Chapter four: ignorance is bliss
Khan
watched the next spectacle a short while later from the living room couch in
his dog form. To his feet sat the younger Orcrot with Tetsu on the floor.
Holding the babe between them while looking at it too. The officers had come in
only a few minutes later as the agent and him. As had the friend of Leon, to
bring the pizza and some other stuff, bought for them.
This time,
neither Khan nor Tetsu found something odd with the meat and other food.
It was
packet away from Jill and Leon fast. Currently, an entire emergency team of the
law enforcers was taking the steaks with them and interrogated Jill for all she
knew about the supposed druggy. When done, they all left again besides Dean who
had wanted to give Leon an update on the entire research this evening.
The clock
showed Khan that it was far past eleven in the night now and Daiyu was fast
asleep in Chris arms that in turn leaned tiredly against Tetsu.
Sighing,
the youth got up and brought her to her bed. Tetsu stretched too and went right
after the teen. It made Khan squint at the pair while thinking fast. To him it
looked like Tetsu had taken a shine in the sixteen years old teen. He shrugged
it off. Did not matter to him. The Tao Tie could take care of himself quite
nicely, as well, Khan was aware of and the teenager was safe with Tetsu. The
latter mentioned would bite everyone to death who dared to lay a single finger
on the boy. If not worse. Tetsu’s species was known to be ferocious if annoyed already;
He did not want to know what the Totetsu would do to a fool that enraged him
really.
Doing
something so unwise as to harm one Chris Orcrot… he shuddered.
Not even
Khan wanted to be a part of that mayhem then! He knew enough to stay out of the
mythical beast’s path in that respect. They could even kill high-ranking demons
easily if needed. That should alone say enough. Tetsu and his kin freely roamed
any plane they wished. None of the inhabitants was safe from these creatures
when they marked them as prey.
Humans,
they did not even pose a treat to such creatures in the normal.
Well, if
you canceled out Leon Orcrot from the rule. This, Khan knew as much. Had heard
of the cop’s stunt to shoot a host body of Tetsu and have survived it as well
as the beast try to bite him on every occasion possible. That man, even Khan
had gotten so much until now, was something else entirely. His glare earlier
had told the hellhound as much.
There had
shortly been his dead written in those blue eyes and Khan had gotten that too.
That human
had a strong believe in his own capabilities, was a strong soul as well as he
was dangerously sharp. No wonder that Kami wanted that man so badly, Khan
laughed silently to himself. Leon was what many would call a strong man. With a
blazing soul to match the fiery spirit of his, he liked Leon.
That man
would even survive in the hells if needed, he realized fast and that alone
marked Leon as truly special to Khan.
He shortly
wondered what a little one born of that cunning Kami and that strong willed human
would be like and had to laugh loudly after gulping a few times before that. Much
to Jill, Leon and Dean’s mutual confusion who had looked oddly at the suddenly madly
laughing dog demon on one of Leon’s couches. Shrugging it off, all three went
back to contemplate the several names of syndicates and crime lords that Dean’s
research had dug up while sitting on the other couches around Khan.
He learned
that way that everyone in this room was equally bright and dangerous in their own
respective ways.
They
complimented each other with sometimes even ending an opened up sentence for
the other. These three were an unholy good working force all on their own. One
that was effective and currently that superior that even Khan was impressed. Idly
he asked himself what those three could do together in the hell planes and a
new snort escaped him at the thought.
Enough to
do damage to too many of their inhabitants to make themselves easily at home
there he figured and grinned.
Too bad,
they were pure souls. Otherwise, it would have been entertaining to watch them,
Khan grumpily realized. It was sometimes soo boring there that it hurt! Those
three were fun at least. He eyed the clock again. “Not to be a fun breaker but
should you not try to solve that out tomorrow? It is rather late and Dean has
to be up at seven.” His voice rose them all in under a few seconds. Including
Dean who still was determined to bring him back into the shop the next day.
Dean,
finally after eying the clock as well, called it a night and took Khan with him
to drive home. He was so darn tired. As much as he hated to admit it, Khan had
a point. He reached his house just in time to see it explode and the rests of
it fly around his ears.
The only
thing that rescued his ass was Khan’s rather fast reaction time.
Instead of
being burned alive in his car, the man was transported rather roughly out of it
until he fell inelegantly onto his neighbors tediously mowed grass lawn. What
broke his shoulder in the process but that was unimportant for Dean right now!
