Gon: 8X PFFTSH HHHEEEIF! *Drooling* YUUUNIIICOOOONNS!
Leorio: GON, YOU BRAT, GIVE ME BACK MY COFFEE! *Hunting the caffeine-maniac we call 'Gon'*
Before I could do anything to satisfy my devilish desire, a tall and sturdy man was behind me, and tried to attack my neck with his bare hands. How did I even KNOW he was there? Instinct. The same way I used it to sense he was trying to knock me down and escaped from him. In less than a second, I was on the top of the bookshelf, observing the white-haired-not-old-in-the-minimal man and looking right into his eyes, a pleasured surprise filling them. Staring a little longer, I noticed they were full of death, just like mine's: animal eyes. Deep, dangerous and full of secret meanings. He moved a muscle of his leg, obviously testing me, and I responded with a growl and crushed the edge of my little 'observation spot' with bare hands. Ok, and my claws.
The creep smiled in amusement, as if I was a particularly funny game. Oh boy, he made me even angrier. I could feel my energy around me getting more and more heavy, as if I had an aura of wrath. He smiled even wider. I growled harder, this time showing out my sharp teeth, ready to bite off whichever unprotected part near them. Every human being has a natural fear when seeing a wild and emanating-a-berserk-rage at every possible angle animal. But not him. Looked like he didn't even care if I wasn't an animal at all, just a macabre mixture of both.
You're going to get tired if you stay in that Ren-mode of yours. – He. Was. Kidding.
Roaring, I jumped on him like a lioness and did the best I could with claws and teeth. Thankfully, someone hit me really hard and quickly on the base of my neck, below my beloved necklace, and I went to the floor as equal as fast. I could still hear their steps, and inwardly, thanked again for not doing anything really stupid. Paralyzed but not unconscious, thrown on the floor. I'm pretty sure my eyes weren't reddish anymore, and I felt exhausted, more than I've ever felt in my life.
She did a pretty nasty damage on me. - Said the same masochist-white-haired ojii-san, looking to his arms. Carefully, I looked up to see my master piece on his face. It was beautiful. I'd dig my claws with voracity all over his face and arms, and his blood was dripping from my hands, hair, face and (oh what a new) clothes. He suddenly felt a shiver down his spine, and turned on his heels to look at me, only to find my deadly gaze. – Oh, and you're still conscious? – He laughed. It'd be a nice thing to hear if I wasn't so madly… For the lack of a better term, mad at him. I was pathetically thrown at the floor, like a corpse. Actually, like one of those bear rugs you see in the stories.
"That BASTARD. I'd punch him to death, I'd BITE him to death, but I'm paralyzed. -"My curse session was cut by the curse victim himself. His face was SO CLOSE and I couldn't help but try to kill him with my glares-of-death.
My name is Silva Zaoldyeck. And he is Zeno Zaoldyeck. – He pointed for the old man who probably hit me. – You'd be…?
"Your worst nightmare" I wanted to say. But nooo, I HAD to be frozen in a bear-rug position, soaked in blood.
Silva, I don't know if you noticed, but she's paralyzed.
I do know, but for that amount of aura, I thought she could be able to move.
She's alive, and that's… Pretty amazing… Indeed… - Slowly approved the other walking-human-fossil with a hand on his chin. Zeno. "What kind of name is that? Not to say about those clothes…"He's now the number two in my new "To murder" list.
I was being treated like a pet. I was completely humiliated. And worst: Mrs. Fossil was there watching like a vulture. Enjoying the view, and probably wondering if I'd make a good looking rug for her living-room. After Ojii-san decided to stop the stare-contest (and my pathetic fail at the attempt of murdering him with it), he asked the principal about something I couldn't quite hear, because there was a buzz near my fox ears, and it was making me dizzy. I growled and tried to move my head. Nothing. It was annoying me. Deeply. They started to look back at me, but the buzzing was so frigging' loud that I didn't even care. With a wave of anger running through my veins, I was back on my feet in no time. Dazed and confused, I tried to track the buzzing source. There MUST be a beehive here some frigging' where. I walked like a drunken person, but I needed to stop that noise. "The window. It must be coming from there." (Have you ever tried to convince a drunken person that the "pretty lady" he's talking to is actually the janitor? Impossible. The janitor is looking 'too damn hot' on those uniforms and 'almost falling for me' for you to interrupt his pathetic attempt to flirt with the poor man).
