The Heart of a Familiar

A/N : This story is going to explain why Tomoe became a familiar....I'm already crying.....GAH!!! I have to focus...... ( This may contain some spoilers on the Manga....Just saying.)

The Heart of a Familiar.....

                    Inari looked at Mikage and sighed. It had been two days since the incident with Yonomori and things had seemed to slow down. Tomoe was working and staying away from the gods as much as possible, Inari was still putting off his harvest.....And Mikage was sipping tea like always... It was quiet, and rainy. The sky let off a dark feeling that could not be denied. The only thing really clean was the air around the shrine. Mikage must have cleansed it. It was easy to breath. Even the birds still sang in the early fall rain. Sadly everything was off.....Everything.... Inari let out an irritated groan and looked at Mikage....He still wasn't getting this whole....Tomoe's a good person, Trust me...Thing. Everything the fox did ticked him off, or set him on guard. Sure he had his moments, but Mikage was a quiet person. Why would such a quiet person, take in such a violent, blood thirsty Killer?

" Mikage....:

"Yes Inari?"

" Why.....Why did you take in someone so......Wrong?...."

                    Mikage looked at him and let out a sigh, Then looking around for his Familiar, He turned his head towards Inari, " Tomoe is out making runs for me. This is the only time I can tell you...."

"I'm Listening...."

" It was Cold that day.......

Flashback......

                          Mikage sat on the rock he had selected. It was foggy...Really foggy. It was like winter with no snow, yet something told him to sit on this rock and think. He knew it sounded crazy, and maybe it was, but he was doing it. He looked ahead and extended his fan waving it forcefully in front of his face. Yep. Just gonna sit here and do nothing. That was the plan, and he liked it. He sighed and looked out across the land and froze.....Now sometimes he would see a human, or maybe and animal.....But this time....He saw.....BOTH?!?! Tilting his head to the side he saw a tall figure passing by him. The person stopped and turned his strangly marked face towards him, Shocking the god. His face......Was so.....Sad.....The way the demon walked proved he was in pain. His clothes were torn and covered in dry and fresh blood. His hair was matted and a white tail wipped back and forth behind him. A Fox...Huh? The figure just stared and his face was downcast, broken....and a bit defeated....

" What happened to You? Your covered in blood....."

" It is not my blood...."

" I see....."

                 Mikae was taken back by this...but also intriqued. This Fox needed help. His face proved it.

" If you have nowhere else to go, You can come to my shrine....And I will always be with you...

                     The fox looked at him surprised, and a bit thoughtful. He lifted his hand to his mouth in wonder, and his eyes grew wide. Mikage smiled....So.....So Innocent..... The fox took a step forward and paused....

" Always?"

 Mikage's heart wrenched....Oh, this fox was so lonely......" Always...."

Stepping forward the Demon dropped to his knees and laid his weary head on Mikage's lap. His breathing was rugged. There was an illness in him.... An evil Illness.... The fox buried his soft head into Mikage's lap and latched on with his clawed hands. Trembling....That's what this Fox was doing....He was trembling. Placing a hand on the Demons head, The god gently started stroking. Then he was interrupted by a ragged cough. The body underneath his hand shook violently, and then.....Thick...warm blood spewed out of the foxes mouth.... Drenching his kimono..... Mikage looked at the foxes face and noticed a dark spiral line wrapping around his body. A Curse? The Fox winced and looked up at the god appologetically....Mikage sighed and swiped at the Foxes lip with his handkerchief, " It's alright.....May....May I ask for your name, Dear Fox...."
