Rinku's Sick, and Touya's Hurt?!
'I can't wait for today!' thought a smiling Kat as she walked over to Suzuka's house.
At Suzuka's house:
"I'm here!" Kat announced.
Then she noticed it was awfully quiet around the usual loud household. Curiosity got the better of her and she began to look around.
'Where is everyone?'
"Mornin' sheila."
Kat turned around to see it was Chu. Then she noticed that he had a rather serious look on his face. This was odd, because Chu usually had a goofy grin on his face.
"Mornin'. Where is everyone Chu?"
"Well Rinku's sick and Touya's hurt." Chu said as he was getting ready to leave.
"WHAT?! What happened?! And where are you going?"
"Training." Chu said as he left. 'Gotta make sure that THING didn't bring any mates along.'
'Well that was odd. I wonder why he was in such a hurry to get out…well, I better go look after Rinku and yell at him for not taking a shower after playing in the rain.'
Kat began heading up the stairs into Rinku's room. There she found Rinku trying to get ready.
"And where do you think you're going mister?"
"I gotta hel-ACHOO!"
"I don't think so! You should be in bed! Plus why didn't you take a shower after I told you too?"
Rinku looked up for a second while putting a finger to his lip trying to recall the reason why he didn't take a shower right away.
"Hmmm…"
Then it hit him. After Kat had left Chu had announced that he had bought the movie "The Grudge" and they all decided to watch it. Right after the movie though...all six demons were scared…shitless.
"Rinku…Rinku?" Kat looked at Rinku who was beginning to pale. "Okay mister! You look awful!"
"Huh?" Rinku finally snapped out of it.
"BED! NOW!"
"Fi-ACHOO! nuh…"
Rinku then groggily climbed in to his bed grumbling the whole time.
"I'll make you some soup in a little while ok? Or are you hungry right…now"
Kat had to pause on her sentence because she realized Rinku was fast asleep. She smiled and tucked him in.
After making sure not to disturb him Kat began walking towards Touya's room to see just how bad he was hurt. She then quietly opened the door only to see Touya staring up at the ceiling.
"Touya?" Kat whispered.
Touya was snapped out of his thoughts and turned his head to see Kat standing in the door way. He smiled.
"Good morning." With that he tried to get up.
"Woah woah woah! You should stay in bed too!"
"I guess your right, huh?" He gave her another smile.
"What happened?"
Touya just looked at her.
Flashback:
As usual all five demons were training, since Rinku was under the weather. Then Suzuka sensed something nearby.
"We should check that out huh mates." Chu was the first to speak.
The rest nodded in agreement. When they got close to where the spirit energy was coming from they found an ogre with no hair, grey skin and cold grey eyes.
"SOULS!" It screamed. "I WANT HUMAN SOULS!"
"Tch. Another D-class Demon." Shishi said with disgust.
It screamed again. "I SMELL THE DELICIOUS SCENT OF A HUMAN GIRL HERE!"
Touya's eyes widened in realization. 'Kat! Since she's been here so much she's left her scent here!'
Touya immediately jumped out from hiding and summoned his ice sword. The ogre whirled around and tried to claw at Touya. He succeeded…but Touya ended up slashing him in half horizontally. Touya grunted, he now had an injury to his stomach.
"Woah nelly! What'd you go and do that for ey'?" Jin flew over to Touya.
Touya tried to stand straight, but started to fall over until Chu caught him.
"Easy there mate."
All four demons helped Touya back to the house. Suzuka treated his wounds and told him to rest.
"What if there's more of that demon." Touya asked.
"What's going on everybody? ACHOO!" Rinku walked in, he was wiping his nose with his index finger.
"A D-class demon came lookin' for souls ta eat." Chu replied.
"Oh no!" Rinku exclaimed.
"We're going to scan the area to make sure there are no more of them." Shishi replied casually.
"Yes. Meanwhile you," Suzuka turned to Touya. "And Rinku stay here and rest up."
"Aw man-ACHOO! I miss out on all the fun stuff." Rinku said groggily.
