No.6 - Chapter 1 - Shion x Nezumi - A Love that could last a lifetime.

Shion and Nezumi were out taking a walk through town, It was a sunny day but that didn't help with the depressing mood that went around like usual. Shion was his usually dense self so he didn't seem to notice, but Neumi had noticed the strange way that everyone else seemed to be acting; it had him really on edge. After being around them all for too long Nezumi was just really not enjoying himself and felt he needed to get Shion back to their house as soon as possible, but with how crowded the streets were and how slowly Shion was walking Nezumi didn't expect them to be making it home anytime soon.

Nezumi growled and then complained, "Shion hurry up; we don't need to be taking this long."

Shion muttered as he glanced back at Nezumi who was walking really up close behind him, "Why are you in a rush today?"

Nezumi sighed as he put his arms out and was just about to push SHion to make him go faster, "Just hurry up already..."

Bang. Bang. Bang.

Shion stopped in place as his head snapped around, he looked for where the noise had come from, "Nezumi, What was that?"

Nezumi grabbed Shion's arm, "Hurry! Come over here!"

Nezumi put his cloak around Shion and made sure that it was covering all parts of his body. He started to run as he pulled Shion quickly behind him. He was going so fast that Shion was being dragged gracelessly along behind Nezumi.

Shion whispered after a minute or so of being pulled along, "Nezumi Stop! Ow you're hurting me! Why are we running?"

Nezumi answered so quietly that Shion almost didn't hear him, "Because someone shot at us!"

Shion's face instantly flashes with worry, "Then shouldn't you have your cloak?"

Nezumi didn't even glance at Shion as he responded, "No. If I get shot it's not a big deal."

Shion spoke back a little too loudly, "Yes it is!"

Nezumi looked back but only for a second, "Just shut up and run!"

Suddenly the people who were shooting at them came out from their hiding spots, there were three men and the one in the middle had a gun. When Nezumi glanced back and saw them he quickly pushed Shion down to the side for safety. They pointed the gun straight at Nezumi and pulled the trigger. Shion noticed fast enough and in the small amount of time he had not thinking he dropped the microfiber robe and jumped in front of Nezumi.

BANG

Nezumi yelled, "SHION!"

Nezumi quickly leaned down and grabbed Shion's shoulder as the other sat up the best he could and grabbed at his arm in pain. Nezumi saw where the bullet hit and was instantly relieved.

Shion winced in pain and muttered, "I'm fine! Go and get the gun!"

Nezumi looked at his arm, "But ..."

Shion glanced up at him clearly in pain, "Just go and get the gun before one of us gets shot again!"

Nezumi quickly ran in the direction of their attackers, before the men could do anything he had disarmed the one in the middle. The gun flew over to where Shion was still sitting; he quickly picked up the gun and threw it back over to Nezumi. Right as he had let go of the gun the man reached from the other side and grabbed his injured arm yanking him up on to his feet with it.

Shion cried out in pain as the man yanked him around, "Owww! Stop!"

The man pulled Shion up and took a switchblade from his pocket; he held it to Shion's neck.

Nezumi screamed, "Shion!"

The man threatened Nezumi, "If you don't give that gun to my friend here then your buddy isn't going to be alive for much longer."

BANG.

Nezumi shot instantly, he already knew that even if he gave the man the gun Shion would be dead so he took a chance and after he had aimed fired the gun. The man got hit in the arm and instantly released Shion.

The man screamed in pain, "Owwww!"

Shion kicked the guy that had been holding him and it knocked them both down. Nezumi shot at the three men as they tried to run away he got two of them in the heads and the one behind Shion he hit in the stomach. Shion was covered in their blood as it clocked his body and the ground around him.

Nezumi grabbed Shion's not injured arm, "We've got to go!"

Shion gasped as he noticed the blood all over himself, "Blood... I'm covered in blood!"

Nezumi walked up to a completely shocked and scared Shion, "Shion are you okay? I'm here."

Shion muttered, "It hurts and there's just so much blood."

Just hold on we have to take care of your arm when we get back and then we can get the blood off. They got back and Nezumi instantly got a needle and whatever else he needed to fix Shion's arm. He got some alcohol and dumped it on as the other screamed in pain, the bullet had gone all the way threw and it luckily missed his bone so Nezumi just stitched the two holes up the best her could and then got Shion in the bath. He kept the others arm out of the water as he started to wash the blood out of Shion's snow white hair. Nezumi made sure every drop of blood was off of Shion before he helped him out of the tub.

Shion politely thanked Nezumi as they sat on the bed together, "Thank you Nezumi for getting it off me."

Nezumi stared into Shion's eyes and saw fear which was a rare thing on Shion's face. He could tell that if he left, Shion would probably start crying. Nezumi walked over and stayed there with Shion who had already started shaking. They sat their together on the bed and after a while moved so they were lying down and then slowly drifted to sleep.

When Nezumi woke up the next day Shion was already up making breakfast, his eyes looked different but Nezumi just wrote it off as coming from the pain. Shion looked down at Nezumi when he had moved on the bed where he was just sleeping, and then he just continued to cook. He picked up something in his right arm and Nezumi saw even more pain in his eyes as he winced in pain, but Nezumi didn't move fast enough. Shion dropped what he was holding and clutched his arm; he leaned over as what he had just been holding shattered as it hit the ground.

Shion cried under his breath as he gripped his arm, "Ow! That hurt!"

Nezumi asked in panic as he rushed over, "Shion, are you okay?"

Shion glanced up at his, "I just can't use this arm without it killing me!"

Nezumi helped him away from the glass shards that covered the floor now, "Here let's get you away from the glass, and then how about I finish cooking?"

Shion sat on the bed and Nezumi went over to clean up the mess that had been made, "Er ... okay."

Nezumi finished the cooking and then got washed up before he helped Shion get cleaned up after checking his wound.

Nezumi asked curiously, "Why didn't you wake me up? I could have cooked for you. It's my fault you got hurt. Well … it's about time for your job at dogkeepers. I will help you with it today since..." He pointed to Shion's wounded arm.

Shion smiled as he stood up, "Thanks that's a good idea."

The two got their stuff and then made their way to dogkeepers.
