Cuxie: Yay. New chappy. Wa-hoo.

Himeka: You seem a little out of it.

Cuxie: Mmm.

Himeka:(nudges Cuxie)Shouldn't you be doing reviews.

Cuxie:...(passes out)

Himeka:O.o! Oh my! I-I guess I'll do it then.

Squeaky-Squishy: I don't know what Kazune-chan wants, But...uh(looks back at Cuxie, who is currently unconcious)I'm sure Cuxie-sama would. Dear me. Thank you from both of us!

yolapeoples: WAH!! Y-You don't r-r-really think h-he'd do that...do you? Maybe Kazune-chan's just stressed. He wouldn't, erm, ya know. O.o

Caramel Crazy: Cuxie-sama send her thanks!

jozey: It's just my luck I suppose. Thank you for commenting!-

Himeka: Well that's done. That wasn't so hard. But uh...(pokes Cuxie with a stick)Someone! Help.

Kazune:What the--O.o! What happened to her?!

Himeka: I have no clue. She just...fainted.

Kazune:(picks Cuxie up)That doesn't sound like her. I guess it's off to the hospital.

"I need to talk to you." He said emotionlessly. Still with that vacant look in his eyes. Still looking through me. I couldn't stand it much longer. Something was wrong with him and I wanted to know what.

"Kazune-chan...what's wrong with you?" It took him awhile to respond.

"You really had us worried." He said, ignoring my question. His voice was still dull, almost as if he wasn't...there completely. As ridiculous as that sounds. "Karin especiallly. She almost made herself sick crying. She begged me to take you to the hospital thinking you might have slipped into a coma or something." He continued as he narrowed his eyes at me slightly. Is it me or is it freezing in here?

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry you two. But it's okay because I'm fine now!" I remarked cheerily forcing my best smile.

"That's the problem."
SLAP!!

"AH!!" I stumbled back, hitting the floor hard. I looked up shocked to find him glaring with those ice-blue eyes of his. Did he...did he really just...?!

"STUPID!! You selfish little bitch!" He never cursed at me. "You really don't think of anyone but yourself! You had Karin worried to death over one of your stupid mistakes! AGAIN!! Why are you so weak and helpless?! Worthless!!" He looked at me almost hoping I would defy him. But I was frozen in place holding my hand to my red cheek. He's never struck me before. He's never cursed at me. Never talked to me in such a tone. What happend to him? To me, that made him hate me?

"K-Kazune-chan--"

"SHUT-UP!!" He barked and I winced. I could feel my whole body trembling. I can't believe that in alll the years I'd known him I had never seen this side of him. Never had a clue there was a dark side to him. Kazune-chan had never looked so scary...no...terrifying. And he was no longer looking through me. No. He was looking straight at me, in digust and pure hatred. "I'm tired of you and your wrecklessness. If you know what's good for you you'll be more careful. I don't want anything like this to happen again, understood?" I remained rooted in my spot on the floor. "DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!" I nodded scrambling back, away from him.

"Y-Y-Yes Kazune-chan." He glared again.

"And stop calling me that." He left. I could still here him down the hall talking to Karin who had probably been awakened by all the yelling. I heard him tell her it was nothing and to go back to bed. Yeah. Nothing. He just hit me and called be a worthless, selfish, and stupid bitch. Nothing to worry about.

Why?...Why would Kazune-chan do this to me? It had become clear to be that over the years he was spending more and more time with Karin. He no longer asked me constantly if I was feeling ok. After the final battle...he seemed to forget about me. Kazune-chan...why? Do you honestly value Karin's well being that much more than mine? That thought alone was enough to break me. I knew he loved her. I knew before he said it that he was falling in love with her. But I never knew that his love for her came from his love for me(In a brother/sister way of course). That loving her would cause him to hate me. I never would've thought...

"Kazune-chan..." I muttered sullenly. Realizing I was still on the floor I shakily got up making my way to the bathroom. I couldn't help but feel a familiar chill as I opened the door to peek out. I quickly shut it locking the door in the process. Too risky. I went to my vanity instead.

Hideous. The only word to describe my face at that moment. I'm alittle ashamed to admit I had always thought of myself as being pretty. Not now. I was hideous. My face was sheet white which clashed with the dark bruise forming on my left cheek. My eyes were red and puffy and my face tearstained. Was I crying? I hadn't noticed before. Looking in the mirror only made me more miserable. More tears fell as I shuffled back to my bed. By the time I lay down I was sobbing violently and couldn't stop myself. I buried my face in my pillow to muffle the sounds.

"Kazune-chan!" I blubbered into my pillow. I closed my eyes tight only to see his furious face present in my mind. I shuddered. "Why Kazune-chan...?" "...stop calling me that." If you aren't Kazune-chan...then who are you? I wondered. "Kazune-san?" It didn't sound right. It was foreign. But maybe it was supposed to. It shouldn't sound familiar. This Kazune isn't at all familiar to me. He's a stranger.

In just under two days my world had fallen apart. My only family had abused me and I had hurt my best friend. And the worse part is...this was only the beginning...

Himeka: This chapter is done! Kazune-chan, how's Cuxie-sama?

Kazune: Fine. Still out cold.

Himeka: Did you really take her to the hospital?

Kazune: No.

Himeka:...Then where is she?

Kazune...(blush)R&R!! Stay tuned for the next chapter!

Himeka: O.o??
