You can leave any suggestions in the review sections if you like! (Whatever is acceped)

Okeay! Stop blabbering and let's go to the story!

(P/s : I'm sorry if this story doesn't make sense to you. I'm not good with logic you see)

There is a tall man with foreign figure. He was standing beside the tree and was looking at his surrounding sharply.

The man, mikaela was finding the boy named yuu since he is been gone for crappy of 4 hours already.

He tried to sensed his blood by using his nosed...

He was closer,

I'm coming to you, yuu-chan...

Wait for me.

And then he left with a good few of leaps from tree to tree.

They were walking in a very narrow road when they tried to follow the light from earlier.

It is so small that only one person can go trough one on one at a time.

Shinoa behind yuu, poked her head out too see anything in front of him since he is been acting weird just a few seconds ago.

He was very talkative earlier, but he fall silence suddenly and he is been very quite now.

This kind of thing make her worried of what happens in front of them. But he won't answer even after she asked him what happen.

Then suddenly...

He lifted his hands up. One on his mouth and the other faced toward her, he was asking her to quite and stop her tracks at the same time.

Shinoa was frowning, but she obeyed and stay silence.

Both of them stay silence for a few seconds.

And nothing came out from the silence...

"Mind telling me what happen now?" Shinoa came closer to him.

Yuu faced her and said,

"That's weird, I'm pretty sure I heard something moving.." He was whispering, keep the voice level low.

"Like?" She looked at him bewildered. She doesn't heard anything other than his stupid rambling about guren out of no where before.

He then turn his head back to the sound that only him that notice,

With a very serious expression in his face, he stepped back a little to shinoa. Getting close to her. He was trying to protect her from anything that may harmed her ahead.

With asuramaru on his side, he tightened his grip on the sword. Ready to counter an attack if anything happens.

"Yuu-san?.."

Shinoa is still clueless about this and his act too.

But she could feel that he was noticing something dangerous since his body became stiffened suddenly.

"..."

"..."

"KRAAKKK!"

Sound of something moving from the bushes and between the trees.

"Yuuu-!" shinoa shouted from behind with unexplainable expression plastered on her face.

And then something stopped their tracked altogether.

"Yuu-chan!"

Mika shouted, jumping from the bushes and between the trees.

He is pretty sure he could see him here,

But...

Something is strange here.

It seems like his nose was tricking him.

His blood smelll..

Yuu-chan's blood smell...

Are.

Gone.

There is no one here,

So- who's blood is that?

Mika take a few couple round of head turning, but he didn't see any of the said boy figure.

He don't care what and who-

But if that thing tried to hurt him or tried to aparted him from yuu,

He will get rid of it.

Without mercy.

Mika eyes darkened with dark red and he moved from the placed quickly,

to find yuu quickly.

Quick.

He must be quick.

Quick!

"Yuuu-!" Shinoa shouted.

"W-what happened!?" She looked at his face that full of terrified emotion, this thing only make her worrier.

"Back!" Yuu answered roughly,

"We need to go back!" He then run away as fast as he can with shinoa in his arms.

But not in a romantic way of course,

He picked her up like any strayed sack bag and putted her on his shoulder hurriedly.

"W-wha-why!?" Shinoa faced his face. But yuu payed her no mind and keep running.

All that's matter now was her safety. So he run and tried to find a place to hide very quick.

That thing...

It was terrifying!

It was big.

Very big!

He run and run. But in the same time he could felt that thing came closer tailing them.

Could it be that they are following the wrong direction all this time?

Where is it all a trap set by the enemies?

Did the angel is actually aware of them being here?

He doesn't know the answer and he don't want to know.

With a cursed muttered under his breath,

He keep a steady beat of running with his fast beating heart.

His hold on shinoa tightened as sweat started to falling from his face and neck.

He was nervous, very nervous.

He didn't know that thing. He really don't know what's that thing.

But the aura...

Is very dark and thick, could be thicker than guren's aura when he was testing them to choose who is qualified to take them special cursed demon gear.

He didn't want to die here, not when he has someone to protect.

