Sekito X Okami

Running up the path to the mountain, I could feel my heart beating up and almost out of my chest. I slowed to a stop to catch my breath with my left hand over my heart. I let out a big, loud sigh to try to control my breath when I heard Keitaro's voice close behind.

"Sekito! Come on ... Sl-slow down ... Wait for me!" He shouted between breaths.

I sighed, finally gaining control over my breath,"If you can't keep up, then don't try! You'll end up killing yourself!" I took off again toward the mountains.

I slowed to a stop once at the foot of the mountain, not out of breath, but tried of running. 'Guess I better wait for Keitaro,' I thought. 'If he can't keep up, he shouldn't bother anyways!' At that thought, I sat down in the dirt, in my pale blue yukata. After a while, I grew bored, thinking Keitaro, most likely, gave up, and went home to play with Arata. I laid my silver, white hair on the dirt of the ground. I closed my dark brown eyes, and fell asleep to sound of the wind in the green of the trees at the edge of the mountain, which I was in between (the foot of the mountain and the trees). I don't know for how long I slept, but I woke up to the yelling of boys.

I moaned, and sat up in my newly dirty yukata with the dark purple sash, scratching my, not so silver, white hair. I stood in a daze, and my hair fell down my shoulders, barely, and I looked around. I heard more yelling, so I looked up. Sure enough, I saw demon boys around my age. I sighed,'Can't even sleep without someone yelling to wake me ...' I ran up the mountain's path up to the demons, hiding.

The demons boys were in a tight, circle shape yelling and laughing. I gasped,'Wonder what's so cool in there ...' I tried to peer into the group of boys, but failed. Then I noticed something. I noticed they all had the some kind of clothes on, fur, metal, and cloth. 'A bit to stuck to one outfit, huh?' At that thought, I heard a yelp. I perked up, and looked around to find who let out such a scared sound. I heard another, and found it in the middle of the cycle shape. 'Great!' I thought.

I moaned a little at the thought of having to fight with a sleepy mind. I stepped out from my hiding spot, and climbed up a tree so I can jump into the middle of the circle. I got up to the highest branch that could support my weight, then I jumped into the circle, in front of a boy who had his fist really to punch. I turned, and looked behind me to see a boy with short amber hair, aqua eyes, and fur on him like the others. The little demon boy was skinnier, shorter, and was crying.

"What do you think your doing, huh?" I said, looking back at the fisted demon.

"What do you think, huh, Doggy? Beating up a wimp!" Shouted a boy behind me.

"Doggy? Oh no. I may be dog demon, but I'm no doggy. Now ..."I said, getting mad, and tripped the fisted demon,"At least fight someone your own size!"

The little demon boy behind me tugged on my yukata sleeve,"Don't ... They'll just hurt you ..."

I smirked at that comment,"Baka! You think some little demon boy going to beat me?" At the end of my sentence, the demon I tripped, tried to take a cheap shot, and I caught it. He let out a gasp, and with that I smirked and flipped him onto some of the demons to my left. The demon I throw knocked the others to the ground. I spat on them,"You done yet?"

The others started to run away at the site of the demons I knocked down,'Gotta say, pity fights with Arata really help you,' I thought while looking at them running away. The demons on the ground started to get up and run away as well. I let out a huff,"AND DON'T BE HURTING HIM AGAIN YOU DEMONS!"

I smiled happily, and turned to the little demon."Why did you do that?!"He started to yell at me,"Baka! What if they start to pick on yo-"

I cut him off,"I just beat their flee-bitten butts!"

"But!" He started.

I smiled, and patted his amber hair,"It'll be okay! I'll protect you ... umm"

"Okami."

"Yeah! Okami! I'm Sekito" He grinned at me, and I smiled grow into a laugh,"Hey, I like you Okami. Wanna be friends?"

He blushed, rubbing his aqua eyes, and nodded.

"Hey! Sekito! Watch where your going!" Yelled my younger twin brother, Arata.

I snapped out of my day dream and tripped over a fallen tree, and hit the cold, hard ground. I groaned,"Could you have stopped me?!" I sat up, rubbing my head.

"Enough you two! Come on! Gotta keep going so we can be back home before nightfall!" Yelled my father who was ahead of me and Arata.

I stood up, and me and Arata started to run after our father and mother.
