Loud footsteps can be hear through the hallways as Kida and Mikado rushed to the masters bedroom, turning a sharp corner Kida continued to run while Mikado almost tripped but managed to get himself and followed the blond.
"Ma.. Masaomi! S.. Slow down! "
"I can't! Shizuo needs to know about this! "
"But he pro.. Probably al-" Mikado sighed as he stopped on his tracks but the blond went on ahead and threw all his weight to the door as he was about to push it open, but before he could even touch the handle it twisted and the door went open. Kida realizing it didn't stop as the gravity took over he fell on the floor just in time Shizuo side stepped to let him fall which he did in a loud thump.
"The kid is fucking back.. "
Shizuo sneered, and walked pass the lying blond and Mikado rushed to help Kida.
"I told you he already knew that " Mikado sighed and Kida bounced back on his feet as he trotted towards where the blond went. Stopping shortly he saw Shizuo on the balcony of the second floor and he stood beside him, looking down to see the same raven haired male that was once here yesterday.
"He is back?" Kida murmured and glanced at the demon who didn't say anything yet. "I thought it was another human but it was still the same brat. What are we gonna do? " before Kida could even follow up some more questions Shizuo leaped down and once he landed on the first floor with a loud thud.
A beast was standing once again in Izaya's front as he growled but this time Izaya didn't move he was startled yes but he wasn't scared anymore, in fact he was looking at the beast with the utmost interest perhaps his eyes were sparkling now. Izaya stood still even if the beast started to growl on him and continued to advance.
"I warned you before! Why did you return! "
The beast snarled and Izaya blinked as he listened to the growl coming from the creature and of course he slipped his mask of a frighten human. Clenching his fist at the bag of baked cookies he gulped and looked up at the creature. Taking a deep breath he licked the bottom of his lips as he faked a small shiver. "I.. I got curious.." which is true, and besides that is a part of a human nature even though he sees himself above them he needs to act accordingly.
"I'm sorry I know im not supposed to be here but i just.. Could not help.." he murmured and took a step back as the beast growled taking a step towards him. "Also! I was ... Thinking that maybe i could get my tools and drawing book, it's really important to me.. I just can't sit still without the last memory of my parents.."
Lies..
He was trying the sympathetic approach. If this wont work then he will try to bargain with the beast, he was about to say something when he saw how the glaring eyes turned soft for a moment and he internally smirked as he knew what way to approach this monster. Suddenly Izaya had to cover his eyes as smoke surrounded the beast and he backed away starring as the form slowly morph. Squinting he tried to make out the details, as the smoke cleared out instead of seeing the beast he saw a form of a human.
Wait...
A human?
Rubbing his eyes he looked at the approaching person and it struck him. He was facing the beast who turned into a human form, golden wild locks on his head. A tall and slender man, probably around his 20's Izaya could only guess and those amber shade irises, refined jaw a perfect guy every woman could think of. But wait.. Where the hell did he get those clothes?! He was sure the person were naked just earlier but he was wearing a black robe now. "Wha.."
"Shizuo! Why did you turn in front of him! Are you insane!" a smaller blond teen approached the blond as he panted, Izaya figured he might have got him his robes, it was surprising for izaya to know there are teens probably a bit younger than him was living with this beast. Could it be that they are also monsters in a human form?
"I just want this to be over with" the blond.. The taller one hissed and Izaya heard the same voice that had threaten him just earlier. The blond which Izaya assumed is Shizuo stomped towards him and he stood still even when the blond fisted the front of his yukata and raised him up to his eye level, izaya practically being lifted up the ground Shizuo snarled at him.
" Listen brat, ill give you your things back, in return you will leave this place and never come back or else i will kill you!"
Izaya blinked, biting his lips as he as tried not to smirk in amusement but it failed, Shizuo practically saw that smirk crawled on the raven's features and he growled gripping his yukata tighter. "what the hell are you smiling off bastard!"
