MIYAKO DIANA AKIYAMA

I want to kill him! Kasalanan niya kung bakit ako nahihirapan! Why I embraced the darkness and let it consume me until I can't see myself anymore.

All my life I protected him at all cost! All my life I gave him love so that he can feel a sibling's love but he didn't saw it, he neglected it like a piece of rotting garbage.

He always let me see that I'm nothing. Nagtiis ako dahil mahal na mahal ko siya bilang kapatid ko, it's my responsibility as his older sister. Hindi naman ako nagkulang sa pag-gabay sa kaniya kahit wala na ang mga magulang namin.

I protected him from the dark miasma the forbidden book he opened. I was tortured because of him. I become like this because of him.

I look at him screaming and crying while he sees his nightmare. Kulang pa ang paghihirap na 'yan, brother dear, you deserve more painful than this.

Lumapit ako sa kaniya while I'm holding my knife. The flow of blood was majestic that my lips curved into a smile.

He roamed his tired eyes and smiled. A genuine one.

"Sorry Miyako, sorry ate kung magiging masaya ka kung mamatay ako if It's what your heart desire, go on, but I want you to know that I love you, ate," he said while tears flooded his tired eyes.

I heard the ting sound as my knife was dropped in the cold floor. I felt my body tremble and my hands ran cold. I looked upon him once again and memories kept flooding into me.

You're not like this Miyako. Don't kill your brother.

I heard a familiar voice in my head said. My own voice. The past me.

No! No! You need to kill him! Kiriko's orders. Kiriko helped me she cared for me when no one does. I need to kill Red, I need to!

Don't. Don't kill him!

I screamed tears and blood ran out my eyes. Stop it! I need to kill him but my head and my heart hurts just by thinking of it but, I need to... I need to...

Kinuha ko ulit ang kutsilyo sa sahig I need to kill him, it's for the good. You need to rest, brother.

"Nighty night little brother." Inihanda ang gagawin kong saksak.

But then again this tears can't stop falling. Gusto kong tumawa gaya ng kanina to show how happy I am that I was able to hurt him but my laughter betrayed me. My throat run dry and I can't even gulp. Something inside me is stopping me from killing him.

Then I saw one of Kiriko's puppet preparing a powerball in our direction the aim might hurt me but it would hurt my brother more.

And I don't know what I'm doing. I run into his direction to protect him.

Memories keep pushing me. My heart took control.

It was night hindi umuwi ang papa namin kasi he have a royalty work. Naiwan kami ni Red sa malaking palasyo kasama ang mga maids. Red asked me to accompany him because it's raining outside with thunder. I bet the lighting dragons enjoyed the rain and they create thunder as they party in their kingdom.

"Ate, ate! Ikaw ang pinaka maganda at pinaka-mabait na ate sa buong dragon realm!" wika ni Red as he prepare to sleep. He smiled sweetly at me.

"Sus nambola ka pa, Red. Halika nga rito. Hug ka ni Ate." I hugged him tight.

Kahit kailan talaga ang kapatid kong ito nambobola. I squish him like a teddy bear and pinch his chubby cheeks.

"Ate pwedeng dito ka lang? Wala akong kasama. I can't sleep. Please? You can shoo my nightmares away because my ate is a pretty dream catcher!" he pleaded and looked at me with his big sad soulful eyes.

I chuckled and nod. Humiga na kami and I hugged my brother as we sleep.

I was his dream catcher... I was...

"RED!!" I shouted and as I hit the floor I hugged him as I protect him from the blast.

I felt pain. I felt blood oozing from my nose and mouth but my heart felt light and happy. I hugged him more tight than before.

Sorry Red, baka matutulog na si Ate una sayo.  But I miss sleeping and dreaming with you Red. Ate misses you so much I hope na maulit pa... I hope...

"I'm sorry Red... I love you,"

"I wonder If I will still be able to wake in this dark and empty dream."

I silently muttered then darkness claimed my sight.

