His hair was silvern. And his eyes already held that promising tint of violet. He looked so much like their father, it almost scared Irumi. he didnt show it, though, as he looked down on the newborn, carefully keeping his expression neutral, if a bit curious.
"He´s very small." the boy observed. Miruki had been twice as big, not that Irumi remembered it very clearly.
"Don´t worry, hell grow. And his power won´t depend on his appearance." his fathers voice told him. He turned around to see Silver enter the room.
Somehow, the proud look in his fathers eyes made Irumi a bit angry, though he hasily concealed the emotion. Silver saw it nonetheless.
"Killua will my heir. As his eldest brother, you will take on the role of a second father, taking care of him and training him." Silver told him. "He will be your responsiblity as well as mine."
Irumi just silently looked at the baby.
"Don´t let feelings cloud your judgement. This is as much your trial as it is a nessecary step." Silver stepped foreward, put a hand unter Irumis chin and forced the boy to look at him. Irumi held his gaze only for a second, then averted his eyes.
His father let go of him.
"Excuse me." Irumi bowed, then almost fled the room.
Everything would be different from now on.
With a feral cry, they came, collapsing in a heap on the divan.
Irumi curled up, his hair a wild mess spread over the pillows, panting, eyes closed. He didnt move from there, too exhausted to bother. But he didn´t fall asleep. something still kept him from relaxing. "You still havent answered me." he quietly said. It didnt matter the question had not been asked ut loud. There had not even been a silent answer.
"And I won´t." finally came the reply. "It wouldn´t do anything good. What now will happen has been preordained for quite a while."
Irumi sighed. There was no way he could interfere.
"It will happen. And it doesn´t change anything."
