Tears Of Blood
Chapter 1
A/N: This is a story that is being written along with IrisHigure. It involves a half-wolf demon named Kara and a half-dog demon named Ketsurui. I hope you enjoy.
I stood on my toes as I tried to look into the garbage can. My stomach begged me to eat something, anything. I couldn't see anything in the can that I was searching through. I sat down and curled into a ball as the hunger ripped through me again. I could feel the tears welling in my eyes again. I tried to suppress the emotions welling up inside of me from the frustration of not finding any food.
I picked at the loose threads from my tattered dress as I looked around the alley warily. I easily took down any humans, but I didn't want to be surprised. I looked at the ground and watched a line of small ants scurry by. My stomach rumbled again in hunger as I watched them carry small bits of food to their nest.
I sniffled as the pain gnawed at my stomach again and tears came to my eyes. I stood up unsteadily and stumbled over near the street. I leaned against the wall of a building and watched the people pass by as the scent of food reached my nose. I crept from the shadows as the most delectable scent filled my nose.
I followed the smell and crept upon a woman who was eating a pizza. I watched her and my mouth watered as the delicious aromas wafted over to me. I crept closer and looked around for danger as the food became more tempting. I watched her take another bite full of pizza before I leapt at the food, grabbing pieces of pizza. I heard the woman scream as I turned and started running. I could hear footsteps running after me and I tried running faster as I shoved bites of the delicious food into my mouth.
I ran up steps that led to a shrine as the person following me grew closer. I ran quickly to a smaller shrine. I hid in the dark corner and continued shoveling the food into my mouth as the person drew closer. I cowered in the corner finishing off the last bite as the footsteps stopped at the door. I flicked my ear as the door opened up. A woman stepped in and looked at me with a dark smile. Her eyes glowed a dull red as she approached me and looked down at me. I could feel her eyes burning through my body as she lifted me up by my hair and through me into the well. I shrieked and squeezed my eyes shut as I seemed to fall for eternity.
I opened my eyes slowly and sat up, looking around at my surroundings. I was at the bottom of the well. I looked up and I could see a clear sky above me, before there had been a roof. I looked around the area where I was lying and climbed to my feet. I slowly walked to one side and pulled on a vine that stretched down the side. I started climbing up the side and clawed my way over the side.
I found myself in the middle of woods that hadn't been there before. I stood up and looked around as butterflies fluttered by me. I could see a tall tree that stood out from the rest. I sniffed at the air and recognized the scent of food. I ran towards the scent and crept to the edge of the forest where a village was visible. I crept more into the village and tucked my tail down, laying my ears flat. I was so hungry.
I crept closer till an arrow landed in the earth right in front of my nose. I looked up and saw a human woman with raven hair looking down at me coldly. I looked up at her fearfully as the wind picked up and swept her hair around her.
"Leave this place, half-breed. You don't belong here," she said harshly as she drew another arrow back in her bow. I whimpered and backed up, nodding my head slowly, before I jumped up and fled away.
I fled through the forest till I came upon the tree I had noticed before. I leaned against it and whimpered as the hunger bit into me again. A flash of red caught my eye and I looked up to see a half-dog demon looking down at me from a perch in the tree.
"What's your name, kid?" he asked quietly as he leapt down beside me. I inched away from him slightly and whimpered before answering him.
"My name is Ketsurui Kokoro," I looked up at him with my ears drooping, fearing that he would attack me like the others.
A/N: I know it's short. And I know I haven't updated my other stories in forever. -_-; I'm really trying though.
