Sakito was walking inside the bakery, looking for something different to eat. He was already clad in his pajamas and yawning quite a bit. That was when rain started to pour down with no mercy, a strong wind following. "Damn...I hate this kind of weather." He walked to the glass doors, taking a better look outside. When he was about to retreat, a bright red umbrella hit the glass, making him scream, heart falling a beat. He cursed, until he realized something... Sana woke with a start and moved downstairs to answer the door. What was this all about? He opened the door and saw a soaking wet Sakito on the other side. He frowned slightly and motioned for Sakito to come in, he could see that something was wrong. Sakito was shaking, holding the closed umbrella close to his chest. "I-i-i-is Shou here? Please?" "He's still upstairs in his room." Sana said, frowning. "Why do you ask?" As soon Sana finished the sentence, he ran upstairs, already crying and sobbing. He knew what he would find, but a tiny hope still lived on his chest. Banging the door for Shou's room open, he found nothing, just the open window, rain soaking the floor. He fell to his knees, his sobbing getting worse, almost suffocating. He was hysterical. "I-I-I-I-I'm s-sorry! Ple-please!! I knew something was wrong!" Sana ran upstairs after Sakito and saw the open window, his heart stopping for a second. Oh no. Sana looked down at Sakito, figuring he was the reason why Shou snuck out. "It's all your fault!" Sana yelled, kicking Sakito's side. "He would've been fine if you just left him alone! That's what I've been saying all along!" Sakito cried out, falling and holding his torso, almost sure he had a broken rib. This knocked Hitsugi out of his shock, making him push his brother away from Sakito. "Sana! be reasonable! It's not his fault! And we don't even know what happened yet! So shut up and let's go looking for him!" Rose turned around and ran to his room, grabbing his cell phone and doing what he though they should do before anything. "Come on Mom, pick up..." Kang walked back to Shou's room, assisting Sakito to sit up and then walking to the kitchen to fetch him some ice. Sana sighed and went downstairs to pace and worry over Shou while they waited for an answer from their parents. Satsuki picked up the phone after a few rings, answering with a tired voice. Hitsugi changed into some thick clothes and walked past Sana, slapping his arm. "Come on, let's look for him at least." He walked out on the pouring rain, turning his flashlight on and walking down the stairs. It was almost useless, since the light didn't penetrate the darkness and his shouts were barely heard over the rain. "Mom?...It's Rose. Something happened..." He paced in his room, thinking about the best way to tell them. "What happened?" Satsuki asked, worry making its way into his voice. Rose crouched on the ground, pushing his hair with his free hand and closing his eyes to keep the tears inside. "Shou is missing...." A sob made his way to his throat anyway, his desperation and actions just letting clear he was nothing but a child. "Missing?" Satsuki repeated, almost in disbelief. "What happened?" Kyo choose that time to woke up, looking at Satsuki. "What’s going on...?" Rose let out another sob and soon the tears fell, making the talk difficult. "He sneaked out to-to see Sakito and I think someone got h-him on his way back." He sat down, pulling stronger on his hair in a failed attempt to calm down. "Ok, we're coming home." Satsuki said. "I'll be right there, ok?" He hung up and turned to Kyo, looking about to cry as well. "Shou's missing..." Rose hung up, throwing his cell phone to the other side of the room and letting out a agonized cry. After that, he took a deep breath and stood up, deciding that he should calm down and actually do something. He checked on Sakito and Kang before going down the stairs to join his brothers. "Hey guys, they're coming home..." He said that walking directly to Sana, hugging his big brother and burrying his face in his neck, one residual sob leaving his mouth. He never hugged Sana, saying he was too much of a prick to receive one... But today was an exception. Sana actually returned the hug automatically, not caring that it was Rose he was hugging. "It was an angel, wasn't it?" He spoke, though he didn't care if he got an answer or not. Rose kept quiet, not knowing what to say. After a couple of minutes, Hitsugi was the one to break the silence. "Should we go to the station wait for them or just stay here? I fell kinda useless...." "We'll stay here. We don't need anyone else to go missing." Sana muttered, before sighing softly. Their parents needed to get home soon. Hitsugi just nodded, but Rose looked up, frowning. "But what if something attacks them too? They will need us!" "Fine, then all of us go together." Sana muttered, moving to the door. Rose nodded, going to change into thick clothes and a coat. Checking on Kang and Sakito again, he told them where they were going and walked to the living room. "Okay, let's go." Hitsugi gave one lantern to each and pulled the hood of his coat over his head. Once outside, he almost fell to the ground several times, the stone of the steps too slippery with the water that cascaded down the hill. "Let's fly guys..." "No, we can't afford letting anyone see us." Sana protested as he put an arm around Hitsugi to help steady him. He knew he had to be the responsible one now with their parents away. Hitsugi held his brother with a firm grip, extending a hand to Rose, who grasped it and walked close, throwing a steadying arm around the other demon's shoulders. "Okay, but I don't think anybody would see us anyway! Who's crazy enough to be out on this weather?" Sana sighed to himself, shaking his head. "Then fly." He muttered, as he walked ahead of the others. They didn't want to listen to him anyway. No one did, not even Shou. Hitsugi shook his head to himself and looked at his blonde brother, who just pouted. They decided to walk down the hill, obeying their brother for once. They fell a couple of times, but got there, even if covered in mud.
Kyo hugged Satsuki close while they waited for the train to arrive. He wanted to scream and tear his hair off, but he was keeping calm for the angel's sake. On the inside, however, he promised to himself that the creature who got his kid would suffer and die by his hands. Satsuki practically ran to the train when it arrived. He was panicking so much, wondering how they would get their baby back. Inside the train, Kyo was quiet, watching the blurry scenario outside. It was some time before he said something. "Do you...do you think they're after you?" "I'm sure that's what they originally intended." Satsuki said softly, leaning against Kyo. "I didn't tell you the complete truth before..." Kyo nuzzled the angel's neck, holding him close. His heart failed a beat at the Satsuki's words, suddenly afraid of what the other could have hidden from him. He gulped, but ran a soothing hand through his mate's hair anyway. "What is it...?" Satsuki snuggled close to Kyo before he spoke. "I was supposed to be mated to someone. An important angel, but I didn't like him. I think he'll use Shou for his benefit until I