The Empire
Chapter 1
A powerful empire called Jenova has imperialized the country of Renee becoming the most powerful and feared empire in the world. The people of Renee live in fear in the shadow of the demonic empire, their hatred still festers towards the empire claiming their country as property of the empire. Many have lead revolts against the empire but all attempts to destroy the empire have failed due to an advanced weapon that Jenova has in their ranks.
Atrays. Bio weapons also known as super humans created for the purpose of war created from an unknown foreign material called Matria. They look like regular people only very different on the inside. They are monsters created to destroy at the command of their master. The empire is creating monsters to strengthen themselves against any threat, religious people of the empire have revolted saying that they’ve stepped on the toes of god in creating life. But yet everyone who revolted or went against the empire were killed immediately by royal order. The country’s people live in constant fear of the growing empire, they can only writhe in despair and await the sweet release of death.
The Atrays jobs are to protect the country against rebels and invading countries, they kill anyone who conspires again the empire. What has this world come to?
Today another abomination was created. Atray model Genocide 1109.
Two Atrays talked quietly among themselves as they headed down the grand hallway towards the laboratory. The one weapon was a boy with black hair in a pixie cut with red highlights mixed in, the boy looked to be around seventeen with fair skin and a slender frame, his eyes were a deep red resembling the color of blood. He wore snug black and red clothes decorated with silver chains and belts. A red arm band was located on his left shoulder reading 1107. The other was taller with a silver cascade of hair, his bangs framed around his pale face and topaz eyes. The boy was slender and wore a snug black turtle neck and matching pants. He too had the red arm band on his shoulder reading 1108. Model 1107 sighed putting his hands in his pockets.
“I don’t see why WE have to be present during the Genocide models trail run” he grumbled annoyed. The silver haired weapon smiled a bit.
“Cheer up Wraith it won’t take to long” 1108 assured him with his bell like voice. Wraith gave him an irritated look. “They say that he’s going to be the most advanced model yet” the silver haired teen added. Wraith glared at him before spitting his words out venomously.
“Yeah then what will happen to the rest of us! If he’s a success they’ll move forward and scrap the rest of us for being obsolete!” the silver haired weapon quickly opened his mouth to protest.
“They wouldn’t do that-”
“Face it Kitsune! Its over after this” he mumbled before walking back towards laboratory five leaving Kitsune to stand deep in thought for a moment.
“He’s right” the silver haired boy mumbled. “And I’ll probably be the first to go” Kitsune finished before slowly making his way towards the lab after Wraith.
Sciences and Atrays stood crowded around the large windows looking down into a large pit with bleached white walls. Below stood the Atray Genocide. He looked to be no older then fourteen, he was a cute boy with longish short raven tresses. He had porcelain skin that looked as if it might shatter with a delicate touch. His slender frame was covered with a tight black and midnight blue outfit, the Atray stood in the middle of the room staring down at the bleached floor he was completely still.
Kitsune and Wraith watched carefully as a loud buzzing sound was heard, a door in the room below opened letting in four later models of Atrays to enter, the door slammed shut behind them. Wraiths and Kitsune’s eyes widened a bit.
“Like lambs to the slaughter” the black haired Atray muttered to himself as he watched them get ready to run the trail.
The four models below drew guns and prepared for battle with the Genocide. The older models slowly circled around him, Genocide never flinched or stopped himself from staring at the ground. One of the older models flit forward attacking the new model swinging his legs swiftly at the boy. In a flash the Genocide model easily caught his leg by the ankle without looking up at him, Kitsune and Wraith leaned closer awaiting the next move.
The raven haired boy slowly lifted his head turning his unnaturally fully midnight blue iris’s at him, his expression was devoid of any kind of emotion. No fear, no pain, not even the slightest bit of anger to being attacked.
Genocide then tightened his grip on the limb in his grasp easily snapping it, the Atray screamed in pain. The raven haired boy then raised his left arm, his hand manipulated into a blade that sat upon his middle fingers. Blood splattered across the room staining the bleached white floor and walls. Everyone watched quietly as the massacre went on below them. Some scientist murmured excitedly at their best work yet while the Atray’s watched in horror as there own were ripped apart like warm bread.
Genocide showed no hesitation or emotion as he slaughtered every last living thing in the room. The bleached white cell was covered with the crimson elixir from the dismembered Atrays scattered across the floor. 1109 stood staring down at the ground again covered in the blood of the fallen Atrays.
“No fear, no pain, no emotion, no hesitation” Wraith mumbled still staring down at the blood bathed room below. “Perfect solder” he finished spitting and turning away from the window. Kitsune said nothing and stared at the bloody boy in the disgusting blood bathed room.
