Hanako: “YASHIRO!- C’mon! Just take some deep breaths with me!” He was trying to hunt for some prey a while ago when he saw Yashiro lying down on the ground. She looked like she was struggling to breathe. —————————————— All she saw around was a hazy purple.. Was this a message from god? Was her curse finally doing its final bidding? She prayed so, it was already becoming a problem. She couldn’t even play with the younger villagers cause she would always have a coughing fit, or the villagers would make fun of her. She’d rather be made fun of than die like this. She was so confused that she didn’t even notice him. Her savior- ???: “Lilia, are you okay?” Who,.. who was that? Lilia: “Yes I’m doing alright Cult.” —————————————— Hanako looked so desperate to save her, because everyone knew, deep in his heart... she was the one. He was about to tear up over this mishap, like he had done something so sinful, he couldn't bear it. And it was clear as day. Nene was indeed falling ill. And the worst part about it, there was nothing he could do. Not alone, anyway. He needed help, but no one was around. Or so he thought. In the distance, he spotted two unusual figures. Or at least, silhouettes of them.It was hard to identify who they were with such a large gap in distance, but he could hear faint voices. And then he called out, his voice shaking. "Hey! Can you come help...?! My assistant here, I think... She's unwell!" He didn't want to move even a single milimeter from her. And there was absolutely no way he would let her out of his sight. He couldn't lose her, not like this. Not now, not ever. As he was just about to break down, they came. A blue haired boy who looked quite similar to Hanako appeared, along with a pink haired girl who closely resembled Nene. Along with so many similarities in their appearance, it was clear that their personalities differed quite a bit. Cult had one of his hands on his hip, looking skeptical, while Lilia looked worried and ready to help. —————————————— After some time, Yashiro had recovered. Hanako sat next to her in his wolf form, making sure the “Guest” didn't get too close to her, his pointed glare stayed at the blue haired boy.. He was way too suspicious. Lilia: “But yeah, we kind of got sucked into a circle-thingy when fighting one of the mothers.” Yashiro: “Well I hope you can return at least! It’d be a shame if you don’t” Cult and Hanako were having a stare-off while the girls were talking, Cult suddenly wrapped his arms around Lilia. Cult: “I don’t trust them, that boy turned into a wolf… he could be a demon”, Lilia nodded now feeling uneasy. When Hanako had moved a paw, Cult had shot. Hanako yelped, turning into his human form, Hanako: “What is your problem?! I haven’t done anything!!” Cult: “You're a monster, don’t even get me started on your kind..” —————————————— Nene then had to step in, as weak as she was. She extended her arms out, shielding Hanako. After that, the tone in her voice changed. "Hey, what do you think you're doing?! You can't hurt him! If you were an innocent person who could transform into a wolf, would you want someone to shoot you without another thought?! He did nothing wrong!"And with that, she rushed to his side, kneeling down beside him and attending to his wound. After seeing how much blood left his body, she began to panic. She then looked to the others, the ones who had harmed Hanako, hoping to seek help. "H-hey, do either of you have any bandages?! A tourniquet?! Anything!" This time, desperate times really do call for desperate measures. Like Hanako, she would do anything to help him. Over time, the bond they shared grew so strong, it became infinite. Nothing could divide them and ruin what they had. She shot a glare at the two of them, demanding an answer. And she wouldn't take "no" for an answer, either. ——————————————
Cult gave her a hard stare, he looked.. Soulless like this, like he didn’t care about what was happening to someone. Cult: “He’s tricked you, he’s nothing more but manipulating you. He could eat you at any point in time.” he stepped closer to her, his gun pointing at her forehead. “He could do it.. Right now-” Nene just stood there, she was quite literally about to get k1//ed by a sociopath. She couldn’t believe it, how- why-, then they disappeared into smoke. She was in shock, but she looked behind her to make sure Hanako was there, he was. His paw/hand was fine and he was just staring at her in amazement. Yashiro: “Are you okay?-” Hanako: “Yes ma’am..” she paused.. What? Yashiro: “Huh? What, Hanako, what did you say?” Hanako: “I said Yes ma’am..” She was confused at his response. Tilting her head, she asked, "Why so formal...? Its just me, its not like im being super strict right now. You're hurt..." She sighed, thinking over what just happened in her mind. She was so confused, and kind of sad. That boy she had only just met seemed so ruthless, so merciless, like he'd been living in a world full of trauma his whole life... And it seemed not even an inch of sympathy was present in the boy's soul. But there was no way of knowing if something such as that would be nonexistent. Even so, the mere thought scared her. What kind of world were they living in? Without thinking, she started to clutch Hanako's hand, tears forming in her eyes. Whatever she was feeling, it was too overpowering. All she truly knew was that it was essential for Hanako to stay safe, not wanting that same fate the others had experienced. Not to them, nor anyone else… After a few moments had passed, she then spoke. "Hanako... Please promise me everything will be alright... I can't bear the thought of losing you or anyone else to this wretched world..." Hanako, who himself couldn’t bear watch Yashiro cried had licked her tears and told her two simple words.. Hanako: “I promise”
