MikaYuu One-Shot Collection

Don't Look Back

This post is not Mikayuu, the two main characters are my oc's, Arianne Andover and Zoe Murren. Akane is also alive. Mikayuu is still here, however. Strong Mikayuu for the win. It's really long, like 5,000 words, so enjoy, I guess. It's really just some canon divergence, told in different point's of view. 

~Arianne~

Looking back on it now, my choice to follow the Hyakuya group from a safe distance was a pretty good choice. I now know where to escape and how to get there. And I may or may not be running a secret smuggling ring to get kids out of Sanguinem. I make a face at that thought. I don't like that I called it smuggling. More like beneficiary human trafficking. Oh god no, that sounds so much worse.

~ 2 Years Ago~

"We can escape, Yuu-chan!" I remember hearing as I leaned against the wall connecting the house next to mine to mine. The walls were paper-thin, allowing for easy eavesdropping and did next to nothing to shield against the cold. I gasped slightly at the thing the blonde one said. I know it was the blonde one because only he could be so enthusiastic.

"What? No. That's stupid, Mika." I knew that one was Yuu. I've talked to him before. He's actually pretty interesting. We share the same brooding spot and all. I dropped my head, knowing Yuu was right. There was no escaping this cage.

"But I have a map and a gun!" Apparently named Mika said. A gun? I perked up, glancing towards the door, shuffling quickly and silently to the door, opening it softly, and closing it with a soft swish. I climbed up onto the ledge above their door, waiting. A few minutes later, they headed out, and I followed some ways behind. Close, but not too close. I wouldn't be caught if they were. They obviously didn't know the ways of there tunnels, from the way they just nearly escaped a guard. Not once had I stepped into the light. Until they climbed stairs into a glistening marble room.

There was one door at the end, and I knew immediately that it was the way out.

"That's it!" Mika exclaimed, pointing to the exit. Yuu and the kids smiled, but I knew this would be no happy thing. A shark was lurking in the shadows.

I climbed up onto a ledge, far and high up, getting a perfect bird's eye view of what I knew would happen.

"I just can't stop playing this game, lovelies. I really tried but I just can't. I love seeing that look right there on your faces. Of having everything you worked for undermined. Of crushing all your hopes and dreams and sprinkling them into oblivion~." I felt sick at his words, unable to help any of the children he slaughtered. Couldn't move, couldn't blink, couldn't look away. I wanted to, God how I wanted to, but my eyes remained glued on the scene playing out below me.

I watched as every child fell, a bright red pool of blood forming a brilliant halo around them. Suddenly, my throat felt dry and constricted. I swallowed, making the effect worse. I grimaced as I continued watching the scene below, until there was only a girl with copper hair and Yuu and Mika left. I knew that noble would leave the two boys for last, but something about that girl. I wanted desperately to save her. Before I could reach my hand out to her, however, the noble ended her futile attempts at running in one graceful swipe, her blood spattering on the floor, blossoming in a sickening flower around her, eyes still lucid. So she was alive.

I kept my eyes on the girl with copper hair, her bright warm eyes staring directly at me. The way her gaze never wavered from mine, she knew I was there. I pressed a single finger to my lips, a scream interrupting my motions. I turned my head, and almost immediately regretted it. The sight that greeted my eyes tore at my heart, ripping and breaking it.

Mika's arm was a few feet from his actual body. There was a whole in his chest, blood coming out of his mouth. Yuu was crying, trying to drag him out. Trying to save him. I felt tears prick at the corner of my eyes, my heart breaking for two kids and their family that I didn't even know.