What was interesting him more was that Khan looked rather injured and that the helldog
looked fairly mad after someone fast driving away from the crime scene.
However, his
neighbor cared the most for it that Dean’s former car was now a part of his
former living room wall.
Well,
halfway it was. The other half still struck out of the wall to it. Minus the
driver door through, out of that one Khan had catapulted them both out off. It
had come to rest into the crown of the nearby Acorn tree of the next neighbor
of Dean who eyed it unbelievingly from his bedroom window situated on the
second level. Dean shook his head and screamed at the men to call the cops,
while checking Khan over. The helldog was already healing under his eyes what
had Dean stare a short moment at the demon and then fall back to sit on his butt
while cradling his arm.
The next few
hours flew by with him giving his attack report, having to file out his
insurance report, go to the hospital to get his arm checked and so on.
In the end,
Leon came with his van and collected Dean from the hospital. The drive back was
a silent one. Until Khan joined them in the minivan after getting him back,
from the called vet. Khan was loaded in after checked on and off all three was
again. The demon changed as fast as he was hidden in the van and begun to cuss
worse as anything both men had ever heard before. It gave both a grim pleasure
to have Khan cuss that wildly were they were too shocked to do so right now. That
was until Leon found his voice box back and too cursed up a wild streak that
made some bystanders at a traffic light controlled walkover blush and move fast
away from the madmen in the mini van.
The demon
even managed to throw an empty can at the outside street right out of Leon’s
open window in his anger to alleviate his fury in a way.
Not even
Leon said something about it this time. Reaching his home Khan changed back for
as long it needed all three males to reach Leon’s flat. Barely in he changed
again and went on to curse up another wild streak as if the short walk up had
never happened. Just now in a considerately lower voice as before. No need to
wake Daiyu up, he figured. Suddenly he threw his arms up in the air and then
went like a bat out of hell out of Leon’s open balcony window to vanish on them
all.
The trio he
left in his wake stared for some seconds after him, then at themselves to
finally shrug in an eerily unison before they went back to make sleeping
arrangements for Dean.
Leon’s flat
slowly grew crowded they realized. Originally designed for a family of maximum
fife, he luckily had three bedrooms and one children room to his usage. Originally,
that flat had come with a small extra office room too, but that one was currently
a turned storage room of sorts. Still full with stuff that Jill could rescue
from her home and from Chris. Tomorrow they would go and change that. It would
be a pain to move the boxes to the underground level room but Leon thought it
to be better.
Jill was
currently settled in the guest room of the quarters while Leon slept in the
master bedroom, Chris was in the third bedroom and Daiyu slept the children’s
room.
Dean would
temporally get the storage room once cleaned to live in until he found a new
housing. For once Leon was glad about the space he had to his disposal for
paying so much each month even having only to pay the half of the normal price.
His new two flat sharers agreed fast to take on the bill together with the next
paycheck in exchange.
With the
exception of the broken bone in his arm and a few scratches and minor burns Dean
had gotten away rather cheap and he knew it. Without Khan, he would have been
toast!
Laying in
his temporally bed on the biggest of the three couches, Dean had no illusions
of what Khan would leave in his wake for his fellow agent’s to find. If even anything
was there left to find for them in the end. He shrugged it off. Somehow, he
realized that, he was still in shock. However, Dean gave not a shit for once
what would happen to the ones who just blew his life up in a manner of
speaking.
He was taken
off the case for the time being, Dean knew as much.
Turning, he
closed his eyes and tried to catch on sleep.
In another
part of LA, Khan just finished to transport the last unfortunate soul of a man
to his plane of the hells while giving a minor demon orders to what to do with
the souls that had tried to kill Dean when being alive. Behind him, the elder
count was looking on with indifferent eyes. Secretly, the count almost pitied
the soul’s… almost. These men would never leave hell again. Too doomed were their
soul’s already and Khan was widely known to have played with his victims for
ages at times.
Not to
mention that he had this time even given them over to even worse creatures of
his plane as playthings as an added punishment.
Shrugging,
the oldest of the count’s went on to watch the down burning estate in which the
men had been in. That had once been a grand villa. Well, just a few hours
before, now it was burning down to ashes under the helpless eyes of the
firefighters and the police emergency group. The left over bodies would not be
reconcilable to anyone except by their dental charts but all of that was not
caring Sofu D at all. Toni Calletti was history and that was that.
