⌑ You closed your eyes so I could see ⌑ Kagaya Ubuyashiki

Act one : Chapter three : Enchanted

You grabbed his soft hand, squeezing it in comfort, "You didn't deserve this" He sighed

"No, do not apologise, just don't lie to me." You said softly, unable to stay mad at him, his comforting voice soothed you "Never forget that I would do anything for you Aya. But I am just sorry the enchantment our parents bestowed did not take the curse away from you entirely"

"I am glad it didn't, I can bear being unwell, and maybe losing my clear line of sight. But for that to happen to you constantly? I would never forgive myself." He pulled his weak hands from yours, tracing the rough scar that ran along your right cheek to your neck, still visible 8 years later, pulling you closer as he sat up

FLASHBACK

A harsh slap hit your face, and moments later you hit the ground, and slimy mud splashed all over your white kimono. The mud now ruined the purple floral pattern that was embroidered onto it. The rain poured down over you, making you shiver. But that was the least of your problems now

"How dare you disrespect me!" An all too familiar voice bellowed, followed by him spitting on you

Your voice came out as a little croak, "Father I am so-"

"Silence! You had one job, to take away and carry the curse for Kagaya Ubuyashiki. But instead, you got involved with his affairs, and your stupid body rejected the enchantment! You disappointment"

A hard pain slammed through your stomach as he brought his foot down upon it, making you cry out in pain,

"Hey Stop!" Came a panting voice, one that you did not want to hear

"Get away from here child. This is none of your concern" my father growled, digging his foot deeper into my stomach causing me to cry again

"Please! Please stop! you are killing her!"

"Shut your mouth Kagaya. You may be the next leader of the Corp but you are so weak. And so are you" He spat, glaring down at you

"Stop it, please! The enchantment worked to an extent, don't punish her for this!" Kagaya cried out, rushing over to you, trying to claw your father away

"Kagaya! Go aw-"

Your eyes widened as your father turned and punched the already weak boy, sending him flying into a nearby wall.

All of a sudden you felt light, and you felt the wisteria enchantment run through your veins as you shot up, eyes widened and in a fighting stance. Your father silently watched as the enchantment ran across your arms, making your veins glow purple and more visible

You ran towards Kagaya, standing in front of him as your father got closer and closer to him

"Get out of my way, Y/N. Kagaya is a liar, and he is weak" He growled, stomping closer and closer,

His pale grey eyes pierced your soul, yet you stood your ground, knowing if he got to Kagaya now he would kill him

"Never" You stepped forward, sheathing your nichirin blade, "Kagaya speaks the truth. The enchantment worked to an extent. I can take the pain off him at command for as long as he needs, but it wouldn't last forever. That is still a success father! Why won't you listen to us!"

"Show me. Show me the enchantment worked by proving you can heal any minor cuts and take the pain of the curse away!" He tested, pointing his blade at Kagaya. "Come here boy" he demanded

Shaking, Kagaya moved forward, making your stomach drop. Tears welled in your eyes and you couldn't move quick enough. As your father swung his sword to cut his face, you pushed him out of the way
