Seika's POV
I blinked once, then twice. One second the ball was in front of me and now it was behind me.
"Seika!" I glanced up and saw Lexie and Light beside me.
"Are you all right?" she asked worried.
"Uh, yeah I'm fine," I answered. She went and scolded Natsu.
"Are you really okay?" I asked Light as he went down to my level.
"Don't worry big brother. I'm perfectly okay," I reassured.
"That was impressive Miss Seika," said Ryuga. I didn't respond. I still didn't understand.
"Well, I have to go Seika," said Light. He kissed me on the cheek and waved goodbye. Ryuga wasn't far behind him. Then, Mr. Racer came up to me.
"If you don't feel like playing I won't force you," he said. I shook my head.
"It's ok sir, I'll continue," I said. He smiled.
"All right. I'll watch these two more attentively," he said and walked back to the others. I noticed Lexie was giving me a curious look.
"Is something wrong?" I asked.
"Huh? Oh, uh, no. Anyway, we should continue," she said. She seemed hesitant, but I let it go for now.
"Where's dad?" I asked. Mom was washing the dishes and she hesitated before answering.
"He's working late tonight," she answered.
"Oh… and what about Light?" I asked. She glanced at the clock and then answered.
"He should be home soon," she answered. I sighed and decided to go to my room. I plopped myself on my bed and thought about what happened today.
"Hey, Lust," I called. She appeared beside me sitting on my bed.
"Yes?" she asked.
"Today, during my tennis class… Something strange happened," I said.
"Are you talking about that ball almost hitting you?" she asked. I nodded.
"… I was the one who made you dodge the ball," she stated.
"What!" I exclaimed as I quickly rose up.
"When a host feels he is in danger and doesn't have time to react, he can unconsciously call us and for a minute I take over and since we have better reflexes dodging that ball was a kids game," she explained.
"…" I just dropped my head back on the bed.
"What! That's your reaction!" she exclaimed. I turned my head so my mouth wasn't covered.
"I'm actually a bit panicking, but I feel so tired," I said. Lust just sighed.
"Anyway, you seem sleepier than usual," she said.
"What do you mean?" I asked and as if cue, I did a big yawn.
"You better get some sleep," she said. Even though she was a ghost, I could feel her hand on my head.
"Are you worried about me?" I asked. She blushed a little bit.
"W-well you ARE my host. I don't have use of a host who's weak you know," she said.
"I appreciate your concern," I said. I got up and was about to change, but I had a sudden low of energy and I fainted. However, I didn't hit the ground. Someone caught me.
"Huh?" I looked with my eyes half closed and I saw what look like the figure of Light.
"Hey Light," I said in a low tone and drifted to sleep.
It's been a while since I had a dream like this. It was the same as before. I was translucent and I was in front of the big palace. I decided to enter. When I went inside, I saw Lust and with her was a man. He was quite impressive. His hair was a dark purple and even from afar I could see purple amethyst eyes.
"What were you thinking Lust?" he exclaimed. She didn't answer at first.
"I was saving her," she answered. She got slapped and it resonated in the hall.
"From a small tennis ball. The results would have been painful, but…" he didn't finish his sentence.
"Why do you care? She's okay, that's what matters," she retorted.
"Yes, but that was pure luck. You know what happens when we take over a body that is not ready for us," he said. What were they talking about?
"You're lucky she only has a drain of energy and not something worse. She'll probably be too tired to wake up tomorrow," he said. Who was this man? I know from the time I spent time with Lust, she doesn't like to be boss around and can be sarcastic, but now… She's very obedient. He must powerful.
"I won't punish, but you should know better. You haven't even gone through the Change yet," he said. He sighed.
"Anyway, I have things to do. Be careful next time or else," he said and walked away. I heard a door closing and then it was silence.
"How long are you going to stand there?" she asked. I froze.
"Don't think I can't see you," she said as she turned around. She walked towards me.
"So, you once again found your way here," she said.
"Who was he?" I asked in a small voice.
"That was my big brother Pride," she said. I had a surprise look. She did a small laugh.
"You wouldn't think he looked like this huh," she said. I nodded.
"I guess I could tell you why we don't look alike. Well, at one time Pride didn't look like this. In fact he had a pretty ordinary look. He looked human. However, us sins go through a Change of some sort. Our powers increase and our appearance change. I wasn't born yet when he turned purple, just imagining it wished I was there laughing at him," she said with a smile. I was really surprised. I never thought the most powerful of sins would be a walking purple thingy.
"What about the others?" I asked.
"Sloth, Wrath and Greed all had the Change. Poor Gluttony is in it right now. He's a bit cranky because of it. Envy and I are the only ones who hasn't started yet," she answered.
"I see," I said. It was quiet and I finally asked.
"What were you and Pride talking about?" I asked
"… I might as well tell you. The reason why you have this drain of energy is because you called me and your body was weakened because of it," she said.
"Why?" I asked.
"How can I put it? It takes a lot of energy for a host calling the sin he occupy. If the host calls the sin and isn't ready yet something terrible can happen. All the energy would be drain and he could die," she explained. I gasped.
