Deus Didymus: Sunder

Chapter Sixty-One

As if their bodies ran in sync, Kyu and Hana opened their eyes, yawning at the same time before looking at each other.

Kyu stared deep into Hana's eyes, smiling as the pair hugged each other. Not a single word floated between the two. They didn't need words, their eyes told the whole story. As if the cogs of their hearts began turning, faint arcs of lighting bounced between their bodies--connecting momentarily, sharing one another's thoughts and feelings before fizzling out for another pair of arcs to connect.

In the few moments that had established their lightning link, they completely understood each other. their fears, their wants, their love. Everything.

Giddy smiles panned both party's faces, connecting their own ears together. Love filled chuckles and giggles danced in the air, painting their intimacy with the air as its canvas.

Faint hums flickered in their ears signifying their established link which not even the strongest of forces could pry apart. In that moment, it was just those two in a world of extras they didn't care about.

Suddenly, the lightning from Hana's body grew in intensity, sending a fluttering feeling through the taller's heart. His senses heightened and the world appeared clearer. Bubbles of euphoria rose to the top of his head from his feet, parting their feelings through every cell in his body.

Without skipping a beat, Kyu fired back with his own arcs of lighting, blooming buds of pleasure in the small girl's heart. In her mind's eye, small pastel petals pulsed outward, quickly washing over with a soft gradient of purples, pinks, yellows, and greens.

Kyu lowered his arms from the young woman's upper back to her waist, pulling her deeper into his embrace.

You look as cute as ever.

My face is caked in dirt.

And? So is mine.

I don't see the correlation...

Should we bathe before we head out?

There's a river not too far from here.

Let's bathe then. It's been a few days since I've been able to wash your back.

Let's make it quick. We're behind on schedule because 'someone' decided not to wake me up.

You were too cute~

Hana hid her face in her duo's outfit causing him to rub her head as he chuckled.

Let's go.

Mrs. Yabuki leapt to the soft ground, gesturing toward the large wooden buildings.

"There's a lot of them, but we should be able to take it over relatively easily."

Junho let out a soft sigh through his nose, pinching his chin.

"Okay. The three of us will move as a group and take out whoever comes close to us."

"We should aim for the main building first. That's where most of the stuff is," Miyeon suggested.

Junho turned toward the set of buildings, "Which one is the main one?"

"The red one," Miyeon replied, "It's probably the most guarded."

Junho nodded, taking a step forward.

"Let's begin this."

Mrs. Yabuki darted from the bushes, throwing a flurry of shuriken at her nearest targets. From behind her, Junho and Miyeon charged forward with their sights set on the path toward the large red building.
