Into The Wild

Chapter 8: Skyfall



Chapter 8

Kazuma Kuwabara walked calmly through the home. So many

spirits were disheartened losing their lives too young. Those souls were easy

to carry into the next phase. The warm happy man shrieked as he waved his word

slicing through chains around the spirits necks and arms.

This was taking too long when he arrived at the woman. She

stood in a lavander blue dress. Holding her necklace between her fingers.

Charlene Norega, the woman Rosario's father had an affair

with had followed him, and when he didn't chose her the woman jumped

from the balcony. Framing him for her death. The father didn't know what to do

so he fed her to the monster beneath the house

Sighing Charlene looked up expectedly and sighed sadly to

see the human.

"Have you seen Beau?"

The poor soul asked causing Kazuma to shake his head

"You're one of Beaus patients? Or wait? One of Rosie's

boyfriends? That cute little Japanese boy is so handsome."

Kazuma smiled and bowed

"Just Rosie's friend I already have a beautiful love."

The woman smiled sadly

"Beau just needs time to leave his wife she's unstable you

know, after the twins she had severe depression. He had to raise those kids all

alone while she did nothing."

The fact she referring to Rosario's mother Lilliana. Lilliana who

raised her children through PPD, worked two jobs to put her husband through

school and handmade every costume needed for plays Halloween, and fun time.

Lilliana who hardly saw her husband while he was in Med school.

"He just needs time."

"How long has he been saying this?"

Kazuma asked wanting to deter her the woman looked at him

her brows furrow in confusion.

"He will leave her!."

Confidence unwavering in her man's love for her.

"I believe you."

"He will."

"Of course he will, Beau only moved his wife and family to another

country to secure their future."

Her eyes narrow shook her head confused what was he saying? There's no way Beau would move.

"Moved?"

The sudden rise of negative energy spiked

"He left."

Kazuma coaxed the woman into remembering the truth. Beau had left her behind. Relocated to give his family a chance.

Lilliana loved Japan having lived their in her youth she even taught her children the language, it was their own secret code,

Charline became confused she stood hand to

her stomach

"I got an abortion, because he asked me."

The walls of the house began to shake as the woman raged her

pain manifesting and lashing out

"I killed my baby, because he asked me…"

The woman looked up glaring at Beau, Rosario's father, a man

filled with shame.

"Charlene."

"You promised me you would leave your wife."

"Baby."

"I did everything for you, everything you asked."

"Char."

"You never loved me! All you cared about was sex! Why would you do this to me? Why would you convince me that you loved me? Why wouldn't you jest let me go!"

"That wasn't the only thing, I cared about you, but you

became too obsessed. Stalking my wife harassing my children!"

"You used me,"

The entire house shook as she glared at the spirit of rage. Screaming

becoming black and decayed. A rotting ghost. When a spirt began to darken they

turn into a ghoul. A demon. The solid whites of her eyes glowed angry. A woman

in rage.

"I gave up everything for you, you used me."

Objects flew around the room when Beau was thrown back.

Charlene had a whole life, she would have just walked away but he told her he

loved her. Begged her not to go. She

tried to end things many times, but he promised her he loved her promised he

would leave his wife.

"I'm sorry."

Moving to the window Charlene looked down seeing Rosario,

his daughter the last living child. She glared at Beau grabbing the kitchen knife.

"All you do is murder your children."

"Charlene!"

Vanishing in red mist kazuma looked down to see Yusuke, with

Rosario. The man vanished chasing after Charlene..

Trying to catch the spirit he knew he could save her if he could just reach her.

The walls twisted hallways flying into different rooms, it

was confusing, the house still moved or maybe it was just the Soul Eater. Kazuma

Kuwabara stood tall, gulping he held out his hand as a glowing bright light

spawned forward exploding into a long shaft of a sword solid bright white

light.

Bracing himself the wooden floors began to steady as the

hall seemed to focus into a single point. Everything was quiet. Peaceful and

calm.

The calamity of spirits and ghouls seemed not to affect the

area. He could hear the gentle drumming as he walked forward to a long hall and

white painted door.

Kazuma had never seen this door, it appeared from no where

and he had a feeling if he opened it, he would find something special.

