Introductions (magic clans):

Fujimiya Ran is part of a rare blood of Mages, the Crimson. Crimsons are known as the most powerful Mages of the Black Occult. Though they are strictly on good, it does not mean they do not study the ways of the Occult. Also know for their ability of teleportation and various other psychic talents, they do have the ability to perform rituals that other Mages would not attempt. They will however have the ritual go awry if the Crimson's puratonikkurabu, or spiritual love like soul mate, is not there to provide the balance of power. Each Crimson has a natural element of water, fire, earth and air. However it is not very common for a Crimson but some bloodlines have all their descendants to have two, Ran-san has water and air.

Tsukiyono Omi is part of the clan of Jacks, or Jack-of-all-Trades. Jacks are known to have little magic but enough to bring a fatally wounded man back to full health. They are also known to be able to adapt to anything within moments. The only field they are best in magic is healing. Omi-san does not know of his mage heritage but it will soon be revealed like the others.

Hidaka Ken, like Omi, does not know of who he truly is. He is part of the Fighter clan. Like the name implies, they are one of the best fighters only rivaled by the Crimson, who rival every clan in their expertise. Their magic lies mainly to enhance power. They are loyal to a fault but unlike the Crimsons, they are not suicidal. If not for weaker magic, they could rival the Crimsons everything.

Kudou Yohji is possibly the second most powerful of the quartet. He is one of the Emeralds. Emeralds and Crimsons are closely talked about together. The Crimson's mate is usually an Emerald whose element is the opposite of the counterpart Crimson. Such unions would be fire and water, air and earth. The Emeralds only difference in power is that they weren't as balance as the Crimsons. Their defensive magic is strong but their offensive is weak.

Arashi Setsuna, the newest member of Weiss is the last mage. He is a Sapphire. Sapphires are the third ranking clan of Mages. Though the only difference between the Crimson and Sapphire are that Sapphires have no elemental attributes like the Jacks and Fighters. However this does not mean they are not powerful, they are powerful enough to rival the Crimsons but the Crimsons had the elemental advantage. In retaliation, Sapphires would steal an opposing Crimson's mate. This caused great woe to the Crimsons but their mate however will not know of the treachery nor will the Crimsons. Many Crimsons have chosen death over life because of this betrayal.

Introductions (Groups):

Weiss Kreuz, or White Cross in German, is a part of the Kritiker, an organization to eliminate the true evil that justice of law could not touch. The Weiss today in this age are either the sons of the Weiss before or related to them in some way or another. However the code-names of Weiss remain the same, Abyssinian, Balinese, Siamese, Bombay, and Siberian. Bombay is however special as he will be the next Persia of Kritiker. Yet when the Weiss began the Abyssinian would go through great horrors before choosing life or death. Another aspect of Weiss is that everyone is part of a mage clan. These Clans are the Crimson, Sapphire, Emerald, Jack, and Fighters though the Sapphires are the lasts to join the group; Crimsons are always in the commander's role.

Schwartz, Black in German, is also apart of Kritiker though in the recent group, they in the beginning are not, however now they are. Like Weiss, Schwartz does have each member to come from a mixed clan, one parent Crimson and the other to be the Crimson's mate. Crawford is a Sapphire, Schuldich an Emerald, Nagi a Jack, and Farfarello a Fighter. As it looks there is no Crimson of any sort will ever be within the ranks of Schwartz.

Black Occult also known as the End Worshipers. The Occult is known to be renegade Mages who want the end of non-magic humans, Dannen or the Fallen. As the name implies they want to summon the most evil and powerful of all demons, the Behemoth, Reaper. In order for them to do this, their leader must be a Crimson. It is however unknown who this leader is. Like the Occult, he/she is shrouded in mystery.

Prologue:

He came into the picture after Weiss returned from their adventures in Kyoto. Needless to say, he and Aya were rivals from the start. Yohji, Ken, and Omi just accepted their new comrade in arms wholeheartedly though Yohji's was much different than the others. His name is Arashi Setsuna, a man who is a Kendo master, a man who wield the katana. He has black hair and grey eyes. It was revealed to Aya that he was a Sapphire mage after a year of training in the mountains, a request from Persia.

As for Yohji's greeting Setsuna, he and Setsuna became an item secretly a month after the Sapphire arrived but went into public after Aya and Setsuna returned from the mountains. Aya does not trust Setsuna fully knowing the truth behind the Sapphires, him being a Crimson and all. Yet he trusted Setsuna to take care of Yohji, even at the cost of his own happiness. He is willing to give up Yohji if he [Yohji] is happy with Setsuna. One thing that Setsuna does not know of Aya is that he is a Crimson. This story takes place about a year after Yohji and Setsuna went public.

Crimson Roses: Part 1

"Setsuna be careful, I don't want to lose you my beloved," whispered Yohji into Setsuna's ear as he embraced him.

