64. A Demons Words..
Inari watched Tomoe whine as he laid on the floor, on the carpet, his pale, sweaty face; pressed into the floor as he held his stomach and whined out in pain. He choked on the bile in his throat and he gagged before Inari gave him the bucket for the fifth time today. To be honest Inari was surprised that Mikage wasn't calling, but then again the man probably didn't know that the kid was even gone.
Tomoe choked and gaged out harshly, the bile stinging like acid as he let himself puke and wail out in pain. He gasped for air and then slumped back on the carpet, moaning and whining from the pain in his gut.
Plus he had to deal with the welts and Inari, after further obersation saw that scars would form one way or another. He was shcoked from it all and Tomoe had whined and screamed the whole time he tried to apply medication to the welts.
Kurama had stayed a while and was now standing in the doorway with a confused look on his face, But then again he was older and more wise to it all. He sighed out, not knowing what was going on. He watched and winced,
" Did he get hit that hard?"
Inari grew quite and sighed, That wasn't it at all, in fact Tomoe had mated without meaning to; now he was paying for it as he choked and gagged again. He whined and choked, throwing up nothing and just dry heaving. The god sighed and looked at Kurama,
" You should say that.' He muttered and felt Tomoe's head, frowning at the fever. He sighed out and then blinked when Tomoe looked at Him with wide, tear filled eyes. He didn't know what to say about the look on his face either. It looked everything he cared about had been ripped from him, and throw away...
The teen shook slightly as he gripped Inari's shirt, he cughed before the god rubbed and patted his back, trying to get Tomoe to calm down. He saw dark circles under the foxes eyes and he sighed slightly when Tomoe slumped.
The god smiled softly but not ecause he was happy... In fact he was disgusted at the moment; of course he knew Mikage, and he knew that something had to be on the mans mind for him to do something so.. Disgusting. He looked at the shivering teen and let him lay there, he laid a blanket over him and sighed out slightly.
Tomoe was still shaking, even twitching in his sleep as he laid on his stomach in a huddled up position. Inari stared down at him and kurama winced out as he looked at Inari.
" I called Mizuki.. He's coming here." he muttered slightly making Inari nod. That was good, they all needed support right now, but mostly Tomoe. The fox had welts all over and he was surprised he was still sitting in such an awkward position.
Inari looked at Kuram who stared at Inari blankly, he wanted to ask for the truth and nothing but it; but he was sure that Inari woudln't tell him. He wouldn't tell him why Tomoe was chuking up his guts and crying out in even more pain than he had to be in.
Kurama knew something else was going on but he didn't know what or why, He wanted to know but he'd rather have Tomoe tell him; but for now he had to get home to his abusive brother.. Until Inari looked at him and arched his brow,
" So.. When are you going to let me treat your bruises?" He arched his brow, and watched Kuram have a look of panic as he yanked his sleeve down and realized it could of been the bruise on his face from where Jiru hit him.
Inari sighed out and looked around his house before looking at Kurama with a serious look, ' Your staying here with questions asked, your brother can't keep you with him anyway, your over the legal age." he smiled softly and Kurama blinked.
" How did you-" He was confused as to how Inari would even guess his brother but then again, maybe anybody could guess. He looked at Inari confused before the man waved it away and smiled,
" Your not one to get into fights, and lets just say Jiru is the only one you live with." He sighed out and Kurama felt himself relax. To be honest he didn't want his brother arrested, in fact he was his only family at the moment. Souri was in the mountains far away so he didn't have anyone much to talk too..
He bit his lip before Inari smiled, " If not for Yourself do it for Tomoe, The kid is gonna need alot of support soon." He muttered as if he knew something that the crow and Tomoe didn't know. He didn't understand and he wanted to, he wanted to help... But Tomeo wasn't telling anyone about what was going on. Sadly now he had too.. and it wasn't a pretty truth that he had hidden.
"I'll stay." H emuttered and looked at his little brother that was shaking on the floor, his back brusied and welted. His pale skin almost ghostly pale as well.. He looked sick, but then again he has been throwing up alot lately. He bit his lip as he slipped his jacket off and Inari smiled softly.
" Thank you.. Tomoe is gonna need it.' He sighed out and went to drag in a bucket of water, he knew for one thing though.. The one person that Tomoe probably needed wasn't there. His own father had done this and he was the one person Tomeo needed the most..
