 "--ood morning, Felici. We've come to the top of the hour. With us still is Representative Miller discussing the recent rise in protests. Bill, if I had to--"
A groggy hand rose from the bundled up ball of blankets to click the alarm's snooze button. "... hrmm." Came the sound of resistance as the hand began searched for the glasses beside the radio. After a shuffle here and a groan there the young woman sat up in her bed, hair disheveled and glasses a tad crooked on her face. "..." And would sit. Staring forward at the wall with a deadpan gaze. Gods, she hated those first few moments of waking up.
"--nd thank you for listening to your number one radio station for your News. Blues. And all that jazz. Coming up, an inside edition with Jeremy Clarke. Interviews on both sides of the issues--"
Click went the alarm to off. Wow, five minutes had passed. "Hrmmmmm .... Fine." Emiko mumbled as she dragged herself out of bed. It wouldn't be the cold tiled floor of her bathroom that would wake her up. It wouldn't be the hot water hitting her face in the shower. It wouldn't be the untangling of her hair or brushing of her teeth. It wouldn't be the buttoning of her blouse or the fastening of her stiletto shoes. No. Not even the news or the music on the radio would wake her up. It would be a smell ....
.... Coffee. Emi couldn't help but sniff delightfully as her feet picked up their pace while descending the stairs. Coffee, coffee, coffe, -- coffeeeeeee. The young woman's face lit up as she poured the hot liquid into a mug and lifted it to her lips. Oh, the smile that grew. Immediately any morning fog lifted, seemed it was going to be sunny in all sorts of weather today.
Sure, the schedule was busy today but now she not only knew she could take it all on but it was going to be a good day. Sip.
6 Months Prior...
"Bitch!" Emiko spat through gritted teeth as she continued sprinting. Finally she found the little lying harlot! She wasn't entirely sure of how it had happened but all she was sure of was that the damn Magi had used her. And this, above all else, pissed her off. And unlucky for her, Emi was catching up and quickly.
Any other woman would probably struggle in those heels, especially in this terrain. With every struggled spring forward another fire seemed to spark in her eyes. First thing she was going to do was grab that bitch's hair in a fist and slam it into the beach. Kyne was eating sand if it was the last thing she did! 讓我寫你的故事的結尾。  提到kyne筆記Thanks for you patience with this, kiddo. Heart you and your baby! Emi is just a liiiiil mad is all~

» Kyne rubbed her face with her pale hands, hoping that by the time she opened her eyes she would be somewhere else—anywhere else. Maybe at home snuggling under the blankets; listening to the natural city sounds shrieking outside her window, lulling her to an unsettling sleep. That would be better, but no. When her violet-blue eyes opened again, she was in the same hell. Obnoxiously loud music continued to rattle her ears, and naked forms still swayed through clouds of thick smoke. This was her life now. All her ‘freedom’ amounted to was standing behind a dirty bar so she could serve drinks to the same piggish men who would later leer at her twin. Great.
The magi sighed before grabbing a dingy cloth to dunk in a bucket full of sanitizer. Then, she slapped the drenched cloth on the bar and scrubbed away the sticky circles the beer mugs left behind. There had to be more to life than this. She paid her dues, didn’t she? At this thought, her eyes dropped to her hands as she was reminded of that night. The night that woman came back to remind her what she really was. The memory haunted her like the plague…causing her to flinch at every stranger, to look over her shoulder at every turn. Kyne tried so hard to forget, yet it always came back to torment her mind. It was a damp, cold night that would have been perfect for a casual stroll by the beach. Not a perfect night for her to be hunted down like the prey animal her antlers represented.
~Cue Flashback~
The salt in the air burned her throat as she struggled to sprint across the sand. By this point every part of her body was beginning to feel like lead, dragging her down so the waves could commence swallowing her whole. Still, she continued, pushing her aching muscles as the sounds of heavy breathing was heard close behind her. “Why was this happening!?” Kyne coughed, tripping over her feet momentarily as she slid down another dune. Sand lashed against her face, and she reached up to quickly swipe the rough grains away before forcing her legs to continue forward.
In her past, she had been a test subject—no, a lab rat for a young professor named Dr. Inoue. Under her supervision, the magi had endured countless experiments that resulted in gut-wrenching pain. Yet, she had also learned how to read, write, and the most important medical practices that inspired her to become a doctor one day. In the university, Kyne had developed a dream because of this woman, but she had also fell for her. Then, later seduced her in order to secure a safe exit out of the testing laboratories. Between love and freedom, she chose freedom. Because of that, her past mistakes were now chasing close behind her in the form of an angry runic professor.

