Notes: OK, this is the revsion version of "Her Reality". First, I would like to give very much thanks to Mimori Kyiru. She is the one that helped me revised this story. So, thak you Mimori. As for the rest of you people, read the story with your hearts content. Read and enjoy!


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Her Reality

It was two in the afternoon, and Mimori was heading to her room from her job. Mimori is a young eighteen-year-old raven-haired female. She usually wears a long-white sweater that sticks to her body showing her curves while wearing black pants with black shoes. Her job was to be someone who finds cures to ongoing diseases, which was she happy to do, since it involved helping people from the Lost Ground. As she got close to her room, she saw someone very familiar. She couldn't see who it was at first from a distance; but as she kept walking closer she saw that it was man with emerald colored hair. As she got even closer to the tall, odd haired man, she saw that he was standing by her room. She had already realized who it was.

"Ryuhou." said the raven-haired female as she looked at him with a sincere smile. She clutched her papers and binders in her arms.

Ryuhou is the young seventeen-year-old with an alter. He wears usually what other alter users would wear. A long jacket that is blue by his arms and a white and blue in the middle, while wearing blue pants with black boot-like shoes. He is also has an alter user, which a nature-made for those who are born in the Lost Ground. Ryuhou's alter is name Zetsuei, which made from his perished dog's flesh. Ryuhou uses his Zetsuei when ever he is in battle against other alter users.

Even though Mimori was happy to see him, she had one question on her mind. Why was here? Was he back to give her another lecture on going back to the Mainland? If he was just here just to give her the same lecture, she knew that this would cause the pain in her heart again. She knew that she would break on the inside once more.

"Ms. Kiryu." he said, as he stood up from leaning against the wall. He looked over at her and then back at the ground. "I see that I still have to come every single day to ask you to go back to the Mainland…" he said in a monotone voice as he still looked down, away from her.

"How many times do I have to hear you say that?" she asked as she looked up to him with anger. All she wanted…was to be with him.

"I will keep coming to see you and ask this question until you go back-" he said his reply, but was interrupted by Mimori.

"Until I go back right?" she finished as she still looked up to him with the anger inside getting the better of her.

"Yes." he said coolly. He looked up to her, his glare almost becoming hurtful.

"Well, I'm not going back." she said as her anger kept rising its level. "And there is nothing that you could about it."

"Go back where you belong!" he yelled at her as he lost his anger.

"No, I won't!" she yelled at him back, stopping her foot.

"Damn it!" he yelled as he grabbed her right arm. "Why do you have to be so stubborn huh?" he asked as he pulled her closer to him making their faces by just two inches away from each other. He sighed. "Mimori…"

Mimori gasped. She was shocked not for just one, but two reasons. One was that Ryuhou said her name like he did when they were little. Soft and without anger, just like when he was a young, innocent boy. Second, now she was close to his face and was emotionless by his action.

"Why did you come back? Tell me, Mimori? He asked with his anger already decreasing. "And it better not be…just to see me…" he continued to say as he looked at her face.

Mimori couldn't say anything because she was still in thought of his action and what should she do or say to him.

"Answer me please." he asked her again as he looked at her with his ruby-eyes meeting her brunette orbs. "I need to know." he said again as he looked at her with almost his real interior feelings.

Time passed between them as no exchange or words came out of their mouths. Mimori was still caught in her thoughts and still fighting her answer. Ryuhou was just there waiting for her to give him the answer to his question. He could have waited forever for her to answer, which is why he wasn't impatient with her.

"It's because…" she finally said as she broke the silence between them. “I want to be with you and I wanted to see you…"

After Ryuhou heard her say that, which he just told her early in their conversation that he didn't want that as a reason, he felt his anger rise up again. He just couldn't understand why she always wanted to be with him.

"Is that the reason why you came here?" he yelled at her as he let go of her and started walking pass her. "Then you only came here to get yourself killed." he said as he stopped releasing her from his grasp. Nothing came from him as he had started walking away from her.

"Ryuhou” Mimori thought as she saw him getting away from her by the second. "Your words at times get to me so much and it ends affecting my heart in many ways…" she thought again as she felt her heart weighed very heavy.

She went inside her room closing her door. She started taking off her coat and went to make some coffee to stay up since it was late and she had other documents to work on for the next day.

