Platonic Various- Little one

So... Cold... 

Where am I...?

I want to go home...

You are jolted awake by a harsh slap. "Oi, wake up. It's your turn." The man who deceived you and brought you to here unties your hands gingerly. "And, if you try anything, you aren't getting food for a week again." He warns you. You nod slightly, scared, and slowly stand up to being following him.

This would probably be your final chance before you would be sold off or killed. You had to escape, today. 

Preparing yourself to run, you scoop up the ridiculously long robe you are wearing. Just as you take the first step, you hear screams. You don't look back, taking the chance to run. 

Your whole body ached from past injuries, bruises and blood dotting your skin. Soon enough, you escape the town where the market was. You collapse on the ground, heaving. Now, it was up to fate to let you live. 

A small child, on their own, in the forest. What perfect prey for spirits or animals, you think to yourself. And then you close your eyes, exhausted.

You wake up to the sound of murmuring. You leave your eyes (not orbs) closed as you try to analyse the situation. It seemed like a spirit was watching you sleep. Deciding to take the risk, you open your eyes slightly, trying to see if you should run. 

To your surprise, the spirit seems like a child. And a cute one at that. The spirits blonde hair shone in the morning sun, his cute face contrasting the mask on the side of his head. He clutches his clothes tightly around himself as he crouches over you, observing you. His face lights up when you open your eyes.

 "You're awake!" He almost sings, leaping up and dancing around you. "W-who...?" You say, rubbing your eyes. His face fills with joy "And you can TALK!!" He exclaims, as though it is strange. "he crouches down over you again, squeezing your face. "Aren't you adorable! My name is Hannya, small child!" He giggles, eyes looking you up and down. His gaze stops on the price tag that is tied around your ankle. He leans down and rips it off, noticing the raw skin where the tag rubbed on for your whole life.

 His face falls slightly before brightening. "Did you run away?" He asks, taking your hand and helping you up. You nod, clutching the oversized robe around you. The cold wind was biting, and Hannya seemed to notice your shivering. He took off his jacket (what is it called??) and placed it around your shoulders before running off in front of you. "Well, since you are basically free now, let's have some fun!" You widen your eyes as he picks you up and begins running through the forest.

 You cling to his shoulders, scared at the inhuman speed he was running at. Slowly, you got used to it, and began to look around. The sound of a flute floats towards you and Hannya, making him stop and wave. "Hi Mannendake!" Hannya shouts, making the spirit stop playing the flute. Mannendake glares at Hannya, before going back to his flute. "As always, cold." Hannya whispers to you, making you smile slightly. 

Hannya takes off again, running towards a wall. "Watch out!" You yell in fear, but Hannya showed no signs of stopping. He only smiled, saying "You said something!" You let out a shriek as Hannya jumped over the wall, landing in a courtyard. He smiled at you, placing you on the ground gently. You sway for a second, before falling on the ground with a small oomph. "Seimei-sama!" Hannya calls out. "I found a human child! Can we keep it?"

You shuffle towards the wall, making sure nothing can sneak up on you. Seeing a man enter the courtyard, you bow your head slightly, taking note of his slightly fancy clothes and his hat that tell you he is an Onmyōji. He takes one look at you before calling out. "Kagura-chan! Yao Bikuni-san! I need your help!" He kneels down, and lifts your head. His expression softens slightly when he sees your eyes shaking. He smiles slightly at you. 

"Hello there, what's your name?" He asks, helping you up. Leaning against him slightly, you whisper, "I-I'm Maya." He smiles down at you, taking your hand and leading you onto the deck(?). "It is nice to meet you, Maya-chan. You are safe here. Don't worry." He sits down, and you join him, leaning on his shoulder. "I am Abe no Seimei. You can just call me Seimei." You close your eyes slightly, tired. "N-nice... to meet you... Seimei-sama."

 He smiles at you, brushing your hair out of your face. as you fall asleep, a child turns the corner, holding an umbrella. A woman with dark hair follows not too fare behind, both of them careful not to wake you. Seimei look at Hannya, and tilts his head questioning while looking at the mark on your ankle. Hannya hands him the tag he ripped off you. Seimei's face darkens, knowing where it came from. "Kagura-chan, go look for some clothes for Maya. Yao Bikuni-san, I need you to see if anyone followed them. Hannya and I will take them inside." Seimei gently lifts you onto his back, Hannya following behind him. Kagura runs off, Kohaku appearing and following her. Yao Bikuni casts a spell, and everything is peaceful.

But not for long.
