Hey!
It's me, Angelvampgirl! Well, I got only two reviews, thank you alexanimelvr and miss-latina!
I'm glad someone liked it enough to review!
Kyo: Says you
Me: Nyeh!
Kyo: Whatever...
Me: Do you want to end up with Rose or Hanajima? I can make that happen!
Kyo: You wouldn't!
Me: I totally would
Kyo: Whatever, and she doesn't own me or fruits basket, or anything, really except Rose.
Me: Grr! At least I have Rose. Any YOU can't have her!
Rose: Do I get a say here?
Me and Kyo: No!
Now, on with the story!
?'s POV
"Raksha!" someone called my last name. I turned towards the source.
"What?"
"The young girl, Rose...knows what she is. And a young boy also now knows." The man tried to discretely sneak out of the room before I turned around and unleashed my wrath on the bearer of bad news.
"How do they know? What is their relationship? I have to know this!"
"I'm sorry, uh, sir! I don't know..."
I turned at this. My violet eyes bore into the other man's. One twitch of my finger and the younger man couldn't breathe, it was his own fault, though. When he came to work for me, I'd warned me he might not survive the month, he thought I was joking. I left the room and the dying man inside it. I'd had so many people tell me that I had no conscience. Well, of course I did, but how was I expected to listen to it? I was much too busy.
Rose's POV
"Yes, I'm a witch. I only recently discovered this. Mum wasn't one, so it must be from my dad. But I found out that my sister, Latisha, is one. So, maybe she charmed you into asking her out, she's certainly capable, and then she might have made it that you couldn't remember it. I wouldn't expect it of her, but anything's possible, right?" I was ranting. I was worried.
Kyo frowned at me.
"I WOULD HAVE REMEMBERED ASKING SOMEONE OUT!"
"Not if you were charmed," I replied calmly.
"Whatever, are you still sitting with us at lunch?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"
"Just in case..."
"Okay then..."
Just then, the bell rang and scared the living daylights out of us.
"Bye!"
"See you later!"
We walked off to our separate classes. I still loved him, he knew a secret that I, myself had only just discovered and I just KNEW he was special. I'd never really noticed, but most of the students in the same grade as us pretty much hated Kyo. I wonder why...
Is it just because he's different? Or because when he isn't around me, he's hostile and withdrawn? Why isn't he as popular with everyone else as he is with me?
School was over, so I started walking home. I could only wish that I had my normal boots, jeans and singlet combination. Today, I'd decided to wear sandals with little heels, a tight denim skirt and a black off-the-shoulder top.
I'm going to be covered in blisters and bruises when I get home, not just from the sandals, either.
I continued to walk along the pavement, occupying myself by trying not to step on the cracks and lines set into the concrete. My head was down again, watching my feet and where they stood, it was actually pretty fun, and just when I was starting to get drawn into it, I walked into someone.
"Oh! I'm really sorry, I just wasn't paying attention! Sorry again! Buh-bye!" I cried, eager to get on with my childish game.
"Wait, Miss Raksha!"
I lifted my head and frowned with confusion. "Yes?"
He grabbed my wrist and quickly bent it behind my back. I yelped with pain. The man kicked the backs of my knees, forcing me to kneel on the hard ground.
"What do you want?"
"Come quietly and you won't get hurt...much more."
I narrowed my eyes. I glared at him, trying to turn him into a raging fire. I concentrated all my energy on an image in my mind of the man being slowly engulfed by a flickering inferno. Yes, I'm sadistic, I get that a lot. But I like pretending to be sweet and then watching people's expressions when I go all torture, death, doom and gloom on them. It's very amusing. But, even when I focussed all my energy on his demise, nothing happened. It was like he had some kind of immunity to my magic. Which I knew was impossible, wasn't it? Nothing was happening! The only reason I'd stayed calm was because of my belief in the gifts that I had, now that my confidence was gone, I was getting worried.
"What do you want with me?"
"Me? I don't want anything with you, my employer, Raksha, has plans for you."
Okay, so what do you guys think? Who do you think 'Raksha' is? Latisha? One of Rose's brothers? Or maybe one of her friends? You'll find out as soon as someone reviews! And if you guess correctly, I'll add a character with your name in the next chapter, I'll need your first name, or a fake name if you like, the age you'd like to be, and some characteristics if you want to be really specific. You can add any other details if you want, but remember, you have to actually guess CORRECTLY before this can happen. So get guessin'!
Bye bye!
