::Chapter Seven:: Even the truth hurts sometimes.::




Legato's golden eyes lifted to meet Akashia's, "Hello…Little sister." His voice was cold, and uncaring. His eyes scanned the room, "I see you've met another fool to give yourself to."

Vash was beginning to wake when he heard Akashia speaking to someone, "Akashia?"

Akashia's eyes widened, "He's awake!"

Vash slipped some pants on and a shirt and made his way to the door, "Vash, it's fine, love, just go back to sleep!"

"I'm already dresse-"

~Vash the Stampede.~ A cold voice spoke in his mind.

"Who-"

"Legato Bluesummers…I see you and my sister are quite…Happy," He spit the word out like it were poison, "Together."

"Legato Bluesummers…You! You're Akashia's…brother?" Vash looked down at Akashia with confused eyes.

"Vash, I can explain everything." Akashia spoke nervously.

"Yes, dear sister…Do explain." Legato grinned evilly, his golden eyes becoming even more deadly looking than before.

Vash turned to her angrily, "Yeah, I'd like to hear about it."

~Her whole life has been a lie, Vash~ He recognized the voice now, Legato.

"Stay out of his mind, Legato…He has nothing to do with you." She hissed.

"Oh, but I believe he does, he's coming to destroy my master…but I'll destroy him first…They say the way to kill a weak man is through the heart…And telling him you're will do just that…sister."

Akashia held Vash's hand, only for him to pull it away violently, "Don't. Touch. Me" He seethed.

"Vash."

"Just tell the story."

She sighed, there was no fighting it, she knew this day would come, if only, under different circumstances.

"When I was born, I was born to the name, Ashikira Sardonia Bluesummers. My parents, Ammon Bluesummers, and Christina Bluesummers, where archeologists, I had an older brother, named Legato, he was two years older than me, and seemed to not like me very much,"

"Nothing has changed." Legato sneered.

"When I was eight, I walked into the house, Mom was fixing dinner, and my father was in his study, reading about they're latest find…Legato had just discovered his powers of Telekinesis. He had never cared for my parents, nor me, it seemed he cared for no one but himself…He used those powers to his advantage…That was the first time, that I had spilt blood with my own hands…and it was my parents blood on my hands…He had controlled me, into picking up a knife…and…and…" She broke off sobbing, Vash's eyes wide from shock, he held her close, "It's alright Akashia, I don't need to know anymore…Just-"

"No…Let me finish." She said wiping her eyes, "Because this will be the only time I tell you…Later I was found guilty of the murder and was sentenced to death, since no one in the town even favored children…They decided to hang me…The night before my execution, I found a way out of my cell and escaped, I went to the farthest town I could find, and stood before the judge, a very risky thing to do, and changed my last name…To Akashia Morwen…And I have been so ever since."

"My lord." Vash muttered, "I-I don't know what to say."

"I know what you should do…" Legato grinned, "Tell the authorities that you have the crazed killer Ashikira Bluesummers, and get rid of her now, you don't know when she will turn on you, Mr. Stampede."" His grin turned into a sneer as he stood from his seat.

"I must be leaving now, my master is awaiting me."
