Kazuma's POV:
As I hold the small and frail girl close to me, a sense of warmth begins to run through my body…..for the first time, in a long time actually...I have never felt this type of warmth after that incident.
As I lift us into the darkened sky, small rain pellets threaten to sprinkle down harder, but it seems like it's going to hold for awhile. A sigh releases itself from my mouth, and I become fully prepared to head off. Using the wind I cause us to fly through the dusky sky, heading at a quickened speed which was fixed towards the Kannagi's main household.
At the Kannagi Household:
We finally get to the main household, so I take the girl to my quarters. Since she was asleep I wanted to let her sleep for awhile so that she won't be exhausted when she wakes up. As I carry her towards my room down the hallway, a small light flickers, illuminating part of the hallway….My fathers room. He must be up, so I must be very quiet so that he won't notice… I take quick, and swift foot steps towards my room, and when I reach the door, I quickly and as quietly as I can, I open the door. I then quickly shut and lock the door right behind me. He didn't notice...good...I think to myself.
I turn around and I head towards my large king-size bed, and I lay the sleeping red-head down, while sliding a large black blanket over her. As I do that, Ayano flinches, and then grabs the blankets unconsciously, while pulling the blanket towards her chest. She was snuggling with it. heh...how cute, I think to myself. I look outside of my window and I notice that the rain decided to pour down, causing the whole backyard to turn into a gigantic pond, or lake I should say...I became annoyed at the site, so I leave the window and I walk into the bathroom, getting ready to take a shower.
Ayano's POV (in her dreams though since she is asleep):
I stand there in a middle of a meadow, with flowers painting in beautiful colors everywhere. I look around my surrounding and I can only see trees, that made a border around the meadow. It was a beautiful site, it was like the perfect place to be, my sanctuary. Little animals like rabbits, mice, and even foxes scurried around bushes, and small plants, scouring for food to eat. I notice a little pond to my left and I walk towards it, when I reach it I can see my reflection. My eyes widen, as I notice that i'm wearing a pearly white dress, that had two puffy sleeves, with a red bow where my waist is. My red hair is also braided to the side, tumbling down my shoulder. Then I notice, I look as I did when I was 12.
My hands begin to tremble, and the water that is at the tip of my feet, begins to ripple, and the center of the small pond begins to push itself up. I take a step back, as the water grows taller and taller, finally turning into a tall cylinder, which was a couple of inches taller than me. I stare at it for a while, and right when I take a step towards it, the water drops revealing a person. My eyes widen even more when I realize who it is. A boy with dark raven hair, with aqua blue eyes that could make anyone fall into them. He gave me a smile, and tears began to form in my eyes.
"R-riku?" I ask as I begin to walk towards him, not caring that I was walking into the water. He stood there not moving at all, but he had a smile on his face still. "Riku!" I yelled as I ran towards him as fast as I can, with tears streaming down my face. When I reach him, I give him a hug, but my body goes through his and I stand there in shock. He's now behind me, and as I turn to see him, the sky turns black, and the meadow of once beauty turns into a dark, wasteland of death and decay. Riku then turns around to face me and glares, his eyes piercing into me.
"You let me die…..it was all your fault...it's your fault that the youma killed me!" He screamed in a deeper tone. My eyes widen, and I can feel a stabbing pain in my heart, but before I could say anything the ground beneath me collapses, and I land on a cold rock bed. Pain screeches throughout my body. I stagger up and I summon some amber colored flames to shoot their way down the hallway. A r-rock cavern? No….it must be that place… I make my way down the hallway, with the help of the lights, and I finally reach an old, and rustic steel door that towered over me. It had jewels throughout the seams which made a delicate pattern. I press my hand lightly on the door and it opens without any effort needed.
I gulp, knowingly prepared of what was going to happen or be there in that room. I walk into it and as I summon my flames, they don't summon. The door then slammed shut behind me and silence filled the room. After around 2 minutes of standing there in fear, a dim light shines, revealing a man who I could never mistaken. Bernhardt….anger filled every square inch of my body, and he smirked at me. "Welcome Ayano! It's been a while hasn't it?" I cut him off, "You bastard, why are you….why am I hear? Why the hell are you in my dreams!?" I snarl.
