NOTE: goddamn it's been foreva!! Sorry this took so long and if it sux i'm reallllllyyyyyy sorry!!
Kisu went toward the kitchen in a huff as i lay back in my cumphy chair and sighed long and hard. The kid--Hiroki--was wondering around, staring at anything and everything that was the slightest bit shinny. He eyes grew to the size of saucers when he did a doubletake at the ruby-encrusted Ruby Slippers that we had stolen in Paris in....HELL KNOWS WHEN!!
I guess when your a vampire...time passes you by too fast to catch it,I thought with a saddened thought, but easily slipped back into the badass self i was when Kisa returned holding three crystl goblets--it's red contents slushing back and forth as she walked.
I grabbed mine and sipped it. The tangy liquid slid along my tounge and made my mind fizz with red haze for a moment as i regained some strength.
"You could say 'thank you' you know!!" Kisu snapped at me, putting her hand on her hip.
I just glared at her as i downed my drink.Lovely.
"Come on, Hiroku!" Kisu said to the brat.
he hurried past me and for the slightest second i thought i saw him glance and smile in my direction.He took the goblet from her gently and said, "Thank you" in the most bitter-sweet, little-brat way it almost made me puke!
He sat in the red tasel chair across from me and Kisu took the couch. Silence envaded the air and we all kind of shifted with the uncomfortable atmocphere;even me.
"So..."Kisa started around a sip.
"SO WHAT'S WITH THE DAMN BRAT!!!???!!!" i yelled, sliing to the edge of my seat. i couldn't take it anymore. What the heck was with this kid! Hiroki glanced at me with big redish eyes as he pouted slightly and for a split second i felt my stomach flip with guilt.
"That's exactly what i wanted to know. You brought him with us, Houyou," Kisu said calmly.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP!! THERE WAS NO TIME!!!" I yelled at her.
We continued to argue as Hiroki sipped his "drink" and watched us fight back and forth like he was enjoying himslef.
After about an hour he cleared his throat and Kisu and i both looked at him like we had forgot he was there. "WHAT?!" we both yelled at the same time.
"I guess i have some explainin' to do," He said calmly as if the happy-go- lucky kid vamp was gone. All means of seriousness was etched into the features of his face. Kisu and i looked at eachother and sat down again. I glared at nothing particular and pretended not to give a damn when really, i was surprised.
"What is there really to explain? Your a kid theif,"Kisu said bluntly.
Hiroki laughed bitterly. "Have you ever heard of the Shadow?"He asked and smirked.
I jumped to the edge of my chair. "YOU MEAN YOUR THE DAMN AS HELL FUCKING SHADOW??!!" i yelled.
Kisu fainted as the damn brat giggled. The Shadow,I thought and narrowed my eyes. This damn kid can't be the Shadow. The Shadow is a legand!
The Shadow, a thief that can never and has never been caught. Right after Kisu and I started to become the X&O thievies, Shadow was right on ours as we traveled around the world stealing and living it up.
It must have taken me a while to get back to my senses because Kisu was just coming around and Hiroki had fallen asleep on the chair, hugging his goblet like a teddy bear.
"AW!" Kisu said immeadiatly.
"Don't you 'AW' him! We got to get this brat out of here!" I said.
"Why?"
"Because he's The Shadow. The SHADOW!!we can't have this kid here. He could be playin g us so he could steal our secrets."I said harshly.
The #1 rule:Don't trust anyone but the partner.
I was going to keep that rule;this kid wasn't going to break it.
"Well, he's already here so why not let him spend the night?"Kisu said.
"NO WAY IN HELL!! kick his ass out right now!" I demanded.
"No! He's staying! Now i'm going off to bed, you should too!" Kisu said while scooping the kid up like a toddler and going up the grand stair case."I'll show him the guest room." She said over her shoulder.
Tsk! DAMN KID!! i was so mad i made the goblet in my hands shatter. i licked the bloody cuts which healed in seconds and made my was upstairs.
Once in the confinds of my dark room, i lay on my giant,old canopy bed and fell into a deep sleep.