“Kitsune!” a feminine voice called. The entire crowd turned seeing Ophelia Jenova, the queen of the Jenova empire. She was a beautiful women with long cascading crimson hair and big green eyes. She wore an elegant white and golden dress and was surrounded by loyal Atrays and imperil guards. She smirked at the silver haired Atray.
“You go down there and fight next” Wraiths eyes widened in utter disbelief.
“I’m very curious to see if the later models can even stand up to him” Ophelia giggled lightly. Kitsune kept his face blank before walking off towards the entrance of the bleached white room.
Where am I?……
Why are these people looking down at me?
Who are they?
Why am I here?
Genocide was snapped out his thoughts when the loud buzzing sound echoed again as the door opened allowing a tall silver haired boy to enter as the door slammed shut behind him. The Atrays midnight iris’s slowly and carefully scanned the boy over. He was holding a sword in one hand and had just one gun in a holster on his upper left thigh other then that he had no other weapons.
Wraith bit his lip in anticipation. Kitsune was considered weak due to his hesitation to make the kill. And here he would most likely die if he hesitated here.
Genocide watched him with unblinking eyes. He studied his unnatural hair color more then anything else. Kitsune unsheathed his sword slowly, the black haired Atray’s eyes narrowed on the movement before an invisible force struck Kitsune before he could even fully draw the blade, the silver haired super human flew back slamming hard into the hard bleached wall. “What the hell!” Wraith yelled moving closer to the glass peering down at the two fighters. Jenova smiled looking down at them.
“Wonderful” she mused, Wraith shot her a glare growling before he put his attention back onto the them. 1109 griped his fists tightly his own anger growing inside. Confusion and rage boiling up until it was pure malice intent toward everyone who looked down at him. Not know where he was nor why he was here, why? Why were they sending people down to fight him. Kitsune grunted painfully as he sat up shakily his eyes fixated on the powerful Atray.
The raven haired boys frame trembled his fists clenched so tight they bled slowly. No understanding of what he was or what was going on he felt his invisible appendages fail around him smacking hard into the ground busting up the white floor around him, the others watched in awe some men in white lab coat sat at computer reading the heat and energy level in the small room. The unseen arms swung around smashing loudly into the walls and floor around him braking it apart. The men gasped when on of he computers shot the screen cracking at the pressure, the others soon fallowed. Jenova only smirked more as the men panicked trying to keep the readings on him. “Perfect” she mused again.
Kitsune watched with concerned eyes, curious to see what was behind this destruction and what was causing it. 1109’s head suddenly snapped up glaring at the silver haired man who crouched on the floor in the corner of the room, Kitsune watched him with careful eyes seeing if he could read his movements and figure out what he was thinking.
“Jenova!” a man called. The women adverted to him with an annoyed look on her face. “Reading are off the charts! His abilities excide what we originally expected!” he said quickly causing Jenova to smirk at him.
“Good you’ve done well with this one” the man gasped.
“Your majesty! He’s uncontrollable! Not only that but he doesn’t seem to heed any warning or commands!” he yelled. Jenova looked away from him watching her prefect warrior below with hungry eyes. “He must be destroyed or contained!” he finished.
“No” she said firmly. “1109 is perfect and destructive uncontrollable, no emotions and no understanding of the word compassion, you will not destroy him” she said finally causing the man’s eyes to dilate at her words. On impulse he quickly ran up to the control panel hitting the a switch. Kitsune heard the sound of machinery in the walls and looked up seeing a multitude of guns protruding the wall, 1109 slowly looked up at them with unfocused and dead red eyes like that of a lifeless doll.
“STOP HIM!” Jenova yelled ordering the guards to attack the man who had set off the weapons to destroy the creature. The man quickly took a heavy object and beat the lever to the side bending it so it couldn’t be turned off. Kitsune’s eyes widened as the guns fired wildly around the room, the thousands of guns fired quickly with no real coarse in mind. Bullets shot through the glass windows causing frantic screams from everyone as they dropped to the floor to avoid being hit. The guard pushed the man back throwing him into another as he tried to bend the lever back into place.
“MOVE!” Wraith ordered showing him aside as he yanked at the lever bending it back into place before shutting it down, slowly everyone stood peeking over the edge of the shattered windows. Jenova’s eyes widened at the sight below her, Wraith unwillingly looked over the edge not wanting to see Kitsune’s dead body soaked in blood. To his surprise he didn’t.
