So, it looks like Li is subdued. But, is he gone from Tsuzuki's body? What about Hisoka? Is he okay? What will happen next? Join us next time sports fans for more excitement in another installment of Meifu.

At long last, the nightmare might end.
All there is left is to exorcise Li and get Tsuzuki back .... but then again, considering what has been done and said in these dark days, there will be a lot of pain and angst to go through ...
I understand.
*Tatsumi gently carries the unconscious Tsuzuki and places a binding ofuda on him.*
You'll be okay, Tsuzuki-san. I promise. Tatsumi
Tsuzuki slumps forward onto the floor.
someone help him
*Completes the chanting spell putting the possessed shinigami into a deep sleep*
Now to take him back to the Petshop. Help me carry him please Tatsumi-san. After this, I have to go check on Hisoka who's in the hospital now. Enma and I went to see him and found him a victim of Li's revenge too.
Watari making sense for once
AAAA~ARGH!!!nooooooo!!
I see.
*Tatsumi stares at Tsuzuki and begins to concentrate on his shadows to bind him* Tatsumi
Dreamscape
A fight. Tsuzuki, bloodied and bruised, is sitting on Li with his hands around his neck.
Tsuzuki: *gritted teeth* I won't let you do this anymore!!
Li: *gasping for air* You don't know what I've been through!
Tsuzuki: *shouting* I know that you don't have the right to hurt people!!
oooh, getting dark ...
 
Yes ... don't hurt him! Just hold him with your shadows, Iria's got a binding spell we can use so we can take him back to the petshop to force Li out of Tsuzuki.
*Begins chanting the binding spell*
I hope this works
*struggling to feet* Why you --!! I'LL KILL YOU ALL!!!!!
*closes eyes* I pray to the twelve gods who protect me --
*Suddenly, the spell cuts off. There is another scream*
what the -- !!!
Watari-san! How did you get here?
You say that Enma has a way to save him? Tatsumi
*Panics as the dark shadows envelope Tsuzuki/Li*
Tatsumi-san what are you doing? It's TSUZUKI you're hurting too!!!
Freaking out!
Internal conflict
*is in pain, but smiling* "Heh ... I told you Tatsumi wouldn't be so easy ...."
"SHUT UP!!" *fireballs him*
*hisses as Watari appears* You again!! Why aren't you dead? *hurls ofuda at Tatsumi and Watari, but is then engulfed in darkness*
AAAARGH!!!
he's screaming in Tsuzuki's voice ....
Tatsumi lets out a wry smile.
His shadows engulfs the whole room in an instant.
You certainly chose the wrong person to possess, oni. Tatsumi
*Suddenly, Watari senses his friends' conflict. Calling on Iria's powers, he teleports to the office*
Chotto matte Tatsumi-san ... Enma and the Count are working on a solution ...
Tsuzuki I know you can hear me. We're coming for you ... just fight Li!!!
Don't hurt Tsuzuki-san, don't hurt Tatsumi-san!
*dark glare and raises ofuda* He's happy to die as long as he doesn't cause his friends any more pain ... and you will honor that wish? Heh, this gives a new definition to the phrase, 'I will do anything for you.' Love is so sickening.
I'm ready when you are, Shadow-master.
not good, not good!!
*pushes his glasses back*
As I said before, I care deeply for Tsuzuki-san. But, I do know that he is suffering whilst you wreak wanton havoc with his appearence. I saw him in your mind. I do not like seeing HIM suffer.
*shadows dance at his feet menacingly*
As long as he is happy.....I will do anything.
Shall we commence? Tatsumi
*stares in shock for a moment, then gets to his feet, wiping blood away from his mouth*
Damn. And I thought I had you .... *draws out ofuda* but what do you plan to do? Are you really willing to kill me ... while I'm in this body?
dilemma ....
I know ^__^
Tatsumi uses the shadows to blast Tsuzuki away in a sudden display of force.
Tsuzuki is blown away and lands against the wall.
The shadow master calmly holds the knife's handle and pulls it out from his bleeding abdomen.
That kiss certainly gave things away, oni. I am impressed by your concealing magic though. I could only detect your presence at the last minute, when you....kissed me. Tatsumi
*smiles softly and closes his eyes. Standing up on tiptoes, he very gently kisses Tatsumi's lips*
There's only one problem, Tatsumi ....
*From the back of his jacket, the knife comes out again. It gets sheathed painfully into Tatsumi's stomach*
....... I'm not your Tsuzuki-san.
*evil laughter*
I am.
Tatsumi hugs Tsuzuki closely.
Don't cry again. You know it pains me to see you sad. Tatsumi
You're really telling the truth this time?
....... who's in control now?
Tsuzuki-san.....?Tatsumi is confused
*stares for a long time*
You're not lying?
........ now what the devil is he up to?
Silence.
Internal angst/conflict
"................."
"................."
".... Tatsumi ...."
"Oh, SHUT UP!! GAH!! Soppy, sugar-coated sweetness ... it's sickening!!"
Tatsumi is really in a bind now.......
