I was running fast now. My black cat ears perked up on my head, intent on listening for footsteps behind me, and to my dismay I heard them. My heart sunk thinking about how fast wolf demons were, but my feet were fueled by my longing to be alone no matter how slim the chance. Suddenly the footsteps stopped their rapid pace, and the air was filled with the smell of fresh blood and the sound of a surprised yell. The scent was familiar and I knew immediately who it was; Sheeva. A feeling burst through me that I couldn't identify. My heart ached in my chest and felt as if it was being tied in a knot, my stomach felt like someone had just stuck a huge chunk of ice in it. I shook my head, trying to make the feeling go away. The smell was getting stronger even though I was running further away, and suddenly I turned around screaming in my head to stop. I was going to get Sheeva, I couldn't think why, but I knew I had to. As I was halfway to where I was sure Sheeva was a sudden voice filled my head saying angrily, " Did you not here what that filthy wolf said about you?"
"She is my younger half sister and the only reason we are getting any land from Sessuameru. Killing her would have been the demise of our clan Koga."
No I couldn't turn around now I was to close…
"Koga do you really think that mere child could do me any harm?"
I'm almost there, cant turn back, can't…
"We won't be stopping again." She said firmly. "We will stop when I desire, and if you think otherwise; you can go off on your own and get killed, for all I care."
But think of what she has done
I noticed the bandages wrapped around my stomach looked up at Sheeva knowing she had done it. I looked down and almost silently mumbled a thank-you. She looked relieved but only for a second. She shot me an evil glare.
Sheeva and Koga suddenly came into view. I ran towards them pulling out my daggers, and checking out the scene. Two rather large demons held Sheeva and Koga. By the looks of it Sheeva had passed out, and blood seeped out over the demons hands like a red waterfall. Koga was struggling and talking to Sheeva as if she could really hear him.
"Come on Sheeva wake up!", his voice was panicked and his usual cocky face was wiped off to be replaced by unmistakable fear. "Sheeva! Sheeva please!", desperate to escape he struggled against the demon's hands. Neither the demons nor Koga noticed me and I slipped into the shadows behind the demons, daggers out. I stuck the dagger into the demon holding Sheeva right in the back. He yelled in pain and turned back, I slashed his stomach. The other demon now helping his comrade, he pulled my hair and swung me onto the dry earth. I landed on all fours gracefully, a cat always lands on her feet. The demon that had held Koga clearly distracted dropped him. Koga had ran over to Sheeva's body, which had also been dropped by the demon that had held her. he was trying to wake her up, shaking her. I left to deal with the two demons, had already killed one, and the other was coming at me twice as hard as before. I looked, saw a part of his chest unprotected and stabbed. He was down and I was hot and sweaty. I looked over at Koga who seemed to zone out from everything but Sheeva, who was still unconscious. The idiot hadn't put on any bandages, he was just shaking her, as if that was goanna work.
I glared at him and walked over swinging my bag off my shoulders, my daggers already away, and pulled out some fresh bandages. She was bleeding badly out of her legs and I wondered what had happened. Before I bandaged her I'd need water to clean her wounds, I thought. I pulled out my drinking water and carefully cut a square of some bandage to use as a cleaning cloth. Pouring the water on it I cleaned it out what seemed to be a really deep gash and quickly wrapped the bandage around her leg tightly to stop the bleeding.
I stood up and was about to head on my journey alone, when I was suddenly forced backwards by Koga. He glared at me angrily and said, "This is all your fault, you filthy half-breed. If you had just stayed where you where none of this would of happened." I looked at him, eyes round with surprise and rage and on instinct, slapped him, and hard. I slapped him and said, "You frickin asshole! If it wasn't for me your precious lover would be dead from loss of blood on account of your stupidity! If you could protect her worth a shit you wouldn't be in this mess! And I didn't ask you to come after me in the first place. You people don't own me, you don't even know me. So don't act like I'm just some pet you can boss around because I'm not", I finished my heartbeat quickened and my emotions rising. Suddenly I felt two fat hot tears at the corners of my eyes. Surprised and not wanting Koga to see, I turned around quickly.
I had a strict rule of not crying in-front of anyone, and hadn't done so since I was a small child, now here I was tears streaming down my face and hiding them from a full demon who despised me. 'I'm pitiful', I thought as a sob raised in my throat, which I swallowed quickly. 'Here I am fourteen years old, and crying in front of jerks like this.' I wasn't even sure why I was crying. Cause I was mad? Cause he accused me? Cause he hated me for my blood? The things I kept telling my self I didn't care about were lies. 'But no I must stop this silly nonsense.' I wiped my eyes quickly and grabbed my backpack trying not to meat the eyes of Koga. Wondering if he knew what had just happened.
The sun was rising over the mountains, and a pinky light swept across the barren land. A sudden warm feeling of sleepiness and I stifled a yawn. I started to walk towards the mountains and blocked out the sounds of Koga picking up Sheeva and following closely behind me. Ignored the silent tears pouring from my eyes, and hidden from Koga behind. It wasn't news how easily broken I was among others, but a feeling of numb-ness had also swept over me with the feeling of sleepiness.
We walked on in silence, with an unspoken agreement to not talk. The sounds of the silence filling my head once again; my music.
AN: yes I am aware that I just up-dated today a few minutes ago, but I was eager to up-date again to make up for not up-dating forever. Hope ya'll liked it even if it was really short…not much else to say….ok well bye. (waves)
