Black Star Story ~ A Star Can Love Too

Chapter 7

*Cassy's Point of View*

I begin to panic from the inside, trying to stop myself from telling Aden about my brother. He encourages me to continue, but I can't seem to bring out the words I want to tell him.

Its almost two years since I last talked about my brother, and its still hard for me to say. I feel the guilt surround me when I think of him, but suddenly talking about him, makes me want to disappear.

"I..." I try to say.

"Just take your time. No need to rush." He tells me. I nod, and swallow hard.

"My brother..Keita (Pronounced Keta yes its a guys name. X))" I curl my fist, making Aden pull his to mine. I stare at them, but he doesn't seem to mind.

"Go on." He gently says to me.

"He was my oldest brother, and he was also a weapon like me, but he was able to transform faster and easier than I could. In his first year in the academy, he turned a 3 Star Meister." I take a breathe and continue.

"He had a Meister who was actually his best friend. His name was Ruko. He knew me from when we were younger and took care of me when my parents or my brother couldn't."

"Where's is this Ruko guy anyways?" Aden asks. I shrug.

"I don't know. After the incident, he completely disappeared. No trace, no number, no nothing."

"And your brother?" I close my eyes, gently making me calm and smile sadly. I reopen my eyes and Aden shows worry. My sad smile stays still, and I proceed.

"My brother decided to take me to one of his missions. Ruko was worried, but Keita knew that I wouldn't get in the way. They headed to Korea where a kishin soul was killing people and well, stealing they're souls. Keita and Ruko told me to stay back and don't do anything stupid. I didn't do anything, and I followed they're order. Keita turned into a blade, long enough and thin enough to cut through the toughest wall. Ruko sliced and diced at the kishin soul, but something went wrong."

"What?" Aden getting inpatient, holding onto my hands in anxiety.

"The two of them didn't plan that other kishin souls would be around, and I was caught by one of them by the neck. I struggled and tried to call them out, but were too busy to turn. I kept squirming around until I accidentally punched the kishin. He let go of me, and I shouted to Ruko. He turned to me, and a sudden realization hit him. I was standing there yelling, and another kishin grabbed a hold of me. Ruko ran towards me, but Keita turned to himself and...he blocked an attack that was suppose to be for me. He saved me. He saved...me." I feel so much pressure on me, but it starts to disappear when I begin to cry.

"Cassy...I didn't know." He responds sincerely.

"I just wish he was here!" I lightly shout. "I want him here!" Aden grabs onto me, hugging me and tightening his arms around me I cry harder and I can't stop. I feel the sudden urge to destroy every kishin soul. But then, I suddenly feel dizzy and light-headed.

"Aden. You need to leave." I tell him.

"Huh?" He questions. "What are you talking about? I'm not leaving now that-" I look straight towards him. I feel pain, I feel like punching something. Aden seem to be worried, but then suddenly he frowns and turns to walk at the door. He opens it slightly and turns to look at me.

"You should let people help you, Cassy." He says before fully opening the door and walking out, closing the door behind him. I'm left alone and I suddenly feel... Lonely.

*Black Star's Point of View*

Stomping out of the elevator, I see Tsubaki sitting in one of the love seats. She seem to be into thought and if it's just me, she seems...mad of some sort. Na, I think it's just me.

I slowly walk up to her, taking her a bit by surprise. "Black Star." She gently says to me. I rub the back of my head, laughing a bit nervously.

"Hey! Since Cassy is feeling sick, how about we go eat something..together." I ask thoughtfully. She smiles gently. She stands up and walks next to me. We both head towards the hotels restaurant. Hanging out as friends and only that. Hehe. I think...

Sorry for the short chapter. I was actuslly really busy lately so, I really hope you guys enjoyed it!
