A/N: Alrighty ! I am pumped up to update again because of you wonderful readers ^^ Thank you! u guys inspire me, seriously xD
Rin was quiet for a while pondering about what Ukobach said, "No, I haven't forgotten..."
The demon shook his head, 'I know that you haven't forgotten, but i'm not sure if you understand.'
"She is a spirit of a dead little girl, what else is there to understand?" He raised his voice a bit.
'That's just it Rin! She's a spirit! But haven't you ever wondered how could she have a physical body and live so normally?' Rin has finished washing and dried his hand with a towel, and walked out of the kitchen to the dining hall, he looked back at Ukobach.
"...I have been wondering about that..." He said in a hushed tone this time.
Ukobach sighed, 'That's why I'm saying she can be dangerous... something dark might be involved here...'
'Hey guys what are you talking about?' Kuro came inside the Dining Hall to join the two
"Kuro, where's Yurin?"
'Upstairs taking a nap.'
Rin half smiled, "oh"
'Kuro can you tell Rin what ghosts are?' Ukobach turned to the cat, he wanted him to explain since he knows more about this than he does. Kuro tilted his head to the side.
"No need, I know what those are, they're spirit of dead people that haunts." Rin crossed his arms feeling a little irritated that these guys are lecturing him about some simple things that even little kids know. To his surprise, the Cat Sith shook his head disapprovingly.
'No Rin. If ghosts are mere spirits then why haven't they left this world? Surely when you die, everything else does, including body and spirit'
"So?" He arrogantly asked, listening half-heartedly
Kuro sighed, his master is clearly not paying one hundred percent attention to them.
'It means, that ghosts aren't exactly what books or other people say they are. Ghosts are bound to this world because something more powerful than spirit or any other things is keeping them here. Something that never dies.' Nevertheless, he still tried to explain.
"And what is that?" Rin looked at him, finally getting his interest.
'Memory'
"Memory?" he repeated, the cat nodded his head.
'Memories are the greatest treasure anyone could have. It's not love or friendship or whatever, cos without memory, those things cease to exist in everyone's hearts. Even if you die, they are still left. Some memories hold strong desire and is desperate to repeat a certain moment in their lives. That moment is what they hold most dear that before they could finally rest, they want it to happen again.'
"And that's why we're doing this. To find that certain moment, to find that unfinished business she has here, so she could finally rest." Rin pressed his point "And what does that have to do with me telling her a story?"
Kuro's face turned dead serious, 'What if her real mother already told her about how she fell in love with Yurin's real father? And what if she suddenly remembers?'
Rin looked down. If Yurin does find out that he made up that story, she might get angry that he lied to her. "She'll get mad?"
Ukobach nodded, 'And then she'll start to doubt you are her mother, she'll start to doubt everything and go crazy. Ghosts should never feel a strong negative emotion while they are on their quest to find that moment.'
"She might turn into a demon?" Rin more of stated than asked. The thought bothered him... a lot. If ever Yurin does turn into a demon and goes wild, for sure Yukio will shoot her without any hesitation. He didn't want that. He didn't want the poor innocent little girl to go in that brutal way, Rin wants her to pass on in peace.
The two nodded.
'Don't worry Rin, we're just saying to be careful in things you say to her... And don't mention to her that she's already dead.' Kuro nuzzled his head on Rin's leg to comfort him
Rin smiled at him then nodded.
"Hey guys, don't tell Yukio about-"
"don't tell about Yukio what?" The three froze, knowing whose voice was that.
"Ah Yukio." Rin greeted casually as he turned around, he paled a bit when Yukio was looking at him with eyes narrowed getting suspicious.
"It's best not to keep anything from me Rin." He said in a low dangerous tone.
Rin sighed, "Okay you got me…"
Yukio raised a brow waiting for him to continue, Kuro and Ukobach got nervous that Rin will tell his brother about the potential threat of Yurin.
The older twin grinned widely, "I was about to surprise you because I will be cooking your favorite again at dinner… but since you already know… I'll just postpone it for another time." He said in a teasing tone.
Ukobach and Kuro sighed in relief, good thing Rin could lie so easily they thought.
Yukio scoffed, "Fine." His voice was hinted with a little disappointment, but it didn't show.
Rin watched as Yukio went upstairs to their room; he put his hands to his waist and scrunched his face,
"Boy, I didn't know he would finish his mission so soon, it has only been 2 hours since he left and I heard it was a really tough one… damn you Yukio for being amazing" He was slightly envious that his brother is already a good exorcist while he was just an esquire.
'Nice going Rin!' Kuro jumped onto his shoulder while Ukobach went back to the Kitchen.
"Huh? Nice going what?" He asked his familiar
'Eh! Oh…nothing…forget about it, I guess' It appears Rin really was planning on surprising Yukio.
Rin shrugged, "Sometimes you're so weird Kuro."
'I only take up after my master.' He grinned playfully at Rin earning him a flick on his cat nose
It was almost midnight Yurin was already snoring at Rin's bed while the owner of the said bed was sleeping at his brother's, all because 'mommy and daddy has to sleep together' she said. Yukio on the other hand was still awake finishing his work. Finally done, he stacked the papers, closed the books, and turned off the lamp with a yawn.
He went to bed, he and Rin shared in the meantime, and crawled under the sheets.
"You're not helping me out much on the parenting, dumbass Yukio.." He heard Rin mumble
"Thought you were asleep." Rin shifted to his side facing Yukio who was lying on his back.
"I was."
"ah..." The younger replied hoping his brother would go back to sleep so he could also.
"You should spend time with Yurin too... we never know, her last wish may be to spend time with her 'awesome' daddy." Through the darkness, Yukio could see Rin smirking at him from the corner his eye.
" I will, don't worry..." Yukio gave him a mischievous look. "...mommy."
Rin blushed with wide eyes then turned his back from Yukio. "che, just do what you said."