Emiko could't help but smirk to the middle aged gentleman who immediately nudged his way further inside the metro's car upon seeing her. Seemed he recognized her. Good. It wasn't every day when Emi would place a Paralyze Rune on a civilian. But when he chose to become Mr Grabby-Grabby Hands, he was lucky he still had fingers attached. The poor sod was still on the same car when Emi boarded to return home after work that same day. So, at least it seemed he had learned something from the experience?
Secretly pleased with the shyness of Mr Grabby Emi rose a hand to grab a handle as the metro's start caused her to sway along with the rest of the travelers. The train was a daily trip for her. She easily recognized most of the school kids even at this point, each on their ways to their respected schools.
And it would be here that she would remain for the next twenty minutes or so. The trip to work ... Emi's brows furrowed lightly before raising her thermos, taking another drink of her coffee ... There was a time that she would have been holding two. It was quite unfortunate but Emiko's mind refused to allow her to forget how that Magi had preferred her morning beverage. Kyne probably never realized but Emi had had it down to a science. Kyne's got exact measurements and were brewed at a specific temperature to accentuate the flavors. Kyne would probably never be able to drink a coffee exactly the way she had liked it ... Unless of course that had been a lie too. She could have hated it all along. Been a tea person or hot chocolate person the whole time--
"Stop." Emiko unconsciously scolded herself verbally. Getting the attention of nearby fellow metro riders. "... Sorry, I was talking to myself." The Runic Professor would admit with annoyance as she forced her attention out the window behind her. Ignoring any further confused glances from those that had heard her.
6 Months Prior...
"Kyne, stop!" Emiko called ahead with a heavy snarl. "Stop!" In seeing the Magi had plans to do the opposite Emiko's pace picked up even faster. Looking back, she had been fueled by rage. Definitely.
"I. Said." Emi growled as she somehow managed a decent attempt to tackle the woman into the ground, "STOP!" If successful in the action the woman would grip the Magi's blonde hair and violently thrust the bitch's face into the sand beneath them. And it wouldn't be just once. It would be a few times. Almost as if allowing the beach to punch Kyne's face for her.
It wouldn't be until the fourth time that Emi would attempt to turn the woman over to better face her. She deserved to see! "What the hell do you think you're doing?!" The Runic Professor would ask, not even attempting to hide her anger. An extremely rare scenario indeed. 讓我寫你的故事的結尾。 提到kyne 筆記So Emi is trying to take yo ass out. I'm sure you're totally cool with this and all.
Everything was left open ended so if something didn't land just, you know, write it the way you wish to have had it happen~ I'll roll with what you bring /o/

»“Kyne! Kyne!” The woman heard a harsh shouting in her ears and looked up to see her manager staring right at her. For a moment she stood there blinking her violet eyes, trying to wash away the remnants of her memory. “Y-Yes?” She replied as she pushed back a lock of light blonde hair.
“Time for you to head home, sweetie. Shifts over.” The man grunted, giving her one of his sympathetic looks. Guess he figured she was just falling victim to exhaustion, which wasn’t incorrect. It had been well past midnight, and lack of sleep was a common problem with her lately. “Thanks.” Kyne mumbled, turning around to pick up her belongings before making her way to the back exit. The heavy metal door creaked as she swung it out to welcome the warm, humid air. Breathing it in, Kyne stepped out cautiously into the dark alley. In the front of the building some strippers would loiter along with their patrons, but not here. It was always quiet in a very eerie way.
Pulling her coat closer over her chest, the girl looked both ways along the alley to see if it was clear. Then, once she felt it was safe, Kyne made her way down the narrow brick passage. Sterling’s apartment was pretty close from their work, but it was far from a safe walk. It was not uncommon for humans to ambush Magi in the red-light district. Those who were lucky would escape with a few scratches, and the worst ones would be found in a dump somewhere. It was funny how she expected the world outside Emi’s lab to be so amazing. When, in actuality, it was ten times more dangerous. Funny, ever since the encounter she had suddenly become so much more aware of her surroundings in a miserable kind of way. There wasn’t a moment where she wasn’t frantically looking behind her to make sure she was alone—that no one was following her, chasing her.
