AN: Hey! I've had this idea in my head for a while but I've been doing my GCSE Mocks so I haven't had time to write anything. This is going to be a kinda AU fic basically Miaka doesn't show up. This begins before Genrou was leader but he's still 17. I got some of the spellings out of my manga book so if they're different to what you're used to that's why. One last thing, in previous stories I've been criticised for my spelling which I don't mind because I know I'm bad, but I am from Britain so naturally some of the spellings are going to be different from some one say in America. Well on with the show.
Chapter One
The rain pelted down through out the forest of Mt. Reikaku. Genrou and Kouji galloped up the mountain on their horses in a rush to get out of the downpour that had ceased to stop for some hours.
They were returning to the stronghold after a raid on a wealthy merchant's caravan. Both relatively weighed down with a number of jewels and a few bags of money they were feeling happily satisfied.
As they turned a corner a young child ran out into the road both horses skidded to a halt, the two young men pulling hard on the reigns.
"Hey kid! Watch it!" Kouji yelled.
The Child began to cry loudly leaving two bandits feeling awkward. They both got off the horses and went over to the child. It was a young boy about three or four he had fiery red hair much like Genrou's and bright blue eyes that were presently filled with tears. His clothes were dirty and ragged and it looked like he hadn't had a bath in a while.
The little boy grabbed on to Genrou's trousers, as he got closer
"Help Mummy, Pwease help my mummy," he sobbed in to the bandit's leg.
Genrou tried and failed to shake him off and the child continued to ask them to help his mum.
Kouji sighed and bent down by the kid, might as well help him other wise he would end up outside for longer with some bawling kid.
"Where's ya ma kid" he asked gently.
The little boy pointed off the road into the forest. He shivered and clung to Genrou tighter. Genrou sighed and picked the boy up.
"Come on then, lets get your mum"
The two bandits walked into the Forest following the child's directions. After only a few minutes they spotted what looked like a bundle of rags piled against the tree.
"Mama!" the boy struggled out of Genrou's hold and ran to the bundle.
He shook it but got no response. He looked up at the two men with big round eyes. Genrou muttered a few select curse words and Kouji once again sighed. They bent down by the bundle and pulled the hood off the cloak it was wearing. Underneath it revealed a young girl probably the same age as Genrou it was hard to tell. Her face was covered in grime and she looked feverish.
Kouji Moaned in annoyance and lifted the unconscious girl up.
"Next thing you know we'll be giving money to the poor!" he grumbled, Genrou snorting in agreement.
They walked back through the forest to the horses, Kouji carrying the girl and Genrou pretending to ignore the now happy child bouncing in and out of his legs in what looked like an attempt to trip him up. He growled in frustration and lifted the boy up buy the back of his top and proceeded to carry him like that the duration of the journey.
" We'll ask the boss what to do when we get back" Genrou said as he reluctantly pulled the child up on to his horse.
Kouji nodded in agreement and they continued on there way.