Sofu did
just care for it that the agent had survived.
“I take it
that he and they are alright? And good work, Khan. I am sure my grandson will
be pleased hearing about this.” The demon spawn nodded sharply. “Yes, count D.
He has a broken arm but is otherwise ok. A little worse to wear at best. It was
a bit on the edge but in the end, we made it out of that cursed car vehicle in
one piece each. I hope he will be, I for once, be. Dean is rather easy company,
as long one ignores his penchant to attract so damn much trouble!” He calmly
told the Deity while turning now too to watch the human’s hopeless tries to get
the blazing inferno under their control. Khan had let a bit too loose in his thirst
for vengeance and had let flames from his plane escape into the mortal world by
accident. They had fast burned the house down around him and his victims.
Impossible
to get them out again by any human means before they had not burned down all
that there was in their path, he knew that best.
Bowing to
the oldest of the D’s, he made his way back to Leon’s household to take up his
duty from Tetsu again, who currently kept his human safe for him there with his
humans. He was cussing softly under his breath all the way back. Khan was more
than steaming mad even after having tortured Toni and his goons for the last
hours. Those human souls would need millennia to pay it back to him until he
would let go on them again.
Until Khan
was satisfied with their punishment.
To dare to try
to blow his human up! The nerve of that three times cursed man and his hooligans…
Khan let a new stream of curses escape his lips. Reaching the balcony had him fast
find out that Tetsu lay on it by nearly stepping onto the Totetsu by accident.
“Hey! Watch it Mr. clumsy feet! Back so soon? I thought you would enjoy yourself
for longer.” The demon nodded at the Tao Tie and his newly arrived friends from
the pest shop. He eyed them curiously. Each he had seen before there on
occasion and each he recognized as special right away. One was an odd cat boy
that he had seen before in the shop.
A rather
feral looking youth with unusual baleful eyes, twitchy ears and long limbs. Maybe
at the age equivalent of a human of seven to eight years? The long claws of
that one looked as if he wore golden nail polish and darn long and sharp to
boot! The skin in human form was light brown with stripes on each face side in
gold and he had his eyes lined with kohl and gold, what made them look bigger
as usual. Each iris was entirely bluish-green. Currently he stared feral at
Khan and then he grinned a slow, fanged smile at the demon spawn that had Khan
shudder out of a point he didn’t get.
The other
was a like a teenager looking Kitsune male of indeterminate age in a
haphazardness outfit that would have fit better inside a nightclub as onto the
terrace.
The latter of
the group around Tetsu made Khan gulp a bit in secret. Ten Chan was a nine
tails. A deity like Tetsu in some way and very precarious in his own right. The
old Kitsune grinned at him. “Heard the older count let you run free on a small
romp?” The demon lord nodded. Showing his fangs while he grinned and spoke,
Khan finally settled between the odd group on Leon’s enduring veranda. “Yup!
Why? Need one too?” The fox boy nodded slowly. “Maybe in the future, he
promised me to let me have the ones that blew up Miss Jill’s estate.” He gave
Khan a sharp look. “D isn’t happy to have nearly lost the agent. He was rather
mad when hearing this. Sent us here as guardians for the others.”
Ten sighed
and Khan rubbed his face.
“Leon san
will not be happy learning of this and neither will it be Miss Jill, I fear.”
Khan
nodded, he could see were the Kitsune’s fears rooted from by have watched them
for only a few hours. Pointing at the cat boy Khan addressed his curiosity.
“Who is that?” Ten followed his thump to the boy and grinned wildly. “Oh he? He
is just little Rajid. A Pharaoh Cat tom. He may look not like much to you and
is rather young but he will be good company for sweet little Daiyu Chan and
trust me: he can keep her safe when it comes down to it. From what or who ever
tries to hurt her.
Is a
descendant of the old protectors of the temples and beasts of Basted. You
better do not mess with him. He is as normal as the rest of us here, if you get
my drift?”
Khan nodded
eying the Catboy warily.
“And the
birdie that flies around the building over our heads?” Now he had Tetsu Rajid
and Ten chuckle at his clever observation. “She is a Harpy, yes, exactly one of
those ones. She usually does not say much, so you better do not go and make her
mad either, Khan. She is the most vicious that the count’s have in their halls.