~Cue Flashback~
“No! Dammit, just leave me alone!!!” Kyne yelled back to her pursuer just in time to see Emiko barrel right into her. “F-Fu—“ The magi tried to curse, but found herself eating sand instead. After having the grains dig into her face multiple times, she was finally flipped to her back. A mouth full of sand spat back at Emi in bitter defiance. “Running. I’m NOT going back to the university.” She hissed, wiping the hard specks away from her eyes before aiming several punches toward her attacker. Whether or not they landed was questionable, however, it was a half-assed act of defense. Once she was done throwing fists, Kyne would lay panting against the cold terrain underneath her. “I have a life, now. I won’t let you take that from me so I can be your pet. I’m sorry…” –swallows hard, knowing the next words out of her mouth were painful to say.- “I chose my freedom over you….I don’t regret it.”

Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick. Tick went the clock as the young woman crossed her legs the other way. Glancing up from her desk Emi watched as her students' pens continued to write away on their exams. Back up to the clock, another hour and a half to go. Bringing her hands back to rest upon her lap she soon found herself unable to focus on work. Yeah, it was that bad. The workaholic couldn't focus on the research file in front of her.
Why had the Magi popped into her head that morning? Why? She had gone a few whole days without thinking of Kyne once and all of a sudden it's all she could think of on the metro? What sparked that? What was her unconscious remembering that her forefront thoughts couldn't quite put their finger on?
Twirling her pen in one hand the other rose to bring the personalized coffee thermos to her lips. Two Magi baby fetuses were required by Wednesday and here she was hung up on pointless past relationship bull crap. Tick. Tick. There was nothing more aggravating. Tick.
6 Months Prior...
Emiko's face didn't do well in hiding her disgust at the sandy spit that hit her. Disgusting! The woman's hands quickly became distracted in wiping it from her blouse before an unexpected punch knocked her out of her OCD tendencies. "The f--?" Emiko's eyes sharpened as her defense instincts kicked in, blocking the rest of the blows easily and with precision. "What the hell has gotten into you?!"
Aiming to vice grip the young woman's wrists to the ground, Emiko held herself above the Magi. "If my-my boss found out about this I would--" Emi took a few breaths to lower her voice. It looked like they were alone but this wasn't something to yell about. "This would ruin my career. Your paperwork is still pending for--"
......
Emiko stared as the words struck her chest with a violently dark thud. The woman who was always so solid on hiding her emotions was failing. And failing hard. The professor's eyes grew wide and even flinched at the last sentence. "Pet." Her lips managed to whisper. Had Kyne really believed that all this time, all those times, she was just a pet to her? If she had believed that all this time then ... had any of that been real?
"...... You used me." Emiko finally concluded as her mind had worked through the many hedge mazes that had sprouted up. The sound of the sea waves rolling would be the only sound. The only sound. Other than Emi's heart beat in her ears.
讓我寫你的故事的結尾。 提到kyne 筆記So ... that was actually hard for me to write. I'm genuinely surprised.

»Sirens echoed through the city as Kyne continued to make her way down that dreadfully dark alley. Her eyes watched the shadows as they danced along the crumbling brick walls. Any happy thoughts would keep her nerves at rest, but her mind wasn’t that kind. Instead, she continued to think about her past while her boots shuffled over garbage litter. Even if she had been a slave to the university she was happy with Emi. Why did she run away? ‘Squeak!’ Suddenly, a rat ran between the magi’s legs, causing her to jump out of the way in shock. “Tch.” She curled her lips down in disgust for a moment. Then, her features would relax as she continued to walk home. Right that was all that she was in the labs…A filthy rodent. Even if Emi didn’t see her that way, everyone else would have.
~Cue Flashback~
There wasn’t much fight left in her. Running across the sand was hard enough, but to physically go up against someone like Emi was a waste of energy. Kyne wasn’t a hand-to-hand combat fighter. The best she could do was save what strength she had left to focus on healing later. So the girl didn’t yank her wrists free when they were pinned. All she managed was an exhausted glare up at her previous owner. “Your boss?” She snapped back until realizing what Emi was trying to say. ‘Awww shit.’ Unexpectedly, her chest grew tight as she processed this information. Dr. Inoue wasn’t here to take her back…she was here against orders?
