Chapter 5: A Meeting in Dreams

{Hokuto's POV}

The memories that often ran through the darkest parts her mind slowly withered away into nothingness. Was it because she ended up back in Tokyo "destined" to help him or was there a certain purpose for their reunion? The fact of the matter is, it was hopless. So many reasons not explained to this wandering being. A dazed off look had grown on her face; to lost within memories to care. It was then the realization came. Seishirou. Being the previous Sakurazukamori; maybe he could help her but she didn't want anymore of his help. So who else was there? She just didn't know anymore.

{Yuzuriha's POV}

"I'm just really worried about her Kusanagi; ever since we left Subaru she hasn't eaten or slept much. Yeah I know it shocks her bu-fine. Yeah. Thanks." She sighed and hung up the phone. So much for that. The only one who could help Hokuto was too far in darkness to even help himself. She didn't know how to help. And it hurt her.

{Hokuto's POV}

She was dreaming; that much was obvious. She was amazed she even fell asleep. She narrowed her emerald eyes coldly and looked around. "Whose there? Show yourself." Her eyes were immediately assulted by a bright light and she yelped in pain, after what seemed like hours the light finally faded and a person stepped out. Realization flooded Hokuto's eyes; it was the person who'd brought her back to life. "Fei-Wong-Reed?"

{Fei-Wang's POV}

This was not good. His puppet would not be able to carry out the task assigned to her if she was not close to her brother. He brought her back so she could kill Subaru; though she had no memory of ever being told that. The foolish girl trusted him so easily but she hated him too. Hated him for giving her life again. Oh well, it made no difference. She wouldn't remember this dream when she awoke; he'd make sure of that.

"It's been so long Hokuto, have you gotten your wish yet?"

He knew this question would upset her; because he also knew she'd gotten nowhere near her goal. He smirked softly and walked towards her; loving that she bowed merely at his presence. "I can help you." Her head shot up and she looked towards him in shock.

"Why would you help me more than you have?" he heard her ask and he smirked again.

"Because my dear, there is much potential in you; and your brother is in need of you more than ever." He replied and slowly handed her a small crystal ball. "Keep this; for you will need it in the future." And just like he had hoped; just like he knew she would, because she was that gullibale.

Hokuto played wonderfully into his hands.

{Hokuto's POV}

Emerald eyes awoke with a start as she jolted right out of the bed. What was that just now? When did she fall asleep. She blinked and looked down towards her hand noticing a small; silver and red crystal ball. Where had it come from?

"I must be too stressed out. Now then; I'm off to see Subaru."
