Hi lovely people of the world, I've been feeling in my heart for a while that I should do the next chapter about Black Star and Tsubaki, just been feeling as of late that they are wanting there story to be told, and if you know what I mean when I say a character is speaking to you I think you'll get my drift. So anyway this will probs be just a one off unless you guys ask for another.
Ps: I advise listening to Tonight by FM static, as it was a very inspirational piece for this story
When you're stuck in a room, with no company, no light and madness seeping in from every corner, I would not blame you if you feel into the darkest pits of the earth never to come back out again. But to never come back out again is not an option for me, for I am the man who shall surpass god, and even in this state I will fight for it, for I have a light to guide me through this darkness that has become my life.
The creek of the door seems so distant, as though it's coming from another world, but the warmth of the figure within its frame reaches across the blackness of space like the sun, touching my skin and bringing back the warmth that it seemed to have lost who knows how many moons ago. Her light filled the room, and the madness that seemed to drip down the walls seemed to dry up and retreat as she moved her way further into the room.
"Tsubaki" It's nothing more than a husky whisper, yet she hears it anyway and I watch as a soft smile comes across her face. Tsubaki, my flower, to those who don't know her she may seem plain and without a scent, but to me she had the smell of hope, love and strength. In this place of darkness she was my shining light, the light I wake up to every morning, she was my hope. It was the memories of her that kept me sain and steady, her smile, the way her hair would fall over her shoulder whilst she was reading a book or doing her school work. The crinkle she would get between her eyes when she was concentrating hard, and the loose strand of hair that she always suck behind her left ear when she was shy or embarrassed.
Smiling she set the tray of food down in front of me, her hand reaching out to lightly touch my cheek. She cant speak to me, nor can I wrap my arms around her and feel the warmth of her beating heart against my chest, as to do so would end in pain for both of us. If the consequences of enacting upon the actions I wished undertake would only apply to me, I would have risked it all for those brief seconds of her warm, but I would not risk her, never her. I would never will put her through that pain, not again, not after that first time, no never again.
We stay like that for a while, I may not have soul perception like Maka, allowing me to read the thoughts and feeling of a living soul like she can, but the link between the two of us was still strong, and even without that particular gift I could still feel the movement of Tsubaki soul and her inner thoughts and daemon's.
"I'm strong, we can and will make it through, for I am Black Star and I will not be defeated by this"
I will my thoughts to her, and watch slowly as she seems to get the message, in whatever way she does. I cant help but let my heart flutter when she smiles one more time, not that sad smile she seemed to always give, but the one she would give before a battle and after when we would walk away side by side headed home, this was hope. A rapping on door outside signified the ending of our time, and I watched her get up and walk back across the room. As she left I felt the warmth slowly depart from the room allowing the madness to slowly return. The door closed with a soft click, but I did not hear it, I was miles away safe in my memories and with the warmth of that smile burning strong like a star in my heart.
Next chapter we will get back to Soul and Maka hope you guys enjoyed it, it's a little short but then again it wasn't ment to be long. Till next time
