Neko didn't make a sound as she was pulled from her spot on the cement, her head bent forward like she was a rag doll. She looked up quietly at her captor as they ran and held onto her wrist and frowned slightly. It was a man, not too built, with a blindfold and average teenager clothes consisting of jeans and a plain T-shirt.
"Don't scream little girl," the man said. His voice wasn't deep or manly, but feminine. Neko blinked in confusion. The "man" continued to run, keeping a grip on Neko, and then turned around with a hand on their blindfold. They pulled down the cloth to reveal a clear blue eye that matched the short and navy hair that stopped above them. Her other eye, the right eye, was covered by an eye patch.
"My name is Ash Ravencroft. Your name is Neko I assume?" Neko nodded, "Good. I have news that you need to be aware of. The demons are on the move!" Neko stared blankly as she was pulled through the alley. She had no idea what this person was talking about. She was not aware of her birthright apparently. "And you, Neko, happen to be their gateway to this world!" Neko's eyes stayed wide, like she was a newborn child just seeing the world.
As the two ran through the alley, a sinister presence crept up on them. Ash finally noticed it, her eye widening as she whipped around and forced Neko behind her in a protective stance.
"Show yourself!" she demanded, glaring upward. On top of a building, a bulky figure stood with the sun shining behind him. He when a cloud passed, the person's features were clearer. He had dark skin, pointed ears, and a dark gray muscle shirt with black khakis. He was barefoot, and had stitch-like scars on the top of his head near his black mohawk, on his right cheek, right shoulder, and left forearm. His sharp teeth and completely black eyes were a dead give away that he was not human, but a demon. He smirked, showing his fangs and arching his thick eyebrows, and snickered loudly. He meant harm. His appearance made Ash sweat as he spoke finally.
"My name isn't important Protector Ash!" called the built demon, smirking still, "I only wanna wake up the brat behind you!" Neko frowned, finally showing emotion. She scooted closer to Ash, not understanding his intentions.
"You will not touch this girl!" Ash declared, stretching her arms to show she would do anything to keep Neko safe. The demon smirked.
"But she looks so cute, just one touch?" he teased. Neko glared at him, and crossed her arms. Ash also glared at him; sweat dripping down her chin slowly. The demons eyes arched as he flashed a fanged grin.
"Are ya afraid of me human?" he asked, looking down on the two women. Ash growled quietly, tightening her hands into fists. "Ya should be." He leapt off the wall and landed a few feet in front of them. His hand balled as he held it out towards Neko and Ash, and then three spikes shot out of forearm. Then his fists began to glow a deep red. Ash took a step back nervously, pushing Neko further from the enemy.
"I am not afraid. My job is to risk my life for the Selected, no matter whom or what I have to fight," Ash declared. The demon smirked.
"My name is Yevon. I want you to know what name to scream as you die." Ash flushed angrily, throwing daggers at him from her eyes.
"The only one to die today is you," she vowed. Yevon laughed, sending shivers down Nekos spine.
"Well see," he derided, disappearing. Ash tensed and gripped Nekos wrist so she could move her when needed. There was a sharp feeling on her cheek, followed by a warm liquid dripping down and off her chin. She turned, covering her newly cut cheek with her extra hand. Yevon had disappeared again, having left his mark already.
"Ya better protect the girl better!" drifted Yevons voice. Ash felt Nekos wrist get ripped from her grasp, and twisted to see Neko had been caught; being held with an arm around her waist and a hand keeping her face towards Yevons. He was smirked, keeping his lips inches from Nekos.
"Let her go!" Ash demanded. Yevon didnt even shift his eyes in her direction, but he spoke to her.
"As ya know, there are two ways to awaken a Selected," he said, followed by an explanation, "Ya can either make them bleed or, my personal favorite, take their virginity."
"I know the methods! Now unhand her!!"
Neko looked confused, having no idea what this demon was doing. She didnt know about sexual intercourse or even bleeding. She had never even seen blood before!
Anyway, Ash charged Yevon, quickly and skillfully rescuing Neko and socking Yevon in the face. He stumbled from the blow, hurriedly regaining his balance. Neko tripped herself, Ash holding her up by the arm.
"Youre getting really annoying, wench," Yevon growled, showing off his sharp teeth. Ash smirked, but then her eyes widened. The demon was approaching at full speed, so she had only one choice: push Neko out of the way and take the hit.
"Those girls are annoying, dont ya agree?" Eric Davis said, walking ahead of the other three boys. The two brothers in the back ignored him, but James agreed with a silent nod.
"Their squeals have me a headache" he grumbled. Eric sighed, slowing his pace to walk next to Akita and Shinju. He placed his elbow on the younger brothers shoulder (Akita) and leaned on him as they walked.
"Did you see any cute girls?" Eric asked. Akita looked over, his eyes half closed in a bored expression. Shinju leaned over and flicked his arm off Akitas shoulder.
"You know better, brat," he said, glowering. Eric rolled his eyes. Everyone who knew the Yuki brothers knew they were bi and had no issue with incest... seeing as how they were basically "going out."
"Hey," came James voice, louder than usual with a surprised tone, "does anyone feel that?" The three others looked ahead at him, raising their eyebrows.
"What is it?" Akita asked.
"I dont know I was probably just imagining it" Erics reply was quiet and a little pathetic sounding.
"Youre crazy, James!" Eric teased with a toothy grin bright enough to signal a satellite from outer space. James ignored him, like he did everyone else as he ran to the source of his feeling, an alleyway just ahead.
"W-wait up!" Akita called, taking off after James. Eric followed too, leaving Shinju to shuffle his feet after them.
