[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru soon had fallen asleep with Eci in his arms, his head leaning hack against the wall.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci was in pain, and he was groaning, shivering in Mitsuru's arms.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru was a heavy sleeper. So, since he didn't feel Eci shiver, he didn't wake up. He groaned as he moved his back a bit, a slight cracking sound able to be heard.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci woke up with a start, and felt arms around him. He had forgotten that Mitsu had been holding him and pushed his arms away in a hurry, backing into a corner despite the pain.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru had several bruises on him from fighting off the guys that had raoed Eci. There were scrapes on his knuckles and dried blood on his shirr, as well as blood caked in his hair from a head injury he recieved.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci was lucky to have survived his injuries, and even luckier to have been alright from the rape. A medic walked in and took Mitsuru, going to heal him. Eci was left alone.. But he wasn't that concerned anymore. The guys had their pleasure filled up.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

(( I'm thinking of making a girl for Ken.. ))

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru had come back in Eci's room once he was awake and patched up. He was shirtless, but there were bandages are his torso and he had stitches on the right side of his forehead along with bandagaing around his hands. "Eci?" he said sodrly as he walked in.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci had moved himself onto his bed and was lying down, looking at the ceiling. "M-Mitsuru..?" He whispered, hearing the familiar voice speak to him.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru winced at the pain I'm his wounds and nodded, walking over and sitting on the edge of the bed to stroke Eci's hair. "Yeah, its me..." he suddenly tensed up, and his hand stopped striking Eci's hair. His eyes were shut tightly with pain as his head throbbed. "Seems I got a concussion..."

((That'd be so cute!))

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

(( yup yup ))

"It's my fault, you know.." Eci murmured, touching Mitsu's hand and he gave it a small squeeze. "I injured my own king.."

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru blushed and his eyes opened, "No...no no no, Eci, its not your fault at all! I chose to get hurt so I could protect you..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"I was weak, Mitsu. I couldn't protect myself. I.. I lost to a few people." Eci murmured, looking down with an ashamed face.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru frowned, "You just need a little more training, that's all...you're not weak, Eci...they ganged up on you, what else could you have done?" he winced again and held his head. "Damn it..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"I could have defended myself. Yet.. I lost and they.. they.." Eci buried his face into Mitsuru's shoulder, sobbing quietly.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru winced at the pain in his body, but hugged Eci tightly, stroking his hair. He would killed the guys who did this to Eci...he hated it when Eci cried, it made his heart throb.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"S-See? I cry just by thinking about it." Eci sobbed, but had a weak smile on his face.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Because that's a scary experience...if I were you and I went through that I'd probably cry too..." he the. leaned incloae, "Just to let you know, I used to be really weak, but I learned that I was the next King of Stellar, so I had to become stronger...to protect the ones I love and care about..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"You don't seem weak to me." Eci began, wiping away his tears. "You're already strong.." He whispered, blushing a little.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Yeah I guess so...but I went through a lot as a child. I lost my parents, and ended up joining a gang of theives with my brother Hayato...but I was taken in by the previous King of Stellar and he raised me like a son...I used to be really emotionally sensitive back when I was 14, and I would get upset easily. But I went through a HUGE change." Mitsuru then blushed as was told hr was already strong, smiling softly, "You ate too, you just haven't figured it out yet..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci listened to Mitsu's tale, nodding slowly so as not to hurt his head. "I.. I'm not strong, really." He said, thinking of those times when he had managed to actually beat one opponent.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsu smiled, stroking Eci's hair. "You know, another reason I wanted to get stronger... was to protect you..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"M-Me?" Eci stammered, blushing profusely. "B-But.. I.. Why me?"

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Because..." he leaned in until their lips were inches apart, "I love you..." he whispered, missing Eci softly.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

(( Can you post first in the Town please? ^^ ))

He loves me...? Since when.. Eci thought and just blushed a lot.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru was looking at the ground, blushing deeply and obviously becoming shy. He didn't know what to say now, considering he had just confessed his love to Eci.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((Natsu-chan?))

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

(( oops ))

"Don't be shy!" Eci felt guilty because of him, his King's personality changed drastically.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru looked at Eci and bit his lip, kissing him deeply. He pulled away and blushed again, standing up all of a sudden, "I-I should probably go..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"If you want to.." Eci said, looking down at his carpeted floor.

(( Town please? ))

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

((I posted there over 5 hours ago -_-"))

Mitsuru walked out and quickly walked to his room. He closed the door behind him and leaned back against it as he sighed heavily. His heart was pounding.

((His heart was going dokidoki XD))

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

(( Whoa.. XD Dokidoki!! ))

Eci blushed a lot and he covered his face, smiling like an idiot. Mitsuru really surprised him.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru suddenly winced and coughed, sliding down to the floor. He heard a knock at the door and opened it, seeing Hayato there. "What Hayato?" he asked, still blushing.

"Phone," he said, holding out a cell phone to Mitsu.

Mitsu took it and ended up talking to his weapon suppliers only to learn that they wouldn't be able to get him the explosives he needed.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci sat in a corner, reading a book as he recovered from his injuries The kiss Mitsu had given him had dulled out all the pain..

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsu walked into Eci's room, looking at him from the doorway. "Eci-chan~"

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

Eci looked up from a mid flag flip. "H-Hi."

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru smiled and went over, sitting down beside Eci. "How are you feeling?"

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"I'm... Fine." Eci said, already blushing.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Are you sure?" he then blushed and looked away, "S-sorry...I probably shouldn't worry too much...I mean, you're not a little kid, so I know you can take care of yourself..."

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"No, I actually feel comforted when you ask.." Eci whispered shyly.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru's eyes widened a bit and he looked confused, "You...do?"

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"Well it makes me feel that someone at least cares for me." He said.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Of course I care about you...you're a member of Stellar..." He grinned and ruffled Eci's hair, wrapping an arm around his shoulders.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"I mean you cared for me like a brother." Eci explained.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Brother?" he looked away, "I see...I do have a brother...you know Hayato, right? Tall blonde guy, somehow can catch things on fire with his bare hands? I get so confused on how he can do that when he's never been in HOMRA..." Mitsuru began to think.

Hayato peeked his head in the door, "I heard my name."

"Its nothing, Hayato. I was just mentioning you for something." Mitsuru yawned and Hayatk shrugged, walking away silently.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"It's weird the powers people in clans have.. Are you sure he never has been in HOMRA?" Eci asked. "I remember this Scepter 4 kid... Yoji, I think his name is.. He doesn't remember even joining HOMRA but they found the tattoo on him, giving him the red aura.. But he remembers none of it." Eci added.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

"Hayato is always by my side, either that or he's here. Well he goes somewhere else, but I don't know where that I'd. Though he's never joined HOMRA. I'm positive." Mitsuru shrugged, "Besides, he's too loyal to join another clan."

Hayato poked his head in again, "Can you please stop saying my name?" he asked, his face expressionless.

[Holt, Fire, Blood, Swords, Chemicals, Brains, Shadows, Ice, Order.]

"Sorry... Hayato." Eci grinned, getting his old personality back. He used to forget easily and luckily he did. The previous incident had already been forgotten.

[Izzy, King of the Stars]

Mitsuru chuckled, "Its so easy to irritate you, Hayato-kun," he smiled, and Hayato walked in, grabbing Mitsuru and putting him in a headlock only to ruffle his hair.

"Don't say my name again," he said, and Mitsuru laughed.

"Okay okay! I'm sorry!" he said as he continued to laugh.

Hayato let go of Mitsu and had a small smirk on his face as he walked out.
