Since then, everyday was agony. Ella spent the eight months, drawing blood and forcing me out of his body. It hurt, so much. Too much that he forgot everything in his life. When I was finally out of his system, he was... Empty. Like some used container-drained from its contents.

And right now, this is great advantage. For the witch at least. And if no one does something, chaos will happen.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Eat." Ella grinned, giving a spoonful of food to the tied-up Blackstar, who was grumbling. "Get that shit away from me."

"You're not hungry ? You've been here for, uhm, two days ? Without eating ?"

"I can last for four without doing so." Blackstar snickered. Ella pouted, and sighed. "I can't let you starve ! What about dear (y/n) ? Oh, she'll say I didn't take good care of you." She huffed, and suddenly placed a hand on his chest, making the said assassin turn slightly red.

"Don't you think this is the opposite ? You should be the one taking advantage of something like this. But look--I'm the one taking advantage of your... Hmm... How should I say this--oh, right." She snickered. "Bo-"

"I'm reserved for my girlfriend, bitch." He glared, and grunted, forcing his knee up to hit her stomach--making her grunt in pain. "Unlike you, I'm awesome. I do not call shit mine unless it's actually mine."

Ella glared back, and punched him in the stomach, making Blackstar groan. Then, when he did, he was cut short since she shoved the spoonful in his mouth and forced him to eat.

"Tch. Shut up."

"Ella !" Kuroshiro ran up behind her, and showed a bright smile. "Ella---I was outside and I found this little cat !" He showed the said kitten on his hands, which was sleeping.

Ella stared down at it, before smiling. "You want to keep it as your pet or something ?"

"...U-uh... No..." He looked down. "...I want to give it to you." He made a small smile, making Ella sigh slightly. "Okay." She patted his head. "But... It's mine now, and I want to give it back to you. Keep it. You know, so you can have your little playmate."

"...Really ?" His eyes sparkled with delight, and he giggled, running to his room.

"...He's still him." Blackstar sighed. "Still cheerful..."

"But he doesn't know you." Ella grinned. "Or his own meister. You know, I'm not the villain here. You are." She glared. "I'm freeing him."

"Freeing him ? Pfft. Fuck off." Blackstar snorted. Ella crossed her arms. "It's who he really is, Blackstar. It's what he was made for. He was really upset when I got him-he can't get your girlfriend out of his head ! And I helped him do so. So he wouldn't have to be hurt all over. Just because your said girlfriend didn't really mind what was-"

"Excuse me, bitch." Blackstar said bluntly. "(y/n) worries for him. We even argued about him because she wouldn't stop thinking of how he is !"

Ella stared, before snickering. "It's too late for that now. He's free. He can be do whatever he wants-if he wants to kill, he can. I'm not restricting him to be himself--unlike you people. You wanted him kind and sane. So he was kind and sane. On the outside. But inside, he's insane---and now that I've helped him, and showed him it's okay to be who he is... He's better." She giggled, before leaning close to his face, threatening to kiss him. But Blackstar turned his head away, only to make her giggle more.

"Truth hurts, doesn't it ? You're speechless." Then, she fully leaned in, forcing him to face her, and stole a kiss. A heated kiss. Blackstar squeezed his eyes shut and struggled, wanting her out of his systems. Wanting her away from him.

...Wanting her...?

"So sweet." Ella mumbled when she finally pulled away, leaving Blackstar out of breath.

"Well then, I have business. See you later, dear." She shrugged, and turned to leave, going straight to Kuroshiro's room.

...He knew he didn't mean to... He knew he wasn't at fault since he didn't have a choice.

But he felt guilty. Blackstar felt guilty, not just because he wasn't able to fight back, but also because his little conscience said he liked it.