Kitsune sat on the floor clutching his ears his eyes twisted shut, slowly he opened his eyes and looked in front of him seeing the model 1109 standing in front of him. Discarded bullets laid scattered across the ground, some how 1109 had managed to deflect every shot protecting him and Kitsune. Jenova stared in amazement before laughing like she was crazy. “Perfect! He can’t be killed! Genocide is perfect!” she exclaimed. Wraith leaped over the edge of the cage landing soundlessly on the floor before 1109. Genocide’s eyes fallowed him as he slowly side stepped around him looking for an opening.
“Kitsune are you alright?” Wraith asked his eyes never leaving the new born Atray who silently watched him in return. Jenova glared down at Wraith before smirking.
“I’m fin-” he was cut off by Jenova’s voice.
“1109” she called, the new born’s eyes flickered to her. “Destroy 1108 and 1107” she ordered.
“Mistress there still good!” a man called out. She then looked back at the man who had attempted to destroy 1109.
“I don’t care, and you” the man glared at her. “Send him down to play with 1109” she ordered the mans eyes dilated as he was forced by some guards down into the room towards the door. Wraith glared at her clenching his fists in tight angry balls at his side. Kitsune slowly stood up behind 1109, he threw him a look over his shoulder before looking back at the door as the buzzer sounded again the door opening. The man fought back begging as he was shoved through the door by the few guards, suddenly in an instant they were split in half blood splattering from their bodies as they fell.
“Quickly shut the door!” a man yelled/ the door quickly closed locking shut with thick heavy airlocks. 1109 chocked his head to the side staring at the door, taking a step and moved toward the door. Kitsune watched him closely as he walked away from him Wraith quickly joined his side looking at Kitsune then back at 1109. He approached the door standing only a few feet from it. Jenova watched closely and carefully along with everyone else in the room above. Suddenly the sound of metal being struck sounded as his invisible limbs punched at the door quickly creating thousands of dents making the thick iron door bend inward. 1109 stood unmoving letting his invisible and unknown limbs strike at the door.
“He’s trying to escape!” they screamed panicking. The Atrays trembled at the monster watching as he stood stoically the door being hit with an invisible force. Jenova smirked.
“1109 wants out eh?” the door finally gave way flying backwards hitting the staircase just behind it leading to the next floor. Kitsune gasped running up to 1109.
“Kitsune!” Wraith yelled after him before chasing after him. A man chocked a gun pointing it at 1109. A dart fired out hitting the Atray in the arm, the child flinched and looked down at the dart in his arm that had injected some kind of medicine into him. He ripped the dart out and threw it on the ground causing it to shatter. Shakily he moved forward his limbs quickly becoming numb and his vision became foggy. He slowly reached his hand out as he stumbled forward searching for some type of grip to hold onto, his leg gave out and he fell forward being caught by a pair of strong arms. He felt the warmth of the hold around him keeping him from hitting the floor. He could hear a voice talking but he was to tired to recognize he voice. Suddenly he gave into the tired feeling that quickly swept over him falling into the darkness of his slumber.
Chapter 2
Kitsune stood looking up at 1109 who was canceled inside a container now. Hundreds of cables and wires were hooked up to him and wrapped around his slender frame as he floated in a glass cylinder filled with some kind of liquid. He wore a snug black and blue outfit covering every inch of his body save his face. The silver haired Atray continued his blank stare at the tiny frame inside the container.
“Something on your mind?” a voice asked from beside him. Slowly Kitsune turned looking at the man next to him. He was thin with a mop of black hair and dressed in a white lab coat.
“Mr. Mou?” Kitsune whispered the mans name before returning to staring at the boy in the container before him. The room buzzed with the sounds of running computers and silent chatter among the staff in the room. “No nothing’s on my mind” Kitsune muttered. Mr. Mou made a face before joining his stare at the boy in the tank reading 1109 Genocide Atray. They stood in silence before finally Kitsune spoke up in a low hushed voice. “What are they going to do with him?” he asked.
“Not sure. All I know is that 1109 has many unknown abilities that we wish to try and understand, In that process he has forced himself into a deep sleep refusing to awaken” Mr. Mou explained. Kitsune listened attentively. “1109 was made from a special Matria like you and Wraith. This Matria we used in creating him is so far the only of it’s kind, only by using a small portion of it we were able to create this powerful being more powerful and advanced then the other Atrays”
“What kind of Matria is it?’ Kitsune asked quietly now watching the man next to him.
“We’re not sure but when it was found it was a dark red in color unlike the silver and black Matira used in you and Wraith, it pulsated with some sort of energy finding that it was a powerful energy source Jenova ordered that we crate the ultimate Atray using it, thus creating Genocide 1109” he explained. Kitsune looked up at the beautiful raven haired boy. “The boys just as much of a mystery as the Matria it’s self” Mr. Mou added.
