Ashura
Chapter Twenty: Ashura
To anyone familiar with Buddhism, Mahayana, Theravada, Esoteric and Tantric as well, they must all know of the Path of Shura, or, Ashura, the Path of Rage, and not holy, just simple and plain Rage, the state of Ashura in someone is when they become addicted to violence, not being able to think of any other thing than damaging anything or anyone, it is because Ashura, was a war god…disciple of Mara, the evil counterpart of Buddha…
(Two days after knowing of the death of Juliette, Hideki went to visit Fritz in Leipzig and to say goodbye to Juliette with him…the services and funeral had ended a while ago by now and they’d gone back to Juliette’s house…)
“So…do they know who did it??”
“What? Poison her?”
“Yeah…”
“They said they couldn’t find anyone with strong enough reasons as to kill her…though, I disagree…”
“You mean you know someone??”
“No…well, not personally…”
“Who?”
“You do remember she was a lawyer, don’t you?”
“Yeah…”
“There was this case a few years ago in Berlin, in which she defended a probable murderer and won the case, and the other lawyer, wanted the death penalty and when she won he got so, SO mad…for weeks she received death-menacing letters, phone-calls, all that kind of things…but we never thought it could get anywhere…and besides, they stopped just 3 years ago…so, naturally, we thought it was over…”
“He’s the most probable…”
“I know…but, frequently, the most obvious answer isn’t the one…that’s why I didn’t mention him…I think…there’s another possibility…”
“What?”
“That she wasn’t the intended victim…maybe you or me…”
“What? How?”
“Yeah…that they killed her in a way to get to us…that’s possible…”
“I should be the one thinking like that you know…”
“Yeah…”
“Oh well…let’s just hope it wasn’t like that…is there a flight to Dublin this late in the night??”
“I suppose…I’ll check…”
(Fritz checked in the website of the airport and there were still two, one at midnight exactly and the other half an hour later, so Hideki decided he’ll take the midnight one, he wanted to leave Berlin quickly because we was beginning to feel that it wasn’t safe to stay there…after arriving in Dublin again, he went back to his flat, he felt again the damn presence that he could recognize now…again in his bedroom…so he went in grumbling…)
“Are you trying to make this personal or what?”
(He told himself…)
“Hello~~, I came to look for you earlier but you weren’t here! Where did you go??”
“Why do I have to tell YOU?”
“Um…good question…”
“Why did you come here again?”
“Because there’s someone coming after you, you know?”
“What?”
(Kurt stood from the bed, in which he was propped upon again and walked towards the window, opening it and letting the cold night air inside…)
“I said…someone wants to kill you…are my words really that difficult to understand??”
“No, stupid…but why would someone want to kill me??”
“Maybe because you’re interfering with a plan of theirs…”
“You mean…does it have something to do with Kaito??”
“Ah Minagawa again…yes it has…indeed…”
“Ok, yeah, talk!”
(Kurt closed the window again and walked towards him, Hideki backed away from him until he’s against the wall, Kurt seems mad)
“They’re going to kill everyone near to you until they get YOU!”
“They?”
“The people who kidnapped Minagawa…”
(Kurt then realizes what he’s just said and covers his mouth and walks to the bed, sitting, Hideki then smiled…)
“So that was it? He’s kidnapped!! But why?? Why HIM!?”
“That…I don’t know…”
“Damn it…I’ve come this far just to get that much of information…all this has been useless so far…”
(Minutes passed, and then Kurt broke the silence with a commentary that seemed to have nothing to do whatsoever with the conversation…)
“It’s Ashura…”
“What?”
“The one targeting you…the one who’s going to kill everyone near you until he gets you…it’s Ashura…”
“You’re not speaking of who I think you are, are you?”