The fox had let his mask stay up for so long, and when it shattered no one knew how much pain it had taken to break it. Now they saw.. and it was terrible to say the least. Very terrible indeed.
Nanami whined slightly as she walked with her mother through the booths around them, thousands of medical prototypes and other things were everywhere and for the girl she was shocked her mother liked all of the things around them. There was medicines, medical movies, documenties and books of all sorts.
Popular doctors were there as well and some things were being sold for a fair price as a breast cancer awareness raising. Nanami smiled at all of this but right now her stomach hurt, her jeans were really tight and her head was pounding. in fact she wanted to cry and snap at someone, which wasn't like her at all..
She had always been the one to keep her temper in check, so she wasn't expecting this all to happen, In fact she was always trying to be encouraging and she did love all the stuff thats the health feild had to offer, thats why her mother brought her on things like this.
She sighed out a bit, trying to make her headache better but only making it worse in comparision. She whined as her mother looked at her worried,
" Honey are you okay? You look pale?" She whispered as they walked but Nanami just smiled and tried to wave it off,
" I'm okay.. Just hungry." She commented, sure that the reason she was bloated was due to having no food in her system. It had to be right? What else could it be really? Nanami sighed out and yawned slightly before pausing and whining from the way her stomach turned in pain,
" Mom.. I'll be right back. I'm going to the bathroom.' She smiled and her mother nodded as she took notes on health condisitons from this one booth that was talking to a group. Nanami tried hard not to smile as she walked to the bathroom.
She didn't get why she was so bored, maybe she missed Tomoe? She wasn't much on crushes and love instrest and all, but she coduln't stop thinking about him. In a way it was weird for her but she couldn't stop smiling as she yawned, T be honest she wasn't sure if he liked her or not..
But after all that had happened between them? in many ways, maybe he did have feelings for her, if not then what? She wasn't sure if Tomoe was the type to use her, right? She swallowed and whined from a pain in her gut as she walked into the bathroom.. After finding out she was spotting earlier..
Which shocked her...
She started to wash her hands and stared in the mirror in confusion, what was going on? She didn't know and she had no clue, but she felt aweful. She felt her head and whined as she splashed water on her face. She sighed out as the cold touched her skin,
Not expecting a woman to touch her shoulder.
Nanami blinked and looked up, but she didn't see a regualr human woman, no she saw something freaky and scary. So instead of standing still she screamed and backed up in shock as the demon like woman smiled and giggled madly,
" Girl Smellz nice.." She smiled and licked her lips making Nanami shudder, What was this thing and what was going on!? The only demons she saw was Tomoe, Kurama and Mizuki, and they weren't like this black mass of nothingness. She shuddered as the room grew cold and the demonstress titled her head, her black long hair floating to the ground like a waterfall, coming right from the abyss of Yomi.
" W-What do you want with me!?" Nanami screamed in fear as the demon just smiled at her ina creepy, alomost physco way. She chuckled darkly, making the mirror crack and sending chills down Nanami's skin...
" Iz just want that.." The woman pointed at Nanami and the girl trembled, What was this thing talking about!? But she wasn't expecting her stomach to shine, she blinked and stared down in confused as the demon giggled in glee,
" I want your unborn child.. Human." She giggled again and Nanami gasped as she placed her hand over the light, her large brown eyes trembled.. What? No.. But she couldn't be! She didn't...
Do...
Anything-
Oh god no..
Nanami sucked in her breath and looked at the demon as the light grew brighter and the girl whined out in pain, it was impossible! she was only seventeen! It was a mistake! She didn't mean to make.. This! How was this possible!? Was it Really..
True?
Tomoe woke up, his eyes trained about around him as his whole body felt numb from bandages and cream like substances on his body. He tried to move but he coduln't... In fact his body hurt all over, and he didn't understand really... Until he realized where he was and everything flooded back to him.
He choked on his raw emotions but it felt like he lost all his tears. It made sense, he had cried alot earlier and he feared if he did so anymore he woudl loose all control. The fox whined out and rubbed his temple in pain, not knowing where he was.. in fact his head was pounding and hsi ears felt aweful.
His tail hurt and he had a feeling he had a high fever, what was going on with him!? he didn't understand and in fact he felt sick ad slightly ready to throw up again. He graoned and looked aroudn for the bucket, not expecting bandaged hands to hand it to him.
