He looked at her with a Troubled mind while the girl Shakingly kneeled to the ground after her futile Attempt at Murdering someone
"Ah shit...this is messed up" He spoke , This is something he hasnt thinked about while living in the backstreets for a while.
A Sharp cold eyes from him was glaring at the girl , observing her and assessing the Dangers that could appear
Truthfully, theres none.
After thinking for a while his legs began to Kneeled into the ground before asking some questions
"whats your name."
"Hae-un"
"whats your job?"
"I-I run a Errand Work for the Kurokumo clan..."
Errand work huh? Well for things like that i don't think it'll count as one.
"why did you attack me?"
"i thought if i Could kill you i could get to somewhere better beacuse it means i eliminated the threat."
Understandable beacuse its the city we live in after all , evreyone dies too quickly and evreyone live cruelly.
But this is too much , shes just a girl. A underaged one at that , her body is too frail and weak to be surviving this long at the city.
He Began to let out a sigh before Raising his hands above her head
She flinched and shivered for a while beacuse the Shadow of my hand
would overwhelm her with fear
*Pat*
Her body froze , it wasnt something she had expected , the warmth coming from the palm of his hands Made her slightly comfortable
"Hae-un isn't it? You Impressed me , you should get some rest now." He exclaimed.
She doesnt know why , but those words of comfort would make a unfamilliar sense of emotions swelling up.
Before long she had closed her eyes and fell asleep , he looked at her with pity.
The eyebags was darkened and it seems like she could barely hold on together from being exhausted for too long
Those Kurokumo syndicates probably abused her by doing some gruesome work..
I gritted my teeth in anger , i cant believe they've done this far to a child.
But im not gonna do anything to them..yet.
They're still a part of the thumb and Slaughtering them would mean that i'll certainly face...Him
Just thinking about the sword Revving up and shooting flames out of its Blade is making me shiver...
I began to lift her up before putting her entire body to both of my arms , grasping her entire body as i carefully walked away from the corpse covered Streets
----------------
In a certain room she woke up from her Sleeping state , her body began to Tremble while quickly shooting her body straight up from the bed
She didn't know what happened after she went unconscious but her mind began to race into the negative side.
*Tap , tap*
Footsteps began to echo outside the room , slowly getting closer and closer which Made her agitated.
*Creeakk!*
As the door opened i noticed her Hiding In the blankets trembling in fear from potential danger
I didn't really expected her to do that but beacuse of it i felt a pain in my chest seeing her , a child , Unable to do nothing but cower in fear
After all....
*SMACK!*
"You brat! , I didn't teach you to be fighting People in school!"
The sound of a hand Slapping Echoed through the Living room with my left cheek Visibly Bruised from the slap
Infront of me was my father , a rotten scumbag Who Kept yelling at me evreytime and Always Beat me up.
Back when i was still a teen , i had nothing but The computer so i can escape reality.
My School life was shitty too , My grades are always at the lowest and other students Kept avoiding me because i was called out as weird
This lonelyness didn't bother me that much , after all , My only Light is the Dimly lit Computer screen where i can see new worlds and be as myself.
Enough Flashback , Nows not the time..
For a moment I had to breathe a sigh before Slowly Closing the door and Let her Be alone
A child living in this type of Environment needs to be properly given some space to process the whole scenario nice and slow.
*Clack!*
The door closed , Leaving Only darkness in the room.
The blanket rustled before a head popped out from it and checking for immediate danger
Soon as she confirmed there was none she let out a sigh of relieve before eventually Fully revealing herself from it
Hae-un began to take a deep breath before noticing 2 things ontop of the drawer that is a bowl of porridge and glass of water
Surviving was already hard but sustaining oneself be alive is really hard , and so without hesitation She Lunged towards the Bowl and starts feasting on it like a kitten that hasnt eaten food for days
She didn't care if theres poison or not , once she sees food her hunger kicked in.
Meanwhile outside the room , i Happily smiled as i Heard the noise of her eating loudly behind the door
I kill only those that had embraced the city fully but never innocent lives that clinged to humanity more than the city itself
Thats what i've learn in the city , Both when i became a rat and after i became...this
I had to Learn how to Kill quickly but thankfully due to the memories i've received from the ID i gained a sense of nothingness when Staring at a dead corpse or Murdering someone
But even with that i still had that sense of Oddness and slightly nausea for whatever reason.
After a while i was sleeping in the couch since theres only one bedroom and in that moment the door slowly opened with hae-un trying to sneakily get out of the bedroom and look at the Place with caution
Step by step she Tip-toed around the floor until she noticed the exit from this place
Her eyes Lit up and hastily walked to it trying to escape from my place
*Woosh!*
Her Body was suddenly lifted up in the air so quickly that she didn't noticed it for a moment before processing the sudden view slowly being taller and taller
"you're not escaping from here missy" i Gently said , I didn't expect her to leave considering most childrens would probably stay where they are like the usual
But i guess shes a brave one ready to Leave beacuse she doesnt know me , but im afraid that Courage wont last long beacuse..
*Sniff sniff....*
Droplets of tear rising from her eyes before a Stream of tears start flowing intensely
But strangely she didn't Scream nor cry outloud , only frustration and a outburst of Silenced emotion by doing a simple act of crying
Noticing this , I put of my hands onto her head and patting her while i let her tug my clothes and sobbing Quietly
At this point i don't think i could go back doing dangerous work.