"Now now….lets be rational about thi-" I screech back at him, " Rational? Why should I when the one bastard that I hate is standing right infront of me?!" my breathing begins to get heavier, making it hard to breath.
"I just love that face of yours," he smirks, "a face that shows sorrow, suffering, and hatred!" He begins to walk towards me but I take a step back. "Oi? did you by any chance get to see Riku?" he asked in a taunting voice. I immediately burst with anger.
"I knew it, so you w-where behind it….." I said in a defeated tone. He nods his head and a large smirk crawls it's way up his face at a quick pace. He then places his hands on my shoulders and pulls me closer to him, to where our faces are only a few centimeters away.
"I did it just for y-o-u," he whispers, and my eyes grow wider, and colder. My first balled up enough to where my nails dig into my skin, causing blood to drip on the ground, and then my teeth grinded against one another. I didn't say anything, I couldn't...it was as if I wasn't able to talk. He lets out a chuckle, and says, "since I love seeing you in pain," he then pulls me even closer to him to where our lips are close to touching, and he says, "my l-i-t-t-l-e doll"
I snapped….but my expression was hidden away from him, but a tear managed to slide down my pale cheek. He chuckled again, and I felt so useless...I wanted to disappear…..I wanted to just….die….but before he could finally get control over me, I push him away, and I stumble backwards causing me to fall. He becomes shocked, and then regains himself.
"I would be aware, this isn't just a dream, it will be reality," He smirks again and the whole places goes black again. I felt defeated….. and these words echoed through my head..
It was all of your fault! It should've been you not me…. I did it all for you~ I love the expression of defeat, sorrow, pain, and hatred on your face…...my little doll….did you meet him? Why did he die? Was it really all of my fault? Of course it was…. I put my hands on my head and I tighten my grip on my hair and lean my head on the ground, unable to stop the tears from falling down. "s-stop…." I say in a shaky voice. My body begins to shake violently, and I clench my fists tighter, "Stop it….." I repeated... the words continued to echo in my head. "Stop it!" I screeched out loud. My body began to grow hot as if fire was burning me. "Leave me alone!" I yelled again.
My body continued to shake but the feeling of heat, flames, warmth, these feelings began to take over, and then flames began to flicker off of my body…..They were blue, the exorcist flame. It then bursted rapidly from my body burning the room completely, causing all of my bad thoughts, my pain, sorrow, and hatred to all disappear. I loosened my fists and looked up, to see light beaming back in...I finally am able to stand up, and the flame disappears. As I stare up into the sky, the light vanishes, and clouds of darkened grey, and even light shades of black begin to take over. Then rain begins to fall, but I just stand there, allowing myself to get drenched.
Kazuma's POV:
I finally get out of the bathroom, while drying my hair, and I look over at Ayano. She had tear stains on her face, and she was shaking, I walked over to her since I was worried, "Ayano? Ayano, wake up…" I shook her arm a little, they I shook her more but there still was no response.
Ayano's POV:
As I stand there the whole scene begins to shake violently. I stumble a bit and I hear a voice roar from above…
"Ayano! Ayano come on wake up! Ayano!" I notice the voice….it was Kazuma's…...I then close my eyes and then when I re-open them I see Kazuma towered over me shaking my arms. He seemed worried. "-ano….Ayano are you okay?" he asked in an uncertain tone. I quickly look at my surroundings, and I noticed that I am in a large bed, in a decent sized room…...Kazuma's room… I think to myself. I sit up and answer, "yeah i'm fine…"
He lets out a sigh and he falls into a chair as if he was exhausted. I stand up and I notice that my head is throbbing.
Damn another migraine….I think to myself. "Where are you going?" Kazuma asked. I turn my attention back towards him and I simply reply, "to go kill some things…" He let out a small chuckle.
"Um, why?" he asked and I quickly snarled back, "because I want to! Thats why!" I shout back at him in annoyance.
He smirks, gosh I can't even explain how much I hate it. "But there is still thunder and lightning threatening to start up. I turn towards him with one of my eyes twitching and I say, " I guess I can stay for a little longer….." He laughs. I then say, "but i'm going to go and talk to Jugo…" before he can say anything I leave the room, and I walk down the hallway towards the turn and when I reach it I just lay my back against the wooden post. Releasing a sigh.
This is going to be a very long week…...I think to myself, as I get back up and I begin to start towards Jugo's main meeting room.