The most deadly and terrible one of the bunch that nests in there. He lets her
out rarely and only if really needed. Not even, I know her name and neither have
the wish to ever learn it. They do not tell them others; have power or
something like that. Is here to watch the building and to lure attackers away
if needed.”
Khan had
heard enough.
He rose and
went inside by stepping casually over the cat boy. Barely missing his playful long
tail. The tom seems not to mind him. He just looked shortly after Khan, and
then he too rose and slipped soundlessly inside. Curios of his little charge.
He had already seen her earlier, asleep in her bed. Still, he wanted to watch and
guard her sleep. This place did not feel safe enough to Rajid to feel that he
could leave her alone for longer as necessary. Humans and their false sense of
security, he snorted. This building could easily be invaded or become a fire
hazard in his watchful eyes.
On his way to
Daiyu, he run over Leon’s way to the bathroom.
The man
shortly blinked down at the unusual tom. “D sent you, eh?” The cat boy nodded,
surprised of not being screamed at right away. Was this the same human the
others had told him about? He looked a tad different to Rajid and behaved a lot
calmer as told. Leon picked Rajid carefully up to look at the strange cat a bit
more closely before he put him down next to the door of his daughter’s room
again.
“You better
keep her safe then, ok?”
Again,
Rajid could only nod in his surprise. He earned a wonderful petting and
scratching behind his large ears for that. One that made him purr in delight.
That man knew how to treat a cat well, the tom thought before he licked Leon’s
hand and vanished inside of the dark room of the little girl. With a catty
swirl of his long tail, that barely misses Leon’s feet. Leon could only chuckle
at the antics of the oriental looking and rather big cat.
Then he
went on with his original plan and used the bathroom.
After that,
he went to the balcony. He had seen before going inside the bath, the others
sitting there and wanted to know what this all was about. Although, Leon had a
good hunch already. Meant, a well-known fox with too many tails and Tetsu would
give him some answers. He settled rather calmly between the two under their flabbergasted
gazes. When seeing him suddenly fold out of the darkness of the flat.
“Heard you
murmur and woke up from it, so, duh!” He told them impertinently what had both
smirk back at Leon. “Figures. You always woke too when we tried to do something
stupid while you were at the shop.” Ten told him back with a good-natured grin.
Tetsu just snorted at Leon’s words and went on to stare up at the harpy that
made him nervous.
The harpy
ignored them all she just cared for the to her given task.
She idly
wondered how such a man and his brother could come from a family with such vile
members as those two she had shortly before this sung into madness. Leon did
not know it by now, but his uncle had killed his wife in a bout of insanity and
now was admitted into an asylum for criminals with a psychosis background.
Constantly he
was now seeing the ghosts of the Harpy and her sisters come for him to eat away
at his soul and his wife’s ghost in between to get him back for what he had
done to her.
She
screeched one time before she flew higher up into the clouds to vanish from
even the Tao Tie’s eyesight. Below her Leon gave a shudder when hearing that
strange bird cry. “What the hell was that thing?!” Ten shrugged and Tetsu
hissed at his question. “A harpy, Leon. She luckily for us will stay away
mostly, only guard the building. I don’t like her to be near Chris or anyone
else! Those beasts are evil, trust me. Not a bit evil, like we other mystical
beasts are often are it too but really and truly evil in ways that even we
others of the mythical kind avoid normally being around off.”
Tetsu’s
words made Leon shudder anew.
“Then I am
glad she stays away!” He told Tetsu and Ten after a moment. “What is D thinking
he is doing? Settling his shop slowly over into my flat?” He huffed gruffly.
Ten shock his silver head. “Naa, just a few guardians to be here just in case. Tonight
was a bit close to home for him I guess. He is really miffed, Leon san. Please,
ignore us being here. We mean neither you nor your friends or family any harm,
I swear.”
Nodding,
Leon stood and went back to bed.
Behind him,
the shape of a bad bunny folded out of the night. Just in time to hear Leon’s
last mutters while turning into the form of the elder count.
“With my
luck he sends us a vampire next… oh shit now I have that darn bunny grandpa of
his in my head again!” Sofu raised one sculptured brow while grinning lopsided in
the same second. Both mythical beasts on the terrace tried to smother their
laughs seeing this. “Still not over that at last, that insufferable human!” He
whispered almost non-hearable. Beside him, Ten nearly toppled over in his mirth
while Tetsu clutched at his sides.
