Chapter 4: Miseria Cantare

Love your hate, your faith lost

You are now one of us- AFI

I stared up at the crimson walls, barely able to breath because this man slept like a rock and refused to let me go.

As a glanced about the small room, I took notice of the finely detailed paintings.

Mostly waterfalls, sunsets, beautiful scenery and things of the like. It was oddly comforting, as if you were

drifting away from this dreadful place and into somewhere more alleviating.

And like a blessing the man with the death grip on my waist yawned, eyes fluttering open to reveal orbs of a

deep emerald speckled with gold.

He blinked at me before a devilishly cute grin appeared on his face, “Wow...your cute.” a laugh came from

his throat, reaching out a slender finger to poke my forehead. “Who are you koibito?”

I was, ofcourse, mortified at being called such a thing and a light pink color brushed my otherwise pale cheeks. “Kai...”

I spoke softly, staring at the other blankly.

“Well it’s a pleasure to meet you doll!” it seemed that this hyperactive man was always grinning and painfully...affectionate.

“I’m Kiyoshi, but you can call me Kiyo!” he extended a slightly rough hand in greeting which I hesitantly took, admittedly a little frightened of the feverish male.

He chuckled lightly, sitting up and scratching the back of his head embarrassedly, “Well...You new to Nightshade?”

“What’s...Nightshade?”

Divine orbs widened a little “You mean to say you don’t know...?” he threaded his hands through his own

light cardinal silken hair thoughtfully.

“No...should I?” I too sat up, furrowing my eyebrows in confusion. I wasn’t quite sure what else to say,

somehow I knew I should know this by now, but had probably been neglected of knowledge.

“Oh kami-sama...Well I suppose you could call it a very well organized gang, sort of like the mafia.

We’re mostly a bunch of assassins, spies, and some of the best fighters around. And ofcourse, it’s all kept under control by Raven...

I’ll assume you know him, one fine piece of ass don’t you think?”

This man seemed to have talent in leaving me speechless, not to mention horribly bashful.

That wolfish grin appeared again, “You do think he’s hot!”

He laughed, patting me on the back “Believe me, everyone does...he’s fucking gorgeous.” I wasn’t too sure if it was possible before, but somehow my cheeks had managed to match the color of the walls that surrounded us.

“But before you die of embarrassment, we’d better change the subject. This..” he gestured to the ball

of fuzz that was nuzzling my leg so fondly. “Is Tao... ((A/N: In chinese it means peach or long life...oO;

Don’t ask why I called a kitten Tao...)) I think she likes you.” Kiyoshi reached out, ruffling my butter-yellow

hair affectionately.

“So...why are you here?”

“Oh well...I was /smiled/ at...” I rolled my eyes, thinking that the fact something so annoying large

could grow from something as simple as a smile.

The expression on his face told me that he stuck somewhere between confused and amused.

Then that grin seemed to yell that he had decided on the former.

“Because you were smiled at? Heh...And what are you going to be used for? Pleasure slave?”

The scarlet-haired man all-out laughed at the mortified expression that must have crossed my

face from shock of his last few words. Before I wasn’t sure If I’d like Kiyoshi or not, but now...

I hate him, at the moment anyway. A knock sounded from the doorway, and Kiyoshi stood, his lips still curled upwards slightly.

The door was gently pushed open and in front of which was yet another man I didn’t recognize.

Unruly orange hair fell just shy of the end of his ears, both of which were pierced three times.

His skin was tanned, fitting his deceivingly gentle blue eyes rather well. Sleek black oval-shaped shades

surrounded his beautiful orbs that reflected the hue of the ocean.

The man wore a silk midnight colored shirt, the first few buttons left undone and his legs were clothed in pants

of the same color and some sort of soft material. Around his wrist were two silver chains and about the

other hung a single slim silver bracelet.

“I was told to bring this young ma-...kid down to be...you know.”

Kiyoshi sighed, nodding reluctantly “Right...Go on Kai, I’ll see you later...I think.”

And with that I stood obediently, staring...if not gawking at the new comer. (( -joins Kai in gawking- ...

Don’t act like you don’t want to join in too. XD ))

The orange-haired man nodded, putting an arm around me and guiding me through the door.

“I’m Jenji, Kid...remember that name, it’s more important than you could even begin to guess.” he said softly,

turning and gazing at me as if he pitied me for some reason.

A/N: Yes...I realize this is short. –; I’m sorry times a-fucking- thousand! ; It’s not my fault...-whimper- My brain is going into melt down mode.