come back. He knows I have to if I ever want Shou to be free again." Kyo hugged Satsuki closer at the statement, kissing the angel's face with several times. "You're not going anywhere... We all would miss you too much. You didn't like him back then and I'm sure as hell you like him even less now. So... let's just kill him and get our child back, ok?" He sighed, asking any deity out there to listen to him and make it happen. Satsuki nodded, though he knew it wasn't that simple. "What if it causes a big war?" Kyo looked at Satsuki, eyes faintly glowing and a evil smirk on his lips. "Then we will have some major holy-ass-kicking to do..." He stood up, pulling Satsuki with him. "Come on love, we're here." Satsuki followed Kyo out, hoping that all Kyo's confidence would not be misplaced. They would have a lot of people against them. The instant their parents were out of the train, Rose ran to Satsuki, jumping and closing both arms and legs around him, just staying there, face hidden on the blonde's neck. He didn't care he was too old for that, right now he felt scared like a 3 year old. Hitsugi just stepped forward, closing a hand on Kyo's shirt and leaning against his side. Satsuki held Rose with a bit of difficulty, understanding that he needed the support right now. Sana moved over and hugged both Satsuki and Rose, finally letting free the tears that he was holding up inside. Kyo hugged his family, kissing everyone on the temple, sniffing a little himself. "Come on guys, let's go home and find a way to fix this mess...." Satsuki nodded and pried Rose's legs off him before he started walking with Sana and Rose. He turned his head to look at Sana, gently petting his hair. "Sana, I'm going to have to ask you a favor when we get home." Rose just looked up to his mother's face, curious about what he could ask of Sana that he couldn't ask to Hitsugi and himself. Once they were back home, Satsuki talked to Sana for a little bit before gathering with the rest of the family to talk things over about what happened to Shou. Sana reluctantly went to go say he was sorry to Sakito for how he reacted earlier. Kyo healed Sakito and invited him to the living room where everyone was, deciding to not wake up Kang. He sat down, smiling tenderly at the picture of Hitsugi and Rose leaning on Satsuki's sides, unconsciously grabbing a handful of their mother's shirt, looking like little kids again. "Can I talk to you for a minute?" Sana asked Sakito, trying to sound as nice as possible because he was sure Sakito was scared of him by now. Sana sighed and resisted the urge to smack Sakito. The guy had a right to know. He grabbed Sakito's arm and dragged him outside with him. "I'll show you." He muttered. Sakito struggled against the hand on his arm, but the other was simply too strong. He saw Rose standing up to follow them, Hitsugi right behind him. Once he was out, he hugged himself, shaking from the cold and from the fear that was running through his veins. Sana glared at Sakito. "I'm not gonna hurt you again, ok? Calm down. The only thing I care about right now is getting my brother back." He paused and then let his wings grow from his back. "Satsuki, our mother, is an angel. If you have a problem with that, you better make up your mind now because Shou needs us." Sakito's mind shut down when he saw the wings, alarms going off on his head. He turned around to run, but Rose was right in front of him. He whimpered, jumping away when the blonde unfolded his wings. The demon tried the last route, but Hitsugi was there, wings also unfolded. Sana moved over to Sakito, grabbing him and forcing him to look at them. "So tell me now...have you at all changed your mind about Shou?" Sana asked, feeling completely disgusted by Sakito. Mention the word angel and the demons immediately start freaking out. Sakito was still shaking, but nodded before looking at Sana, a snarl coming from his mouth. "I'm not giving him up. I don't care what you say or think of me. He's sweet and perfect... My problem is with you, who always seem to think of yourself, not caring if Shou is happy, only feeling satisfied if he is at your side. You're a selfish man! If you had let me in this evening, he would still be here!" Sana let go of Sakito, turning away. Sakito was right, he had been denying it, but...it was really all his own fault. Sana's wings disappeared into his back again as he sunk to the ground. He didn't deserve to see Shou ever again...but he knew Sakito did deserve Shou and they would make each other happy. He sighed and looked at Sakito again. "You're right. And I promise that if you help me get him back, I will stay out of your way..." Sakito just nodded, standing up and trying to get some of his dignity back. "What's your plan...?" Sana stood up as well, but he seemed to have less of an attitude now. "Actually, it was my mom's plan. I'm going to go with you when you go back to school. If the angels are gonna use Shou, they'll try to make him attack the council and we can probably catch Shou from there. If any resistance comes, the warriors at the school can take care of it." Sakito started chewing on a fingernail, looking around to all the family. "I'm supposed to go back just next week. We can't wait until there. And how am I going to explain you? And will you tell anyone? I mean, people will wonder..." "Don't worry, my parents supposedly know someone important there." Sana muttered with a little shrug.
Shou felt something cold hit his nose and he opened his eyes. He stared up at the sky, completely confused for a moment. Then it hit him....he could see the sky! He sat up quickly, taking a look around. He was in a place covered in snow. There were white snow covered buildings all around and iced over lakes and ponds and mountains. He’d heard about this kinda place, it was heaven. He was among angels right now. “It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” A voice asked beside Shou. Shou looked up and saw an angel beside him. He looked a bit scary, with blonde hair and strange markings around his eyes and a large sword hanging by his side. This must’ve been the guy that knocked him out, Shou concluded. “It’s because we gave you back your ability to see.” The angel knelt beside Shou and took a closer look at his face. “I’m Kirito. Your mother was supposed to be joined with me, not that filthy demon. You would’ve been an attractive kid if it weren’t for your demon blood.” Shou shifted away from Kirito, not liking him already. He wanted to go home. “Why am I here?” He asked finally. “You’re bait and well...you have powers that we can use to our advantage. Perhaps if you do us a favor, we can let you go and leave your family alone from now on.” Kirito said, standing up straight again and rest his hand on the hilt of his sword. Shou glanced at it nervously before nodding. “Just tell me what it is.” "Basically, we will bring you to the school down in hell and we'll use you to expose the whereabouts of your mother's hidden sibling. Since, I know he would've leave his mate to give me an heir." Kirito replied. Shou frowned to himself before he was roughly pulled up. "Come on, we'll fly to your temporary residence." Shou reluctantly let his wings grow out of his back, wincing when Kirito made a small disgusted sound. "It's grey...like dirty snow." He muttered, lifting into the air while holding onto a chain that was connected to Shou to keep him from escaping. Shou had no choice but to follow, flying after the angel.
