Koga Oogami

Elres jumped lightly at the harsher tone and looked, well at least tried to, at the other. For him it didn’t matter if he moved or if the other moved him. It still hurt the same no matter how gantle the other was. He let out a few small whimperes and let out a heavy breath as he was sat down.

He leant the back of his head against the wall behind him and lied it down on his own shoulder as he looked blankly forward. He still breathed heavily and somewhat was fighting to don’ t pass out. He didn’t move at all, either too tired or too hurt or even to scared to do so.

When the water bottle was handed to him he took it with his shaky hands, slowly lifting his head up and drinking a little bit of the water, sighing in relief as it began helping him from inside. He looked down at himself and began putting a little bit of water at each of his wounds as they slowly began healing.

When he ended he gave the water bottle away. It didn’t heal much but it healed enough for him to don’t need help from any doctor. Rest should help now. “Th-Thank you…” he pamted out as he lied his head back down on his shoulder.

Watching the boy in front of him, Koga were already feeling weirdly anxious. He barely knew this guy, why were he being so worried about some stranger? It barely made sense to himself, but no matter what, he were definitely in too deep already. 

Adjusting his knelt position to lean his arms on his own knee, the stuck to observing the other for a moment. However the more he watched Elres, the more he were starting to think his injuries might have had him loose his mind. Drinking the water, sure thing. Everything seemed absolutely normal there. Water went in the mouth to be expected. However as the boy instead started pouring the water over his wounds Koga were gradually getting more confused. Yes he were aware that burns were usually treated with water. But not the kind that looked this severe, and when the actual burn had happened some considerable time ago. It seemed, to Koga, illogical to pour water over them. 

Elres swallowed and nodded lightly at the question. Yeah… He needed to drink. But it most likely will help him heal. He liked that his healing was so simple. At least he didn’t need to be stuck anywhere for long.

He looked at the other and just nodded. He was okay with being put down. He just needed some water. He took in a shaky breath and made a pained face when he tried to move. It hurt a lot.

He didn’t give up though. He was just tired… right? He could move. Come on. It was easy, right? He swallowed again and this time when he moved he let out a pained gasp. His whole body was shaking and barely moving. Great…

Koga didn’t actually need anymore confirmation than a simple nod. Making it plain as day needed to be done, and additionally entirely unnecessary for Elres to try and move on his own. He were still more than a little injured, and trying to move around would most likely just be plain stupid at this point. 

As he felt the shift in weight, a deep frown settled on his lips. Despite barely knowing anything about this boy, he had made the decision to take care of him. And he sure as hell wasn’t backing out of that now. Which was probably why his next reply came out harsher than intended. “Oi! Don’t ya try and move too much around. You better not be hurtin’ yourself more with this” 

following the bark of a response, the silver haired boy moved to set his companion down. crouching to lean him against a wall for support. Despite his way of speaking, he moved somewhat gently. really making sure Elres were properly seated before letting him go and turn to rummage through his bag for his water bottle. Knowing it was down there, somewhere. It was just a matter of finding- there! 

Elres swallowed and tried to stay awake. He waz so tired and it all made him just want to end this. He closed his eyes lightly. He was just listening when he felt that the other moved his head.

He slowly opened his eyes and swallowed. “No… D-Don’t… No hospitals…” he mumbled and looked around. He sighed and moved his head enough to look around. “W-Water…” he choked out as he tried to see if there was some around.

He hissed lightly when he moved a bit more than little. It really hurt. Everything. He then looked at the other. “Pl-Please…” His blood didn’t really look too normal. It was more… watery than people’s blood.

Those little words, were all the answer he needed. For a moment he wasn’t entirely sure where else to bring the boy. But eventually he settled upon just bringing him home. It seemed like the easiest of choices. 

At the mention of water, Koga raised a brow in question. Well it did make sense, he just hadn’t really thought that far at this given point. “Ya need something to drink? I think i have some water in my bag. Although I would have to put ya down then” 

Elres just let the other do whatever they needed. He was barely awake himself. He didn’t know how it was going to end for him but he wasn’t really sure he wanted to know it.

He didn’t react much to the person suddenly stopping in their track and he just kept his head when it was, hanging. He flinched at the loudness of person’s voice and didn’t say anything.

It wasn’t new to him to be beated up, but today was a bit too much. He felt like he was dying and everything was just a dream he really wanted to wake up from. He froze a little bit at the next comment and shook his head as muh as he could, which actually wasn’t that much.

