Warnings: a lot of major ooc in this chapter, especially on Kamui's part, but don't worry, eventually he'll turn into the Kamui we all know and love. Oh yeah, keep in mind that nobody knows anything about angels or seals or the end of the world.
Find the boy and make him disappear from this world. His majesty's words echoed in Seishirou's brain as he entered the city to complete his task. He stood at the entrance taking in the disgusting view before him. Fat women feeding their screaming vermin. Whores stood in front of brothels urging a passerby to enter. Drunks passing out in the middle of the street next to their wastes. Crows gnawing at the dead rotting flesh discarded by the butcher. The city's young spawns were free to move about the city streets like flies that needed to be swatted.
''Ladies and gentlemen," the sixteen-year-old boy shouted to the crowd of people. "I am the great Kamui and have I got a surprise for all of you. Now all I need are a couple of volunteers who'll promise to trust me no matter what!" He smiled and charmed the audience.
"He's so cute," a bunch of giggle-happy girls whispered amongst themselves.
"I'll need one of you ladies to step up here."
"What are you going to do," a woman with long dark hair asked.
"It's a surprise."
She turned to the red-head next her, "well, Karen, what do you think?"
"I think it'll be fun." Karen replied as Kanoe stepped up. Kamui motioned for her to face the audience.
"Do you have any money on you? You should put it here on this table in case you lose it during my little magic trick." The woman put it where Kamui said to and resumed her position
"All right," Kamui started, "Everyone, watch this woman closely count to a hundred…she is going to disappear right in front of your eyes the second you reach a hundred." The audience started counting, 1, 2, 3, 4…
"He's going to make one of us disappear," Karen said to her companion.
"I'd like to see him pull this off," Kanoe chuckled. 23, 24, 25, 26…
"Kamui has to be better than all of those other magicians," a girl in the audience said.
"Yeah," another said, "all the other magicians always hide people behind curtain or something. I'm so glad we're finally going to be able to see someone disappear right in front of us." 57, 58, 59, 60…
"Hey, where is Kamui anyway?" someone in the crowd shouted. 97, 98, 99, 100
"huh?" Karen and Kanoe both looked around for Kamui, but he was nowhere to be found.
"That little brat took off with our money!" Kanoe shouted. "I was planning on buying some new makeup and jewelry. I had to work so many nights to save up that much. money."
Kanoe slammed the door behind her and started heading to her room.
"You seem upset," a cheerful voice greeted her and she found herself in the man's embrace. "Is something wrong?"
"Some brat stole my money."
"Well," Yuto reassured her, "as pretty as you are, you'll make it up in no time."
"Ne Yuto," she smiled sweetly, "I've been awfully nice to you lately. Do you think you can be nice to me?"
"Was I a little rough last time?" he asked innocently.
"I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about all the freebies I've been giving you."
"You want me to start paying from now on, is that correct?" Yuto gave her another one of his charming smiles. "Sure." He broke the embrace and said, "I'll see you next time then." He waited for Kanoe to disappear into her room before knocking on the door opposite of hers. The door opened and a red-head greeted him.
Upon entering the city he could already sense the aura of the boy he was ordered to slay. Now all he had to do was find him. He cautiously followed the call of the boy's aura until he knew the boy was nearby. He glanced up and got a glimpse of the boy before he entered his house. He opened the door and invited himself into the boy's house.
"Who are you?"
"A messenger…somewhat…" he replied as he inched closer to him. The boy bore a slight resemblance his Seishirou's Sumeragi friend.
Aoki Seichirou stood at the entrance of the city and paused to take in the view before him. Mothers caring and nurturing their children. Children happily running along playing with their neighbors. A dog slumbering peacefully in front of its home. Birds singing their tribute to the day. Find the boy and give him this message. The words echoed in his brain as he entered the city
Yeah….i know this is pretty much a mess so far….but things will start coming together……I hope.
