Safe and Sound [Devimega AU]

Chapter 6

Ichimatsu was sitting upon on a roof, hugging his knees. He was on the roof of a church. It was around almost night. Jyushimatsu still wasn't back yet. He was a bit worry. Calm down, dumbass. He's Jyushimatsu, he knows how to take care of himself. His purple eyes looked down at the ground. But if he doesn't then I could always come around and protect him, y'know. He was snapped out of his thoughts when he heard someone yell and noticed someone.

"Hey! Ichimatsu! Ichimatsu! Ichimatsu!" called who appeared to be Jyushimatsu. The grim reaper stared. Something felt off. He ignored it however, and hopped off the building to the ground where Jyushimatsu was. "Jyushimatsu, where have you been? It's near night. You know I don't like you wandering on your own in darkness," Ichimatsu reminded. Jyushimatsu grinned. "Heh heh, sorry, nii-san!" He knocked his head, sticking a tongue out. Ichimatsu would have wondered why he was behaving strange, but the fact that Jyushimatsu's voice called him "brother" distracted him.

Oops, Osomatsu thought. I forgot this Jyushimatsu isn't supposed to know. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. He just continued to giggle. Usually whenever Jyushimatsu laughed or something, he covered his mouth with his sleeve, a thing Osomatsu wasn't aware of. Ichimatsu took A closer look. And then, he realized his eyes were red rather than their sunny yellow. "Hey, what's up with your eye?" he asked.

"Shit! I mean, fuck! Mission blown! Well, might as well let the cat out of the bag (lol). I possessed your brother," confessed Osomatsu. Ichimatsu immediately pulled out his scythe, making the devil only grin more. "Hey hey, remember that I'm still in your brother's body," Osomatsu said with hands raised. "After all, what kind of brother are you to let this poor kid down twice?"

Ichimatsu blinked, confused. Osomatsu couldn't possibly know, could he?

"I don't know what the hell you're talking about," he claimed, ready to attack. "Psh, as if. But that's a story for another time. Would you really risk killing Jyushimatsu as well? Plus, you can't kill the devil. I mean, you can, I guess, but then you'd just be the next devil you see. I don't know if Jyushimatsu would want you to be the ruler of all darkness. You certainly don't want to see me possessing his corpse either. I suggest you leave me alone, maybe fuck off, maybe kill yourself, because I want you to get the hell out of my way. I've got places to be and shit to do."

Osomatsu smiled. It irritated Ichimatsu how he acted innocent with his little brother's form. He let out a growl. But the devil was right. He couldn't do anything. As long as he was in Jyushimatsu, the grim reaper remained helpless. This was something for of in the department of an exorcism or something. And maybe make Osomatsu go away, he was annoying as hell.

Then he had a thought. Perhaps a clergy member in a high position could provide assistance to rid the nuisance evil. Osomatsu walked past him, in the angel's body. Ichimatsu sent him a glare.

"Oh," he began. "By the way, forgot to mention." The red eyes male sent him a taunting grin. "Your Jyushimatsu is actually much stronger than you." Ichimatsu's eyes widened but still had their droopy look. He wanted to persist and question him. But it was too late.

He was gone.