“Give him a name” Kitsune said slowly. Mr. Mou looked at him. “Like when you gave me and wraith a name give him one too” he finished. The man nodded and looked back at the boy in the tank. His face became pensive as he thought over names for the Atray.
“Night” he offered. Kitsune smiled and nodded looking back to Night.
“Sounds nice” he mused with a small smile. He then placed his pale hand on the glass. “Night” he whispered. Night’s finger twitched before idly moving barely noticeable to any one. One of the computers beeped repeatedly. Mr. Mou turned looking back at the unmanned computer screen. Checking the brain activity it had heightened drastically showing that he was waking up, not only that but his energy level creped up along with the pressure gauge threatening to destroy the thick glass of the tank surrounding him. The man quickly moved over to the computer getting the attention of the others in the room all crowding around the computer.
Kitsune quirked an eyebrow watching them until he heard a slight cracking sound, he adverted back towards the tanking seeing a tiny crack in the fixture.
“Some one get over here!!”
“He’s waking up!!”
“Some one inject the tranquilizer!!“ The panicked voices seemed so far away. As Kitsune watched the tank closely the glass cracked slowly across the middle. The silver haired Atray’s eyes widened as he faintly saw thousands of points in the glass crack like it was being hit by a fist even though Night hadn’t moved an inch, slowly his blood red eyes opened focusing on Kitsune. The silver haired boy shakily pressed his hand against the glass just it cracked beneath his fingers, night raised his gloved hand up pressing it against the glass as if trying to met Kitsune palm. The computers went haywire the scent of burning metal wafted from around some of the computers. “The computers are over loading!!” a man yelled. Finally the glass shattered letting the water flood across the ground knocking Kitsune over, Night released yet still wrapped and tangled in the wires, the invisible force pulled on them removing each one until becoming inpatient and ripping them out. The men panicked one grabbing the dart gun again with a powerful douse reading to knock him out.
Though before he could get Night into his sights the invisible limb sliced through him soaking the floor with blood.
“Night stop!” Mr. Mou yelled. Kitsune stood up soaked with water from the tank, Night glared at him before finally untangling himself and falling out of the mess of wires being caught by Kitsune once again. The black haired Atray looked up at him from his place in Kitsune’s arms, Mr. Mou watched carefully as the dark haired boy stared at him with an unblinking gaze. The silver haired teen stroked his hair before pulling him into a tight embrace.
“Happy birthday Night” Kitsune whispered. Night’s gaze tremble in disbelief. Resignation of the voice registered as the one who had been talking to him all this time during birth and his short slumber. The people in the room seemed to clam down. For months Kitsune had been talking to the sleeping boy though Night was never awake to answer him or keep up the conversation. The dark void in his heart slowly melted away but his fear stayed lingering near by convincing him it best to keep his mouth shut.
For now he merely relaxed into the hold of those strong arms around him his eyes moving towards the group of men and women who stared with disbelief written all over there faces. The monster know as Night had quieted and calmed down laying still staring blankly at the people who stared back. Kitsune idly brushed his fingers through Night’s dark locks to comfort him.
Night seemed to react around people better now. Though there were some things that everyone realized. Night didn’t talk. Didn’t seem to understand a word spoken to him nor was he able to pay attention long enough to understand them. He never spoke and when he was asked to right down what he was thinking he put the pencil in his mouth and chewed on it like a child would. Coming to the conclusion that Night had the body of a sixteen year old he had the brain of that of an child. It was also discovered that Night’s invisible power was in fact thousands of invisible arms that he can create at will sprouting from his back using his inner Matria the best part about his arms is that they are unseen and only touch things when he want them too meaning they can pass through solid objects..
He show good reaction time and his reflex’s were above average, his durable body allowed him to be knocked around and not break a single bone in his body. Bruising and wounds heal within seconds, and his skin pushing out bullets and quickly repair it’s self before major damage can be done. Though burns seemed to take longer to heal. He is fast and strong though said to be an idiot and speech was far far above him.
Kitsune wore a dark black military uniform as he stood waiting for Wraith to meet him at the main gate to make their rounds. He fixed his hat straightening before turning after hearing soft foot steps behind him. It was Wraith who wore the same uniform as Kitsune a red arm band round his upper arm with the emblem of the empire on it. “Hey Wraith” Kitsune greeted him. He looked upset for some reason. “something wrong?” he asked. Wraith stopped his eyebrow twitching with annoyance.
“Why don’t you ask him” he spat. Kitsune quirked an eyebrow before seeing Night peek out from behind him. He wore the uniform as well his hat sitting croaked on his head. Kitsune chuckled as Night smiled at him hugging Wraith’s leg.
