Chapter Thirteen
Revealed Love
“Hatsui,
what are you saying?”
“What
do you know?”
“Hatsui,
you shouldn’t be out of bed! Get back
there right now!”
Uruki
appeared in the doorway behind Hatsui, his black eyes scolding as he wrapped an
arm around his waist. The young man
continued to reprimand him for being out of bed as he led him to a nearby
chair. Everyone began talking at once and
it took a very sharp whistle to quiet them.
“Honestly…”
“Namame’s
right, what are the four of you arguing about at this late hour? Hatsui, you should be in bed. It had better be important if you’re willing
to risk waking the entire castle.”
Appearing
as silent as a shadow, Namame emerged from the wall with Cassandra in his arms
as she raised en eyebrow at her warriors.
As he stepped inside, he went to the door and closed it before he placed
Cassandra on a padded chair. She
thanked him, folded her arms across her chest, and waited.
“Well?”
There
was a pause as the four men exchanged glances.
Namame moved to stand behind Cassandra’s chair, at attention as any
soldier should have been. Finally,
Hatsui took a deep breath and went to speak, but Namame held up his hand for
silence. Hatsui looked confused as he
watched Namame flick his wrist lazily.
Black fire circled the walls and sank into the shadows before vanishing
completely.
“Even
walls have ears.”
“Thank
you Namame,” Cassandra said, pleased.
“Continue
Hatsui,” and with that, the black-haired man resumed his position.
Hatsui
cleared his throat, feeling uncomfortable at being the center of
attention. The tension in the room was
thick and Urumiya was glaring at him as though he were a criminal. Iname looked cross as he leaned against the
wall and it seemed Uruki was the only support he had. The blonde teen was standing behind his chair, much like Namame
was for Cassandra, and Uruki’s hand rested on his shoulder. Finally, Hatsui took a deep breath and
began.
“You
all know that there was a Genbu no Miko and Genbu Shichi Seishi around 200
years ago and she gathered her warriors and together they summoned Genbu. This saved Hokkan and allowed Lady Takiko to
be sent back to her own world after she made her first wish. You also know that Lady Takiko was killed
before her third wish was made. What
you do not know is what happened to her warriors after her death.”
The
group fell silent. It was true; none of
them knew what had happened to their former namesakes. Cassandra looked worried and Iname moved
closer, reached down, and gave her hand a squeeze.
“What
do you know, Hatsui?” she asked.
He
licked his lips, coughed, and tried again.
Uruki sighed and got him a glass of water, which he sipped from before
continuing. “Although the warriors were
all strong, good men and women, they felt it.
They felt the moment their priestess died and it destroyed them.”
“How do
you know this?” Urumiya demanded.
“I
discovered this in the records of Kutou,” and he pulled out an ancient looking
scroll from his robe. “This is a
journal kept by the former Hatsui. My
namesake. Kutou had seized it and all
other records of the Genbu warriors of the past when the prophecy was first
laid down that a new Genbu no Miko would appear. I discovered it only recently, and that was when Cassandra first
appeared. I knew the time had come for
us to awaken and the prophecy would come to pass. I stole this scroll from their records and have kept it ever
since.”
“What
does it say?” Uruki asked.
“It
tells of their travels, of Hatsui’s own origins, the summoning of Genbu…and the
love between Lady Takiko and her Uruki.”
Cassandra
frowned thoughtfully. “Lady Takiko was
in love with Uruki?”
“Yes. It was a forbidden, harsh love, but love
nonetheless. However, this Uruki was
very different from ours. When the
priestess died, Uruki went mad and left five thousand corpses in his wake
before his own winds finally destroyed him. Hatsui once more became an outcast
and hid from the world inside his shell.
Inami, the only female, went back to being a brothel madam and perished
due to an overdose of drugs. Urumiya
and Namame went into hiding and disappeared…no one ever knew what became of
them. As for Tomite and Hikitsu…”
“We
know they’re dead,” Iname smirked. “The
only problem is finding out where their spirits are and why they’re staying
dead.”
