Author's Note: And here is chapter 5. It's a lot less action but a necessary chapter. I felt that a bit more of Shito was a good change of pace. The story is going to switch between more people soon so as to give a more rounded story. Please review and tell me what I can fix?

Shito stared at the phone in his hand. The sound of the line gone dead, loud in the room. He just couldn't believe what he'd heard…Akatsuki had yelled at him before. In fact he did it all the time. It had become natural for them to bicker back and forth. But…this time…the way Chika's voice sounded…it was just…so much of a shock. Touhou slid his hand up Shito's back then rested it on his shoulder.

"See? It was as I told you. He never wants to see you again." Touhou spoke softly as if comforting a child. "I will have your things packed for you. There is no need for you to go back there." Touhou took the cell phone from the raven-haired zombie and slid it back into his pocket.

Shito nodded slowly, still sorting through what had just happened. He sat down in the chair blinking. Forgetting Touhou was even there. He kept replaying Chika's words over and over again in his head. How did he even find out about the kiss? Shito had been sure he was passed out.

"Shiba Reichirou was there….Akatsuki had Shiba there." Shito said aloud. That was what got to him the most. It wasn't just the yelling but the fact that Shiba had been there, even talking to him on the phone. Shito looked up at Touhou. "Why was Shiba there? He was supposed to be dead."

Touhou gave him a small shrug. "I don't know. Perhaps you were mistaken in what you saw." Touhou lifted Shito's chin upwards to him. "Forget about that boy, Shito-sama. You were never meant to have love nor friendships. The only person for you to be concerned with is me. Do you understand?"

Shito nodded, silent. He hadn't the energy to do anything else. He just sat there, not even hearing the door open and close. He watched as the fish swam in their habitat. To him, the fish were lucky. Sure they were trapped in a glass world not able to ever leave. But they had the freedom to do as they wished within that world. They didn't have any rejections or orders…no betrayals and no heartbreak. Shito envied them, wishing he was able to switch lives.

He stood from the chair and slowly walked towards the glass wall holding back the water. He placed his palm on the glass and leaned his forehead against it. The cool temperature of the glass was soothing to him. He stood there for a long time, unaware of the time passing. At one point he thought he'd heard a noise but ignored it. He stayed there until Touhou came back for him.

"Still sulking even hours later? My, my you really were attached weren't you?" Touhou pulled Shito from the wall turning him around. He gently cupped the boy's cheek in one hand. Touhou's other hand held his chin. "Come, it's time to go home to Shanghai." Touhou moved away taking his elbow leading him from the room. "Everything is waiting for you."

Shito nodded taking a deep defeated breath. "Yes, Touhou."

Touhou smiled. "Perfect." He lead Shito from the room and outside.

The smirk on Touhou's face was hidden from Shito. His spell had been working perfectly. He'd cast it without Shito even knowing, making him more vulnerable. It wasn't a well known spell among exorcists for it was ancient, nearly forgotten. In the past it had been used as a type of mind control for the weaker zombies. In Shito's case it was only strong enough to affect one part of Shito's mind. The part that controlled vulnerability.

Touhou was pleased at the effects he'd seen already. Shot had believed the fake conversation. Now in his confused and rejected state, Touhou had to act quickly. He lead Shito down the hallway towards the front entrance. The car sat ready for them as they exited the building. One of the Xu Fu's drivers opened the car door for his guests and waited next to it. Touhou gently prodded Shito into the car before following him inside. Shito sat in the far corner starting out of the window. The old emotionless expression clouded over his face.

Touhou noticed something sitting on the bench between them and picked it up. His eyes widened as he recognized the black studded wristlet. Quickly he hid it inside his sleeve and folded his arms over it. How careless to have left this behind. Touhou thought to himself. He'd have to find a way to get rid of it before Shito noticed. If he found out that Akatsuki Chika had been in the same car only minutes before, it would ruin everything Touhou had done. Even though the wristlet was tucked away, Touhou could tell that it had been cut. That Akatsuki-kun will be trouble. Touhou thought again. He couldn't help but indulge the tiniest worry that perhaps Chika could ruin everything on his own.

Touhou gestured for the driver to move along and returned his hands to his lap. He watched Shito out of the corner of his eye as the car started forward. Shito sighed and slumped down in the seat, his arms folded in front of him. He closed his eyes in an attempt to sleep. Touhou smiled watching him.

"Lao Ye will be glad that you've returned to Shanghai, Shito-sama." Touhou said, a slight amused tone to his voice.

"I don't care. I wish he'd die." Shito muttered.

"Now, now don't be like that. You know why you are alive. Be grateful." Touhou responded. He leaned over and pulled on Shito's arm. "Come here."

Shito sighed and hesitated a moment before doing as told. He slid himself next to Touhou without looking at him. Touhou chuckled quietly and reached to take the boy's chin in his hand. He forced Shito to look at him. "Shito-sama, you really should just forget that child. Your hurting will cease the sooner you do."

"Yes, Touhou." Shito muttered. He didn't really want to…but he didn't feel like disobeying Touhou, only for the result consequence. He'd have to deal with Touhou's desires later but right now he just wanted to be left alone in his thoughts.

They drove for almost an hour before reaching the Xu Fu's private airport. The car stopped alongside the small jetliner waiting on the runway. Shito waited for the door to open before exiting the car. He leaned against it waiting for the baggage to be loaded. When Touhou got out of the car Shito moved away and headed towards the stairs. He didn't want any more time with the Exorcist than was necessary. He ascended into the jetliner and found a seat in the back corner. One with no other seats nearby. He burrowed down in it and folded his arms. He stared out the window, a small part of him hoping that maybe Akatsuki had felt bad about what he said and came running after him. Ten minutes passed and still no silver-haired zombie. The jetliner's doors closed and the winged machine started down the runway. A tiny tear somehow found its way to the surface and spilled down Shito's cheek. Caught off guard Shito quickly wiped it away and stared at his wet finger. He hadn't shed a tear in years…no…he had…for the golem girl. That's right…he'd felt attachment to her even for the small amount of time he'd known her. He could feel that sort of things. Touhou had been wrong about that part but…that didn't change the fact that he'd been rejected. It just bothered him that he'd been so hurt by it. He was more hurt by the fact that Shiba was there than bothered. After all that had happened he turned to Shiba? Shito kicked at the table in a burst of anger then settled again into the chair. It didn't matter anymore…he was leaving. And just as Akatsuki had said. He was never coming back.
