Usagi's Demon

What you do for someone you love is crazy.

I wake up.

I feel warm.

I don't want to be.

I wanna be cold, and angry.

But instead, I feel safe, and obviously warm.

I open my eyes and what I see is colours.

The colours of a field filled with flowers, moving.

No, it's me who is moving, but I'm not using my own feet.

I lift my head up and see Wu, carrying me.

I roll out of hi grip and try to crawl away.

"USAGI STOP THIS NONSENSE NOW" Wu says frustrated,

I turn around and look at him.

He looks tired, and has some blood on his shirt.

I look questioning at him, he just rolls his eyes.

"Don't ask" he says and cross his arms.

I stand up on my feet.

"I didn't mean to-"

"I don't want to argue, just come on" Wu says.

The table has turned.

Looks like he is in control now.

He starts walking down the field.

I follow, and just feel like bursting out in anger at him, asking who's blood it is on his shirt, but I decide not too. IT looks like he has been through enough.

"Can we talk?" I ask him.

He ignores me, as I suspected.

"Please"

He stops and turns to look at me.

"I have to say something, which has been on my mind a long time.."

"I like you too" Wu says.

My heart skips a beat and I stare at him, a bit confused.

The wind makes my hair sail along and a flower lands on my face.

I ignore it and just stare at him.

"I did this all for you, I took you to a safer place, where I can protect you"

"Whose blood is that?" I ask.

He looks down at his black n' white striped shirt and looks back up.

"You don't need to know.."

"I DO" I say angered.

He is quiet, looks like he wants to disappear.

"A fuzen.... He tried to capture you and..."

"And what?"

"He wanted to rape you.."

What is this weird feeling in my stomach? Fear?

I feel a tear goes down my face, it's weird.

Last time I felt one of those was when my brother died, trying to protect me.

"Wu..."

"Don't please, it was difficult" He says.

I walk to him and hug him.

"You killed someone for me, you did it despite one of the most important Yoshimi laws...

one shall not kill another human being" I say.

"You are my hero" I say.

"You are mine... Remember the torture chamber?"

"I don't wanna talk about it..."

"You got your fingers cut of for my fault, because you didn't want me to experience the pain" Wu says.

"I couldn't look at you getting tortured, and I'm used to pain"I reply,

"No one is used to pain, everyone think it hurts, don't fool it away, I'm not stupid Usagi" Wu says.

"Wu, the reason why you and me are here is because of me. I was supposed to go kill the first Yoshimi I found and kill them, and the first one was you" I say disgusted of myself.

"But I couldn't do it, because you reminded me of someone, and you seemed just as confused as me" I say.

"And... I guess.."

"Love at first sight" we say in choir.

I stare into his eyes, and he into mine.

It feels like time is freezed, like everything around me stopped working for a second.

He just smiles at me.
