White-winged angel of the Scarlet Eyes
They left the house, and as they were about to enter the forest, a scream cried out into the night.
"MOM!" said Kurapika as he rushed back the house.
Great! Just great! Now what the hell am I supposed to do?! I can't catch him thanks to my damn low blood pressure! Satoshi thought angrily.
As he was lost in his agitated thoughts, he heard another scream, this time from the boy. He completely forgot everything about his low blood pressure and everything else as he broke into a dead run in the direction the scream came from. He was tiring quickly, but he no longer cared. He gave his word to the woman that he'd protect her son; he wasn't about to break his promise. By the time he finally reached Kurapika, the boy was near death, his eyes an eerie crimson red.
"NO!" Satoshi shouted as he ran to Kurapika.
"Well, well…looks like there was a second brat that was hiding. The boss is going to be happy about this," the fiend cackled as he prepared to kill Satoshi.
"Feh, you morons think that you can scare me?! I've dealt with a monster who's more cruel than you'll ever hope to be!" snarled Satoshi.
"Ha-ha-ha…I highly doubt that boy…" cackled the killer.
"So you doubt my word on it, eh? In that case…" said Satoshi as he silently whispered to Kurapika, "No matter what happens, don't anger him. Krad is impossible to deal with when he's angry. So long as you keep quiet and don't let go!"
"Okay…" said Kurapika as he held onto Satoshi's shirt with a death grip. His eyes widened when Satoshi was surrounded by a mysterious light which enveloped them both. His head drooped, and his arms spread out. He was in a shape similar to a cross. White feathers blew all around the room as white wings covered them.
When the wings opened, they revealed a blond-angel with golden eyes.
"I take it you're the boy Satoshi-sama wants to live?"
"Y-y-yes…"
"Be grateful that he convinced me to go along…" snorted the angel.
"A-a-are you Krad?!" said Kurapika in shock. The angel gave him a look that said, "What do you think?!"
"So you are the one that boy called more ruthless than us. He must have been bluffing!" snorted the killer.
"Apparently you've never heard of me… I am called Krad, but most refer to me as the Homicidal Blond!" said Krad as he took a white feather out which started to glow.
"Is that supposed to scare us?!" laughed the killer.
The feather kept glowing brighter and brighter until Krad unleashed a devastating magic blast! Kurapika's grip slackened in shock as the attack hit it's intended target. Slowly he started to slip; Krad noticed this and carefully put the frightened Kuruta child in a secure place where he wouldn't fall down.
The killer stood up, seemingly unharmed. Krad snorted in annoyance and took to the sky. Kurapika felt the wind rush on his face from his spot. He continued watching as Krad launched attack after attack on the murderers. It wasn't until he saw the symbol on one of their backs that he realized who they were!
"It can't be…"
"What?"
"Those people…they're from the gang of killers known as the Spiders!"
"How can you tell?"
"The tattoo on their backs…it's a 12 legged spider with a number inscribed. Only members of the Spider have THAT mark!" said Kurapika in anger.
Krad decided to ask later. He shot another blast at one of the Spiders. Suddenly something struck Krad's wing! He started to fall, his hair turning from blond to sky blue in moments! Satoshi's eyes opened quickly as he felt the wind.
"SHIT! Krad you moron!" snarled Satoshi annoyed. Kurapika grasped his shirt in fear as the ground grew closer with every second.
NO! I will not let him die like this! I WON'T LET IT END THIS WAY! Satoshi mentally shouted. Kurapika's eyes turned Scarlet red once more and suddenly something inside the blue-haired teen clicked. Gold wings started forming on Satoshi this time, and his eyes were slowly turning into another color. But it quickly became clear that he wasn't turning into Krad when his eyes finally changed from blue to…SCARLET RED?!
Satoshi didn't know what was happening to him, but if it saved them from falling to death, he had no complaints. In fact, the wings that now grew on his back felt soothing…it was definitely not something by Krad! His eyes opened again and he realized that they were no longer falling! He knew that he didn't have enough energy left to even fight, so he did the one thing he could. He flew into the horizon, and Kurapika silently cried. When Satoshi fulfilled his promise, he felt himself being pulled into his mind again. He woke up and found himself back in his home.
"Was it all a dream?" Satoshi wondered aloud when he saw the gold feather lying next to his hand…
