TOMURA'S FAMILY

"We got a report of missing people around this part of the city" Ayaka then took a sip of her tea, while I tried to drink mine, it burned my tongue and I brought out my tongue and fan in my hand. "We just want to know whether you saw anything unusual, that could help us?"

"I haven't, but I'm sure my sister has. And for the record, the missing people are from a family that lives next door" she informed. "Wait, while I get her"

She stood up and went upstairs leaving us, she came back about twenty to thirty seconds later, yes, I was counting it. She came back with her little sister, who she introduced to be Hinata and herself to be Amai.

"Hinata, how old are you?" I asked.

"I'm nine years old," she replied.

"Kakashi, that is not what we should be asking her," Ayaka said, yelling at me.

"If we don't know her name, how are we going to report back to Yaze" I said

"Okay, but leave the rest to me"

"Yeah, yeah"

"Hinata, your sister said you might have seen what happened?"

"Yes, the boy next door is actually my friend. His name is Tomura" Hinata replied. She looked shocked. I knew there was more to it, and she saw it all. "Tomura's father wasn't the type of father who supports his son's decision. It wasn't always like that, his father was a kind and gentle man who would do anything for his family. His mother was a human who works as an Executioner for the ASE. She was strong and praised for being a human but still have achieved so much. Tomura has pride in his mother, and always said he wants to be like his mother.

His mother was a human who works as an Executioner for the ASE. She was strong and praised for being a human but still has achieved so much. Tomura has pride in his mother, and always said he wants to be like his mother.

Everyone was happy till when his mother died, she was said to have died in a village far from Tokyo, during a protection mission a report about a boy possessed by a demon started killing everyone on sight and to protect the client she put herself in the way and was killed instantly. The demon was never killed.

When Tomura's father heard what happened he fainted and was taken to the hospital, the doctor said he had a heart attack and mental issue, as a result of it he blames Tomura for his mother's death.

He sometimes has fights with his father and ends up leaving home to stay at the Shibuya station, while sometimes he comes to me till the next morning I take him home and apologize to his father, sometimes the father accepts my apologies, while he angrily chases us out.

The doctor said it was the effect of his issue, he sometimes forgets about us, so I have to introduce myself and his son to him.

It was like that almost everyday till one night, Tomura had an argument with his father. It was about going to sword craft ASE academy in China, but his father disagreed and tore his admission letter.

Tomura angrily yelled at his father saying he wished his father was the one that got killed instead of his mother and left. I heard everything from my room window since it was opposite to his. I knew he must have gone to the station, since he didn't come to me. So I decided to go meet him.

When I got there, he was with someone. I couldn't tell who because I was far from them, but I sensed it was a demon. I decided to not go closer and keep my distance first. The demon was sitting on the same bench as him, I guess he was talking to him about his father, he stood up and gave Tomura a bottle and Tomura drank it at once. He then walked slowly into the shadow. I approached Tomura and asked about his friend, but he told me it was none of my business.

"It's none of your business Hinata, why are you always worried about me?" Tomura asked.

"You are my friend and I can't leave you now that you need me most" I replied calmly trying to calm him down.

I looked at the bottle on the floor, it wasn't the type of drink you'll see anywhere. The glass was transparent and there was red liquid inside.

" Tomura, what's inside this bottle you took a drink from?" I said, pointing at it.

"It's nothing"