“I… It’s impossible…” he choked out as he took in a deeper breath. It was so hard to stay awake now. “H-He’s too strong…” he added and swallowed hardly. He was in really bad condition…

Even though Elres were surely doubting the outcome of all this. Koga would make sure he made it out of it alright. Even though he barely knew him really. But now he were in too deep to simply give up. 

The reaction from the other didn’t go unnoticed to him. And he mentally cursed himself for a moment for being so loud. “Sorry..” He grumble and made a face of distaste. Seemed like he would actually have to take his surroundings into consideration for once before bursting into a fit of anger. 

But seriously, this guy’s family situation sounded downright horrible. And it made him think for a moment. Could he even take his to the emergency room? Or would this just cause more trouble? Craning his neck, Koga tried to get another good look at Elres, mostly to check if he were still awake. “Shit... Can you even go anywhere for help? You would need to explain who did this to you then... Would it cause you more trouble?”

As if Koga would ever do anything on the demand of the vampire bastard. Following his every whim were something that surely belonged in the past. Alright maybe he would go along to something, if it were for the greater good of Undead, but that was an entirely different story, which he did not intend to delve into anytime soon. 

However as he noticed Ritsu, more or less surrounded by a bunch of no name students, he knew he had to step in. As annoying as Ritsu could be, he were still considered a friend. And just who were he if he could not help out a friend in need? 

And scaring off those normal students turned out to be both easier and more satisfying than initially anticipated. Additionally it did wonders for his confidence as Ritsu ducked behind him. That was at least until he heard the dreaded nickname, causing his satisfied grin to instantly turn back into a frown. “If you’re actually thankful, then stop callin’ me that!” 

Elres took in a shaky breath as he just looked up at the sky, he felt like a bag of potatos being dragged around. He whimpered lightly as he moved his head a bit too much.

He didn’t react to the other saying his name. He opened his mouth and just waited as he tried not to pass out. Everything burnt and hurt so much. He just wanted to die already.

At the question his eyes lightly tried to move to see the other. “B-Brother…” he choked iut at first. It was hard to talk. “A… Attacked m-me…” he said and swallowed the feeling of about being to cough.

It wasn’t something new that Andavac attacked him. It was pretty much normal. But for now it was the worst attack that the other did.

Koga might have thought that he was carrying around a sack of potatoes as well, if it wasn’t for the little grunts of discomfort occasionally coming from Elres, that gave it away. Reminding him that it was in fact a human on his back. A very hurt one at that. 

Hearing the little attempt at speaking up, it made the silver haired boy stop in his tracks. Not wanting to miss any detail the other might be able to provide in this given situation. Although in this moment he praised his good hearing, otherwise he might not have been able to pick up on what he said. 

Getting over the initial stage of shock at the explanation, he went straight to anger. “What a fucking asshat!” Maybe he should have minded his words. But on the other hand when was the last time Koga actually thought before speaking? In reality he were blown away by the fact that someone could deal such damage to their own sibling. Did this guy seriously not have any respect for family? 

Elres tried to make as little noise as he could when they other helped him up. He feeling so weak and was scared that he will do something very wrong with his powers in this state. He looked up slowly and weakly.

He sighed and opened his mouth to speak. He had to at least try. “E-” he choked out but stopped at how quiet his own voice was. He shook his head lightly at himself and took a deeper breath. “Elres-” he choked out and tried to look back up at the person.

His eyes were barely moving as was his whole body. There was heat radiating from his burns still. It had to hurt. But what did such a bad damage to him? Was it possible to be human?

Being absolutely one hundred percent clueless as to what kind of powers this mystery stranger he had just picked up, possessed Koga still made it his own personal mission to bring him to whatever emergency care were closest. He were more than capable of doing a bit of first aid himself. But surely those injuries seemed to be way out of his own capabilities. It would be an absolute pain if any of it were to get infected. 

Hit attention perked at the sound of the tiny noise. At least he could still speak, which were a good sign. “Elres...hmm” Testing the name on his tongue, he gave a small shrug while trying to adjust his hold on the other. At least he now knew something about this stranger. Not that it would actually help him much but it sure was a start. 

Elres seemed still pretty much out of it. He didn’t seem like he was going to just die here and now. He was pale and burned all over. He grimaced at first attempt of helping him sit and whimpered at it.

He didn’t sat anything at thw other question though. Well, he didn’t say anything at all for now. He whined loudly at being attempted to sit up. But he managed to with some help of the person and himself.