He gave the
two silly acting beasts no head and simply went silently inside to have a look
at the agent on the couch and Khan who had taken the other next to Dean before
his feet carried him to the room of Chris. He slept peacefully in his bed. Sofu
looked shortly at the teenager and his amusingly decorated wall with a benign
smile before he silently closed the door to then walk up to the half-open one
of the girl.
His
curiosity got the better out of Sofu this night and he went in despise not
having wanted to originally.
Daiyu slept
peacefully like Chris, with one difference. She clutched at an equally asleep
cat boy in her slumber. Said tom seems not to mind her for her possessive hold
on his fur. To Sofu the two looked like a slightly older child that was
clutched on by little toddler droopily. And what a baby Daiyu was. The little
girl was just as charming as her picture had promised. She made soft sucking
noises in her sleep.
Clad into a
red jumper with colorful teddy bears printed all over, she was sucking on her
pacifier.
Tucking her
gently back into her blanket again Sofu straightened and went silently out
again. He closed the door behind him out. The little girl was clearly Asian
origin, with her mass of black hair and features. He smiled and turned to jump
up with a barely concealed squeal in his shock!
There,
casually leaned against the wall just next to Sofu D, was a sullen Leon Orcrot
with folded arms.
Arching one
blond brow at the Kami intruder of his home and beside the sleep pants naked to
the eyes of his shocked observer. “You know, grandpa, it is highly impolite to
just walk into other peoples flats without to be invited, yeah?” The still
flabbergasted Kami could only nod. The Leon Sofu had known from before would
have already tried to strangle him in the past for doing such a stunt. This new
Leon was not only looking better, he also was calmer!
Shortly the
Kami known as Sofu D checked if Leon was no imposter.
He wasn’t.
just older and a bit calmer, he found out to his new shock and the oldest of
the D’s did something Leon had not believed to ever see the old bat do in his
past: the Kami staggered off inelegantly into the kitchen to flop down rather
gracelessly onto a chair. Still clutching his chest were his heart pounded
madly against his ribcage from the fright of suddenly seeing Leon glare at him.
The man
eyed the deity for a moment before he shrugged and paddled over to the kitchen
to sit down into the opposite chair nonchalantly.
“Hey, old
bat, still feeling ok? Or do I have to fucking go and call D over to get you
some medicine?” Sofu gave Leon a heated glare and a vehement headshake as an
answer. All right, that was the Leon he could deal with! Rude, loud and
foul-mouthed as usual, he almost sighed in his relieve. The other Leon worried
him almost out of his slippers! Yet still, he had trespassed on Leon and had
snuck into the housing… a soft blush made its way over his face. Much to his
growing mortification of having been caught by Leon of all people. It made Leon
chuckle softly and throatily what had Sofu blush even worse in the end.
Muttering a
curse in ancient Chinese Sofu slowly got a good idea what exactly attracted his
grandson to this fool mouthed man so much, to now wreak havoc on his attackers
in the end.
Even he had
to give Leon credit to look… good. His body looked trim and in a good shape.
Well defined muscles were carelessly shown to his eyes when Leon suddenly stood
to make them both tea on the nearby counter and when Leon bend shortly to get
the teapot out from a cupboard he ogled discreetly the ass of the man. Gulping
Sofu shook his head at his own antics. He swore only a moment later violently
under his breath when Leon’s mirthful voice reached his ears.
“Finished
with ogling my ass, Grandpa D?”
Giving Leon
a death glare Sofu D huffed before he turned and pointedly stared out of the window,
down onto the nightly lightened streets of LA. Behind him, that oaf of his
grandson had the gall to chuckle at his rather unusual antics. He wished he
could sink into the floor, he felt more stupid as he had rarely ever before in
his live for have been caught staring… by Leon Orcrot, curse it!
Leon
shrugged at Sofu and turned to take the now hot water from the stove to
carefully put it aside.
“You know,
can we forget that incident and come back to why the hell you are in my home?
It is a bit creepy but hey! A compliment is still a compliment, even coming
from you in such a bizarre way. Oh, and can you tell me what to call you? I
hate it as much as you probably do it to call you Grandpa or bat bunny all the
time!”
Behind him,
Sofu snorted at Leon’s asinine way to put his mind into words before he
chuckled softly.