“Heh” Kitsune began. “I think he likes you” he mused. Wraith glared at him.
“This isn’t funny! He’s been fallowing me around ALL day! And creepy part is he never says ANYTHING!!” he yelled. Kitsune laughed cocking his head to the side.
“Aww come on! He’s cute!” Kitsune beamed as Night ran up to him hugging his waist. The darker boy snorted.
“First Mia and Dia now him, I swear I can’t catch a break” he sighed. Kitsune crouched down in front of Night to fix his hat.
“It’s not so bad” Kitsune added looking up at Wraith who stood crossing his arms his usual scowl on his face.
“Easy for you to say you don’t have to baby sit all the time, try it you’ll wanna kill the kid after just an hour” Wraith assured him as they began their patrol of the empire.
“I’m not you I actually enjoy people company” Kitsune teased. 1107 sighed placing his hands behind his head as he casually walked with Kitsune and Night.
“I’ll never understand you people” he sighed giving in. Kitsune smiled at him.
“Same here” he agreed. Night walked in between Kitsune and Wraith. It was late at Night and the city streets were lit with the street light’s. it was quiet and hardly anyone was up conational a car or two would drive by but only a few. Out of boredom Kitsune and Wraith started plying I spy.
“I spy with my little eye something……….black” Wraith began Night rolled his eyes.
‘I spy something stupid’
“Night’s hair” Kitsune guessed. Wraith shook his head no. “The our uniforms?” he guessed again. Wraith sighed.
“Yeah, this is dumb lets go home early tonight” he suggested. Kitsune shook his head.
‘Sounds good to me….’ Night thought.
“We’ll get in trouble” the silver haired teen sighed. “We only have one more hour lets just get it over with” Wraith sighed.
“Whatever, I still say we go home”
“Wraith…”
“Huh?”
“Shut up” the three continued on their patrol unknowing of a group of men that watched from the shadows. Wraith walked with his hands in his pockets until it came to him.
“Hey did you hear what happened to Toby and Gunner?” wraith asked. Kitsune looked to him.
“Hm?”
“Apparently they were jumped and beat to death, the details are iffy but they’re bodies were found hung up on a lamp post in these parts” Wraith explained. Night listened intently but pretended to be more concerned with the sleeve of his jacket.
“Oh I remember that, they were older models weren’t they?” Kitsune continued. Wraith nodded.
“Yeah, 1008 and 1007” he pointed out.
“That old huh?” Kitsune said shocked that Jenova had allowed them to live for so long after being named out dated. The group in the shadows moved through the shadows falling them quietly carrying clubs and other mundane weapons. Kitsune yawned stretching then putting his arms back down at his waist, his hand brushed against Night’s briefly. “Sorry” Kitsune said quickly withdrawing his hand and putting it in his pocket, Night looked up at him before sighing and shuffling along.
“Hey” wraith whispered just barely audible. “I’m starting to get hungry is our run done yet?” he asked. Kitsune sighed.
“Almost I’m a bit hun-” suddenly an arrow shot by his head, quickly the group stopped and turned looking behind them.
“Damn it I missed” a man chuckled in a strange tone. He held a cross bow in his hands and a quiver on his back. The three took a defensive position their hands finding their weapons. Night stood blankly cocking his head to the side as he looked at the weapon in the mans hands.
‘what a strange weapon…’ curious he walked toward the man his eyes fixated on the bow, the man snorted.
“Hey door stop what’cha lookin’ at?” he jeered. He was joined by a few other who held clubs and boards with nails in them.
“Kiddo I suggest you run along home before things get nasty” another spat. Night stood a few feet away coming into the light the emblem for Atrays’s was sewn on his chest, he stared at the bow still in the mans hand.
“Huh?” a man sighed aloud noticing the emblem. “Ah! So you’re an Atray then!” he mused bringing the club from it’s resting place on his shoulder down by his waist. Kitsune watched carefully as they were surround by others. “Sorry Kiddo but this is what you get for working for that damned witch!”
“Damn fools” Wraith cursed drawing his sword and getting into a ready position. The man raised his club over Night head to bring it down on him.
“Nighty night kiddo!” suddenly he was split in half by an invisible arm again, blood splattered across the ground the people around the now disconnected man. The man with the bow stepped back ready to scream when his head was sliced through by the unseen force. His head fell from his body rolling across the blood stained ground, he dropped the bow before falling over. Night picked up the interesting weapon and held it loosely in his hand.
‘it’s heavy…’ a man trembled backing away from Night before dropping his switch blade and turning to run.
