The girl holds the blade closer to her chest. She relaxes her grip on the sword as he watches. She turns her head slightly to the side and looks away, as if embarrassed. Slowly, but deliberately, she closes her eyes in surrender. The girl shivers slightly, as if in anticipation.

"Who... w-what..." he mumbles.

This is wrong. What is wrong with him? What is he thinking? What the hell is he doing?

He needs to get away from this girl. Too dangerous. This is too dangerous for her. He doesn't know what he might do next if he stays even a moment longer. Hurt her. No matter what happens, he can't hurt this girl. He can't trust himself with her. Leave now. He must leave right now. He abrubtly pulls away from her and runs out toward the door.

In a few quick strides, he steps out of the room. He turns to the left and starts running at full speed. He isn't sure where he is going. His vision is blurred by something. Sweat? Blood? Tears? He can't tell as he continues rushing forward. It doesn't matter. He has to flee. But what is he fleeing from? Who is he afraid of? What is he running from?

"Youmu? Is it lunch time yet~"

Without warning, someone steps out of a room. He barely manages to stop in front of the figure. Dressed in a blue and white kimono and a strange cloth hat, this person seems familiar. She brushes at her short wavy hair as she looks at him, mildly surprised.

"Ara? Where are you going, Vincent?" she asks curiously.

Vincent. He has heard that name before. He opens his mouth, but there are too many questions. His headache gets worse as he tries to remember. But this time, he struggles. He has to remember. He crumples down on his knees as he feels like his head is splitting apart. No, not this time! He must remember. Remember. Remember who he is. This name - is it his name? No, he was called something else before. Something else. His vision continues blurring as the pain escalates. He will lose consciousness soon if this continues. He must fight it and remember. His name is...

Suddenly, he can feel someone embrace him. He can feel something deliciously soft press against his chest. He tries to pull away, but this person tightens her grip, unashamed. Flowers? He can smell flowers. Somehow, this scent is familiar. This makes him feels safe. He closes his eyes and slowly relaxes in this person's arms. He loses track of time as he lies there with her.

"It's alright now," she whispers softly.

Her sweet voice calms his mind and heart. Slowly, he feels like some heavy curse is being broken. The pain is subsiding. His vision is clearing. He is starting to remember...

"Yu -"

She holds him tighter. The pain has completely left him now. His mind is still in shambles, but he continues to struggle. He can almost...

"Yu-Yuyuko?" he manages.
