My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my veins
There's a dog at your back step
He must come in from the rain
I fall 'cause I let go
The net below has right away
So my eyes seek reality
And my fingers seek my veins
The trash fire is warm
but nowhere safe from the storm
And I can't bare to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn
So as I write to you
of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Jade looked at Hsi Wu before she sighed…”please…just go” she pleaded again
“No!” The sky demon replied looking at her while taking hold of her arm, “I’m back now and I want you can’t you understand that?”
For a moment…she was almost…happy to hear his words but then…reality set in and as she looked at him in his human form she remembered the ways he had lied to her before…and Jade Chan glared at him then shoved him away from her and closed the door…as…the Chi Wizard…revoked…his invitation…
He wanted to cry and scream about how unfair the entire situation was but no…he wouldn’t let up until she was his and…until she knew…how…sorry he truly was. He glared at Chan defiantly before his image rippled away and then…he took…to the air before the man could play that flute again and hurt him.
“I’ll be back” he hissed angrily flying off but not before he stared at the window where Jade…was even now watching him…
…He let out a scream of utter anguish crying into the sun as he kept flying…it hurt so much worse then even that flute knowing that she didn’t want him.
‘Ohh she does want you young master’ the voice replied with a chuckle. ‘She just needs for you to sweep in and take her’ the voice continued and the sky demon’s eyes widened
“Already know that” Hsi Wu replied with a snarl, “and I don’t need you’re help now so get lost”
‘As you wish but I will be back and I expect you to uphold you’re end of our bargain’ the voice replied in a calm yet also icy manner before the sky demon felt a slight pressure leaving him and he blinked surprised and a little on edge.
Shaking his head off of the thoughts of his unknown ‘helper’ Hsi Wu sighed as he crouched on the water tower for a few moments tears (the first of many since he had been a child) falling and landing onto a portion of the cone shaped roof his claws firmly clutching hold of the water tower.
She didn’t understand…and it was all his fault…if he hadn’t have been so obsessed with getting his stupid tail back or in manipulating Jade the way he had then things would’ve been a little better and maybe…just maybe he could’ve told her that…the boy she’d befriended…was the same demon that his brother had freed.
Angrily he dried his tears as the day turned to night and he took to the skies once more searching for a place to stay before deciding to shifting his form to look human in order for him to find or rather ‘obtain’ a new home shrugging mentally upon seeing a place that was not only close to the college but also very cheap…once he made…the right ‘offer’.
After making himself at home in a small yet spacious ‘town house’ as humans called the things he sighed looking at his hands, he was a demon sorcerer yet here he was hiding from some mortals when he should have instead just cut them all down and taken what he wanted as he had done before!
But no he reprimanded himself with a sigh…doing so would cause him to wind up once more trapped in the void and he would not, could not go back there without seeing Jade and at least getting her to listen, to really listen to him instead of running from him to her precious relatives.
He snarled angrily and ththe the closest thing there was beside him at the wall before him watching as the book that had been laying there hit the wall then bounced off of it and landed on the floor causing him to sigh angrily.
He would not wait again, no he would take Jade as soon as he got his chance and then…then he would convince her to stay but first, he would prepare his new residence and make it not only more to his liking but he would also put up barriers to keep her from leaving here.
The sky demon clapped his hands together with glee more sure of himself and his present plan now as he thought of all the possibilities…Jade would be his and nothing nor anyone would stop them…from becoming one not just in body but also in mind, and soul and…heart as well…
My eyes seek reality
My fingers feel for flame
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touched the clean to the waste
“We will need a stronger chi spell in order to protect the shop” Jackie began before Uncle twacked him and he yelped.
“Getting to that” Uncle began while cleaning his glasses, “Uncle must prepare stronger chi spell and put an extne one on young Jade in order to keep demon from going anywhere near her” the chi wizard replied.
“Not only that but one of us will have to be with you at all times” Jackie replied while looking at his niece with some concern.
