AMAYA was shocked. Hiro is starting to breathe fast as he was trying to breathe normally. He wanted to be honest but Amaya was not behaving correctly. He couldn't afford to see his girl be this worried. Hiro tried so hard to hide it. But he can't until his body collapsed. Still conscious but his body now feels so paralyzed. Someone is trying so hard to make use of his body. "Why does she have to summon the fox marble?! She will not be going to be able to do it, I swear to you. She doesn't have any more powers intact within her. She's a fallen leader of the nine-tailed foxes who was come once become a fool! She isn't allowed to even have the same power as she had when she was the leader so how come?!" asks Amaya. Amaya is fuming mad and is also feeling so much worried for Hiro. Hiro is human. Having to experience all these supernatural things isn't what he deserves. Amaya doesn't want it. All she wants is to live quietly where no one is watching them. That made her continuously want
TODAY is our new start of collecting a set of souls who must die today. It's not hard as it felt the same way it did before. However, it's really making a big impact on our daily lives. Amaya changed the way she accomplish her task. She's been doing it seriously now. I don't know what's making her like that. But maybe, she doesn't want anyone to be at risk anymore. She doesn't want the jar to shake and lost what's inside of it. "Aish! That old man will get what he wants!" Mune ranted. While I am here, staring at Amaya.I'm starting to feel a little off of it. And honestly, it does make me feel a little touch of a grouch. Now, I'm sighing. Damn it. How I missed the days when we were just enjoying every bit of our mission. "Hey, bro, you look so pale. What are you thinking?" asks Yna, who is now seated beside me. Amaya is running as she chases those spirits who don't resist going to heaven. While I was here, being sentimental. My head hurts."Amaya is deadly serious when she said
FINN was startled to see them appearing in the forest's most hidden area where enchantments have been implemented. When his two siblings were still alive, this was their headquarters— knowing no one would ever see them even on their visions, or radar, and even if they were lost in this area, no one will get suspicious about this palace. However, this secrecy will never last until the end of time. Today is the last day. And the one who exposes this place is not even a supernatural creature. Hiro's appearance made him feel so doubted about the spell and enchantments that his siblings has taught to him. Hiro grips Kagome's neck as he was thrilled to capture her and send her to the spiritual realm. His eye glows orange."You do not belong here!" Hiro shouted. "Stop it!" snarled Amaya and force his hand to get off her. It wasn't a hard job to disentangle Hiro's strangles from her because Hiro is not yet good at fighting."Stop acting according to your emotions!" Venus yelled. "This isn
IT FEELS SURREAL. Seeing this girl who was once loved by Hiro, alive and kicking, is unbelievable. "You're Jean?" asks Hiro. The tone of his voice literally made me feel like he was excited to know more about this unexpected encounter. Having this thought trap inside my mind is a shit. Why do I have to feel so jealous at all times?! "...but how?" Hiro added. I gripped my hand. Still, I can feel myself trembling because of her arrival. Is something going on that I needed to know? If so, then why do I feel like I wasn't the one involved in it when I should be? The power to discern the future is beginning to fade away inside me. I have this feeling that a part of me was stuck inside Kagome. But if that's the case, it would be dangerous. "I don't know. I don't even know who Hein is." She didn't know? My eyebrows furrowed, totally looked like I was bewitched by her. Curiosity made its way upon my head. Now, I can't help but think of the endless possibilities I might encounter. "Wel
GOING back to my real body, crying because of that mere nine-tailed fox who doesn't even have the title of being a leader hurt my pride to the core. I shouted, but not in pain. I shouted due to the embarrassing moment I have to experience with her. I punched every single one of my candles. Turning it off by blowing it is an easy job, so I chose not to do it. I want something that could hurt me and in return, I will get to learn from it—so I dramatically punched it all. "You're just wasting your time." That voice again... Is that really a part of Amaya? Why is it stuck inside me? "I can also hear you think." I was disturbed. It's terrifying to see my enemy start to get more substantial than I do. "Just believe what she said, because she was right. Hiro is not Polo, and Polo is not Hiro. The hardest pill to swallow, I know. It'd put your nation at a great loss, and I understand. You still have a chance. Stop now, go and study Hiro. Touch him and activate your power. You will kn
WHEN the day Kira gave birth to a twin, mixed emotions filled her heart. It was an intense moment for her and for Loki. Having to see these two beautiful creatures together with their nine tails all out— glowing— is truly amazing. Kira couldn't get her eyes off them. She believed it was hers— both of them. Inside a little nipa hut, they made in the middle of the forest where no human tried to invade, Kira and Loki's happiness prevails."Amaya is your name, it suited you perfectly, my darling," Kira stated. She kissed Amaya's forehead as her tears streamed down her cheeks. Loki kissed her too. He caressed Amaya's furry hair and her tails that are beautifully glowing. Loki turned his gaze to the other baby which happened to be a man. Loki caressed the baby's tail as well which glows more than Amaya's. "Because you are glowing like the light of the moon, you will be named after it. Mune," Loki happily stated. Kira and Loki's overflowing joy came to an end when something near the twin's
