Death Sword Scroll (May get Mature)

Shiro nodded. This place was too dangerous for Misaki anyways. He did not want the younger to get in any more trouble. Picking Misaki up against the boy's will, Shiro carried him home.

Tsukiakara returned to the blacksmith. Maybe if he worked hard he could get the sword done before the other two woke up.

Shiro fell asleep next to Misaki, too tired to change to the couch.

Tsukiakara came back the next morning with his new sword in one hand and a bag full of breakfast treats in the other. He set them both on the table and went into the room to wake Misaki up.

For once Shiro was sleeping calmly. He had used the day before to find what Tsukiakara had been talking about. Not a doctor - but sleeping pills. Misaki woke up when Tsukiakara entered but Shiro didn't.

“There’s some breakfast on the table Misaki. After you get done eating do you want me to take you to school.”

"Sure", Misaki said. He was not going to tell the elder about those boys in school. He wanted to meet Muki and he did not want anyone to save him again. He was going to get really strong and beat those guys up.

Tsukiakara was glad that Misaki was willing to go to school without using the candy bribe. He went into the table were the bag of food and his new sword laid.

"Is your sword finished?", Misaki asked, curiously. "Will I get a sword one day, too?"

“Yep here it is” He picked it up to show to Misaki, “and sure if you really want one.”

"Cool!", Misaki exclaimed, meaning both. "Oh and by the way, isn't Shiro getting up today?", Misaki asked, while trying to touch the sword.

“Nah, he needs his sleep. He hasn’t been able to for a while. I’ll wake him up later.” He said with a smile.

Misaki nodded. He knew about Shiro's nightmares and wondered why they weren't happening right now but he did not ask. It was good as it was. "I need to get going, I don't want to be late", Misaki lied. He did nor mind being late actually but he feared that if he was, attention was on him and he would not be able to sneak out of class.

“Well ok. Let’s go.” He took Misaki outside and they walked to school.

Misaki was glad Tsukiakara was coming with him. As long as he was in company, the other boys wouldn't dare attacking him. During assembly Misaki tried to find Muki, hoping she was there and remembered their plan.

“Hi” a sweet familiar voice said behind Misaki.

Misaki beamed at her. "Hi", he said, turning around.

“Are you ready?” She asked.

Misaki nodded, moving closer to her. "Will we go now?", he asked.

“I just saw the teachers do attendance so we can go right now. But they lock the doors to the playgrounds at the start of the day so no kids can get out. But luckily there’s another way. There’s a window in the girls bathroom that we can use to sneak out. Let’s get going before the teachers notice something. She went to the door and cracked it silently open so the she and Misaki could get out into the hallway.

Misaki followed her but he did not like her plan. "I can't go in there! I'm not a girl", he said, running after her.

“It’s all right we won’t be in there long.” They got to the front of the Girl’s Bathroom. “Coming?”

Misaki hesitated. Then he nodded and followed her inside, surprised that it looked just like the boy's bathroom.

“Looks like no-ones here.” She said as she went over to a window. It was small only small children would be able to squeeze through it. Muki went through it with ease and was waiting outside for Misaki.

Misaki was used to climbing and squeezing into small spaces so he had no difficulties getting outside. "Won't they notice we're gone?", he asked her, when he had caught up with her.