Kazuma knowing nothing behind the door would harm him opened

the thing to a white bright light.

A massive sun room filled with plants and cloth covered

furniture. A long large instrument covered in a white cloth strummed as a

slight breeze moved through it.

Kazuma stood holding out his award as a figure glowed and he

blinked shocked staring at the woman

Mayiko Tibia

24 years old

Level 8 psychic,

Moved into the home with her new husband to try and free

the spirits, on the first night of their séance, everyone was slaughtered and

hunted in the home. Brutally displayed in a grotesque menagerie of contorting

bodies around the massive mansion.

Mayiko was the only person missing among the carnage.

Location : Unknown

Status : Unknown.

Kazuma could only gawk as he bowed at the woman who only

smiled

Mayiko Tibia moved her long delicate fingers across the

hard, pale as paper her slender arms embraced the object, sighing as she hugged

the thing holding it tenderly.

She had missed the harp.

"Miss Mayiko Tibia?"

The gently note came to a sudden stop as the woman closed

her long almond eyes and smiled warmly, sighing in content Kazuma cleared his

throat.

"It's been so long since I've heard my name."

"Forgive this one."

Bowing in respect to the soul Kazuma did not with to upset her like he did the Mistress.

"Say it again."

"Forgive me."

The boy bowed deeply as she chuckled kazuma had worried he

offended the ghost.

"My name, say it again,"

Kazuma cleared his throat, trying to gauge her tone, she wasn't angry, or accusatory nearly sad. The echo in her voice told him she wasn't corporal.

"Mayiko Tibia?"

A deep sigh came to the woman

"One doesn't realize the extent of their existence until

they are no longer viewed by the world."

Kazuma cleared his throat. Nodding in agreement at her deep revaluation.

"Yes Miss. Mayiko,"

"Come now Kazuma, surly we can address one another

cordially, we hVe been acquainted for some time. Friends refer to this one as May."

"Miss. May."

Bowing formally the woman giggled at how formal and respectful the living man was.

"Kazuma was raised well."

"That is kind,"

 Bowing Kazuma waited, she needed something. Had been coming to him for days in his dreams.

What could it be?

Would she finally disclose the reason for her attention seeking?

"How can this one help?"

"The Soul Eater can only be killed when it detaching its

tongue. It will try to feed upon the next most powerful psychic."

Rosario as he realized this Kazuma blinked

"He's going to move on."

"Once he releases his hold my human body will die, I'm only alive because my energy developed as a child."

Kazuma stared

"The soul eater needs a powerful psychic to feed on. Otherwise his hold on the souls here will vanish."

"He wants Rosario."

"If she dies here, the Soul eater can overtake her body leaving her soul. she will become trapped. Don't let her die."

The house rattled as the soul looked around

"He knows she's here."

The home grumbled again in rage. Rosario had returned home.

~*~

Yusuke Urameshi grinned at the beaten and battered demon.

the thing in the garden had eaten many souls. It was clear that this was Gate

keeper #7 the plant demon. Not that Yusuke should even fight a plant as he was

more of a warrior class and not say a damn fire demon.

Yusuke was still bitter at the fact Hiei went after the

baseball player Han Zac. They guy was a jr. 

high superstar. He went missing in 1983.

Yusuke Urameshi loved baseball. One of the few academic

pastimes he enjoyed,

The sudden appearance of Rosairo made Yusuke blink as she

lunged at a demon stabbing it with a 10 inch large double pointed sharp blade. the blade

flowed a magnificent color of white silver.

The blade was not human. Made of some divinity.

"Woah how?"

"A demon killing knife."

Yusuke blinked stupidly as she fought beside the brunette

slicing the demon the blade was clean and sliced through like butter.

"It's dangerous to be here."

"No shit Sherlock. Why didn't you tell me you were coming

here?."

Sheepishly Yusuke replied

"Kurama said it would be safer."

Offended Rosario began a wicked lashing

"Kurama doesn't get to decide things for me, he is not my

boyfriend! He has no say."

Yusuke nodded in agreement not wanting to argue, the same

thought had crossed the detectives mind when he asked the fox the same thing.

"Are you ok?"

