A Shiki Story

Seventh Killing Spirit

Violet

That Yuuki boy noticed them watching the two as they slipped away without their presence being noticed. She saw the younger boy frantically hugging Yuuki while crying from the looks of it. They followed the three cry babies, well the younger looking two were the cry babies and they heard Yuuki say they would dig up Megumi's grave to see if she rose up or not.

"Hah !" Tatsumi said softly. It appeared Tatsumi thought something up or he was thinking of kidnapping the three for food. The kidnapping idea had just popped up in her head.

An incisive banging was coming from a fresh grave. She could hear the annoying choking as she and Tatsumi were digging up the grave. Tatsumi was once again wearing one of his jumpsuits to point this out but this one was purple. Tearing the door off Tatsumi said with a friendly face,"Hi !" Sticking her head she saw it was the ugly and scrawny looking teen who looked like he did not have much blood in his body when he was alive. 

Still choking Tatsumi said,"You lost your voice, right ? Don't worry. There's a way to it." Hearing this the new Shiki clutched his throat. "When you speak, do it like your breathing," She advised. The tiny pupil eyed youth seemed to panic even more after hearing this. "Don't worry, Masao Murasako. You'll get used to it soon. Here," Tatsumi said giving a hand.

Jumping out of the hole the two of them had dug she noticed that the newbie looked back at his grave and started the flay around like a fish out of water. "Calm down !" Tatsumi yelled, he seemed to have also gotten tired of the slow witted Shiki. "Thats right.This is your grave. You died."

"I...Died ?" the newbie choked. "Hah," Tatsumi sighed. "Like I said, calm down and listen to me. You came back to life." Tatsumi once again sounded friendly as he retrieved his shovel. "Came back to life ? Did I rise up !?" The dumb Shiki asked. I might end up killing this one, she thought to herself.

Helping Tatsumi with burying the grave she raised a eyebrow at the moron who would most likely get himself killed. "Sounds like that's what you call it in this village, huh ? You came back to life...But you aren't human." After a bit more annoying choking Tatsumi looked back and asked,"Then, would you prefer to go back in there ? Its not like everyone comes back to life, you know."

The moron shook his head at this. "Your nephew, Hiromi Murasako, didn't come back to life. Now you smell the sweet scent of decomposition in the air, right ?" Tatsumi went further in explanation, only few people rose up which made them special. Being a Jinrou made you more special to, she thought added.

Most likely this idiot would be just another common Shiki. Once Tatsumi finished warning him about the sunlight and other stuff did she jump away as Tatsumi slammed the pole into the ground with his shovel. "Yay, time to go to the Yamairi Area," she cheered. They had the newbie go into one of the covered houses. He seemed worried when Tatsumi brought up the newbie's new diet, Human Blood.

It was the same how people ate pork and beef, Tatsumi pointed out. "Do you wanna try ?" She asked moving one of the inside sliding doors to reveal a weak child. They had kept the kid weakened so he could do no harm while most of the Shiki's slept. "I....I don't need it," She heard him stutter.

Looking/ glaring at the moron with their golden wolf eyes Tatsumi said,"Then do you just wanna leave here ? If you do when morning comes, you'll fall asleep and be burned to death." Shaking his head moron said,"No, no !"

She let Tatsumi dominate the idiot. "I'm special even among our people. I can stay awake during the day, and I'm okay with sunlight. I can throw you outside after you go to sleep," Tatsumi growled along with a few more death threats. Once finished Tatsumi's attitude changed a 360.

"Well, it means you can't be selfish like humans forever. Look over there. You see that glass in the corner of the room ?" Tatsumi said pointing at the glass full of blood. Everyone was hesitant at first so they usually had a glass full for the newbies. Shoving moron inside and gave a wave before she shut the sliding door.

Skipping out of the house she let Tatsumi continue to talk to moron.

Later she stole from the Village Office the recent Death Reports and Forms due to Sunako's orders. Tatsumi or her could have done it and now the Government could not get involved into their secret affairs.

"Look what I have~" she sang as she skipped inside the dinning room as Tatsumi was serving the family. "Well done Violet," Sunako said with a smile. She burnt all the files after she was done reading them.