"I will, I will. I'm not suicidal like him," replied Setsuna, pulling Yohji down to kiss him lips on lips.

Unbeknownst to them, Aya watched the happy couple do their romantic ritual of love before a mission. It was an ache to his heart to watch to know he lost him forever. Yet he never voiced anything, no complaints, no heartaches. No matter how much he tried to convince that Yohji was better off with Setsuna, he could not suppress the pain he was in. Soon he felt an unusual aura, an aura that should not be on this plane. He began to scan the area for the source; soon his eyes fell upon it.

"A demon," whispered Aya as he stood in the shadows in front of the black serpentine wolf.

"A what," asked Ken looking at his leader but Aya ignored him.

"Bombay get the target, Siamese cover him. Siberian do the same. Balinese you're with me," commanded Aya motioning the group to act.

"Why doesn't Balinese stay with me? I always worked with him," whined Siamese. His grey eyes flashed as he glared at Aya.

"Come on, Abyssinian, just this once let us o what we want for once," added Yohji, placing a hand on Aya's shoulder.

"You never questioned my order before," said Aya with authority, shrugging the hand off.

"Abyssinian let them do what they want, I'll stay with you," replied Ken.

'I don't want that Ken,' thought Aya as he glared at the brunette, "Are you questioning my order too, Siberian?"

"No but for once let up and let them do what they want."

At first it would seem that Aya would refuse until he said, "Bombay, Siamese take the target out. Balinese, Siberian cover them. Now go, we wasted too much time!"

Normally Omi would reject about Aya being alone but at Ken's shaking of his head, he didn't protest. The quartet ran to where the target was supposed to be while Aya stayed behind watching the Demon who had not sensed his presence, yet. Aya recalled the Demon being named a wyrm. Aya stepped out of the shadows that veiled him, letting the monster sense him.

When Manx gave the mission, it did not state that the target was so in depth with the Dark Arts of the Black Occult. It only stated that they were apart of the Occult of Darkness. After the debriefing, Manx pulled Aya to the side and stated that he may have free use of his talents as a Crimson. He told her that was impossible since his dayen is not yet found and his powers my go awry. In truth he found his dayen in Yohji yet with him away he hoped that his power wouldn't cause the destruction of Tokyo.

He raised his sheathed katana as the monster slashed at his torso before impaling into it. Aya moaned in agony as the blood flowed freely. He jumped and rolled to the side as the wyrm used its tail on him. Aya did not open the blade until at last he heard the scream of the wyrm. His master must have died. Aya raised his silver blade above his head and chanted,

"Demon of Darkness,
Wielder of Evil and Woe,
Creator of Destruction
I banish you from this plane
With the Blood of Life
Breath of Might
Power of Darkness' Plight
Demon be gone!"

Soon a black portal to the Demon Realm was breached and the wyrm was slowly sucked inside. 'Wait, SLOWLY,' thought Aya, 'It should be gone by now. That means...' Soon Omi's yelled cause him to turn away from the monster.

"Abyssinian, we can't find the target but we killed the second in command! We have to find him," yelled Omi as he and the others stumbled on to the scene.

"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT," screamed Ken as he gazed upon the demon.

"Just what I was thinking, Siberian," replied Yohji.

"A wyrm," whispered Setsuna, "that means Abyssinian is a…"

"ABYSSINIAN LOOK OUT," screamed Omi as the wyrm used it's tail to choke Aya.

"Bombay, the target has to be around here somewhere, look for him. I got this one," choked Aya.

"Right," said Bombay shakily.

"There's no need for that, Weiss. When I heard from my leader that Weiss was my killer. I knew to be ready," said their target, Kage Satoshi. "So you have a Crimson with you. I should have know to expect that, the Crimson hair does give that away."

"Bombay, get him now. The target first before anyone else," yelled Aya as much as he could as the wyrm's grip tightened.

When the order was made, Bombay used his crossbow to try to kill the target but the target used a mind shield to block it. Omi tried again and again but it was futile. Ken managed to get close enough to strike but his slashes didn't make contact. 'A Sapphire,' thought Aya.

"Balinese use the wire to grasp Kage's leg," commanded Aya.

He complied and soon enough the shield died for a mind's shield can only protect a specific part of the body, Ken was aiming toward the head. Setsuna who could resist killing the target impaled the target in the stomach. Soon the wyrm disappeared into the portal and Aya collapsed unto the ground, completely drained. Yet a tail from the wyrm came back out and was about to rip Yohji's arm off however Aya pushed him to the side and received the blow to his right side. It was deep and long. Looking at Balinese, he collapsed.

~^~ Dream ~^~

"Where am I, " said Yohji sleepily as he awoke in an immensely bright white room.

"You are in the place of choosing where, I can grant you your greatest desire," replied a familiar voice from the only darken corner of the room.

"Choosing…?"

"Yes, choosing. To choose the greatest desire that separates your heart. What do you want?"

"You sound familiar, who are you," asked Yohji curiously, "I know by the tone of your voice that you are male."

