Ch 7 – Safe

NATSUME, NATSUME, NATSUME,

Suddenly his vision came back and he could see Matoba sitting above him calling his name, Natsume sat forward and put his hand above his eye as another vision passed through his head. He looked at Matoba, and then turned jumping off of the bed, running out of the room as fast as he could, he didn't know why exactly but he knew that what Matoba said to him before was all lies. He now knew that he had to get away and fast; he knew his best chance was finding those 2 people from before because he somehow knew they were a safe place to be.

He got to the door to his surprise without being stopped but as soon as he left the paper on his wrist tightened and shocked him, but he just ignored it and continued to run. Natsume could run because he didn't feel the pain for some reason he was numb he couldn't feel anything except for the need to run away as far as he could possibly get because where he was definitely wasn't safe. His bodies defence mechanisms were blocking all of his pain receptors and only letting him feel the need to escape and run. Even though since he woke up after losing his memories he had felt safe he now knew that something was wrong with those feelings and the cause of him being confused was the loss of his memories and Matoba's fake words.

Natsume glanced behind him excepting to see someone chasing him but noticed that for some reason nothing was following him, he couldn't figure out why Matoba wasn't following him but he knew it was his chance to leave and he took it getting as far as he could as fast as he could. After running for so long the adrenaline disappeared and the numbness went away causing the excruciating pain from his leg to get so bad that he was sure that if it wasn't for sure willpower he would have already dropped.

He had slowed down a lot but he refused to stop moving, he knew that if he stopped Matoba would be able to get him back and every bone in his body was telling him that being with Matoba was not the place that he should be. His vision stared to get fuzzy from the pain, but he continued to push forward forcing himself to stay awake. He had slowed to a very unsteady walk when he saw a purple blurr, he just walked in to it trying to push by but he felt its arms slide around him in an attempt to help him walk. The person said nothing as they just continued to walk away from Matoba's mansion; they had sped up as the person moved to support Natsume better talking most of the pressure off of his injured leg.

A while went by before the person and Natsume stopped, the second the person let go of Natsume he collapsed. Natsume leaned back against a tree as his pain receptors all decided to start working again. The pain that was radiating over his body stopped when he saw the person in front of him rip the bracelet off, he instantly passed out when the pain from the bracelet stopped.

When Natsume woke up he could feel the wind rushing through his hair, he leaned forward and looked around. He saw white hair underneath him, a youkai with fuzzy purple hair, and a guy with the same coloured hair as him wearing a hat. He looked at his leg to see it all wrapped up along with both of his feet. When the purple haired youkai noticed he was awake she hugged him, "Natsume you're awake."

Natsume looked at everyone, "Who are you?"

She looked at the man behind her confused and then stood up and slammed her foot down, "What the hell stupid cat, what did you let happen?"

Natsume sat there confused as the youkai looked at the other guy and kicked him, soon after she was grabbed by another female youkai that appeared out of nowhere. Natsume looked at the guy sighing in the corner and then giggled slightly; the guy looked at him, and asked "Do you remember anything?"

Natsume shook his head, "Nothing except that Matoba is dangerous."

Natori just looked down, "Madara what do we do?"

Natsume could hear the voice come from below, "We have to try and trigger his memories in some way."

Natori looked at Natsume, "But how?"

Madara thought for a moment, "I don't know, maybe if he sees his friends he'll remember something."

The group went to see Takuma, and then Taki trying to avoid seeing people who didn't know about youkai because it would be hard to pretend none of them were there for this Natsume, since after explaining that Youkai weren't normal and that others couldn't see them he still didn't really get it. But none of that worked; there was no real response when Natsume saw his friends he kind of just sat there smiling. The group didn't know what to do now; they didn't know how to get Natsume's memories back, hell they didn't even know how he had lost his memories. So they just decided to find some place to rest for the night; they ended up deep in a forest that was quite a ways from town so that people wouldn't accidentally find them. Madara laid by a tree and Natsume laid on him to keep warm because it was freezing that night. Well Natsume went to sleep Natori and Hinoe sat near Madara's head and the group talked well keeping watch to make sure nothing happened.

Madara looked at Hinoe, "What happened to the seal that was on his wrist."

Hinoe looked at where Natsume was, "It had a small rip in it so it was easy to rip off."

They heard Natsume in the background, "Probably happened when I fell in the river, I hit my head and legs so it could have easily gotten ripped then."

Natori looked at him, "I thought you were asleep."

Natsume smiled, "No I was just listening to your conversation."

Madara turned, "I thought you didn't remember anything."

Natsume looked up, "I remember how I lost my memories, when me and Matoba were attacked we fell in the water and I pushed him out causing me to go farther downstream, I ended up hitting my head really hard and my legs were pretty hurt when Matoba found me."

Madara looked at him, "Seriously you helped him?"

Natsume looked down, "I don't know why, be he was knocked out when we were attacked and would have died if I didn't help him."

Natori looked, "What attacked you?"

Natsume shook his head, "I can't remember."

Suddenly the image of the Youkai that attacked him appeared in his head, he watched as he saw the events of the last week play over and over again, he remembered everyone's names and a little of who they were but nothing more than that. He shook at the memories of what Matoba tried to do when he was completely clueless, and then he looked up at Natori, "I could sense the youkai coming when it attack us I even warned him but stupid didn't listen to me, I should have let him drowned."

They all looked at him surprised by the change in his personality, Madara looked at him, "What do you remember now?"

Natsume looked at Madara with a disgusted face, "The last few weeks, But I wish I didn't remember what Matoba tried to do."

Matoba trying to touch him sent shivers down his spine, he didn't hate Matoba before but now he wasn't so sure about that. He yawned as rolled on his side and leaned back actually falling asleep in the warmth of Madara's fur this time.

So that's the new chapter I don't know if you liked it or not but this was all I could manage to get out. So I hope you enjoyed. Please give a RESPECTFUL review. Thanks for reading.

P.S I can't promise weekly updates on any of my fan fictions between school and farm life I'm doing a lot of things, also I am an insanely bad procrastinator, like seriously bad, I have a tone of stories next chapters done just need them to be read over but I can't get myself to sit down and do it, just to say my DC stories second chapter is almost done, and my Spider rider stories next chapter is done I just need to read it over and upload. I'm also thinking about doing the next chapter of Run soon so keep checking for that. :) I might looked at The Captains nightmares too.