Kyne turned her head away in an attempt to hide what was running across her mind. In a twisted sort of way, she had been more afraid of Emi coming back to reconcile their relationship than to kidnap her. Not that she didn’t love her…in a way she did. But fuck, man! She couldn’t go back pretending it was ok to be a test subject, and she couldn’t put Emiko at risk with the university. The best answer was to end it so the human could move on with her life….lead a happy one that didn’t involve Kyne messing it up. Even back then their affair had been a giant risk.
“Yes…” She swallowed hard, feeling her lip tremble as the lie plunged off her tongue. Then it came out so much easier-- all at once. “What cliché bullshit do you want me to say? I used you the same way you used me.” Turning her head back, she forced herself to glare up to the other woman. “Now we are even.” After those last words a strange numbness spread across her body. There was no hard sand pressed against her back; no cold seawater rushing up to brush against her blonde hair. Just the overwhelming feeling that she really hated the shit out of herself.

Emiko poked at the sashimi on her plate for a good seven minutes before the sushi chef behind the counter asked if it was satisfactory. "No, no. Wonderful as always, Haru. I'm just ... trying to figure something out. Thank though." The Runic Professor smiled back before popping a Gunkanmaki roll into her mouth to prove she was telling the truth. The chef smiled back before lowering his head to complete a few Chirashizushi for table seven.
Why today? Emiko chewed, her chopsticks returning to poke at her sashimi. Why was her bitter ex so prominent in her thoughts today? It's not like they really had an anniversary to speak of. The young woman would take another sip of green tea as she pondered her mind's cruelty.
6 Months Prior...
Another ocean wave rolled up onto the beach as Emiko stared long and hard. Silence. It was deafening. The throbbing in her chest, painful. If the Magi attempted to speak another single word after that last sentence Emi would have slapped her and hard. No more. She couldn't take more right now. Her brain was trying to comprehend what had already been spoken for god's sakes.
This ... hurt. This physically hurt her. At a later time she would look back appreciatively for experiencing something so different. It was fascinating really. That mere words could cause her this much anxiety to the point of physical pain.
"I see." Came the words eventually. Language had gotten jumbled up within her mind, tangled on her tongue. But now they left with a strained voice. Tight. Struggling to keep tears from falling. "Heh ..." Emiko sat up, releasing any hold she had on the Magi beneath her, though allowing herself to sit upon Kyne's torso that she straddled. Another sea wave kissed her closest stiletto before rolling back away. Eyes glued to the pitch dark ocean, nothing but motion slightly visible if one squinted.
An older and wiser her would disagree in the future, but as her mind worked through her own stormier waves her brain would angrily conclude that this in fact had been a waste of her time. All of those earlier mornings to bring favorite pastries. Those hours teaching. Those hushed sleepovers Emi spent in Kyne's designated room. Those personal feelings. All of it had been wasted ...
... on some bitch that didn't even appreciate it. Emiko's eyes sharpened as her attention returned to the Magi still underneath her. Huh. Hadn't that used to be the norm? Psh.
"No. Cliches are asinine." Emiko quipped with a clear edge. "Much like you right now. -- Tch," Emi began as she stood up, dusting off her knees from the sand. "Didn't even have the decency to drop that on me in a more professional manner. This is what I get for making a, a Magi a fuck toy."
And then something happened that had never been done before. Not even during their most intimate moments. "Get up." Emiko snapped, a hand pulling out the Runic pen from in between her breasts under her blouse and, upon tucking it into the pocket of her blazer, tossing them both aside on the sandy beach. "Now." 讓我寫你的故事的結尾。 提到kyne 筆記Well ...

»Her hands pulled her coat tighter over her chest as a gentle wind blew through the narrow brick maze. Just one more turn and she would be one alley away from the main street, to what some considered safety. Honestly, there wasn’t a single place in the city that was safe. “Hmm.” She sighed, looking up to see a night sky tainted by light pollution. No stars, just airplanes buzzing overhead with bright lights and loud engines. Slowly, her chin lowered so she could see a dark-cloaked figure sitting parallel to the left wall. For a moment Kyne stopped, trying to decide whether or not to keep walking or take another path.
Poverty wasn’t uncommon in Dagos. Many unfortunate souls found themselves sleeping in gutters on the side of the street or in some dark corner. Although, it didn’t mean that they were all sweet, humble people. If mugging a stranger could feed a starving stomach for a night then there was a slim chance they wouldn’t do it. Oh well, she was sure she’d be fine. The magi took in a deep breath as she pushed her legs forward, and kept the cloaked individual in her peripheral vision.