Sakito jumped from the bus, chattering away with Rose. They were all worried, but one week after the incident, they were already able to talk about something else. At the first two days they weren't even able to talk at all, so that was a progress. They walked until they reached a house with a white fence, Sakito grabbing his keys and unlocking the gate. Nobody was at the garden, the house quiet... His brothers have probably already left for school. He walked into the leaving room and took a deep breath before shouting. "Daaad! Moom! I'm home, we need to talk!" Aoi greeted Sakito first, going to hug their first son. "So good to see you home, Sakito." He then glanced at the three other people behind Sakito with a questioning look. "Um, may I ask who your friends are?" Sakito looked at them, before grabbing his father by the shoulder and sitting him down. "Mom! Come here, I need to talk to you." Uruha ran down the stairs, fresh from the shower and hugged his son before noticing the other kids, in a very similar fashion to Aoi. "Sit down, mom..." When they were both sitting and looking at him expectantly, he decided to not dance around the subject. "Do you remember Kyo, who was out with an angel? Well, this are three of their kids...." Aoi nodded, remembering the day when Kyo and the angel went off into the mountains. "But what are they doing here?" He asked. "An angel took our brother." Sana answered, frowning a bit. Sakito's father hadn't seemed at all surprised. Uruha nodded, looking at the three of them, impressed."You all look like fine demons to me now... Last time I saw you, your mother could carry two of you in his arms... I'm sure you're all very gifted too. We will get your brother back..." Sana actually smiled at them, already liking Sakito's parents. They seemed nice and they weren't bothered by the angel thing at all. "Thank you." Uruha smiled at them, before standing. "Come on, all of you, my little demons. You need a good breakfast before going to school." He grabbed three more plates, arranging them around the big table. "When you get there, I suggest you go talk directly with Saga. He's influential and will now what to do..." Sakito nodded, sitting on his place and motioning for all of them to do the same. "I'll lead you guys to him on the break. Until them I'm afraid you'll have to walk around the school grounds..." "That'll be fine for me." Sana said. "I need to check out the warriors anyway." "Looking for a mate?" Aoi asked. Sana shook his head, snorting softly. "Like that matters when my brother is in trouble. I'm going to look for some demons to help us." Uruha sat at his place beside Aoi, sipping at his coffee. "Check them, go watch whatever you want... But don't spread the panic. Wait for Saga first. He can organize this better." Rose made a face for Sana, elbowing his brother on the ribs to keep him from arguing. "Listen to him, brother. We live secluded... He know's what's better." Hitsugi stretched his arm behind Rose's back and punched the same place the other had hit. "Don't be an ass, we will still follow mom's orders, okay? They can very well just decide to kill us and study our bodies if we just go there and reveal all." He was afraid of how this plan would end, really afraid of not being accepted. He had never been between so many strangers before and that made him feel cautious. "It's not like we're aliens." Sana said, rolling his eyes and moving to leave. "Thanks for your kindness." He said to Aoi and Uruha just before slipping out the door. He wanted to get started as soon as possible. Hitsugi stood, going after his brother. He got Sana before he reached the door and grabbing both of his shoulders, threw him at the sofa. "No, you will wait. I'm tired of you doing just what you think is right. You're risking your family's life here, not just yours! We're not aliens but we're not normal! Unless you haven't noticed, I dream about the future, Rose can move things just by looking at it and Shou can produce ice! Ice! Just like any angel! So just shut up, sit down and wait!" Rose poked his cereal, not looking at his brothers. Instead, he made a embarrassed face, looking at Aoi. "Sorry about that..." Aoi smiled a bit awkwardly and shrugged his shoulders. "You don't have to apologize." Sana stared at Hitsugi before sighing and standing up once more. "You all assume I'm going to do something irrational that will get us all killed." Hitsugi had enough. With one swift move, he punched his brother right at the jaw. When he talked again, he was furious. "Sit.fucking.down.and.wait.damnit! You brought this on yourself with your terrible mood! Nobody can stand you! Shou can't stand you! So shut up and wait until we're ready to go!" Sana touched his cheek and looked at the floor, completely speechless for once. Those words really stung. He bit his lip and ran out the door, not caring if Hitsugi was pissed at him. He wasn't going to do anything stupid, he just needed to be away from his brothers. He sat down just outside the house, curling up and crying. Aoi coughed slightly and looked at the remaining people. "Pancakes, anyone?" Sakito finished eating, and they all got up to leave, but stopped at the door. Rose sighed, turning the door knob. "I'll talk to him, you all wait a second..." Outside Rose sat on the steps beside his brother, throwing an arm over his shoulders and dropping a little kiss at his cheek. "Don't be like that... Hitsugi was harsh... we all love you, you know that..." He ran a hand through the black hair, enjoying the silky feeling. Sana shook his head, leaning against Rose a little bit and quickly wiping his tears. "No, he was right. I do nothing but cause everyone trouble and I thought that...at least if I save Shou I can do something worthwhile. But I'm even the reason why he's not here. I tried to keep him from being happy...I wouldn't blame him if he hated me." Rose kissed his brother's head lightly, hugging him close. "Don't worry about it. We can fight, but we all love you. So don't even think about Shou hating you because that's not possible." He got up, pulling on Sana's hand. "Now come on, enough with it. We have to go." Sana nodded and stood up, following Rose. He had no other choice but to suck it up and be strong. As soon as they talked to this Saga guy, then he could finally do something to help. Sakito lead the way, trying to not look at Sana's direction. The guy still scared the shit out of him. When they reached the school, a lot of demons were there, greeting each other and chatting. Sakito just smiled and ran in the crowd, hugging some of his friends. When the bell rang, he looked at the brothers with an embarrassed smile. "Sorry about that, I got carried away. Anyway, you will have to wait until break, Saga is gonna be teaching on the first period. You can walk around, make some friends, maybe? Or just sit by the arena and watch the warriors...I have to go." He waved and followed his friends inside. Sana sighed to himself