Where do you think you're going, young lady? – Asked Ojii-san. But all I heard was: Wee *buuzzz* do yataka yard *buuuuuuzzz*gong, yiing leied? AND THE BUZZING AGAIN.
I faced him with a frowned expression, and said with the most threatening voice I could use:
None of your business and I'm going to kill you after this.
Three seconds passed, and then he blinked. And then he looked at me. And then he laughed. I think my voice wasn't as threatening as I wished for. Before I could do anything else to fix the situation, something inside me sort of… stopped working properly, and I had a break-down.
- Silva's POV:
Yup, that little brat just said something like: "Nhoig for yu bisssns, nhid Immagoingkillya." I liked her! Even if she was dying, and my father was messing up with her mind, she threatened ME! And almost ten minutes on Ren for just a little girl… Hu hu hu, and a very good one as a-matter-of-fact.
Fuyairi, ne? – The weirdo nodded. - I want to take this kid with me. I'll start the training as soon as she wakes up. – I said as I held the little past-out brunette on my arms. Badly scratched, by the way.
I would be more than pleased if you did, sir, but I'm afraid she's not for adoption. – The woman was serious. She didn't want this kid anymore. Hu hu hu hu I like her even more!
In that case, we'll kidnap her. Have a nice day! Oh, does she have something that…
Yako does not have a single pencil, her only goods are those which came with her on the day she was abandoned here: this necklace she's wearing, an ugly and old backpack, a book and this. – She showed me a red ribbon, with a little silver dragon holding a moon swinging on the middle.
Let's go Silva. I got her things. – He turned to the woman – This is for your own good. – And knocked her down.
I told you that walking through shadows could be interesting.
He glared at me, and soon enough I was left to chuckle alone. Well, unless this little girl counts as a someone. Paying attention to the subject, I think she's actually cute. A long, two palms under the shoulder length brown hair and a pale skin, with a beginning of a freckle on the top of her cheeks. And there's the fox tail and ears, in the same color of her hair, only getting white and the tips. A few scars on her legs and face. I couldn't tell about her arms, since they were covered by a long sleeve, but I presume there are more scars there. "Yep, she's quite cute indeed" I dialogued with myself. And then I looked to my nearly ripped-off arms. "Very cute when not trying to kill you, ne?" Laughing, I went through the shadows of the silent library, heading home.
.:X~X~X:.
"Well, the girl is still unconscious, so I guess that it's okay to sneak through her things." Thought the man who had just closed the door of the said-girl's new room. Before he could take a step, a woman came closer to him. He sighed.
Yes?
I don't like it. That thing has a tail, and look at YOUR FACE! – Cried his wife, always worrying.
It's not "it", it's a girl. And she's pretty good with nen. I'll train her, and who knows how much more powerful the little kid can be? – "Jeez, just by thinking of it, my blood is boiling!"
You already have your family. Why can't you be only with them?
I'm with you whenever I can. – "I like her, but Kyo can be very needy and annoying when she wants to." – And this conversation is over.
The woman bit her lower lip and nodded.
Good. So I'm going to do a few things and after that, I'm going to bed.
She nodded again and left the corridor with a sobbing sound.
Sheesh, women. – Impossible to understand, impossible to live without them.
Smiling for no one, he went to the most comfortable room in the house, and threw his tired body on the nearest chair. Opening the fox-girl's backpack, he didn't see anything interesting. An old book, the red ribbon with the dragon thingy and some loose pages. Looking at them, he understood that it was some sort of quickly made notes. The calligraphy itself wasn't ugly, but it was all messy, as when written, she was worried about finishing it as soon as possible.
"Homework, perhaps?" He thought, suddenly interested on them. His mouth formed an 'o' when he realized the content on the paper. Curses, demons, old tales and etc were dominating the page. He turned it around. The solutions for the curses, the right 'counter-attack' to each demon, little notes of the tales… Like she was trying to solve something. "What is this kid up to?" His eyes met a newer piece of paper, and found a small piece of the tale of a certain "Avis and Ígaro" romance. Under the tale little notes were visible:
"The newborn baby was then taken to some other part of the universe, were she would be confined forever. The child, an exotic mixture between Ryutsuki, Kitsune, Aquarian and Devil's son himself blood, is to be the new Devil loyal servant and one of the strongest creatures living on our time. It can only be stopped by it's opposite, the work of God himself. The mark existent on both of them will come to…"
Silva looked at absolutely nothing, shocked. "Lucifer's daughter? One of the most powerful creatures on the universe?"
