Chapter 35
"Hey Prisma...mind leaving us alone?" Nitski asked
"Sure. I understand" Prisma said and walked away from them
"Hey Archie...I know we're best buds but...I hate jokes. Especially if they're not funny..." Nitski said slightly harsh
"I'm not joking. During the fight...we ended up encountering a couple of prisoners in the forest. They were lost and seemed to want to hide from the demons. We brought them here and...your father who was in charge of the dungeons ended up recognizing her. He is calling for you both" Arch said
"M-mother...is back?" Juhin asked as he trembled with eyes filled with shock and fear. On the other hand, Nitski wore a serious and cold expression
"...we'll speak with him later. Come on Juhin. Let's move" Nitski said as she grabbed his hand and took him away. Juhin's ears dropped slightly along with his tail. The two Mizusawas passed by the guard and Arch couldn't help but glance at their expressions again
What is up with them? I know they were abandoned but...I have never seen those expressions on their faces...especially Juhin's
"I hope they're okay..." Asher mumbled. The two Mizusawas walked out of the recovery home and stepped outside
"H-hey...Nitski?" Juhin asked. Nitski remained silent as she walked ahead of him still holding his hand
"U-uh...are you okay?" Juhin asked
"...just keep walking" Nitski said
Flashback
"She's gone..." The man said coldly as he only stared at the window
"Wh-what?" The young 5 year old asked as she trembled. Her father sighed deeply before looking down at her
"Just forget her already, Nitski. She left you and your brother..." Her father said
"B-but...mom said sh-she wants to st-stay. Sh-she told us...th-that...she w-will be with us. Mama promised us to be with us! She said she was going to get me a birthday present soon! She can't be gone!" Nitski cried as she pinned her ears down
"Get used to it... because the people you trust the most...are the ones that leave you behind" Her father said before he walked pass the weeping girl. He took one last look at her before shaking his head
"I'll be back since I have to do my job. I'll tell your Auntie to come over..." He said before he walked out of the house. Nitski only trembled as tears streamed down her cheeks. A blue haired boy only looked at her and trembled a little
"O-onee-chan?" The 4 year old asked as he trembled. Nitski only hugged herself as she cried. Juhin trembled as he pinned his ears down and walked up to her
"H-hey...Onee-chan...i-is mama...coming back?" Juhin asked. Nitski only shook her head and covered her face. Juhin kneeled down and hugged her tightly as he teared up
"D-don't cry...sis" Juhin said as he trembled. Nitski hugged him back tightly as she teared up and cried on his shoulder
"M-maybe...mama will c-come back" Juhin said
"I-I...want m-mama to come back now..." Nitski cried. Juhin trembled and looked down a bit
"I-is it...my fault?" Juhin asked and Nitski only hugged him
"...sh-she will come back. W-we just have to wait..." Nitski whispered as she tried to calm herself down. Juhin trembled as he shut his eyes tightly and started crying
"I-I miss mama..." Juhin cried softly
"I miss h-her too..." Nitski said as she trembled
End Of Flashback
Nitski and Juhin saw their father standing by their place
"Ah...you're finally here" Takuma said as he looked at them
"Hey old man...just spill it. Why are we actually here?" Nitski asked
"Just step inside..." Takuma said as he opened the door and walked inside. Juhin and Nitski stepped in and heard a couple of voices pass the other door. Nitski and Juhin felt their chest tightened as they were close. Takuma only looked at the door before opening it. The people in the room were silent as Takuma showed up with the two Mizusawas behind him
"They're here. Now good day" Takuma said as he turned his back on them but Nitski kicked him
"Hey old man...you have some explanation to do" Nitski said
"Hm...very well" Takuma said as he sighed and face the trembling woman who stood next to another man
"So would you like me to tell them or will you finally quit your crying and fucking talk?" Takuma asked
"Watch your mouth..." A man spoke as he glared at him. Nitski and Juhin only trembled as they saw the beautiful red head woman standing in front of them. She teared up before trembling and walked towards them
"A-ah...i-it's really...you" She mumbled as her voice began to crack. Nitski only crossed her arms over her chest glaring at the woman
"You really have some nerve for showing your face here again..." Nitski said coldly
"S-sweetie...I...I n-need to-"
"Don't call me that. Just call me by my name. I'm not a stupid kid no more. So just fucking explain yourself already damnit. Do you know how pissed off I am already?" Nitski asked
"N-nitski...I never m-meant to hurt you like this. I-I was just..." Her mother frozed before covering her mouth trying to control herself