and decided to go outside to wait. There was nothing to inside anyway. He didn't care if his brothers followed him or not. He found a few benches by the warriors' training field and he watched them, rolling his eyes as some of the guys looked over at him and made a few comments. Hitusgi decided to visit the library, but Rose followed Sana. He sat beside his brother, being quickly surrounded by a couple of demons trying their luck. He just shook his head, saying he was already mated. But one of the demons at the field was not interested at all in the blonde beauty... All his attention was on the sulking brunette sitting on the bench. Aki grabbed his sword, taking a deep breath. He was next to duel and now he had a motive to impress. Sana sighed and rest his head against Rose's shoulder, still feeling a bit down. He glared at anyone that approached either of them. His eyes settled on one of the demons though that was still training with a sword. Something about him seemed...interesting. Rose took his phone out and called Kang, chatting away, one arm threw over his brother's shoulders. Aki groaned when he saw the interaction between the demons on the bench, disappointed. But he tried to impress anyway, noticing the way the brunette was watching him. He emerged victorious from the duel, smiling and helping the other warrior up. Sitting beside his friends, he looked at the mysterious demon, smirking maliciously. If he got a reaction, maybe he had a chance? Sana watched with a neutral expression, but inside he was a bit impressed. Maybe after a real test, he would be able to see if this demon was worth using to help them get Shou back. He stood and walked over, picking up a stray sword and pointing it at Aki. "Do you think you're that impressive?" Aki blinked, looking from the point of the sword suddenly near his face, to the long lines of the demon's neck and finally, to his face. It was not possible. It had to be a joke! Had he really mistaken a warrior for a breeder? Frowning, he took his sword, getting up and licking his lips in the most obscene way he could. Okay, if he wanted a challenge, he would have one."I have no idea what you're talking about, newbie..." Sana smirked back at him and ran his sword down Aki's chest, not putting any pressure to cut him though. These were just practice swords anyway. They weren't meant for killing. "You'd be surprised." Rose watched everything from the bench, smirking at the obvious flirting between his brother and the handsome demon. Finally Sana had taken interest on someone, even if they flirted with pointy dangerous things in their hands. Aki smirked back, motioning for the arena. "Let's duel. If I win, you will go on a date with me. If you do, I'll do whatever you want." Perfect, that idea was absolutely perfect. Sana nodded and moved to the arena, looking a bit bored as he did so. He was totally confident that he would win this. Aki attacked first, smirking all the time, almost impressed by the fluid movements of the brunette. "So, do you have a name?" Sana easily dodged Aki's attacks and blocked each blow of the sword before kicking Aki in the stomach and knocking him over. He sat down on Aki's hips and leaned over to whisper in the other's ear. "Sana." He smirked once more as dropped his own sword and pinned both of Aki's hands down as well. Aki blinked a few times, not really sure of how he had gone from fighting to being on the ground. After a few seconds he recovered and looked on the other's eyes. "Sana, hm? I'm Aki, nice to meet you." He ignored the catcalls and whistles of his friends, focusing on trying release his hands. "Guess I was wrong, hm? You're no breeder at all..." Sana stood up and held a hand out to Aki, shaking his head. "I wouldn't know." Aki took the offered hand and didn't let go, walking with Sana to the garden, away from his teasing friends. He frowned at the other's words, trying to make any sense of them. "What do you mean, how could you not know?" "I never planned on finding a mate, so it never mattered." Sana replied, shrugging slightly. Aki sat on the grass, pulling Sana to sit beside him. "So you had never been at school? And why don't you want a mate anyway? People say it is a great feeling." He laid down on his side, using a hand to support his head and playing with his lip piercings, easing it in and out of the hole with his tongue. Sana looked down at the ground, knowing very well that he couldn't tell Aki every reason for that yet. "I have a difficult temper." He finally settled on saying. Aki tried to hide his smirk, but end up laughing out aloud instead. "Well! I noticed that! So what? It just adds to the challenge!" He stretched his arm and ran a hand very lightly from Sana's hip to his knee. "I think it's sexy..." Sana eyed the hand, but somehow he didn't mind so much. Actually, he kinda liked it. He pushed Aki onto his back again and settled on top of him, not in a particularly dominant style though. He just rest against Aki and pressed a kiss to the other's neck. "You're strange." Aki wound his arms around Sana's waist, leaning his head back to give the other more room. "Look who's talking. You're the weirdest guy I have ever meet." He smirked at the brunette, easing his hands under his shirt. "And I still like it." "You seem to have wandering hands." Sana commented, a bit amused. He shivered at feeling of the other's hands on his skin though, enjoying it so much. "Oh well, it's one of my problems..." He smirked, attacking Sana's neck with very forward open mouthed kisses. After a couple of minutes, he laid his head down on the grass again, licking his lips. "That was another of my little problems... Should I try to control it?" Sana groaned softly and shook his head, moving his own lips down to meet Aki's. "Not at all." He replied, sucking on Aki's bottom lip and tracing his tongue over the piercings. "Good..." He moved his lips against Sana's, tracing his own tongue along the other's lips, asking for entrance. He was thrilled, this felt natural and sinfully good. Finding a mate was really the greatest feeling ever. Sana parted his lips, letting Aki's tongue have entrance while he shifted on top of Aki, trying to press closer. Aki grunted, turning them around so he would be on top. He adjusted the position until he was comfortably laying on top of Sana, one hand intertwined with his and his head at the perfect angle to ravish the delicious mouth. Rose turned the corner he saw his brother going, speaking with Satsuki over the phone. "Brother! Mom want's to speak with yo---" He stopped dead on his tracks at what he saw, but once the shock passed, he giggled. "Mom, you won't believe what I've just found!" He was sure to talk loud enough for Sana to hear. Sana slid one of his legs around Aki's waist, pulling their hips together suggestively. The moment he heard Rose's voice though, he quickly pushed Aki away and tried to appear like he hadn't just been making out with a demon he just met. "What did you just find, Rose?" Satsuki asked as he worked on making lunch for himself and Kyo one handedly. Aki groaned, crossing his hands over his lap to hide the consequence of Sana's move. So that was the little brother, hm? Rose smirked, still giggling. "Maybe