The Girl With The Dragon's Blood

It was finally the end of the week and the boys concert was tonight. Christi and I were getting ready in my room. Tonight we were both going in black. I was going in a black kimono style dress with golden dragons embroidered on it. The dress reached to my knees because I didn't want people to see the scars on my upper thighs. It had a high neck but there was a year drop shaped opening under my throat that gave a nice view of my cleavage. I had y hair up in an elaborate bun with black tasseled chopsticks pushed in it for decoration I lined my eyes artfully in black and put on a nude lipstick that had a golden tint to it that made my lips sparkle in the light. The dress was short sleeved and I had stolen Ashley's war paint to put elaborate spiral designs on my arms legs and one side of my face. When I was done I looked like an ethereal being. Which I guess I sort if was. Christi came out of my bathroom in her chosen outfit for the night. She had on a black tutu over ripped black leggings and a black tube top. Attached to the back of the top were black fairy wings. They were so well done that they looked real and if you didn't look to close at the back of her top then it looke as though they protruded from her back right between her boulder blades. She had spiked her hair out and put glitter in it along with over the rest of her body. He was wearing thick black glitter eyeliner and her lips were a sparkling white. She had taken the liberty of using the last of Ashley's war paint to make climbing vine designs on her body and face. I thought about how the boys would react to our outfits and then my mind slipped over to Cc. The poor guy. He had been so awkward around Christi ever since I told him about her sexual orientation a few days ago.

It was late and Christi had fallen asleep on Cc again. When I went to take her up to bed Cc said he'd carry her and I allowed him to with a sigh and a frown. After I got her settled in I pulled Cc out into the hall and closed Christi's door. "Cc we need to talk. It's about Christi." I said seriously looking him in the eye. He gulped and then started babbling. "Look I know she's your little sister and I know your really protective of her and I don't want to hurt her I just really like her and I would never hurt her. So please don't hurt me." He said as I raised my hand to stop his rambling. Sighing I shook my head. " look doll it's not Christi I'm worried about. Trust me. I know she can take care if herself. What I'm worried about is you. Because if you keep going like this it'll only end in pain for you doll." I told him sweetly. He scrunched up his face in confusion and I sighed. "Look I really didn't want to be the one to tell you this. And I honestly thought you would have caught on by now. But seeing as Christi thinks you already know and your just heading on a downward spiral with this whole liking her mess I have to be the one to break it to you. Cc Christi is a lesbian. He likes girls. A lot." I told him slowly. His eyes widened and he gasped. "But she always? How could?What? I don't understand. She is always cuddling me and sittin on my lap and acting like she likes me." He finally got out. I sighed. "Look doll she does those things because your funny and like a brother to her. As for the snuggling well your pretty damn snugly. I mean seriously. We're it not for the self control I have I would be snuggling with you half the time. As it is I catch myself trying to anyways. You just give off that 'come hug me and I will be the best guy friend slash snuggle buddy you've ever met' kind of aura." I told him. A blush crept into his cheeks and he nodded slowly. I pulled him into a hug and then we both said goodnight.
Flashback over//
But that was 3 days ago. After I told him he started acting really weird around Christi and was very shy about letting her snuggle him again. Things were starting to go back to normal though. I was pulled out of my thoughts by someone banging on my door. I rolled my eyes and walked over. When I opened the door Ashley was standing there with and angry look on his face. "What can I do for you doll face?" I asked with a smirk. He took a second to let his eyes roam down my body and I saw lust fill his eyes. When his gaze lingered for to long on my chest I tapped his chin and made him look up. "My gorgeous golden eyes are up here doll. And before you ask no I will not be apart of your pity porn tonight. Now what do you want?" I asked. Finally he found his voice. "Where the hell is my war paint?" He asked getting angry again. I smirked. "Your looking at it babe." I told him with a wink. He opened his mouth to say something and I held up my hand stopping him before motioning him inside. I closed the door behind him and then walked into my bathroom. He walked over to my dressing table and picked up the empty container. "What the hell Tora?! I need this stuff!" He practically yelled. Jeez it's a good thing my walls are soundproofed. I found what I was looking for under my sink and walked back into the room. "Jeez Purdy. Would ya quit your bitching and moaning already." I said before tossing him a new container of the stuff. He looked at me strangely. "If you had your own then why the hell did you take mine?" He asked. I rolled my eyes. "To make you ask dumb questions." I said sarcastically. "Just chill I like your brand better plus your reaction was pretty damn funny." I said. He rolled his eyes and walked out of my room with a huff. I swear that boy is so easy to rile up. I smirked to myself before putting on my black wedges and then Christi and I walked downstairs. As soon as we reached where everyone else was. Ashley was jut going to do his paint on the bus because we had to be at the venue soon. He shot me and evil glare and I smiled sweetly back. Christi jumped onto Cc's back and made him piggy back her to the bus. Poor kid. It seemed he was doomed to be her best guy friend forever. Lol eternal friendzone. We all piled onto the bus and got comfy. Ashley went to do his makeup and Jake and Andy were sitting on a couch. Cc was sitting on a chair with Christi in his lap. Her wings kept hitting him in the face. Poor kid. Jinxx was in the back on the phone with Sammi probably whispering sweet nothing's that would make anyone else want to gag. I st down in between Andy and Jake but that soon turned into me laying across them with my head in Andy's lap and my legs across Jakes. I turned my head to talk to Christi when I heard a gasp and was unceremoniously rolled off the couch. I was about to start yelling at Andy when I saw him grabbing his crotch in pain. One of my chopsticks had stabbed him. As I realize this I began