"No..no! Its just i really don't believe you will kill me"
"what!?"
"Shizuo calm down" Mikado said in a small voice as he gripped the blond's sleeves and looked up to him with pleading eyes and as always did the spell. Shizuo pushed the younger male away as he huffed angrily. Eyeing Izaya fron head to toe, damn he looks so much like Sakuraya and he hated it, something is off with the kid and he knew it, he can feel the malice and this human is a bad news. Blinking he pointed at the cloth bag that Izaya had and frowned " What's that?".
"Oh! Baked cookies! I got them on the way here" Izaya unwrapped the cloth and held the food for them to see. The aroma of cinnamon and some butter hit the air and the trio in the mansion stared at it with awe. "I was..." Izaya blinked and looked at the cookies "you can have it if you want"
"We dont need your food! You are someone dangerous! A human" Shizuo snapped despite eyeing the food like a hungry animal.
" Oh! No i did not poison it if thats what you mean" to prove his point Izaya took a bite of it and smiled " See.. No harm d- wah!" flinching Izaya looked at Kida who grabbed the bag and started to eat handing one to Mikado and Shizuo started to dig in as well.
"Uh.."
"ah.. Sorry well you see.. Whats your name?" Kida asked as he munched the food with a purr.
"Orihara.. Izaya"
"You see Izaya.. We havent had a decent food to eat since like around almost a hundred years or something so thank for these anyways"
Izaya raised a brow as he looked at the three and in an instant the cookies were gone and Shizuo cleared his throat as he went upstairs. " follow me" he gestured to the raven as he went towards his room.
Izaya followed silently as he observed the place and blinked. The room was huge and clearly it was forgotten by time the wallpapers and paintings are ripped off by what looks like claws, the curtain is on the same state as well. It seems that the room was once beutiful and Izaya can see traces of what it was once.
"here!" Shizuo tossed the pad and the bag of pencils and brushes on the floor. Izaya mentally frowned at that and slowly picked up his things and smiled "Thanks" he murmured as he followed the blond out of his room and back to the hallways.
" Now you got your things i hope you dont return or else im really going to kill you"
Izaya just stared at him and smiled as he made his way out and smirked " I dont think so" he murmured to himself as he returned to the village. A smile painted on his face as he greeted the towns people before spotting a ash grey head cowering on the corner of the well filling his bucket with water.
"Tsukumoya-kun!"
Said teen turned to Izaya who blinked at the sight of the smiling mask that the other wore. "Are you happy today? Your mask is smiling could it be you are conveying your emotions through them since you dont show your face?"
"Not really... You see I am quite having a problem here.. I dropped my hat on the well" he looked down at the well with a tilt of his head and Izaya did the same as he peeked down and frowned.
"I see nothing"
"Its there but you cant see it.. Sometimes there are things that is meant not to seen" he murmured and looked at Izaya.
" What are you implying?"
"oh? Am i implying something?" he returned on to look at the well and shrugged "Just stating things.. Idioms.. Elders in the town used to say that around right?" he tapped his mask as he hummed "what was it again?.. Ah!
There are sights that are not meant to be seen..
There are voices that are not meant to be heard..
There are s-"
"Stories that are not meant to be told..
Places that are not meant to be found
and a history that are meant to be forever lost.. Yeah yeah... What about it?" Izaya continued as he looked at the other boy waiting for some answer as he crossed his arms.
" Are you perhaps following these? Or have you seen something... Heard something or perhaps found something that are not meant to be found?"
"What are you.."
"There is a history that are meant to be forever lost... Dont cross the line... Or you will be lost along with it" with that said the mask teen left and Izaya frowned as he looked at his retreating back, Tsukumoya always acts like he knew everything and Izaya hated that about him, he should be the one who knows about everything. Now he must find out this History that are meant to be forgotten, history is supposed to be relived, discovered not forgotten. Shaking his head he headed back to his own small cot to rest.
"Tomorrow is another interesting day~"
