Fate [Closed]

[Karisa]

Karisa slowly walked back towards her manor that she left so long ago (10 days), leaving Faust behind. She learned new things, felt different feelings and is somewhat different. She knew this much, but how will he react? No matter how dark she turned, she would love Faust overall, or at least till he didn't. Naku would follow, hiding in the shadows as no one could nor would see. Her conversation was Yana was interesting and she knew she would have to lay that on him. She loved Faust overall, but to threaten someone such as Yana would not cut it. She gave her piece of mind to Yana, made up and all...without even getting a piece of her like she wanted. Her love for Faust even chained her lust, her desire and greed to have Yana for herself, giving up all that for him.

She sighed softly as her white pigtails would bounce a little at each step, walking forward upon the trail of her manor. Her eyes of blood red would blaze as she saw her place finally. There was the fact she heard from Yana that Faust was either allies or with the people that attacked Tokyo and her. She also remembered that she brought the name up, but didn't even say anything to her about being allies or anything with them. It sort of irritated her as she felt like he was hiding things from her. She felt like he was hiding even more things from her now and that promise of never hiding anything, was a lie. She felt somewhat tricked, but due to her love for him...she wanted to give him a chance.

She'd walk up the stairs, still semi-dark and hurt from all the things she experienced in the past ten days. Opening the door she didn't even bother closing it as she just left her shoes behind, taking them off. She'd slowly lower her gaze as she had a grim facial expression, went towards the kitchen and looked in the fridge...thinking on everything and on what to eat.

[Faust]

It was odd to be there all alone, the home seemed so empty so vacant it felt as if this place was dead. It had been ten days since she had left to go and speak with someone. He sighed he didn't know if something had happened to her, but he guessed that this was a bit of a payback for him leaving for a week. He was showering when he heard a door open, he stopped mid shower and turned off the water wondering who had opened the door.

With a towel wrapped around his waistline he stepped out of the bathroom and saw that the door to their bedroom was still closed so it wasn't that door that was opened. Stepping down the hall half wet he saw that the front door was wide open and a familiar pair of shoes were draped by the door without care. He assumed that Karisa was home, if she hadn't gone to the bedroom then there was one other place he had an idea where she went to Stepping into the kitchen he saw her there standing with her long white pigtails. He smiled as he stepped towards her and wrapped his arms around her. “Welcome home love, where have you been?” He pulled away from the hug with a smile across his face, happy that she had come back and wondered what caused her to just up and leave like that.

[Karisa]

Sighing softly she would continue to look through the fridge, cabinets and all of the other places where food would be stored. ''Geez...how long has it been since they've been to the store?'' she questioned to herself out loud. She heard some steps, guessing it was some of her servants. ''Hey! We're out of food.'' she spoke disappointed and frowned upon the fact. She closed everything as she heard the footsteps coming closer. No one was saying anything, which became a little creepy. Who was she to guess who that person was...

Karisa would yawn softly and then darkly look around as perhaps she would go out to eat or something, but where was Faust? She had a lot to say to him. As she was thinking of all this, she would then feel some arms wrapped around her. She felt a string of warmness, a shock through her heart that felt like some great high feeling. She could smell a fresh shower scent, creating only one guess. ''F-faust?'' she questioned softly and weak as she felt somewhat weak to his feel, no matter how darkened she was. In due note, she has never really spoke the words 'I love you' to him, even though he has to her many times. He questioned her on where she has been. She knew she had to talk, she had to say something as the last time...she just left him behind.

Turning around slowly she would look up into those beautiful ice eyes of his with her own bloody moon ones. She would have a small smile as she tried to hold her darkened feelings between the death of Layton and the information Yana told her. ''I...had a call saying to meet someone and well...They ended giving me another text to go to the base, dressing in black. T-turns out...that...'' she started to speak, lips quivering. ''Someone that was like my brother, died in battle...'' she spoke softly. Something went amiss though as her voice then turned darkened. ''...Everyone keeps dying...or disappearing from me...Who will be next?'' she spoke in her womanly voice that she never really used with Faust around. ''And then I had a call from Yana...'' she left off as she would look away.

