Rating: PG
Genre: general, angst
Summary/Notes: This is just a little practice writing after seeing the interaction between Yuya and Aka. So ignore the implications of a crack pairing. ^^; though this would most certainly make Kyo jealous.
She was beautiful but stubborn, kind but firm, sympathetic but naïve. She did not fear the consequences nor did she seem scared of the results, as she was his seer after all so she had nothing to fear.
He dressed her in fine silks and lavish colors making sure the cloth fit just right to show off his mark on her chest and the fine skin that she was blessed with. He had her hair braided to the side held up by pearls that wound around to weave through the strands of blond.
He gave her gifts and treasures beyond anything known to man and yet she closed her eyes away from them and cried for someone else. He decided to try utilizing fear to get her to comply with him and still she remained adamant.
She reminded him of someone, this girl, but the name of said person eludes him. The sharp features of her face were blemished by her sorrow and the fact that she shook in terror from him as he approached her again.
Nothing like the last seer, Sakuya, this girl was willing to talk back and refuse him. No matter that he terrified her she still would not do as he requested and see into the future. It irritated him, but perhaps that’s why he was willing to look by it… for now. That’s why he hasn’t killed her yet, because he hasn’t been this entertained by another human in a long time.
“ Is there something you would like? Something you wish for?” He asks taking a hand in his.
She reacts sharply by pulling her hand away from him, but even for a sudden motion his grip is too strong and he pulls her along towards the window. “ I don’t want anything,” she repeats voice still as defiant as ever even if it shakes.
He holds out his hand to the world enveloping it in his palm. “ All of it, everything, it’s all yours. Do you want the sakura trees to blossom year around, do you want the stars closer to you, or do you want the sun to disappear? Would it make you happier if I made you their queen?”
She shook her head and he sighed agitatedly as he pushed her away. “ I want…”
He stopped and looked back at her waiting patiently as she struggled to find her voice. “ I want you to leave my friends alone,” she finally cried.
He didn’t bother replying in words this time as the floor ripped open beside the girl from the force of his agitation.
She knew, she knew the secret of the Mibu. It was like a hidden joker card that she held up her sleeve. It made it impossible for him to kill her, at least not too quickly. Besides Demon Eyes Kyo would be here soon and perhaps the girl would finally foretell his future for him, like a good little girl.
“ Nozomu, you fool,” he murmured as he turned back to the shaking young girl, watching him with wide green eyes, “but maybe this will play out better then I thought.”
It most certainly wasn’t boring him. His smile widened as he waited knowing all the while that the future was about to unfold…
