Hey guys!
Like I said in the last chapter, I will try to post new chapters as best that I can. So no flames if I'm slow at posting new chapters, 'kay?
:3
"What the...What the hell is that!?" Kuroto asked as he took a few steps back.
"Yuki!" Luka called out. His worry for Yuki growing more and more when the armored like monster pushed the boy more closely to its chest.
"Edion?"
Ignoring everyone's gazes, Nova walked up to the monster and held out his hands. Unlike everyone else Nova's expression was calm and soft.
"It's okay. Yuki's not in any danger now." He said softly as he stopped in front of Edion.
Edion stared down at the young demon (A/N: I mean Duras) and gently lowered Yuki into his waiting arms. Nova carefully sat his best friend on the ground and slung his arm over his shoulder. with one arm around Yuki's waist, Nova shouted;
"Anyone want to help!? Or are you guys going 'ta just keep standing there?!"
Luka was the first to take Yuki from him. Nova didn't protest when Luka gently gathered Yuki in his arms and glared at him. The younger Opast smiled. Amused at how protective the older was over the boy, but he couldn't tease them just yet. Not when he had 'this' to deal with.
"Edion, return. He's safe now. Return to Yuki."
Edion turned it's head towards Luka then at the other Zweilts. Without warning, a bright white flash of light swallowed the demon. As the light faded, the demon was transformed into a ball of white light. The ball glided towards Luka and Yuki. Before Luka could react, the ball disappeared into Yuki's chest.
"Yuki!" Luka yelled in alarm. He shook the boy in his arms slightly, trying to wake him. Yuki's even breathing was his only reply.
"Don't worry," Nova said with a reassuring smile.
"He's fine now."
OoO
"A piece of his heart?" Senshirou asked as he tightened Kuroto's bandage on his left shoulder.
Nova nodded. He leaned more into the widow frame and crossed his arms over his chest. His eyes quickly scanned over at Yuki's bed. Luka sat on the edge of the bed and stared at the sleeping blond with an unreadable expression.
"That demon is called 'Edion', the protector of light. You could call it a familiar, but its origin is a bit complicated."
"What do you me by 'complicated'?" Toko asked.
"What I mean is that demon was made from inside of Yuki. From his heart."
"His heart?" Luka narrowed his silver eyes at Nova suspiciously.
"Hn. A persons heart is where everything is kept. Emotions, life, strength, you name it. Those things can give life to anything. So in Yuki's case, the strong feelings and his wanting to protect people important to him gave birth to 'that' demon."
"How do you know so much of this? Have you seen this happen yourself?" Kuroto questioned.
Nova closed his eyes and sighed.
"When...Back when we were kids, there was a slight problem."
"What kind of problem?"
Nova gave Kuroto a pained look.
"I was able to create barriers when I was young. After a few days with Yuki in the orphanage, I decided to make a barrier to protect us. One day, a pack of Duras somehow got through. Yuki and I were playing in the living room when they came in..."
[Fall February 26] - flash back
The moon light beamed through the window and illuminated the entire living room. It was a perfect reading light for Yuki as he and Nova flipped through a picture book of constellations. They sat together in one of the couches in their Pajamas.
"Hey Yuki! What is that one?" Nova asked the boy beside him.
"That's called 'Virgo'. It's made up of a lot of shiny stares. Pretty, huh?" Yuki answered.
Nova stared closely at the picture and waited for Yuki to turn the page, but Yuki suddenly leaned back as if he was trying to see something down the hall way. His expression was unreadable.
"Yuki?"
Nova turned his head towards the hall and sat up immediately. Two snake like monsters slithered slowly towards the two children. Nova grabbed Yuki's hand and tugged him towards the window so they could climb out and escape, but Yuki did not even move.
"Y-Yuki!?" Nova called out to him urgently. He suddenly felt the other boy lightly squeezed his hand.
Nova looked up at him and shielded his eyes when a strange bright blue light illuminate Yuki's small frame. Nova looked closer at his friend and was shocked when his eyes glowed bright blue.
- Flash back ended
The whole room feel silent when Nova trailed of. Luka gazed at Yuki with a soft expression. Guilt griped Nova's chest as he looked at his first best friend. Nova was the one that created the barrier and it was his responsibility to keep his only friend from harm.
"What happened after that?" Tsukumo asked. Breaking the science.
"I can't really remember anything else after that." Nova confessed as he brought his left hand to his face and rubbed his forehead.
"The whole room was bathed in a bright light and somehow I guess I was unconscious, because I woke up next to Yuki on the floor. The demons where gone and so was the barrier."
"And Yuki?"
"Yuki...was out like a light. He spent a couple of days. When ever he used that power, he would sleep for a few days."
Nova immediately looked up when he heard faint movement from Yuki's bed. He quickly turned his head to find Yuki sitting up in bed. His face downcast. Luka grabbed his shoulder and shook him.
"Yuki?"
Nova rushed over and keeled down next to the bed. Yuki lifted his head and turned towards him with closed eyes. As he opened his eyes Nova's body froze.
Yuki's eyes were no longer light brown. They were now light blue.
Okay! I just started school and I now fell the need to sleep for a few days -_-
I hope you like this chapter! Bye :)