“NO! I don’t want to die!” Night looked to him raising the loaded weapon and pointing it at the retreating man, he pulled the trigger releasing the arrow. The arrow flew forward embedding it’s self into the back of the mans skull, he too fell dead in the street. Night looked back at the weapon in his hand.
‘not bad but not my taste…’ Night loaded the cross bow again point it at one of he men that surrounded Wraith and Kitsune. The crowd was thick with thugs poised to beat the hell out of them. Suddenly a man fell blood splattering out of his mouth before he hit the ground, an arrow was protruding through his neck, he was still partially alive clawing at the arrow in his throat. The group turned seeing the small bow with the cross bow and quiver. Wraith looked at him with an unblinking gaze.
“Night…” Kitsune muttered. The men growled at him.
“Your going to pay for that kid” one growled pulling out a switch blade, another joined him with an axe. Night look at the strange blade in his hand, a blade suddenly came out of the hilt like a dart. Strange weapon but far to small for him to have some real fun with. The man with the blade charged at him knife ready. A few others ran from behind him going after the young Atray. Night cocked his head to the side before merely walking forward his unseen arm slashed around him cutting through everyone before they cloud even get close enough to hit him. After he had killed the small band of thugs the others started to retreat recoiling away form them quickly down the street.
“RUN!“ They yelled quickly disappearing into the shadows. Kitsune sheathed his sword releasing a sigh of relief glad that he didn’t have the use it on anyone. Wraith grumbled as he put away his weapon.
Nigh found the switch blade and picked it up playing around with it. Wraith rolled his eyes as he walked past him.
“You can keep the blade but the cross bow stays here” he said firmly. Night shrugged dropping the cross bow and quiver, he then turned on his heel to fallow Wraith and Kitsune while playing with the knife.
“Let’s go home” Kitsune whispered patting Night’s head fixing his hat again. Wraith stretched yawning.
“Dido” he mused as they walked home.
Holy Demonz
Chapter 1 Human Nights
It was late spring, the sakura blossoms fell lightly off the trees as summer drew near. The sun was starting to set on the city of Tokyo. The sun continued to fall further into it’s hour of twilight. Valu sat at her desk watching the sun set out of her sliding glass door to her buoyancy. Her head resting in her hand. She tapped her pencil on the desk and sighed as she flipped open her text book. She was dressed in her pj’s but she wanted to do some studying before she went to sleep. She might be able to get in at most two hours of studying so long as her little distraction does drop by. Valu tucked her hair behind her ear as she read chapter six of her literature book.
Valu looked up to her buoyancy door when she heard a stone hit the glass. She sighed and glanced at her clock it was now eight o’clock. She stood up and opened her buoyancy door and looked around her. The cool air blew around her. Nobody was even outside her window. It must have been some stupid kids who found it funny to throw thing at peoples windows. Valu sighed and turned around to walk back into her room. Then there sitting on her bed was her little distraction.
“Hey Valu what’s up?” he asked with a smile. Valu sighed and shut the door behind her. She was used to him sneaking into her room by now.
“Humo, what are you doing?” a stupid question she knew but she felt like asking it anyway. Humo smiled innocently.
“I’m here to see you silly” She hadn‘t known Humo for a very long time, they met last summer before they began there freshmen year. He was almost two faced, around her he was a sweet well sweeter to her then other people. But to others he was rude and quiet and some times sarcastic. Humo was five feet tall with pale skin and ruby colored eyes. He was wearing a black t-shirt with a whit upside down cross on the front, and black pants with a white belt. his hair was set in his usual black spikes. He was wearing a black choker and as usual three sets of small earrings in both ears. Humo smiled and laid down on her bed resting his head on his hands behind his head, his legs hanging over the bedside. Valu rolled her eyes. She looked over Humo’s face and noticed a fresh bruise on his cheek bone.
“Humo your face” she began. Humo looked at her in confusion.
“Nani? Valu” he asked. Valu brushed her hand across the purple mark on his cheek. “Ow, Valu that’s still tender, don’t touch it”
“You got in another fight again didn’t you?” she asked angrily. Humo sat up and pushed her hand away.
“None of your business Valu” he said calmly. Valu leaned down to his level and looked at him with big beautiful eyes.
“Humo I’m worried about you is all you’ve been getting in a lot of those lately” she said quietly. Humo Sighed and stood up.
“Baka, you have no reason to worry I haven‘t lost a fight yet” Humo glanced down at her desk and saw her textbook laying open on the desk. “You studying?” he asked trying to change the subject.
“Oh yes I was, there’s a test tomorrow in langue you did study for it right?” She already knew what the answer was going to be but she felt like asking anyway. Humo shrugged his shoulders.