~Cue Flashback~
Silence was enough to tell her that Emiko wasn’t taking the news well. It was a bold move that she had hoped would send the runic professor off on a violent tangent. After being sent to pound town, not the good kind of pound town, she hoped that her ex-lover would leave. There was one thing Kyne could deal with, and that was pain. What she couldn’t deal with is the thought of living with herself after this….wondering if she made the right choice by emotionally hurting someone she really did care about. Guess the magi would find that all out later if she survived this.
“Heh, you always did love your fancy, big words.” A grin forced its way across her lips as she pushed more insults off her tongue—each one ringing with guilt and regret. “It’s odd that an inept whore would know such colorful vocabulary.” If that didn’t piss her off than nothing would. She knew better than anyone how long her fuse was; that statement was sure to cut it short. ’God damn it! Just hit me already!’ Kyne pleaded inside her mind, wanting this to end before it got any worse. Better yet, before she ended up cracking from the tightening of her chest. This emotional shit storm pain was far more brutal than anything she had experienced... “I’m sorry. Would you like me to curtsy as I explain that I only fucked you to get out of that shithole prison you and your buddies pranced around?” A scoff escaped her lungs in a more honest manner. The university always left bitterness as well as her early childhood memories of it. The only anger she drew was from that.
However, her self-hatred at this point was far more powerful than her anger towards her past. So when Emi demanded her to get up, Kyne just sat up with a look of irritated exhaustion. “Why? So you can gain some satisfaction by beating me to a pulp while I make a half-assed attempt to protect myself?” Her brows furrowed in utter seriousness. “No. I deserve any scratch, punch, or kick you throw at me, but I will not waste energy on trying to hit you back.” The magi’s back would then arch forward so that she was leaning in. Meanwhile, her dark blue eyes gazed up at Emi with a silent flame of suffering. “So hurry it up. Beat me to a pulp—I’m sure you will enjoy it. Damn Sadist.” It wasn't a matter of fear or laziness..losing was inevitable. The less energy she put into fighting, the more she could put into healing her battered body later.

Tick. Tick. Tick went the clock again. Another exam. More students with furious pens writing Olden Language characters so that they might be trusted to learn the next Rune. In time with the clock Emiko tapped her pen against the empty coffee thermos. And it wouldn't be until a ring tone went off that Emi's gaze would snap up. "Really?" Emi asked with an intimidating tone that caused students to look up in fear of failing. "On exam day one of you didn't turn off your ph .. one .. s?" Glancing down to her briefcase ... Unzipping it she pulled out her phone to see it was in fact her that was the culprit. "Official business. Continue with your exams. I won't be long." The young woman lied effectively as she walked out from around her desk. Once the classroom door closed behind her and she found herself alone in the hallway Emi swiped to answer the phone call -- to receive the reminder. Huh. She didn't remember setting up anything on the schedule on her phone. A manicured finger would swipe the screen ... and would freeze. Emiko stared at the words as the day clicked into place. This was why. Subject QQT553897 accepted release date. (aka Kyne's move in day! ≧◡≦ ) Emi's hand shook as she read the words over and over. That's right. Today. All that paperwork back then and this was the day. Today. Her forms were accepted to be released today. Today. Oh my gods ... that's why ... that's why ... 6 Months Prior... Something in her snapped. There was a literal snap sound that occurred in Emiko's ears whether others heard it or not. Emi was known to be an extremely patient person by her peers. She had been called every negative word you could think of in the span of four languages and never. Never. Had it affected her as it did now. "Fuck you!" The woman actually screamed before swiftly moving forward to attempt a strong kick to the damn Magi's chest to knock her back down. "Fuck you! FUCK you!" If uninterrupted the woman would kick again and again. How dare she say Sadist! She did all she could for this bitch! In their alone time Emi had never treated someone as preciously. And if that was a slang insult to the professor's preferred bed manner, well that just pissed her off even more. It had taken a long time to trust the damn Magi to show that side of herself and look at what that accomplished. A snide two faced word of terminology that is best not written. With a pivot on one stiletto-ed foot Emiko aimed the next kick unconsciously towards a very specific section of the Magi's face. Emi's mind was lost in a storm and so offensive stances were becoming second nature. However before the kick landed Emi let out a surprised cry, her leg jolting in pain, halting the momentum. "Take care of the runaway. And do do your best to not kill it." had come the order over the phone. Those had been her Head Master's orders. Staggering back a step or two Emi shook her head, refusing to grab the arm that held her Runic tattoo. The source of the burning sensation running through out her body. Had she almost lost herself to the point of trying