Rita pov:

I entered her mind easily since she granted me the permission to. I didn't have to break in.

Rita:Can you hear me? Kia.

Kia: rita... Why are you here?

Rita: I need a favour from you.

Kia: favour... But what kind?

Rita: open the barrier for me.

Kia: but nii-san will be upset. What if he scolds me? What if he dislikes me? What if... He decides to abandon me?

I knew it. Her mind is too occupied over her nii-san. All her feelings in disarray. Nothing to grab on. The only real thing she thinks she has a grab on is, her nii-san. Well I don't blame her. She has been obsessed with him since... Who knows when.

Letting out all her cooped up feelings after it has been locked up for so long... Of course it would be painful. Meaning... I have no choice but to break her.

I walk towards her and hug her. Let the illusion begin.

I stand by her side and whispers softly " kia... How about I lead you to your nii-san?"

Kia: really? You will do that?

Rita: um.

So easy to lie to. Not even a doubt. If it was the normal her she would have doubted me and pushed me out. How fragile you have become.

Rita: first walk out of the room you are at.

She walk towards the door and tries to budge. Damn. Its locked. I am seeing through her eyes.

Rita: kia, where's your sword?

Kia: katana... Confiscated...

She kneels down and cry " I can't see nii-san.... Like that... "

I wrap my arms around her neck " its ok. I'll think of something. "

Kia: really?

Rita: um.

I'm so glad I'm a pervert :) . I once peeped while kia was showering so I know something people don't really know. The transmutation circle she carved on her back.

Rita: put your hand to the door and break the door. You can destroy the door easily.

Kia: I can?

Rita: you have a circle on your back that destroys everything. Remember?

Kia: you're right... Alright... I'll not be so violent. I'll just break some of the molecules.

She puts her hand to the door and alchemy reacts. The door handles and a clink sound could be heard. A chain. Its broken. She pushes open the door and walks outside.

Kia: where's... Nii-san?

Rita: in the security room. He's always guarding. Like how he guards you.

Kia: you're right...

She walks around a little and meets someone. A guy. " kia, how did you get out?"

Kia: I just did.

" shouldn't you stay inside?"

Kia: I want to see nii-san.

" eh... "

Rita: kill him. He's going to keep you inside and not let you out again.

She grabs his arm and a huge alchemy reacts. He screams and turns into dust. Literally... Moleculised. How scary I_I Luckily I'm on her good side.

Kia: gomen... I just wanted to see nii-san...

She starts crying again collapsing on the floor. " I'm evil!!! I'm evil!!!!" I hug her " you just want to see your nii-san. They're being evil. You're just taking out the good. "

Kia: I see... Arigato rita.

Finally she manages to find the security barrier room. That huge circle on the floor. It wouldn't be wrong.

Kia: where's nii-san....?

Rita: destroy that circle and your nii-san will be freed.

Kia: but... Isn't that a barrier system circle?

Why is she so smart? Annoying...

Rita: it is. His soul is trapped in there. Destroy it and release him.

" okay... " she touches the floor and alchemy reacts. As expected of kia. Huge energy and stamina. She destroys the floor easily.

" gomen kia. I lied to you. " and I dissapear. I could hear her screams in agony " why... Why....lie to me?!!!! "

I open my eyes. Damn... I feel bad now.

Rita: its done.

" alright than. " al creates a door and the girls go in. As planned they go to look for the people who defend this place. To make a distraction. Ed wakes up, then realises what I've done. He stares at me with unhappy intent.

Rita: its not going to change a thing now.

There were more people than I think this place would have. Looks like it wasn't just any big empty place. Al and ed created spikes from the floor and impaled the men before they could make an alchemy happen.

More men started pouring in the room...

Zihein: isn't that troublesome?

Yuki: hehe. More bodies to take in.

He poked gently at cheek " you mischievous. "

Yuki: bleh.

Zihein: taeyin, clear a route for them. As for the rest of these idiots. It should be easy for me and yuki to clear.

Ed: but...

Zihein: don't get in the way you Chibisuke.

Ed: fine!!! I won't help you!!!

Al: nii-san...

Taeyin: urusei already.

Taeyin put her palm in the air " run. We'll deal with here. " the transmutation circle on her reacted with the air and electricity was produced. A large ray of electricity striked one clear path. Men screamed and collapsed.

We run through the path made for us. That's when... The troublesome thing I wad worried about appeared.

Rikoa: hi. Messing around with my place?

Rita: it looks like you aren't as arrogant as I think you are.

Rikoa: I've a lot of men hiding in places. How's that not arrogant? I knew you would come in.

