*Luke's POV*

"Crap she's going to rat me out and when she does, my mother is as good as dead," I thought to myself. "It's all my fault why couldn't I have just done as I was told and stay under the bed. It's all because I couldn't wait to get to know her. I'm an idiot.

*Karma's POV*

"I was nervous that you guys would make me leave the room before checking it out," I lied to Kaname, I hoped he wouldn't figure that out.

Kaname sighs "Sounds just like you, but how did you recover so fast?"

"Uh, prayers," I said hoping he'd buy that.

"Yeah, no that makes no sense, what're you hiding?"

"Nothing, why would I need to hide anything?"

"Aright then, I'll be back around dinner time to bring you something to eat alright,"

"Okay, thanks Kaname,"

"No problem" Kaname leaves the room closing the door behind him. Luke comes out from under the bed, looking at me with a surprised expression.

    "What do you mean he doesn't exist?!" I say sitting up on the bed. Luke looks around the room like he's looking for something."Just as I said, this brother you're looking for doesn't exist," Luke says as he lifts up a pile of books. "Ah, here it is," Luke picks out a piece of paper under the books and hands it to me."What's this?" I say taking the paper and looking at it."Read the paper, you're brother left it up here like 2 or 3 weeks ago. I naturally hid it to use as blackmail to get out of here but it's of no importance to your dad, he said so himself,""But how did he…" I say as I look down at the paper, which reads1. Trick Karma into searching for our "brother"2. Make sure she doesn't return3. Help Kami get the war"But why would he do this?" I say holding the paper tightly in my hands."Beats me but what're you going to do now?""What do you mean by that?""Well you've seen his plans so w

    I stood there looking at Kaname, he sighed and said "Karma, I was going to tell yo-" "WHEN?! When would you have told me huh?! I knew it was suspicious the way she just left without saying anything to me first and the way I couldn't call or text her. How long were going to hide this from me?! Why didn't you tell me!?" I yelled at Kaname as I walked into the room, I wasn't planning on addressing the information Luke gave me but that and now this was too much. "I couldn't at the time," I pushed Kaname out of the way and looked down at Kami who sat on her bed, smirking at me. "How did you know?" I asked Kami, standing in front of her trying not to do anything I'd regret. "I was the cause of the sorry-ass state she's in, now that we're getting somewhere I wan-" I slapped Kami across her face before she could finish her sentence. "You're holding your own mother as a hostage to try and get something that isn't within your reach! Let my mother go,"

    "I wonder if anything was left-back?" I say as I rummage through the fridge for something to eat."Probably not," Gem said standing behind me, idly watching."There's a bowl of fruits, a salad, and some apple juice. That's enough to last me about 2 days,""You plan on staying here for 2 days?" Gems ask me."Well, I can't go back to Father's place yet, the answer I want to give Kam will only endanger more people,""I'm surprised you're taking this so calmly,""Oh I was a mess before I completely lost it with Kaname. I want to save mom but I'd be putting everyone else at risk, and if I decide to take on the war then I lose the closest person to me,""And if you don't answer in the time given?""I assume Mom dies,""Why don't you save that decision for later, instead think of a way you can have both,""How am I going to have both?""Well if we happen to find a way to heal your mother without Kamiya finding out

    "Yes, she has a few of the symptoms such as memory loss, headaches, and weakness in the limbs. The doctor said she's getting worse rapidly, Kami did say that she'd die after sunset on the third day of Karma didn't give her the war,""So what're you planning now?" I asked Kaname."Nothing,""Nothing?!" Sinn and I asked in shock."What do you mean nothing? You've always got something planned," Sinn said in disbelief at the situation."There's nothing I could plan, Karma's in a lose/lose situation. No matter what she chooses it'll be worse for anyone or everyone. Personally, I'd hate to say it but Karma should choose the war if we're looking at the bigger picture. Mother's death will affect her greatly but I know with time she'll be ok given time and it may even fuel the fire to find our sibling. Gem, she may hate me right now but relay this message to her,""I will but I don't think she'll listen though,""Thanks, I just hope one day sh

  • Looking Through the Battlefield    Mother Dearest

    I wake up the morning I'm going to see my mother, I've never been more excited about anything. Mom is like the light at the end of the tunnel for me, she's been my best friend and biggest support line. Although after the separation, I wouldn't see her often despite being homeschooled in her house. Spending the day at my mother's house made me feel a sense of closeness with her again, growing up I was inseparable from her. I open my closet and pick out her favourite shirt. She bought it for me not too long ago. It was a sleeveless white shirt with roses around the chest area. I put on my favourite pair of blue jeans and put on a light blue cardigan. I did my hair in a high ponytail and put o her favourite blue earrings. Just as I got finished getting ready Gem came into the room. "Ready to go?" I took a death breath and said "ready as I'll ever be," Gem teleported us to Kaname's room. Once there I'm almost face to face with Kaname, he looks shocked. "Wow, I-I