THYRIAN SERAPHINE TOMOYAMA

Sinunod namin ang sinabi ni Red. We scattered. Sa sinabi niyang direksyon na tatahakin ko, 'di ko nahanap ang kalaban namin ang sleep dragon. I fought few of Kiriko's puppet but nothing more.

I wonder kung sino ang nakaharap ng kalaban namin and natalo ba niya ang kalaban? After fruitless of efforts to lure the sleep dragon napag isipan kong bumalik na lamang sa pinagkitaan namin.

Ryoku is safe he hid inside the 666th door na sabi niya no one can enter unless na may permission niya. I bet he trippled the security in there after he was traumatized by the old hag.

I transformed back in my normal form. Napag-isipan ko kanina na I should be battle ready so I summon my dragon armor. The blue scales covering my body reverted back to skin my huge sword disappear and become an icy mist my dragon horn began to dissolve.

Then I ran pabalik sa 666th door. Nang makabalik na ko I saw Ryoku and Shinri talking. Wait, Ryoku and Shinri? But where the heck is Red?

"Where is Red?" I muttered at tiningnan nila ako confussion is written in their faces.

"I thought kasama mo sya," sabi ni Shinri.

I shook my head. No, it can't be! Did he succeed? Afterall it was his plan but why do I felt like there is something wrong and a bad feeling is creeping in me? My heart drummed in my chest and for the first time in hundred of years.

''He's in trouble!''

The spirit of the Glacier Seraphimy said. His cold voice echoed in me.

I clenched my fist and I ran hoping to find him.

"Thyrian! Where are you going?" tanong ni Ryoku at Shinri habang sinusundan nila ako.

Di ko sila pinansin. Instead I ran and ran. My face is wet from tears, ni hindi ko nga alam nakaluha na pala ako.

"Red please be safe," I silently prayed.

Until I stopped from running when I saw two unconscious bodies hugging each other and standing beside them is Kiriko's creepy puppet and it is holding a sword.

I prepared my weapon and slash the puppet's head and then I approached them.

The two unconscious bodies is no other than Red and the sleep dragon. Did the sleep dragon protect Red? It looks like she did. No matter how evil changed her, her being the sister of Red woke her up from her evil dream.

"Red!" I muttered my tears are falling 'di ko napansin na nasa likod ko na pala sina Shinri.

Please. Please wake up. I can't fathom seeing the man I loved hurt like this!

"Red! Wake up please. Don't die, please. I love you!" I begged as I sobbed.

"My, my look what we have here. My toy, the two royalty shits, my traitor puppy and Oh! of course me and this delicious prisoner," A familiar voice from behind said,  it was Kiriko.

Humarap kami kay Kiriko and I gasped in shock seeing a familiar face; tied in chains he had a chain attached too in his neck na hila hila ni Kiriko. His red brownish hair was cut in shoulder length style, his eyes closed 'yung dating walang ni anong galos na balat niya ay puro sugat at lapnos. His sculptured chest was exposed na punong-puno din ng sugat. He looked tortured.

"Yuki...''

Kiriko faked a shock face then giggled hinimas-himas pa niya ang dibdib ni Yuki and Yuki flinched. Her eyes gleamed in malice and pure evil.

"My, my, Thyrian! 'di ka ba nahiya na you confessed to another guy while your dear fiance was still here. I bet he's heartbroken, right baby?" she giggled again and cupped Yuki's face.

"Let him go! Masyado ka ng malandi Kiriko," matapang na anas ni Ryoku then shot a blast to Kiriko na naiwasan ng bruha.

"My, are you jealous darling?'' Kiriko purred mockingly then she laughed madly.

Kiriko looked at me again and grin, "What about this Thyrian, I'll kill both of your guys because you're so irritating are you okay with that?"

I looked at her sharply. Power surged in me.

No, she won't hurt anyone anymore! Not anymore. Not Red! not Yuki! not anyone!

"Now you've done it bitch.''