He guessed
he had deserved that one coming his way, Sofu realized. Still watching the
outside sight he finally relaxed a bit in the chair. “I think Sofu should
suffice, Mr. Orcrot and I do apologize for… my rather immature slip.” Behind him,
Leon was finishing to make tea while he chuckled madly at the Kami’s words.
“Immature
my ass, Sofu D. I know that that means Grandfather in Chinese? Oh well, Sofu it
is then, by the way: My name is not Orcrot, it is Leon, please use it.” He
turned and put to mugs onto the table and then a small stove with the teapot.
Then he turned again and got three other bugs out of the cupboard with another
low chuckle that sent shivers down the elder D’s spine. Much to the latter’s
anew embarrassment. Putting sugar onto the table as well as honey, he sat again
and addressed the three hiding just around the corner to the kitchen with a
laughing voice.
“Hey, you
three idiots, tea is ready, want a cup?” Three different voices cursed
colorfully with subdued tunes while the owners slowly sulked into the kitchen.
Tetsu
sniffed the tea before he took the offered mug full. He did not shovel so much
sugar into it as the count. He rather took to the honey and poured a good bit
into his tea before Ten stole it from him with a growl to not take all of it. Khan
chooses to go without any of it and did rather take the tea back. Leon shrugged
all of them and did the same as Khan. Both shortly shared a look that held the
same contempt at the others large sugar usage in their mugs.
The count,
seeing that look shrugged at both and sipped at the rather good blend of Leon.
The Darjeeling was high quality and tasted rather delicious.
“Where is
this tea from, Captain?” Leon grinned at his try to avoid saying his name. “A
friend of Jill owns a teashop in the city. He is sometimes making own mixes and
selects his assortment all by himself personally from what she told me. I liked
the taste of this one and bought a bit of it for my usage. As well as his
famous children’s beery tea for Daiyu. She loves the taste of it. Wants almost
nothing else lately. Spoiled little princess that she is.”
Leon smiled
besotted while he told Sofu that. The Kami had to smirk at the look. Knowing it
all too well. He often caught himself smiling exactly the same stile when he
watched his reborn son in the late. The beasts around both rolled their eyes in
eerily unison, watching the two tiptoe around each other. Ten, finally having
squeezed the last drop out of the bottle of honey put it into the trash bin
before he worked his spoon gleefully through the mess.
“No
offense, Sofu san, but why are you here? Is something afoul?”
The Kami
softly shook his black haired head and sipped again on his slowly cooling tea.
“No. all is currently well. Do you knew someone by the name Toni Calletti,
Leon?” The man nodded slowly, a look of sharp concentration on his features.
“Oh Yeah! I do know that name and *knew* that cursed man all too well!” He gave
Sofu a short onceover before he chuckled darkly and addressed Khan.
“Was that
the address you went to when you played bat out of hell on us earlier?” The
demon lord shrugged and hummed an agreement into his tea mug.
Leon
snorted. “I take it that I do not have to worry about him then, thought as
much. If you implied with your question before that I should now rave about his
loss than you are sorely mistaken here, Sofu! That man was simply bad news. I
could tell you things about that Mafiosi that would have stopped even you to
sell him one of your critters in the past.”
At the word
critters, Leon was growled at from three sides and glared at from Sofu, what he
impudently ignored altogether.
“Never
mind, you think I should at least put up a token of anger, yeah?” This time all
fife on the table snorted with Leon together at his cheeky words. Sofu shook
his head softly. “I thin its best we let that thematic fall again. Or, knowing
you, you will go and do something even worse as just that. You… you have grown,
Leon san.”
The aforementioned
gave Sofu D a short look. “Naah, not really, I have just had enough time in the
force to learn some important lections. One of the hardest is to learn to
accept it, that some of the real baddis will always slip through your fingers.
After have to see that happen for the x’th time, you learn fast that you are a
closed asshole for wishing them to die.” He took a last sip of his tea and put
the pot down.
Across of Leon
Sofu nodded shortly at his words before he did the same slowly.
“I
apologize for intruding into your home this night, Leon san. I was curios, as
you would say?” At Leon’s nod, he went on. “However, I should not have done so,
I am sorry.” The man waved it off. “Just make sure to tell me you are here the
next time, Sofu. I know very well that trying to keep you two out is doomed
from the start but please, no more sneaking around, aright?” The Kami nodded
slowly. Completely befuddled from the calm Leon he witnessed.
Finally,
standing the count excused himself before the form blurred and he left the
kitchen and flat in his animal form.
