"Who are you?" You asked staring at the person anger boiling through your body
He had black hair and bandages on his mouth. His eyes were two different colors and his haori was striped with white and black.
"Obanai Iguro." He said plainly "can I come in?"
"Oh! Yes TENGEN YOUR COLLEAGUE IS HERE!" You yelled and towering over the poor hashira you stepped aside letting him into the house ---
Soon an argument was issued, leaving a frustrated Tengen and Obanai storming out, Makio slamming the door behind him. You tried your hardest to calm him but alas your efforts were fruitless, Tengen was still angry.
You kissed his forehead and went into the kitchen with Hina, Makio, and Suma.
"Obanai...always comes here looking for a fight" you huffed
"Ever since Tengen almost lost his hand... he has been coming here trying to get him out of retirement," Suma said
"I swear if he comes back again I'll kill him!" Makio said angrily
"Don't worry that snake won't be coming back" Hina replied chopping vegetables aggressively --
You frowned at Tengen. He barely touched his food. He pushed his plate away and stood up, he went to walk away but you caught his wrist. Using all your demonly strength to keep him in place you spoke through a clenched jaw
"Why haven't you touched your food? do you not like it?" You smiled
"Um-i-well i-" he stuttered, looking down at your small form intimidated by your strength
"Sit down and eat my love, I can't have you sleeping on an empty stomach" Hina gleamed with a hint of aggravation
"Yes dear, we could ever let you go hungry," makio said, an irk mark appearing on her forehead
Suma smiled lovingly in contrast to our frustration, Tengen sat back down and you pushed his plate closer.
"Should I feed you?" You asked placing your hand on his back He let out a shaky breath, as sweat misted his brow. He nodded
Taking the chopsticks in your free hand to feed him
"Does it taste good?" You asked
A light pink hue lit up his cheeks. "Yes" he spoke
"Wonderful!" You smiled "now. Feed yourself." --
The next morning you woke up in cold sweat, gasping, and sitting straight up. You ran to the bathroom, hyperventilating. You felt as if you were going to die, you heard frantic knocking on the locked door
"Please go away" you moaned in agony
Their words became muffled as your eyesight went black and your mouth tingled as blood ran down your face, your nails pulled your nail bed with intense force. Holding back your natural form is beginning to take a toll on you. Your skin ripped as bone pushed through, and with a bang, you hit the floor. A ringing began in your ears as you opened your eyes.
"Y/n. I'm disappointed." A masculine voice told
You groaned as your vision swung
"Hiding your natural for all these years," he said, "even after you found people to love and expect you, it's quite saddening."
"Father" it clicked. That's who the voice was
"I might just have to bring you back home, you couldn't hide forever and now you hurt." He expressed
"No. I, I need to protect them" you whimpered
"Then. Let. The. Beast. Win." He announced
"I can't. I won't" you murmured
Your vision was fading in and out, your father's image more and more blurring. You felt strong hands lifting you, carrying your bridle style. ---------------------------------------------------