“Not
only that, but why do you say this tragedy will befall us, Hatsui?” Urumiya
demanded.
“Because
the Genbu Shichi Seishi wanted to keep their priestess with them in this
world. And she wanted to be with Uruki
more than anything. If we try to do the
same, these events could happen again.
That’s why we can’t get to close to Cassandra…even though we may want
to. If we did…” he glanced at his
priestess with sad eyes. “We don’t know
what would happen.”
“I
don’t think that’s true.”
At Cassandra’s
words, her warriors fell silent. She
sat up straighter, her eyes determined, and braced her hands on the arms of her
chair. Although what Hatsui said made
her uneasy, Cassandra had to be strong.
I have to be strong for the others.
Green eyes burned as she clenched her hands.
“Cassandra?”
She
smiled at Iname before turning serious once more. “I don’t believe that it was just the loss of their priestess
that caused such sorrow for the former Genbu Shichi Seishi. I think there’s more to it than that. And while we shouldn’t ignore the events of
the past, we shouldn’t let them rule over us either. We should make our own journey, take our own steps, and be strong
for one another no matter what. That’s
really all we can do. We can write our
own future without fearing the events of the past. I know we can do this…together.”
There
was a long pause as the men exchanged glances and considered Cassandra’s
words. Finally…
“I
agree.”
Namame’s
voice startled Uruki and he glanced at the shadow warrior. “How can you be so sure of this? Do you think we can really overcome the
events of the past? Can we make our own
future?”
“Yes.”
“You’re
awfully confident then?”
“Yes.”
“Then
it’s settled,” Iname said brightly. “We
make our own journey. One step at a
time. And the first of those steps is
back to Hokkan.”
“I
agree. The Emperor must be informed of
our status. Plus, the only logical
place to look for the souls of Tomite and Hikitsu is in Hokkan. The scroll didn’t give any clues as to where
they’d be though,” Uruki added.
“Then
tomorrow we set off for Hokkan,” Urumiya decided and they all agreed.
The
next morning dawned bright and warm as the group of Genbu warriors prepared to
make the trip back to Hokkan. Saihitei
was with them as they saddled their horses and put on their packs, ready to say
their farewells. Cassandra was feeling
better than ever and she shielded her eyes from the sun and sighed. It’s so beautiful here. She was really going to miss Konan and hoped
that she’d be able to come back someday.
Speaking of missing things…she glanced to the side and saw
Saihitei there, surrounded by retainers as always. The young man was trying hard not to look upset, but Cassandra
could see the tightness in his eyes and mouth.
She slid down from her horse and went to Saihitei, enveloping him in her
arms tightly. Although the retainers
gasped and many of them sputtered protests, Saihitei just returned the hug
after a frozen moment of shock.
If
she goes, then I’ll be alone again. And
Chang’s going too…he
knew would miss his ever-faithful companion more than anything. But he was the future Emperor. He had to stand strong. So Saihitei released Cassandra after a
moment and faced her with his head held high.
His eyes widened as he watched her take off her necklace and he frowned
as she took his hand. What is she
doing? But that’s when the
priestess dropped her necklace into his palm and closed his fingers around it.
“Cassandra…?”
“Keep
this with you, Saihitei, and know that no matter what happens…we’ll always be
friends. Don’t forget that I still owe
you for helping me find Chang. If
you’re ever in need, please don’t hesitate to ask. If it’s within my power, then I’ll do whatever I can to repay
you. Stay strong Saihitei, and don’t
forget-”
“Cassandra,
it’s time to go!”
“I’m
coming Iname, chill out,” she turned back to Saihitei and smiled. “Don’t forget the music in your heart,
Saihitei. Take care, and I’ll come back
for a visit someday, I promise.”
