Shadows seemed to contort and move around the lanterns, making the dead trees seem to dance eerily in the lantern light. Out of one of the deeper shadows a man stepped out. He had light purple hair, almost lavender and dulled white eyes, like those of a blind man.
As he strode toward the trees the shadows lingered to him, swirling in dizzily patterns around his body. He conversed lightly with them his voice slurred and distorted, clearly not a language on any living being.
"Chatting with your spirits, brother?" a voice asked, as a shadow jumped down from a tree. As he stepped closer toward the name his features became more distinct. He had fiery orange hair that ended it red tips. He was clearly younger than the other one.
The one main similarity between the two was they were both devastatingly beautiful. With pale skin and sharp features they would make most girls give their souls up, which was rather fitting.
" I have to it's my job,Iblis." the man answered lightly. Iblis cocked his head to the side and smiled. "Really, I would never guess that talking about their lost girlfriends was such a important part of that "
Azazel blushed lightly and then looked up. "It is, they must get comfortable with me. Plus how did you understand us?" Iblis smiled again and walked over to a rock, as he brushed it off he said "Found a few book on the Language of the Dead in dad's library."
He then sat down and crossed his legs. "So why do you think Asatroth wanted us to come here?" Iblis asked looking up to his brother.
"I dunn- hey wait. Slow down, I can't understand what your saying!"
Iblis frowned and felt a pang in his chest. 'Why must he always do that? I mean I'm alive and right next to him!' With a sigh he dug out a music player from his pocket and placed the buds in his ears. He quietly bobbed his head to the music, trying to control his temper.
He was failing though, little sparks filled the air around him and small clumps of dry grass burst into flames.
A hand tapped his shoulder, he looked up quickly hope sparking in his eyes, he frowned slightly when he saw who it was.
"Nice to see you too Nii-San." Asatroth said mockingly. Iblis frowned and pulled his earbud out. " Hello Ototo" he said back just as snarkily.
"So why are you speaking Oriental?" Iblis asked folding away his music player.
"It's Japanese." Asatroth replied huffily.
"Nope, it's Oriental. If you stopped sucking up to Samuel and stayed in the present you'll know that." Iblis replied as he pulled out a lollipop and placed in it his mouth.
"Please don't." Iblis said holding a hand up stopping the comment that was sure to follow. "Now tell me why you called us here."
"Umm shouldn't we wait for mister Reaper over there." Asatroth asked inclining his head to the floating form of Azazel.
"Nah, I bet he'll spend twenty more minutes talking to his family." Iblis said. Even though his words were playful his voice was bitter and filled with regret.
Asatroth sighed "Still holding that grudge?" Iblis poked out his lower lip and crossed his arms. "Don't. Know. What. Your. Talking. About." he said through gritted teeth.
"Fine Fine, now let me tell you about this kid." Asatroth said as he sat down.
Rin woke up with a jolt. He sat up and panted "What the fuck." he gasped clutching his chest. His heart was pounding in his chest like a jackhammer.
He then started coughing, the basement smelled so musty and dusty. " Your right Shima, the basement is where the monsters go." he said in-between hacks.
"Rin?" Rin spun around and saw Eren sitting up, rubbing his eyes. Rin snickered when he saw how Eren's hair stuck up in tufts.
"Hey,did I wake you?" Rin asked standing up.
"Yah, you sounded like a fucking wheezy grandma." Eren chortled coughing himself. Rin smiled and shook his head. Then he frowned and bit his lip.
"Fuck no," Rin said stomping his foot. " Were cleaning this right now, the jokes NOT going to be on us. Let's go." Rin reached over and grabbed Eren arm,flinching slightly when he felt how cold he is.
Eren noticed and pulled back rubbing his wrist "Titan thing, now lets go make this place fucking spotless." Rin nodded and frowned. As they walked up the stairs he said "Umm, not just you, my skin is hot umm a being me thing." Eren nodded and they both shuffled at the awkwardness.
"Let's go." Eren said simply.
"Are they still fucking up!" Iblis asked peering over Astroth's shoulder. Astroth nodded slowly still peering in the small window.
"Goddamn it, why did I let you force me into this stalker gig?" Iblis asked his nostrils flaring and a light pink blush flared across his cheeks.
Astroth groaned and pushed him away " Fucking booze breath." he muttered.
"Can I call him maid Rin from now on?" Iblis asked giggling.
Astroth grumbled and kicked away a few cans "I hope you have a motherfuckin' hangover tomorrow."
Rin and Eren were covered in mold and dust. "Spotless." Eren gasped. Rin nodded. "We'll get Lung Cancer if we stay in here." Rin said stumbling upstairs and yelled over his shoulder. "I'm taking a shower."
Rin walked along the hallway, his feet gently pressing against the carpet. As soon as he reached the bathroom he opened it and stepped in. He stepped into the shower and sighed. He could see the morning light just starting to filter in through the shower curtain.
"Were we up that long?"
Huh?
"Damn! No go away dolphin!" Rin quietly shouted hitting the wall with his fists.
So Rude.
Rin continued to ignore him and finished his shower, he walked down the corridor his towel wrapped around his waist. As he walked past the front door it opened and someone walked in.
"You okay?" Rin asked as he noticed how tired Zoe looked.
"Uh ya, just really tired after guarding Annie." Zoe replied sleepily. Rin frowned when he remembered the crystallized she-titan. "Well, are you sure you can get to your room safely?" He let go, when they nodded.
Why did you say they?
"Because, they don't have one gender, apparently there gender neutral." Rin mumbled under his breath as he walked down the stairs.
Okay that's weird.
'Ah your so rude.' Rin thought angrily.
He then walked into their now sparkling room and flopped onto his bed. For once being able to sleep without nightmares.
Hello!
