Birds of a Feather | Soul of Yokai AU

Let's End This

"And that's the last of them." Sakuya gave a sigh of relief.

"Alright!" I yelled excitedly.

Soon, a flock of Tengu soon were flying their way down the mountain.

Sakuya called out, "Hey! Where are you all heading?!"

A Tengu soon stopped, "Yukio's having an announcement! We're going to see it!"

Sakuya and I soon gave each other a knowing look.

"Heh." I smirked, "Wonder what that's for."

Sakuya rolled his eyes at my comment, "Come on, let's go see him."

Sakuya soon held me and we soon flew down to the town. It wasn't hard to guess where the announcement was since only part of the town had people all around it. Sakuya sat on a rooftop of a building, put me down and we watched from above. I could see all the different Yokai standing with Yukio and Hayato in the centre.

"Everyone!" Yukio shouted, "Please, listen! Everything I have said is true!"

"Damn straight!" Hayato affirmed, "You all know there's nothing but disaster going around here! The Tengu got poisoned and are sick on the streets! And it's no coincidence these are going on! That damn Tamen has come back again!"

Soon an elegant figure stepped from the crowd.

"Yukio, stop this nonsense right now!" Yumi ordered, "That God caused more damage, we both know more than anyone but you're going to need more than just some claims without evidence!"

"Look around you!" Hayato shouted, "This whole damn place is in chaos!"

"How do we know that's not just from Yukio's poor leadership?!" Yumi was held back by people who looked similar to her. I think those were her sisters.

One of the sisters soon led Yukina away.

"Please everyone! I know this sounds crazy but it's true!" Yukio pleaded, "If you don't then this madness will continue!"

The Yokai all shrieked with questions.

"Settle down! Settle down!" Yukio replied, "We can handle this, don't worry! And I won't let you all get hurt!"

"Yeah!" Hayato asserted, "We're going to crush that God and restore the Yokai World back to the way it was!"

Some of the Yokai soon clapped in encouragement.

"Pretty cheap words coming from you two." We heard a voice.

Heads soon swerved to 'Mr. Uso' standing in the crowd. Except, he had fox ears and tails this time around.

"Okay, I think that's our cue to step in." I stated.

"Yes." Sakuya held me in his arms.

"Such pretty lies to cover up the real cause of this chaos!" 'Mr. Uso' snickered, "My fellow Yokai, surely you won't listen to this bumbling idiot? Who brought you wood? I helped the Yukihito side of the Hirano family's business and saved this town."

"Yeah, because they all did well." Sakuya flew down with me and stared daggers at 'Mr. Uso'. His eyes burned with a seething rage.

"Sakuya! Nami!" Hayato rejoiced, "What took you two so long?"

"We were helping out the Tengu." I answered.

"Anyways. You claimed to have helped my stepfamily by bringing wood, but from what I can remember, the residences that were constructed with that wood eventually caught fire entirely on their own. And a few days ago, I was in the human world, and when I went to Yukina's boutique, it turned out that allegedly their newly released new design had been killing the humans who had worn it." Sakuya hissed, "Why did these occur if you are, in fact, intended to be supporting them?"