“I’m fine alright, the schmuck didn’t even get to do anything to me” Jade grumbled glaring at her uncle who simply smiled and patted her on the head in that patronizing way of hers
“Jade it is too danger-“
“Look he can’t come in right? And all those chi spells uncle has been teaching me along with all those martial arts moves you’ve been teaching me will do just fine”
Jackie sighed knowing that he wasn’t going to win this argument…not really in anyways since Jade would simply sneak out or do something else while ‘pretending’ to be doing what her uncle told her to do.
One of the things that simply drove Jackie crazy at times especially considering how many dangerous scrapes she had gotten herself into at times like this.
It was also one of the things that he loved about his niece, the fire in her eyes, the fierce determination she had when it came to anything that she put her mind to and even though Jackie was really worried he knew that there wasn’t anything that he could really do now.
Jade was technically an adult and although she lived with him, uncle and Tohru she was still in many ways a child especially when it came to what was and was not dangerous for her.
“I’m fine Jackie really I am. I mean it’s not like batboy was going to cart me off and make me become his queen or something.” Jade replied sarcastically
“AIYAAAA OT SOT SAY SUCH A THING!!!” Uncle practically screamed shooting his look of doom at the girl who merely rolled her eyes.
“We also should figure out a way to rebanish hi- oww!” Jackie replied yelping again when uncle smacked him again.
“Uncle already knows that! Uncle getting to that!” Uncle replied crossly glaring at Jackie for a few moments, “Jade must carry flute with her at all times”
“Look he’s gone now okay?” she replied before she stalked up to her room then closed the door trying not to blow up because of how controlling her two uncles seemed to be or letting herself fume over what had…happened…
…It wasn’t fair! She thought angrily as she lay down on her bed staring at the ceiling. They still treated her like a child when she could fight just as well as Jackie could and perform chi spells just like Uncle and she hated it…Jade hated every moment of it, hated…feeling ignored and alone.
Hsi Wu had changed all of that…in human form he had been her best friend only…only later on she realized that he had…just been using her and even now it still hurt knowing that he hadn’t really cared about her at all.
But that feeling she got whenever she thought of him would not go away and as she tried to get to sleep Jade sighed her heart torn between wanting to go talk to her friend, wanting to banish him…or…kiss him.
She sat up abruptly as she felt …herself getting wet, her eyes filled with horror and disgust for herself while she tried to make those feelings…go away again.
But no matter what…the feelings persisted…and she found herself feeling awkward again and hating…that she…felt this way…
The trash fire is warm
no where safe from the storm
I can't bare to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn
…Hsi Wu growled in frustration as he headed for his class, he was still determined to make Jade understand how much he wanted her only the problem was she wasn’t there and he was vastly growing impatient.
Snarling again he took a deep breath as if to cleanse his body and mind of the impatience that he was even now feeling…he could see it now, he would take her and show her every single hour of every single day why he wanted her. He would take her as his mate, would bestow her with immortality, and would allow her to see what none had seen before…
…His…human…side…the side he…had…gotten…from his…mother.
Unlike his brothers and sisters, Hsi’s mother had been human and though he could not remember much of her he did remember Tso Lan’s stories about her and all that she had done for him after he had been born, the songs she had read to him the way she had provided moral support for his siblings and their mothers even while they were shackled.
He could remember her eyes, and her face and the gentle way she had smiled at him…ways that…Jade had…also looked at him…when they had been younger.
Jade.
She was different then the women he had taken as pleasure slaves before and for the life of him Hsi Wu could not understand why, surely she did want him as much as he wanted her, even when she had gotten angry he could still smell her desire for him so he knew he was right.
He clenched a fist as he continued to wait inside the classroom occasionally drawing a few pictures of his siblings and…himself together without the harsh words and magics they threw at each other whenever any of them were in a rotten attitude.
That was the second thing he wished for, for his family to be…well his family. Yes he looked up to Tso Lan and to Bai Tsa because of how much they cared for him but he still wished that his other siblings Shendu included would treat him like an equal.