[Faust]

He listened to her words and where she had been, death was something that was common in the real world and more so in the digital world. He didn't know how to feel about this news as it wasn't someone he knew, but it was someone that she did care about. He re wrapped his arms around her and held her tight. “You should of told me, I would of gone with you love.” It was strange to think that she would of gone to the funeral all by herself, it didn't seem like something she should do nor would of done, but for now he didn't question it.

With his arms around her he spoke softly and sweetly to her. “I'm not going to go away alright love.~ I'll be here until you no longer want me.” He held onto her for a bit before letting go, his still somewhat wet body getting parts of her shirt wet. “On that note, I do need to dry off, so how about after I dry off and get some clothes on we get lunch?” He had heard that she had spoken to Yana, but he had already assumed that she was with Yana before all of this and didn't know that there had been a funeral for someone that she knew and cared about.

[Karisa]

Karisa looked down as she continued to gaze at the floor. she couldn't get herself to look at Faust. For some reason though, even when she left him behind, he would wrap his arms around her again, holding her tightly though. Her chest would go against his naked chest, due to him only being in a towel. He said that she should've just told him. She would've if she knew what exactly the message meant at the time. She only did find out when she was far away from him. Her body, her lust, her everything missed faust truly. She noticed something though, he ignored the fact that she went to see Yana. Wasn't he curious on what it was about?

Soon enough he would say that he would be here for her, as long as she wanted, but he had to go get dressed. ''Alrght...I need to shower anyways.'' she spoke softly and then followed him. She had to bring it up, but when was the perfect time? She could just tell him when they went up to get dressed as when she showers. She nodded in agreement within her mind that she would talk about it while she went to shower.

As she would go into her room and into the bathroom, she would turn to look at Faust. For a second after looking at Faust, she would go and get undressed within the closed shower (so she couldnt be seen naked) and turned on the shower. Softly she would hum as she would feel the water go down onto her body as she started to think.

[Faust]

With her agreeing he simply kissed her on the lips once and walked off to get dryed off and dressed. He didn't make a joke about joining her in the shower given he had just showered himself and wanted her to get ready without any sort of distractions. He wondered what she had spoken to Yana about, but really he was more interested in why it took her ten days to get back home. Hadn't she made him promise to meet her every night at home, if she wasn't going to keep up her side to make sure he was, why should he? The answer was simple for him, because he loved her.

While she stepped into the shower he dried himself off with the towel he had around his waist and started to get dressed, this time picking a white outfit he had bought a little while ago instead of going with his traditional black and purple get up. While she showered he would wait for her in the bedroom thinking of where to go and what to do. It would be the first time in two weeks that the two of them had dinner together, so what to eat...

[Karisa]

Karisa would hum softly a soft tune, a tune of a song that she once and only once, sung for Faust. She remembered it clearly as it brought them together. Things went through her mind though as she was washing her hair, body and then she could feel it, her scar. She had a scar upon her body that was always well hidden by clothes. She hasn't even modeled swimsuits due to it. It somewhat saddened her at this fact. She sighed softly, opening her lips to speak to him. ''F-faust...? I...We need to talk about something important after I'm done or during this...Doesnt matter when...as long as it's today.'' she would say with a sorrowful tune.

Her heart would somewhat sting as she thought of all the info, but she would be rather lightful right now. She knew that the only time she could be truly lighting, was with him. She couldn't even feel that same girlish self anymore around Yana. It was as if her darkened self was devouring her more and more at every moment it got. Her hand brought itself to her chest, feeling her pained heart beats as the water dripped and drained. Her head tilted up as she let the water wash her face, turning off the water and then steps out after wrapping herself in a towel. Her head would tilt a little to look at Faust and then walked away as to where she couldn't be seen.

''So...anything special I should wear? Or maybe should pack to take with or we just going to a normal restaurant?~'' she teased softly, brushing her hair and looking at herself in the mirror.

[Faust]

His mind was wrapped with ideas about what to go and eat. There was a great Italian restaurant nearby that he knew of that they could walk to, or a sushi place that offered a great selection. In downtown New York there was a small little Chinese restaurant that offered some of the best Chinese food he had ever had. There were so many different choices and places to do, but each of them seemed to a better choice than the last. He sighed as he tried to figure out where to take them to dinner, this wasn't suppose to be a special dinner, just an everyday dinner, a normal date night.

