Chapter 23: Risuki Yotori

     It's been five years since I've seen Suki. Once I realized we got separated I tried everything to get back to him but nothing worked. I talked you my uncle explaining everything to him but I looked at me in shock and then pretended like he had no idea what I was talking about.

"I know about Death City..I grew up there, we all did but walking though mirror that makes you pass out...Are you sure you weren't just dreaming."
"If I was dreaming why is the ring that he gave me it with him and not still on my finger?...."

   He looked at me in silence.

"I know you miss him but I think your going-"
"No?!?! I'm not going crazy?!? All of it really happened!?!"
"Little Fang, I think you you need to forget him cause his making you go crazy... You need to see someone like a psychiatrist cause this is getting out of hand.."
"But-"
"No, I'm sorry but you need to forget him...I know you dont want to but it's not healthy..."
"I....."

  Ever since then he wouldn't let me say his name. I started to become depressed. I really loved him but I guess that I know it wouldn't last. I never stopped thinking about him though but I started to forget something's about him like the way he looked or the way he laughed which scared me. Now after five years I have I cant remember certain things about him.
       I was walking to my art studio with supplies for a new painting for a client. Once I got there I set them near the rest of my art kit and went take little nap cause I was out all day.  Jut when I was about to lie down there was a knock at the door. I grunted  and reluctantly got up to answer the door. I opened the door and stood there in shock.

"Long time no see.."
"Jade? What are you doing here?!"
"Why? I can visit a friend?
"Yes but the studio is a mess."
"Doesnt look like it?"
"That's because you haven't stepped inside yet."
"Let's get some coffee!"
"Its 6:30 in the afternoon and you wanna get coffee?"
"Do you wanna catch up or not?"
"Fine just let me go change"

   I closed the door and she started to shout.

"Seriously?!
"Its for a good cause...I'm telling you it a mess in here."
"Well hurry up!"

   Jade and I have been friends since college. I up on as ripped Jean's, a white tank top, some Doc Martin's, a black leather jacket and beanie that Isuki had. I opened the door and grabbed my wallet and keys.

"Your going like that?"
"Look who's talking. Your wearing sweat pants and sweater.."

We walked to Starbuck's and ordered our coffees. Once we sat down she started to fidget in her chair.

"You know how I've been seeing Kirori?

  Ever since that incident, I haven't spoken to him nor told Jade about it cause I didnt want her to hate me nor not speak to me.

"Yes, why?"
"He proposed and I said yes!"

     I sat there in shock.

"Congrats?!"
"And...I want you to be one of my bridesmaids?!"
"What?"
"You heard me?!"
"Uh...Sure I'll be happy too.."
"You dont sound happy..Do younot want to be-"
"No, I'd love to.."
"Great!"
"But if i am going to be one of the bridesmaids, I'm not wearing pink, yellow, nor orange"
"Who does that and I know"
"Dont ask.. So what are the color of the dresses?"
"I dont know.."
"How about lavander?"
"Not bad...I like it!"

    We chatted the entire night away until she had to go. We said our goodbyes and went our separate ways.  I finally was able to get in bed and sleep then suddenly a voice came in my head.

"Riki...You can't possibly forget me....I'm coming for you....Just wait a little bit longer and I will be by your side...I promise.."

   I woke up in cold sweat. Once again I'm hearing voices in my head. it's been going on for years now like someone's trying to reach out for me. i got up to get a glass of water. After that I went back to bed. My blach and white cat, Lyra jumped on my bed and purred. I rubbed her belly until she fell asleep. Why do I keep hearing the voices and sound just like Isuki's...No, I.. it cant be... Suddenly everything that my uncle made me forgot about when it came to him, came back to me and i had a feeling Isuki had something to do with it. I got up and walked up to the mirror and saw my reflection I could see myself just fine but my vampire side the out of nowhere Isuki showed up with his arms around me with cuts and bruises on him and a chain around his neck, ankles and wrists. Tears streamed down my face as I walked backwards shaking. W..What happened to him?
    That whole night i couldn't sleep. I was in shock of what happened last night and I was scared of what happened to Isuki. I went to take a shower and change. Once I finished with that I went to grab a glazed doughnut out of the pantry. Then I got a knock on the door. I opened it and was shocked.

"So, I hear you going to be one of Jade's bridesmaids.."
"You came all the way hear just to say that? How stupid...What do you want?"
"I know that we are not on the best of terms but I just want to let you know that I am happy to know that."
"I accepted it because I want to be there for my friend...It has nothing to do with you and if that is all then good day!"

   I was just about to slam the door in his face when he was able to trap the door with his foot.

"I have know where he is.."

I opened the door slightly enough to see only half of him.

"I know where Isuki is being held prisoner..."
"How did you know that he was being held captive? Last time I've checked not only did you have no clue of where he was and didn't look for him, you stabbed him in the back, so why now are you looking for him?
"Because he's my friend..Best friend since he first moved here in Los Angeles."
"Well where is he?"
"You'll find out soon enough.."
"Tell me.."
"Fine but..."

   He opened the door, grabbed me by the waist and pulled me in to him.

"But its gonna cost ya.."

   I kissed me and pushed me through the door. He walked in and took of his tie.

"This is gonna be fun..."

   With that he closed the door and locked it.