HORRIBLE life is what was given to me, but I never questioned it when Kira and Loki are still by my side. From the very beginning, I know what my purpose is. I got the heads up and all of the pieces of information I needed. But I never listen carefully. I never noticed it. I just dragged Hiro into my mess-up life and made him suffer for a destiny that has already been written.The shoes could only fit the right owner. The dress could only rip by the stealer. The heart could only be hurt by someone closer. How I wish, we were just starting over. This pain might never take place if I met you never.Polo always reminds me, "You're the author of your life." I tend to believe him once in a while. His words are still intact in my head for I know that Polo lived the same life as Hiro. The difference is, I'm not Kagome who's easy to get swayed by her emotions— who finds it easy to cheat. However, believing it seems like I'm believing in a god that never really exists.While sitting here insid
FUNNY how I could stop her from using me to become her source of energy to kill Hiro when with just one scream, I could stop her ritual. Before I knew that Kagome possessed the body of Amaya, Kagome managed to remove the chain wrapped around my wrist. I know she will use this to continue using me. But I won't let her.She shouted. Mixed emotions are what I feel. I didn't want to know unnecessary things about her. Yet, I could feel it within me. Anger, despair, hate, disappointment— she's flaming, she's fuming. I enclosed my arms around my chest as I looked at her. Just like that, I heard a familiar voice shouting Kagome's name. That's when Kagome stopped releasing her anger through her voice. Her breath increases. I don't know where to focus my mind. To her, or to that man? "Nathan," I uttered. Kagome's eyes were shocked. Her chest kept on pumping in and out."...looks like I was right. It was Finn who's finding you. It was Finn, right? That rotting soul who stole my brother's body,"
WHEN Mune stopped punching, I took Amaya and carried her with my arms again. While Yna and Mune are consoling each other, I flee. As a matter of fact, I have been giving them countless problems and will just leave with the casualties on, not even planning on fixing it. At least, before going away, I get to say what I wanted. As I was walking away from Yna and Mune, random realizations hit me one by one. One of them is about Amaya's body. The fact that she's still here, her body is tangible and visible, I think it's one thing I should be thanking. Maybe I was born a masochist. I know how cruel the almighty is, but thoughts about thanking the deity are obvious evidence that I'm a fool. It feels heavy physically and emotionally while I have been carrying Amaya's body which has no life until I reached the heart of the forest. I put her in the middle and closed my eyes. I meditated to get into the deepest part of my mind. Having no experience at all of how I could use the fox marble to b
VENUS, Hein, and Dylan locked me up inside the cave. I knew I could flee or even teleported, but I couldn't do it right now. They blocked all the possible ways of my escape. I wanted to scream, but I couldn't. I don't have enough strength inside me. Looking at Amaya who suffered what she's meant to experience makes me want to blame myself continuously. How come she had to experience and face it alone without my presence? I know how painful it feels to face all the consequences alone. Is this the art of level of punishing one based on how heavy one mistake is?"I knew it," says Dylan. "He already knows.""What's the point of keeping it from me?" I replied bluntly. I closed my eyes, feeling all the energy build up around me. When I opened my eyes, just right after I opened my mouth, strong wind flew them all away from me— making a clear way for me to go out. A tiring body is all I have, and I used this to carry Amaya to a place I didn't know. Traveling with no direction, I guess. This
WALKING turns into running... and running turns into tears. It was the first time I finally felt the urge to cry. I feel like I'm not ready for what I'm about to face. But just waiting for her to show right before my eyes is an even harder job. I'm so tired of it, and I wanted to end it.This hope that I have been holding onto turns into a reality. A huge slap for Yna who keep on getting into my head, convincing me none could be true. "Hey, you wait for us!" Dylan called for me.There's an equal desire for Dylan and me to find Amaya. This must be it. No one can disappoint me now.Under the tree where no one lives, a tree that seems dead, the smell of Amaya gets stronger. The tears are now harder to stop from falling. Slowly, I walked towards the tree while focusing my eyes beneath the tree. I have to enter the little entrance to reach Amaya and that makes me anxious.Venus showed up. Probably, she finally sensed Amaya too.Just right before entering the little entrance, Hein held my
