4. shadow cat

It was around 4:37 PM when Harry and Hiei came back to their apartment. "My finger feel like they want to fall off" muttered Harry as he flopped onto the couch –It couldn't be that bad, master- said Hiei as he jumped up on the couch "I like to see YOU type for 3 and a half hours non-stop then tell ME 'it couldn't me that bad'" Harry said annoyed as Hiei chuckled lightly – I could you know, master- "hate to break it to ya but you're a cat, Hiei, you can't" –Don't be fooled by my appearance, master like they say looks can be dicieving- "what do you-"

Harry was interupted by a yawn –You're tired, master- "it's nothing Hiei" -Master- "yes Hiei?" asked Harry as he looked at Hiei just to find his eyes glowing –Sleep, master-

Slowly his eyes drooped "Hiei-" he started to mutter just before he falls to sleep. He was slowly consumed by dreams or rather nightmares.

((A young boy you looked like five stared with frightented eyes at the two people towering over him while, they in turn, glared back harshly. The boy felt like finding a hole and curl up in it and never come out. "You little freak" a voice spat out as a hand reached out towards him. He tried to back up but was stop when his back hit the wall

"P-please don't hurt me" he stuttered lightly. The glares, if possiable, became even harsher "don't speak to us in that tone freak!" a womens voice yelled as she slap him hard across the face causing him to yelp in pain. Holding his stinging cheek he made a run for the staires. Hands reached out to grab him but thanks to his small form he dodged them easliy he got half way up the staries when he heard larger, havier feet behind him. Looking back he noticed the other figure, the man, running behind him. He got to the top of the staires just before a large hand grabbed the coller of his shirt and jerked him back hard causing him to stumble and fall down the staires and landing at the bottem with a dull thud. The women grabbed him and walking the cardboard under the staires, opened the door, and thew him in and slamed it close putting him in darkness. Crying very softly so the woman and man won't hear him he curled himself into a little ball and cried himself to sleep))

Gasping softly Harry forced himself to wake up. Sitting up he shooked his head and growled softly. That dream…that dream haunted him. "I guess what they say is true…you can't escape your past no matter how hard you try…" he muttered to himself. Looking around he noticed it was dark outside and the moon was half full. Getting off the couch he walked over to the door and called out to Hiei –Yes, master? - "I'm going out wanna come?" –No thanks, master- "Alright"

He closed the door after him and walked outside and immediately walked into the shadows and took off his human disguise revealing blood red eyes instead of emeralds, slightly pointed ears, and fangs. Looking around to make no one was near he crouched down and then sprong himself forward, leaping a good 20ft into the air and landing soundlessly onto a windows ledge and repeating the same action over till he reached the roof. Landing, he smirked. Oh yeah, it felt good being a vampire.

At Draco's

Draco lay on his bed staring at the ceiling like he's been doing for the past hour. He felt restless. He. Needed. To. Do. Something. NOW! Or he was going to go crazy. Sighing he got up walked over to the kitchen. even though the apartment wasdark he dodged around small tables and random things that was laying around till he reached the kitchen.There he put his jean jacket on and slipped his runners on. Quietly opening his door he slipped out and shut it behind him. Not wanting to take the elevetor he walked down the staires and in matter of minutes he was at door, in seconds he was out.

After wondering around for a bit he decided to go to the park. His feet automatically brought him there. He sat down on a bench and looked up at the stars and moon. Smiling very softly he continued to watched the stars while he drifted into memories unaware of two pairs of crimson eyes watching him

He soon snapped out of it when he heard something growling. Looking over to his right he saw large black cat which looked like a panther come out of the shadows growling. His breath hitched him his throat, as it's blood red eyes looked at him with hunger showing. The moonlight bounced off its sleek black fur as it stalked closer to the frightened teenager. 'RUN!' a voice shouted in his head. Draco took the voice's advice and broke into run just as the creature pounced. Howling in outrage the creature ran after him snarling.

Draco ran with all his might trying to go faster. He glanced backwards and saw the cat creature gaining up. He knew this creature was from this world and he knew if that creature were to catch up with him he would be dead. Draco was thankful that he was a fast runner but every living thing has to tire out at some time.

