Chapter 2
The rise from the rubble
With Kala
At the Green king hide out well the remains of it. Kala knows she just knows she has to find the green or grey king to make everyone happy well maybe Yukari and Sukuna.
She noses around the rubble in wolf form maybe breaking her promise but hay whatever.
She has the power to phase so jumps through the mound of rock sliding easily through it. She sniffs around until she finds the grey king well what's left of him.
She smiles a wolfy grin then drags him back through the rock with her making sure she manages to pull him through as well.
When outside she reverts back to human form then places her hands on the grey king whose wounds heal, he coughs then sit up shaking his head.
'Who are you' Tenkei asks his voice rusty and cracked
'Kala I brought you back from the dead I'm sorry I couldn't bring the green king back' Kala answers
'It's fine is the blue king still around?' Tenkei asks
'Please don't kill him' Kala says at is dawns on her
'well I am not making you a promise I cannot keep goodbye little strain' Tenkei says getting up and leaving
Kala then knows she has made a very big mistake one she has to fix somehow, to go back to where it started with Tatara of course find him fix things well maybe sort of fix things as if the blue king dies at least Mikoto still will have Tatara.
She wolfs up then goes in search of the answer she seeks.
Mikoto and Munakta
'I have to go to work' Munakta tells Mikoto
'Really?' Mikoto asks
'I do' Munakta replies getting up
'Do I not even get a hug?' Mikoto asks
'Don't push it' Munakta tells him
Mikoto also gets up then pads softly around to the blue king then kisses him gently.
'Are you trying to prove something?' Munakta asks pulling away
'Just that you love me really' Mikoto grins
'Of course I love you' Munakta sighs
'I know you do also could I borrow some clothes?' Mikoto asks
'Fine' Munakta tells him
'I know you wouldn't care if I was dressed or not but they might' Mikoto points out
'You see right through me' Munakta smiles
Mikoto chuckles then kisses the blue king again when the phone interrupts the moment.
'Really' Munakta groans
Then he wanders to find the phone while Mikoto borrows some of Munakta's clothes mentally going yes at least he's sort of the same size as me.
'Resi are you alright' Mikoto calls
He walks through to the living room where the blue king is stood visibly shaking phone in one hand. Mikoto walks across to him takes the phone, places it down.
'Resi?' Mikoto asks again
'That was Seri the grey king is back' Munakta manages
'He was dead before I was' Mikoto answers carefully
'Ah he wasn't then I killed him, so he might want to kill me' Munakta responds
'Then we go know before he finds you' Mikoto tells the blue king
'Ok then and what are you wearing?' Munakta asks
'Your clothes apparently your skinner than me' Mikoto answers
Munakta sighs then picks up his sword then walks towards the front door followed by Mikoto who shadows the king to protect him from harm.
Fushimi and Yata
'Where is he?' Yata asks
'which one of them?' Fushimi counters
'Mikoto and your boss actually' yata answers after a few seconds
'Seri rang them I'm not sure it was him but I want to make sure the captain is safe' Fushimi tells Yata
'Munakta can take care of himself and he has Mikoto with him' Kusanagi says trying to help
'That is true' Fushimi answers
Yata looks at Fushimi then wraps his arms around Fushimi as he knows how worried Fushimi is. Fushimi leans on Yata's shoulder staring towards the door.
Back with Mikoto and Munakta
'You know I sort of feel like we are being watched' Mikoto tells Munakta
'It will be fine' Munakta tells him
Mikoto raises an eyebrow like that's what you're going with. Then a movement behind him makes him turn around then he knows he was right and they were being followed.
'Is that the grey king?' Mikoto asks
'Yes, it is' Munakta answers
'Yes, it is I Iwafune Tenkei and I am back to have my revenge thanks to that strain' Tenkei tells them
'Maybe we should have dealt with Kala instead of letting Fushimi and Yata handling things you never try and make a deal with a strain it never works' Munakta sighs
'You think?' Mikoto asks
'I got you back though' Munakta replies
'I was wondering why Mikoto was back' Tenkei sighs
'Resi behind me' Mikoto tells him
'No not going to work Mikoto' Tenkei says retrieving his gun
'I hoped he didn't have that Suoh' Munakta tells Mikoto
Then Tenkei fires his gun Munakta shoves Mikoto out of the way but fails to raise his sword in time to deflect the bullet which hits him and sends him falling to the ground eyes closed. Tenkei turns to Mikoto then walks away as Mikoto is more worried about Munakta than chasing down Tenkei.
'Resi why did you do that?' Mikoto whispers tears in his eyes
'Couldn't lose you again' Munakta murmurs
'You idiot' Mikoto tells him
'Suoh don't leave me' Munakta tells him before passing out
'I won't' Mikoto tells him
Fortunately Sceptre four it's good that Seri and Fushimi where worried by the fact Munakta has been missing as long as he has so went looking for him unfortunately not so brilliant is the fact the pair have been found by Fushimi and Yata.
'WHAT DID YOU DO?' Fushimi demands
'Got him shot' Mikoto answers
Fushimi already has his phone out to call an ambulance for the fallen king. Yata has pulled off his jumper to try and stop the blood flow.
'Don't lose him or we will lose our heads because Seri will kill us' Fushimi tells them
'Yes she probably will kill us any way' Yata adds
'You had to tell her' Mikoto sighs
'I am sure I would have found out' Seri answers appearing followed by an ambulance
The paramedics take the blue king and Mikoto who apparently maybe in shock.
'We follow call Shiro' Seri tells Fushimi
Fushimi nods then texts Kuroh who will alert Shiro for them.
'We need to find the strain and Tenkei' Seri tells the pair
'I know we do' Fushimi answers
Seri sighs then walks off the pair following in her wake.