“Naw, totally forgot besides I’m skipping langue tomorrow anyway” He scratched the back of his head then he looked at the clock. “Well I have an hour so what do you want to do?” He asked putting his hands in his pockets. Valu sat on her bed and tilted her head to the side.
“What do you mean what do you want to do?” she asked a bit confused. Humo sighed letting his eyes slide shut.
“I mean, do you want me to stay or leave so you can study” He explained.
“Oh” Valu sighed and thought about it for a while. She needed to study for this test, but if Humo left there’s no one around to keep him out of trouble. Humo bent over to her level his hands still in his pockets.
“It’s not a tuff question to answer, yes or no?” he pressed leaning closer to her. Valu moved back her face got hot.
“I-I want you to stay--” She began. “But I really need to study so can you be quiet?” Humo smiled and flopped on the bed. Valu moved back over to her desk and sat down in her chair. Humo laid on her pink comforter staring at the ceiling for awhile. Humo closed his eyes and laid quietly on the bed, Valu tapped her pencil and glanced over at the clock again. Eight-thirty. She sighed and deicide that studying was a lost cause. She turned in her chair to look at the bed behind her. Besides she really wanted to know who he fought today. Humo was laying with his eyes closed like he was sleeping.
“Humo?” Valu called to him to confirm if he was sleeping or not.
“Hn” Humo sighed letting his eyes drift open. He sat up on hi elbows to look at her. “Nani?” He asked. Valu smiled.
“You look sleepy why don’t you skip your fight tonight and go home?” the beautiful girl offered.
“Hn” Humo rolled over on her bed to his side.
“Humo you can’t sleep here!” She quietly yelled. Humo didn’t answer her. Valu huffed. ‘Humo, you gothic brat you can’t sleep here, what would my mom say?” she heard a light giggle from her guest. “Humo!” Valu climbed into her bed and leaned over Humo getting ready yell in his ear. Humo felt the bed move and he rolled over. Unexacting Valu and Humo’s lips met for brief moment. Valu jumped back and screamed. “Pervert!” she smacked Humo across the face.
“Valu is everything okay?” a voice called from downstairs.
“Ah yes mother every things fine!” she yelled back. Humo rubbed his face where he was smacked.
“Dammit valu, you don’t want me to get in fights yet you hit on me enough to make it look like I got in a fight” He complained.
“You deserved it” She snapped back. Suddenly she heard footsteps coming up the stairs. “Your kidding me” Valu pushed Humo out of onto the buoyancy. “Stay here” she ran back into her room just as her door opened.
“Hey little sis everything okay in here?” her big brother asked. He was a senior in Valu and Humo’s school. He was a handsome boy with short brown hair and baby blue eyes.
“Yes Shuskae every things fine” She laughed nervously. Her brother glanced around the room.
“Say That little brat isn’t in here is he?” he asked.
“Who?” She asked.
“That boy you always hang out with, Humo he’s not in here is he?” He asked again. Valu smiled.
“Don’t be stupid, I just stubbed my foot was all” she tried to lie.
“Right so you scream pervert as a result?” he pressed. Valu stammered skipping over thoughts of how to explain this without telling the truth to Shuskae.
“Ummmmm” She hummed. Shuskae closed the door behind him and crossed his arms letting his eyes slid shut.
“Where’s he hiding Valu? If you tell me and tell him to leave I won’t tell mom” he promised. Valu groaned. She didn’t want to tell Shuskae that Humo visited her almost every night. He’d be in her room then every night to check on her. Over protective big brother. Her brother sighed. “He’s a trouble maker Valu, and over all I don’t trust him, so just tell me and I’ll kick him out” He continued.
“Ummmmm” Valu tried to stall. Her brother walked closer to her.
“Valu now” he demanded. Valu sighed. And was about to point out onto the buoyancy when they both heard Shuskae’s cell phone ring. He pulled his phone out of his pocket and answered it.
“Hello”
/Hey Shuskae/
It was Humo.
“What do you want” he said curtly.
/Hey calm down I didn’t call you because I wanted to, Valu’s not answering her phone can you tell her to call me/
Shusake looked over to Valu then he looked to her small pink phone that laid on her desk. He picked it up and put it in his pocket.
“Shuske!” Valu yelled. He ignored her and went back to Humo.
“Listen you stay away from my sister got it!”
/Omfg your such a fag lol well see ya/
“He said lol” Shuske said with a sigh. Valu smiled
“That’s Humo for you” She laughed.
