Ghoul-Ish

Back to normal

My heart was pounding. I was berthing heavily. Blood was all over my face. I looked up and I saw a face. 'Who's there?' I thought. I heard the bush shaking. "Who is this?" He looked at me, then bent down. He took off the mask. "Huh? Akou?" He looked at me and gasped in fear seeing blood cover my face. "Akou?!" I lied there staring at him. I couldn't talk. 'What do I do?' He tried to help me up. "Are you alright?" I looked at him and gave a light smile. "The.. The mask.." That's the only thing I could say. He grabbed the mask and put it in my jacket pocket. 'Wait... It's Yuei...' I thought to myself. He helped me up and started carrying me. My legs were dragging along. I knocked out a few minutes later. When I woke up, I was in a bed. "You up?" He looked at me smiled. "What happened man?" "Where am I?" "At my house.." "W-what about your mom?" "She's at work..." "Oh... Why'd you bring me here?" "I couldn't take you to the hospital... So this was the only choice I had." "Thank you... But I'll be going now" I tried to stand up out of the bed, but he stopped me. "You're hurt man. Just rest." "I can't stay here. It'll put you in harms way." "What do you mean?" "There is a ghoul that's after me... He did this to me..." "Why don't we tell the investigators?" "Because.. He's my dad..." "You're dad did this?! Why?!" "It doesn't matter! Apparently he can track me down... And if I'm here he'll get you next... He knows about you!!" I stood up out of the bed and started to walk back downstairs. "Where are you going?" "I'm leaving..." I walked out of the house and started to walk back to Anteiku. "Damnit Akou!!" Yuei sighed and decided to leave it alone. As soon as I got back to Anteiku it was closing time. "Where have you been?" "It doesn't matter... I've come to a decision... What I'm doing most of you won't agree with but that doesn't matter... I'm........."
