5 Douma

*Asura's POV*

It's been 4 days since we escaped from the house and it's been absolutely horrible. We had nothing to eat and at this time period woman who left or escaped from their husbands were shunned by society.

There has been no one willing to help us. Hell mother even asked an old lady for help but she just looked at us with disdain like we had killed her grandchildren.

We can't even ask too many people for help as there was even a slight chance that someone might try to capture and sell us. 

But I had even more serious issues to think about.

'What to do? What to do?'

I was seriously conflicted right now because as much as I wanted to save Kotoha from her death, I knew that right now I was so weak that let alone Douma even an adult human will be able to kill me easily.

I can try to make noise or some other things but I can't even be sure if Douma had spies or worse demons living in that shitty cult of his.

What if I somehow saw a demon or something. Douma would literally slice us in half like tofu with a swat of his hand and all that will be left of us would be minced meat which will be eaten by him.

We were now running through a forest and guess what who showed up to help us, the upper moon Douma himself. 

He was wearing his cult crown in a red shirt with golden robes and fancy silver shoes. At first glance he looks like a noble gentleman that solves the problem of his citizens and loves them like his own family.

He approached us while waving his fan. His bright clothes and dazzling smile a sharp contrast to the bleak and deathly silent forest around us with nothing but the moon illuminating the night sky.

He had a happy smile on his face like a child who had found new toys. He said some sweet words and with nowhere else to go mother decided to just go along with him.

She had a hopeful smile on her face and I knew that as much as I liked to see her smile, she was being naive right now. I can't even blame her, she just wants her children to survive.

I could do nothing right now but cry my eyes out. After some time even Douma took notice of me and took me in his arms and carassed me.

I was scared shitless looking into his rainbow colored eyes. To an outsider he would seem like a father trying to console his child but to me he seemed like a butcher checking how fat his sheep was.

He carried me all the way to the building of his cult which was located deep in a forest near mountains.

" A curious one isn't he." He said while looking into my eyes.

7 Days later

Now I don't know if we are the babies or Douma is. He just keeps plays with us all day and leaves late at night.

Our mother sings us to sleep daily and I swear sometimes he falls asleep before me and Inosuke.

To anyone else this man would seem like the symbol of kindness. With his beautiful looks, charm and sweet tongue.

But I knew how much of a psycho he really is. This man is mentally broken on so many levels that I can't even comprehend what goes inside his head.

He isn't even that discreet it's just that anyone who sees his sweet smile can't imagine or think of him being such a cruel person.

I even saw his hand covered in blood one day and I closed my eyes in an instant . I don't want to raise his guard by even a single level. 

Right now I'm just enjoying lying beside my mother and Inosuke while trying to forget about what's going to happen in the future.

I know I can't save mother but I swear I'm gonna raze this fucking building to the ground in the future.

I feel even sadder while thinking about Inosuke he just smiles while looking towards me and mother. He holds my hand while sleeping and cries when he wakes up and sees that me and mother aren't there.

I know I can't save our mother but I promise I'll be a good brother to you Inosuke. I'm gonna love you to death little bro.