Shusake looked at Valu. “You can have your cell phone back later” her big brother left the room and completely forgot about there conversation about Humo. He must have felt good that he “managed” to keep Humo from talking to Valu that he forgot about him. Valu sighed and turned to the buoyancy door. Humo slid it open smiled.
“Heh, your brother’s pmsing” Humo joked. Valu smiled.
“No he just doesn’t like you is all” she waved with a smile. “But that trick cast me my cell phone” she complained.
“Aw you’ll get it back in the morning, sooooooooo away way” Humo Began. Valu looked at him he never said sooooooo any way unless he wanted something.
“Nani Humo?’ she asked. Humo scratched his head.
“Well your house is closer to the fight spot then my house so I was wondering…….can I with you?” He asked innocently.
“What you can’t and you don’t even have you stuff with you?” He started. Humo smiled his crocked smile.
“That’s were your wrong” Humo opened the door and pulled his black bag out from under the small wooden chair. “Ta-duhhh” he said happily.
“But Shusake, he’ll----” Valu began. Humo shook his head.
“So lock your door” he answered as if it were obvious.
“That will just raise more questions” she yelled. Humo put his finger over his mouth. Valu cocked her eyebrow. He we go.
“Then tell him that you want to sleep in peace without him probing your room duh” Humo argued. Valu thought about it for a moment. Humo was a good lair and he was just a friend so it shouldn’t matter anyway.
“Okay fine you can stay”
“Yayyyyyyyyy” Humo cheered quietly. Humo then glanced at the clock then back to Valu.
“Well I gotta go be back soon” He playfully pattered her on the head and left out of the window. Valu sighed and tucked Humo’s bag under her bed. And waited for him to return.
Valu was sitting at her desk studying when Humo came back to her house through the window of coarse. It was an hour and a half later after he left her house. Valu glanced towards Humo and gasped. He was a mess. His nose was bleeding and his eye was a bit swollen, and a small blood stain on his lower lip. He wasn’t wearing his t-shirt any more just a black tang top. He was carrying his other shirt in his hand. Small blood stains blotted his t-shirt.
“Humo! Oh my god it looks like you were it by a truck!” She panicked. Humo flopped down on her bed. Valu sat next to him on the bed. “Humo are you okay, Humo answer me”
“Baka calm down, besides if you think I’m messed up you should see the other guys hehehe, now quiet You’ll wake up Shusake” He mumbled not bothering to put his usual tone behind it. He smiled at her and put his finger over her lips. “And I really don’t want to deal with him okay, now be a good little girl and be quiet”
“I’m already awake” Shuskae said form the doorway. Valu shot around and saw him standing there with his arms crossed. Humo smirked.
“Too late heh, okay then I’ll see my self out” Humo went to stand but valu pulled him down to sit next to her. Shuskae sighed.
“You walk home in your condition I don’t think so, you can stay until you feel better no later, Valu go get some ice and some band aids” Valu nodded and walked out the door closing it behind her. Shuskae sighed and looked at Humo. “Do you know how pathetic you look?”
“Nope, don’t have a mirror” He joked sticking out his tongue. Shuskae sighed.
“You know she worries about you” Humo looked up at him “I can’t see why thou, out of all of the students in school she hangs out with you” He was quiet for a moment then he spoke again. “Why do you hang out with Valu Humo?’ he asked. Humo glanced up at him.
“No reason really” Humo’s face grew hot under his skin. Shuskae smirked.
“So you like her huh”
“Don’t be stupid Shusake” Humo said turning away from him. Humo then turned back to him. “Say how did you know I was going to spend the night anyway?”
“Huh oh that I was listening through the door”
“Nani” Humo said a bit surprised. Shuskae smiled and held up his finger with a smile.
“Heh you thought you were soooooo smart huh little guy” Just then Valu entered the room with ice and a box of band aids. She sat on the bed next to Humo and patched him up. Shuskae yawned and left the room leaving Humo a warning and that he’d be listening. Valu huffed after he left.
“I can’t believe he’d actually think we’d do something” She laughed putting the icepack in place.
“Baka, Ow careful that’s tender there” he complained. Humo then leaned back on her bed holding the icepack over his one eye. Valu yawned and starched. “Go to sleep Valu it’s late” Humo murmured.
“But-yam nwot sleepy” She stumbled over words as she yawned and rubbed her eyes. Humo smirked and got up off of the bed and laid on the coach in her room still holding the icepack over his eye. Valu yawned and fell asleep in her bed a while later. Humo chuckled then he crawled back into bed with her. Her reaction would be pretty funny when she woke to see him. Humo sighed then turned his head and saw her sleeping face. He lightly brushed a lock of hair from her face and sighed turning off the light.
