Letting Go
~Don't look back~
"Lord N requests you, Lady Touko." The voices of the Triad hiss like wind through blades of grass, their black-clad features implacable as the leader moves to offer his hand to her. "It would be unwise to keep him waiting."
She takes a deep breath, fear making her heart pound hard. "Alright," she whispers, moving to step in front of Cheren.
"No." He seizes her wrist and keeps her back. "You aren't taking her."
The leader stares him down with eyes that are like chips of ice. "Do not make us dispose of you, boy. We have a right to transport her."
"Then take it," he growls, one hand on the pokeball at his waist. "But you'll have to get past me."
"Cheren. Cheren, look at me. Look at me!" Finally she manages to turn him around to face her, and she captures his face between her hands, forcing him to meet her eyes. "Don't be stupid. I'll be okay, I promise."
He searches her eyes desperately, a muscle in his jaw twitching. "I can't lose you, Touko."
"You won't. I promise I'll come back, Chere."
Slowly, he releases his grip on her forearms, bowing his head to hide his expression. Touko reaches up to tip his chin back up, and kisses him.
"I love you," she murmurs.
"As I love you," he whispers in reply, his clear eyes burning.
She squeezes his hand before placing her own in the ninja's, glancing back at Cheren over her shoulder.
He blinks, and she's gone.
~And leave you behind~