Two minutes had passed and Mimori was on her way to the living room area of her apartment. She continued walking toward to the desk that had papers that were needed to be revised. She sat down and grabbed some of papers and started looking at it for any mistakes or such.

"Why is it that we always end up crossing each other with a cold reason? Why can't we just talk like before…? I don't understand…" she thought as subconsciously put the papers down on top of her desk.
"I try to find ways to explain to you that I'm here to help those in need of help here in the Lost Ground. But you never understand. Neither do you understand my feelings…" she spoke aloud as she started to look up at the white-color ceiling.

She felt again the pain of darkness fill her empty heart. She knew that she had to be strong for him and herself. For the one she promised to see again, yet he makes that promise seem in vain now. But at times she feels that she needs to be being strong for him and herself. She feels that at times when he says go back, it fills her heart with so much pain that she could end up falling down to her knees and cry. She would weep in front of him with no embarrassment. She just wanted something from him, an acknowledge of his love for her. That's all she could ever ask for.

A few minutes passed and Mimori realized that she had been wondering through her mind for a long time. Still, she felt like something was weighting on her heart. She felt like doing something about these pent-up feelings of hers. She felt like making some of the feelings come out of her. She looked around the room and looked for something that she could put her pent up feelings on. As she looked around, she found a blank sheet of paper and a black pen that lay on her desk.

As she grabbed the blank paper and the pen she found herself wondering how or what way would she write her feelings. As few minutes passed again, she had found the way to write her feelings on the paper. As she put the pen on top of the paper she had started writing the words that would maybe symbolized her feelings.

My Reality

I, at times, feel like I'm in a dark room on these days

Where he comes and takes over me with his cold exterior

With his calm face that out of it comes his bright ruby eyes

That stares at me with almost of hate, yet, stare of anxiety

When he stares at me I stare him back with my smile

With my face that tells him that I need him

I want to be with him

Yet…

He won't listen

nor understand me

He dares to defy me with his harshest words that come from his mouth

He dares to hurt me

Yet…

He wants to say the opposite it

From his interior-self

He wants to be to by me

But he won't allow it

Why does he want me to be away from him?

Is it because…

I'm in the past?

I'm someone he sees as something to push away?

Something that he can play around with?

As in making his harsh words be his ultimate weapon,

I want to tell him that no matter what he says or does…

He will never change my mind nor…

My feelings that occupy in my heart

The one special thing that I bare for him

Yet he wants to destroy it

This special feelings that I have for him

That is waiting for him to respond back

But…

With the right answer

The right answer that he wants to say

Without his iceberg around him

Without his heart still frozen

But warm

Without any signs of hate or anxiety within him

I want him to tell me …

His answer

And the opening of my reality

As she finished her last sentence, she put the pen down on her desk as she still looked at her work. She felt still that her heart was under a lot of weight. She then knew that one piece of paper won't free her pent-up feelings. Not one thing can free her except the one person she loves. The one that gives her many heart pains. The one she calls:

"Ryuhou…"

Her Reality Chapter Two...

Chatpter Two:
Having thoughts of leaving you....​

After an undeserved encounter that the raven-haired female had with her beloved, she had put her feelings on a piece of paper that might have been her savor. But, sadly it didn’t do any good for her. It only brought more pain to her heart by remembering her Ryuhou, the one she saw as the kind, and yet the shy type.

As she put the paper in her on top of her desk, she started to edit the documents that had labels of “needed to be re-checked for further use”.

“Further use huh?” the raven-female read the label out loud. “Maybe it has to do with one of those files from the beginners’ class…the ones who are bad at checking their work well” she thought as she continued to look at the documents.

It was one in the morning and already the Kyrui heiress had finished her editorial job. After that she went to her bedroom and changed her Holy uniform to her light-silver nightgown. Then she went to bed into trying to fall asleep with her heart still in pain.

“Maybe tomorrow will be another day with out him…” she thought as she looked up to the ceiling of her bedroom. “Then, again…I could be wrong…” with that still wandering in her mind she couldn’t sleep through the night. But she attempted to fall asleep by force, but still she couldn’t.

As the night passed on by the minute, she kept turning and turning to try to fall asleep. But it was pointless. She couldn’t fall asleep.

“Why can’t I fall asleep?” she asked herself in her mind. “I have to get these thoughts away from my mind…or otherwise I won’t be able to sleep tonight…” she said it out loud with her right hand on top of her forehead.