"So… I could of…"
"You wouldn't have died because I wouldn't have intervened. The sin has the possibility of not answering the call if he deems it to dangerous," she interrupted. She came down to my level and placed a hand on my shoulder.
"I had faith you wouldn't die. I believed in you that you had enough energy to do it," she said with a smile. I only gave her a small one.
"Anyway-" she said as she got up "I think you'll wake up soon. I suggest you stay home for the day," she said. I felt a sudden pull and I was not in the palace anymore.
"Seika," said a distant voice. I opened my and they felt so heavy. Light was hovered over me.
"Hey big brother," I whispered. I felt so sleepy like I didn't sleep at all.
"Are you all right dear," asked mom.
"Yeah, I'm just tired," I answered. She placed her hand on my forehead.
"You don't have a fever," she said. I just waved my hand lazily.
"I'm fine mom. I'm just really tired I can * yawn * barely keep my eyes open," I said in a low tone. I closed my eyes and heard them talking.
"I think she should skip school for today mom," said Light.
"All right. I'll watch over her," said mom. I felt Light giving me a peck on the cheek and leaving. I smiled and then fell asleep again.
-A few days later-
It's been a couple days since Lust first took over and it took me two days to recover. During these two days, when I wasn't sleeping, Lust was actually there. We talked and we bonded a little. When, I came back to school Lexie was different in a way. I don't know, she kept giving glances, not that it wasn't that unusual, but they seemed different somehow. I wonder what's wrong.
Today, Lexie and I were walking back home from school. We were not far from the Sakura TV station when I saw a police car drove by.
"I wonder what's going on," I asked. We saw the car stop and a police officer heading towards the building.
"Want to check it out?" asked Lexie. I pulled her hand.
"I don't think it's a good idea. We shouldn't intervene in his work," I said.
"Oh come on Seika. Don't tell me you're scared," she teased. I was about to reply, but was interrupted by a sound. We ran towards the source and saw the police officer clutching his chest and collapsing.
"Oh no!" I exclaimed. It's Kira! We have to get out of here. Then, I saw Lexie already by his side.
"Lexie!"
"Sir, are you all right? Wake up," she exclaimed. I ran up to her and sat beside her.
"We have to leave Lexie. It's dangerous here," I said.
"We can't just leave him here," retorted Lexie. Then Lust appeared beside Lexie.
"You girls have to get out of here," she said. I was about to say something, but then I saw Lexie clutch her chest in pain. I quickly went beside her.
"Lexie!" I exclaimed. She fell on the ground still holding her chest.
"Lust! Help me please," I begged.
"I can't do anything," she said in a low voice.
"Lexie! Hang in there," I said. She gave me a weak smile and then she stopped struggling.
"Lexie…" I shook her bit.
"Come on, it's not funny," I said. She still didn't move. Tears started to form.
"LEXIE!" I cried and I lay my head on her chest.
"Come back Lexie!" I yelled. I cried until I heard a voice.
"Seika, you're heavy," said a low voice.
"Huh?" I glanced up at her face and she slowly opened her eyes.
"Lexie!" I exclaimed as I gave her a crushing hug.
"S-Seika. C-can't breath," she said.
"Oh, sorry," I apologized as I pulled away. Then I heard something behind me. I turned around and saw someone with a camera and what look like a news lady. They had caught everything on camera. Oh… no…
Lexie's POV
I felt so much pain in my chest. I never felt something like this. I know I collapsed and then the feeling went away. I opened my eyes and there was darkness everywhere. I stood up and looked around.
"Seika!" I called. I walked around, but there was nothing. I started to get a bit scared.
"Mom! Dad!" I tried. There was still no answer. Then I saw a light.
"What's that?" I asked. The light was pretty I felt drawn to it.
"Do you really want to go there?" asked a female voice. I turned around and woman appeared. She had short hair that reached above her shoulders. They were a caramel brown. She had dark brown eyes. She wore a short skirt and had a tank top with a mini vest that was tied at the front. She wore boots that went to her knee that had laces at the front.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I am Envy," she said.
"That's a weird name," I laughed. A tick mark appeared on her forehead.
"You shouldn't make fun of the person who can save your life," she retorted. That got me quiet.
"Not laughing anymore," she smirked.
"That's right-" She pointed her finger at me "You are dead Alexandra Déchéry," she stated.
"… What! No, I can't be dead. No, no, no. I refuse to be dead. I'm still young and had so much to do in my life," I rambled and Envy sweat drop.
"Even dead you're still overly dramatic," she said.
"Stop saying I'm dead," I exclaimed.
"Well, you are," she retorted. A tick mark appeared.
"Why you-"
"Anyway, I didn't come here to argue I came here to offer you a deal," she interrupted.
"A deal?" I asked.
"Do you see that light?" she asked as she was pointing it. I nodded.
"If you go there you'll definitely be dead and won't come back. You won't see your family and Seika ever again. However, I can get you out of here," she said.
"What's the deal?" I asked.
"In exchange for bringing you back to life you have to be my host for the rest of you life," she said.