He paused drawing a picture of Jade her eyes filled with mischief a sly smile on her face as he slowly continued to draw her in a seductive pose laying there on a bed her eyes looking up…as if they were searching…for him and him alone.
A scent…her scent filled his nostrils and he blinked then got up from his seat and headed outside…to see her…only Jade seemed…on edge…and…as he watched…he saw her…fall…
…She sighed as she entered the college campus headinr her her class late this time and very tired from having stayed up almost all night…only to…slam into the door and fall her books falling with her while almost everyone laughed.
“Jade?” a voice asked and a tingle went up her spine that pleasant sensation flashing through her before her eyes narrowed and she glared at him. “You okay?”
“Now why would I be okay? Everybody’s laughing at me because I slammed into the stupid door!” she replied glaring at him angrily
‘Seymour’ blinked offering a hand only for her to push him away. “What the hell’s you’re problem? I was only trying to help!” he snarled angrily
“I don’t want you’re help or anything from you!” she shot back glaring at him.
“That’s too bad!” he replied slamming her against a locker, “you’re mine!” he hissed before she shoved him away then…slapped him hard across the face.
“I am not you’re property” she hissed before she stormed into the classroom ahead of the perplexed sky demon who hurried after her.
“Jade please…I…I’m sorry about what happened before” he said looking at her with an honest look only to see…her…staring at his drawings…
…As she stormed into the classroom Jade took her seat fuming at him…the nerve of that …that demon! She thought angrily before she realized…that this…wasn’t…her seat.
She was about to get out when something fell to the floor and she saw pictures…of her, provocative pictures of her sometimes witholothlothes, other times with clothes but all of them…were of her… of that she was certain.
A red haze filled her as she continued to stare at them the other people in the classroom beginning to laugh at her some of them making catcalls while she looked down at them…before she turned and wordlessly left the room.
“Jade!” he said running out after her, “please wait up,” he pleaded as he ran after her grabbing onto her arm as he finally caught up to her looking into her eyes, “I’m…sorry about earlier” he said … before he felt another slap…
…I’m sorry. Two simple words, the words that…caused her to finally break down and cry her left hand coming up to slap him before she shoved him away from her. “No…you’re not sorry…you don’t care about anyone but yourself because…because you can’t! You’re…just … a monster” she said as she sobbed before she took notice…of the hurt in his eyes. “A sick and depraved monster” she continued angry with him.
“If that’s the way you…want it” Hsi Wu snarled at her before he spat at her in contempt, “you’re just like the rest” he hissed before he stormed off determined not to…let anyone see him…cry like that…
So as I write to you, yeah
of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
So low, the sky is all I see
All I want from you is forgive me
So you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again
As he turned and stormed away from her, Jade’s eyes began to moisten with tears…why ohh why had she said that to him? Why ohh why had he come here looking for her?
She had been mad at him yes…but she hadn’t meant to hurt his feelings too…and now…as she watched him storm off the campus and away from her Jade felt…two warring instincts in her heart, one of them being…the urge to apologize…and the other being…to banish him like Jackie and Uncle had instructed her to do.
She hated being this torn and especially over the same demon who had hurt her so much before and it sucked feeling the way she felt but she did have a right to be angry right?
The answer…was…no she thought with a small sigh as she followed after him not noticing…the small trail of blood that was along the sidewalk as she kept walking forward looking for him…
…He sat there on the campus tears falling yet again one hand turning back to it’s original form as he looked at himself…feeling so lost and so…alone.
He traced a clawed hand along one of his veins before pulling back as if he were considering what to do the desire to…to punish himself flowing…through him as he focused on her words for the longest time…before he then slowly started cutting himself not caring for anything other then taking away the pain of feeling…so weak…as his claws ran along his skin slicing and cutting blood fell a strange mixture of gray and crimson he noticed not caring as he continued to cry and walk towards the apartment he had on the campus blood falling behind him leaving a small trail as he opened the door with a heavy heart then shut it behind him.