As time kept passing by for the Kiryu heiress, she gave up trying to fall asleep and got up from her bed and walked to the bathroom.

As she got out of the bathroom she headed to her drawer and started to change her attire. As she kept changing her clothing, she had thoughts of what was she doing.

“Why am I not sleepy anymore?" Raven-haired female asked in her mind as she finished changing her clothes.

She had put on tan colored sweater, since it was a little chilly, with a black skirt that reached only to her knees with tan-colored flip-flops.(sorry, but I thought a black skirt would have gone better than pants)

“Why am I changing?” she asked again as was putting her hair in a mid-pony tail. “What am I going to do when I get outside? I’m not planning to see anyone…maybe I’ll just go for a walk around the building…maybe I’ll get tired when I come back”, she thought as she walked outside her bedroom.

She went to the living room and grabbed her keys from the table and headed to the exit door of her room.

As she opened the door, she walked out looking back at her dorm room, and then closed the door.

She then started walking to see if her theory of getting tired would work.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*​

Ryuhou had already gotten to his dorm-room and had changed his uniform-attire to his normal clothes. He was wearing an almost tight black shirt that went down to his waist, while wearing blue jeans with black flip-flops.

He was right now in the kitchen making some coffee while reading some documents that he had gotten from his former boss.

“This is something that would definitely cause problems for Holy” he said out loud while he looked at the documents.

The document had information on that Holy was being accused for being responsible for an accident caused by an alter user. The document kept saying that Holy is indeed an organization with tremendous powers that those who live closed to the organization would be killed. In other words, Holy should be feared by everyone.

“How preposterous could this people get?” he asked internally. “Maybe they don’t need us to protect them from those who really would kill them…those delinquents” he said out loud as he put the documents down on a silver table and grabbed his coffee.

“Mimori…” that named had come to Ryuhou’s mind as he started taking sips of his coffee. “I can’t believe that you’re here…how much did I miss you when you left me…but now you’re back and I’m paying you for coming back with my cold attitude. How stupid of me…I’m really glad though that you have came to see me. But…it would endanger your life …and If I were to lose you....I don’t what I would with my life knowing that you’re gone”, he thought again as he kept taking sips of his coffee.

After that thought, the emerald-haired man went to the living room to sit down on one of the dark-green couches. As he sat down he started reading what few documents he had left.

But as he kept reading, the raven-haired female wouldn’t leave his mind. She was still there haunting him. Entering his mind just to take over him with her smile, her kindness, and even forgiveness for his rude comments that he always tells her whenever he saw her.

“Argh…this can’t be…” he said out loud with anger rising. “Why can’t you leave me alone? Why don’t you just go back to the Mainland?” he asked while holding his head with his both hands. “That way I can be free…” he continued.

Then realization hit him. But it hit him hard enough to even know that what he said now wasn’t what he meant. He knew that a part of him was glad to see her…but he also knew that his pride of being full of himself got the better of him.

He knew that if he continued to show rudeness towards the Kyrui heiress he would accomplish to send her back to her home, where it’s safe for her. But was that also what he wanted? If she were finally to be convinced that he didn’t need her, she would leave him and forget him for good.

“Yes…what would I do if you left…?” he asked himself internally. “Would I be happy? Would I be relief that you are finally gone…away from me? Now that I would know that you are back in a safer place…would I be able to go on in life? Or is it your presence what keeps me going strong in my missions?” he thought again as he looked down at brown carpet floor.

Time also passed for the still-in-thought Ryuhou, but that fast enough to make to be morning already.

Ryuhou just sat there still lost in his thoughts…not knowing what to do with him self anymore. If he was doing he right thing at being the coldest person in the world to Mimori, or should he change himself since he is already having second thoughts.

“I don’t know what to do anymore…” he said out loud to himself.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*​

Meanwhile, the Kyrui heiress still wandered through the corridors of Holy trying to get her thoughts out of her mind.

“I thought if I kept walking for at least a few minutes…it would make these thoughts that pain me out of my mind” the Kiryu heiress thought to herself as she kept walking. “Then again the thoughts of him will never disappear…” she thought again as she continued to walk.