to kill ...? Oh my gods ... That kick, the angle and force behind it were taught to break a man's nose up through their skull and into the brain. Emi trembled for a second until the sensation died back down. Deep breath. Deep breath. Deep breath. Okay, she had almost killed her without realizing it. That wasn't an option ... Emiko would stare at the, I'm sure, huddled Magi as she tried to regain her cognitive skills. The order was left rather open now that she thought of it. Obviously what was implied was that she bring the subject back. But with Kyne being how she apparently was, that would only bring disciplinary charges down on her ass, hard. Her career would be over once Kyne opened her mouth. At that point she'd be a, what? Slave to the Head Master? Never allowed to represent the University from outside its walls again? Emi worked on reeling in her heart rate as her brain thought through her options and would actually halt in mid inhale when the solution occurred to her. How to not make this bitch a waste of her time. She had used her? Fine. It was time to repay the favor. Walking forward Emi would force on a smile that was as faked as you could get. "You know. When you first showed up I did a double take." The professor began, weaving her words together in a precise manner. "But it turned out that you were gender-bend's sibling." A single dark chuckle would dance through her lips. "Whiny and crude little thing he was. He only ever shut up after he lost quite a bit of blood." The smile grew, "It seemed you both weren't worth much more than your bones after all. Though you did get me to oopsie a few times so at least there's that. I got that much out of a useless thing." And so the woman clapped lightly for herself. The seeds having been planted. 讓我寫你的故事的結尾。 提到kyne 筆記Well ...

»The closer she got to the strange figure, the more she pondered over his situation compared to hers. Yeah, her life was a mess, but she wasn’t homeless. That, and she still had Sterling who had been there for her every step of the way. This guy probably didn’t have anyone… A pang of sympathy filled her chest as the woman stopped in front of the man. Looking down with gentle blue eyes, Kyne fished through her purse for the $30 dollar tip she had made tonight. Once the cash was safely pinched in between her fingers, she leaned down to offer it to the cloaked gentleman. “Here…This should get you by for a bit.” A gentle smile crossed her lips as she spoke.
Slowly, a pale hand rose from the dark fabric to gently touch the money, feeling along the edges until moving to her hand. Without warning, the man then grabbed her wrist and yanked off his hood to reveal a dirty looking human. “You think I need your charity, Magi?” He grinned with a mouthful of rotting teeth. “I’d much rather have your antlers on my mantel!”
~Cue Flashback~
The “Fuck you!” was a good enough sign to let Kyne know to brace herself. Here on out the ride was going to get very rocky, and very painful in more ways than one. So, the magi took a deep breath before feeling a sharp pain hit her chest, causing her body to fly back against the sand with a heavy thud. ’I deserve this.’ She whispered under her breath before erupting into a fit of wheezing coughs. Rolling to her side, she attempted to push herself back up until another hit nailed her in the side. ‘I deserve this’ The same thought returned the moment her body crumpled back down to the ground. After that, there was nothing she could do. Blow after blow would come, and after every one she curled in tighter, whispering to herself in a shuddering voice. ‘I deserve this’ Kick. ‘I deserve this’ Kick. ‘I deserve this.’ Kick.
This torment was expected to go on for a while, but for some reason, it didn’t. At one point, Kyne in her barely conscious state, heard the woman cry out in pain. Then, the attacks stopped, leaving the magi to shiver in agony as she wandered through the collapsing state of her mind. Had it been 3 or 4 months ago she wouldn’t have done this to Emi. In her foolish, naïve mind she would have attempted to fix her mistake, to explain why she left instead of lie through gritted teeth. Then try to pretend they could go back to living all hunky dory? No, even her past-self knew that was not possible---it was the reason why she ran away from the laboratory to begin with.
Emi had been, and still was in a way, everything she had wanted to be. Professional, elegant, intelligent, caring, yet intimidating. Kyne looked up to her, adored her and relished the feeling that the professor had loved her back. However, the disgusted looks from all the other university staff never changed. She was NOT Emi, Not even close to that level. She was a magi test subject—a sack of flesh used to predict various chemicals reactions. That fact alone was what caused her to run. The idea that she was not on the human’s level, and in the facility Kyne never felt good enough for her. It was the equivalent of a beggar on the streets not feeling worthy to look upon his gentle king that passed by. So, in order to become something that was worth Emi’s time, she escaped out into the world with the hopes of returning with a formidable name and occupation; A Doctor. Cute, right? Well, life doesn’t work like that. Instead, what she found was that magi were the deep bottom barrel of races. That hunter's ripped them apart like wild dogs, and the university loathed them as well as any human who associated with them.