"Quit it. I hate hearing your bitchy cries" Nitski said
"Don't disrespect her" The man said
"Shut it you bastard!" Nitski snarled
"Honey...there is no need to waste your time with them. Can't you see they're not the same no more? Let's head home before our children start asking where we are" The man said
"Wow...so guess you had more after those twins eh?" Takuma asked
"You fucker...they were young. Just newborn...and you decided to kill them all because your twin died" He said
"You should've known the consequences..." Takuma said
"What the fuck is he talking about?" Nitski asked. Takuma sighed and looked at her
"You were suppose to have a twin brother but unfortunately...due to his weak body and soul. He passed away when your mother gave birth to him. On the other hand, you survived and remained strong. His name was...Naoaki" Takuma said and trembled but shook it off
"I'm waiting for a fucking explaination..." Nitski said as she looked at her mother with her cold eyes. Her mother trembled as she kept tearing up
"N-nitski... I'm s-sorry. I'm...really sorry. I-I just didn't know wh-what to do-"
"Do you know how much I fucking prayed for you to come back? Each and everyday I would wait at the door for you to come back. I trusted you. I believed in you. I loved you. I spent years waiting for you to come back...and after those years that's when I realized...you were never coming back. I gave up on you...and moved on. I decided to forget everything about you and just kept moving forward with Juhin. I actually made friends and soon began to enjoy my life again. Thanks to Auntie...I was able to get through this pathetic pain of mine. I'm actually quite happy...until you came by and ruined it for me" Nitski said
"N-nitski...I just...really couldn't do it. I-I understand h-how much you hate me b-but... I'm really s-sorry. I didn't m-mean to run a-away like that...it's just that...h-he-"
"Don't point the blame on me. You're the one who couldn't bare it. You were the one that was weak unable to handle this entire shit. You just decided to run away from all your problems leaving them behind" Takuma said
"Because you wouldn't stop with your obsession!" She said
"Obsession? Hahahaha...pathetic bitch. You were clearly playing with me...by sleeping with him. My best friend who I trusted the most and the one who stood by my side in the darkest times. You two were very close to me...and the ones I actually cared about...but after you betrayed me...heh...everything just went downhill from there. Are you proud? Is this what you wanted, Esumi" Takuma asked as he smiled mischievously
"You were only harming me!" Esumi said
"I was...and? Is that an excuse for leaving them? You know damn well I really wasn't going to stop you. You could've taken them both. But instead you ran away with him and lived your life" Takuma said
"Is that it? Is that why you left? You abandoned us for another man?" Nitski asked
"Wh-what? N-no...well...s-some of it i-is true but your fath-"
"Is an asshole and a bastard. I know that damn well...don't think I'm fucking defending this bastard. But I must thank him for at least teaching me not to be a bitch like you..." Nitski said and her father couldn't help but smile slightly
"N-nitski...I thi-"
"No Auntie. I'm not done. So you ran away with him. Okay I understand that. You found a new love but why did you have to fucking abandon us?! I really don't care about your stupid asshole of a boyfriend but you should've came back to us! Were we not important or what?! Did you not care!? Why didn't you care!? Why didn't you keep your promises!? Why didn't you come back on my birthday like you said you would?! Why did you leave us alone?! We were just damn kids! Kids who didn't understand why their mother never returned! Did you not love us!? I always looked up to you! I wanted to be like you! I wanted to be beside you!" Nitski shouted and trembled. She clenched her fists tightly and looked down
"Not only did you abandon me and Juhin...but you also...abandoned him. You left us three behind...all because you were so god damn weak and pathetic" Nitski said as she pinned her ears back and gritted her teeth
"N-no...Nitski dear...Juhin...you two...r-really are important to me" Esumi said as she tried to touch Nitski but she only slapped her hand away. Nitski looked up as her eyes glowed and her mother's tears rolled down her cheeks as she saw her dead son's soul behind Nitski
"I hate you..." Nitski spoke softly but Esumi was able to hear her dead son's faint voice as well which tore her heart. Nitski turned around as she headed towards the door
"I'm done talking to you. I'm glad you left us. I didn't turn out to be a crying bitch like you. Come on Juhin. Let's move..." Nitski said and Juhin only trembled as he saw his mother crying. Esumi only cupped both Juhin's cheeks as she tried to hold him but Juhin pulled away
