Intertwined Destiny

Chapter 6: Seirin

Chapter 6: Seirin

Entrusting Kuroko into Kise's hands, Akashi had a bad feeling this would not end well. No one at that time realized Kuroko's departure will be their last time meeting Kuroko. Akashi was fairly worried and concerned that his dear Kuroko will not return. Unforeseen disaster would befall, in a form of curses and unfortunate. Danger was encroaching closer cloaking the land of Teiko in a mass of negative emotions. It was prophesized destiny had been preordained signifying the world shall suffers in the hands of the tyrant rulers of Kirisaki Daiichi. Kuroko leaving the lands of Teiko was concordant to capitulating the hope of Teiko. Sun will not rise, crops do not harvest. Teiko was faced with tremendous shower of pelts, Scotch mist had hovered over the lands of Teiko, making it difficult for Teiko to be found, as if protecting Teiko in absolute defense before Kuroko returns. Humans who defy the law would be found themselves in a labyrinth, hallucinating through the thick mist dying of hunger. The lands of Teiko had been a forbidden land the elders had preached since the ancient days, humans of the present have defied their teachings, evolved to survive the world filled with evil, betrayal and deceit. The people of Teiko were also left with sadness and longing for their light to return. Although Kuroko was human, the people of Teiko had treated Kuroko like their own kin, unlike humans who did not possess the ability of conscience, ruling and dictating through authority and fear. Akashi's feelings influence the current plight of Teiko, as the master ruling the lands of Teiko. Like the people of Teiko, Akashi awaits eagerly the day his wife would return to Teiko.

"Kuroko-sama!" Kise stood in front of Kuroko, in attempts of protecting Kuroko at all costs. "Please stand back! Akashi-sama will not forgive the world if something were to happen. I will protect Kuroko-sama with my life!"

Kuroko had glared at his uncle. "Uncle Amaya, please get out of the way. What I do with my life is none of your concern." His voice was strained and insouciant. Kuroko was a specialist in making use of people's behaviours against his opponents. Because of his natural extraordinary observant ability, Kuroko was unable to express freely filled with colours, a variety of expressions. Many, like Midorima could never get a hang of what Kuroko was always thinking, keeping everything to himself and doing the unexpected. "Afterall, you abandoned me and made me a sacrifice to the devil."

Kuroko and Kise's clear irises had reflected pure hatred and anger, mirroring the tormented feelings of anguish harboring deep within themselves. The intensity of their stare had flinched humans sent to assassinate Kuroko. Not even in Kisaragi Amaya's wildest dream one day his nephew would be the fated child who will to stop his evil plans. He had cursed the child and his father for taking away his dear sister. To his surprise not only his nephew would be the one to stop his plans, his nephew was alive. Kisaragi Amaya then realized his nephew was no longer human. The spiritual energy waves emitting from within Kuroko had changed its pattern. Individuals with spiritual strength possess waves which serve as a biological imprint of identity from birth. He had been taken by the devils. To him, Tetsuya was just a walking corpse obeying the orders of his master.

"Did your master order you to kill us?" Kuroko's uncle had sneered. "What an imprudent child. Even after dying, you are still causing me so much trouble. Why can't you just die peacefully?"

Kise strung wires swiftly with great expertise around Amaya's neck, reappearing in the shadows of the cursed humans. "Say another word, I shall toss your head into the River of Styx." The humans were terrified. Humans beg for their life and promised the best when death is just beyond the reach of their feet. "You pathetic excuse of a human. How dare you talk like that to your own flesh and blood. Have you forgotten the warning I had gave you so many years ago?"

"Tetsuya.... please...... help me!" Amaya pleaded. "I promise we'll tell you the truth! The truth of your origins!"

"Kise-kun, please don't kill him yet. We have things we must interrogate him." Kuroko sighed. "Even if we kill him, Kirisaki Daiichi will send another pathetic fellow to complete the mission my uncle had failed to do so."