"What do you mean by host?" I asked.
"It means I can take over your body and every powers I have, you will have them too," she explained.
"What kind of powers?" I asked.
"You'll soon figure them out," she said smiling. She extended her arm.
"Do we have a deal Alexandra Déchéry?" she asked. I took her hand without hesitation.
"I accept," I said.
"Perfect," she said. Her eyes turned crimson and wings behind her back and she flew upwards.
"We shall talk again… Lexie," she said and disappeared. And soon a mark appeared on my left shoulder. A beautfil design of the number seven.
Outside POV
The two girls were at the hospital. The doctors insisted that Lexie stays just to be on the safe side. Her parents came and they were frightened. They had seen the broadcast and they really thought they had lost their never saw he mom crying so much. Now, the two were alone. Seika was waiting for her parents to come. It was quiet between them.
"Say something Seika! This is way to tense," said Lust. Yeah, but how to I ask? I can't simply say, it's a miracle you're back by the way did a sin came by to save you? Thought Seika.
"Seika," said Lexie.
"Uh, yes," said Seika.
"Tell me, you never told me you also died and came back to life," said Lexie. That caught Seika by surprise.
"How do you know?" she asked.
"I'll tell you after you answer my question," retorted Lexie.
"…" she heisted not sure if she would believe her. She did come back from the dead. Maybe she'll believe me thought Seika.
"I promise I won't laugh or anything," assured Lexie. Seika took a deep breath before answering.
"Yes, I died and came back to life," she stated.
"How?" asked Lexie.
"… A shinigami came and save me," she said. Lexie didn't have a surprised look. Seika started to say her tale, the darkness and the light, the voice and the deal.
"It was the same for me," exclaimed Lexie.
"Huh?" said Seika.
"Well, it wasn't this Lust person who came, but a woman came too. She said her name was Envy," she explained. Envy, I know that name thought Seika.
"Does she have short hair that reaches her shoulder and does she have dark brown eyes?" she asked.
"Yeah, but how do you know?" asked Lexie.
"First tell me how you knew about my accident," she replied.
"Envy told me to ask you about it. Your turn," answered Lexie.
"You could say I'm the host for her twin sister, Lust," she answered.
"…Oh, well that would explain your stunt at the tennis court," said Lexie.
"You know Seika, there is a way for her to see me and you to see Envy," said Lust.
"Really?" she asked.
"That would be good," said Lexie. Both girls looked at each other and giggled.
"I guess Lust and Envy aren't twins for nothing," said Lexie.
"So what do we have to do?" asked Seika.
"First you have to hold hands," said Lust. The girls nodded and held hands.
"Now, me and my sister Lust do the rest," said Envy. The sins eyes turned crimson red and a dark aura surrounded both young girls. They suddenly felt a surge of power.
"Thou shall see what is hidden from thou eye," incanted Lust.
"Thou shall see what is hidden from thou eyes," mimicked Envy. The mark of the seven sins glowed green for Lexie and a dark pink for Seika. The black aura was bigger and for a moment they felt what the other felt and then it disappeared. The girls opened their eyes. Lust and Envy were both standing beside their host.
"So, that's how you look like," said Lexie.
"Nice to see you again Envy," said Seika.
"It's nice to see you too," said Envy. Then, there was a faint glow from their wrists. The looked and there was a tattoo. It looked like a floral bracelet.
"This is the mark that allows you see the other sins," said Lust. Then Lexie smiled a wide grin.
"This is awesome," she said. The three others laughed. Then the door opened and it was Seika's mom.
"Mo-" but was interrupted my her mom giving her a hug.
"What's the matter?" asked Seika.
"I was so scared that you left us again," said Sachiko tears starting to form. Seika's eyes soften and she embraced her mother.
"I'm fine mom," she reassured. Then Sachiko turned her attention to Lexie.
"How are you dear?" she asked.
"I'm doing fine Mrs. Yagami," answered Lexie.
"Well, we have to go back home," said Sachiko.
"All right. See you soon," said Seika. She gave her a hug and she left.
During these events other eyes were witnessing it. The detective L and his task force had also bear witness to the resurrection of Lexie. Soichiro just left leaving the videotapes that was send to Sakura TV from Kira.
"Ryuzaki there's something that's been bothering me," said Touta Matsude.
"If you're talking about Seika Yagami and her friend then it's bothering me too," said L. He went to his chair and sat in his usual crouched position.
"Mr. Ukita was killed by this Kira and Alexandra Déchéry was also killed, but for some reason Seika Yagami was spared. Moments later Ms. Déchéry rose from the dead," said L mostly talking to himself.
"I think I should investigate these two a bit further," said Ryuzaki. He was determined to find out about their secrets.
How was it? So, Lexie is finally the host for Envy. I just want to say that Soichiro and Light didn't see the resurrection of Lexie. I read the manga and according to it they could only see the broadcast of the message. So, that explaind why Light didn't react. I also want to tell you guys I won't be updating for a week or two because of my exams that are coming up, but don't worry I finish school on June 22. So, after I have all the time of the world to work on it.
Alert and review! :D