He need to protect shinoa at all cost.

"Yuu-san! Please calm down a little!" Shinoa croaked with a worried tone.

"How can I calm down! Now is not the time!" Yuu croaked back with a hurried tone.

"Yeah! But at least watch where you're going! You're going to get both of us killed!" She continued.

Well, she is right.

But what does she expect from him, he don't have some big ass brain to think any plans right now.

"GROOAAHHH!"

Something sounded not far from them. Yuu heard it and he keep up his paced more and more.

Shinoa realised his movements changing and she started to think any of the reasons why he behaved differently.

Yuu won't faced his back, so she take that as a hint there was something behind that he don't want to looked at.

She turned to faced the direction where she thought it could be.

But she doesn't see anything, only an empty forest and bushes with a lot of holes.

He was jumping and evade any holes that close to them.

For a normal person, his action would be count as weird since she couldn't see anything that could terrified him.

But there must be something there that yuu notices but no her.

Something...

Is it the same just like before?

She was touching the woods that had a very weird goo on it and the texture is unexplainable.

Yuu couldn't notice that thing..

So is it the same then?

Shinoa turned to yuu,

And then she turned back to the direction before.

It must be there,

She closed her eyes to focused more. Her eyebrows were linked and she was trying hard to use her demon power to observe the surrounding.

She could feel something unseen came toward them.

It is close,

Very close.

Within the radious of her scythe.

Then, she probably could probably do something about that.

An unseen, and only noticed by him...

An illusion.

Is it a one-way illusion? Or not?

Shinoa snapped her eyes backed again.

"Shi-chan!" She shouted her demon's name and a scythe appeared before her own very eyes.

"Destroy that illusion!" She instruct. And after that a very big demon came out from the scythe rushed forward the unseen.

Something happening and by any chances yuu stopped his track altogehter with a bewildered looked on his face.

The aura are gone.

He thought.

And then he turned around his head to the direction behind his back.

And it's not here,

That thing...

"Yuu-san, are you okay now?" Shinoa asked looked into his eyes.

Yuu's expression was unexplainable but he answer either way,

"...uumm..I guess..." He tried to focused a bit,

And the thing is really gone for real.

He then placed shinoa carefully before realised he was standing in front of a hole.

"Wai-wha! Yuu-san there is a hole ther-" shinoa tried to warned him but it is too late.

"Huh-?" before he could respond properly, both of them fell into the hole.

I'm pretty sure that this one is real,

Mika thought.

Still trying to tracked yuu out in the forest.

He went to the place that full of holes.

A very deep hole.

What's this?

It is very deep.

What does the human think when they did these?

Mika was riddling with his mind before came into the hole where he could smell yuu's blood from.

If he could smell his blood, that means he was hurting and wounded.

That would be very bad.

He can't let yuu get hurt just because of this silly mission that he don't want to be parted of.

He came closer and tried to smell it once again.

Wait...

It is not a blood. The smell were gone. Again.

Then-

Is it another trick!?

Mika quickly grabed his sword by his side and stayed on guard. His eyes sharp wandered around the forest.

"Who's there!? Show yourself!" Mika declared with a harsh voice.

Mika walk slowly toward the hole neared him.

Take a careful and wise step, in case if anything went out of hand suddenly.

He poked his head into the hole,

But couldn't see a thing since the hole are very dark.

So he take a risky desicion and jumped in straight away.

"Wai-wait! Don't jump!" He heard a voice as he was hoping in.

"..."

"..."

"KRAAK!"

He heard a cracked sound caming beneath his foots.

"Ah! Oh my-" the voice sounded panicked.

The voice are clear to him now because he is already in there.

It was a girl's voice.

It was that shinoa's human voice.

Then there is must be yuu in here.

So where's he?

Mika turned his head around.

Where's h-

"Ooooww! You're hurting me! Are you a dumbass or what!?" There is a voice echoed under his feet.

Who the hell is that voice is-

Mika moved his head to looked down and found that yuu is the thing that he was stepping on..

"Yuu-san, are you okay? That sounds hurt.." Shinoa lowered her body to help yuu out.

