Chapter 11.

Arikuno glanced at Esmae, and then back towards Seth. Sakura helped Seth up with a friendly smile, while Esmae was resting peacefully. "So... That's why Khyrsalis was her escape..." Malice murmured and glanced around, looking towards the white crystal door. Arikuno sighed and rubbed the back of his neck shyly, glancing towards Esmae. "So what happened to Esmae's eye?" Seth curiously poked Esmae, seeing if she was alive. Esmae slowly got up, rubbing her eye softly groaning. "What..... Happened?" Arikuno embraced Esmae in a tight squeeze, smiling. Seth smiled and joined in on the hug, along with Sakura and Malice. "Esmae love... Is everything ok?" Esmae nodded, her right eye color changed completely to a bright emerald. She quivered a little, regaining her balance slowly. "Esmae?...." Arikuno picked up Esmae gently, carrying her out of the basement. "Wait! Arikuno!" Sakura tried getting arikuno's attention but it never worked. "What will happen to her?" Seth stared at malice awaiting for an answer "something... That will make her crave for death."

Arikuno placed Esmae in the courtyard which was blooming with roses, smiling as the two of them sat on the edge of a crystal fountain. "Esmae... I....I might... Have feelings for you.." Arikuno softly placed his hand on her cheek, smiling while gazing into her eyes. "I have some feelings for you too!" Esmae smiled and glanced at arikuno, slowly leaning in for a kiss. "I just uhm... Remembered I had to do something." Arikuno got up quickly leaving behind Esmae as he walked towards a garden filled with gorgeous flowers. "A....Arikuno?" Her voice squeaked a little, she looked towards a beautiful Rose and picked it. Her hand was placed on the thorns, she dropped the Rose as she stem was coated in her blood. Her fingertips dripped of her royal red blood, she grabbed the Rose carefully, following arikuno by 12 meters behind. She slowly looked to arikuno who was sitting with a girl below a cherry tree. "No.... It can't be...." The wind blew softly as her eyes filled with tears, her hair brushed out of her face softly, revealing her black laced eye patch. Giggling and smooching came from where the two were, arikuno smiled "Stormy, will you be mine?" The girl who's name was 'stormy' smiled and nodded, the two of them embraced in a kiss and cuddle. Esmae's heart was shattered, she couldn't even speak. She quivered and didn't want what she saw to be true, her legs trembling in realization. She glanced to a black rope, then back to the two couple. Could this be her final last memory? Esmae shook her head she couldn't what she saw. Her stomach was filled with dead butterflies, yet she still felt some sort of feelings for him. She grabbed the rope with anguish and wiped her tears with the thorns. So, this was it. This was the day, the memory, the second that

Esmae Masako, would finally end it all.

Seth quickly ran outside, followed by Avery, sakura, and malice. Seth sighed as he tried searching for Esmae before she actually ended it all. "Esmae!!!" Sakura shouted loudly as she spotted Esmae slowly slipping the rope over her neck. Seth bolted towards the cherry tree that she would hang herself. "Please please please Esmae!!! You'll be ok!!!" Esmae glanced towards Seth, smiling as her eyes filled with tears again. Her hand coated in a warmth blood coating. "It's..... All over now..."
