THORNS OF BETRAYAL:
Chapter 1- Surprises
(Amu pov)
I woke up and immediatly wished I hadn't. The sun was way to bright, as it blinded my sensitive eyes. I officially regret signing up for school. Sad thing is I haven't even started yet I regret it already. Then again it was to keep from drawing attention to me. Standing up I went and got ready for school.
Now I had gone through high school a couple of times , I knew that my appearance was bound to attract attention after all humans can be very curious creatures. I just hopped it wouldn't cause me any trouble. I had learned though that not attending school causes people to question your parents where abouts. Which unfortunately they think I'm dead! So I had to attend school so no one was suspicious.
After all I am only 16... sort of...But never mind technicalities, after all what I am shouldn't even really exist. I walked through the gates of my new high school. I ignored the looks and quick to gossip girls. Inwardly I wanted to snap and destroy them all. Outwardly I acted as if I didn't notice or care to.
I walked into the office and immediatly saw Tsukasa waiting for me. I flashed him a dazzling smile. He ushered me into his office before he spoke. "Amu! Its so great to see you. After all its been almost 6 years." Well same old Tsukasa I guess not even time could change that man. "Really only 6 years damn it I should have stayed gone longer. Then maybe you would have retired and I wouldn't have to put up with you." I said coldly.
He pouted like I knew he would. "Why are you so mean to me?" He whined. I laughed oh god this idiot is so gullible. "Tsukasa I have known you for a very long time old friend yet your still so easy to trick." Tsukasa is an old friend. He had taken me in as his daughter after I had to fake my death. He knew very well what it is I had become.
Tsukasa after all was very wise and at times he seemed as old as the earth itself. Now whether or not his idiotic craziness was an act or not I had no clue. I had sat down on the edge of his desk swinging my legs back and forth. He had asked me which classes I wished to take. I told him to choose, after all it didn't really matter I had taken every class at least once already. When he finished he made me promise id visit him tomorrow before I left.
First period had gone alright. Except for the stares I received and the idiots gossiping it was OK. I headed to my second period class. As soon as I sat in the seat I was told to, a girl sat down next to me. Immediatly I recognized her as the girl I snacked on last night.
I knew she wouldn't recognize me. After all a vampires bite hypnotizes the person into not remembering the attack. Heck they don't even realize anything is going on, that is unless you want them to. 20 minutes into class a note was placed on my desk.
I looked over to Rima who was also pretending to pay attention. Opening the note I read, it simply said (You know you should really pay attention.) I replied with a quick (I could say the same to you.) After that we went back and forth writing about pointless things and asking questions. I had learned she was in three of my other classes. By the time lunch had came around I felt a strange fondness towards the girl. I was starting to think maybe this wouldn't be so bad.
That is until I bumped into someone on the way to my last class. It couldn't be could it... I never thought I would see this person again. "Kukai?" His eyes widened when he met mines. The worst part was that he looked exactly the same as when I was still human. It hit me then, of course he had afterall been with Utau. Utau like her brother were both vampires.
Grabbing his arm I quickly dragged him away from all the students and behind a tree. "What the hell! You let that blood sucker change you!" I tried to keep my voice down but failed. "Amu I thought... Wait your one to talk!" He retorted. "I didn't have a choice you idiot This was forced on me by that monster!"
His eyes saddened and the horror and shock were also clearly etched on his face. "I had no idea none... none of us did we were told you had died . He pulled me in and hugged me. "I'm...sorry too just I didn't want this to happen to any one I loved." I hugged him back. Kukai had been my best friend, no more than that he was like a brother to me. He had been dating Utau who just happened to be Ikuto's sister. He pulled back and we sat on the grass. "Kukai when..when did you change?" I hesitantly asked.
"Well it was after you had left, Utau and I were torn up when we were told you had died. Ikuto well we thought he was torn up over your death so we gave him his space. He changed that day, and a week later he left saying he didn't wish to stay here. Utau was sad and lonely, by then she had told me what she was. I excepted her because I love her. So I asked her to change me. " I wanted to strangle him for his stupidity, but I shook the thought from my mind no use scolding him now.
"So have you seen Ikuto since?" I was curious what the monster had been up to lately. "Once in a while he stops by. But he never tells us where it is he goes. Look Amu Utau had no clue so please don't be mad at her." I weighed that thought in my mind. I nodded after a minute, it wasn't her fault anyways. It was that devils fault, he had forced it upon me.
I had trusted him and he had betrayed me. Once I finish ripping him limb from limb, I will then end my life. No not as some grand romantic gesture. True I hate him because I love him, but that is not the reason I plan to die. I plan to die because he is the only thing keeping me from doing so already. I will get my revenge and then I can be at peace.
(Kukai pov)
I couldn't believe Ikuto had done this to her. Utau would be pissed if she knew. I cringed slightly at the thought of her mad. Hell I feel like killing Ikuto myself. Not that I'm mad he turned her. I was pissed he forced her to turn, and then had the nerve to pretend he didn't know.
He had even gone to the memorial her family had held for her. Yet he knew all along while everyone was hurt thinking they had lost Amu. I thought he had loved her, but now I had to wonder what was wrong with the sick bastard! Then again at least Utau will be glad to know Amu isn't dead after all...Well sort of anyways.
(Ikuto pov)
I had been right to come back to town. I crouched in a tree as I watched my little pinkette and Kukai's reunion. I knew this time would come, afterall the past is something that will eventually come back to get you. I had to fight the urge to go to her, after all she was mine, she belonged to me and always had and always would and I wanted so badly to hold her in my arms once again.
I wasn't so stupid to think she would forgive or listen to me. I knew she was hurt and I also knew she had the intention of killing me if we ever came face to face. I had never stopped loving her and I only wish that at the time there had been another way. However things never seem to work out as planned and had I not done what I did she would have suffered an even greater pain.
(Tsukasa pov)
I sipped my tea while staring out my window. Something very interesting was soon to come what I wasn't sure of but I can only do what I can and wait and see the out come. I couldn't choose what I saw the future chose what it revealed to me. I put my tea cup down and I couldn't help but wonder what the future would hold.