    "You know if she finds out herself you're fucked right?" Luke whispered."Yes I'm aware," Kaname whispered back."How are you going to get out of this one?" Luke said with a smirk."I…don't know," Kaname said defeated."Well you might as well tell her while you're ahead, we both know it'll crush her regardless so rip off the bandaid," Luke said slapping Kaname on the back pushing him forward."Hey K, can we talk for a minute?" Kaname asked, nervously."Sure," I got up and followed Kaname to the far side of the room. "um I wanted to apologize for blowing up on you earlier,""No no it's fine," you'll probably blow up on me again just now anyways, Kaname thought to himself. "I wanted to talk to you about mom's condition actually,""Good, tell me everything you know please," I said as my eyes filled with worry for mom."Well for starters she has a tumour and one of the symptoms is memory loss," Kaname said."Ok

    I had fallen asleep while sitting next to mom but when I woke up she was nowhere to be found. I panicked, frantically looking around the room for mom. Just as I was about to call for Luke, she walked into the room. "Should you be walking around in your condition mom?" I asked, rushing to her side. "Don't worry dear, I'm starting to feel better so I thought I'd get up to stretch my legs," Mom said walking back over to the bed. "Oh, you're feeling better? That's great to hear but you shouldn't strain yourself or you might get worse," I explained hoping mom would take extra caution. "Alright I'll be careful, anyway what should we do today?" Mom asked sitting on the bed. "I'm not sure I just want to spend the day with you," "Well then, let's head out," she said standing back up, I looked up at her shocked, "what? I don't want to be in bed all day and I'm sure that you don't want to hang around me bedside all day either, so let's go out and

    I walked back to the house and up to Kami's room, where Kaname and Kami were waiting for me."Told you she'd come, you owe me $15," Kaname said with a smirk.Kami sighed and asked me "have you come to decision yet?""I have but I have a few questions first, " I said giving Kami a serious look, Kaname and Kami looked at each other then back at me."Shoot, " Kami said smirking."Whatever you did to mom only affects her cause she's our mom right?" I raised the question hoping my hunch was right."That's correct, where are you going with this?" Kami asked looking at me and Kaname suspiciously."Your power affects the subconscious so if she were to truly believe that she isn't our mother then would it be enough to free her?" I asked, hoping this would be my way out."Even if she were to truly believe that, nothing would change. My power indeed affects the mind but I have complete control over it from the moment I lay a hand on you."

    "In Kami's absence, Karma you'll need to stop this senseless search and help out on the frontlines," Father said. "No," I said. "What did you say to me?" Father said he looked really mad. "I said no, I'm not giving up what I want because you tell me to. I'm done doing your dirty work, if you want something done do it yourself. All you ever really do is sit up in your office and make me, Kami, and Kaname do you're bidding, hell if I'm going to do that. I'll go on the frontlines whenever I want to go," I said as I walked out of the room, noticing Kaname had his hand over his mouth trying to contain his laughter. “So what are you going to do now, Father? Your best fighter has tapped out and now you’ve got to deal with a teenage rebellion,” Kaname teased. “Of all the times, why now do they pull this shit? Guess it’s your time Kaname,” “Yeah, no thanks,” “What!?”“I could’ve settled for at least second best but third time isn’t always the charm pops,” Kanam

    Sinn is nowhere near my name but I was given it because that's what I was called, I don't even remember what my real name was."Another round!" a customer yelled at me as I was cleaning glasses. By day, I'm just a bartender but during the night I was a murderer. Of course, murder is wrong but honestly, some people do deserve it, well that's my mentality at least. While I was making the customer's drink I heard him talking to another person."Did you hear? The serial murderer has been attacking this area lately?" the man said to the other."What? But why?""Does a mass murderer need a reason to murder?""I heard every person he killed had at least committed an offence punishable by death but of course managed to get out," a woman chimed into the conversation. I know this woman, she's in the bar every night till closing and even then she'd stick around. She just so happens to be a cop I believe she's suspicious of me."So

    "What do you want now?" Axel said looking at both Gem and Sinn, "If this is about the girl she's fine, she's unconscious because she wants to be." "Really?" Sinn asked, "Why would anyone want to be unconscious?" "This way I don't have control of her, she's growing stubborn and I don't want her getting in my way," Axel said angrily. "You've brought this upon yourself, Axel," Gem said standing in front of him. "Oh?" he looked up at Gem and instantly knew what she had meant, "I see you have made up your mind but answer me this Gem, how will you defeat me when you're powerless?" Axel asked while smirking. Sinn thought to himself she knew he would ask this and honestly I have the same question, it's pretty obvious that Gem feeds power off of Karma so she doesn't get too powerful but it definitely won't be enough to take on Axel. Sinn looked at Gem who was determined but determination alone would only get her killed, not to mention her i