Then as she kept walking, she made a turn to a corner that led to more dorms that had doors that were still closed. She continued to walk and walk through the long and narrow hallway while being reflected by the moonlight from the large windows as she passed by.

Then she looked up the dorms names to see if she was in her hallway or not, since she kept wandering while being lost in her own thoughts. As she kept looking at the names that each dorm room had she happens to stop at one.

The one she stopped had the name of the person who wouldn’t let her go to sleep. The one who believed that safe came before their friendship. The one that has been her childhood friend and now isn’t her friend anymore. Which everyone in Holy called him Master of Zetsuei or by his companions, Ryuhou Tairen.

She was in front of the door. She stood there for a long time looking at his name plate that was put in the middle of the door. As she kept looking at it, she moved one of her hands towards the plate. As she had her hand on the plate, she moved her hands smoothly over the letters of her childhood friend’s name.

While she let her fingers run over the letters of her beloved, she had memories of her past. She remembers, in her childhood, of coming to visit Ryuhou because she had received an invitation from his mother to come visit him. Remembering how much she would come visit him ever since she meets him at a party. Where he showed her that he was an alter user, and she wasn’t afraid of him. And how he said to her that not to get near him or otherwise he would hurt her.

Another few seconds past for her while she kept remembering other events that she saw him in. Having events of good or bad ones come to her mind again. Then as she finished collecting her memories, she came up to one conclusion.

“I see now…” she thought with a chuckle coming out of her mouth. “I guess I need to settle things with you Ryuhou…once and for all” she thought as she knocked on the door of Ryuhou.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*​

Ryuhou still lost in his thoughts was surprised to hear a knock from outside his door.

“I wander who that could be at this time…” he asked out loud as he got up from his sitting spot and started walking over to the exit door of his dorm-room.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*​

Mimori, still outside of the emerald-haired mans dorm room, was waiting to see if Ryuhou had heard her knocking on his door on not. But she heard footsteps, which meant that he did hear her and was coming to open the door.

Mimori’s heart started to race, but she knew better that what she about to do wasn’t for a heart to get too excited about.

“Here he comes” she thought to her self as she saw the door open already.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*​

As Ryuhou opened the door, he was shocked to see who was in front of his door waiting for him to open it.

Mimori then looked up with same usual face the she always gave Ryuhou, her contentment to see him.

“Mimori…what are you doing here…it‘s late?” he finally asked as he looked at her with his almost half cold face.

Mimori was having a hard time to answer him due to the fact he looked kind of mad or something. But she knew that she needed to talk to him in order to get this conflict between him and her over with once and for all.

“Ryuhou…we need to talk” Mimori finally said with her face still calm.

Ryuhou got surprised from what Mimori had said to him and finally let her in to his dorm room.

To be continued….

Xin Nian Dao!
I personally thought this was very good. Your descriptions are pretty well done, and in a way that you can visualize it. There's only one problem withthe description. You put it all in one paragraph to let readers chomp it down and forget it. Can I give an example?

Mary walked down the red brick road. She was wearing a purple tank top and red jacket, and a white skirt with a black belt. She wore black knee high socks and hot pink boots. Her black hair had been dyed a slight blue in areas.

You can see it alright, but it's better to space it out. You can add even more description in without erasing any. Here's what I mean:

Mary walked down the scarlet red brick road. Even though it was nearly 90 degrees in the summer, she still wore a burnt red jacket, and under it a violet tank top. The refreshing breeze made it seem slightly cooler, though, and it danced as it gently blew Mary's raven black hair around. Her sky blue highlights shone in the bright, smiling sunlight.

You see what I mean?

"Ryuhou." said the raven-haired female as she looked at him with a sincere smile. She clutched her papers and binders in her arms.

After Ryuhou, you ought to put a comma instead. You put a period frequently in other parts of speech, so change them all to commas.

“What am I doing? Raven-haired female asked in her mind as she finished changing her clothes.

That just sounds so... Odd.

“Why am I changing?” she asked again as was putting her hair in a mid-pony tail. “What am I going to do when I get outside? I’m not planning to see anyone…maybe I’ll just go for a walk around the building…maybe I’ll get tired when I come back” she thought as she walked outside her bedroom.

We need a comma after back. As with the period and comma fiasco, you forgot to put a comma frequently as well.

Overall, pretty good. Just fix those little tidbits, and you'll be all set for now. :D