"Ah...YUU-CHAN! I'M SO SORRY!" Mika said apologetically. Moved aside and bowed down trying to help him out too.

Judging from the sound earlier, it looks like he accidentally broke yuu's backbone from the highfall.

So, because of that only reason. Yuu couldn't get up unless his demon's power healed it up for him.

Shinoa and mika was sitting beside him, waiting for the demon's power to healed him up.

Yuu's face has a bit of blood on it but it looked like it was wiped away.

"Yuu-chan...what happened?" Mika asked concern.

Yuu looked at him and then he turned his head to shinoa.

Shinoa has a very weird expression on her face, it looks like she was linked to that wound of him.

Did she hurt him?

But why?

...it doesn't matter. He is going to hurt her right away then.

No matter who she is..the humans must want to hurt yuu either way.

Even if she is someone yuu called his family.

Mika take out his sword out and immediately pointed it on shinoa's neck.

"Spit it out" he said flat. With a deadly looked in his eyes.

Shinoa was startled, but she doesn't act to protect her herself either way. She put both of her hands to her side, like surrendering.

"Wha- mika, what are you doing!?" Yuu panicked for a second there.

"Shut up yuu-chan. I'm going to kill this woman if she hurt you" mika answered, straight to the point.

"...um...mika-san...could you calm down a little...?" Shinoa said with a careful voice. Just like handling a very sensitive timer bomb, that will explode anytime.

"I need no answer from you" he answer flat again.

He start to think to trust her a little and this is what she did to him?

He knew he couldn't trust any of these humans.

He need to take yuu with him quickly after he is done with this woman.

"..I'll explain everything about what happened to yuu-san..so, please calm yourself down..." Shinoa still trying to compromise.

"I don't need any orders from you!" Mika spit his venom again.

"No! I wasn't making any orders!..just...please..." Shinoa pleaded.

Mika still not moving his sword away from her.

He start to think that he couldn't trust any of these humans other than yuu alone.

He start to thrusted his sword forward toward her neck. Very quickly.

Then-

Yuu stopped his act immediately with a very harsh tone came from him.

"That's it! Stop it mika! Are you an idiot or what!? Are you really going to not trust any of my family members at all!? I can't let you hurt her any further! Shinoa hasn't done anything to me! And that's that!"

Mika was startled with his harsh tone and drew his sword back to his side.

There is a very mad expression on yuu's face when he was facing mika. He looked pissed.

"Yu-yuu-chan...I...I..." Mika stuttered, he don't know what to say anymore. All of his words were stucked in his throat. It won't go out even if he forced it out.

"Yuu-san! It's fine..he was just trying to protect you that's al-" shinoa croaked suddenly, tried to calm both of them down.

"Shinoa you shut up too. It has been more than two times already he acted rudely toward you. He need to realised about his bad behaviour!" Yuu shot back at her.

Shinoa tried to came with another counterback, but stopped when he shot a mad look at her. He looks scary.

Mika start to think that,

Yes, shinoa is part of him so called new family.

But he is the one he had first, with other their old family.

There is no anyone other than him, yuu and them. Of course he couldn't let that yuu trust any other more people. They re going to hurt him, yuu will be hurted by them.

He is the only family member that yuu only has left. He can't trust other people than him. And he never thought of building another family with them because he knows that will hurt him more.

That's why yuu only needs him now...

No more pain,sadness and grief.

"..."

"..."

Silence,

Is the only words that could describe the situations now they are in.

Not after shinoa started to speaked up again.

"...you know mika-san..." Shinoa looked at mika into his eyes with a little smile plastered on her face.

"...yuu-san...was just..." She averted her eyes away for a second and then return back to looked into his.

"...helping me out from the falling..." Her hand was putted nicely on her lap and her gestured worked like she was coaxing a sulking little child in front of her.

"That's all.." She ended it after she said "ahaha..he kind of accidentally...landed his face first after that...so that's why.." And then she averted her eyes to yuu's bruised nose that looked like it was swollen a bit.