With
one final hug, Cassandra mounted up in front of Iname and blushed as he wrapped
an arm around her waist. She glanced
back at Saihitei and waved as their party rode off. It was with hope in their hearts that they departed. Hope that they could rewrite the tragic fate
of the Genbu Shichi Seishi. We can
change it. I just know we can,
Cassandra thought as she waved until she couldn’t see Saihitei anymore. The men put their spurs to their horses as
they rode through the main city and off into the country. The Genbu warriors were returning to Hokkan
with good news and a new mission: to discover the whereabouts of Tomite and
Hikitsu.
They
rode for over a week, talking and arguing along the way as they got to know
each other a bit more. Even though
Hatsui’s revelations had unnerved them, they were determined to forge their own
path. Urumiya said himself that he
refused to be ruled by the past. He
lived for the present and the future.
It brought up much discussion and debate as to how to handle the
prophecy and the search for their comrade.
No one brought up the thought of Cassandra having to return to her own
world. Cassandra was thinking about it
though. She was thinking of her family,
school, and…actually was dreading going back to that world. As much as she wanted to say she wasn’t
running away from her troubles back home, she couldn’t help but think that she
was. It bothered her immensely.
Finally,
after ten days on the road, delayed by luck, the elements, and Kutou assassins,
the exhausted warriors reached Touran and rode towards the castle. Emperor Tokoyami and Empress Meilaka were
awaiting their return inside. Once the
group had left their mounts in the stables, they entered the throne room where
Tokoyami rose from his throne, a broad smile on his face and his arms open for
them. Urumiya bowed deeply before he
clasped the man’s hand. Iname also
bowed and clasped hands with His Majesty.
“Emperor,
Lady Empress, it’s good to see you both,” Iname said with a smile as Cassandra
barreled past.
“Toko!”
and she completely ignored the retainers and noblemen who uttered gasps and
protests as she threw her arms around her friend. “Meilaka! Oh you’re
looking beautiful as always!”
“Cassandra,”
he chuckled and gave her a squeeze before she stepped back. “You’ve done wonderfully, more than I could have
ever hoped for. I am very proud of all
of you. Thank you.”
“Toko,”
Cassandra took his arm and led him to where Uruki, Hatsui, and Namame were
waiting. “May I introduce three of the
Genbu Shichi Seishi? They’ve become
good friends, so be nice.”
“When
am I ever not nice?” he chortled and then turned to the newcomers. “Greetings, gentlemen, and welcome to
Hokkan.”
“Your
Majesty, Lady Empress,” Uruki stepped forward and knelt, black eyes
bright. “I am Xiang Teki, but my true
name is Uruki. I’m seventeen, hail from
Hokkan, and my powers are over wind. It
is an honor to meet you.”
“As it
is to meet you, Uruki. Rise.”
Uruki
did so and beckoned Hatsui over. The
young man’s eyes shone as he knelt and lowered his head quickly. “Emperor, I was born in Hokkan but was
stolen and sold to Kutou when I was young.
I am twenty-three, and this is a true homecoming for me. My name is Lin Haichi and my powers are over
water. It is truly an honor to be in
your presence, Majesty.”
His
voice trembled and Tokoyami’s eyes took on a gentler look. “Welcome home Hatsui. We are pleased and honored to have you among
us.”
With a
nod, Hatsui rose and discreetly brushed a hand over his eyes. He went and stood next to Uruki, a small,
trembling smile on his lips. The room was
silent as the group waited to see what Namame would do. Cassandra shifted in place and gnawed on her
lower lip. He’s served Saihitei for
practically his entire life. Well…he’s
served Konan his entire life at least, she amended. So he might not accept Toko as his
Emperor. That could cause a problem.
“I am
Mu Chang, Your Majesty. I have spent
ten of my twenty-three years serving the Emperor of Konan. I do not accept you as my Emperor, but I
shall serve faithfully to Cassandra as Namame, warrior of shadows.”
