"So to review: Mallow-san is now your chosen master as she lives in the room and in your sense of loyalty to this human you saved her from hitting the corner of the wall" Reiji clarifies pushing the glasses further his bridge of his nose. 

Turns out Mellow appearance is a shocking discovery as it was to me as it is to the vampire brother as we're all now here in the living room skipping breakfast before going to school. I don't remember the incident much but when my eyes fluttered back open Subaru was shouting some things which alerted the rest f his siblings and now we're here.

"In abbreviation yes" Mellow replies with me seating beside in the couch drinking some hot tea offered. Or to be more precise just letting the steam rise to my face my hands cupping the mug for extra warmth. 

"Mallow-san why did you not inform us of this last night?" Reiji questions me as if he no recollection of what happened last night.

"I was pulled through a door, talked to a doll that had a stricken resemblance to me" I reply drily taking a sip of the hot liquid that immedaintly starts burning my tongue.

"It's surprising through how similar you guys look" Laito comments with a lustful glint in his eyes still smiling as usual.

"It's the way Forgotten Angels work they take from after their contracted masters" Reiji explains a little bitterly. 

"Hmm...so this is how Mallow will look when she's older?" Kanato questions.

"Essentially, my form is just a highly accurate depiction of what she may look like in the years to come not taking into account environment or accident she will or will not be involved" I suck on tongue trying to dimming the acute pain in my mouth.

"Heh..if this is what she look like huh?" Ayato smirk puts me at unease as he drinks up the sight of Mallow dressed in what is a mix of traditional Japaneses kimono designed into a western dress puffed with layers. While it's not revealing in any sort of way both Ayato and Laito eyes draw right above her bosom where the layers of clothing separate around her neck living a clear view of her nape. Now learning the disadvantages of having a spirit taking a smilar form of me I forecfully clear my throat drawing attention.

"Won't we be late if we continue to chatter?" I question them with a grim face. Any expression other then this would require my whole life source at the moment. Reiji eyes narrow at th two of us 

"Very well, I'll expect a more thorougher analysis if the situation once we return" He shifts his glasses before striding out of the room in quick speed, I raise an eyebrow. How much more does he want to know?  

Following suit I stand up scrunching my eyes at the dizzy spell that hits for a second before adjusting back to normal.

Yui Pov 

"Master are you alright?" Lila nods meekly her face seeming more pale then usual. Saying a few words back to the spirit identical to Lila it nods glancing over the room for a second it's eyes narrowing for a second before a strong wind blows and it disappears. 

Was I imagining this or did it just stare at me for a second? I watch as Lila strides pass not even glancing at me for a second as he makes her way to entrance. Did they take too much blood from her? Ayato did mention Reiji and she looked like she was in a bad position yesterday. 

I scrunch up my eyebrows at the disorder of my brain and heart, even though I know what happened to her was undeserving of anyone I can't seem to care. The heavy clouds that loomed over since Lila arrival getting more thick and grey by the hours cleared away for only a second when she saw Lila passed out by her door last night. 

"No it's not like that" I murmur to myself hurrying after the others making sure not to get a scolding from Reiji. 

Scurrying into the car by Ayato as per usual I glance over to Lila sitting between Shuu and Subaru. The memory of Lila sleeping form on Subaru shoulder slips back into my mind, even now she has her eyes closed in rest. She never did nay work at the church she only spends her time in the attic asleep or slinking around the church like Father said. She's not even my real sister. 

FLASH BACK 

"Nee father why aren't I pretty?" The small child asks her bond locks in their natural twisted loose locks her reby red eyes filling with tears. 

"Yui you are pretty, who told you otherwise?" The concern male dressed in black cloak and white collar crouches down next to his adopted daughter. The girl looks down her fists grabbing onto the pink dress biting her lip.

"Come on my child, you can tell me anything" He strokes her hair gently peering into her eyes "You trust me don't you?" He asks quietly, the girl nods quickly opening her mouth after moment of hesitation.

"I-It's..just t-that everyone always calls Lila pretty" She whispers so quietly that she barely heard it herself. Luckily being a vampire hunter raises the normal human hearing awareness proving useful to the male, his eyes sharpening at her words. 

"That 'girl' isn't pretty" He states factually, Yui jumping slightly hearing the harsh tone in her father voice for the first time.

"B-but the guys are always staring at her and the teacher always say how pretty she is. She even got chosen to be snow white for the play" Big warm tears roll down the child cheeks, she doesn't understand why Lila always gets the attention. Why is she pretty? 

"Why can't I be pretty too?" She cries, she really wanted to play snow white, but everyone choose Lila because she has white skin and black hair. 

"Yui" The man speaks with strong conviction gazing at his child brushing a few tears back "I know you wanted that role but the teachers probably thought that since she has black hair that she was a good choice"

"Then why can't I have black hair too" Then she could get to play snow white.

The priest goes silent for a moment trying to think of a way to stop her tears "Yui your pretty but you more cute then pretty"

The blond lifts her head up at the words a few tears still rolling down "Cute?" 

"Yes, all the sisters say how lucky they are to have such a cute helper.The teachers probably saw you as too cute to be a pale sleeping princess" he reasons with a big smile, her eyes widen.

"Really?!"

"Yes, all the worshippers always compliment me for having a cute little daughter, Mr.Nago says that you keep getting cuter every times he sees you"

Her eyes widen in happiness "I'm cute?" She asks excitedly the priest nods his head smiling wiping the left over tears.

"Even cuter then Lila?" she ask with her eyes sparkling.

"You haven't heard anyone calling her cute have you?" He says stroking her head gently, Yui shakes her head her cheeks heating up in happiness.