Sana would like to tell you, mom, wait a sec." He handed the phone to his brother and skipped back to the arena, laughing to himself. Sana glared after his brother and sighed as he held the phone to his ear. "Rose saw nothing. We're all fine. We're meeting with Saga later on. Love you." He then hung up and dropped Rose's phone on the ground before turning to Aki. "Want to find somewhere more comfortable?" Satsuki stared at the phone at the sudden end of the call and raised an eyebrow. Sana had sounded embarrassed. Suspicious. Aki laughed, nodding. "Yeah, I'll show you the dorms, come on." He got up, pulling Sana with him. "But shouldn't you call your mom? He's probably worried now." They walked through a maze of corridors, most of people still at class. He pointed at one of the rooms that had the door open, a blonde lecturing to his students. "That's my mom by the way... I can't bother him now, but I would like you to meet him." Sana nodded slightly and squeezed Aki's hand as they walked. "My mom will be fine. He's got two other sons he can talk to besides me." Aki frowned, hugging Sana closer at the tinge of sadness on his voice. "Other two? Is there one I haven't meet here too? And why you're here anyway? Are you all moving from your old town and coming to live here?" They reached the door and Aki opened it, inviting Sana into his room. "Um, I guess you could say that." Sana replied, walking into the room. "This is the only way we could help out our family." He sat down on the bed, hoping that Aki would get off that subject. But Aki was clueless, not really seeing any reason to stop talking. "Oh? What's the problem?" He kept his voice casual, but used on hand to push the demon down on the mattress, crawling on top of him and resuming his work on the pale neck. Sana groaned again and figured he could avoid that question by distracting Aki. He slid one of his legs between the other's and rubbed his thigh up against the demon's crotch. Aki moaned, using his hips to rub the other's crotch back, building a slow and constant rhythm between them, his mouth seeking Sana's once again and forgetting all about the questions he wanted to ask. Sana smiled slightly as his plan worked. He kissed back eagerly, once again, sliding his leg around Aki's waist. At least now they wouldn't be interrupted. Aki eased his hands under the other's shirt once again, trying his best to not part the kiss. He teased a nipple, leaning down to lick it quickly before resuming the kissing once again. Sana arched up against Aki, scratching his nails lightly down the other's back. Now he could see what the big fuss was about having a mate. It felt so good to be in someone's arms and to be shown attention like this. Aki disposed of both of their shirts before making his way down, laying light kisses all over that pale skin, ignoring the ringing bell that told everyone it was break time... Nobody came to the dorms at the break anyway. Sana moved his hands into Aki's hair, little moans leaving his lips almost continually now. The door banged open a second later though and a short demon walked in, humming to himself and totally not seeing the couple on the bed. He picked up a bag before walking back out and shutting the door. That was Aki's room mate, Yomi. Aki didn't even look up at Yomi, knowing that the short demon would not speak at all... He probably even did a bad impression of not noticing them. So he worried more about licking sensual stripes along the lines of Sana's pants, tugging at the jewel on his bellybutton. Hitsugi sighed, he had asked everyone... Sana was soooo dead. When some people moved, he noticed a really short demon and walked to him, getting a weird need to make sure his hair was ok and clothes were in place. "Hey, excuse me... Have you seen a tall brunette with black pants, combat boots, short shirt and several bellybutton's piercings?" Yomi looked at the stranger talking to him and he nodded, grinning and motioning back towards his room. "Yeah, only I saw him without the shirt. He's probably missing his pants by now." Hitsugi just looked at him wide eyes, his voice failing him several times before leaving his mouth very loudly. "WHAT?" He turned the knob and stepped into the room, a shocked yell following in a few seconds. "OH FUCK! I'm sorry!" He turned around, his face beet red, but couldn't get out of the room. They had to go! What now? Yomi smirked slightly, having gone in with Hitsugi. "Aki, this guy was looking for the guy that you've got your tongue all over." Sana blushed brightly as they were interrupted once more, this time by his other brother. He hid his face, wishing to disappear. Aki blushed too, grabbing the closer pillow and throwing it at Yomi. "Shut up, shortie! And you, other shortie, what do you want anyway?" With on quick movement, he had taken the sheets off of Yomi's bed and was covering Sana's body with it. Hitsugi bit his lip, absolutely embarrassed. It was like walking in on his parents, only ten times worst! Sana was not supposed to be doing any of this, he always said he wouldn't. He tried to focus on why he was there, on forming the words to explain the outburst. "Saga...I mean, Shou! Please Sana..." Sana sighed to himself and nodded, pulling his hands away from his face. "I'll be there in a minute, Hitsugi. Just get out." Hitsugi wasn't about to complain, leaving the room in a second and taking Yomi with him. He waited outside the room nervously, worrying his lips almost to the point of drawing blood. He looked around, trying to calm himself, but the only thing in front of his eyes was the short demon. "So...I'm Hitsugi, nice to meet you." Aki frowned, laying down half on top of Sana so he wouldn't move. "Stay here... Do you know him? Is whatever you gonna do really that important, hmm?" He pouted, kissing the brunette all over the face. "Yomi." The little demon answered, smiling and poking Hitsugi's side. "What's got you all nervous?" "I have to..." Sana said softly, trying to squirm away from Aki. Finding Shou was still his top priority. Hitsugi tried to smile, but ended up looking nervous anyway. He pointed to the closed door, blushing. "T-that was my brother and... some guy. I didn't expected it at all. I'm sorry, but we just got here." Yomi nodded and pat Hitsugi on the back. "Ah, sorry. I should've warned you." Sana sighed as he collected his clothes and started putting them back on. "Hitsugi's one of my brothers. Another one of my brothers, Shou, was kidnaped and we've been trying to track him down. That's what this is about." Hitsugi, just nodded, blushing a little more. He was so cute... A little weird, but so damn cute. To bad he was probably a breeder and he tough of himself as mostly one too so...no way. He already had too many problems without a crush on a breeder. Aki raised both of his eyebrows, his mouth forming a little "o". "You could have told me. I'm sorry. Do you need help to find your brother? Was it angels?" "What was so important anyway?" Yomi asked, curiosity getting a hold of him. Sana nodded and sat on the bed again, giving Aki a little kiss. "Yes, we suspect it was. I'll try to get back soon, ok?" "Hm... we're...we're supposed to meet someone today." He suddenly remembered something