Without a word, he silently dashed back to the kid's room, happy for her to be fast asleep. "A mark…" He tried to look closer at her face, but she moved to the side. Growling, he was about to go away when the sight of a black little thing next to her neck caught his eyes. Smiling dementedly, Silva carefully pulled her collar down, only to see the mark of a dragon protecting a moon. Yes. He had one of the most powerful weapons in the universe on his hands.
Running like a wild animal, he went to his father's room, and told him everything he'd discovered about the girl. The old man raised both of his eyebrows on surprised (which by Silva's experience, was equivalent to a terrified yell), and looked at the papers on his hand.
Neither one of them would ever know that they were being spied and heard by no other one than Kuroro Lucifer. Smirking at his discover, he discarded his wish for killing those men, and carefully placed his new obsession on his mind: the most rare girl alive in the world. No. The universe. "She shall be mine. Only mine." Grinning like the good madman he was, Kuroro went back to meet his "friends".
A few hours later, father and son discovered a lot about the girl, even her real name, which not even Yako knew. It was like they're solving the most interesting, yet difficult, puzzle in the world: The more they knew, the more they wanted to learn, and so, the studies went on and on for the whole night.
- Yako's POV
I woke up, but didn't open my eyes immediately. "I'm not dead, it's a start." Sadly, my mind is still slow and it hurts a little whenever I try to remember anything from last night. The only thing I got was about the white-haired freaks that'd knocked me down. Nevertheless, I was able to figure out that wherever I was lying on, wasn't my usual spot. It has a pillow. I never had a pillow. Unless that piece of wood count as one.
Carefully, I tried to listen to any sound that could indicate another living being on the room without moving my ears. There was this minimal sound close to the edge of the bed, but I supposed it was the sound of air coming from a near window. "Nope, that sound is too soft to be anyone." Sighing, I opened my eyes and saw the creepiest thing ever, making my eyes go wider and wider: a pair of eyes that oscillated between blue and green, which stared and studied me with a feverous curiosity. And it's tiny little hands on the edge of the bed, where 0.5 seconds earlier was my right hand.
KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! – I was now pressed against the wall, regretting the lame self-defense position I was on.
Panting, I noticed that the 'horrid creature' was now amused and it giggled, still looking at me like I was the most interesting thing in the world. And I think it liked my pathetic sound of surprise, because the minuscule meat ball was clapping his chubby hands. And then, with a 'Nyaanh', he stretched out his arm in my direction, like he wanted… Oh great. Me. The human baby liked me. And was getting impatient because I wasn't moving a single muscle. Snorting, he pouted. That melted away my worries, and I couldn't help but chuckle at my first fear of this oh-so-dangerous baby. I leaned closer to him, still careful, and observed his face go back at the happy smile I saw there first. And more giggles, clapping and 'nyan' sounds.
Oi, meat ball, is my face funny to you?
Nyaaaah ha ha! – And that's why I don't have patience with kids. They're senseless! (I'm only a kid for my age!)
I'm taking as a 'no'. Shouldn't you have a mother or something like that?
AAHGH! – Oi, was that an angry look I saw there?
Ok, I won't ask it again! – He relaxed his frown a little. Weird kid. – I'm supposing you want to come here, am I right?
A sparkle ran through his eyes, and the giggles became louder and… Happier. Looking deeper, his eyes were too smart for his size. Meh, who am I to judge? I'm still four, but still, I can do things that even adults can't. Besides, I was starting to like this white haired kiddo.
Come on, I help you. – And as gently as I could, held his chubby arms and lifted up, setting him at my side. – Happy now?
But his attention wasn't on me anymore. I frowned and followed his stare which curiously, ended up on my fluffy tail. Back to his eyes, I saw the determined look he had on them. And then I realized. Uh-oh.
Nooo, nonono NUH-UH! Don't you EVENTHINKOF- - Too late. The human thingy was already wrapped with my tail, fighting for his life. Apparently, my tail was a horrid monster that would eat any chubby kid on the village. A.K.A: himself.
Not wanting to stop his brave and absolutely dangerous fight, I simply watched the little brat giggle and yell anytime I'd take my tail off his 'deadly hold'. Who cares if I was in a total strange place, with a total weird kid, and no idea about what happened last night? This is the first time I get happy about something else other then my own miserable life!
