an instant.

"Rima? What wrong?" I questioned urgently. She only made small gasps. I brought her to my arms as Rokoru quickly made his way across the room, opening a metal box and making his way back to her in another instant.

He gently reached out for her arm.

"Minori... Rokoru" she gasped.

"Our...wedding...beautiful..."

He looked at her in shock as she reclaimed some of their memories, almost as shocked as I felt.

"Yes" he whispered stroking the side of her face. He took her arm and I watched as he stabbed a needle into her vein. The tube was filled with blood. Not any vampire or human blood. This one seemed thicker than the rest and a lot redder. The blood of a pureblood. As the blood was being injected into her, she started to calm down until the pain ended completely.

I looked at her in my arms. She had a little more color in her now but still as weak. I was relieved she was no longer in pain.

"She's going to need some rest now" Rokoru instructed laying his palm feather light against her heart.

He smiled a serene smile before removing his hand and turning to leave.

"I'm still not giving up" he said before leaving the room completely.

I hadn't expected him to be here involved in this war, and now that I knew he was, I wasn't going to give up on Rima's memories.

I would sit day and night by her reminding her of the time we spent together, of the love we shared.

I would go through any lengths to get her back, to remind her of our love. It wasn't gone, it wasn't dead, I just had to remind her.

"I'm not giving up Rima, not ever" I whispered in her ear.

I lightly pressed my lips against hers.

My mind was made up.
