The last Hope

chapter 9

5MINS EARLIER

RUKI POV:

it had been 10 minutes since shou and silica left to go do something and I was getting a bit worried they seemed to have a serious look on their faces when they left so I assume it was important anyways besides me worrying about those 2 this meeting was really boring there was no arguing no shouting no playful dickish remarks just business god these factions honestly bore me especially that old guy standing on the stage

"man this is so borrriiingg" I say to myself

"indeed lady ruki though I am curious as to why no representative of the dragons are here" wraith said while holding shiku now listen im usually a very jealous person when it come to people spending time with my younger siblings but I dont know just the way that shiku looks so comfortable with wraith it kinda makes me happy to see

"mmm that is a bit odd but I guess it has something to do with how Tiamat acts when shou's around" I say sighing in boredom until I hear a weird voice coming from nowhere

"I object" said the weird voice

"im surprised he waited this long" said the old guy on the stage and they then some guy with ridiculously long hair which seemed to defy gravity appeared

yeah im not going to lie I kinda zoned out the moment he started talking that was until he summoned a giant wolf/dog thing from no where and im not gonna lie I still didn't care in the slightest you could tell because while everyone was standing up and freaking out while wraith shiku and I were still sitting given shiku was asleep but still "honestly their scared of this pup geez the quality of devils sure has decreased" I say

"oh and what do we have here a death dragon and 2 demons" said the weird floaty guy "it has been a long time since I last saw a demon I thought there was only one of you left" he said with a condescending smirk

"yeah and I thought a god would be more of a threat" I reply with my own smirk which only increased with the look of anger on his face "let me guess your not use to someone back chatting you oh no did I hurt the poor 'gods' feelings" I say finishing with a fake sad look on my face which soon changed to a smile

"HOW DARE YOU. YOU INSIGNIFICANT WORM INSULT A GOD FANRIR KILL THEM" the floaty man shouted with anger in his voice and as soon as he said that the big wolf/dog thing leapt at us

wraith jumped out of the way still holding shiku who had started to wake up and I was still standing in the way with my smile on my face as its jaws got closer to me I moved my hands up and caught the wolf by its fangs holding it back with relative ease I then proceeded to push its jaw up and kick it in the side of the head "so this pup is supposed to be a threat" I say with a smile on my face walking over to shiku and wraith seems all the noise had woke shiku up "well hello sleeping bea-" I was then cut off as I felt a pain in my chest as I collapsed to the floor holding my chest and trying my best to breath properly "w-whats g-going on" upon looking up I could see that the same was happening to shiku "w-what I-is this" I panted out

"lady shiku lady ruki whats wrong" wraith asked with concern in her normally dead voice as she placed shiku on the ground with me and was checking up on us not quite hearing the footsteps heading over to us "Azazel whats wrong with them" wraith asked Azazel who had ran over to us

"im not sure" he said laying me down while I could here the others fighting the giant dog/wolf "wait....where's shou" he said with concern looking around the room

"master shou left with lady silica about 15 minutes ago im not sure where why does this have something to do with him" asked wraith

"I've seen this type of thing before with demons it happens when a family member dies or is dying" he said with a grim look on his face