As he heard her say that they needed to talk he sat up on their bed and looked at her as she walked out of the bathroom with her towel wrapped around her. “No, there's no need right now love, but you said you wanted to talk right? Well I guess it would be better to talk now before dinner right love?” He kept his view on her as she stepped away knowing that there would be something to talk about. He sighed and looked at her wondering what she had to tell him. Was it something to do with Yana or maybe who died.

[Karisa]

She would continue to brush her hair and stared at the mirror. She was in hope for things, but then she heard his answer, a no. She wondered if something that was planned last time they met, changed due to her leave. 'That's fine then...' She'd darkly think as she would hear him say that it was okay to talk about it now. She sucked it up, the lighter self giving the role and red carpet for her darker self to talk about this. For lighter Kari, this was somewhat hard for her to really do. She would take a deep breather and then started to talk in her rather womanly dark voice.

''So Yana told me about something that had to do with Shin Seikai group. Not sure if you're just allied with them or part of that, doesn't matter to me. What does matter to me is that I wish you would've told me. I feel although you don't trust me enough as if I was some part of some organization that was rather dark, I'd tell you. If I went sacrificing people, I'd tell you and even show you, but I don't.'' she started with a mouthful. She would walk away from the mirror to grab clothes from her cabinet, not giving sight towards Faust. This was serious business so she couldn't make herself feel weak.

Karisa walked back to the bathroom to get dressed so he didn't see any scars that she got from the SS group at Tokyo. She took another deep breather as she would say another mouthful. ''Faust...I know me leaving you behind that day was the worst choice, but I didn't want to tell you what I wasn't 100% sure about. I wanted to tell you when I got back. Honestly...if that event made you change your mind in whatever you had in mind at the point...'' she started and wanted to finish that sentence, but couldn't. ''I want to know rather or not you have second thoughts...about us.'' she spoke as a sharp pain went through. Softly her hand would hit the door, having it shut, closing the space between them as she felt like so within her heart...that was left anyways.

[Faust]

There it was, what she needed to tell him, the fact that she thought that he was a member of the Shin Sekai, she was right of course, he was a member, but it wasn't something that he advertised because of their reputation in the digital world. He let out a heavy sigh as he watched her step into the bathroom and close the door behind her. Slowly he stood up and walked to the door, putting his hand on the knob before turning it to enter the bathroom unannounced and wrapped his arms around her. He held her there for a few moments not saying anything before taking one last deep breath before speaking.

“How could I tell you? The woman I love, how could I tell her that I was a member of the Shin Sekai, the fear that you might reject me because of that was something that I couldn't bare. Before you ask, I've always been in them, it happened only a few days after I joined the digital world, but let me ask you this, how could I tell you that knowing what others think and knowing what we do. Karisa I didn't want to lose you, that's why I didn't tell you anything and no I have no second guesses about our relationship. So tell me love what have you been doing these past few weeks?”

[Karisa]

Karisa sighed, felt his arms wrap around her as she was starting to get dressed. Gladly she had on her shirt and panties in which, covered the scar. She didn't want him to know about the scar, but she would happen to tell him what has happened. He explained on the reason, the truth of him actually being apart of that so called organization. Why would he think such a silly thing? 'Reject him for something so stupid? Hah...' she'd think and continued to listen on how he didn't want to lose her and then questioned on what she has been doing for these past weeks. ''What have I been doing during the times we were not together you ask?'' she questioned as she tilted her head up to look at the mirror in which rejected him, staring at him in a way. She made a rather grim face...

''I joined a group to help a friend. I went to battle with them, fought with them, bled and even almost died. I then came here, had to leave so early and grimly to find out that someone that was like a brother, died in the very..same war you were in.'' she started and sighed simply, closing her eyes to then open them up again half way. ''I talked with Yana about what she did to you, what she found out and then I came back...'' she spoke and finished. Karisa would look at the mirror once more to look at Faust...waiting for him to let her go and also thinking on what to wear.

