13 -Cleaning

chap 13

Shiro was humming. A rather cheerful tune compared to what was in front and soon becoming behind as she skipped through the crowd. Along the way, she would lean and withdraw a knife inviting a shriek or sometimes nothing from the body. Then, she would flick away the blood of said body to the side which more often then not, was another human. Yet no one stopped her. Whether it was the girl's status or the boy behind her stopping them, no one knew. 

When the two finally exited the area could cries of sorrow be heard. Shiro was still humming, skipping along to her merry tune before her skips became a walk and came to a stop.

"Kitsune-jiji! Why are hiding?"

"Well, I was waiting to see when you would stop ignoring me. Plus I didn't want to talk while we were beside all that noise. I wonder why they even bother to create families in this place. After all, this is a hell hole, why would they want their 'precious' families to experience it?" The last part was clearly directed at a certain candy lover.

"Kitsune. If you say any more, I won't be responsible for anything that happens to you." Kuro was behind Kitsune in a moment as cold metal rested on Kitsune's head.

"Onii-chan. Don't kill him." Shiro whispered as she crushed the remaining candy in her mouth.

"Shiro...but..."

The metal withdrew from Kitsune's head and Kuro was once again by Shiro's side.

"Those people back there. They...probably just wanted some sense of normalcy back in their lives. After all, humans are like cockroaches. Be it hell or whatever we'll find a way to survive...even in the most disgusting way possible. In that way, we really are the worst."

The twins slowly walked away leaving the lone old man alone with his thoughts. 'What was with that answer? Humans are like cockroaches? Well, I don't really know or like the comparison but what she said isn't wrong either' Kitsune thought while looking at the mass of people en-crouching the dead grabbing their belongings.

"Ah...we really are disgusting aren't we?"

-----------------------------------------

"Onii-chan, these cleaning tasks are really boring! Why can't they send someone else to do them?"

"Shiro, you yourself agreed to do them. You were really excited too."

"That's because I though there was going to be some fun people there! Onii-chan already knows that. Onii-chan is such a meanie!" Shiro stamped her feet and crossed her arms while facing her elder twin.

"Sorry, Shiro. But, we still have to do it since you volunteered. You can't be lazy and not do them... you're not even listening to me..."

Shiro used her right hand to form a fist and hit her outstretched palm with it. "I got it! Onii-chan, why don't you do the cleaning?"Her eyes sparkled as she clasped her brother's hands. Kuro, being extremely weak when his sister was asking him to do something immediately agreed.

"Yay! Now I don't have to do those irritating cleaning tasks!"

'Ah...as i thought, she didn't hear a single thing I said. Am I really that easily ignored?' Kuro though to himself.

 "Onii-chan, what are you doing? We still need to report to the boss that we've finished cleaning for today."

Wordlessly, the boy followed the girl. Satisfied her brother was no longer daydreaming, Shiro headed to calm feuer's base.The trip was a short one as the boy and girl made no detours and went straight for the base. They were quickly let in, greeted by the ever present bartender and led to meet the boss. While the normal members of calm feuer usually never meet or even report to the boss directly, the twins were one of the few to do so, or rather, allowed to. 

A light knock was heard before Shiro threw open the doors and entered the room with her brother in tow.

"Ohayo boss!" She cheerfully exclaimed before plopping herself onto a chair. The lady behind her stumbled around in shock at seeing the little girl just barge into the boss's office.

"Ohayo Shiro. You at the door, you can go now. Remember to close the door." He called out.

"Yes sir!" The woman practically shrieked as she left the area.

"It's always so lively when you're here, Shiro.  So,did you finish cleaning? I presume that's why you're here."

"Shiro finished! But, the people there were so boring, it wasn't fun at all! That's when Shiro had a brilliant idea! Since onii-chan never did any cleaning and Shiro is bored, onii-chan shall do the cleaning from now!"

"Oh, is that so? Then we'll be seeing what weapon your brother uses?"

"Yes! Onii-chan is amazing!"

" Hmm...then, I can expect things from you, Kuro. Well, I'll see you all tomorrow when you report again."

Shiro pushed herself off the chair."Bye bye boss! We'll see you again tomorrow."

On their way home, Kuro asked, "Are you sure it's okay? Showing them my weapon?"

"It's fine! Even if they know what you can do, they can't do anything about it. After all, onii-chan is too powerful!"

-----------------------------------------------------------

MUAHAHAHA I just- well, before I started writing this chaper anyway, got a brilliant idea! It's to do with what they can do and how it all works. I got them mostly worked out! Yay!!