Leon arched
a brow at that and finally shrugged after a while.
“And he
asks why I call him the bat bunny from hell.” He murmured softly while putting
the now empty tea mugs into the sink. Then Leon waved a vague good night
tiredly at the still sitting group at his kitchen table before he too vanished
into his bed. Three inhuman gazes looked at each other before the three beasts
too put their cups away.
Tetsu went straight into Chris room. There, he
went to the windowsill to look out onto the night streets below with intend
eyes. The entire day and night so far too had left him thoughtful and a bit
clueless when it came to Leon. The man had not really changed, he had just
grown up and it showed in more ways then one.
He wondered
if that was because of Daiyu?
Tetsu
almost bet his horns on it that she had done a great deal in maturing Leon up.
Nevertheless, D had also done some real damage to the cop to turn him out in
the end, as he was now Tetsu realized. His softly muttered curse luckily did
not wake Chris up. Staring at the many books about antiques and history told
Tetsu again, of what the teenager wanted to study when finished with school. He
softly walked over to the teenager in the bed.
Looking
down onto the youth with something akin of hunger the Tao Tie crouched down.
Chris was
between a child and a young man, right on the edge of the turn. Just sixteen
something. He would not stay that for much longer, Tetsu got that too. A clawed
hand caressed the blond head lovingly before he let his human form fall away to
become his true self again. He hopped lightly onto the small bed and settled
under softly murmured protests, carefully beside Chris to snooze off too.
Lulled into
his sleep by the badly missed scent of Christopher.
Inside of
his own bed, Leon lay with his arms under his head and stared up at his ceiling
with unseeing eyes.
This visit of
D’s granddad had given Leon a pause. It brought it back to his awareness how
much he missed his D and how fucked he was. All denying would do him no good in
the very end when it came down to his desires. Suppressed as they were. With a curse,
he rubbed his bloodshot eyes. He was darn tired and only three more hours of
sleep to get. Leon turned a few times before he finally found some relieve and
slipped into a fitful rest.
In the meanwhile,
D listened to his Grandfathers tale of what had occurred and tried his hardest
not to gap at Sofu.
Honestly!
He should go, find, and pester his own human and not his Leon, D shook his
head. Inwardly he had to laugh at the told quandary of his grandfather. In a way,
he could not really blame him. Leon had always been extraordinary in his eyes.
About time, the younger of the two Kami did realize that too for a change.
When Sofu
was gone, D mused a while about the heard and finally rose to make the food for
the nocturnal animals of the shop ready.
He had no
doubt on it that Tetsu had already scent marked Chris as his territory to the
world. It was the sole purpose of the Totetsu for visiting him alone so fast. D
had realized that early on, as had Ten who had commented on it when the two of
them had talked alone about his vanishing from the shop. He too had remarked to
leave Tetsu be and do what he wanted for now. In a way, Chris had always been
the beasts chosen, D knew as much.
Just as
Leon had always his favorite.
It was
about time to visit his detective or rather now, captain in the near future D
thought while he went on his tasks with a hum. To remind Leon that he had not
forgotten about him and that he was not willing to let him off the hook so
easily. If he did not know that by now, that was. D had the certain suspicion
that his Lion did know that very well.
This time
he laughed almost giddily. What had the animals around him grin in return.
If Leon was
too stubborn to come here of his own, then he would go and get him, D decided.
Running time was over and done with and D wasn’t willing to let Leon slip away
a second time so he could do something stupid again or get killed. He left the
birds room to enter shortly after the room of the Piranha in the shop. Inside
the big tank, that was build into the bottom of the room swam a lot of that
breed of fish around. Busily munching away on the leftovers of several human
bodies that loosely drifted inside the colored water. All under the eyes of
Honlon who watched them coolly. To D and her, the piranha looked like young men
and women with sharp rows of teeth and long claws on their hands.
He watched
them for a short while calmly with her together before he turned and went out
again.
Behind him,
the appalling feast went on without a delay. The humans had intruded the shop in
search for their caretaker. Having heard that D knew something about their role
in the mass attack on Leon and Jill’s coworkers. The man and his group that had
come here to harm their Kami was the boss of a mobster ring that Leon had
almost taken out entirely in the past. Now he and the others had all become fish
food.
Humming D
went on with his usual tasks. Some names less on his list of humans to punish
for harming his Leon, he thought amused to himself, while he did.
