Moonlight The Dim Light

Chapter 48

It's now the day we do our plan...make the worst decision we've ever made just for one person....I know...why is worth it?
Because this person has made my life worth living much more than before... And now I decided to keep living with that person....

Yoh

The group and I left Takahiro's house around five in the morning, we're ready and our plan is in our minds and it'll soon become reality once we encounter our enemy.
"Alright, we will sneak in and if we have to, kill anyone in our way, Momo, you and Takeo keep watch and you tell us through Nobuyuki's mind if someone's aware of our plan."
"Right." I told everyone their positions once we get to that one area. Nobuyuki my back up Takahiro haves eyes that can see where the enemy is located, Takeshi is his back up since we're both splitting up. After hours of walking we took a ten minute break and then we continued another hour of walking, and we finally made it. Where Sora is being held in. "Alright let's split up don't get caught." Everyone nodded and we all split up and ran towards the castle like building with a blue like barrier, in case we had Takeo prepared to take down another barrier if we were gonna deal with one. "Nobuyuki, get in touch with Takeo." Nobuyuki nodded and knee exactly what I wanted him to ask for. "He says it's some sort of sense barrier. Ya know, like once we enter it's safe but they'll know we're here." I cursed under my breath. "Alright, tell him we're just gonna have to fight once we grab Sora and be quick." Nobuyuki nodded. "For now, just enter and we'll see what this Akuma has to say..." I closed my eyes trying to prepare myself "there's a fifty- fifty chance I might get killed during the conversation, if so stick to the plan no matter what...." Everyone stood silent then nodded. "Let's go." We all entered the barrier and shadows and guys with spears had surrounded the area. "So you arrived, finally hm? Well only let the name of Yoh enter the building." Everyone almost complained that How they needed to be by my side for reasons, but not saying anything about our plans. "Guys, remember..." Everyone stopped and stood silent again. "Tch...let me go with him..." The guy in the cloak starred down at nobuyuki from the top of the edge of the building. "Fine, only you." I looked back at Nobuyuki.
What are you doing??
I thought in my head talking to nobuyuki in our minds.
Don't worry...
I tried to ignore the fact that I'm angry deep inside, yet just continued. We both walked in the building and inside looked more of a castle, we walked up the long wide curved stairs.
I can't believe you're following long, you were supposed to wait outside with the others...
I looked forward only to make sure the guards don't see or noticed that we're speaking to each other through our minds.
Well I can't let you do this alone...I don't want them to just kill you as if it was like some ambush. Nobuyuki said as we find ourselves in front of big doors. We both had to push the doors open and found my father sitting in some throne and Akuma next to him with someone next to him too. "...! Yoh that's--!"
My eyes widened when I saw that it was Sora, wearing some sort of white dress that stopped to her thigh half way, part ripped in her chest, but bandaged back with some bandages and a little blood stain on it. My stomach felt disgusted the fact that it seems something's been removed from Sora. I started to snarl "You said you wouldn't do anything to her, what the hell!?" Akuma chuckled and had stood behind her, hands on her shoulders. She looks so traumatized...
My teeth gritted, Sora's eyes left wide opened as if she saw something worst than a nightmare. "WHAT DID YOU DO!?" My father... No kanashimi had let out a laugh as if something funny had happened to him. "Heh...Her hearts been removed as you can see, it's been replaced with an empty dairiseki, so whatever emotion fills up the dairiseki she will forever feel that way...she's still a blank canvas right now, ready to be painted on." Nobuyuki just trembled in anger as if he wanted to do something. "Now, shall we begin the trade?" Nobuyuki felt angered "HOW THE HELL CAN THIS TRADE WORK!? YOU GUYS LIED!!! YOU--" Kanashimi had pulled out a shadow dark purple sword out and as it pierced Nobuyuki's chest, my eyes widened. "Kh...!" Nobuyuki coughed up blood. "NO!!!!!! NOBUYUKI!!!" Nobuyuki fell back and guards held me back as I try to get to Nobuyuki. "It's fine....Yoh..." Kanashimi walked up to Nobuyuki with a smirk, I watched struggling like hell.
"Ahh, the Amethyst fire is in you...we can change the person of the trade. Switch my son, with this boys life."
Sora had her sense and noticed what was happening she reached out he arms weakly. "N-No...!" She fell on her knees and she held to her heart. "Nobuyuki...!" Akuma had held her back but holding back since Sora didn't have that much power.
"Sora!!" I looked back to see Sora cough up blood. "ARGH!!!!" Without realizing, kanashimi was absorbing Nobuyuki's power little by little. Finally breaking free, I punched Kanashimi but he managed to dodge and flew back on his feet. Nobuyuki fell to the ground with a huge hole in his stomach. I felt my face go cold and chills down my spine when Nobuyuki was hardly breathing and he slowly looked at me.
"Yoh...finish me off...if I die...they won't be able to take my power...take Sora and the others and run out of here..."
"BASTARD! IM NOT DOING THAT!!" Nobuyuki chuckled but coughed up blood a bit. "Yoh...buddy..." He slowly lifted his shaky hand with two fingers pointing at my forehead, and finally poked it. "Heh...I finally got to do it...buddy.... I will forever love my brother....Yoh...." I felt my face went pale when his hand had slipped off my face. I grabbed his hand and squeezed it. Trying to hold in the grieve I slowly got up, taking my sword out as I stare down at Nobuyuki. "Yeah....I'll forever love my brother too....amethyst boy...." I slowly pointed the sword at his chest, and lifted my sword and stabbing it into his heart. With my hands still over the bottom of the handle and I lean against it a bit, Kanashimi cursed as he yelled at the fact he lost the chance to get the power. "KILL THEM ALL!!!!" I noticed Sora was on the ground next to me her body over Nobuyuki's and she sobbed. "Sora...." Forgetting the fact guards are charging towards us, I took a couple of spears go through me. Everything around me had gone deaf. Sora's scream was so muffled out yet I can hear her shouting my name and Nobuyuki's.
"YOH!!!!! NOOOO!!!!!"

Takahiro

Everyone had their backs together fighting against the guards. "WHY IS THIS HAPPENING!?" I gritted my teeth, killing some spearman. "WHERE'S NOBUYUKI AND YOH!?" Takeo slowly stopped fighting and froze there. As he slowly hold t his head and his face with a traumatized look. "No....Nobuyuki...."
I noticed what Takeo is talking about, but clashed with a swordsman. "TAKESHI, Get Takeo and get out of here!!" Takeshi yelled back "RIGHT!" And took Takeo and they both ran off. "GAH!!" Momo had Ben separated by me and had been surrounded by guards which they were carrying her separately, guards holding her legs and arms, one tried to tie a rope around her neck. "NO!" I grabbed Momo and appeared on the building. "Why did you send them off!?" I slowly looked down as the guards enter back in the building to reach to us. "Your brother....he's dead...."
