-10 Hours Ago-
"Generations of Miracles?"
"Aye. They're the ones who rule the vampire league." As if he isn't sober enough, a bulky man gulpped down his large mug of beer. He slammed the mug down on the table and shouted at the waitress for one more.
"How many member?" The teen in the black cape with hood asked.
"5. But there's rumors about a sixth man." The hunter said.
"How do you hunters refer them as? Or perhaps you know their name?"
"Of course we know their name. The Rook named Murasakibara Atsushi. A tall purple giant. He's the black smith of the coven. The Assasin, Kise Ryouta. Quite a handsome blonde lad. He's the information gatherer. The Knight, Aomine Daiki. Tanned man with dark blue. He's a really skilled killer. The Bishop, Midorima Shintarou. He's the vice leader of the coven. Lastly the Empress, Akashi Seika. She's the leader of the coven."
'Hmm? A female leader?' "What about the Sixth member?"
"We ain't know the sixth member's name. All we know it's a male so we all call him Phamton."
'Phamton huh...'
"What cha work as,'mere traveller'" The slightly drunk hunter narrowed his eyes at the teen.
"As an Exorcise. I'm known as the White Exorcise. Please, call me Ice." The hunter parted his lips to reply back but was unfortunately cut by a loud chime from a bell in the Castle of the Village.
"Oh pardon me but I have to go now. Please excuse me." 'Ice' stood up and walked out the small shop.
He covered his eyes with his hands from the blinding sunlight and sighed. He walked down the bumpy road, where the villagers bustling around. Childrens running up and down, all with a cheerful smile on their face. He smiled slightly.
A young boy suddenly stumbled into him. The boy wore tattered clothes. His small, dirty hands from the dirt held a loaf of fresh bread protectively to his chest.
"Oi you brat! Come back here!" A rough voice shouted. A man, who 'Ice' asume that he's the baker, ran towards them. He grab the young boy's arms and pulled him.
"You little thief! Give me back my bread!" The boy winced at the harsh tone of the baker.
"Please release him" 'Ice' held the wrist of the baker gently. "Hah? Why should I?! Whoever wants my bread must pay for it!" The baker glared at him.
He glared back as his tone drop. His grey eyes pierce daggers at the baker's. "I'll pay for him. Now, release him at once." His grip tighten.
The baker immediately dropped that boy, sweatdropping slightly. 'Ice' let go of him and slapped some coins onto his hands. The baker walked away mumbling some words under his breathe.
The boy had his head down on the ground, not lifting it even the slightlest bit. 'Ice' sighed and kneeled til he reached the boy's eye level.
"Hey..." He softly said. He grabbed the boy's chin and lifted it up. The boy's lemon green teary eyes bore into his. "It's alright now. Everything is fine.."
The boy suddenly hug him tightly as he gently embraced the child who started to sobbed at his chest. He carry the boy up and slowly walked away from the crowded area.
----------------------------------
Knock knock
"Yes yes! Wait a sec!!" A voice belonged to a woman shouted behind the door. 'Ice' cradled the sleeping child on his arms as he fell asleep after a fit of crying. The door opened and a brunette came out of it.
"Good afternoon. How may I- 'ICE'!?!?" The said teen quickly hushed the lady and pointed at the sleeping child with his free hand. "C-come in!" She pushed the latter in the cottage hurriedly and shutted the door almost too hard.
"Long time no see, Riko." 'Ice' pulled down his hood. "Long time no see my ass!" Riko, or Aida Riko, slapped his head with a large paper fan.
"Oi Riko! What's wrong?" A bespectacled raven-head popped out of the kitchen and proceeded walking towards her. He stopped his tracks as soon as he saw the whitenette.
"'I-i-i-ce'?! W-wha-?!" The latter sighed. "Calm down Hyuuga. And tone down your voice or you'll- Ah. You already did..." The boy on his arms woke up from his small little slumber. "Hmm...? Whwere?..."
"You're in my friends' house, boy." 'Ice' calmly answered the still sleepy boy with a soft smile. "Onii-chan...?" The boy looked at his surrounding, starting to get wary of it.
"Don't worry. You're safe."
"W-w-wha!? 'Ice'!?! What are you doing kidnapping such a small boy!?!" Hyuuga exaggerated.
"I didn't kidnap him Hyuuga. More like helped him.." Hyuuga dumbfounded at his words. He sighed and explained it all the Hyuuga and his lover.
The both of them gawked at him. He ignored it and turned towards the boy. "What's your name, boy."
"....Kai...."
"Well then Kai-kun, where are your parents?"
"..... I don't know....." Kai shook his head, sadly. 'Ice' raised an eyebrow. "A lady said they went to a better place up there..." What an old trick to tell children about their parents' dead- Was what on Riko's mind but she kept quiet, not wanting to upset the boy.
"... How old are you Kai-kun?" "..6.."
"Why did you steel that bread?" Kai flinched. He fumbled with his fingers. "Is it because you're hungry?"
He slowly nodded. "Where have you been staying all this time?"
"....In the woods..."
'Ice' stopped asking him question and stared at him. For such a young child to live in a dangerous woods is a crime. What if he met the vampires, the werewolfs or the demons?
"Do you want to stay here? With us?" Riko asked this time. Kai shot his head up and looked at her, eyes widen.
"I... can?"
"Of course you can." Hyuuga added. "There's a boy around your age living here too. You can keep him company."
Kai started tearing up again. 'Ice' immediately place him on the floor as he started to squirm under his hold and Kai quickly ran up to Riko and hugged her.
'Ice' smiled at the sight.
------------------------------
"Sooo.... Where have you being? For all this years?" Hyuuga calmly sipped on his hot coffee. He sat on a chair opposite of 'Ice' where a table was set between them. They were out on the balcony of the cottage.
"Hmm? Traveling of course." 'Ice' too, sipped at the tea he gotten from Riko before she accompany the boy to his new room.
"Don't lie to me." The bespectacled man sternly glared at the latter. The whitenette sighed. His eyes soften as he turned to the garden where Riko and Hyuuga went through a lot to finished it. A pond where koi fishes swam without an aim placed beside the fence. Flowers and other types of plants grew around it.
"I've.... Been searching. Searching for the one that has the lock of this key...." He pulled a key with a red ruby on top, tied to a chain on his neck out of his shirt.
"You're still searching?..... Well then have you found her? The one who held the lock..." He sadly shook his head.
"No...." His hand ran into his hair as he fustratingly said the painful truth. "The dream I've always been seeing has started to get more frequent." A flash of the dream past through his mind.
Hyuuga stared at him. His orbs got softer and softer. He sighed and said "I know that person is very important to you. But after all this years of useless searching, don't you think it's time to let go and move on?"
".... I know... But...... I guess you're right, Hyuuga. I should let go now..." 'Ice' smiled sadly. But was quickly replaced with a smirk.
"Well then, as a gesture of thanks, I should help you exorcise the Ayakashi that has been bothering you guys."
Hyuuga looked at him, confused. "Well, I kindda noticed that thing on your shoulder... It's a mark where a type of Ayakashi claim that some certain humans belongs to them and will it them after they sucked up their energy. Have you been tired lately?"
"Now that you said it...." The bespectacled man sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck as 'Ice' smirk widen.
"Well then, I should get going now. I'll have to draw the circle..." The last part came out a mumble but it was clearly heard by the latter. 'Ice' stood up and smiled.
"Say hello to Teppei for me"
"Ouh...."
He walked out to the garden that linked to the woods. Before he was able to continue, "Becareful... Ryuu..." He turned towards Hyuuga and grinned.
"You know I will, Jun"
