K project: Untold Story

Chapter 6 - Red King and his Queen.

[ 6 years Later..]

[HOMRA bar, 3:00 pm]

"Where's Mikoto?" Totsuka asks Izumo over the bar as her stirs his glass of water with a straw.

"In his room, which is strange, he's usually down here by now." Izumo answers his question with worry till a bright idea pops into his mind. "Yo! Princess can I ask a favor?"

"Ugh can you quit calling me that, I'm not some whiney little girl anymore." A femine voice comes from the corner of the bar which a albino in her 20's, sits as she puffs out smoke.

"Okay, My Queen." He teases her which also fails.

"I prefer that than princess or my name." She stubs her cigarette walking towards them, her hair was down as it reaches her hips with ruby red lips as if she was snow white, she wore a simple sleeveless black dress and slip on's.

"Or snow white~?" Izumo continues his teasing.

"What's the favor? She dodges the the question as she sighs.

"Can you check on Mikoto? He's acting weird lately." Izumo explains to her as he cleans a glass mug.

"What happens if he's in a bad mood, he's hard to handle isn't he?" Totsuka looks worried at Izumo's plan.

"Mikoto isn't that violent but he would never lay a finger on a woman in that kind of manner, especially if it's Kasai, let's say he has a promise to keep." Izumo briefs to Totsuka.

"I'll go and check on him." She answers as she glides gracefully up the stairs to his room.

She knocks on the door and waits for a response.

...No response.

"Mikoto?" She walks in to see a man sitting on the throne like chair as flames emits from him. She walks inside the room and shuts the door. "The others are worried about you so I came to check on you." She gracefully walks towards him.

His response is silence as he looks at the floor with her forehead resting on his hands while his elbows rests upon his knees, as if it was a King making a decision.

"Don't want to talk today huh?" she sits in front of him. "Your stressed, I can tell. Can you tell me why?"

Only a growl from him is the response she gains, he still remains looking at the floor. Silence was the best sign of when he was angry, but the deadliest as you can never tell what move he'll make next.

"Mikoto" She reaches a hand out towards his hand within the flames.

He suddenly lifts his head up, his golden eyes glares at her as the room falls into silence. "Don't touch be, you'll burn."

Kasai retreats her hand and thinks to herself. "So that's why you're stressed." She smiles letting out a small giggle as she cups his hands gently, his aura surrounds her hands but to Mikoto's surprise it didn't harm her. "See?"

"It's not that, I can't control it." Mikoto sighs. "It's annoying."

"That's because you don't have enough clan members." She explains.

"What do you mean by that?" He asks her slightly confused.

"The more clan members, the more it's easier to control, basically clan members are your vessels for your aura." She places one hand on her insignia which is on her chest just above her heart, though her's was different, it has the mark of HOMRA but his sword of damocles on top of it.

"I see. What a pain." He sighs lazily. "Why was I given this job." He rubs his head as his flames begins to vanish.

"YO! KASAI I NEED YOU!" Izumo yells from downstairs.