and got his cellphone, calling both Sakito and Rose, letting them know he had found Sana. They agreed on a place to meet and he hung up. He looked at the big curious eyes boring into him and tried to change the subject. "So... do you have a mate yet? I bet warriors are crazy about you." Aki nodded, but tried one last time anyway. "But can't I go with you? I can help..." Yomi burst into laughter, shaking his head. "Are you kidding? I am a warrior and most breeders find me short and weird." "Not this time." Sana said with a little frown. "But I promise I'll make it up to you." Hitsugi looked at him surprised, now the attraction he felt was explained. The guy was indeed a warrior. "Well... I think it's pretty cute. There's nothing wrong with being short... I've learned that from years of experience." He ran a hand through his hair, trying to look away and hide his blush. "And weird. I have heard that a lot too." Aki sighed, standing up and kissing the plush lips one more time before going back and throwing himself at the mattress. "Go, before I decide to tie you to my bed. Here's my phone, call me ok?" He handed a piece of paper to Sana, sighing once again. Yomi grinned and moved closer to Hitsugi. "Aw, but I think you're cute too." Sana smiled and put it in his pocket before heading out the door and not looking back. He knew he wouldn't be able to leave if he did. Hitsugi smiled, embarrassed and not knowing what to say, but Sana came to his rescue at the exact time. "Hey Sana. Let's go ne? We're already late... Rose and Sakito are waiting for us at the arena." He looked at Yomi shyly and patted his back when he walked by him "Nice to meet you. I hope we can see each other again." Yomi waved at Hitsugi and went back into his room to tease Aki some more. Sana walked with Hitsugi, still embarrassed over being caught by both Rose and Hitsugi in one day. Hitsugi had forgotten all about his anger between catching his brother making out and developing a crush on Yomi. He tried to take his head out of the little demon while they walked, deciding instead, to tease his brother. "Sooo, who's the handsome demon?" Sana glared at Hitsugi, crossing his arms. "None of your business." He replied. Hitsugi glared back, groaning. "Don't be an ass, I'm your brother. Tell me who he is please. I just want to make sure you're safe. You're gonna mate him?" Sana blushed and decided to tease Hitsugi back. "Yeah, well...what about you and that little guy? You seemed to get along well." Hitsugi blushed so much his eyes stung, but he decided to just answer the question while looking down at his feet. "I kinda like him... But we didn't have any time to talk..." "Well you can keep him busy later." Sana said, figuring that if Yomi was busy with Hitsugi, then Sana could spend time with Aki. "You talk like we are going to mate right away... I'm not even sure I like him like that...And anyway, we should focus on finding Shou right now. Look, there they are..." He pointed at Rose and Sakito, who were waiting at one corner of the arena. Sakito greeted him both, walking quickly to Saga's office. "I have three minutes before the class starts, I will not be able to stay with you, ok?" He pointed to a door at the end of a long hall and turned around to leave. "I really have to go, his office is the last one. Good luck guys. And keep me updated..." Sana nodded, getting more serious now as he walked to the office and knocked on the door. Saga answered, looking at the three and recognizing them immediately. Of course he could already tell by their thoughts who they were. "Come in." He said, moving aside to let them into his office. Hitsugi looked at his brothers with a raised eyebrow, but walked into the office anyway. What kind of person let strangers into their office without even asking their names? "I know who you are. The children of Kyo and Satsuki." Saga said as he moved to sit down behind his desk again. "I was expecting you." Saga nodded slowly, putting one of his hands under his chin. "I'll need some time to think on it, but for now you should all lay low and not stir up too much of a disturbance. I'll request some of the teachers to start getting the warriors better prepared for a fight....because I know there will be one now that Satsuki's time is running out." They all nodded, but something else was on Rose's mind. He just looked at Saga and thought about Satsuki, his mind asking what would happen to him. Beside never seeing his brother again, the fear of losing his mom to the angels was eating him away. "I don't know about that yet." Saga said out loud. "But I can't say he's completely safe either." Rose sank down on his chair, trying to contain the tears and the panic raising within him. Hitsugi just looked down at his feet, sighing."How much time until we can talk about a plan or something with other demons? After all, just the three of us can fly, and attacking alone is not a option..." "I'll talk to some of the demons for you. By tomorrow I'll have something organized." Saga said, already figuring out a few people that could help. Hitsugi smiled softly to Saga and stood, walking to the door and taking with him a very depressed Rose. "Thank you for you kindness... We'll be here tomorrow." They left, motioning for Sana to come with them. "Where are we going now?" "Well, you guys can stay at Sakito's house." Sana said, with a small shrug. "I'm going to be building alliances with the demons." Hitsugi and Rose just smiled maliciously at Sana, teasingly punching his arms, one walking on each side of the brunette. "Build alliances? I didn't know it had another name. Sana rolled his eyes and hit each of his brothers in return. "Cut it out, guys." He said with a little pout, before heading in the direction of Aki's dorm room. Rose smiled, but after a second to think, looked down and sighed, calling his brother back. "Sana, wait!" He jogged to get closer to the brunette and looked at him for a long moment, nibbing on his lower lip. "Please don't do it. You can get pregnant, we don't know how our bodies will react to mating... And we have a nasty battle coming, I don't want anything happening with you or my nephew." Sana sighed and gave Rose a little half hug. "Don't be stupid, Rose. After all the grief I gave you about having a mate, do you think I'm going to rush right into attaching myself to someone like that?" The blonde pouted, looking down while tugging at the end of the braid he had done on his hair. "You know you can't help getting attached when you find your soul mate...Besides, you looked pretty willing to me." He hugged his brother suddenly, quickly letting to lightly punch his shoulder instead, a sad smile on his lips. "Just keep my nephews alive, ok?" Sana nodded a bit and kissed the top of Rose's head. "You and Hitsugi stay safe. And make sure nothing happens to mom. I want to know right away if something comes up." Hitsugi nodded, finally grasping Rose's hand gently and tugging him on the direction of the headmaster room. "We will keep you updated of everything. Keep your cell phone with you. We will talk to the headmaster and ask for a room... I'll text you the number later..." Sana nodded and waited until his brothers were out of sight before he raised his hand to knock on the door. He hesitated though. