II
It had been a week.
A whole week since his suicide attempt had failed.
A week since his friends had been watching him closely.
Kuwabara kept a façade of aloof calmness, but he was seething inside. Didn't they understand! His life had to be forfeit, or it would cost the lives of all he cared about!
'If I can't die…then I have to get away…they won't take my family again.'
His thoughts then turned towards Shizuru. She had been tight-lipped about the ordeal since his failure, and she wasn't revealing his secret to anyone. 'Only because she feels guilty…she didn't have The Gift…so she was spared from the ritual.' He could never forget. He still heard the shouts in his head clearly. The curses spat at him. The garbage thrown at him.
The irons that branded him.
The knives that cut him.
The mask that blinded him.
Kuwabara shuddered at the thought. He still remembered that awful instrument. It was a pure white, with two purely silver stakes jutting inwards from eyeholes. An 'Instrument of God' they called it. Humph. They used it to "purify" creatures such as him…the family that held…The Gift. He clasped his head tightly, pulling at his hair as the memories assaulted him.
######
A five year old Kazuma Kuwabara was nearly dragged down a lonely dirt road, away from the Italian village—and cult—that despised him.
"Kill that child! And catch that whore too!"
"No! Run faster Kazuma!"
The road ended here, turning into thick foliage and gnarled tree roots. The woman pushed her child, encouraging him to flee into the wood.
"Mommy...mommy, don't leave me!"
"I said go! Take your sister and flee from this place!"
"But I don't wanna go! Why can't you come with us, why!"
"Kazuma…"
"Mommy…I don't want anyone else to die!"
"Oh…my sweet son…" The woman knelt down to kiss the brow of her child, wiping away the tears that flooded from his blue eyes with the pads of her thumb. Alarmed by the sounds of the mob coming closer, she quickly pulled a chain of white gold with an onyx locket dangling from it from around her neck and placed it in his small palm, curling his fingers around it.
"I love you, Kazuma. And I will always be with you. You just won't be able to see me. Do you remember how to get to the shipyard in the big city?"
Kazuma had stopped crying, wiping his nose with his free hand. "Mm-hm."
The woman breathed a sigh of relief and hugged her child once more…she would never see him again. "Now go, and be brave. Make mommy proud."
With not a moment to spare, the boy took off into the forest. He followed his mother's orders and didn't stop, even as he heard the sounds of a body being broken and smelled burning flesh. He kept running. He wouldn't stop until he found his sister at their home, and led them to a Japan-bound ship where they hid amongst the cows and horses for weeks as the ship made its voyage.
He would make his mommy proud.
######
"…wabara. KUWABARA!"
Kuwabara jumped, his mind snapping back to reality. He was huddled in a corner of his room, his right hand bloody and embedded with glass shards. Yuusuke had him by the shoulders and was shaking him. Kurama was carefully pulling the shards from his hand, scolding him gently for breaking his mirror with his bare fist. Strange…he didn't remember ever looking into it…
"What the hell is wrong with you!"
"…What?"
"You spazzed out in here like a maniac! You punched your mirror into pieces and clawed at the walls until Hiei stopped you!"
Kuwabara blinked once, and then looked around. Hiei had apparently left. He turned his attention to the wall. There were deep claw marks embedded in the wood. His eyes widened, and he immediately snatched away from Yuusuke, ignoring the shock on his face and the gasp of Kurama, whom he'd accidentally scratched when pulling away.
His head hurt…he was feeling dizzy.
"Kazuma."
"No…"
"Kazuma…"
"NO! NOT NOW! LEAVE ME ALONE!"
"Kazuma…"
"Dude…calm down. What's going on…?"
"I have to get out of here…I have to leave!"
Before the plant that Kurama had grown to secure him could strike, Kuwabara jumped at the closed window, barreling through it with a force the other two boys did not know he had. He landed in a crouch on the sidewalk, throwing himself into a frenzied run, an onyx locket clutched in his fist.
He had to get away…before the black-eyed man came…
######
"Oh no. It's started, hasn't it…?
The two stunned demons in their human friend's room turned to Shizuru just in time to see her collapse. Kurama caught her before she hit the floor, clutching her tightly as she struggled to breathe.
"Shizuru…you have to tell us now. What is happening to Kuwabara?"
She bit her lip to muffle the sobs she knew were coming. "My brother…my baby brother…"
"Please, Shizuru."
She looked up at him, meeting his eyes as slowly as she could. "I…I have been sworn to secrecy. But I can tell you this. There is a man with black eyes…a soulless creature of 'God.' Don't let him near Kazuma. You have to protect him; I can't anymore. The demons he is facing now are of the mind. Promise me you will do it. Both of you."
"There's no question. We look out for one another, and we won't let Kuwabara be in danger, whether from this guy or himself."
"I too swear this. We will protect him."
Shizuru sighed and rested against him. "Good. Now go find him."
Kurama nodded and placed her on the bed, praying that some semblance of accord and sanity would return to the Kuwabara family.
"We need help in this. I just tried to catch him…and he bit me."
Kurama turned to check the wounds of the newest arrival to the room, and was taken aback by what he saw. "Hiei…those bite wounds look..."
"Animalistic. I know."
Yuusuke stood up, searching around the room for that stupid pager. "We need to talk to Koenma."
#####
"So, you understand, then?"
"But father—"
"You will not disobey me this time, boy! Those…beings are an abomination before God and man. They break every rule of nature to gain power in their selfishness!"
"That's not true and you know it! Only malicious—"
"Silence! You will give the order; this is for the good of all mankind."
"For the good of mankind…you never cared for the well-being of mortals."
"You're blessed by the Devil's Luck that I sired you, or you would be beheaded for such an insult."
"I will not give the order. He has been through enough."
"We are all victims of circumstance; I will not allow a simple sob story to blind you to the threat this creature has become."
"Father no…"
"Now, soldiers! The last of these—parasites—shall be washed away from the face of the worlds! Today, I decree, Kazuma Kuwabara shall die!"
The helpless screaming of the Rekai prince was drowned out by the deafening chorus of cries filled with bloodlust and warmongery.
#######
"Kazuma…can…you…hear…me…?"
Deep within a sheltered wood, Kuwabara hung his head low, panting with exhaustion.
"…Yes."
A deranged smile blossomed across his face and an otherworldly glow lit up his eyes.
"Soon. Very…very…sooooooonnn…"
#######
Author's Note. The plot thickens. Did that satisfy you a little, buddy? :P
Next chapter coming soon (if I get another day off, that is.) It'll rock your socks! ;)
C&C are always welcome!
