Inu's POV
What did I do! I can't see anything! There is red everywhere but no one! Where is Shippo! I heard his voice…! Oh, no… That 'thunk' I heard… What did I do! I can't see! I cant's see if he's alright! No! Please tell me I didn't just do what I thought I did! Oh. My God!
I ripped my claws from whatever I hit and ran. That was cowardly, I admit but I couldn't help it. I couldn't see where I was going, so I trusted my instincts to take me where I needed to go. Where I went after that I do not know. But after a couple of hours, I collapsed from exhaustion. I needed water and food badly but my body wouldn't move. Would I die right there? Lame death, I thought. But then I heard something I would never thought to hear again. My name being called…
Shippo's POV
Whoa. That was scary. I thought for sure he would kill me. All that blood lust in his eyes. Scary. But for a minute I swear I saw Inu in there. Somewhere. He's just buried deep in there. God. What am I going to do? How do I find him? Ah, crap! I just can't deal with this! Inu sliced the bark right above my head. That was close. But then he looked so scared. He panicked or something. Then he just ran out of here. I mean it was fast.
What am I supposed to do? Who do I go to? Is there anyone? Wait. He has a brother! Sesshomaru! Yes! That's it! I'll ask him where Inu!
So I ended up in front of Inu's apartment, but to tell you the truth, I was really nervous. I cautiously knocked on the door, not really expecting him to be there. I mean he probably had a job or something to support himself and Inu. There was no answer for a while so I was about to leave when the door opened up a crack. An amber gold eye stared back at me.
"Mr. Sesshomaru?"
"Yes?"
I breathed a sigh of relief. Then I suddenly remembered why I was there.
"Mr. Sesshomaru! It's Inu! Something happened!"
"Did he go full-demon?"
"Huh?"
"Come. I explain."
So I walked into his apartment.
"How were his eyes?"
I looked a Sesshomaru. He was dead serious. I can't believe it. Demons? Come on.
"Uh… huh?"
"What did his eyes look like?"
I shivered when I remembered the red and blood lust that where so obvious in Inu's eyes. My response was enough for Sesshomaru.
"Ah. I see. Shippo, has Inu-yasha told you yet that he was a demon?"
I looked at him weird. There were no demons in America. Maybe in Japan, but not America.
"Uh… No?"
"Huh. Baka."
"Uh… what?"
"Inu-yasha is a half demon. I am a full demon but right now I'm in my human form. We both moved here from Kyoto because the government there got too scared of demons. He ordered the execution of all full and half demons. So we moved here. We hoped to hide the fact we were hiding ,but…"
I was not processing this information at all. Demons? Kyoto? Laws? What the hell! My head felt like it was going to explode! Sesshomaru explained everything in a brisk, business-like voice. But so far I go the act that both he and Inu were in danger.
"But what?", I asked.
"But… it seems we've been found out…"
"What! By who!"
"You."
That shocked me.
"So, what are you saying?"
"I'm saying, that the fate of Inu-yasha and myself rests in your hands. An order went out to all the countries not to long ago. To find and kill anyone suspected of being a half or full demon. So, what are you going to do? Turn us in? Its entirely up to you. However if you do so choose to hand us over, I will use force to silence you."
He glared at me. A total death glare. I really had no intention of turning them in, but that icy stare wiped any possible thoughts out of my head.
"I won't abandon Inu now. I'll never tell anyone. I swear."
He looked at me really good to make sure I wasn't lying. Then he smiled. It was the first time I ever saw him do that. It was kind of cool.
"So… Mr. Sesshomaru, do you know what happened to Inu?"
"I expect he is far away from here."
"What! How do you know! Did he come over here and tell you where he was going! If so please tell me!"
He chuckled slightly. "A demon never revels his tricks."
Thank you thank you thank you for reviewing! I got it! It took me awhile and its kind of short… I hoped you enjoyed it and please continue reviewing! I'll be sooo happy!
