Ch. 4: Feathers
*Kyo's P.O.V.*
Finally, school was over and now I can go home.
"Yeah, go home and start thinking about your stupidity of today." I glared at Ku, who was flying with his small wings next to me, giving me a look I did not like one bit.
"Hey! What have I told you about calling me stupid? You know I hate that!" I scolded him, pointing an angry finger at him.
"All the more reason for me to insult you." And now he was giving me that smartass look. Irritating little thing… "I may be irritating, but I at least help you in reaching your goal on getting out of this place." He does have a point… but still, hate how he can read into my mind like that and also talk in my head.
"Yeah, yeah." I sighed, folding my arms back behind my head, looking forward, almost reaching the apartment I live in.
"Speaking of which, maybe we should track down that soul you already failed to capture this morning."
"Nah, I'm too tired." I yawned loudly, emphasizing how exhausted I was from today.
"Too tired? From what!"
"School, obviously. It tires me out."
"You barely did anything today!" he argued, making me roll my eyes.
"Hey, it takes a lot of energy doing nothing." I advised him, but suddenly, he bit down on my ear. "Ku!"
"Let's go, Kyo!" he started tugging, but I tried my best to resist, despite how much pain I felt in my ear.
"Nooo! I don't want to, and what have I told you about biting my ear? Gahh!" after a long struggle, he finally let go but I could tell he wasn't happy, but neither was I, so we were even. I rubbed my ear, groaning a little in pain. "Damn, you're an annoying little demon from hell." I muttered under my breath. Suddenly, I felt weight on top of my head. "Are you sitting on my head?"
"Yup. I got tired of floating around." Ugh…
"You're lucky I find this somewhat adorable and that you're my pet." I told him. Surprisingly, he didn't respond to that, meaning he must be tired as well. He just didn't want to admit it.
I finally reached the small apartment I lived in while staying in this world. I jumped up on the wall, and started walking up to the window of my apartment room. With a simple tap, I unlocked the window, opening it up and sliding inside. Exhausted from today's events, I flopped down on the bed, tuning out the complaints from Ku when he fell off my head, quickly falling asleep.
"Kyo! Kyo, hey! Kyo!" my eyes tiredly opened, glancing immediately at the clock. It was almost midnight.
"What do you want Ku?" I groaned, rolling over and closing my eyes back, trying to get back to sleep.
"Get up!" I heard Ku growling, which was unusual. I sighed and tiredly sat up, rubbing my eye a little.
"What's with you tonight? Why are you-" his growling only became louder. I looked over at him and his fur was up, his face looking angered and bothered by something. "Ku, what's the matter?"
"Music… Singing… I hate it!" I heard him hiss and he suddenly busted out the window, shattering it.
"Ku! That was a brand new window! Damn it!" I forced myself out of bed and jumped out the window, running down the walls of the apartment building. "Ku!" I tried concentrating and listening for his thoughts or any sounds of his movements, but instead, I caught the sound of an amazing voice…
I followed the sound of whoever's voice I was hearing. I had to know who was singing… it was beautiful.
The closer I came to the singing, the brighter things seem to be. It burned my eyes a little, but I saw blurred images of feathers everywhere.
"Kyo! Are you insane?" I was suddenly yanked to the side, realizing I was crouched behind a bundle of bushes. I turn to see Ku, my eye sight clearing up a little… and he got a little bit bigger… Was he going into his full demon form? If so, that's not a good thing…
"Ku, why are you-"
"Shh! If you shut up, we can surprise attack her and kill her on impact." Wait… kill? Her…? What?
I looked up a little, the light blinding me for a second, but as my eyesight somewhat came back into focus, I saw wings. Pure white wings, and a flock of doves and swans flying around. My eyes were burning from all the light, making my vision blurred again, but her voice was putting me too much into a trance…
"Kyo! You idiot!" but I was yanked again, and forced to look away, my eyes falling on Ku again, who strangely keeps getting bigger. "That light will kill your eyes! Literally! We have to kill her now." I stared at him like he was crazy.
"Why? Her voice is beautiful and-"
"Why? Are you stupid!" his growl became louder and he was looking more demonic. "Her voice is not beautiful, it's deafening. She's a bringer of light, descendant from the heavens, a holy biblical creature!" I stared at him, totally clueless of everything he was saying. And I'm assuming my cluelessness annoyed and angered him even more since he let out a loud groan. "Kyo, she's a-" suddenly, the sound of her singing subsided and I heard a loud flapping of wings. The light was also diminishing from the corner of my eye. Both of us looked over and the girl with the beautiful voice was gone. My eyes looked everywhere, but she was nowhere to be seen.
"Damn… she's gone." I muttered quietly to myself.
"She got away! Ughh…" I looked over at Ku, who was back to his normal size, but he was frustrated as ever. "Let's go back to the apartment." He growled and started floating away. I glanced back to where the girl was before getting on my feet and followed Ku back to my apartment. I heard him talking and complaining, but I was barely listening to him. The only thing on my mind was her beautiful singing… My cheeks felt like they were burning up a little, which probably meant I was blushing.
"Kyo! Are you listen- Gah! Get that hideous music out of your head!" Oh, right. I forgot he can listen in on my thoughts. I only started bursting out in laughter, just to confuse the hell out of him, and to irritate him.
On the way, I spotted a large white feather on the ground. Knowing right away that it was from the girl with the beautiful voice, I immediately picked it up and gently put it in my pocket without Ku noticing.
So now, I had a special feather that will always remind me of her…
(end)
A/N: So, yes, Kyo has fallen in love already xD But he doesn't know that he's fallen in love with an angel! He's just too much into a trance from her voice to be as disgusted as Ku, since he is a demon... Just a bit of an odd one. Anyways, please review and tell me what you think of this chapter! Thanks for reading~