Blood fell onto the ground in his room in small droplets as he continued to try and harden his heart to the pain he was feeling because of everything that Jade had…said to him before she’d played that flute to get him away from her!
He’d already told the voice to leave him alone while he was even now sulking here in his room cutting more and more of himself his tears falling as he stared at the blood that was also falling onto the bed before him thankful that the door was in fact closed.
She didn’t want him…and couldn’t even stand to look at him and more importantly he…understood why now…he was a monster, a creature of evil and that…was all he could ever be.
You’re just a monster…a sick and depraved monster!
You lied to me and used me!
He cut himself again trying to hold back the tears and the pain he was even now feeling inside his heart.
You still do not listen to my warnings about mortals
She helped banished us after all! And here you are mooning over her like she is some prize worth obtaining! Hsi she’s a human!
His siblings were right…she is just like the others he thought bitterly as his claws cut through sinew and tissue his blood falling on everything it came in contact with mixing and…destroying it.
Much like he himself did Hsi Wu thought bitterly as he kept cutting in a desperate attempt to…take his mind off of the pain that was even now in…his heart.
He growled as a familiar pressure filled his head, ‘what do you want now?’ he asked tiredly
‘You shouldn’t do this young master’ the voice broke in earning a growl from Hsi Wu, 'I see you are not keeping to our bargain perhaps I was mistaken when I released you’ the voice continued.
‘Go away’ he replied darkly, ‘I’ll keep my bargain with you…now just leave me alone!’ he snapped through the link in their mind
‘Very well but do remember that I am trying to survive just as you are trying to do the same…besides young master…but if you wish to whine and complain about how pathetic you believe yourself to be then so be it’ the voice replied in a somewhat angry tone. 'I will not stop you but…I will remind you that you should not let some mere mortal come between you and getting what you desire…after all you are the Emperor of the Sky…not some creature to be commanded’
Then the pressure was gone and he lowered his head crying again and not really understanding why he was feeling so strangely over just one girl…
And I cry, to the alley way
Confess all to the rain
But I lie, lie straight to the mirror
One I've broken, to match my face
…The smell of blood filled her nostrils and Jade’s eyes widened in horror…had Jackie or Uncle gotten here first and tried to banish him without remembering that they had given her the flute? Had he killed anyone?
Her hand started to turn white as she pushed the door open then…her eyes narrowed tears in her eyes as she saw him laying there his claws slicing into his skin repeatedly as he continued to cry.
“So that’s it then? You announce that you love me and when you don’t like the answer you get you go and cut yourself up?” she began angrily moving to sit beside him only to see him look away from her and she took a cloth …then began drying the cuts cleaning them slowly. “I can’t believe you Hsi, using this as another attempt to get me to fall in love with you”
“Go…go..way” he rasped glaring at her through eyes filled with tears, “I don’t want you here” he replied not wanting…to let her…see him…like this
“Well tough I’m staying here so get it through that thick head of yours” she replied wiping the blood away before she noticed her name in his flesh, understanding flooding through her before she then smacked him upside the head. “What the hell is wrong with you?!!” screscreamed glaring at him demanding an answer for this.
“Go away” he said trying to turn from her stare but she would not let him.
“The hell I will! You go and cut into yourself and cry? For what? Because you’re lonely? Because I said ‘no’?” Jade demanded angrily as she glared at him while continuing to clean the now healing wound gently wipup tup the blood looking at his claws.
“You wouldn’t understand”
“I don’t care!” she unceunced glaring at him, “you shouldn’t go hurting yourself like this His, its not who you are!”
“You don’t even know a single thing about me other then what that bigoted chi wizard and Chan have told you!” he screamed angrily.
“Then tell me!” she replied angrily, “but don’t go doing something like this batboy!” she replied glaring at him.
“Why? Because you care?”