There
were several gasps when Namame declared that he wouldn’t accept Tokoyami as his
Emperor. Most from outraged
nobles. Even Cassandra had flinched a
little. Still, it’s his decision…I
guess. Tokoyami, however, stood
calm amongst the whispers, his expression unreadable.
“I
understand, Namame. All I ask is that
you allow me the opportunity to earn your trust and respect. To show you that I am someone that you can
pledge your allegiance to,” he replied calmly.
“Thank
you, Emperor.”
With a nod,
Tokoyami turned back to the others and smiled.
“Come. You must tell me of your
travels and what you have learned.”
The
group moved to one of the audience rooms and each told Toko about their
journey. He was exceptionally pleased
that they had built trust with the future Emperor of Konan; especially
considering their ties with other kingdoms weren’t the strongest. When they brought up the concerns about
Tomite and Hikitsu, the Emperor paled and sighed, his eyes tired.
“I had
hoped their spirits would have rested once you arrived, Cassandra. But I realize now that their duty to their
priestess, Lady Takiko, is too strong.
The spirits of Tomite and Hikitsu reside in a cave on Mt. Koku-zan. They have watched over Hokkan for the past
200 years and they are the reason that we have enjoyed these centuries of
peace, even as Kutou expands around us.
They stand watch over Lady Takiko’s Shinzahou. I must warn you…these are phantoms. Ghosts from long ago and they cannot be killed. They also have all of their powers they did
when they were alive. If you go to
them, it could mean your death.”
“I know
that, Toko,” Cassandra stood at the window, gazing in the direction of
Koku-zan. “But I’m still going. Tomorrow.”
“Very
well. For now though, you all should
return to your rooms and get some rest.
You have had a long journey.”
With
that, the group disbanded, each going their separate ways for the moment. Cassandra smiled as Iname yawned, staggering
into his room across from hers. Even
Urumiya looked exhausted as he nodded and went to get some sleep. Hatsui had fallen asleep and Uruki grinned
wickedly at Cassandra as he carried the young man into his room. She giggled and closed her door
quietly. Even as things keep piling
up, at least those two will be happy. She
had to admit, she was nervous about meeting the phantoms of Tomite and
Hikitsu. No…I’ll be meeting
them. That they don’t have bodies
shouldn’t matter. Still, they were
loyal to Lady Takiko, not me. And if
Namame’s words told me anything, it’s that men with honor serve only those who
have earned their respect. I haven’t
earned theirs yet.
“They’ve
been standing watch for 200 years…such loyalty would be a gem beyond
price. More than anything a royal could
hold.”
“You’re
quite right, Cassandra.”
“KYAH!”
she yelped and tumbled back into a chair.
“Taiitsukun! What are you doing
here?’
“I came
to congratulate you on locating Hatsui, Uruki, and Namame and to commend you on
finding your powers. Nakago will surely
think twice before challenging you again.
However, there are many obstacles in your path. You will need something to magnify your
voice and make it stronger.”
“Make
my voice stronger…oh! I know!”
Cassandra
scrambled for a piece of paper and a stick of charcoal. Once they were in her hands, she started to
sketch. She wasn’t much of an artist,
but the likeness was close enough.
Taiitsukun looked over her shoulder as she drew and her expression
became one of understanding. Cassandra
pointed out how she wanted it to work and the mechanics of the drawing and the
god nodded. The old woman closed her
eyes and began to concentrate. Black
and silver light formed between her hands as something took shape. Finally, it was created. A sleek microphone trimmed in black and
silver with the emblem of Genbu emblazoned in the face solidified and floated
into Cassandra’s hands. It’s so
warm…
“There. This microphone shall be yours, Genbu no
Miko. No one else may touch it and if
they tried, it would instantly appear in your pocket again. It is tied to you and you to it. You will find many other details as well.”
“Thank
you Taiitsukun. It’s perfect.”