MOST of us had the same questions after seeing her teleported into a place we couldn't track. "Where did she go?"It's been a week now. But she's not showing us even her shadows, her smell, her voice, or her clothes. She didn't give us the hint or anything, she just left. Should I get mad at her? But what if, just what if, she's just waiting for me to find her?"We've done enough for today, Hiro. It's time to go home. You're not yet eating," says Yna. I looked at her coldly and gently nodded. But still, I continued walking, searching for her sense. I know I could find her, I know she's still there. No one would believe me, so instead of asking for their help, I just nodded. I always nodded and agreed with everything they say. Then afterward, I will continue looking at her— alone. Even if it means I have to crawl under the deepest cave, I would.Since the day Amaya left, I couldn't talk normally with anyone, not even with Yna. I have become cold-hearted, just like what they've accused
THE way he smile could creep even the worm who was just passing by. Everyone took stepped backward, clearly giving their obvious reaction because of his arrival.Inside a mansion, a dark aura surrounded the place. It's like there's a dark smoke that started to get its way in.Finn is not different when he showed up, he just became real. His real fang and monstrous side just came out."I warned you that I'm not yet done!" he shouted. His henchmen came out of his mouth— spitting black liquid that eventually became a whole different creature. He used them to become his protector and shield from their powers."What's the point of killing Hiro? Why are you so obsessed to kill him? Even if you successfully accomplish your plan, do you think Kagome will come back?!" snarled Venus. Her hands trembled but still tried so hard to hide it from him. It's kind of hard to pretend to be strong. Yet, Venus is holding on to the thought of believing in herself. That's the only key she knew to survive.F
"WHO IS THAT?" Amaya asks herself. Ruining the supposed to be "history" among the nine-tailed is like stomping on her reputation. Becoming happy and enjoying it— as it all pours inside her emotions is all she wanted. But this guy came, only to bring darker clouds with thunder rumbling on it— only to bring some dark news. But he didn't have the guts to finish his sentence. All he did is mumble and give threats with no solid plan. Yet, it's enough to make them worried. "Should we give our attention to him?" asks Hiro whose tails are now out but feels jelly. In just one look you will easily read him. Amaya knows, but she didn't tell. What's the reason for pointing out something that couldn't fix within ten seconds? Just to do the mocking? It's no use, and Amaya knows it very well. Amaya looked at him with worries that lies in between her eyes. She caressed his cheeks and rested his forehead on his. While doing so, her hand does the trick to send Finn away. It shocked Amaya to see her p
KAGOME shouted in anger. "He's a human but he seems like a nine-tailed. He has a lot of life!" Kagome stated as she went down to the ground and face Finn. "It doesn't matter right now. What's important now is you're here— we're together."Finn hugged Kagome. He couldn't contain the overflowing love and the bereavement he felt toward Kagome. It's either or both love and lust he felt. Immediately caressing her shoulder, and kissing her neck. Kagome's felt a bit off of what he was doing, she pushed him away disgustingly. "Come on, Finn, it's not important that we're together. It's not you who I wanted to be with.""And who? That Polo?!" says Finn. He shifted into a werewolf form of Nathan's body and gritted his teeth while he is also drooling. Disgusted Kagome pushed him away forcibly. She can't do it before, but she can now because her host is complete. Finn has gone insane. He grips Kagome's neck and lets his claws slide into her cheeks. Surely, it will create a scar on her face, m
"HOW COULD YOU DIE?! HOW COULD YOU?!" I shouted into Hiro's dead body, thinking as if he would answer my wailing call, my painful question. Running dry of words, all that's left are my tears and his cold body. I've been saying goodbye for the past few days without knowing I was doing it for my sake. Yelling, shaking his body, scratching my own body— I was in distress. Nothing left to do. It was the same pain I felt when Kira and Loki died."YOU!" Venus shouted at Olivia, who was still thinking about what I'd said earlier regarding her daughter."Is Yna okay?""YOU DARED TO ASK THAT?!""Stop acting as if it wasn't you who took out Kagome's heart! Stop acting as if you're not the one who has killed Hiro!" I snarled.Yelling isn't enough to show my anger, to deliver my message to her— no concrete actions are available to show it to them. Ugh, my heart hurts. My chest compresses so tight, my belly is moving so fast. I know what's next— it's our baby forcibly coming out. I wanted to ask
"ANGELINA!" Hiro shouted, pushing Yna away from me. He held me closer to him. Between his arms, he enveloped me. The way his voice raised scared me as well. Yna breathes heavily in an attempt to stop herself from shouting and doing something that could hurt me and irritate Hiro. I could've just stared at them, doing the conversation, saving me from humiliation. I could've let Hiro do the talking, and scolded Yna because of what she did that I don't even understand. Standing like a statue here won't do. Gently, I removed Hiro's arms wrapped around my shoulder. Facing Yna, I examined her. I looked around. "What did I do to him? Scratch his face? Slit his throat? Even cut his wrist? How did I do that when I'm here, unconscious, gaining back the energy I lost the last time I made a contact with the enemy?" I say, crossing my arms across my chest. I looked at Yna fiercely and examined her. "You don't have to know about it—" Hiro says, and I cut him into talking before the stupid repress