“No…I don’t think so…I’m referring to a vampire named Ashura…he was named after the war god Ashura…he loves violence…and once he’s been ordered to kill someone and to use ANY means, he won’t stop until he’s done it…”
“Ugh…”
(Kurt then said he had to leave and Hideki was left alone again in his flat, it was daylight, but he didn’t feel sleepy at all, he had a bad feeling of all this, he had to leave Dublin, not because he felt anything approaching, but because of what he’d been just told…)
(Later that night he opened the All-Seeing Eye once again and this time, he felt two things, one, was imminent danger towards himself, not necessarily deadly, but it was a threat, he couldn’t identify the source, but he did feel it was someone more powerful than himself, and even more than Eiji, and the other, was his classical search, Kaito’s life energy, this time, he couldn’t find it in Ireland anymore, so he extended the scope of the search to all Europe and found it, this time, it wasn’t that far, it was in London…having almost all his energy drained from him, he decided he’ll take some coffee, maybe that could calm him a little…after that, he found himself hungry for the first time in months, he wanted blood…)
(A week later he called Fritz, he was at the Dublin airport and didn’t have much time before the plane left…)
“Hallo?”
“Fritz it’s me, I just wanted to tell you that I’m leaving for London…”
“Ah…ok, so you’re moving of place again…”
“Yeah…the track’s taking me there this time…”
“Interesting…well then, take care…”
“Yeah…see ya…”
“Bye…”
(He hung up)
“So he’s still depressed because of his sister’s death…poor him…oh well…”
(He boarded the plain and left for a city in which he’d previously been with Kaito…)
(When he arrived into the airport, he felt an air of loneliness and at the same time, he felt watched, he decided to forget for the moment the loneliness and concentrate in the fact that he felt he was being followed, which he didn’t like…he was considering how much time he’ll stay there…and he decided to go to a hotel that was nearby and spend the night there, he’ll worry afterwards about how much time he’ll stay and if he’ll need to rent or something…that night he used the All-Seeing Eye once again and something caught his attention again, not only was there the presence that threatened him, but also, Kaito’s energy wasn’t anywhere exactly, it covered the entire city, he didn’t like it…and the daybreak was near…but London was cloudy always…he decided to unpack and then maybe go for a walk…)
(London was interesting during the day, but he was actually trying to find what was bothering him with its presence, threatening him, and trying to free himself from the uneasiness of feeling followed…it’d already been about 2 weeks since he’d arrived and the life energy of Kaito still felt the same, overwhelming all of London, without mentioning the damn threatening presence all around him too, even the fact of being followed didn’t bother him as being threatened did…he went back to the flat that he’d decided to rent and went to the kitchen, kitchens had always helped him to think, though he didn’t know why, something that normally happened to him when he over-thought was that he got migraine, but apparently since the transformation, he’d not had any at all…just when he didn’t expect it, again, he felt a presence in the house, this time behind him, he didn’t even turn, he already knew who was it, but he didn’t expect being embraced from behind…)
“Kurt…just DON’T…”
“Why not?? You seem wa~y too tense…what are you thinking about?”
“I said DON’T…why would they kidnap him??”
(Hideki stood from the stool, releasing himself from Kurt and walked to stand in the other side of the bar…)
“Who knows…there isn’t an answer, and there’ll never be one…so why don’t you stop trying so hard and just give up?”
“I DON’T WANT TO…and it’s not like I can anyway…”
“You can…”
“But I’ve gone too far…how can I just give up when I’m already being targeted, and to be killed??…”
“Well yeah but…when did you make yours the duty of finding him??”
“I can’t remember…”
“You don’t even know why…what is Minagawa to you?”
(That he couldn’t answer…Kurt was still standing near the stool where Hideki’d been sitting on, Hideki seemed tired, drained of his energy and sad…)
“You know what?”
“What?”
“You need some sleep…some good and long sleep…”
“Do I look that bad??”
“Yeah…”
“And who will watch that I don’t get killed in my sleep…for what you’ve told me I won’t ever be safe anywhere again…”
“Well yeah but…I could watch your sleep…”
“No way…”
“Oh c’mon! Right when you’re about to wake up I’ll leave! You won’t have to see me!”
“Ah no, I’m worried of what you could do to me while I sleep!!”
“Don’t be ridiculous and go to sleep already…”
“Whatever…”
(He didn’t even take a minute for consideration, he DO was tired so he went to his bedroom, leaving Kurt behind in the kitchen and changed himself into his pyjamas and got himself into bed, it wasn’t long before he fell asleep…)