To say the least, reality hit. It was ten times more dangerous for her to be with Emiko than she expected. If the university found out about their affair then she would lose her high title, be mocked, and gain a nice spot on some assholes hit list. Also….there was her brother, Sterling. The last bit of family she had, and during the time she was away, life had been incredibly cruel to him. How could she run off again? Leaving him to fend for himself with a meager stripper job? Fuck no! She loved the shit out of that idiot and swore to herself she’d protect him from now on like an older sibling should. All of this is what drove her to spit in Emiko’s face—not out of hatred, but out of genuine hope that Emiko would forget her to find a safer life with someone else. Kyne didn’t deserve her, so she needed to let her go. Plain and simple.
Going over the reasoning was enough to put her mind at rest for the moment. Various aching pains still plagued her body, yet she was able to ignore them enough to breath in the salty air calmly. It wasn’t until her attacker mentioned her brother that the woman snapped back to attention. Her Dark blue eyes widened in shock as she whipped her head around to glare at Emiko. “What!?” She croaked, trying to process all this important information at once. ’Blood?' The word echoed in her skull while a slow rage built up in her stomach. “What the fuck did you do to Sterling?” Her words oozed with bitter venom. She could handle being used and abused, but messing with her sibling was a whole different story. That shit wasn’t going to be tolerated. Wait….did she just give away his name? Fuck, man! Could this get any worse?

Emi should have been grading papers. Emi should have been completing something work related in general, really. But what was she doing? Downing shots of vodka from the bottle she always kept locked in her bottom office desk's drawer. This day had just turned to major suckage and she was determined to drink away the emotions that bubbled up. And here she would remain until 2:37 am when a colleague would finally drive her home. Home where the pattern would begin again, just hopefully without the shitty reminders of past experiences.
6 Months Prior...
"Linnaeus." Emiko corrected with a greatly amused laugh. "What is with you two not appreciating your names? Linnaeus and Phineas. They're cute." The young woman would sing as she walked casually in a circle around the fallen Magi. "Though I will agree that Phineas doesn't make much of a feminine name."
Taking one step after another in those stiletto heels, Emi would keep a sharp stare glued to the huddled woman on the beach floor. "What? You haven't figured it out already? Gods, you're slow. Tch, you're not worth my time .... yet."
"This," Emi spoke with a melodious chime as she tapped her chin in faked thought. "This is what's going to happen. Make sure you pay close attention, I promise I'll go through this really slowly so even you can understand." Emiko undid her sleeve's cuff and began to roll up the material to purposefully showcase the tattoo she had received upon being accepted as a University professor. "I'm tossing you out into the sea, metaphorically. Don't want you to drown." The smile would turn into a well practiced darkened smirk. "You're not giving me any kind of challenge. I mean, I know you're pathetic but that's no reason to just accept it up the ass. So I'm tossing you out there for you to grow up into a big strong adult, okay?" Emi asked patronizingly.
"And when you do, you're going to come back and give me a fight I fucking deserve for licking that skank thing." The woman would say with a vividly defined bite, obviously referring to their romantic entanglements. "And, you will come back." The smile grew as she leaned forward, making sure to make severe eye contact. "Because I'm the one that amputated your brother's leg."
--!
And with a swift kick to the side of the Magi's head, Emi watched as Kyne went down hard.
"....." Emi's eyes burned with tears as she watched the limp body be kissed by another rolling wave. "Fuck you." Emiko would mutter under her breath as she walked away to grab up her jacket, replacing the Runic pen to the necklace around her neck. Sparing a glare to the tattoo upon her arm she would leave the beach, never once looking behind. This is what she called her translation of "taking care of the runaway". Guaranteeing that she would return to the University all her own. And would hopefully be the one to take up revenge by removing Emi's arm, finally ridding her of the tattoo's forced demands of her. Only time would tell if the Magi had truly been a complete waste of her time, or if she would prove useful in this last task. 讓我寫你的故事的結尾。 提到kyne 筆記All non-open ended actions were given prior permission by Psyche, the writer of Kyne through skype messages.
