Minako

Mayumi beats me and now has all the respect. My father ordered me to watch her. O R D E R E D me. The eldest. His favourite daughter.

"There was no need to bring me down here." Minako spoke. I turned to her as she sat in her cage.

"Well I'm ordered to protect you. I'll do it how I please." I said and turned away. Plus I don't trust your eyes.

"Minako, what happened to...what happened to Ren?" Mayumi asked and I glared at her.

"Father told me he collapsed. He's dying. Accept it." I stated bluntly. Your birth meant his death. You should've expected this to happen.

"There was no need to be-"

"Mayumi just shut up! I don't want to talk! I'm here by force!" I yelled at her and she got quiet.

I never saw father hold such care for Mayumi before. This makes no sense.

"I know you are upset that I beat you. Minako, I still care for you, and l-"

"SHUT UP! I hate liars!" I yelled grabbing the bars of her cage.

"Then you don't hate me.." Mayumi said and my eyes widened. "Minako, I love you. You are my sister. No fight, no power will change that. We don't see eye to eye and we aren't completely related, but that doesn't change how I feel."

She..she love me..

"Look at what I did to you, why would you still love me?" I asked her confused and she smiled.

"I can see you are in pain and you are confused." Mayumi stated.  "I've said rude things on the battlefield too, and I'm sorry.  I just..It hurts when you care and love someone, and they don't know how they feel back."

"Don't give me that look.  You may have everyone fooled but I can see threw your lie."  I stated.  "When you face Mika, the truth will come out.  Count on it."
