Undying Love of a Demon

Meet The Crew

Narrator's POV

It's been 12 years since then. Guts and Griffith never met again after that incident, and even though everything about how Griffith was their mother and Guts being their father and how they shouldn't come into contact with him at all  was explained to Ivory and Guss it had no negative affect either of them. They were excited that the man who saved them all those years ago was their father and wanted to be around him. Ivory had no connection to Guts at all but Guss on the other hand was secretly meeting Guts twice a week all those years.

"I really want to see him" said Ivory jumping into Guss's bed crawling to the other side to read his book. "Why are you always in my room!?! You have your own and who" guss yelled frowning at his twin who wasn't intimidated in the slightest by his yelling.
"Because your always cooped up in her when you are home... The servants wonder about you sometimes I have to reassure them by telling them your obsessed with dirty magazines from town it's really sad you know" he said shaking his head before sticking his nose back in his book. "What the fuck...Tell me your lying Ivory and Who?" He said putting his sword down and began crawling to Ivory with a glare that could stop a enraged bull. " I will say no such thing because I am not lying I was only looking out for my younger brother and Father of course I haven't been saying much but I really want to talk with him and I was sure you were going to go out of your way to see him." Said Ivory looking at his brother with sincerity in his eyes. Guss sighed before making locking his brown eyes in Ivory's Blue ones " Can you keep a secret?" He asked grabbing Ivorys shoulders.

"I don't know it depends" Said Ivory not helping his situation much. "Well I guess I can't tell you" Guss stated before turning his back on Ivory. "Tell me what?"..... Guss didn't respond "Guss tell me what!?!" Ivory shouted before pulling Griffith back towards where he was sitting. "I can't tell you you're not trustworthy enough for this one" he said said looking down at the bed before sighing. "Listen Guss I was joking about not keeping a secret I mean have I ever told a secret of yours before...if it's about daddy I feel I deserve to know I'm his son too" Griffith said in a stern voice. "Pfft....really when did you decide to call him daddy?" Guss asked throwing his head back laughing. Ivory's face was beet red " That's not funny you cow!" He yelled covering his face with his hands. "I'm going to see Dad and his friends tomorrow" he said in a stern voice. " what? Your kidding right I means theres no way you could have found his so quick less known getting him to meet with you" said Ivory looking confused with a pinch of hope in his eyes.

"That's where your wrong I've been meeting with father since I we were six. Twice a week I would sneak out each morning and he would train me and i m meeting with him tomorrow I finished training last week but the old man can't live without me I mean what can I say I have that affect on people" Guss bragged before noticing his heartbroken brother with tears in his eyes. "Ivory what's wrong man was it something I said" he asked pulling Ivory into his chest for a hug. "Why did he only accept you? Why didn't he want to meet with me also? Was it because I reminded him of mother or maybe he just hates me?" He gripped Guss's shirt crying his heart out. "No you idiot I begged dad to train me and he agreed. He asks about you every time I see him he really loves us I can tell but he couldn't risk getting found out before my training was finished. I'll tell you what how about you come meet with dad and his friends with me tomorrow?" He cooed rubbing Ivory's back.

"Sure. But what if he doesn't want to meet with me? What if he refuses me". Ivory said while rubbing his eyes

"Trust Me bro he won't he loves you man".

"Mom we're heading for town to meet some friends be back in a bit" said Guss. "Wait. Ivory's going too? Well it doesn't matter I'll feel better with you two together" Griffith said before kissing their heads and telling them to be safe.

"I'm nervous" said Ivory. "Wow who knew the emotionless Ivory who looks down on everyone could get nervous." Guss mimicked. "I never said I was emotionless and I do not look down on people." Ivory retorted. "Well whatever man we're here" Said Guss walking towards the pub.

"Guss!!! Where have you been?" yelled puck."Yeah and what you been up to twerp"asked Isidro mockingly "Same ole same ole... Where's dad puck?" Asked Guss
"He's in the back sleeping" said schierke walking towards Ivory. "And who is this young man?" Asked Schierke. "Oh you guys this is my older twin brother Ivory." Said Guss making everyone's mouth drop. "Hello I'm Ivory. It's nice to meet you all" said Ivory wearing an uninterested expression on his face. "So you finally came to see me Ivory" said a powerful husky voice from the back. Before a tall strongly built figure appeared in from of them. "Old man you finally woke up from your daily NAP huh?" Said Guss running towards his dad before being knocked to the floor in an instant. Ivory stood there frozen with fear of being denied by his father. "Can you not speak boy?" Said Guts before knocking Guss to the ground again but this time harder insuring he wouldn't attempt another sneak attack.

"B-brother are you alright!?!" Yelled Ivory running to Guss. "I'm fine Ivs this old man packs a punch but he wouldn't kill me" guss said wiping blood from his lip. "Are you sure?" Asked Ivory.
"So you can talk don't worry I beat the brat worse...he's kinda slow on the intake so he'll get back up regardless" Said Guts walking to Ivory once again.
"You barbaric fool! Don't you dare talk about my Bro-" said Ivory being cut off by Guss's grip on his wrist. "You say I'm a barbaric fool huh?" Asked guts in an infatuated tone. "No dad he didn't mean it" said Guss. "You be quiet Guss. I'm talking to my eldest son or should I say daughter by looking at his demeanor" Guts said with and mocking smirk on his face. "What did you just say about me" asked Ivory raising and eyebrow.
"I'm sure you heard me my beautiful daughter. You walk in afraid to speak to anyone then instead of charging at me head on for thrashing your brother you run to his side like a lovesick woman...Your just like your mother!" Guts yelled making Ivory flinch. "Maybe your going too far guts" said Isidro. "What's wrong Ivory no smart remarks?" Asked guts...Ivory just stood there with his head held down feeling the sadness that came along with being rejected by his father. "You know I really wanted to see you daddy....I missed you so much. Sure I look like a girl and I may not be as barbaric as you and my brother but...but I'm a boy daddy and if you can't accept that tell me now!!!" He screamed looking straight into Guts eyes with tears flowing out of his own. Guts said nothing. Ivory felt defeated and dropped his head before feeling himself being pulled into a strong embrace...it was Guts hugging him he didn't hesitate to return the gesture. "Of course I accept you Ivory. You are my child and I love you the way you are. You just remind me so much of your beautiful mother is all." Guts said releasing his son and planting a kiss on his Forehead. Ivory knew then he would never listen to his mother when it come to not seeing his father. They ate and drank the rest of the night away until it was time for them to go.

"That was fun. Those guys are hilarious I should have went to see Anna and the others but it's too late now" said Guss

"Yeah daddy was really nice...even though he scared the shit out of me at first"said Ivory before stopping behind a building to pee.

" Hey! Ivs! Hey Ivs how long are you gonna take moms gonna be pissed." He yelled walking around the building to check but found no one there. Ivory was missing and Guss panicked he looked everywhere before going back to the pub to let Guts and the crew know Ivory was nowhere to be found. Not long after Guts told Guss to let Griffith know that Ivory was kidnapped because he found a trail that led into the woods and was cut off in an empty space.
