Early in the morning, little Rin woke up from a nice dream. But being a little boy, he, of course, couldn't remember the dream, only that it had been good. He stretched his little body, giving a light yawn before he bolted out of the bed like he had been awake for several hours, with the large coal tar in his hand. With that, he ran over to the bed where Ryuuji were laying and tried to bolt him awake.

"Wake up! Wake up! I'm hungry!" he whined while he shook the large body. Ryuuji groaned and opened an eye while he looked over at little Rin, trying to focus.

"What time is it?" Ryuuji asked and sat up after little Rin let go of him.

"Dunno, but I'm hungry. And thirsty. I'm hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry..!" he repeated, stamping his foot with every each word. Ryuuji groaned while rubbing his eye, glaring at Rin through his bangs.

"Alright, I got it already! I'll be there, ya just go on ahead, Okumura." he said with a deep irritated sigh and watched Rin take off in a small dance.

"What an annoyin' kid... if he wasn't annoyin' b'fore, he sure as hell is now." the teen mumbled to himself, yawning deeply while he scratched his chest. With that, he threw the blanket away and took a hairband he had laid beside the bed the night before and putted it on. With the new accessory, he were now able to see.

Ryuuji rubbed both of his eyes, the sleep still not wearing off. He figured that if he were so tired, then it must be before five thirty. How much, he weren't sure until he had a look at a clock.

With a groan, Ryuuji moved his legs to the side of the bed, planting them on the floor before rising and headed for the kitchen where he knew little Rin would be at. But when he arrived, he saw no little boy running around with a swinging tail. No one. He was all alone.

"Where did that little runt run off to?" Ryuuji asked himself with a groan and turned around in order to find the little half-demon.

"Yo! Okumura! Where're ya? Okumura!" he called out while searching for the little boy. He was growing a little worried as time passed by. Not really much about little Rin's security, but more about the stuff he could break. If a fifteen year old with powerful strength could cause trouble with the smallest of things, what couldn't a five year old Okumura Rin do? Cause the end of the world, Ryuuji thought. It wouldn't surprise him if it did happen.

"Okumura! Get yer ass out here now!" Ryuuji bellowed for the hundred of times, but still no sign of little Rin.

"Suguro-kun..." a low, deadly voice called out to him. Ryuuji stiffened by the darkness in the voice and thought it was a demon there had come to attack him because of his yelling, but when he turned around, he only saw Yukio out of his bed... not looking so well.

"Ah, Okumura-sensei. G-G'morning." Ryuuji greeted with a small bow, looking around in the area. "Have ya seen yer brother? I told him ta go down ta the kitchen, but he's not-urgh!" the brunet'n'blond tried to explain, but a hand at his throat stopped him. With widened eyes, Ryuuji looked at Yukio there look really pissed off right now. And because Yukio didn't seem to have gotten proper sleep last night, he looked like a dead man there walked around. Ryuuji visibly paled and would have sank down to the floor, if possible.

"May I ask..." Yukio said slowly, as if he would snap if he spoke differently. "Why are you out and about at four in the morning and yelling while I'm asleep? You do know I can kill you and make it look like it was a demon's doing, don't you?"

"Y-Yes, 'f course, O-Okumura-sensei." Ryuuji answered and swallowed a sudden lump in his throat. "I-I'll make sure it won't happen again! I promise."

Yukio looked at him, as if deciphering whether Ryuuji was lying or not. After a while, Yukio let go, still looking at the brunet'n'blond with doubtful eyes and turned for the door, still keeping an eye out for Ryuuji. The brunet'n'blond stood still, too intimidated to move an inch.

"You better remember it." Yukio warned, pointing at him.

"'F course!" Ryuuji quickly said, nodding repeatedly. With that, Yukio returned to his room, but not without smacking with the door. Ryuuji let out a breath he didn't know he was holding and instantly calmed down.

"Phew." he said to himself. "That was too close." Scowling, he turned around and went off to look for the small Okumura child.
