The Promise

continuation

"You both look so happy and in love ...what happened?"

I went to her and took the frame out of her hand and put it in a drawer.

"Look now you know im not lying so let's go we have been here longer then I thought we would be"

Alena looked like she wanted to say something but didn't. She walked with me out of the room and as she went to her brother and boyfriend I locked the door and put the key away.

The guy Kei walked up to me.

"My sis says your telling the truth but the question is what do we do now?"

"I want her to stay with me here"

"Are u crazy, she is an international idol people would wonder where she is.. Also think about her family they would be worried sick, you can't do that!"

"I AM HER FAMILY!!"

I wanted to shout out to him but I kept my mouth shut.

"You know you can't..."

"Kazu....?"

I looked and saw Memi at the corner of the living room looking scared.
I had almost forgotten that Memi was scared when I got angry.... She knew I was angry. No one else knew but she knew ... She was the only one that could see right through me.
I excused myself and went over to her and patted her head gently to let her know I was okay.

"What's wrong Memi where you bored without me?"

She rolled her eyes but the look of concern was still on her face, it reminded me of the day I argued with some people about this house years ago.

"Are your friends staying over?"

"Yes, is that okay with you?"

She looked over at them and slowly got closer to me.

"Dont worry Memi, they don't bite"
I laughed.

"No, what if I hurt them by accident, what If I can't control it"

They looked over at us confused.
But I knew what Memi was talking about, her powers and the darkness that was coming after her ever since she was young.

"Maybe that's what took her away?" I thought.

"What is she talking about?"

"Oh nothing just when we were younger she was scared of the dark and would bump into people because she couldn't see in the dark"

"No Kazu.. The...mmmmph"

I covered her mouth and led her away from them and into my bedroom down the hall. I let her go and she gasped for breath after awhile she spoke.

"Why did you do that! , what if I really hurt them or the bad people come for me"

I gently touched her shoulders and looked at her.

"Memi remember what I told you, you can't tell no one about your powers or about the bad people okay"

"But Kazu ... They will..."

"Don't worry no one will come take you away I will protect you no matter what"

"What about your friends?"

"They will be fine I promise"

I held her and she touched the locket on my neck.

"Promise me you will never take this off again"

"I've told you I won't, besides you even said that as long as I have this on I'll be safe.. Its not like it can break"

She said nothing but hugged me tightly.

"Right?"

"Yeah your right" she whispered.

A few weeks passed and Memi was getting along with Alena and them which was good because I had work to do but I didn't like how Kei was always so close to her.

Alena and Ryo decided to go see a play and dragged Kei with them.

"Why do I have to go, why can't I stay here?"

"Shut up and come.. They need alone time"

"What?"

"Kei just admit it, you lost now let's go find you a new love"

"Ryo once she gets her memory back she will forget him"

"No... She won't because once she fully remembers everything, she will remember the boy she has been in love with for years" Alena said.

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing let's go" she said.

They dragged him away and I was grateful for the silence.
I was in my study when I heard Memi scream my name.

"KAZUUUUU!!!!!"

I ran out the study and looked for her but couldn't find her.

"Memi, where are you?"

"Come and find me?"

Oh I see shes playing her favorite game hide and find.
I looked for her for over an hour but I couldn't find her.

"That's right I never could find her, when we played she usually would come out and say you took to long"

Kazu, hurry and find me"

"Alright, can you at least give me a hint"

"I'm really high in the sky"

"Hmm the roof then" I thought.

I went to the window closest to the roof and climbed the roof but she wasn't there.

"Damn where is she?"

*giggles*

"I can hear her but I can't see her" I thought.

"Come and find me"

I looked everywhere in the house even at our secret base but she was no where to be found.
I was getting worried because she wasn't saying "come find me anymore"

"Memi, where are you?"

"I'm sorry Kazu, I think my time is up, I have to go.."

"No!.. go.. go where?"

"Its seems they found out that I'm remembering"

"What are you talking about?"

"Kazu catch me"

"Huh?"

Just then I saw her falling from the sky and I caught her.

"Don't do that, that's dangerous Memi!"

She looked at me and she looked really tired and weak."

"Kazu, please hurry and find me"

She passed out in my arms and she was sweating and breathing heavily I ran inside the house and got her meds and gave her her shot.

"Memi what is going on.. why are you telling me to find you, when your right in front of me, all I need to do is to get you to remember again .. Right?"

I called them and they raced back here and I told them what happened.

"Is Yumi gonna be okay?"

"Yeah Alena she should be, she is sleeping peacefully we just have to wait until she wakes up.

"Kazuma do u mind if I talk to you alone?"

"Uh sure"

Alena and me went to the living room to talk.

"What's up?"

"Your gonna leave again, aren't you?"

"What makes you say that?"

"Come on Kazuma, you still haven't figured out who I am?"
