'One day, your painful memories

will definitely become the knowledge you need

to protect yourself, and the people you love '

When they first met, Kazuya encountered her during her worst state. He came back later at night and found her amid her mental break down. Lyn couldn't forget the words Kazuya said to her then.

Kazuya is the one who said those words aren't you? But even now, she can't see what good those memories would do to her. If he were to find out, if he were to find out that it was because of her.

Kazuya never forgive her. No, a part of her knew it already that he would welcome her back with open arms. 'No matter what she reveals to him.'

Lyn understood that all too well. That's kind of person he is.  He would welcome her back with a bright smile no matter what happens. No matter how much blood is shed because of her, he would treat her the same.

'Sorry,' Lyn apologized in her head. All she can do is hurt people.'

Her gaze landed on the red colour on her hands. She supposes it can't be helped. The last few guys were rather persistent and beating up this many and sustaining only a wound like this was already enough.

She took out her messenger crystal and weakly brought it to her lips. ”I'm done master.”

”Ah good work. I'll the others. Hey Lyn, did you at least left them alive? They need to be questioned after all.”

”Don't worry I left them alive.”

Sometimes she found herself being afraid of Kazuya. She tended to be mean to things that she liked. A sick and twisted mind set that developed a long time ago.

But it was different with Kazuya. That fool who smiled all the time looked so fragile in her eyes. Despite how strong he is, whenever she saw him, he looked so fragile and vulnerable.

Kazuya is strong, brave and courageous and yet there is something about him that draws people's attention. Because of that even now she can't take her eyes off him.

Her entire body felt terrible and she was still unsteady on her feet. Her feet had yet to make a full recovery, so she still limped slightly. 'This was a bad idea.' Rhys and her had a fight about this, which ended up with him not talking to her for two days. Whenever she returned to his place, he wouldn't be there. It's like he purposely timed when she would go home, since she would see signs of him having been there.

Her thoughts broke off when she heard footsteps behind her. 'Just what she needed.'

Lyn didn't need to turn around to know who it was. ”I finished.”

”Hmmm, what a good job. When you're not fooling around you can actually do work it seems.” Shioka commented as he strolled over and inspected the bodies on the ground.

She couldn't miss his mocking tone and sighed. ”I already did the work, why are you still being annoying?”