She ran
her fingers over the cool metal, noting how it was the perfect length and
weight for her. The grip was molded to
her hand and when she touched the emblem, it changed into a small round coin
that she could tuck into her pocket and keep with her. Taiitsukun cleared her throat suddenly.
“Cassandra,
you know that as the Genbu no Miko you must not love any man. You must not see your warriors as more than
guardians. The line between the
priestess and her guardians must not be crossed. Understand?”
“What?”
Cassandra looked up in disbelief.
“Taiitsukun, you can’t be serious!”
“I
am. The gods seek out a virgin’s
unspoiled flesh. In joining with a man,
you will lose all right to summon the beast god. Every priestess thus far has made the foolish mistake of falling
in love with one of her warriors. It
has always ended in tragedy. So you
must set aside your growing feelings for Iname. Nothing will ever come of it except for the fate you are trying
so desperately to change.”
Cassandra’s
eyes widened and her hands trembled in her lap. I feel weak…they’ve all ended in tragedy…but just as
quickly, bubbling anger rose in her. How
dare she try to tell me what to feel? Taiitsukun
was silent, her gaze knowing as Cassandra rose from her chair and faced the
deity.
“With
all due respect, Taiitsukun, I will not set aside my feelings for Iname. Nor will I do so for any of my other
warriors. We are going to change the
tragic fate of the Genbu Shichi Seishi by forging our own path. I will make my own choices and my own
fate. Just because I love Iname doesn’t
mean that the relationship will be consummated. Iname and I shall wait.
No matter how long it takes, I’d wait forever for him, longer if I had
to. Taiitsukun…love isn’t something the
gods can control. No one can tame
it. Not even you.”
That’s
when she realized what she just said and Cassandra gasped, pressing her lips to
her mouth. Did…did I just say I
loved Iname? But even as she tried
to find rationalization to it, the young woman knew in her heart that it was
true. I do love him. He’s always been there at my side; so
gentle, so kind…he was the one who first saved me in this world. She’d never spoken to anyone about her
feelings for Iname and now she’d just blurted it out to Taiitsukun. Needless to say, she turned red from
embarrassment and averted her eyes.
Taiitsukun on the other hand just started to laugh.
“Taiitsukun…?”
“You’ve
certainly grown Cassandra. You would
never have had the courage to speak to me like that before. I’m quite proud.”
“Y-you
are?”
“Yes. If you are determined to go through with
this, to overcome Lady Takiko’s legacy, then you will need the strength to do
so. Still, you must heed my warning:
you must never join with any man or you will lose the right to summon the beast
god. You must remain pure.”
Cassandra
flushed a bit darker, but nodded. She
understood that she had to remain a virgin in order to summon the beast god
Genbu and fulfill her duty. Still, she
had a hard time believing that she had come so far and had become so
strong. But who knows? I may be wrong. Cassandra smiled and thanked the old woman before Taiitsukun
made her exit. Once she was alone, she
sat back down in her chair, her body shaking.
I really love Iname. But
Taiitsukun’s words were still ringing in her ears and she bit her lower
lip. I can’t tell him though. I can’t.
If I do, then he’ll want to pursue me and we can’t take the chance of
the past repeating itself. Her
throat closed and her eyes burned as she realized she could never tell Iname,
or anyone, her true feelings. I
can’t take that chance. I have to think
of the future. The room was
starting to feel stifling, so Cassandra got up and went out her side door to
the small garden beyond.
It was
cold out that night, but Cassandra was getting used to it and rubbed her arms
absently through her thick coat. She
breathed in the clean, cool air and sighed.
Even the air smelled different to her.
It’s so unlike Tokyo. It’s
even different from America. Cassandra
didn’t feel the pang of loneliness she usually had when the thought of her old
home came up. For the first time in a
long time, Cassandra felt like she was home.
It was as though her soul was putting down roots and her fate was
becoming intertwined with that of her warriors. Of Hokkan itself. She
reached out a hand and brushed at the snow on the bushes. Even though there was peace in the air,
there seemed to be a dark sense of foreboding.