She asked cooling off seeing his wound, shrugging her off and dismissing her worry

"Im fine"

More interested in the blade Yuskes mahogany eyes wanted to see the knife

"What is that?"

"Demon killing knife."

Impressed Rosario handed the blade over with ease as Yusuke

nodded and stuck another demon with it. While Rosario looked at the garden

demon. It stared at her as she grinned

"Hey asshole, wanna see something?"

In a quick movement began to move her hips and dance towards

the demon. When she raised her arm and a single bullet lodged through the skull.

Currents of blue electricity sparked within the wound as it seemed to drive our

everything around it and die.

The whole garden suddenly became dim, and. Yet brighter. A

sudden calm overcame the area. It was peaceful. Kurama's energy began enclosing

around the garden.

Rosairo smiled at Yusuke.

"That was easy."

Admiring the knife Yusuke was impressed with the

craftsmanship. It was unlike anything he had ever seen. The pair walked to

toward the house when suddenly a sharp gargled gasp escaped. Looking down

Rosario stared at the large kitchen knife in her belly. Looking up at Charlene her fathers

Affair partner.

"Charlene?"

"A child, for a child."

She whispered and pulled out the knife moving to stab her

again, when Yusuke reacted stabbing the woman with the demon blade in the

heart.

Ear deafening screeching exploded around the garden as the

woman began to electrify and explode in millions of pieces.

Yusuke caught the girl who was bleeding rabidly she coughed

as he set her down.

"Fucking bitch."

She coughed sitting with Yusuke,

"I never liked her."

Insulting the woman Rosario coughed out some blood her stomach pouring it all out

"Shit! Oh Rosie!"

Yusuke's removed his shirt pressing hard into her stomach

trying to stop the blood To no avail. Warm hot liquid coated his hands in red blood. Spilling into the grass and roots beneath her.

"Fuck,"

She breathed and turned to her mother, who suddenly appeared

beside her father. The man was sobbing.

"I'm so sorry princess! Please forgive me! I'm so sorry!"

 

Rosairo felt a shift inside her stomach as she coughed out

blood.

Tears and blood mixed in to her face. Was this how it ends? Was this how she died?

Not the dream eater but a whore? And a dumb one at that.

"Fuck."

"Rosie!"

Rosario's attention shot to her mother, reaching out to the woman, who began to cry.

"Mommy."

The pain clutched deep into the woman, Lilliana cousknt allow this to happen. Couldn't let her baby die.

Lilliana would save her daughter.

"I don't have a lot of time, listen to me, I can save you,

I'll give you my souls energy, but once I do it I will vanish, and when I do it

will awaken your blood.

Rosie look at me ok. Focus on my words. On me."

Rosario was losing to much blood fast when Beau appeared. The hoorro as he couldn't stop his own daughter.

Kneeling to his knees he began to sob. His actions caused this. Being selfish killed his family.

"Blood?."

Rosario whispered

"Lilliana! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry Rosie baby. I'm sorry. Oh god I've killed both of my kids! I'm so sorry I'm so sorry baby. I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

Ignoring her husband Lilliana held her daughters hand. Rushing to explain, why Rosario could see ghosts. Why Luca was so powerful.

"Gold is our blood, protect yourself, don't trust any of

your cousins. Necromancy is filled with rules for a reason. I won't be there to

guide you. Trust your friends. Yusuke look after her. There are things in my chest. Use them to help guide you."

The blood was seeping through Yusuke's shirt and hands,

staining him with hot thick liquid as Lilliana hugged her daughter and began to

glow pure white.the wound began to heal sealing closed, the blood still

everywhere soaking through the woman's clothing. She was still pale, as she

breathed in. Deep breath.

Colorless, lifeless.

Beau broke down as Rosario gasped in coughing her heart

ached.

She let out a scream in pain, frustration and rage. Catching

her breath and finally breathing steady. Yusuke watched helping the girl up as

tears streamed down her face looking into brown eyes.

"What that fuck does any of that mean that mean?"

Shaking his head the pressure of energy imploded as Yoko

Kurama appeared. Sensing the blood as Rosario collapsed.

Pale surrounded in pools of blood. Cradled in Yusuke Urameshi's blood stained arms.
