(In case you can't tell, This is Leo's POV)

I met Kara today, She was kind of....hard to understand. Looking back at what was said, I am glad she welcomed me. I get this feeling from her, like there's a darkness, dormant for now, yet could arise at any point. I wouldn't say evil, she is very fragile emotionally, but her heart is strong, I can feel it.

I wondered if I could see her, the words she spoke of her not wanting to see me slipped away. I knew where she lived, I was told before I even met her. I rang the bell, and thought how odd it was that it was a manual bell, not an electric one. I heard steps then the squeal of a knob turning. The line of sight clear, Kara wasn't anywhere. Her mother appeared in her stead.

"Hi, is Kara here?"
"No, she left."
"Can you tell me where I can find her?"
Her eyes sparkled with remorse,
She said she was going to Makinovai Cliff, The only reason people go there is to commit suicide."
My heart sank, Kara's Fate starting to burn my thoughts.
"Im going after her! She has to live..."
Without a moment's hesitance, I sprinted. I remembered passing by Makinovai Cliff on my way in.
It took roughly a half-hour, but my act was not in vain. Kara stood at the cliffside, praying for everyone to forget her. As I came within inches, she began her final step. As she began to drop, I grabbed her arm.

Her plummet ceased, and she turned to face me.
"Why are you here? I told you to let me be!"
"I had to, not just me, but your mother too, would have eternal sorrow, had I let you do this. You deserve to live, for a cure to this darkness."
Her mood eased, Her lips formed a warm smile.
"Thank you, Leo, maybe there is a cure. I just never tried looking"


She placed her hand tenderly onto my face. Then we embraced once more.

(Sorry for the unusually long wait,*SPOILER* [spoiler]I had to figure out when to introduce Leo[/spoiler]

I was 13, when I met him. I wasn't sure how to deal with him, but I knew I couldnt Ignore him.

Walking home from school, Something felt Dreadful inside me. I pushed that to the back of my mind, I had a million other things of more importance to worry about. I suddenly started To feel a desire for someone to walk in the empty area around me. I looked down, and clutched my arms, as if to fill the void of not having someone Embrace me.
"Hi."
I jumped, not expecting a voice to ring.
"Hi..."
"Is something wrong? It seems like you miss someone."
"I'm fine."
I couldn't help but smile, as around him, My tense mood eased.
"Im Leo, You must be Kara. I-"
My smile faded and I burst into a fiery Rage.
"How Do you Know my Name? You must be a Stalker! Freak."
"No, You dont get it, Im new here, I asked around, and a lot of people talk about you, apparently"
My Anger fell into a solemn Sadness, and tears began to bead.
"So, its true, They know. They think Im evil. I shouldn't talk to you."
"Why, I dont see a problem with it, even if others hate you."
"You dont Get it! You never will..."
The streams down my cheek became more visible, as my tears were multiplying.
"What, Is it Mood Swings?"
"No, Im leaving everyone behind, so I can no longer harm anyone."
He looked into my eyes with regret.
"Why, You have hurt people?  You seem so gentle and kind."
"I am, but Its not my fault."
My tears were slowing, as I was calmer now.
"But...Wait..If you did it, then its your fault...anyways, Ive never heard anyone say you've hurt someone...I think this is some kind of joke."
My eyes flooded at his disbelief.
"You dont understand! I'll tell you. I was playing basketball, with my best friend, and some thing went wrong, The ball hit her in the spine, and now she cant walk. I just dont want anything worse happening anymore! Someone could Die!!! Its not a joke!! Its a damned curse, I guess bad luck to everyone close to me."
He embraced me, filling the void no one else could. He too, cried, His tears brushing my cheek.
"Im sorry, for everything you must have been through, and you have no say in it."
Although I didnt want to recreate the void he filled, I had to.
I pushed him Forcefully from me, breaking our connection.
"Stop. This isn't good, not for either one of us."
"What?"
"I cant be with you, If you die, Your blood will be on MY hands, I cant live like this."
"How are you still alive?"
"Im sorry, What Did you say? You think I should Die?"
He responded in a small voice, comfortingly.
"No, I mean if it were me, Id be long gone. It takes an Incredibly powerful heart to withstand that much pain."
"Oh, That? Thank you, but you really need to let me be."
"No."
"Seriously! Its not going to happen, Just go flirt with another girl, Im not good for anyone, Just GO!!"
"Ok, Ill go."
He turned around and walked away, the reverberating Stab in my heart was greater than when I paralyzed Julie.

I walked on, and upon getting home, I grasped my Mother, and cried into her blouse.

Anyone Heard of Touhou? I know Trainer Silver has...

Anyway, Touhou is an arcade-style game, and this thread is for Character Discussion and such.

Another Day past, another Dream to see Kara. I felt my mind slip into a floating sea of shadows. A light shone forth.
"Leo, Its me."
"Kara, How've you been?"
"Im great, but I have an urgent subject to bring up. Take a look at the Shard you gave me. Is there any difference?"
"Yeah, I was clear before. Now its...Sapphire Blue. The exact Shade of blue as Layla's Eyes..."
"Exactly, Now look at your Shard, Leo."
"Emerald Green, Just like yours..."
We both looked into the others Eyes, as Kara, then I Smiled.
"I noticed something else too, Kara. They both have that same curve...and they look Precision-Carved."
"Our Spirits shaped them."
"Wait. If we align them so the curves touch, then it looks as though something is meant to fit inside."
Kara reached into her pocket, and pulled out a Silvery marble, shining in many colors.
"This is a Mana Orb, They are common in the spirit world, but extremely rare in the Human World. If one is there, it means an angel or roaming spirit dropped it. Its Aura is literally completely full of magic. If all 3 items were fused to the ring, and Layla put it on, I would live on in her. My thoughts and hers would be apparent to the other, and our voices would blend. Our hair would be wavy, as hers is straight, mine Curly. The eyes, Leo, would be Sapphire blue on top, Emerald Green on the bottom, and there would be a Blend toward The center."
"Ok, I'll do it"
"Its almost time to leave, Everything will stay with you, as I gave it to you. She must be willing, if she isn't, The magic will fail, and I'll be sent back. Wake up now."