"Is that your desire?"

"WHAT!!! I mean no, I just want to know who you are," exclaimed Yohji.

"Why," asked the hidden man, "You never act like you cared about me before."

"Does that mean I know you?"

"Perhaps."

"I just want to know who you are. I feel like you are someone that I know that I just want to confirm it," said Yohji.

A pause.

"I'm a friend. What do you desire?"

"Can you tell me your name and show me who you are?"

He could feel his companion shake his head before replying, "No, not now."

"If I tell you what I want would you show yourself?"

"Perhaps but what do you wish for?"

Yohji thought a little, "I want to be with someone for my entire life, in this life and the lives after. I'm tired of moping for Asuka; I want to be with someone else. All I know is that I am torn between two people."

"Who," inquired the stranger.

"I don't know who but could you tell me?"

"They are in your heart. I can give what you want at someone else's happiness."

"Whose," inquired Yohji.

"There are two people in your heart. Two people who love you greatly; both want you as their eternal mate. Yet you must choose one and the other will suffer and must choose life or death."

"Will I remember the one I didn't choose?"

"Depending on what he or she chooses. If life he/she will find another mate, if death then he or she will fade from the shadows of your mind until you forget them completely. Until then you will think he or she only as a friend, then they will disappear from your mind completely."

"Don't lie to me, I know that they are both male."

"I won't then."

"Will I remember this choosing?"

"No and yes. You will only think of this as a fading dream."

"Does that also imply to you?"

"So many questions, Yohji. No, you will not I will either be forgotten or loved by you," said the shadow man quietly.

"Does that mean you are one of the two in my heart," asked Yohji more curiously than before.

"…Hn."

"Now I feel I do know you. I just couldn't place my finger on it."

"Who do you choose?"

"I think I know now. Whoever is the once I don't choose. I hope they forgive me. I choose… Setsuna."

"Is that truly what you desire?" The voice became distant but Yohji could detect the sorrow it had.

"Yes, now come out and show yourself," commanded Yohji.

The figure moved forward. Yohji could see the build of a man then the pale porcelain skin. Next was a glimmer of amethyst but soon the room begun to dim and the figure was soon fading. Yohji ran to the man hoping to make contact with him before he was gone which he did.

"Who are you," asked Yohji desperately.

The man replied, "I am Ran, ai shiteru Yohji." Then the room and the man in Yohji's arms disappeared and Yohji was left in the black void until he was brought back to the waking realm.

~^~ Hospital ~^~

Aya awoke from his slumber and examined the room once more. This was the second time he woke up after the mission with the Occult. He was in a coma for about a week before coming to and that was yesterday. Soon he realized he was not alone. He looked at the intruder expecting Omi, Manx or Birman but it was someone he thought of never coming to visit him, Setsuna.

"What do you want," asked Aya harshly, as he glared at the brunette.

"Don't be so harsh, Aya, I just want to talk," replied Setsuna softly.

"Fine, talk," barked Aya, his voice in anger.

"I didn't know, Aya, you never told me that you were…. were a Crimson. I just thought it was just mere competition between us, not destiny intervening. Had I known how much you wanted Yohji for yourself, I would have given him to you," said Setsuna.

"I don't want him because of power, I want him to want me as he does you. That will never happen, you won and the Sapphires prevail once again," spoke Aya looking outside the window.

"What do you mean?"

"I performed the choosing with him by dream. He has chosen you; the bond is between you two now. I cannot break that."

"What? He loves you too, I'm sure of it."

"Not as much as you, Setsuna but," he glared at the man with so much anger and viciousness that Setsuna winced, "IF YOU SHOULD HURT HIM, I swear I will kill you with what strength I have left!"

"I swear he loves you not me. I was only playing with him but this it's impossible. He's not even a Mage," stammered Setsuna.

"He is an Emerald, he chosen you and you must deal with it, NOW GET OUT," yelled Aya.

"FINE, I will love him better than what you will ever do to him," hissed Setsuna walking out.

"I know, I know," whispered Aya as Setsuna disappeared from sight.

"You can come out now," Aya said to the ones in the shadows.

"How did you know we were here," asked Manx.

"Simple your perfume and aura. I'm a Crimson after all."

"Do you truly want me to do this Abyssinian," asked Manx hesitantly.

"Not you but Persia, I want to go with my pride not my last breath," replied Aya.

"If you are for certain then I shall do it," responded Persia.

"I am. I want to go this way," said Aya.

Manx left the room as Persia told Aya to close his eyes. She dialed the flower shop and said, "Hello Omi, Abyssinian is having a heart attack and a seizure. The doctors don't think will last because of his wounds. I want you to get over here with Weiss ASAP." As she spoke, her voice was in hysterical. She reentered the room to find Aya sitting erect with Persia behind him, a gun to his head.

"You're a good actor, take good care of them," spoke Aya, and then Persia pulled the trigger.
