The group's eyes widened. "Well crap! Where is he!?" They growled. Half of them didn't care, but the other half just muttered quietly, telling them what to do, like a consciousness.
"He craves blood. Shadow blood. And he knows you have some in you. I also have it, so for all we know, I can lure him away from you guys. He isn't as likely to kill me than he is to you." I uttered, staring at the gun. "This wouldn't have happened if he wasn't really close. Perhaps a mile away..." I said, talking about my gun hand.
"You can't. He's immortal. You'll only get killed in the process, and I don't want people to die on my behalf." I reply, my gun morphing back into my hand after chanting something. "If I let him have my blood, then he will leave you guys alone." I walked up to Satoshi, placing my hands on his shoulders, leaning close to his face. "Don't follow me. I mean it this time." I whispered. Giving him a light kiss on his lips. "I love you, Satoshi..." I added, then quickly flew up into the sky, a small feather landing at Satoshi's feet.
I flew high above the trees, searching for any signs that Shadow was near. Seeing an unusual amount of shadows covering a small clearing. I flew down, landing belind Shadow who stood in the middle of the clearing. I slowly walked up to him, gently placing my hand on his arm.
"And you found me..." I replied, managing a small smile. Taking my hand of his arm, I bowed to him. "Sorry I ran away... I've been a bad little bird..." I murmured, my collar visible to him, Property of Satoshi still engraved in it.
I suddenly went pale. "I-I'm sorry, master Shadow... I had to! I had to give my life to him to continue living so I could return to you! I'm sorry! Please- please take me b-back..." I started to sob, dropping down to my knees infront of him, my head down in fake shame.
Seeing the glint of metal in his hand, I glanced up at him. "I-if you d-don't mind me a-asking, but w-what is the k-knife for?" I whimpered, tightly folding my wings to my back.
"B-but I'll die i-if he dies..." I whimpered, placing my hand over his knife-weilding hand. "P-please don't... I promise I'll always be by your side if you don't kill him..." I start to cry.
The boy stared at her. "I-I can't kill you, indirectly or not... I won't..." He muttered. As much as he wanted to rip that boy into shreds, he wouldn't if it was for the life of his only 'friend', even though he treated her like a pet, and all around, he was a complete *******.
