She put his arm around her shoulder and pulled him up. "Come on, I hear a bed calling your name." She said.
Setsuko sighed and turned to Ikuto. "You okay?"

Ikuto changed back to normal, looking at Setsu and nodded. "Why did he leave?" He asked her.
Leo was still smiling, his heartbeat barely keeping him alive. "Alright then." He said in a weak voice.

She sighed. "Hamacha...He's strange about the way he does things..." she said.
Julia smiled back. "you're a good man, leo."

Leo looked at her and smiled. "What do you mean I'm a good man?" He asked.
"He said something about Leo's power... and he had to talk to 'the others'." Ikuto explained as that was what he heard.

"You just are," She smiled walking into his room and setting him gently down on his bed.
She tensed up then relaxed. "The other demons...I would keep a close watch on him..."

Leo smiled and looked up at Julia. "That means a lot..." He whispered as he looked up at her.
"What would demons what with Leo's power?" Ikuto asked as he walked closer to her.

She hugged him. "I know."
"Exactly what they want with me..." She said, turning back to normal.

Leo blinked for a moment but smiled as he tried his best to hug her back.
"And what do they 'want' with you?" Ikuto asked.

"That's the point. All that they want is power." She sighed. "I'm one of the first people to actually question them, challenge them." Setsu said. "I seem to be a powerful opponent to them, so they want me on their side. So that they can use me." She shook her head. "They turned me into...this...I am my enemy. My worst nightmare. And I hate myself for it. Ikuto, if they got ahold of me, or Leo...." she shivered.

"What would happen?" He asked worried about this.

Her eyes grew dark as she remembered her past. "Ikuto? Have you ever thought there was something strange about Ankoku and Hikari? Besides the fact that they can talk?"

"Well when I'm around them I feel a bit strange..." He whispered back.

"That's because they're not really...cats...Well, they are, but they weren't actually born that way. They were part of my heart. The balanced parts. Like Yin and Yang." She started.

"Well that makes some sense." Ikuto said with a nod.

She sighed. "Well you see, the akuma. They killed my parents. I have been searching for the ones who did it ever since, killing any others that got in my way. So I basically became some sort of demon hunter." She looked up at him, her eyes filled with tears. "You have no idea how much hatred I hold for them, Ikuto...One night, the night I first met Hamacha, he had seen some sort of power in me, even as just a human. He told me that he would be back. Nights later, he appeared to me in a dream. I tried to run, but he caught me. He cast a curse upon me. If it weren't for at least a small bit of purity in my heart, the part of my heart that didn't give up, the part that resisted the tempting darkness he cast upon me, I would probably be an akuma right now..." She looked down at her cats and picked them up. "He created me, the demon me. The artificial me..." She hugged Hikari and Ankoku. "When I woke up I found these two by my side." She said. "Neither of them can die or else the darkness that now covers half of my heart will take over.."

Iktuo didn't know what to say as he stood in front of Setsu, but only pulled her closer and held her in his arms.

Setsuko didn't know what to say either so instead she cried for the first time in a long time.
"You should get some sleep." Julia said.

Leo nodded and closed his eyes. "Alright." He whispered before trying to get to sleep.

After a while setsu pulled away and wiped her eyes. "Thankyou...Ikuto."
Julia gently moved some hair on his forehead to the side, "Goodnight, leo." Then walked out of the room.

Ikuto nodded and handed her cloth he had in his pocket to wipe her tears.
"Goodnight... Julia." He whispered as he slowly drifted away into a peaceful sleep.

Setsu took it and gently wiped her eyes. She looked down. "I'm not supposed to cry..."

"It's okay to cry though..." Ikuto whispered as he picked up her chin and looked into her eyes.

"It shows weakness...." She said, looking away. "Vulnerability..."

"It shows that you're still human..." Ikuto whispered as he looked deeply into her eyes.

She looked into his eyes, searching for something. "Thankyou...." she whispered so low that her voice was barely audible