Tomoe looked up and Saw Kurama looking at him with a soft smile as he handed the fox the bucket, Tomoe acepected it and nearly chucked to early. Kurama stuck the bucket in front of him and winced as Tomoe whined and made a gagging noise from the pain in his gut.
Kurama patted his back, making sure not to hurt a welt. His hand was soft as Tomoe quivered and choked slightly as he poured his guts up in pain. He whined out and bit his lip as he looked at Kurama with quivering eyes,
" Why are you doing this?" Kurama whispered softly causing Tomoe to look away and wince, he couldn't say. In fact it was very embarrassing , and he didn't want ayone to know because of the shame of his actions,
" I guess I have the flu." he muttered and noticed Kuramas bandaged arms. he paused and looked at the Tengu in confusion before opening his mouth with a quivering voice,
" What happened to you?" He muttered in shock, almost forgetting his own scars as his brother arched his brow and shurgged his shoudlers,
" I tripped.' He looked at Tomoe blankly and the fox knew he was lying. he bit his lip as tears welled up in his eyes, he looked at the bandages before jerked his head towards Kurama, his eyes stern,
" Don't lie to me." He choked, already having enough of everything around him. He had been beat, his best friend was gone at a convention and now he was scared for life by his so, called, LOVING father. Tomoe bit his lip as Kurama slowly smirked,
" Then Dont lie to me." he whispered and Tomeo felt his heart drop before he choked and looked away. His ears flopped and he whimpered as he rubded his arms and then his eyes, trying to calm down as he looked at Kurma with watering eyes.
" D-Don't hate me." He choked and started to cry lightly, his white hair shading his face as he choked on the air he did have. Kurama arched his brow at this as he looked at him in confusion. He patted his head and winced,
" For what?" He whispered, not expecting the next words , He was shocked.. and a bit stunned but he didn't have anger. In fact mayb eit was shock and understanding. He wasn't sure as he looked at the fox and winced from the answer, his blood running cold..
" For mating Nanami.." Tomoe choked out and then lurched again..
And then it made a lot more sense to the Tengu.
Nanami gasped and screamed as she placed her arms over her stomach, why she didn't know.. But the demon in front of her lurched forward and screeched evilly, the rest of the mirrors cracked and the lights wanted to fade As Nanami lunged for the door, She gasped in terror as she slammed it open and ran through the booths,
The demon like woman crawling on the roof and screeching, trying to claw at her with its claws.
" I'll slit you open child! It will be over in seconds! I need a yokai baby conceived of a gods son!" She giggled in a crazy way as Nanami screamed, some people looked at her like she was insane, nto seeing the demon as it crawled after the girl,
Nanami gasped, pushing through the people and wailing as she held her stomach protectively. Her hair swaying as she ran for her life.. and for her so called childs. She whined out as the demon hopped from the roof to the floor, running after her in dangerous speeds..
Nanami looked back and screamed when the demon ran towards her, but she was surprised when the demon Screamed out and fell back.
The girl held her stoamch as she tripped and fell forward on the carpeted floor, not seeing a tall man holding a book nonchallently, apparently holding it out as the demon ran face first into it and fell to the floor unconscious.
The teenager girl shook slightly in response to the demon falling into a pile on the floor, she grabbed her heart and looked up at see the boy, holding a book and staring ahead at the demon before jerking his head towards her.
She froze when she saw feral silver, metallic eyes, and Red hair. He rolled his metallic eyes and glared ather before helping her up and sighing,
" I'm a socail worker not a babysitter, he seemed to mutter to himself as Nanami looked at him shcoked. He was a social worker? But how? He was like.. a year younger then Tomoe? Or close to his age of eighteen? He turned his cold Silver eyes towards her before grunting and sighing,
" Should a girl holding a child of a demon really be running around?" he said rather blunty before shaking his head and sighing,
" W-Who are you?" Nanami gasped as she stood, she was surprised by his words, If he saw then that mean he was a demon to? She didn't know but he looked at her blankly as if she hit her head and he was rolling his eyes at her clumbisy move.
" Silver." He muttered, " Now go to your mother. I have things to take care of here." he cast a soft smile before turning to leave..
Nanami blinked and looked down in her hand to see a socail service card, Her eyes grew wide in shock from the name planted on it. She didn't understand.. but right now she had more things to focus on.. Like the little fact she had just found out..
She was pregnant..
With her ' Bestest friend in the whole Worlds' Baby..'
She was a human, pregnant with a demons child..'
