Chapter 18
 
Only You and Me
 
A/N: Sorry it took me so long. I would have had it posted earlier, but nooooo. One of my friends had to interrupt me! -sighs- Of all times I didn't want to hang out with a friend. -.-

Osiris looked to his left, away from Jeto. He spotted his sister and let an annoyed growl. “Cousin! How could you betray me?”
 
Hasunuma flinched. “I did no such thing. I was never on your side to begin with!”
 
“You wench!” Osiris lunged at his cousin, but Jeto cut him short with a sharp blow against his ribcage, sending him into the brick wall.
 
Osiris peered down at the black cat, noting Jeto had used his whole body to send the attack.
 
Jeto wrapped his arms around the lion's waists and he bit down into the flesh on the side of Osiris' stomach. Blood gushed profoundly into his mouth as he bit down harder and until he could feel his canines connect with an organ. He ignored the agonizing howls from the lion and fought to stay attached to his body and until Jeto knew he had done some serious damage to, almost, kill Osiris. He cringed when sharp claws dug their way into his back and heaved him onto the pavement beside Tet.
 
The lion stumbled onto his hands and knees, panting heavily. His vision blurred slightly from the blood loss and the damage the bite had down to his liver. He peered at the black cat whom was already getting to his feet with the help of Tet. “There's…no way a cat…can beat me!”
 
Jeto sneered. “Well, this `cat' just did!”
 
“…You haven't…beaten me yet, Jeto.” Osiris unsteadily got to his feet and took one slow step after another toward Jeto.
 
Jeto remained composed, not even flinching as the lion was close enough to touch him.
 
When it all came down to it, Osiris was just too weak to even growl. He wrapped his right hand around Jeto's neck and leaned into his shoulder. “…”
 
Jeto wrapped his arms around Osiris' body and gently lowered his body to the ground. He cradled the lion in his arms as if he was a close friend. “You lost, Osiris. It's time to give up.”
 
Hasunuma watched with tear filled eyes as her cousin slowly died in the enemy's caring arms.
 
“…All I wanted was revenge for my comrades…and maybe you…to love…” Osiris whimpered, trying to stay focused.
 
Both the chimeras' forms altered back into humans. The carnage game was over. Osiris had lost.
 
Jeto watched as Osiris' hand lifted to his cheek and stroked it affectionately. He hesitated for a moment before leaning in and capturing Osiris' lips in a lingering kiss. He broke away when the kiss became lack and the feeling of warmth became cold. He stared forlornly into the face of a deceased lion.
 
Tet gazed at Hasunuma who was busy wiping her tears away. “I'm sorry it had to end this way. There was no choice,” he whispered.
 
She nodded to agree. “No, I know. I don't know what happened to my brother. He used to be so kind.”
 
“Usually, when a chimera has killed once or twice they become natural born killers,” Tet explained as he turned to Jeto.
 
Jeto left Osiris' side to be with his other brother, Aurora. He gently shook his brother's arm. “Hey…Aurora?”
 
Aurora didn't respond for a moment, but then he opened his eyes partly. “Hi…little…brother. Did…we win?”
 
Jeto nodded. “Yeah, we won…no thanks to you, you lazy bum…,” he joked halfheartedly.
 
“Heh…” Aurora smiled weakly. It was cute the way his younger brother attempted to cheer him up, but it was without much success. “Just…as long as you're…sa…” His eyes dimmed slowly as his unyielding soul drifted away.
 
The young teen was silent, staring at his brother's smile that didn't seem to fade as he died. He reached out for Aurora's hand that loosely held something. It dropped from his fingers and onto Jeto's lap. He picked up the item and smiled sadly. It was a picture of Joey that Aurora always carried around with him. “He always hoped that dad would love him. He got what he wanted, I suppose.” He smirked slightly. “I never even got to ask Aurora how he found me.”
 
Tet stood behind the younger teen and sighed. “First, you did know that he wasn't your real brother, right? He was your half-brother.”
 
“…I had my suspicion. Why?” Jeto used his bangs to conceal the grief riding up in his eyes. /Just when I was thinking I'm glad that he was my REAL brother. /
 
“He was actually my real brother and Alister's son. That's how he tracked ya down,” Tet enlightened with a chuckle and then sympathized. “I…I'm sorry.” He peered over at Hasunuma who was covering her brother's body with an old sheet. She kneeled by his side and pressed the palm of her hands together in prayer.
 
Jeto snorted. “How long have you known this?” He stood up while placing Aurora's necklace in the back of his shredded boxers' pocket.
 
“For a while,” Tet replied quietly.
 
The teen turned toward Tet and glowered. “How come you never told me when we first met?”
 
“…”
 
“They're coming.”
 
Hasunuma looked up with apprehension. “I must leave before they find me. Please, make sure they give my brother a proper burial.”
 
Tet nodded once for comprehension. “I will. Thank you for the help.”
 
The girl smiled kindly and waved goodbye.
 
Tet turned to answer Jeto's question, but the teen had vanished. “Jeto?”
 
“Tet!” Seto exclaimed as he rushed toward his son. He stopped in his tracks when he noticed the two dead bodies, one being his son. “WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?” He fell to his knees at Aurora's side and noted the smile on his face. “W-where's Jeto?” He asked briskly.
 
Tristan wasn't far behind with a couple police officers right on his trail. He bent over to regain his breath. “We…made…it. Se…” He cut himself off when he noticed Aurora's lifeless body in Seto's arms.
 
“Where's Jeto?” Seto asked again, but softly.
 
“I don't…know,” Tet murmured inaudibly.
 
“WHERE IS HE, TET?” Seto asked louder, startling the people standing around him.
 
“I. Don't. Know!” Tet hissed through his teeth. “He vanished right after he exterminated the lion chimera.”
 
The CEO stared at his son perplexed. “Exterminated? How could he? He knows nothing about slaying chimeras.”
 
“Not unless he changes into a chimera himself.” Tet bowed his head in solemn.
 
Seto stared at his son quizzically.
 
Tristan approached the mound covered with a blanket and uncovered the top to reveal the head. “Hey, Chief, check this out.” /He looks like Marik. / He pointed to the puncture marks on his neck.
 
The Chief came up behind the detective and stared at the bite wounds. “Those aren't deep enough to kill him. Uncover him more,” he demanded.
 
Tristan nodded and uncovered the body until they came across an ugly gash in the lion's side, just under his ribs. He gagged and looked away. “You can't tell me that didn't have anything to do with his death.” He ran to a trashcan to empty the contents of his stomach, of course the stench of the trash didn't help none too much.
 
“Yep, I'd say that's it. That kid did a number on him.” The Chief pointed to several claw marks circling his waist and running along his arms and legs.
 
Why was everything dimming? Further more, why did he feel dizzy? Tet peered at his mauled arm. He watched as the blood oozed down his appendage in heavy sheets. He took a deep breath before his world blacked out. “…uhn…” His eyes rolled back into his head and started collapsing.
 
“Tet!” Seto yelped as he caught his son with his free arm. “Oh, gawd! Someone call an ambulance!”
 
0o-o0
 
Jeto watched them all from overhead on top of a building. He sighed disgruntled. “I can't return home…not with the way I am. Father would never look at me the same way again.”
 
“So where will you go?” Hasunuma asked.
 
The teen shook his head. “Somewhere they'd least expect me to go.”
