Chapter 13 - The Change Part 5

I can see it...

All the way from down here...

The light...

I can see the light...

Maybe that night...

I really did die...

Maybe that night...

My life was over the moment...

I pulled...

That trigger...

I'm sorry... really...

I'm going to leave you...

Inari...

Jise...

Natsuno...

I never really got to see her...

Grow up...

Jisei...

Protect them for me huh?

I...

Can't live anymore...

Not with their eyes...

Still on me...

I-

I-

I...

I can still feel her on my shoulder...

Her teasing... 

Her longing...

I should've been hers...

A long long time ago...

It's cold down here...

So cold...

Please...

My long lost love...

Warm me up...

Warm...

Us... both...

Atsushi closes his eyes, his aura all spent, his body all fatigued...

Most importantly...

His spirit... all broken...

He never really could escape them...

Her...

And now...

It all ends...

He reckoned...

.

.

A whole dome of bodies pile themselves high to protect Atsushi, whose body just shakes and whimpers from the extreme exertion of aura... 

Yukki's eyes widen, his shock so palpable, an opening so huge and wide is seen...

A white flame is lit...

His arm is sent flying several meters away...

Musen... did it...

And in using Shion's aura as a source...

Yukki jumps multiple spots away from his newfound enemies...

Especially her...

Shion!

He coughs up blood... hand on wound...

Gaping...

Rushing...

Flowing...

Running out...

"Shit.. shit... shit... SHIT!!!!!!!" Yukki screamed so loud it send shockwaves right across the valley, Shion snaps her fingers... the thick mist reverts back...
