PARENTS, part I

xxxxxx

"Rai, what do your parents do for a living?"
Crimson eyes slowly moved to gaze upon the owner of the voice, Han Shinwoo. Raizel narrowed his eyes slightly as he pondered on what to answer. Parents. To be completely honest with himself he did not seem to recall having any parents but he must have had them at some point. Right? "What kind of question is that, Shinwoo?" The voice belonged to Ik-Han but the Noblesse was still focusing on the red-haired male. Raizel could feel the concerned stare from Frankenstein, which was what made him snap out of his thoughts in the end and refocus on the humans in front of him, as they were now bickering about the question that Shinwoo had asked minutes ago. While waiting for the children to end the argument he simply took a small sip from his tea, it was getting cold, before silently placing it back on its plate. "I assume my parents died long ago, I seem to have no memories of them." All beings had a mother and a father, perhaps not alive but at some point, there would have had to be two beings of different gender to make new life. Although a bit naïve, he was not ignorant as to how the nature worked. It was only a natural part of life at some point. Perhaps he was simply too old to remember them, he was certainly too old to seem to remember if he had ever played a game during his childhood. Had he even had a childhood? The protector of the Nobles drifted off to his own thoughts again shortly after answering the question. His memories were so faded and many he knew he had simply forgotten out of will.

His words had silenced the whole room. The four children as well as the two Nobles and the three enchanted humans were now staring at him, and the room slowly filled with uncomfortable silence. Raizel himself did not seem to take any notice but his servant furrowed his brows and took a step closer to his Master in hopes of being able to salvage the situation. The children on the other hand, reacted faster than he did. "I'm so sorry, Rai, for asking. I didn't mean to dig up anything bad..." The headmaster glanced at his student and could not help but smile a little. He was a very considerate student, perhaps an idiot but a good-hearted idiot at that. "Yeah, we just wanted to know a little more about you." This time it was Yuna who spoke and the others nodded in agreement soon after. The Noblesse could not help a small smile as he studied the humans in front of him, somewhat amazed with their ability to feel sincere sorrow for his own apparent loss. A loss he himself could not remember if he had ever been through. Humans were truly beings worthy his curiosity.

A/N
So.
This is the first chapter out of who knows how many (ahahah). I feel that it's still lacking loads of things but I guess that for a first try this is somewhat .. decent? I will take a second look on it another day so there might be some change in this chapter. I will also make it considerably longer ^^''

Next up is "Love", and here's a little preview;

"Rai, have you ever been in love?" Love. The Noblesse stared a bit confused at the young human before narrowing his eyes in thought. Love. Emotions concerning another being. Warm feelings. Correct? No. Yes. Frankenstein had mentioned this for him once before, when one of the students in his class had confessed to him and he had (unintentionally) made her cry by not understanding anything that happened. Love was complicated, like many other feelings. However, being in love, what did that mean again?