Mika was looking at that direction as well,

And he started to let out a little giggle after that.

"Haha, yuu-chan is an idiot" he smiled a bit.

Upon looking at that mika wasn't acting like emo brat anymore, he shot a counter back saying,

"What- the land itself that came to my face on it's own.." He glared to his side, don't want to met with any other of their eyes. He was blushed a little thinking of how embarrassing that thing is.

"Ha-ha, yeah. Right" shinoa looked at his direction with a mocking face.

"...shut up.." Yuu glared back at her.

Then shinoa and mika laughed happily looking at his sulking face that yuu was making. They are enjoying themselves too much. And after that, yuu joined in to laugh as well with them.

Now threesome of them are together in the forest walking in a group as shinoa became the leader leading their path again.

As they were walking to the same direction before, toward the light again but this time they tried to find a bigger route and luckily they found if and went straight away into it.

Yuu was pondering about earlier event in his head while keep his steady footsteps following both of them to the destination.

He thought that, by the time passes by.

Shinoa has been very important to him more than he felt toward mika.

It is weird but he don't know why.

Could it be that she is becoming something closer than his late family?

He wonder why again..

But it seems like he can't get anything out from his thick skull at all.

Suddenly, asuramaru spoked to him.

"Are you really that densed?" He said.

"About what?" Yuu ask.

"About your feelings for her of course.."

"... what about my feelings?"

"Do I really need to spell anything out for you?" He sound frustrated.

"Don't you love her?" He continued.

"Yeah...I do..and that is because she is my family" he answer nonchalantly and spontaneously just like he used to said. And that's when he start to realised that it is start to taste really weird to call her just his family.

"..."

"...asuramaru?.."

He fall silence suddenly,

Before he spoke back again.

"..think whatever you want. Your feelings are not going to lie to you though. And plus, it could give me a very good benefits if you start to acknowledge that desire of yours.."

After that he fall silence completely..

My desire?

For shinoa?

Like what?

Is it different from the feeling that just want to be together with her? Like a family?

He looked at shinoa for a good few seconds. The seconds that past by seems like eternity as he stared at her gorgeous lavender hair, beautiful hazel eyes and her cute little body that it is easy to carry.

He don't know since when he started to think of her differently. She seems like a very different person in his eyes now.

He started off by staring at the top of her head and went down to the bottom of her legs.

He started felt the urges to touch her.

From the tip of her hair all the way down her body to her bottom tip of her legs.

Is it what they called desire?

Desire to touch?

To touch more than you regularly allowed to.

The more he stared at her,

The more he could feel that so called 'desire' to grow in him.

He don't know why this is happening to him and he want to know why.

Maybe he could ask guren about it, he probably do know something about this right?

Before he could realised what was happening, mika ask him with question that sounds,

"Are you sick yuu-chan? Your face are really red and you're breathing heavily too"

Sick?

Ah...

Maybe he could be sick afteral.

With this thing that so called as 'desire'...

Shinoa suddenly stopped on her footstep as she lifted her heads up make the others looked at the direction as well.

"..I think..we found it.." Shinoa said softly. Her eyes widened a bit looked shocked at what she saw.

Yuu and mika too, was shocked at what they are seeing at in front of them.

The angel they are looking for,

Is right before their eyes with a very big wings paired behind it's back.

The angel was a guy too, but his hair was black just like yuu's.

The differences is that his hair isn't spiky, instead the hair was very short and was combed to his side.

The angel seems like it won't do anything, so they guess that the thing is being passive at night is true.

But just for safety cause they make decision to report the location right away and to not explore any further toward the angel direction.

As they were going back, another weird thing happened,

Once they step into the same way out. They arrived immediately from behind the tent that was pitched at their campsite.

It is weird,

Very weird.

But it is seems like shinoa is the only one that noticed it as the both of them, yuu and mika seems like he doesn't realise anything about it.

That's when she thought that she should report this matter immediately to guren and discuss their strategies out with everyone.

P/s : I'll tried to post out a lot of chapter this time, but if I'm by any chance was busy then, it will be posted every 2 weeks.