It was morning, of course.
"Layla, I had a dream last night, and Kara was physically in it."
"Really, How did it go?"
So I explained to her, about Kara's Wish.
"I dont know, what if I don't like it? Im starting to think you are only going through with this to see Kara."
"No, not just that. I wont have to be alone anymore, wondering about her. She'll be with you, This way, I'll have much more time to be with you, Layla, because I love you. I could have picked anyone, but I chose you. You reminded me so much of Kara, and that couldn't have made you a better person. If you dont like it, you can slip off the ring, and She'll leave."
"Okay, as long as you are Happy, That's all that matters."

So, I went to the jewelers, and the same man who fused one shard to my ring was still there.
I asked, "Hey Renny, can you add more to my ring?"
"Sure, what did you have in mind?"
"I wanted these on it too. The Shards like this, with the ball in the center."
I handed him the other Shard and the Orb.
"Here, Take Care."
"You too, Renny."
I paid for the fusing, then walked home.

"Layla, Here it is."
She Slipped the Ring on her finger, Then recited an incantation.
"I bear this ring as a token of acceptance, I allow a past voice to dwell in me, The spirit of Kara, a friend whose life was severed."
A flash of Green light. Then, exactly as Kara had Described, except Kara was taller. Layla's new form was awoken..
"So....Leo, what do you think?"
"Even though your voices are one, I can tell it was you, Layla. I love it, you look beautiful."
My eyes were filled with joyful tears, I Took hold of Layla, and ran my fingers through her wavy, Jet Black Hair.


"I love you,"
Both Kara and Layla Spoke.
"I love you too..."

Yadda....

(This is based slightly on my past, but is mainly fictitious.)

When I was little, I met a girl, She had long Jet Black Hair, and Emerald Green Eyes. I visited her everyday. Each day her Happiness grew, as I was the only one who knew her. As years went by, She thought much more of me. I was 13 that day, she asked me,
"Do you...Like me?"
She blushed as she said this.
"Of course."
She Leapt with joy, and said,
"I knew you would say yes."
I looked at her, bewildered,
"Why are you this happy? I only said you were a great Friend."
I watched as her head fell,
"Oh."
I could feel her Heart Sinking. The next day, I gave her a present to make up for it.
"Kara, here. I felt sad, that I had to let you down like That. I wanted to make up for it."
Kara opened the box to find a Necklace, at the bottom was a Glass ball, with a tie-dye style pattern blended inside.
"Thanks, I feel a lot better."

4 years had passed, and Kara and I were Nearing Graduation. She had a Boyfriend, whom she'd given the necklace to. She felt like flying with him, but later that night, he had dropped her off at her house. The next morning, I went up to Kara, Tears were streaming down her face.
"Kara! What happened, are you alright?"
She paused, trying to collect herself.
"It's Keith, he...he was texting while Driving, and..."
at this point, she broke down. She clutched me tightly, I almost Cried myself. I pressed my hand against her back, trying to comfort her. In the midst of crying, she managed the Rest out,
"He's gone...by the time I found out, it was over. He died on impact. I found what was left of my necklace."
it was Shattered in two pieces, but only remnants. I took one shard. There wasn't much left. The end of the Day, she left a Note In my Locker, which I read on my way home,
'Im Sorry, I love you, I tried to tell you long ago, not that it matters now. Tomorrow morning, I will be gone too, So I can be with him. I never wanted anything wrong for you, and maybe, if I hadn't met Keith, I wouldn't be writing this. Now that I've told you everything, Take this.

                                                       -Kara.'

At the end was a Glass Shard, from her necklace. I cringed at the fact that she'd written a suicide note, but there wasn't much I could think of. My parents had taken every car, so I ran to her house, It took until near sunrise, but I arrived. She Had a knife in her hand.
"Wait! Don't end this, I love you."
....
"I love you, too."
The knife hit its mark, in her chest, through her heart. She lay on the floor, her blood still flowing out. I ran my fingers through her then Curled hair, weeping.
At the burial, I asked,
"Before you close the coffin, can I add Something?"
They allowed it, and I placed one Shard in her limp grasp, along with a small note:
'My dear Kara, if I had only loved you sooner, then you would have lived longer, but I could never love you more than I did. I gave you a shard, so we will always be together. Your soul will live in the shards. I will never forget you, and watch Keith for me. 

                                                             -Leo'

Regrettably, I found love in a new form, Another girl, Layla. She had Black hair as well, long as Kara's. Her eyes were like Sapphires, as deep as blue could be. She knows of my past, and everything regarding Kara. Thats she sees me sit outside, looking up, she lets me be. Layla Knows that Im missing Kara. She knows that I need to be left there.

She was okay with Kara, and me, wishing it could be different. She knew Kara well, and occasionally, I can see an Emerald Green in Layla's Eyes.


Ive kept the other Shard ever since, I had it fused into a ring, and I will always carry it...