“Duh, it’s self destructive genius” she replied rolling her eyes, “and you’d be angry too if I had lied and used you”
“I had no choice”
“There is always a choice Hsi, and you should know that” Jade replied sadly looking up at him, “please…tell me what’s wrong and don’t say nothing because I know … what it’s like…to be alone”
He sighed and looked away, “you have no idea what it is like to be truly alone Jade, to be the outsider or the freak because…because you’re half human…and not full demon…like the others”
Jade’s eyes widened…she knew they had been cruel to each other while trying to get free…but she had…never imagined that he…felt this way. “Don’t you have anybody?”
“Only Tso Lan, and Bai Tsa…and…half the time I…feel like they just want to…control me”
Jade’s eyes widened a flash of de ja vu hitting her, “whoa…de ja vu”
“Huh?”
“I…well sometimes I feel the same way around Jackie or Uncle” Jade replied tenderly cleaning the rule. “Or…with my…parents”
“At least you know yours…I…never knew mine…” Hsi replied bitterly clenching a fist…before Jade slid her hand into it…and looked at him…
The trash fire is warm
No one's safe from the storm
And I can't bare to see
What I've let me be
So wicked and worn
…”You don’t have to feel that way you know” she replied looking up at him and Hsi blinked in surprise, “I…I well would…like to be…you’re friend” she admitted
“And you’re uncles will not mind?”
“Tch yeah they would mind” Jade replied with an unladylike snort before her eyes softened. “But they aren’t me…and I’m old enough…to do things my way…even if it drives Jackie up the wall”
“But…why would you…want to? I mean…I like you said lied and…and used you” he began before she gently ran a finger along his lips and she smirked.
“Because…we understand each other, though I’m still pretty pissed with you for doing that…but…if…if you want to…try again…then we can” she replied with a small hesitant smile
Hsi Wu’s red eyes gleamed with happiness and before she even knew what was going on he had pulled her to him and…was hugging her tight causing her to smile before she glared at him a little. “If that hand goes any lower I’ll use the flute” she mock warmed trying not to blush at the same time.
“Ohh…umm sorry” he replied not at all ashamed of that earning a giggle from her.
“Yeah right and Uncle and Tohru’s mom like each other” she replied laughing before she looked at him. “You okay?” she asked him
“I don’t…know” he told her looking away again before she gently cupped his face and looked into his eyes…
So as I write to you, yeah
of what is done and to do
Maybe you'll understand
And won't cry for this man
'cause low man is due
Please forgive me
Please forgive me
…As they looked into each other’s eyes she…smiled at him then hugged him, “I’ve missed you” she replied with a smirk. “Heh Jackie would have a fit if he heard me say that”
“That would be interesting but not…as interesting as this…” the sky demon replied before he dumped some cold water on her then jumped away from her and started to run.
“Ooooo you get back here batboy!” Jade replied laughing as she took off after him, “I’m gonna make you pay for that!”
“You and what army?” he shot back before she tackled him sending them both flying back onto the bed landing their with a muffled ‘oof’ with her on top of him.
“Getting comfy?” he asked her slyly.
Jade blushed then moved off of him but not before she viciously poked him in the side.
“Hungry? I could make something or go out and get us some Chinese” he replied a little disappointed that she hadn’t…taken advantage of her position on top like he would have done but he well…he could wait.
He’d waited for a long time now hadn’t he?
“Later” Jade replied taking his hands into her own, “right now…I want to…get to know you better and…I’d like you to get to know me…better”
He blinked…then smiled…she was his…all he had to do…was take her…but not yet…no now he would…let her see why…things had…changed for them both…by letting himself…trust her. “What do ya wanna know?” he replied glad to know that she wanted to get to know him better.
“Everything” Jade replied looking into his red eyes with her golden honey ones as she settled against him on the bed no longer starting to see him as anything…but a friend.
…Yes…Jackie was going to have a fit she thougs shs she nestled against him, his wings wrapping around her body while she looked up into his eyes…with trust. “And Hsi? I…forgive you” she added
So low the sky is all I see
All I want from you is forgive me
So, you bring this poor dog in from the rain
Though he just wants right back out again
My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my veins
