Seven: Mother
A peaceful morning, a demon lord and a human girl lay on the same bed in a pink small room on the upstairs of the house. The birds sang their song to welcome a new fresh day after the raid poured heavily all the night. The three colors fat cat walked around in the shrine to greet his friends and gave some of neighborhoods' dogs smirked in the morning.
Ring!
'Damn clock!'
Crack!
Half an hour later, a girl woke up to see the clock is on the end table but it disappear from her room. She got up and rushed to the bath room is on the downstairs before grabbed her lunch box and went out of the house.
Crack!
'What?'
A school girl looked down saw a cutting clock on the ground. She stepped away and picked the pieces of the clock to check.
'My clock!' She lifts her head up and shouts at a window at her room. "How dare you, Chibimaru!"
'Mmmm, shut up, miko.' A silvery moon head popped up and fell on a pink soft pillow while a small clawed hand pulled a pink blanket to cover him again.
A middle aged woman walked to the upstairs to check a demon in her daughter's room. She pulled a pink blanket saw the sleeping lord curled up in a pink checked bed. She held the lord up and walked out of the room.
"Good morning, Chibi-kun"
A pup blinked up his golden eyes saw a woman face. 'Mooorning, woman'
"Time to wake up and the breakfast are ready but I will bath you first."
'Hnnn' He rubs his sleepy eyes while she took off his cloth and brushes his fangs.
An old man looked at the lord is sitting on a high chair was found in the storeroom on the yesterday in. He is surprising that the pup can use a fork to eat the food by himself. But he turned away quickly when the pair of golden eyes glanced at him.
"Chibi-kun and I will go to shopping in the noon what do you want me to buy for you?"
…
sat the lord in a pushcart while she go to shop in a department store. She stopped at the infant and baby department to buy something. The woman and the infant get rest at an ice-cream café to have their drink before go back to the shrine.
'That picture'
"What is it, Chibi-kun?"
'That dog'
She stared at the poster he pointed on a broad in the cafe. "Lost dog"
'Yes, she is the same dog that helps me on the last month from the wolves.'
**Flash back**
"I found him and a strange black and white dog in the grove edge. They were attacked and the dog was injured."
**End flash back**
"A strange black and white dog" The woman kept the poster into her handbag.
She pay the bill then she held him up and all of her shopping bags but there is the fallout when a bandit rushed into a cafe and caught her to be a hostage among the dumbfounded people in the cafe. The man dragged her to the exit to slip away from the polices are following him from a bank on the second floor in the store.
"Where is the bandit?" A police asked the waitress.
"He got out by the exit door." A man pointed at the door behind the cashier counter.
"But she has a kid." A young woman held the lord up and walked to the policeman.
"Please care for him until we arrest him"
"Yes"
"Thank you"
The woman held him close and tell the polices that she will wait for his mother at the station. The two reached to a police station in ten minutes later. She sat him on her lap while a police dog passed the two to his master desk.
"Well, I want to go to the toilet so please care for him for a while."
"Yes, miss and the toilet is over there."
"Thank you" the young woman sat him on a chair is near a policeman.
The lord looks around the room to see the big dog and called him. 'Come with me'
'Can you speak with me?' A German shepherd dog stared at him.
'Do not waste my time.'
'I cannot leave the station until he told me.'
'Do as I want or you wish them die, dog?'
'You are just a baby.'
'I'm demon.' The infant spreads his aura covers the area made everyone shivers down their spines immediately.
The dog got up and called the other dogs to the infant and let him rides his back before escaped the room. The group headed to a desolate building is quite far from the station while the demon lord tells them the way. They went to the forth floor and stopped at a room.
'Open the door'
A beauceron dog tried to push the door but it is locking from the inside.
'Step away' A green whip light is shooting from a clawed hand and slice the door in pieces.
"What?" The bandit turned around to the sound of falling pieces of door.
'Charge him'
After the word left his pink lips, the two dogs shot the man and bit his wrist to leave a gun in his hand. The western lord sliced the gun and commanded the shepherd walked toward the woman is tying.
"No! Chibi-kun" She rushes to him and covers him and the dog from the bandit.
Dip!
A sensitive nose sniffed the blood while a small clawed hand touch her face is covering with her own blood. She gave him a smile before fall on the hard floor next to him.
'Woman…woman' A pair of golden eyes glared at the bandit who grabbed a stick was stained with her blood.
'How dare you, human?'
"Chibi-kun, do not kill him." A slim hand pulled his shirt made him stop.
'Leave me, woman' A green whip light is shooting from his clawed finger while a Czechoslovak Wolfdog bit his leg.
'You hurt her and this the time to pay your debt. Die'
A green whip stabbed through his lung and let the poison destroy his nerve and some systems.
A boy and a school girl rushed to a hospital to see her mother in a common room but they saw the demon lord sits beside her on the bed.
"Miss Higurashi" A nurse walked toward a girl is sat at the bed with her brother.
"Yes and how about her?"
"Her skull is cracking but we don't sure about her brains."
"And the bandit" Souta asked the nurse.
"He is in ICU and his systems and nerve are in coma like he was poisoned."
"Poisoned?"
"Yes and call me if you need the help."
"Yes and thank you"
The siblings turned around to see their mother and the western lord are on the bed. They saw him fell asleep on the bed beside the mother who rubs her cocoa eyes and saw her kids.
"Souta, Kagome"
"Do not move much"
"They said your skull is cracking."
"Chibi-kun"
"He is here."
"And that man?"
"Don't worry, mom."
"the nurse said he is in ICU."
"Oh!" She lay on a side to hold the infant close to her chest and kissed his blue crescent moon.
"Thank you to secure me and keep my word."
"What is it, mom?"
"Do not kill him"
"I see"
...
An old man stared at the lord while he glanced at a paper in his hand. The girl and the boy tried to tell him the fact but their grandpa blamed that it was his fault to make his daughter in law was in the danger and got hurt. A green whip light cut a paper in an old man's hand in pieces before crawled out of the room while Souta followed him to hold him up.
'Go to her room' He pointed at the upstairs.
"Mom is sleeping."
'Go to her room, boy' A small finger still pointed at the upstairs.
"Yes, Chibimaru"
Souta put him on her futon and sat next to him to see the dog lord crept to her injury head. He is surprising while small claws removed the bandage from her head and lick the wound and her skull until they were seal.
"So cool! How can you do that, Chibi-kun?"
'Don't forget that I'm a demon.'
"I hope mom won't get hurt anymore."
'You can trust me and i always keep my word to save her when she is in the danger, boy. Now, go to your bed and you have a class on tomorrow.' He pointed at a clock and a door let him know the time.
A door was shut and the lord lay beside a woman to curl up at her. A school girl saw her little brother walked out of the room and followed him to his room.
"He is cool, sis."
"How?"
"I saw him removed the bandage and licked her wound until it was seal."
"Aha! Maybe he is a dog demon and I usually see the dogs lap their wounds."
"And Inuyasha did the same as he does?"
"Mmm...Maybe.I never see him do like that but shook off the water when he saved Kouga and they fell into the lake."
In the other room, a demon lord grabbed her hair and played with it before combs her hair when she has a nightmare from that day.
'I'm save and nothing else matter, Kyoko.'
"Chibi-kun"
'Don't worry and I keep your word. Sleep and I will be here all the night until the morning, mother.' He spreads his aura to cover her made she feels relaxed and drift in a deep sleep.
'Good night and have a nice dream'