As though someone was watching and waiting for the right time to
strike. Cassandra shivered.
“How
long will this uneasy peace last?
What’s more…how long will it be before the priestesses of Seiryu and
Suzaku arrive?” she sighed and rubbed her chilled hand. “Because I have a feeling the three of us
are fated to meet.”
“Really?”
“KYAH!”
Cassandra whirled around and caught sight of solemn deep blue eyes and she
sighed. “Hatsui…what are you doing out
here? You scared me out of my mind, sneaking
up on me like that.”
“My
apologies, priestess, it wasn’t my intent.”
He
moved slowly, but with fluid grace until he was standing next to
Cassandra. She took a moment to drink
him in, noting how silent he was and how he seemed so mysterious. Just like the sea. You can hardly tell what mood its in until
it’s too late. The silence was
calm, but not deafening, as though she was at the bottom of a lake. Content to let it last, Cassandra gazed back
out at the snow-covered garden and waited to see what Hatsui wanted.
“I’m
sorry Cassandra.”
“For
what?”
“For
not taking more time to get to know you.
For thinking you were like Lady Takiko.
You will not let anything happen to us.
I know that now,” and his expression gentled. “Uruki told me you saved his life. How you saved Urumiya’s soul.
Then there’s Iname…”
Cassandra
flushed. “Hatsui, I really didn’t do
that much. All I did was follow my
heart. It told me I couldn’t let Uruki
die. It told me not to let Urumiya lock
himself away. And it will always lead
me back to Iname. My heart has lead me
to all of you. I don’t regret anything,
Hatsui, and I’m not going to abandon any of you. I’ve made my choice and I’m going to stick with it. Namame showed me that loyalty is something
to be treasured and I will treasure mine to you.”
He fell
silent after that, his mind storming with emotions. The foremost was surprise.
How can one young girl become so strong? For people she barely knows, she would be willing to give her
life. Without saying a word, Hatsui
turned and pulled Cassandra into a hug.
She’s everything I could have hoped for in a priestess. Despite the things I have done, I know
she’ll accept me for who I am. How many
others can say that? She won’t leave
us. I know she won’t. He trembled as he held her tightly, the
memories of his time in Kutou becoming further away every moment. Hatsui had a new start and he wasn’t going
to let it slide by.
As
Hatsui wrapped his arms around her, Cassandra hugged him back tightly. From what little she knew of him, she
understood that this was a rare occurrence.
Hatsui had been brought up to never reveal his innermost thoughts and
Cassandra felt her heart ache. I
can’t leave them. I just can’t…she
sniffled slightly as they both drank in the comfort and security they
needed. They need me. But probably not as much as I need
them. With a final squeeze, Hatsui
pulled back. The young man’s eyes were
overly bright, but his expression was calm.
“Cassandra,
thank you. Thank you for everything,”
and he took a moment to collect himself before he spoke again. “May I ask you something?”
“Of
course Hatsui.”
“It’s…well,
it’s about Uruki.”
“What
about him?”
Hatsui
absently rubbed the back of his hand.
“I think…I think I might be developing feelings for him. As more than a friend. I’ve been wondering if perhaps I was just
grateful to him for saving me. But
after a time…I realized that it was more.
When he tried to kiss me-”
“He
tried to kiss you?”
“Yes. And…” he turned to her, liquid silver
pooling in his eyes. “I wanted him,
Cassandra. I wanted him so badly and it
frightened me. Wanting someone like
that has never happened to me before.”
“Hatsui…”
she walked him over to a bench outside her room and sat down. “How did it scare you?”
“Well,”
he sat down and cleared his throat.
“For the longest time I’ve had to keep my heart locked away, my feelings
sequestered in order to survive in my world.
I wanted my heart at least to be pure.
After all, I was nothing but a whore to the Emperor of Kutou and if I
was ever released and was blessed enough to fall in love…I wanted to at least
give my pure heart to that person.