laughing as did everyone else. Ashley came out and looked at us all confused. Andy finally recovered and then narrowed his eyes at me. "Oh you think it's funny do you. Just wait. Batman shall get his revenge." He said laughing evily as he walked towards me. I stood up and tarted backing away. He suddenly darted foreword and grabbed me around the waist and threw me over his shoulder "Andy what are you doing? Put me down!" I shrieked with a giggle. He walked back to his room and then opened a drawer muttering about batman and revenge and female jokers. He finally pulled something out of the drawer and the walked to a random pole in the corner of the room. He set me down and before I could ask what was happening I was handcuffed to the pole. "Andy what the hell? Let me go?" I pleaded wondering why his plan could possibly be. My question was soon answered when he called Ashley ino the room. I narrowed my eyes at him. "Andrew Dennis Beirsack don't you dare do what I think your about to do." I warned quietly. But he just smirked and handed Ashley the key. "That's what you get for injuring the great and powerful Batman." He said. "Andy come on don't you think this is a bit much?" I whined playfully but he just left the room. I glared at Ashley. "Touch me and die Purdy boy." I told him. He just laughed. "I you kill me then you'll never get out of here." He said teasingly as he set the key on the bed. He slowly walked foreword with and evil flint in his eye and I stared him down. And then out of nowhere he was tickling me. He managed to find the one spot that was agonizingly ticklish and he showed no mercy. Soon I was gasping for air and begging him to stop. He was laughing saying never but then he cut off and looked down with wide eyes. I frowned and followed his gaze. Shit. My dress had ridden up to show my upper thighs and all o the scars adorning them. I stood and went to pull my dress down but he stopped me. "Why the hell would you do this to yourself?" He almost whispered. I closed my eyes unable to look at him. "Just let it be Ash. It's not something you would understand." I said quietly. I heard him stand up and he grabbed my face. "Look at me Tora. Look at me. Open your eyes and look at my face." He said. I finally opened my eyes and met his warm chocolate brown gaze. His eyes were full of hurt. "You don't have to do this to yourself. Me and the guys are here for you no matter what. There is no reason for you to do this." He said softly. I narrowed my eyes at him. I realized that this boy was slowly working his way under my armor. I couldn't let that happen. I pulled together my ice bitch shell and stared at him blankly. I reached down and pulled my dress back down to my knees before pulling his hand away from my face. All the time not showing any emotion. "Ashley let me go. Go get the key and let me go." I told him coldly. He tried to say something but I stopped him. "No Ashley. If you know what's good for you then you will get the key let me go and then forget this ever happened. If you mention this to anyone I will personally ruin you." I said. He finally nodded and then let me go. I looked in the mirror to make sure everything was how it should be and then walked back out. I didn't look back at Ashley even though I could feel his sad gaze on my back. We had just reached the venue and I walked past everyone else and calmly got off the bus. Everyone else piled out after me and then we walked inside. Soon the boys had to leave for the meet and greet and Christi went with them. I jut sat backstage in a daze. After what seemed like minutes but was probably closer to and hour they all came back to find me standing in te same position I was in when I left. I was standing staring out a window at the darkening sky. Finally they tried to ask me what was wrong and I just shook my head and gave them a fake smile. I was still covered in ice and felt nothing. Then the boys had to go onstage for the show. I didn't even register them playing I only heard the pounding I my head and the beat of my heart. This happened when I stayed in the ice stage for longer than normal. I was stuck in my own mind and there was little anyone could so about it. I registered the boys coming off stage but I still had not moved. They were glancing at me worriedly but I didn't care. I didn't feel anything. And then something broke through my revery. The sound of crying. Everything came whooshing in and I heard and saw everything I had been blocking out. I slowly turned around and saw Christi. She was sitting on the ground crying while Cc wrapped his arms around her and someone was standing over them. Before I even knew what I was doing I was in front of the stranger and had him by the throat. I growled dangerously and his eyes widened. "What the hell did you do to my sister?" I asked coldly. Christi was calling for me to let him go and I finally did. He gasped in air and then looked at me. I realized in the back of my mind that he was a police officer due to the uniform. "Your Tora Hime?" He asked cautiously and I nodded back with narrowed eyes. I only wanted to know who he was and what he ha done to make Christi cry. By now we had gathered a bit of a crowd. The whole band and all of the security and workers were standing in a loose circle around us. The officer swallowed and then cleared his throat. I saw his eyes watering as he got ready to speak. "I'm sorry to have to be the one to tell you this but two hours ago we got a call from you house reporting that someone broke in. When we arrived at the scene there was damage done to every room except for one. The door was locked by key and we had to break the door down for further investigation. It seemed that it was your room and it had remained untouched. But I regret to inform you that as we arrived on the scene your mother was found in her room. Miss Hime it appears she tried to attack the intruder but was shot in the head. I'm sorry Miss Hime but she died immediately." He said. He had started crying but I just stood there in shock. And then something broke and I was screaming. I tried to lunge for the officer but was held back by a pair of strong arms. My guess was that it was one of the security. "Let me go! He's lying! Let me go!" I screamed repeatedly. I didn't even notice that my voice was half roar half yell I just knew that the officer had to be lying and for that he would pay. Suddenly Ashley stepped in front of me. Tears were falling down his face and he started speaking. "I'm so sorry Tora. I know this hurts but I dot know any other way!" He said. I didn't understand what he meant until he pulled his arm back. He kept saying he was sorry and then he hit me and I knew nothing.