"Dontcha worry Touya! Everythin' is under control." Jin said as he wiggled his ears and gave a goofy grin.
"What about Kat?!" Touya exclaimed.
"Don't worry about her mate. I'll stay behind until she comes. Then I'll go out scannin' with everyone else."
"But..."
"He said don't worry! Touya…do you like her?" Suzuka questioned.
Touya blinked and then a slight blush crept onto his face.
"I knew it as soon as I said you had-ACHOO! The hots for her!" Rinku exclaimed.
"HA! The ice master Touya is turnin' red as a tomato!" Chu said.
All five demons started to laugh. Touya on the other hand was not amused, in fact his eye started to twitch in annoyance.
"Alright I think that's enough of torturing Touya. Let's go." Suzuka suggested. "And you young man! Bed!" Suzuka pointed at Rinku.
"Aw man. ACHOO!"
With that the five demons left Touya to rest. Touya thought for a while.
'Do I really like her?'
End Flashback:
'Touya? Hello anyone there?"
Touya snapped out of his thoughts.
"Huh?" Touya gave Kat a clueless look.
'He looks so cute when he's clueless like that…wait... what?!' Kat thought.
"S-so how are you feeling? Do you need anything?"
"No. Not anything I can think of right now." Touya gave her a small smile.
Kat started to blush.
"Ok. Just making sure."
"Well…there is one thing…"
"Yes."
"You."
'Dammit! That came out wrong!' Touya thought as he mentally slapped himself.
Kat blushed even more.
"Me...Y-you want me?"
"I-I meant as in company."
Both were blushing like mad as the thought of them wanting each other crept in the corner of their minds.
"O-of course, I'll stay and talk with you but I'll have to go as soon as Rinku wakes up. He'll probably be hungry…you don't want anything to eat?"
"No thank you. Besides I doubt I could eat."
'Not with this injury.' Touya thought.
"What do you mean?"
Touya looked down and lowered the bed sheet so Kat could see where his injury was.
"Does it hurt?" Kat lightly touched the bandaged wound.
"Not right now it doesn't." Touya looked at her, making her blush.
"Touya's got the hots."
Both Kat and Touya looked at the doorway only to see Rinku grinning ear to ear rocking back and forth on his heels. His statement only made Kat blush more and made Touya twitch his eye in annoyance.
"S-so are you feeling better Rinku?" Kat asked. 'That was a really short nap.'
"Yeah a little." Rinku wiped his nose with his finger. "But I am a little hungry."
"I'll make you some chicken soup right now okay." Kat got up and looked towards Touya. "I'll come by later to see if you need anything."
Touya smiled. "Thank you."
"Yeah! Like a KISS!" Rinku said as he made kissing noises.
Later on:
Kat had made Rinku some chicken soup and as soon as he was done she sent him to bed…again. When Kat went to check up on Touya he was asleep as well. Kat couldn't help but noticed he had no shirt as she closed the door flustered.
'Woo. Gotta get a hold of myself. I think I'll do the dishes now.'
But as Kat washed the dishes she looked out the window and a saw a bush. When she looked closer she noticed there was some type of round berry on them. As soon as she finished she went to go check them out. They were black berries. Suddenly she got an idea.
'I bet everyone would feel better if I made pie! I mean Chu was acting weird this morning, Rinku is sick and Touya's hurt…And who doesn't like pie!'
Kat got up and started to head towards the house to get a container for the berries. Then she saw more berries up further.
'I wonder if they're a different type…'
She decided to go check it out. She was now further away from the safety of the house…but its not like anything was going to happen. She kept walking until she came to the bush.
'Nope they're the same…so much for that.'
CRACK!
Kat turned around to see what the noise was…
Meanwhile Touya shot up from his bed. He sensed spirit energy. Not only that, it was a demon's energy…one he didn't recognize.
Rinku burst into his room.
"You sense it too?" Touya asked.
Rinku only nodded.
Then a scream pierced the silence of the forest. It was one Touya knew immediately.
"KAT!"