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea. He sighed, pressing his head to the door. A second later the door was opened though and Yomi was stepping out. Sana was knocked off balance and he fell inside the room, narrowing missing Yomi. Yomi looked down at Sana and poked him in the side with his foot. "Ah, I knew you were coming back. I'm going to a friend's room while you and lover boy get it on." Aki heard the commotion through the door of the bathroom and walked to the room clad only in a tiny black towel. He quickly sprung to action, grabbing the little demon poking Sana by the shoulders and shoving him out of the room. "And stay out until tomorrow!" He grasped Sana's arms much more gently, helping him on his feet. "You okay? How did you fell anyway?" Sana blushed a bit and avoided looking at Aki, because the demon looked a little too good in only a towel. "I...um...could you put something on?" Aki looked down at himself, blushing. "Yeah! Sure!" He walked to the bathroom, quickly finishing drying up and slipping on the comfy pj bottoms he had taken with him. He walked back into the room and sat on the bed, against the headboard, motioning for the other to come and cuddle with him. Sana moved over and sat on the side of the bed, still keeping some distance between them. He was scared to get any closer just in case he couldn't resist Aki. Aki frowned, sitting up straight and throwing his arms around Sana, holding him close to his chest and going back to his previous position, now one leg on each side of the slim body. Once he had a firm grip, he grunted, nibbling on the earlobe in front of his face. "Now, what's the problem?" Sana shivered and tried to push Aki away, though it was really weak. The other was so warm and comforting and the touch felt perfect. "We can't be mates..." Aki just hold Sana tighter, wounding his legs around him too. He pouted, one hand going down to caress the tender skin around Sana's bellybutton. "Why not? It's nonsense. It's pretty clear you don't really think like that..." He licked a stripe on the white neck presented to him, sucking gently behind the pierced ear. "You're getting hot..." Sana groaned softly, enjoying the attention. Why was it so hard to resist him? He finally knew what it felt like to be helplessly attracted to someone to the point of needing their touch. "This isn't fair." He muttered softly. Aki laughed, a little breathless, before resuming the stimulation. He was reacting to the slim body pressed to his, his hips giving unconscious little thrusts against Sana backside. The air was soon getting heavy and sweat was collecting at his forehead even before they started anything serious. The taste of the skin beneath his lips was addicting, just as the warm of Sana's flesh against his was perfect. With one quick movement, he undid the tight grip of his legs around the brunette's waist and bent his knees, throwing Sana's right leg in top of his. One of Aki's hands sneaked down to caress teasing circles on the other demon's crotch. Sana leaned against Aki, a gasp leaving his parted lips as he spread his own legs a little wider. He was so weak to give in like this, but perhaps it was just his loneliness catching up with him. He gave up, moving one of his arms back around Aki's neck, rolling his hips in response against the demon's. Aki panted at the response, thrusting more surely now. With his free hand, he turned Sana's head so they could kiss, the angle difficult, but still delicious. The hand that was caressing the brunette's crotch came up, fumbling with the belt and opening the other's demon's pants, quickly diving inside and cupping the bulge through the underwear. Sana turned his head a little more to deepen the kiss, his hips rolling into Aki's touch but at the same time, rubbing deliciously against his soon-to-be-mate's growing arousal. Aki groaned deeply, suddenly not satisfied with the position anymore. "Wait, hm..." He stood up, walking to the end of the bed and tugging Sana's shoes off, the pants following soon after. Walking back up, it was the time of Sana's little shirt to be attacked, joining the pile beside the bed in a split second. The demon groaned in appreciation of the sight before him, leaning down to suck on the jewels around the other's bellybutton. Sana trembled slightly, his fingers finding their way into Aki's dark hair as his sensitive stomach was teased. He knew he got those piercings for a reason. Aki released the piercings, kissing his way up slowly to Sana's mouth and delving his tongue inside. He thrusted his hips against the other's, one hand sliding down the smooth side to grasp a thigh, lifting it up a little bit and making the friction more intense. Sana slid his own tongue against Aki's, playing with the piercing Aki had through it. He whimpered in need once the other started up that teasing thrusting motion again. He needed so much more. "Aki, get on with it..." Sana said with a little laugh, sitting up some and pushing Aki roughly onto his back. "Or should I take over?" Aki just laughed, rolling on top of him in a second. "Oh, someone is eager!" He obeyed Sana and slid a hand under the last piece of clothing, stroking at a fast pace. "And here I was, throwing compliments, trying to be romantic and special." He teased, squeezing the flesh on his hand every time his mate's body tensed a little too much. Sana thrust into Aki's hand, watching him with lust filled eyes as he moved his own hand over the front of Aki's pajama bottoms. Aki groaned, rolling hips into the touch but, after a few seconds, he decided he had enough of foreplay, his body tense and ready. Groaning, he tugged at Sana's underwear, throwing it on the ground and grabbing a hand lotion from the bedside table. It would have to do. Sana spread his legs, ready and waiting for Aki to begin stretching him. There was barely a thought of regret there at all at this point and he wanted Aki so much, with his heart and soul. Aki spread the lotion on his fingers, cursing when it took a couple of tries to close the bottle with his shaking hands. He leaned down, dropping a sweet little kiss to Sana's lips before forcing a finger inside, watching his mate's face intently. Sana shifted and nodded to Aki, urging him to go on. He was no stranger to a little pain, especially when he got into fights as often as he did. Aki relaxed a little when Sana didn't protest, moving his finger a little faster before leaning to kiss him, while adding a second digit. Sana moaned a little, returning the kiss calmly, completely relaxed now that he was getting what he wanted. Aki moaned too, parting their lips, feeling breathless and drunk with pleasure. He crooked his fingers inside Sana, trying to get a more vehement response from him before taking the final step. Sana's body jerked in response once Aki's fingers brushed his spot. "Ahhhn, Aki.." He moaned, tugging on Aki's arm a bit. He needed it now. Aki groaned in need, taking his fingers off and wiping it on the bed sheets. With a deep shaking breath, he ran a hand down Sana's right side, kissing his hipbone. "Turn around..." Sana turned around and moved so he was on his hands and