Um...ah, I do love and care for you, Tsuzuki.... Tatsumi
Internal angst/conflict
"STOP THIS!!"
"Why should I? Just watch him; he looks like he just saw Despair. Besides .... how come you're not fighting me if you want me to stop so badly?"
"I --"
"Do you want to hear his answer too?"
".................."
"I rest my case."
*bitter laugh* I don't know. You're confusing, you know that? One minute you're nice to me, the next you're yelling and being mean to me. I just want to know one thing; do you, or do you not, love me?
Li is a bastard ....
No, I would never hurt you! I wanted only your happiness above anything else!
.......
I see. Is this your way of telling me that you hate me?Tatsumi
Internal conflict
*laughs* "See? Push a little in the right direction and watch the fireworks."
"You ... you ... BASTARD!!!"
"Tch. Such language. I'd thought you'd be happy. I'm not using knives anymore."
So you don't love me. You were lying. You wanted to hurt me.
......... bad bad bad
Tsuzuki-san....!
Tatsumi is very surprised at Tsuzuki's sudden mood swings.
It's true I did do that to you...I believed that I was acting in your best interests. Do you hate me for that? If you did, I would understand..... Uh oh, Tats is going down that path again....
*angry* What do you mean, 'never'?? I spent fifty years thinking you hated me!! What happened to that 'my happiness is your happiness', huh?? Tell me!
...... oh my ....
Tsuzuki-san...I do love you....but.
Not in THAT sense.
I think you're feeling sad right now....you know I would never lie to you... Tatsumi
Hmm? I thought you said you loved me. *eyes going dark* Or were you lying to me ..... again?
oh god .........
Whatever uncertainties he's had now, it is definately at its peak now.
Tatsumi takes his hand away from Tsuzuki's grasp.
What are you doing, Tsuzuki-san?! Tatsumi....?
Internal conflict
"!?!?!?!"
"What, aren't you having fun?"
*smiles* Oh good. *takes hold of the hand patting his hair and kisses it* Cause I want you to stay with me.
O_O;;;
Tatsumi is unsure.....his emotions are mixed up right now....
Um, no...I'm not going if you want me to stay...*pats Tsuzuki's head* Tatsumi
*sighs and leans his head on Tatsumi's hand* I don't know. It's just .... I feel lonely.
You're not going to go anywhere, are you?
..... can this guy stick to one tactic?
ah.....
Tsuzuki-san, are you all right? You seem to be......not yourself today... Tatsumi
.
Internal conflict
*eyes bugging out* "What the HELL are you doing?!?!?!"
*smirk* "Playing head games. Blue Eyes seems like the kind of man who'd break if you push the right buttons."
"Tatsumi wouldn't do that!"
"Are you sure? When it comes to you he is quite unstable. What, don't you believe me?"
"NO!!"
"Very well then. I'll prove it."
*sidles closer, still holding onto his hand* Do you really?
..... Definitely NOT Tsuzuki!!
Tatsumi is VERY startled.
Um...ah! Of course, I do...everyone loves you. Tatsumi
*Tsuzuki looks up at Tatsumi. There is an evil glint in his eye. He reaches up to take the hanky ... and ends up taking Tatsumi's hand instead*
Do you love me?
............ uh oh
Oh my....*is worried* You've had a terrible day today, didn't you? *pained look*
Please Tsuzuki-san....don't cry. I'm sure everyone didn't mean their harsh words to you. You do get....in the way at times. But, everyone loves you.
*offers Tsuzuki his hanky* Tatsumi, NO!!!
*looks up pitifully at Tatsumi*
T-Tatsumi? *sniffles and rubs his eyes* I feel terrible. Watari yelled at me for breaking his test-tubes this morning - I was only trying to help!! And then the Gushoushin kicked me out of the library when I was trying to get a book, then when I asked Hisoka to get it he snapped at me and said I was an idiot *cries* The China Doll said bad things about my cooking, Kacho told me to get out of his office, Terazuma whacked me for talking to Wakaba-chan who said that I was a nuisance and Saya and Yuma told me to stop annoying them ...... *breaks into tears* Everyone hates me!!!
Tsuzuki poor darling
Tsuzuki-san....?
Tatsumi takes a few steps towards the crying figure but....
he stops a feet away from him. Tatsumi has a hesitant look on his face.
Tsuzuki-san, what happened? Why are you crying? Is it because of something that I did? Tatsumi
*Sitting curled in a chair in the corner of the room, Tsuzuki is crying. There's lots of the shadows in the room, and it makes him look even more pitiful.*
.... *sniffles* nobody likes me .... *sobs*
Poor 'Tsu-chan'
??
His curiosity piqued, Tatsumi checks out the source of the sniffles.Tatsumi
There is the sound of sniffling from the next room ....
Tatsumi makes it into the office. It seems that he has been away on official matters and is unaware of the danger that looms over the shinigamis.
The Gushoushin-tachi informs him of Hisoka's sudden departure.
Tatsumi thinks. "This is strange....I do not know why but I feel an ill wind about to blow over us soon."
Neither did he know how correct his words were. Tatsumi