Especially since my body is so soiled from everything I’ve done.”
“Oh
Hatsui…” she reached out and wrapped her arms around his shoulders as he leaned
down to her, resting his head on her shoulder.
“You’re so much more than that.
You’re a strong and intelligent young man. Didn’t you prove how strong you were when you fought the Kutou
soldiers at the lake? Uruki would be
lucky to have someone like you to love.”
Cassandra
stroked his hair as she felt her robe become damp. The young man trembled as he struggled with emotions and feelings
that he’d never had before. That he
hadn’t allowed himself to have.
“Do you
really think so Cassandra?” he whispered, voice thick. “I don’t know if I could handle…”
“I know
so,” she said firmly.
“I
certainly think so.”
The new
voice startled them and Hatsui sat up quickly, trying to swipe at his eyes and
the tears there. Uruki stood framed in
Cassandra’s doorway, black eyes serious as he regarded the two of them. But there was a sly smirk on his face that
bespoke of mischief he was about to wreak.
“U-Uruki!”
Hatsui got to his feet and smoothed his clothes. “Did you…? How long were
you…?”
“Cassandra,
if you don’t mind, I’d like to speak to Hatsui alone please.”
“Of
course.”
She
rose to her feet before Hatsui could utter any protests and touched his arm
lightly as she disappeared into her room.
Silence descended on the two as Uruki took Hatsui’s arm and lead him
deep into the garden and across the way.
Hatsui stammered and protested, but followed along as his legs felt like
rubber.
“Uruki,
how much of that did you hear?”
“Enough
to know how you feel about me.”
No! I didn’t want him to know! Not like this! Hatsui gasped
as he was pushed up against the wall outside of Uruki’s bedroom. The cold air bit at him, but suddenly he was
feeling rather warm. He hadn’t wanted
Uruki to find out and now that he had…what is he going to do to me?
“Go
ahead, hit me if you want.”
“Why
would I hit you?”
“Because
you’re disgusted by my admission and-”
Before
Hatsui could say more, Uruki leaned in and claimed his lips in a deep
kiss. The young man pressed close, the
warmth from his body sent shockwaves down Hatsui’s spine, and he found himself
clinging to Uruki desperately. It was
all he could do to stay afloat as Uruki sucked and nipped, teased and
took. Uruki’s arms wound around his
waist and his palms rested on his back, clutching his shirt tightly. When Uruki flicked his tongue out to stroke
his bottom lip, he gasped and was treated to a much deeper kiss. So hot…his head spun as a flush rose
to his cheeks. Is this what kissing
is like? Or is it just because it’s
Uruki that I’m feeling like this?
He keened softly as Uruki broke the kiss, his lips hovering teasingly
above and out of reach. His breath was
hot and Hatsui shivered.
“More?”
“Uruki…”
Hatsui
knew he should protest, he really should, but all was lost as Uruki opened the
door and pushed them both inside. I’ve
waited too long for this. I can’t let
it all fall away now. Although sex
wasn’t anything new to him, Hatsui knew that it would be something different,
something special, with Uruki…
As she
watched the door close, Cassandra smiled and let the drape fall back over her
window. Be happy. Be happy for all of us. Even if she couldn’t tell Iname she
loved him, it was good to see them together.
“Good night you two.”

WOW, it has been a long time since
I’ve updated, yes? Sorry bout that, but
a rather bad storm knocked out the power and the internet on my computer, so
while it’s given me time to write…it also prevented me from getting
online. WOE IS ME! Anyway, Part 1 of The Prophecy of Genbu is
finished. Hand-written anyway. There are still a few more chapters to be
uploaded :D Please read and review!
While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error. The AFF system includes a rigorous and complex abuse control system in order to prevent improper use of the AFF service, and we hope that its deployment indicates a good-faith effort to eliminate any illegal material on the site in a fair and unbiased manner. This abuse control system is run in accordance with the strict guidelines specified above.
