-Four years later-
"Are you ready, Eien?"
The younger redhead looked up at his Father with dead eyes. He was completely numb and honestly didn't know what he wanted. "Yes," He answered, not caring.
Sasori nodded. "Yoru," He called out and the demon appeared like always, on one knee, ready for any task.
"Yes, my King?"
"You will stay here and wait to be summoned when needed." The demon nodded and Eien felt anger swell up into him. That damned creature was just a pain in his neck, if he even felt any.
-Then-
Eien was in his room, bored out of his mind at only the age of ten. "Yoru!"
There was a strong breeze and the demon appeared as called. "Where would you like to go, my prince?"
Eien glared at the demon. "Take me to the Deep Never Forest."
Yoru's eyes slightly widened before he smirked with a nod. He stood up and picked Eien up before summoning the winds to take them to their destination.
As soon as they got their, Yoru put down his master, knowing he hated being held. They were at the edge of the forest which was forbidden. "Where to now, my prince?"
The redhead scoffed. "Like, I said, into the Forest."
The demon frowned. "You know it's forbidden, my-"
"Of course I know! But I am your master, so do as I say," Eien demanded.
Yoru nodded and followed the redhead as he began to walk into the forest. It was dark, darker than the Underworld City though Eien could still see through it. There were random growls and hisses as they walked and Yoru stayed close to the redhead, ready to protect him if needed. The trees were black as if a fire had swept through but they were not weak and frail, instead the exact opposite.
There was a deep roar and Eien almost thought it sounded like a bark. A giant hell hound broke through the trees, it's fur black and it's eyes red. It bared it's teeth at the intruders and Eien glared back. He didn't mind dogs but hell hounds, he found, were stupid creatures who could barely form a thought for themselves.
Yoru looked at the hound in disgust. "What do you want to do, my young prince?" The hell hound charged before Eien could even open his mouth. It was quicker than he thought and Yoru quickly shoved the redhead behind him before throwing his hand out, a gust of wind sending the beast back. It whimpered before running away. "My prince?"
Eien growled as he shoved his way out a thorn bush. "What was that? Did you normally push your masters into bushes?" Yoru sighed and helped the redhead out who only swatted his hands away. "Do not touch me! I demand you take me back without touching me." Yoru nodded and a wind swept around them. When Eien took in his surroundings once more he was back in his room. "Do not tell my Father about this, demon."
Yoru nodded with a smug smile. "Of course, my young prince."
-There-
But Sasori did find out and Eien was banned from leaving the Palace for six months. The demon may have thought he was doing good for Eien but the redhead thought otherwise; he was only a nuisance.
"Let's go." Sasori put a hand on Eien's shoulder and a vortex swallowed them once more.
-Earth-
Eien gasped as he was finally able to breath. He took in the sensation of the sun and hissed. His senses were on high alert and he didn't have enough time to take it in. The crowd walking by them, their loud voices. He suddenly felt very claustrophobic. He felt someone take his hand and lead him somewhere with less tumult and throng.
Once they got to an alleyway, Sasori kneeled by his Son who was hyperventilating. "Calm down, Eien. Take deep breaths." The thirteen year old was still confused as he tried to take in the once familiar feelings. "Shh," Sasori soothed, holding his son and rubbing his back.
Eien began to cry, too disoriented to do anything else. "M-make it stop," He begged.
Sasori looked at his son's face and put his hands on the side of his head, sending calming waves through his palms, making Eien calm down and take deeper breaths. "There, now it'll take a while to get used to, but don't worry."
The younger redhead nodded, his mind hazy.
"Yoru." Eien shivered when a strong wind came and he curled up closer to his Father.
"Yes, my King?"
Once Eien heard that voice, he felt rage like no other. He looked up and glared with all of his malice at the demon. He shoved his Father away, his eyes turning red. "I did not order you, demon." He could feel his fangs grow and a blue glow began forming over him.
Yoru looked up and gave a small smile at his master. "My King ordered me and I came to-"
Eien didn't even move as his aura snapped out and attacked Yoru. The raven-haired male's eyes widened right before he was struck and he flew into a building.
Sasori saw Eien go for another attack and he covered his eyes. "Calm. Down." He began to seep Eien of his power and Sasori had to control himself from going into a raging fit. How much anger did Eien have in him?! People began to crowd around the demon who just lied down in a pile of rubble. Yoru slowly got up and dusted himself off. He was wearing a black shirt and pants and Sasori wondered if he had stolen them from someone on the way to Earth.