[Faust]

He kept holding her tight as she spoke, it seemed as if everything that had happened to her was rather eventful. It also seemed as if the second attack the one that the Shin Sekai hand planned she had got wrapped up in. Yet everything was said so peacefully and rushed that he felt as if something was wrong, something seemed off about her. “Karisa, why do you seem so calm about all of this. It's off..... it seems odd.” He slowly let go of her, but not before turning her around so that he could look at her in they eyes, brushing a bit of her hair out of the way. She never was this calm, or peaceful when it came to things like that so it felt wrong. In the pit of his stomach he felt as if there was something twisting and turning there, a sickening feeling as if she was lying to him, or about something.He didn't want to think that she was, but her behavior was off. This wasn't the same girl who blushed when she first came out in a swimsuit on the beach that one time.

[Karisa]

She would stand there, waiting for him to speak, say something. Karisa sighed softly as he would ask why she seemed so calm, it was odd to him and so on. Her eye brow arched a little as she then was turned around, looking up into his blue beautiful eyes. His white snow hair and is strong-like facial structure. Something about him, turned her on more or was it just the effects of her combining her 'souls' into one when she was unlocked? She took a deep breather of his scent to calm her nerves down and then licked her somewhat dry lips. Her eyes of red would look into his deeper, into his soul as they simply glimmered. ''Oh yes...During the attack and battle, I was attacked and well...they got my blue eye. The blue was meant for the soul that you once loved...and that one was scarred.'' she would start and look away.

Karisa knew that either he'd give up at that time or he would try to drag her out, but she wasn't even done yet in explaining. ''Anyways...'' she would start once more and look into his eyes. ''After finding out of someone close to me dying...I realized that I was weak in emotions...causing 'me' to be released. The one that you're thinking about is still here...That me is sleeping...'' she would lowly say and lowered her gaze. She would get out of his grasp and head for the closet to grab something. Part of her, deep within, wanted to cry as she did feel alone, besides with Naku during the war. Even though she was saved, had backup as she was other people's backup...she felt weak and alone. ''I also found this...'' she would say as she pick up a hoodie with a cat-like hood. Her hands gripped it tightly as her heart was struck, somewhat making her tear. She would quickly hide that tear, sucking it up as she would turn...showing no emotion.

[Faust]

Her words confused him slightly, but he sort of understood what she was saying. As he let her slip away he smiled at seeing that she had the cat hoodie that he had picked out with Yana. It seemed as if she did give it to her. “Wear it love, it might be cold where we're going.” With those words said he stepped to her to kiss her forehead before leaving the bathroom to allow her to get fully dressed. She would find him waiting in the bedroom for her with a smile across his face and a gate opened up. His choice of clothing was rather casual as if he should be relaxing around somewhere and not something to be worn as a date outfit. “Let's get going, we're going to be late if we spend any more time standing around.~” He said in a loving tone as he grabbed her hand and walked into the digital gate having them exit out in triton city near the one movie theater they had. “Apparently the digital world get's it's hands on all the latest movies somehow so lets go watch one.”

[Karisa]

Karisa would slowly walk towards the window with the hoodie in hand and some other things as she changed her mind on wearing jeans. Her body turned to look at Faust as he spoke about them getting no where standing like this. She had to somewhat agree which she then closed the door onto Fausts face to change. She'd block the door playfully so he couldn't see till she was all the way dressed. She slipped up her skirt, kitty hoodie and lazily did her hair. Something within her felt lit up as her heart would explode with feelings and stuff. It was as if she was back to her old self. 'Is it the hoodie?' she questioned as if it was because of it being a cat hoodie...it warmed her heart.

She would then walk away from the door slowly and giggled, seeing the door open most likely to see a Faust. Her face blushed shyly and smiled happily, making a cat posture with her hands in a paw form and so forth. ''N-nya.~ Let's go Faust kun.~'' she spoke softly and soothingly, twirling around and ran out the door. She didn't like exiting from her room and she knew she had to make this somewhat fun for herself. Weirdly she knew where he was talking about as she would then stop from running out of her room, standing against the wall right next to her room door.
