Kayrie—Yeah. I make typos a lot. And I was feeling lazy that day, and he's in a city. Not much to see. :3
Tenshi no Koori—I'm feeling lazy and not bothering to look at reviews (or names of the reviewers for that matter o.0) So I'll just say thanks for your review. Sorry, I'll respond fully next chapter….if you review that is. o..O
Juu-kun—Wow. You really love him like that. Well I saw this e-card on TheOtaku that had a pic of Shishi on Suzuka's shoulder and it had an arrow pointing to him that says, 'Whoever thinks Shishi looks cuter like this say 'Aye'! XD It was too cute.
Review, for Chrissakes.
Shishi looked up and saw….well, not too much. He saw cars zooming by, not a surprise in the city, and people walking. He looked up and saw dark black clouds. It appeared it was going to rain soon. He saw a bright flash, heard a booming noise, and fresh cold water was soon being poured over his head. He rested his elbow on the pavement (his backside was still in the sewer, and he was standing on the ladder) on the pavement and let the fresh water drain a little bit of the yucky stuff out of his hair and allowed some of the still freely-flowing blood to drip faster down his torn kimono sleeve. He sighed.
"Wonderful," he muttered. "This is simply wonderful." He pulled the rest of his body out of the sewer and slumped down the walk, blood leaving a deep-red trail and slowly fading as the rain diluted it. Hopefully no one would see him…
Lucky ningens, he thought. With their umbrellas and whatnot. He wanted to return to human form, rip out his sword and slice them all to pieces, he was so angry at the moment. He decided now would be a good time to bleed to death.
Two kids with an umbrella (they aren't OCs, just generic people) looked at him. They were both girls that I don't feel like describing at the moment.
"Aw, look it!" one girl said, pointing to Shishi. "A bird with a broken wing!"
"And it's walking?" the other asked.
"Let's take it home with us!" the first one said cheerfully.
"W—" Shishi began, but the first little girl already picked him up. He squirmed and 'Nyah'-ed in protest, but the two didn't seem to care. They were busy poking him in the stomach and asking him stupid questions.
"Where's your mama?" one girl asked.
"Nyah," Shishi protested, still squirming, trying not to be found out.
"How old are you?"
"Nyah."
"Are you lost?"
Shishi didn't say anything this time. He just crossed his arms and pouted. The girls only wanted to know things; they didn't care his arm was in total pain and it was bleeding and getting all over their filthy hands.
"Oh, look over there—is it, yes! It's a puppy!" the girls dropped Shishi and he landed on the pavement with a soft 'thump'.
Wait, he thought….
Didn't they know he was wearing a kimono?
Some time later…
Shishi was unconscious from blood loss.
At Genkai's temple…
Chu, Rinku, Touya, Jin and Suzuka were all gathered around a low table drinking tea.
"I'm worried," Rinku piped up. "What if Shishi doesn't come back?"
"He'll come back," Touya said calmly. "I wonder how far away he wandered…"
"Aren't you worried about him?" Rinku asked.
"Aye," Jin replied, "the li'l one's right, what if'ee's dead or hurt'er somethin'?"
Touya sighed, setting his cup down. "I'm telling you, he'll be alright."
"I say we send someone after 'im," Chu suggested.
"I'm not telling you again, Shishi's gonna be fine!" Touya stood up and walked out.
"Either he doesn't care about him or he did something to the bird," Suzuka muttered. Everyone, having overheard this, nodded in agreement.
The next morning (I bet you're getting tired of these, don't worry it's the last one)….
Shishi had woken up. He got to his small feet and swayed back and forth, his wound throbbing violently. He clutched it and got to his knees, hissing in pain.
"The past 24 hours have been hell….damn the guy who got me like this….I'll make him pay when I find out who he is…"
Yay! Alright, the guy who cursed Shishiwakamaru is NOT an OC…it's someone Shishi knows. O.o Want to find out who? Review to find out!
