Decisions

I sighed and released Yurikami from my mind. The stain left a numb feeling in my mind. Yuri instantly reacted and seemed to be doing something or other. My mind was fogged still from the strain and pure tiredness. Even with Kai's chakra all I wanted to do was go to sleep.

"Hachi you going to be ok?" Kai asked.

"I jussst need a na.....p......" I closed my eyes for one second and was transported into a dream world. It was peaceful so serene it worried me a bit.

Maki

Yuri did something fast, but at the moment all I was worried about was Hachi. He seemed to have passed out.

"Hachi?" I asked quietly. "Hachi?"

"He's just sleeping don't worry Maki," Kai answered.

I instantly felt relaxed. I was so happy he was safe. I looked to Yuri and sure enough her eyes were still black. Whatever she had done appeared to be done.

"Yuri?" I asked.

"Ya I'm still me," Yuri smiled.

"Yuri can I talk to you elsewhere?" I asked.

"Um....sure," Yuri said looking back at Kyo for an instant and then nodding to me.

We both walked until we were out of earshot. I turned to face Yuri.

"Yuri," I started, "I don't know if you know but I am Hachimata's girl friend, and I don't like it when he is in danger....."

"You are Hachimata's girl friend?" Yuri asked surprised, "But you seem human...."

"I am human," I answered, "but that doesn't change anything."

"So......what is it then Maki-san?" Yuri asked.

"To put it bluntly, if you ever lose control and hurt Hachi again I will personally dismember you," I answered.

There was a silence that came after that. I continued to stare directly at Yuri.

"You must like Hachi a lot," was Yuri's answer.

"He is special to me and I don't want to see him hurt.....Don't lose control ok?"

"Don't worry I fixed everything," Yuri smiled.

"Good," I answered.
