Fuu
"Sora!" I screamed, "Sora!" I fell to my knees, teas pouring down my face, "Sora…" I whispered,
"Fuu…" I felt his hand on my shoulder, "go back, you're in no state to be doing anything right now," I swung around to face Jin,
"I can't just stop looking for him," I said hysterically,
"Normally I wouldn't force you…but you're freaking out, Fuu, you're of no help to him in this state," I looked at him, his eyes were serious, I knew I had no chance of winning, that if I didn't go back he would drag me back. I stood up, my face drenched with tears, I felt someone take my hand and I turned to find Shino, her face the perfect example of sympathy as she smiled kindly at me. I sobbed quietly as we returned to the house; Shino remained silent, knowing not to interrupt my tears.
Sora…where are you?
Mugen
I stood up straight and began to walk away from the tree that I had leant on for the passed hour.
I needed a drink.
I had been walking for three minutes when I heard a noise. The faint sound of someone crying met my ears, those tears seemed familiar, as though I'd heard them sometime before. I walked towards the noise, finding myself on an edge. The cliff was steep but the sound was clear, I looked down to see a sight that frightened me to my very core.
Sora.
The child sat on a small ledge of the cliff, he was crying, curled up into a ball, tears coming from him loud and strong. Without thinking I began to climb down, the Kids safety the only thing on my mind. A few minutes down I found myself on the ledge. I could hear it cracking beneath my weight.
Quickly I picked the kid up who only began to cry harder when I held him but thankfully he latched onto my neck as tight as he could,
"Don't let go," I grunted, but I knew he wouldn't, the nails that dug into my neck told me that he wouldn't, that he was too scared to. The floor fell from beneath me and I grabbed the rock in front of me, clinging to it. Desperately I tried to regain my footing but it would seem that I couldn't. For a moment hopelessness overtook me but I found the remains of the ledge, finding it strong enough to support me for a moment. I began to climb up the cliff then, with some effort; I pulled myself and the kid over the ledge, making our way to the surface…to safety.
I sat hunched over in an arch, trying to regain my breath. The child leapt into my arms, his tears soaking my shirt. His arms clung tightly to my waist, I found myself with my arms around him,
"Stupid kid," I mumbled under my breath. I noticed the red stain on my arm, the blood not my own, I looked at the child who had suffered a cut to his shoulder, nothing serious but it bled badly nonetheless. I ripped off the Childs sleeve and fastened it tightly around his shoulder. The moment I had finished I found his arms around me once again.
His stomach growled.
Smiling, I unlatched him with some difficulty and stood up, grabbing his hand and began walking, Sora by my side who looked at me with grateful eyes.
Jin
I stared, watching as the two walked hand in hand away from me. I had seen it all, I had watched every moment, I had almost run into offer my help but I was glad that I didn't because then I would never have seen this sight.
Mugen had grown up.
I smiled to myself as I fixed the position of my glasses. The sight of Mugen, a father, but, not only one in name but one in spirit, now, if only Fuu could sort him out then they'd be happy. As much as I had hated the pairing when I had found msyelf here I could see that they genuinely cared for one another.
All they needed to do was admit it.

I entered the house, Fuu gave me a baleful look, I smiled reassuringly,
"Did you find him?!" she called anxiously,
"Yes." I responded,
"Where is he?!" she said in the same tone,
"He's safe, he'll be back later, I'm sure of it"
"But where is he?" I walked up to her and rubbed her head as walked passed,
"He's safe, trust me."
Mugen
We sat in a restaurant, the smell of food wafted through the room as it was delivered to us. I stared at the child's happy face, it seemed as though the previous events had never occurred. I smiled, happy that his Childs mind had forgotten the pain so quickly. He ate without restraint; it almost hurt to see it, the instinctual parts of me that shone through this child despite him having never known me. Then again, Fuu wasn't one who ate food with much control either.
I smiled.
I remembered the eating contest we had all participated in all those years ago, how she could have very nearly won. Such a pig. I laughed to myself, as I began to eat in the same manner as the child. I finished before him, the Childs skills unable to surpass my own. I sat lazily as I waited for the kid to finish which didn't take as long as I had thought. The kid looked at me, a grin on his face,
"You're an idiot," I replied bluntly. He gave me a reprimanded look but soon began to grin again, I smiled. The kid was like magic; I couldn't help but feel better being around him. I stood up, the rattle of change in my pocket which was now significantly lighter after the passed two days of drinking and feeding. I began to walk out the door and the kid was hot on my heels.
He pulled out his little wooden sword and began hitting blades of grass as we walked through the country; as we made our way back to Fuu,
"Where were you going this morning brat?" I asked, my voice holding none of the contempt that it should have as I stared at the setting sun. He looked away from me shyly,
"I wanted to come with you this time" he murmured, his voice sounding sad. I furrowed my brow. The kid had been following me, I sighed, Fuu's going to want to kill me when I get back; I've deprived her of her son for an entire day.
I groaned.
Fuu.
