Hey

Ohayo Gozaimasu (good morning)
Not much to say since it's 7:10 in the morning and no school yet. *sigh*

I'm gonna go ahead and post more of that story. So you all can read a bit more and hopefully comment. ^^

(ugh. I can't think of the title. I'll post it later today)
untitled story part 3

I stayed with them the rest of the night. Elliot and I discussed that they would leave with me before dawn. The sun’s rays have just breeched the edge of the horizon. We have traveled quite a long way since we left.

It’s just like before. Mimori sits on my shoulders and plays with my cat ears, but when someone comes by, she quickly puts my hat back on my head. Sometimes she plays with my hair as welll. Elliot carries most of our belongings.

It’s near sundown, and we’re about to stop for the night. Mimori fell asleep on my shoulders, and she had laid her head on mine. I could feel her fingering the ears under the hat as she slept. She stirred and woke up shortly. In a barely audible tone, she mumbled, “Yumi, don’t leave again. Okay?”

“I won’t, Mimori.”

“Promise?”

“Yeah. I promise?”
She fell asleep again. I laid her down by the fire Elliot had just made. This is when I knew we had to talk. Elliot had been quiet for most of the time. His face was serious and his eyes were stern

I sighed, “I know what you’re gonna say, and I’m sorry.”

“All I want to know is why you left. You left in the middle of the night, leaving no word that you left. Just an empty bed and a note that said ‘Bye. Love, Yumi.’ Why did you leave?”

“I got scared.”

“You know I’d protect you.”

“I was scared for you two. I was afraid they would hurt you if I stayed. But I was wrong. All my efforts to protect you guys have gone to waste,” tears began to well up in my eyes.

Suddenly, I felt strong arms embrace me. “Elliot.”

“Sister, do you know how much Mimori cried. She cried until she fell asleep. When she woke up, she cried again. Don’t hurt her again.”

I hugged him back, “I won’t. I promise.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Morning came. Mimori, the only morning person in the family, woke up at dawn and was trying her best to wake us up. She started on me. Just like a cat, my tail swished as I slept. She grabbed it, and she gave it a good yank. I jolted up like any normal cat would. On the other hand, Elliot was the hard sleeper. I was still half asleep while she held my tail and rubbed it on Elliot’s nose. He sneezed loudly and woke up.

Rubbing sleep from my eyes, I said, “I guess you’re happy I’m back.”

Mimori smiled and said, “Now I can wake up Elliot! He never got up when you were gone. So welcome back.” She laughed.

Elliot glared at my tail, “Yeah. Welcome back.”Again, Mimori sat on my shoulders, plating with my ears, as we walked to the next town.

I had recently been to this town. I liked it, but when I looked at it this time, it shocked me. The town was in complete ruin. The buildings had been turned to ash. The worst part of all, and what made me cover Mimori’s eyes when I saw it, was death. The charred remains of human bodies were pinned by spears to trees or buildings that were not burned. It was a horrid sight that made me vomit. Nearby was a forest that we quickly ran into. Again, I vomited.

While I knelt down after vomiting, Mimori held my arm around her. She must have seen it for a brief moment, because she was shaking all over. I held her close until the shaking stopped.

“Sister,” she said, “What happened to those people?”

“They were killed in a horrible way, Mimori,” I replied truthfully.

“It’s sickening! Who would do this?” Elliot exclaimed.

“It’s them. They’re looking for me,” I said quietly.

Mimori and Elliot looked at me in confusion, and they almost simultaneously asked, “Who?”

“It’s not important. What is important, is that we leave here immediately.”

We all agreed on the idea and fled the area quickly. We settled the night in a desolate plain that covered the area for miles. Mimori and Elliot were fast asleep. Elliot was resting his head on one of his sacks, while Mimori snuggled between her older brother’s arm and stomach. I smiled at the sight. If it weren’t for the demon, I would be happier to reunite with them. I’m just afraid for them. I don’t want them to get hurt. I’ll protect them.

I stood up, but shockingly, I collapsed on the spot. I couldn’t breathe. My head was hurting, and my eyesight was beginning to blur. Pain began ascending through my body. I never felt such pain before. I wanted to scream, but the lack of in my lungs was preventing me. I held myself in a poor attempt to stop it. Elliot awoke to the noise I made. He saw me, near tears, writhing in pain. He quickly became worried and immediately came to my side. He was afraid to touch me for fear of causing more pain. Mimori then woke up, and she started to cry.

Without thinking twice, Elliot embraced me to help me through the pain, and he bgan to talk softly, “Yumi, what’s wrong? What’s hurting you?”

I couldn’t answer. I was beginning to fade from the lack of oxygen. I suddenly realized that this was how the demon showed. It housed itself within me, and when it became strongest, it would kill me and take over. I was blind to this. Not any more. I will not succumb to it.

In my mind I saw the demon’s spirit. I focused my mind, and soon enough the pain stopped. I gasped for breath and collapsed into my brother’s arms. Mimori came over and held me as well. Cold sweat rolled down my face and nack.

“Yumi, are you okay now?” asked Elliot.

“Yeah,” I panted.

Mimori hugged me tighter and I could feel the wetness of her tears fall on my shirt.

“Sister, what’s wrong? What happened to you?”

I didn’t want to tell her the truth, but I couldn’t bear lying to her. So I said, “It tried to come out.”

Mimori looked up confused, but Elliot fully understooid and his face showed he was upset.

“You don’t mean Kanna, do you?” he asked.

“What’s Kanna, Brother?” Mimori asked.

My brother and I exchanged glances, unsure of what to say. I decided to go ahead and let her know. So I said, “Mimori. Every wonder why I looked different?” I saw the little girl shake her head. “These ears, tail, eyes. They are the signs of a demon. Every one hundred years, a demon is born into a human family. It turns out I’m that demon. The demon possessed body acquires the three traits I already pointed. And Kanna is the demon’s real name.”

“Why are you the demon?” she asked.

“It was chosen by fate. Do you hate me now?”

The little girl smiled, “I would never hate you, Sister. I don’t understand it all, but I’ll never stop loving you.”

That last comment saddened me. Kanna will soon prevail in overtaking me, and I’m afraid of what it will do to them. I hugged Mimori tight. I felt sad that she would probably be killed by my hands, but I felt happy knowing someone loved me.

“Thank you, Mimori,” I said.

“Yumi, you sure you’re all right?” Elloiot asked.

I nodded my head in answer.

We slept for the remainder of the night, and continued our journey to the next town. Town after town we went. We could never stay for more than a week, for fear someone would recognize me.
