Chapter 5 - Sibling Squabble

Shira Pov:

You boys must be kidding me, Alfred you cannot be serious.. what is the meaning of this? oh my goodness! I almost forgot how incredibly annoying my brothers can be, who came up with this dumb idea and I really would like to know what planet the person head is to come up with such an inconceivable thing.

What gave you both the notion that I will for whatever reason agree to this?

Shira will you at least give them a chance on this, I believe they just want the best for you, Damien interjected.

I can't believe this, Damien you too?

So now you three are in on this.. you at least should be on my side, can't you see how impossible it is for me to allow someone breathing on my neck every seconds of the day?

I can protect myself!!

We both know how well it ended up the last time, Lance said.

If only my eyes can kill, I don't think Lance will be existing right now…

I was caught unawares and unprepared last time, I don't need a bodyguard for Kitty sake!

Shira, you know I love you right? And it will literately kill me if anything happens to you, that is why I came up with this even when I know you will not like it, Alfred sniffles, and is that a tear... 

What is happening here, why is a tear dripping down Alfred's face.. Common! What sort of emotional blackmail is this, and I can see by the stupid look on Lance face that this was not previously rehearsed, it must have been a quick thinking on his part to make me give in, he must be quite desperate to resort to this, oh goddess help me.

Alfred, will you stop that liquid coming out of your eyes, it does not suit you.

I will stop when you say Yes to the bodyguard.

Master please don't give in.. I can't agree to that Pillow guy following us around everywhere! I heard Zozo agitated voice in my head.

Now this is tricky, not Alfred looking at me with those puppy eyes which looks really weird by the way, Lance also looking at me with that Stupid face and Damien with those pleading eyes, even Zozo is not helping matters, I feel cornered.

Alright I agree.

I will give this a chance but kindly inform him that he should be as undetectable as possible, I should almost forget that someone is actually following me around.

Oh! This cannot be happening.. Master I told you that I don't like that Pillow guy, he creeps me out and the fact that I cannot read him makes it much worse, Zozo said angrily.

Zozo calm down, we cannot be unreasonable now can we, Alfred must have been quite desperate for him to resort to a crying fit, they caught me off guard, let's just give in for now okay and see how it goes, and who knows the Pillow guy might even give us a good reason to send him away from us, let's be good girls now okay.

I give up, you all just make my job more harder, Zozo said dramatically.

So now boys, since you have gotten what you wanted, can I go to sleep now?. I believe my dinner is well digested now, note the sacarsm.

Yes Sister, you may go now Alfred said giving me a big hug, I love you.I love you too my stubborn Sister, Lance joined in.

Damien also try coming closer but he get the look I gave him, as he step right back.

Yeah yeah, I love you too.. have a restful night.

 I can feel Damien behind me as I walk down to my room. Why are you following me? Go to your room and stop following me, You bad bad person.. I said giving him the evil look.

How can you not have my back!

Shira, am sorry.. don't be mad at me. you know I will always root for you, it's just I believe the bodyguard idea will be good for you. And he is even a Crow, you will even barely notice he is there.

Now think about it, annoying Damien breathing down your neck every second of the day and a Crow that you will barely notice, which seems more appealing to you now?

Is that even a question? Please give me my annoying Damien any day.

I think what I just said turned him into a wide mouthed statue.

Damien close your mouth before an evil spirit enter inside.

Shira did you learn all this fatal attack from your sojourning in the human world. they are quite dangerous

Can you give me a hug now so I know you are not angry at me anymore?.

Okay then come meet Mama, I said spreading my arms wide open, I can't stay mad at him for long. I love being in his embrace.

I love You Kitty I heard Damien said as he showered me with kisses all over my face..

Now Damien don't be weird, go away shoo.. go sleep now am tired.

Alright Kitty good night.. see you tomorrow.

What is this place? How did I get here? The last thing I remember was me lying on my bed and now am in this place that seem like a corridor with no end in sight.

Zozo are you here with me, I cannot feel her but I just wanted to be sure.. what exactly is this place and why am here, I kept walking and walking till I get to this door.. I can hear weird noises coming from the other side of the door, like voice of multitudes overlapping, tormented cries.. I can almost feel their pain..

I tried pulling at the door but it was not budging, my powers don't work here for whatever reason.

Do you really want to know what is on the other side of that door? I turned around to see where the voice is coming from but it seems like the voice is coming from everywhere in the corridor..

Who are you? Show your face!

There is silence for what seems like an eternity..

Patience darling in due time, I am no foe.. but I must warn you that you are not ready for what lies beyond that door, you should not have been able to come here yet, you are not ready..

Go now and we shall see each other soon.

I felt a force beyond my control pulling at me and the next thing I woke up to see Zozo staring down at me with concern on her face.

What just happened? Where did you go? I just felt a force pulling me out of your body and you seem to be in some kind of trance.

This is not good, this has never happened before.. what is the meaning of this? no force should be able to pull us apart, we are one. Master this is really strange, I don't like this one bit.. Zozo said in a panicked voice.

I am scared as well, this just don't make any sense at all, what does that dream means and what is that place? I think it's time I paid a visit to the Old man.
