Lost memory // X Shu sakamaki

Chapter 7 : Don't go!

' "Akia look! I finally done with it" I raise my head to see a beautiful snow white butterfly flying right in front of me. I hear giggles from the place. I look around and I can see hundreds of those butterflies. The grass was soft and long, the sun was warm. I hear a giggle. I look around to meet a pair of blue eyes. "Akia, look! Isn't it beautiful?" The girl Asks. I look into her palms to see another butterfly, a really big one. "Akia, why are you crying? You're such a crybaby!" The girl says. I touch my cheeks to discover they are wet. "Ne ne, Oni chan~ It's fine. I will always be here" This girl says and embrace me. Her soft blonde hair touching my forehead. The smell... so good...so familiar. "Why I feel like I know you, but I can't remember you?" I sobbed into her chest. She look into my eyes and smiled. "Because You were given another chance. Use it. Don't die" '

Akia woke up into a living hell. Her head ached, her hands burned and her legs hurt too. She opened her eyes to see nothing. "W-Where am I?" She whispers aloud. She tries to move her hands, but she can't. Her hands were chained up. Her right leg was chained to the floor as well.
'This is bad' Akia thought.
Suddenly, something from her eyes was removed. She could look around and see she was in a stoned room. "Where am I? Who is there?" She asked and from the shadow came out Reiji.
"Y-you! What have you done!?" She yells at him but her chest hurts so it's sounds like a whisper.
"I have warned you this would happen" He chuckled, his blood red eyes burn into her.
"Since I met you, I can't understand why you are so attract to my foolish brother. Your sister was the same as you... and because of the sorrow I went through someone have to be punished, right Akia?" –"You are insane. I don't have a freaking sister! I don't have, never had and never will!" Akia shout out.
"So let me tell you a little story. Long long time ago, like an accident of the fate, a little girl with purple hair and yellow eyes was born into a poor family. Her mother was good hearted, but because of the hard time in the village, and the need to raise a girl, she turn into a lewd woman which was sleeping with every guy in the village. I can understand her, she didn't have a choice though. When the girl reached to the age of 6, in the village were discovered the 'blood sucking demons'. Your mother achieved the nickname "Witch" and her life needed to end. They took her and burned her in front of your eyes. You were lost in your life, didn't have a clue, but a 'good' man appeared and let you have one chance to live your life as a vampire. You didn't want to die alone, so you accepted his words and with that you moved to the other corner of the country, into a little wood. In there you met a family, a good one. They were really wealthy and good hearted. They had a daughter. You became under the name "Cho" thanks to them. You and the girl became a really good sisters. You had a family, you were happy. One day the daughter got lost in the forest, and the 'good' man found her when he was on his way home with his wife. The two took her with them and gave her some food and a place to stay. A little boy saw her, and for the first time in his life, he felt love. It was his first love. The girl was so beautiful, with eyes like the sky, and hair like the sun. Her smile was everything. The boy tried his best to be next to her, but she didn't seemed to adore his life – she didn't like to know more things, to study, to become intelligent and wise. She preferred his foolish brother, who was a little bit older then him. His brothers attitude was going well with hers, so they spend more and more time together. He made her smile. He made her laugh, not me. After some time the girl went back home. The day she was back, vampire hunters attacked the place and her parents died. You and the girl run into the woods, but when you thought you were saved, I relisted some wolfs and that was the end for the two of you.
The 'good' man, my father, the vampires king, came by accident to the place. He felt sorry for the girls. Just then the girl with the blonde hair spoke. She begged to give her sister another chance, to give you, a second chance. The man chuckled and said he already gave you a second chance. The girl promised him, that after 100 years, When the two brothers will fight and brothers war, you will be the one who stop it. And here you are, born again after 100 years. That man gave you the chance to live on your own. That man gave you the money and the opportunity to study and meet us once again."


Akia was left speechless. She couldn't understand. "Confusing, isn't it?" He asked. "I...I..." She couldn't talk. 'I...It can't be true... he is lying...of course...It...can't be...' Few tears started to flow down. "Shu...knows about it...?" She asked, her face hidden behind her purple hair. "Even if he would know, I don't think he would care about it. After all, the only reason he kept you alive is because your blood" Reiji smirked. He could see how much pain he caused. "I have to kill you, you see? If you will be the only thing that stops me from killing my brother, it should be it, therefore, due to your stupid actions, you really annoyed me. I will make it much slower and painful then you think" He smiled and his eyes were shining.
She didn't say a word. 'If he wants to kill me, I don't mind. It's not like if I get out of here, I could live my life as I used to'.
"I will give you a taste of what it would feel like the next few days" He smiled and took out a whip.
'My sister...That girl is...from my dreams'
"Be prepared"
'Mom...my mom... is a witch'
"Are you listening to me?"
'I'm just a food... for Shu...'
"Here it comes"
'Maybe I should just die'

"AHHHAAAAAAHHHAHHAHA!!!!!"

'Where am I...' Akia thought as she opened her eyes slowly. She looked around. 'My...room' She immediately recognized it. 'What...happened...' She thought as she sat up. 'My body...hurts'...
From the corner of the room she noticed two blue eyes staring at her.
"How are you?" He asked. His voice, his deep yet soft voice.
"What...happened...Shu...?" His own name made him shiver.
"Reiji, took you and hurt you. I took you out of there. How do you feel?" He asked.
"Reiji...what...?" She looked at her hands. Scars. Cuts. BLOOD.
"It...hurts" Tears started to flow down her face and hit the bed.
He got up and walked towards her.
"I think," He started, "That we should stop seeing each other".
His words hit her like a fist in her stomach.
"What...do you mean?" She asked, shaking.
"You are suffering because of me. You are hurt because of me. I think we should break our so called relationship here." He said. His sharp eyes pierced her. So weak, so powerless, so...wrong.
"We can continue this. We have a connection of predator and prey." He was about to leave the room.

"D-Don't go!" She screamed out, her tears still flowing.
"You promised me, y-you can't go! Don't let Reiji win!" Her voice was shakingjust as much as her body was. She felt so cold and alone, and she knew, that ifhe will live her now, that if he get out of this door, this would be their last time together.
"I'm not a part of this game, Akia. I'm leaving you, I don't want to be troubled anymore." His voice broke her like she was a glass. He disappeared into the shadow.
She hugged her pillow. "Shuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed into her pillow,knowing he won't come back. "SHU!!!" she kept breaking down, she lost him. "DON'TGO!!!"
