The Four Gods: Dragon Heir
I'd like to thank everyone for reviwing and sorry I haven't undated this story in so long. I hope you enjoy this chapter.
"Nay Nay?"
I heard Hazumi ask me as I just lay with my face in one of my pillows. My head feeling like a jack hammer was drilling in my skull, from last night's party.
'Agh.I will NEVER trust Ichigo's special lemonade.'
I thought threw the pain of my first hangover, curacy of Ichigo.
"Good Morning, dear cousin!"
The door to my bed room banged open, making my ear drums boom. Ichigo's voice was not helping as I pulled the covers over my head in an attempt to block her out and save my ear drums.
"Aww. You're suffering your first hangover!"
She yelled out happily, annoying me to no end and hurting my skull. Suddenly, she jumped on my bed sending me up in the air for a bit. She wasn't that heavy, so Zetsu had probably jumped with her.
I felt something fall next to me before Ichigo started to shout in my ear.
"Hurt's doesn't it?"
She asked cheerfully, as I pull the blanket tighter over my head, curling into a ball so she would just be quite.
"Such is the result of having my Special Cupid lemonade!"
She yelled, jerking the bed as I heard something fall off my bed and a thug on my floor.
"Nay Nay Nay?"
Hazumi asked Ichigo, since she had fallen off the bed, not surprised.
"Owie. That hurt."
I heard Ichigo grumble before Hazumi spoke up, more mind full of my involuntary hangover.
"Nay Nay, Nay Nay Nay. Nay Nay Nay."
Thank you Hazumi.
"Wha?"
Ichigo asked, she doesn't understand a bit of Dragon.
"She said you should shut up and let Azure sleep off the hang over."
I heard Zetsu's voice scold Ichigo, thank heaven she knew Dragon almost a well as a Ryuujin.
"Awww. But Uncle Goh wanted us to watch her incase she wanted to go see auntie Opal's gra-"
Ichigo was saying before something cut her off. I don't know if it was Zetsu, Hazumi or she shut her self up but she reminded me what yesterday was.
My eyes widen and I shot up out of my bed, the room felt like it was spinning and I flopped back down into my bed. I closed my eyes, willing away the spinning.
"Azure-chan?"
Ichigo called my name softly this time.
"Why?"
I asked her, cracking my eyes open. She was in her white house coat with her hair in a pony tail, a pink tank top and pajama pants with little red birds on them. I couldn't see Zetsu as I felt her weight leave the bed.
Ichigo looked at me worriedly.
"Why does every one want to keep me from my mother's grave?"
I asked her, she nervously glanced out my glass doors. A soft tapping coming from them.
I turned my head to look out the glass doors to see the outline of a man with short light green hair wearing yellow pants and a sleeveless shirt from my blurred vision.
"Daichi?"
I called out and Ichigo looked at me with wide eyes, then at the man.
"Let him in."
I told Ichigo, but she just smirked. I rolled my eyes and looked to Hazumi, who nodded and opened the door for the man. Letting him step in and close to my bed.
"Oh! I guess you'll be plenty distracted now."
She said as she giggled, looking Daishi up and down, examining his body like she did when she spotted a potential boyfriend.
I would roll my eyes but I didn't care much to correct her. As he kneeled by the edge of my bed, His blue eyes showing worry.
"Daichi, why are they keeping me away from her grave?"
I asked him. If any one could give me a striate answer, it would be him.
He frowned, glancing at Ichigo who was eyes him like a starving lion looks at raw meat, before looking back at me and answering my question so Ichigo wouldn't under stand him.
"Ra, Ra Ra Ra. Ra Ra Ra Ra."
I looked at him shocked.
"No."
I couldn't believe it had happened, to my mother's grave. It had been desecrated and destroyed.
Her headstone...
Her coffin...
Her remains...
All of it...
Was tainted by the same demons that had killed her so long ago.
"How long ago did this happen?"
I asked him, Ichigo started to panic and tackled Daichi as soon as he opened his mouth, pinning him to the floor.
"Don't tell her!"
Ichigo yelled as she covered his open mouth with her bare hands, not a good thing to do to a dragon.
"OWWW!"
She yelled, shaking her hands, splattering blood all over. She had cut her palms on his teeth but I was focusing on the bright red blood.
'No! Stop! Please stop!'
I could still hear her scream as the demons had their way with her before ripping her skin off, slowly.
'Précieux! Partir d'ici!'
I could remember hearing her screaming at me to run, but I had stood frozen in my place. The demons were merciless as they did those things to my mother right in front of me.
Then…
I blacked out.
----
Zetsu's P.O.V.
----
I was fixing up a hangover remedy that my grandfather, from my mother's side, taught me. Ichigo was Azure and Hazumi, which I regretted as I heard Daichi's muffled dragon speech from Azure's small blue kitchen.
"Don't tell her!"
I heard Ichigo shout.
She really needed to understand that not every one has a high alcohol tolerance, especially if they were under age.
I don't see why we have to keep her from aunt Opal's grave site. She deserves to know what happened to it. The sooner she does, the more time she has to get over it. I didn't see why Azure still cried over her mother 10 years later.
'She's not a full Ryuujin, Zetsume.'
Ho spoke to me from inside my head.
He was my sprit turtle, like the Ryuujins, the other clans have sprit animals that guard our soul and tattoos, the Kamegami clan run the Jewelry market as well as the black market. As such, some Kamegami's are tempted by the underworld, but the turtles keep them from truning on the clans and family members.
My turtle fused with my soul to be with me, it's common in the clans to fuse with their animal so that they may become one and their souls are fully protected. Only few have done this successes fully, but the animal can never separate with their owners soul. Thus locking them inside our bodies.
'I forget. Orochi-sama places her so high.'
I told him back, mixing the drink for Azure.
'She was deeply connected with her mother, and she was only 7 when it happened right in front of her.'
He told me. He was a wise 500 year old turtle.
I looked at the mixture and headed back into Azure's room with it.
When I came in, Ichigo was shaking her hands, and Azure was lying back in bed, Hazumi gently nudging her with her nose. I noticed that Azure's eyes were open and I could see the whites of her eyes. Coming over quickly I saw spots of red over the sheets.
"Ah! Zetsu! Help!"
Ichigo yelled panicky for me looking at her she showed me her hands, they were drenched in crimson blood, the wounds bleeding more by the second. What could she have cut her self with?
My question was answered as Daichi rose up of the floor behind Ichigo in his human form. The same crimson coming down from his fangs, telling me Ichigo made the stupidest mistake of her life.
Setting the glass down on the night stand I looked at Hazumi.
"Make sure she drinks that when she wakes up."
I told her in dragon, she nodded and I grabbed Ichigo by her upper arm, pulling her out of the room. Wounds inflicted by a dragon are the hardest to heal, so we had to move quickly.
Sorry if it was sort, and I have no idea were to take it from here, if you have any suggestions I would love to hear it.
YYA4 Out!
