Looking Through the Battlefield

"They are not paired," my father told me."And might I ask how I'm supposed to find them within the battlefield you have created?""I told you not to look for them in the first place,""Kaname and Kami both are on the battlefield, they've been there since our 10th birthday. Father, it's obvious they don't like me and you are never around either, I have a half-sibling somewhere in this city and I will find them. I at least want to know what they look like, Father please, I need more to go on." I plead with my father, hoping that this time he'll let me know something about my half-sibling."Don't tell the brat anything, she's already abandoned us on the battlefield, wouldn't want her to abandon the family too now would we?" Kami says leaning on the doorframe, I turn around

"Why would you want to see her now of all times," Father looks at me suspiciously. "Do I need a reason to see my mother now? If you need one, I was talking to Gem and she thought I could use some time away,""Gem suggested this?" Father said raising an eyebrow. "Yes, I'll be at mother's place for a while, I'm going to pack my bags," I said as I walked out of my Father's study."Karma wait I-" I closed the door behind me as Kaname tried to speak to me.The next morning, Gem had told me since my mother isn't paired, she should live in a city made for people without pairings. The city is protected by a thin layer of material that will either cancel or drastically reduce powers and the city is miles away from where I'm living with Father. Gem also says that he refuses to go near there so I'll have to rely on my portals."When you try to get there, your portal might send you somewhere else or you can't pass through them. For you to ge

"Shoot," Kaname looks back up at me."Does Kami know anything about our brother?""I'd hope not,""What do you mean by that?""Kami is...how should I put this" Kaname leans back but doesn't close his eyes."A hothead?" I finish his sentence."Well yeah but in this case, I would say unpredictable. Remember when Father first told us about him?""Yeah, Mom cried for hours," The memory of my devasted mother flashed through my mind. I couldn't even imagine the pain she felt."Yeah, I remember that too but do you remember what Kami said? Think about that for a bit."I tried to remember what Kami's words were but all I could remember was my Mother's sobs."Uh, Kaname?""She said another obstacle" Kaname sat up "At 10 years old, Kami had thought about us as nothing more than obstacles.""She really said that about him?""Yes, Father was taken aback at her statement but he ignored it to tend to Mom. Th

The next morning, I wake up and get ready to help mom at Father's business. Father owns one of the biggest shopping malls in the world, as well as the only shinigami company in the world. Father is paired with the God of death so he can freely communicate with other shinigami easily. Mom is a spiritualist but can't really communicate with shinigami well, which is why she wants us to help. Kaname and I can freely see and speak with shinigami, making the job easy for us. Sometimes people can't see their own shinigami so they would come to the shop and see if they have one."Karma are you ready?" Kaname says knocking on my door."Yea you can come in," I said pulling a sweater over my head. "Karma what are you wearing?" Kaname gives me a look of disappointment."What's wrong with it?" I said looking in the mirror, "Is it the jeans? I knew it, should've gone with the black ones,""You can't wear an oversized hoodie, wait is that mine?""May

"Rei, what are you doing here?" I said surprised but happy to see Rei. Rei is a childhood friend of Kaname, Kami, and me. We grew up together since her father and my father were best friends, she also joined the war with us and her older brother but within the first year of the war, she lost her brother and became distant from the 3 of us.  "I could ask you the same thing Karma, office work is never you're thing" "That is so true but my mom needed help so here I am. Why are you here?" "I think I lost my power on the battlefield yesterday so I decided to come here to see if Yuko is still hanging around me. Do you see him?" "Sorry Rei, I don't," I said looking around Rei, who looks depressed. "Thought so," she sighs, "Well at least I get to go home I guess," "Rei, if I can ask how did you lose Yuko?" "We were fighting against a QP, when I was hit with a shining orb. When it was approaching I tried to run but it was like it w