Rita: numbers are cowardly. If you only had a few people here,that's arrogance

Rikoa: I can't seem to fight you. Can I?

Rita: not in reason. Not now. *smirks *

Kia: why!!!! Why....!!! Why can't you let me see... Nii-san?!!!

People screamed from that room.

Rita: go. I'll handle him.

Ed: don't die.

Rita: hmph. Like its that easy.

Ed pov:

So they're blades clanked and I go past. What the... Blood everywhere. Corpses too. One crawled to in front of me... Than collapsed. My mouth opened in horror. I covered my mouth while my eyes widened still in shock.

Al: its... Horrible....

Kia: why... I... Just wanted... To see nii-san...

She walked left to right with her body swaying. Her eyes empty. Like rita had said... Kia is broken. Meaning...

Al: she... Killed all of them?

Ed: seems so...

Her hand stained with blood. It is her.

Al: be careful nii-san. She doesn't even have a blade in her hand. Look at these bodies... They were missing of something. Like it was stolen. Not killed by a physical cause.

Ed: ah. Its... Horrible.

I look to her again.... Her eyes were flowing with tears. Are you sad?

Al: what strategy do you have?

None. I just ran to her and hugged her " are you sad? That's why you're crying. "

Kia: I.... Can't find nii-san.... I've did what they asked me to. I can't... Even see nii-san.

Ed: your nii-san is fine. Alive.

Kia: really?

Ed: um. Don't kil anymore. Your hand is dirty.

She looked to her hand " You're right.... I'm... So dirty... Gomene. Gomene " she started to cry again " they didn't want me to see nii-san!!! "

Ed: kia... What can I do to make you come back to your senses?

Kia: what do you mean? Ed. I don't understand.

Ed: you were kind and strong. Cold but understanding. You didn't kill people for stupid reasons. You were logical. You were cute *blush* at times. Especially... When you kissed me the other time. I still remember. Do you even remember any of those?

Kia: remember... That was the kind of person I... Was?

Ed: um. Rita said you were the type who cried alone.

Kia pov:

Are you done?

Huh? I don't understand.

I'm your subconscious. You locked your feelings up so you never would have to cry. So you could be more logical than anyone. No?

No!!!! Its... For nii-san... Um.

For your friends. Comrades. Your father threatened to use them.

Nii-san said they would be safe!!!

Are you done being childish?

Eh?

Nii-san... Nii-san... All these stupid feelings you locked up just because you don't want to face them. You were just taking advantage of the circle they embedded on you on your front.

So what?.... It was easier to handle that way.

Honestly... I wouldn't have given a shit. But now you're out of control. Look at yourself. Obsessed over nii-san.

I've always been... Obsessed over nii-san...

If he hadn't unlocked that circle, your feelings wouldn't have poured out all at once. Now you've got to face them head to head.

Than when I couldn't... I ran to nii-san... Again...

I'm glad you know. I don't remember myself being so pathetic. The world is in stupid shit and here I am crying my ass off over nii-san.

I know...

I don't believe nii-san is the only thing you've got.

Kia: ed... Can I have you?

Ed: huh....?

Kia: by my side.

Ed hugs me harder " of course. "

I'm.... Such an idiot.

Ed pov :

Kia: you can stop hugging me now.

Ed: kia...

I let go. Yup. She's back. That eyes and that confident look.

Kia: I need my damn stuff.

She goes to retrieve it. Her katana by her side. Her metal pieces by her hair.

Ed: kia... How did you kill those people outside.

Suddenly she hugs me and squeezes me " I've nowhere to hide... So let me. For a while... Gomen. I didn't want to. I'll show you everything... Aftet this. " her fragile side. I've never seen it.

Rita pov:

*clank clank clank * what an irritating guy. Not using his alchemy at all. I can't kill him now. There's a chance kia might lose it again.

Ed: we're done.

Kia: nii-san...

Rikoa: kia. You're back.

Kia: why did you open it?

Rikoa:to make you do something.

Kia: what.... Did you make me do?

Rikoa: you really want to know?

Kia: hai.

Rikoa: kenja no ishi.

The three of them, their eyes widens. " what.... "

Kia clenches her fist " I see... Makes sense. I would have never agreed. "

Rita: kia. Gomen. Earlier I...

Kia: urusei. We're leaving.

Rita back steps and returns to their side. "sayonara nii-san. " kia stabs into the ground and a hole was destroyed to dust. They went jumped through it and made for the run.

" rikoa-sama!!"

Rikoa: its ok doug. Let them run. Their friends probably already dissapear. Yes?

Doug: hai. Why let them go?

Rikoa: its funner that way.