Eien soon fell limp in his Father's arms and Sasori carried him bridal style. "Follow," Sasori said casually to Yoru even though he was far from within hearing distance, he began to follow, ignoring the throng around him.
When Sasori got to his old house in Iwa, he opened the door, Yoru following behind him. "I am sorry that I spoke back, my King." The demon kneeled on the ground, his head down.
Sasori sighed. "Rise. Eien just has a temper and I never really realized how much he didn't like you."
Yoru rose to his feet and gave a small smirk. "The Underworld has been masking his true feelings. It was only a matter of time before he really showed how he really felt about me."
The Devil sighed and went to Eien old room, placing him down on the bed. "He can't handle his emotions at this time but he will soon calm down."
"If I may ask, my King," Yoru said as he followed Sasori. "Why did you call me here?"
Sasori smirked. "I needed to get his mind off of feeling, but I didn't know that he would react so strongly to seeing you."
Yoru nodded, finding it humorous that he was used as something to intentionally get his master angry.
-Awake-
When Eien woke up, everything was much more calm and he sat up in his old bed, giving a yawn as he did so. He looked around and saw the semi-familiar surroundings before giving another yawn. He got out of his bed, realizing he was in normal clothes, not his smoky robe. He left to the kitchen where his Father was looking through papers.
"That was very immature of you, Eien." The younger redhead had no idea what he meant but soon understood when he remembered. He had attacked his demon and he was actually satisfied that he did that. Sasori looked up with a glare, feeling his son's smugness. "You may think it's funny, but you caused an unnecessary scene."
Eien shrugged, not caring. "I hate him and you already knew that."
Sasori stood up and stood in front of Eien. He smacked him upside the head and Eien gave a small curse. "You cannot do things leisurely like you do in the Underworld. You have to have control."
Eien frowned and crossed his arms before looking down. "Alright," He mumbled.
The Devil nodded and went back to the papers. "The plague is almost over, but I still want you to stay inside at all times even when I'm at work."
Eien looked at his Father, surprised. "So I'll be home alone?"
Sasori stared at him. "Of course not, you'll have Yoru."
The younger redhead looked at the Devil in disbelief. "I will not be with him for more than a minute!"
"Too bad. You have to have control and Yoru will help you with that." Sasori stood up and grabbed a hat to cover his red hair. "I'm leaving now. Yoru." Eien wanted to call back that anger that he felt but it was like he never had that power. "I took away your power for the time being," Sasori said, giving a small smile. "It'll be harder for you to try to tear the house down this way."
In a gust of wind Yoru was there. "Yes, my King?"
"Watch after Eien and make sure he doesn't do anything bad. If you harm him though, you will face dire consequences." Yoru nodded and Sasori pat his son's head before turning around. "Goodbye, Eien." Sasori left and Eien went to his room.
"Stay in that spot and don't move till I tell you to."
"Yes, my prince," Yoru said, still kneeling on the ground.
-Later-
Eien glared at Yoru through his doorway, his eyebrow twitching when he saw the demon in the exact same spot, his head still down. "I'm hungry, go make me food," He ordered.
"Yes, my young prince." Yoru stood up and headed to the kitchen. "What would you like to eat?"
Eien sighed. "Apple pie."
There was a small cluttering sound and it stopped. "There are not the necessary ingredients for this 'pie'."
Eien sighed and crossed his arms before walking into the kitchen. "Then go get some."
"I am sorry, my prince, but you cannot leave the house and I cannot leave you."
Eien scoffed. "That is an order, demon."
"Your Father's orders overpower yours." Yoru gave a small smirk and Eien snarled before kicking the demon in the shin, only causing himself pain.
"Ow!" Eien began jumping up and down while holding his aching foot. "You hurt me!" He complained.
"I am sorry, my prince but I did nothing. You inflicted the pain upon yourself." Yoru couldn't help holding back his smirk, revealing his fangs.
"Stop smiling, you ingrate! Go make me something else!"
"Actually, my prince, there is no food in this house whatsoever. It seems your Father forgot to get some."
"Do not adress him so casually, demon." Eien put down his foot, flinching slightly. "Then send a message to him to get food."
"Yes, my prince." Yoru's eyes flashed silver and he held up his hand to his mouth as if he was ready to blow a kiss. He blew across his palm and letters flew out of his mouth before going out with a puff of smoke. "In the meantime, what would you like to do, my young prince?"
Eien crossed his arms and looked away from the demon. "For now just stay out of my sight."
"Yes, my prince."
I may change the title to this story but I don't know yet.
Did you read that, Woolfy? What did it say? I think it read SHIRT!
