Yume No Haru: Heir

Sorry that it's taking me a while, have so much stuff to do.

I decided to call Setsuna's alter ego- Dark Setsuna

It was morning, Konoka was cooking breakfast and Asuna and Negi were just coming into the kitchen.

"Have you heard anything from Setsuna?" Negi asked as he looked at his friend. "We talked last night; she said that she'll be back today" I can't wait" Konoka said smiling.

"Poor Konoka, she was just separated from Setsuna for one night and was moping around last night." Asuna said getting a drink from the refrigerator. Konoka blushed at the comment, "be quiet!" Konoka managed to say throwing her towel at Asuna. "Geez, I was just kidding."

Negi laughed and said, "Shall we go back to the library?" "I don't know, we didn't find anything there," Konoka pointed out. "Basically we were pretty bored," Asuna said sipping her drink.

"I wonder if Chamo-kun knows anything," Negi said rubbing his chin. "Why do you do that, you don't have facial hair!" Asuna said getting irritated by Negi gesture.

"Because I like it! You got a problem?" Negi said at Asuna, he knew that it would make her even mad.

"Of course I do! I don't want to kis…" Asuna said realizing what she was going to say. Konoka laughed at her close friends.

Negi sighed and patted Asuna's head "don't worry." All Asuna could do is blush, it was a cute side to her that Negi recently noticed.

"Hey Konoka, why don't you call Setsuna and see how it's going" Negi asked his friend.

"Great idea let me get my phone." Konoka said running to her bed.

-----------------------

"Because, if you don't. I won't be able to see HER again; I won't be able to see Kono-chan" Her alter ego said.

"Don't you see, I am you but you neglect the fact that you're a demon! You always spent time hiding your wings, the color of your hair, and eyes. You deny your heritage and the possibility to become even stronger!" Dark Setsuna said lashing her attack.

Setsuna dodge her evil self's attack, "I haven't hidden myself from anything." Setsuna went behind her dark self and just when she's about to slash her back, the dark one disappeared and said "Zantetsusen!"

Setsuna noticed that skill it was the same as her, 'Iron-cutting flash'. She knew that she had to dodge the attack so she used the same attack to neutralize it, "Zantetsusen!"

"Not bad, but just because you know this attack doesn't mean that you're strong enough to defeat me." Dark Setsuna suddenly appeared and kicking Setsuna in the stomach and sending her fly to the wall.

Why is she so strong! What's wrong with me! Setsuna got up from where she was, "I am not giving up so easily. I will defeat and get what I want." She looked around and didn't see Dark Setsuna around. "What's wrong chickened out?" Setsuna yelled, where is she? I can't sense her.

"Zanmaken!!" Dark Setsuna said as she appeared in flying from the top. Setsuna was too late to react to this attack, demonic spirit were dispersed by Dark Setsuna causing Setsuna to fall to the ground and gasp in pain as the spirits ate throught her flesh.

Setsuna still on the floor said in a whimper, "Shin Raikōken". Lightning energy infused into the sword and causes an explosion that destroys the area where she stood. "Well, well you do know some technique." Smirked the Dark Setsuna.

Setsuna was now standing, her body was cut and bleeding but that didnt faze her. "I told you I am not giving up! As long as Konochan is alive, I won't die!" Setsuna yelled her strong desired and "I will kill you".

-----------------------------------

Konoka dialed Setsuna's phone and she couldn't get through. That's weird, she doesn't have it off.

Asuna looked at Konoka, "Is something wrong?" Konoka gave Asuna a concern look, "I can't get through to Secchan."

"Maybe because she's to far out that she's not receive her signal, try again." Negi said with a small smile. "Ok" Konoka speed dial Setsuna's number.

'Beep Beep'

"Still nothing?" Asuna said, even she was getting a worried. Usually Setsuna answer her call specially if it's Konoka and even has a special tune for Konoka.

"Let me see your phone," Negi said taking Konoka's phone. He dialed the phone and he received the same thing, a busy signal.

Why isn't Secchan picking up her phone! Konoka kept thinking, she looked worried. "I think I'll call Zetsuji and find out.

"Yeah, you should do that," Asuna said crossing her arms and leaning againsn't the wall.

'Ring Ring'

"Sakurazaki Residence" said a deep voice. "Hello, may I speak to Sakurazaki Zetsuji?" Konoka asked politely.

"May I asked who is speaking please?" The man said.

"Konoe Konoka…" Konoka said. She could hear the run once she told him her name. "Konoe-sama, I'll let him know." The man said exhausted from runing. "Sir you have a call from Konoe-sama," the man said handing the phone and leaving.

"This Zetsuji, how can I help you?" Zetsuji said.

"Hey Zetsuji, it's me Konoka.." Konoka said, not knowing how she was going to ask for Setsuna. "Hi, it's been a while." Zetsuji said

"Yes it has, I called because I'm trying to get in touch with her but her phone is busy." Konoka said worriedly.

"Oh! She's in the library, because it's a magical library it probably the call of the busy signal." Zetsuji said not worrying her.

"Wait but I thought she went with both you and Meiru?" Konoka asked confused.

"Well yes, but Setsuna has to do a somethings alone. So she sent as back to the village." Zetsuji said, he didn't want to worried the girl.

"Is there anyway to find out what's going on? Konoka said trying to see if there's anyway to contact her beloved.

"Konoka the reason Setsuna is in the library by herself is because…" Zetsuji started to explain to Konoka.

-----------------------

Meanwhile

Dark Setsuna still smirked, seeing herself express such will to continue fighting. "Then show me what you got." Setsuna stood in her fighting position and suddenly disappeared, "Hyakka Ryōran". All Dark Setsuna did was stood where she last spoke, she didn't move or even lifted her sword. Setsuna's attack fires off ki and petals in a straight line to strike down Dark Setsuna, but she became shocked when Dark Setsuna reflected the attack reversing it back to Setsuna.

Setsuna tasted the blood from her mouth, she was still bleeding and on her knees. How can it be? That was my strongest attack and she reflected back to me! Am I really that weak? I don't… I don't… think that I am going to make it if she…

Setsuna thoughts was interrupted when Dark Setsuna stood sided her and pierced Setsuna from the back to the front. Setsuna's eyes widen in pain, she bleed more and more. She was now sitting and Dark Setsuna removed her sword from Setsuna's back and could only look at her, "I guess... I am really weak. All I wanted was to be happy with Konochan."

Dark Setsuna sat beside Setsuna and whispers something in Setsuna's ears. Setsuna smiled at her and took off her red diamond ring from her hand and gave it to Dark Setsuna. "Ko..nocha..n" were Setsuna's last words as her hand drops to the ground.

----------------------

A light from the library was shooting up into the air. "Zetsuji-Sama! Lights are emitting into the air." A guard said.

What!? Did Setsuna finish already? Zetsuji was in thought, and forgot that Konoka was on the phone with him until he hears the phone falling and other people on the other side of the phone. "Konoka!? Konoka what's wrong?" Asuna and Negi yelled.
