The Devil's Deal!

Chapter 7: Loss And Abandonment

Mia's P.O.V

Rose looked shocked, as she made this face while looking at me. The face looked like I had said something stupid, but she's not doing her normal act when she bullies me. "U-Um sis, I-" Right as I was about to ask what was wrong with Sis, we heard a voice behind us. "What are you two talking about?" I saw Rose look back as quickly as possible, with me following her, now looking at mom. "U-Um we were talking about So-" I couldn't finish what I was saying, because Rose had covered my mouth, as she instead said. "Nothing mom, don't worry about it." I don't know, the way she said that sounded like she was mad, but hurt at the same time.

"Hmm, well ok. I'm heading out, I'll be back in a little bit." She smiled softly as I pushed Rose's hand off as I said. "Bye, mom!" I was smiling as I looked back at Rose. "Ok, now what was that about?" I heard her sigh as she walked away. "It was nothing sis... better get ready for school Mia..." I watched as she was walking away, hearing her call me 'Mia' instead of 'Sis', it hurt. She's never called me Mia, unless something happened, something bad. I looked down slowly. "Sora... why does that name seem so familiar..." I felt a sharp pain in my chest when I thought of that name.

I felt tears roll down my face, but I didn't know why, I just couldn't stop crying. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, I reached for my pocket, as I noticed the burn marks from before. I felt it calling to me, I reached for it. "Mia, you ready?" I heard my sister call, snapping me back into reality. I backed up, heading to my room. "Yeah, give me a few minutes!" I yelled as I ran to my room, getting ready for school. A few minutes went by as I had put on a bright shirt, and a deep blue pair of pants. I grabbed a jacket, looking at it for a few seconds. "A black jacket? Where did I get this from?'' I don't know where I got it from, but I decided to put it on, and as I had expected it was a bit too big. I decided to keep it on, it seemed to go well with blue and all, I grabbed my bag and left my room. When I had closed my door, my sister was waiting for me by my door. She looked at me, and she looked shocked. "W-Where did you get that jacket..." I shrugged as I responded. "I don't know, it was just in my room."

I heard her sigh softly, with a bit of pain in her sigh. "Hey sis... are you alright?" I asked her as she nodded slowly, she turned away walking down the stairs to the front door. She stopped at the door and looked at me. "Remember no matter what, don't forget the person you truly love." As soon as she said that, she left the house, leaving me alone. "Don't... Don't forget the one I truly love? What does that mean?" I thought as I went downstairs, heading out to catch up with my sister.

Sora's P.O.V

I slowly opened my eyes, to have the sunlight in my face, I looked at the ceiling. The color was pink, with some green patches. "It's been almost a week now... and I haven't heard Higetsu's voice since that fight." I sighed as I rolled over, to see a woman next to me, I quickly sat up taking the blanket with me, uncovering her. She had only a shirt on, as I blushed looking away. "C-Cherry please wake up!' I yelled softly, slowly, and gently shaking her. A few seconds later she wakes up, sitting up rubbing her eyes, yawning softly and cutely. "Mmm, Sora? What's wrong?" she asked, looking at me half asleep, "W-Why are you in bed w-with me, a-and why are you only wearing an s-shirt?!" She looked down slightly, thinking or just processing what I said. I saw her face flush red as she quickly hopped out of the bed. "U-Um, I-I gotta go now!" She quickly ran out of the room for a few seconds before running back in. "Huh? C-Cherry what are you do-." Before I could finish my sentence, Cherry grabbed me, pulling me to the door. "A-Actually you leave, this is my room!" The next thing I knew, I was being thrown out of the room.

"What just happened?" I just looked back to see her door closed, I sighed as she quickly opened the door, as she quickly threw a set of clothes. "Here, now get ready for school!" I nodded, picking up the clothes, with her closing the door quickly. I headed for the bathroom. I entered the bathroom closing the door, as I sat my clothes on the sink, and faced the shower. I reached for the faucet in the shower, turning on the water, adjusting it to be slightly hot, but not too hot. I got undressed, stepping into the shower letting the water hit me. "It's already been one week since what happened with Higetsu..." I sighed as I grabbed the soap, slowly scrubbing My body down. I let the water wash away the soap on me, and I then started to wash my hair. "I ended up killing Higetsu..." After washing the hair wash out of my hair, I stepped out of the shower, reaching for a towel. I dried myself out looking in the mirror. "Or did I?" I turned my head slightly to see a mark on my neck, a Pentagram. "The mark has yet to go away, but Higetsu's dead! I killed him" I yelled in my head, as my body started to heat up slightly, quickly realizing this, I tried to calm down. I touched the mark with my fingers, the mark was hot, like a mini fire. "If he's still alive he may go after Rose and Phoebe..." I looked down thinking about what happened after the fight.