"You...never truly cared. Was it...my fault?" Juhin asked
"J-juhin...n-no...I truly c-cared about you both" Esumi whispered
"If you really did care about us then why...didn't you come back when we needed you the most?" Juhin asked as he looked at his mother with teary eyes
"N-no..." Esumi whispered as she covered her mouth
"Let's move" Nitski said as she grabbed his hand and took him out of the house
"N-no! Nitski! Juhin! Naoaki!" Esumi cried but Takuma stopped her from leaving
"Leave them be...can't you see they don't want nothing with you?" Takuma asked
"Y-you...you did this to them!" Esumi said as she looked up at the man
"Me? You're the one to blame. Would you like me to tell you how Nitski cried and pleaded for you to come back. Or Juhin who thinks he was the reason for your disappearance. Those two kids wanted you the most...obviously they hated me but I didn't mind that. I didn't care about them. I only did what I had to do and train them in becoming warriors. And that's what I did. Nitski and Juhin...have a strong bond. Over the past years...they've been by each other's side. They've bonded quite well and have been pushing each other to become the best. Of course they had a childhood where they could play and have fun...but I knew there was something great in them. Nitski and Juhin pretty much hate you now...but...there might still be a chance for you to enter in their lives. You'll just have to wait..." Takuma said before releasing her and turned his back on her
"And if not...then just fuck off. You said you already had children right? Just go with your children and leave them alone...slutty bitch" Takuma said as he smiled
"You fucking bastard!" His friend said before running towards him and threw a punch across the face. Takuma blocked it and raised his knee up high kicking his stomach hard
"Agh!" He groaned in pain and fell onto the floor
"No! Don't hurt him!" Esumi said as she rushed over to him
"Unfortunately the Queen has ordered an arrest and will be throwing you into the dungeons. For working with the Aihara, you will be judged by the Queen so...good luck" Takuma said
"W-wait what?" Esumi asked
"Soldiers!" Takuma said and the guards came rushing inside before grabbing the man
"Agh! H-hey no! Wait!" The man said as he moved around but the guards dragged him out
"What the hell are you doing?! Why did you arrest him?!" Esumi exclaimed
"Why not ask the damn kids what your husband wanted to do to them? I did my job and brought the kids over. See ya around I guess...you can stay and wander around...just don't get in my way of their training. Nitski and Juhin still have a lot of work. Understood?" Takuma asked as he glared at them before stepping out. Esumi only trembled clenched her fists tightly
"I-I...hate him...so much. Ugh! Wh-why did I even met him in the first place?" Esumi mumbled. Jinah walked up to her and patted her back softly
"It'll be okay..." Jinah said and sighed
Obviously the reunion wasn't going to end well...haah...I just hope this doesn't screw them over
"N-nitski..." Juhin said
"What?" Nitski asked as she gritted her teeth
"D-do you think you went a little too far?" Juhin asked
"Huh? What the hell do you fucking mean?" Nitski asked
"B-because well...you know...she seemed really upset and hurt" Juhin said
"What about us? We're all hurt and upset!" Nitski said
"B-but maybe...we can h-heal and bond together as family" Juhin said
"With that crying bitch of a mother? Fuck no! I'm not wasting my time with her. She already has a fucking family. Another family, Juhin! Can't you see she doesn't want us?! That's why she had more children with someone else. She just...doesn't want us because remembers the past" Nitski said as she pinned her ears down and looked down
"N-nitski...I know this is tough and all but...I-I want our mom back. M-maybe we can work something out with her. We can all get along like before...r-right?" Juhin asked. Nitski remained silent as her tail moved from side to side
"Get along...with that bitch? Hmph...as if. Can't you see she already has a fucking family? Just man up and forget her! We don't need a bitch like her in our lives! She never cared! She suddenly came back because of her husband! Not because of us!" Nitski said
"Then why did she call us over? She clearly wanted to see us..." Juhin said
"Forget it. I won't waste my time with this" Nitski said as she turned her back on him but he grabbed her before hugging her
"D-dumbass!" Nitski said as she started smacking his head but paused as she noticed a few tears rolled down from his cheeks
"...I want us...to get along but...I can't do it...without my big sister" Juhin spoke in a soft voice. Nitski only wrapped her arms around him and patted his head softly
"...fine. You win, you little baby. We can try being a family...again" Nitski said
"Thanks..." Juhin said as he smiled
Heh...always works