    "Just wake up already, you're fully healed," Axel said to Kami. Axel rarely leaves the shinigami realm so when he wants to communicate with Kami he meets up with her in her head. "I've had enough Axel, let me go I won't be your puppet any longer," Kami said folding her arms. "You almost got Kaname and Karma killed, not to mention you almost killed my mother. I told you that you could use my body to achieve the war but don't hurt my family," "They were just collateral damage besides even if I did get them killed what would you do? It's not like you could stop me, face it if it weren't for that commander we wouldn't be in here right now," Axel said smirking. "Whatever, all that matters now is that we're here now and we're on equal terms now," Kami said with a smirk. "What the hell are you talking about kid?" Axel said getting annoyed. "Thanks to that beating the commander gave me, your mark is halfway gone," Kami said pushing h

    "Natsu I need to see Luke right now," I said giving Natsu a look of determination."Uh, sure and you know there's no rush it's not like he's going anywhere," Natsu said jokingly."Just where did they take him Natsu?""Follow me," Natsu said as we walked through to get to the infirmary, I kept my head down a majority of the time as Nastu stopped to talk to his comrades. In my head, I hoped and prayed that no one would recognize me and thankfully no one did. I thought to myself I probably should've brought Kaname or even Lyst with me. Once we got to the infirmary, I put my head up a bit to see Luke, for the first time he looked genuinely happy. He was laughing with a bunch of other people and being greeted by people, he looked like he was where he belonged. I felt a pain in my chest, it hurt to see someone else enjoying the one thing I wanted most. Why is it that everyone else gets to have that feeling but for me? Did I do something wrong? Was I unworthy of

    I open the bush to find Luke's jacket, I picked it up and a person with horns pops out, I looked at Kaname."He's pretty smart," Sinn said, replying for Kaname. "losing the clothes would aid his escape better but of course he slipped up giving it to a demon," Sinn said and the jacket started glowing. Kaname shielded me as the jacket glowed and then dissipated."Hehehehehehe, good to see you again Kaname," the demon said."What did they say?" Kaname asked Sinn."They said it was nice to see you again Kaname," I said to Kaname, "stop talking, you'll make yourself worse,""How did you understand that?" Sinn asked me, I looked at him confused, "demons speak an ancient language, it was around before shinigami," Sinn explained."I don't know, I just understood them," I said looking at the demon."I've never seen you before, who are you?""I'm Karma, Kaname's sister and you are?" I asked extending my hand to the female demon."

Kami on the other hand didn't move, I was about to place another drop on her when Kaname grabbed my arm and shook his head."Can you speak?" I asked just to make sure."Well, that's a stupid question, of course not, " Sinn said standing next to Kaname's bed. "No I couldn't have put it any nicer, " Sinn said looking at Kaname."Wait you know what he's staying?" I asked Sinn, looking dumbfounded."Of course I can, we're bound together I could basically read his mind, ""Could you tell me what he knows about Deity tears?""Don't tell her anything it's not the time yet, " Kaname thought."He knows nothing about it but where did you get it?"

I screamed as I got up from the dirt and rushed to her side making sure she was ok."Get away..from me," Kami said coughing up blood."You're alright, " I said hugging her as tears welled up in my eyes. "B-but what was that crack?" I turn around to see that Gem had taken the blow for Kami, cracking her bones. "Gem!? What're you doing here?""You were the one who summoned me, ""I did?" I asked, confused."Forget it, just get Kami out of here, " Gem told me as she teleports the Commander a great distance from us."No...I…fight, " Kami said spitting up more blood."The only fight you should be worried about is the one for your life, " Gem said as I hesitated to send Kami away.

    "2 on 1 hardly seems fair and it seems as though you were about to get your ass beat," I said teasing Kami. "HA, you wish after this is over I'm soooo kicking your ass," Kami said as I teleported her to my side. "When was the last time we fought side by side huh?" I asked Kami, feeling a sense of nostalgia. "Pfft, as if we'd ever get the chance to fight side by side like this, " Kami said giving a small smile. "You can remember it more vividly when you're drawing your last breathes," the commander said charging at us. Kami then ran to the right so I ran to the left, the commander went after her first. Kami then picked up the pace and ran faster she gave me a look and I nodded. I then teleported her onto the commander. She marked him and jumped off I teleported her back to me.