knees, arching his back elegantly as he pulled a pillow over to rest his head on. Aki moaned at the sight presented at him, running his hands up and down the white skin before grasping the slim hips and positioning himself. He slid in without much trouble, Sana's body gently relaxed. When he was all the way inside, he stopped, letting out the breath he didn't know he was holding. Still holding a hip with one hand, he slid the other to the brunette's chest, pulling him closer before slowly sitting on his calves, bringing Sana with him. When Aki was finally happy with the intimate position, he nuzzled the other demon's ear, kissing his cheek. "Any good?" Sana nodded, smiling and nuzzling Aki in return. "It's perfect." He breathed, turning his head to place a kiss on Aki's lips. Aki kissed him throughly before starting to thrust up slowly. The position demanded a lot of his legs and he would probably be sore in the morning but it was deep, intense and perfect. He used a hand on Sana's chest to hold him close all the time, the other going down to play with the piercings, not going further to make the act last more. Sana's head fell back as he moved with each of Aki's thrusts, making it easier for him. "Nnn..." He moaned softly, taking Aki's hands in his own. Aki bit the shoulder in front of him, groaning and panting, the thrusts gaining confidence and speed. He squeezed the hand on his, both of them going up and down Sana's chest, stroking his arousal a few times. Using a hand to arch his mate's back a little more, Aki changed the angle slightly, looking for that spot deep inside Sana. Sana released a loud groan as Aki indeed moved at just the right angle. He brought one of Aki's hands down to stroke even more over his length. Aki began to stroke Sana fast, wanting, needing, some kind of release. The movements of his hips were now sharp, seeking the last bolt of pleasure that would throw him over the edge. With a low groan, he stopped his ministrations for a second to grasp Sana's hands and place them in the mattress, leaning a forward a little bit too, gaining more leverage. He resumed his movements, the handjob a little sloppy, but the thrusts more powerful. Sana was sent over the edge within seconds after the position was changed. He cried out his mate's name, spilling out his seed onto the demon's hand and the sheets below. Aki took another minute or so, his hands tightening on Sana's hips with bruising strength when he finally reached his peek, releasing inside his spent lover, white dots dancing in front of his eyes. When he was done, he felt drained, slouching forward and using both hands on the sheets to not fall over Sana. He kissed the sweaty skin of his mate's back, resting his cheek there and smiling. "What were you saying about we not being able to mate?" Sana fell onto the bed, curling up. He sighed and pulled Aki close to snuggle with him. "I shouldn't have done that..." "Hmmm, what are you saying? Why not?" He kissed Sana's forehead, hugging him close, not even trying to wipe that stupid smirk of his face. "Because you don't know what I am." Sana whispered, feeling a bit like he was about to cry. How stupid was he? He just did exactly what he had always warned his brothers against. Aki nuzzled his neck, holding him as close as he could. "Hmm...What do you mean? You're my beautiful, slim, stubborn, hopefully pregnant, little mate. And I love you." He was so happy, not even a lit bit afraid of the adult life he would have to lead from now on. It had started pretty well. Sana shook his head and pushed away from Aki. "It's not that simple..." He muttered, looking down at the messy sheets. "I'm not...completely a demon..." Aki frowned, looking at him and trying to make sense of his words on his sleepy mind. He shook his head, giving up. "What do you mean?" Aki screamed in surprise, falling off the bed. He looked up with his mouth open, not believing on his eyes. "That's so...cool!" He crawled back into bed, stretching a arm to touch the feathers, feel the tendons and bones. "The color is different from the angels too! How you did it? This is so...damn." It was Sana's turn to be surprised as he watched Aki's reaction. "My mom was an angel..." He muttered in reply. "You're really not afraid of me or anything?" Aki rolled his eyes at him, using a hand to force him to lay on his stomach. He sat on Sana's back, examining with childish curiosity, the place where the wings and skin joined."Why would I? You're my mate anyway, so you like me enough to not hurt me. And look like you were raised here, so you're just as demon as I am... With little add ons." He laid a kiss between the wings, watching for any different reaction. Sana shivered, that part of his back being sensitive. "So you won't mind if we have children that are a little...different?" Aki smirked and laid his upper half on top of him, resting his head beside Sana's on the pillow. "They're mine, so they're gonna be perfect like me." He laughed, sitting back before Sana decided to slap him. He tugged a little on the upper part of the wings, still not satisfied with his examination. "Open wideee!" Sana sighed and stretched his wings out to their full extent, hugging one of the pillows close. "Satisfied?" He asked, glancing over his shoulder. Aki laughed, running his hands through the feathers. "No, but you can hide them now if you want. I'll probably be a brat and ask to see it three times a day anyway." Sana's wings sunk back into his back, leaving only light impressions of where they were supposed to be. "As long as no one is around, you can see them as much as you want." Aki kissed the marks before getting up on his knees and urging Sana to turn around. "I will keep that in mind... What about your brothers? They have wings too? And that's why you don't know if you're a breeder?" Aki laid down beside Sana, kissing his cheek. "I think is really cool. Like a new, updated kind of demon. I always though it was unfair that only the angels could fly." He reached for his cigarettes on the bedside table, lighting one and offering to Sana after the first drag. Sana shook his head and pat his stomach. "I can't be doing that if I'm expecting." He said, smiling a bit. Though he knew it would be better if he didn't have a child, he couldn't help being a little excited by the thought. Aki just looked at him for a second, clueless, before turning to butt the cigarette on the ashtray that sat on the bedside table, a guilty expression on his face. "I forgot that..." He laid down again, pulling his mate close and cuddling him, a hand caressing the flat stomach. "What should we call him?" "I don't know. I wasn't expecting to ever have kids." Sana replied, snuggling close to Aki and closing his eyes. "Don't say something sad like that..." He tugged on the comforter of Yomi's bed and used it to cover their bodies, relaxing against Sana's warm skin... He was ready for some sleep too. "I want to meet your parents once all this is over..." "Mm..." Sana mumbled softly in reply as he drifted off to sleep. He was sure they would want to meet him too, just to see the person that actually broke through Sana's barrier. Aki smiled, hugging Sana closer and drifting to sleep as well, sighing in happiness.