It felt like he ran for hours on end. He's legs were screaming for rest but he would not give in, he couldn't. His life depended on it. He breaths were coming out in harsh pants and his chest felt like it was on fire. He was tiring out but the creature behind him wasn't it was like it was dead set on eating him. 'Why me? Whymewhymewhymewhymewhyme WHY ME!' draco yelled in his head. But in doing so he tripped over a rock on the sidewalk. Scrambling to his feet he nocied a tree near by and as quickly as he could he climbed it. The cat creature run to the base of the tree and pounced upwards trying to get at Draco. Its claws nicked his shoes before gravity forced the cat down to the ground before it tried again. /little dragon come down I won't hurt you I just want to play/ a voice hissed. Draco stared at the creature in shock "d-did you just speak?" / little dragon, little dragon come down/ the voice hissed again as the cat circled the tree pouncing at random times trying to get him. Seeing this was getting it nowhere the cat creature pounce upwards before sinking its claws into the trunk of the tree and leaping onto a large branch. It looked at Draco /you have nowhere to run, little dragon / it was true he couldn't jump down without hurting himself and he was running out of tree to climb he was stuck. "What do you want with me!" /I'm afraid, little dragon, I can not answer that/ 'someone, anyone help me!" Draco pleaded in his mind, as the creature was only a few feet under him. It seemed someone was listening cause from nowhere rocks came flying and hit the creature with a deadly aim. Growing mad the creature leaped off the tree and went to search for whoever threw the rocks forgetting Draco at the moment. Seeing this as his chance to escape he quickly and quietly climbed down the tree ran for it. /little dragon be warned you can run and you can hide but you will never escape me/ a voice hissed faintly in his mind

Draco never stopped running till he reached his apartment and went into the building as fast as he could.

On top of a random building

Two figures, one of a girl and a boy, stood watching the entire thing of Draco and the cat creature. "I've got to admit that boy is a fast runner," the boy said smoothly. "Yes he is but he will not outrun my little pet" the girl said watching Draco trip over the rock. "But you know Chiyo you cannot allow your pet to harm the boy" "I know that Kane" the girl, Chiyo said in annoyence as they went back to watching Draco. Kane narrowed his eyes as the creature got dangerously close to Draco "I think it would be best if you called off your pet now, sister" hissed kane. "Relax brother my pet knows what its doing" Chiyo smirked "I belive, my sister, you have grown vain" "that may be brother"

Their eyes both narrowed as the boy got away from the cat creature. "Something helped that boy get away" hissed Chiyo to her elder brother "Don't anger yourself sister," kane said calmly "though this is unfortunate we need to learn more about this boy." "But why?" "Lets just say I have a feeling the elemental we're hunting is tied to him" Chiyo nodded and called back the cat creature. "What should we do now brother?" "Simple. We enroll in his school" "Are you…serious?" "Very. Now come sister we need to report to father about this" "yes, brother" with that they and the cat creature disappeared unawawre that they've been watched.

On top of another random building

Harry was leaping across random buildings when he spotted Draco walk to the park 'where is he going at this hour?' harry thought as he followed him to the park. He sat down in a buildling watching him as he sat down on a bench and looked to the sky. He didn't why but he did. It wasn't until his vampiric hearing picked up low growling he became alert. He watched as a large black cat emerged out of the shadows stalked closer to Draco. He jumped onto his feet when he saw Draco freeze at the sight of it and remained frozen even as it came closer 'RUN!' he gave a mental shout to him it seemed to work cause draco bolted from the bench. He followed them very closely. It wasn't until Draco was stuck in the tree with the cat he knew he needed to do something. Looking around, he found some rocks and started throwing them at the cat hoping it would either knock it out of the tree or get mad and find the source were the stones were coming from or both. After Draco had ran off he teleported from where he was to a random building that was were he noticed them. The 'evil' twins Kane and Chiyo (Nicknamed: the bastard and the bitch by Harry). He had to keep himself from going over there and murdering them. So insted he used his hearing to listen in on their conversation. After they had disappeared he immediately teleported back to his apartment to report to tyson about this little problem.