He was a bit numb and out of it but he did his best to don’t pass out right now. Everything hurt so much and he just wanted to die already. He wished he wouldn’t try and fight Avdavac. It would have end ong time ago then.

Just what had he gotten himself into? The more his tried to help this complete stranger, the bigger a task it turned out to be. But he was too invested to back out now. Something had to be done. And surely he couldn’t ignore the horrible state he were in. Barely awake and responsive, and horrible wounds all over. Koga knew he would have to get him some help. 

“This is gonna be hurtin’ like hell, so don’t tell me I haven’t warned ya” Not expecting an answer, he sighed deeply for himself. Turning his back to him, he threw Elres’ arms over his shoulder, and with a great deal of effort, managed to get him onto his back. With a few deep grunts of effort, he adjusted his hold on him. 

It would be a long trip to the emergency room like this, but he would make it. He had the determination of a wolf after all. Koga was never to be underestimated. Craning his neck just enough to look at him out of the corner of his eye, he spoke up once more. “If you’re any sort of awake, you better tell me who you are” 

Elres was lying on the ground and tried to get some energy so he could go somewhere safer. When his body felt something against it, it momentally reacted with whine. It hurt really bad.

He opened his eyes lightly ready to attack but all he just did was a failed lifting of his arm. He geoaned and his head fell back against the floor. Blue eyes looking into golden ones, looking for mercy. Did something bad happen?

He grimaced and tried to move. Soon there was so splashing sound and there was a lot of water on the ground. He had his fist tight as he tried to keep the water together but it was really hard. He tried to attack but it just came out like a splash and then he just lose against them. The water disappeared quickly and he just laid in one place.

This was surely not how he had expected his day to go down. If only he had had the mind to simply leave and not get himself involved, then he wouldn’t have to deal with this pathetic lump on the ground. One thing was for sure. He would be an absolute ass if he left now. And that couldn’t be allowed. 

Kneeling down to get a better look at the sorry state the other was in, he did feel a pang of sympathy for the boy. He sure had been roughed up. And as soon as they eyes met it was far too late to turn around. Groaning loudly to himself he reached forward to try and help him into a somewhat seated position. 

“Are ya able to get up on your own?” He doubted he would even get a response, but if this guy were able to move, there were no way he would do all the work on his own. Getting visibly startled by the water, seemingly coming from nowhere, he wasn’t sure how to react. “Just what the hell is this?” The question were directed at the universe in general, since he had no clue as to what had happened. 

Koga’s brows shot straight up in response to Ritsu’s words. Seriously, when would he ever be prepared for anything that came out of his mouth. Somehow Ritsu always managed to catch him off guard. “What the fuck, Ritchii?” 

He then used the next following moments to simply stare at him in confusion, that was until he settled for simply shaking his head instead. Usually this kind of conversation would be reserved to the dead of night. But here they were. The sun having barely set, and they were already sounding like it were 3am. 

The sound of yelling made Rei pick up the pace, taking a shortcut by flinging himself over the rail of the stairs to land in the corridor downstairs. Attracting quite a lot of attention from the other students. Nothing he wasn’t used to though.  How and why this dog had gotten so attached to him he had absolutely no clue about. He did however know that it was troublesome. 

What Rei hadn’t calculated, was that the door to the student councill office was locked. Of course it was. Keito was way too thorough to let the door remain unlocked. Having already wasted plenty of time, Rei could hardly do anything but turn around, and force a smile on his lips. How… Unlucky.

Koga were fast. Even more so, since this were one of the very rare situations where he had left his beloved guitar in the light music club. It were far easier having to chase someone down, when you didn’t have to worry about your most priced possession. 

By the time he reached the stairs, he went straight for the handle and braced his hands on it as he leaned over to look down at the floor under. He practically had twinkles in his eyes. “wow.... That was so cool!” 

Rei truly were the coolest person ever! 

Knowing he shouldn’t attempt the same jump, he instead made for the actual stair. Skipping steps as he practically flew down them. Once he were within reasonable distance of the floor underneath, he jumped on the rail and glided the rest of the way down. Landing firmly on the ground before setting off again. He even sniffed the air once more to make sure of the direction. 

Good grief, that was a close one.

Having slipped out of the other door, mere seconds before the first year barged in. But he wouldn’t be safe for long. For some reason that guy could detect him from miles away. 

It didn’t take Rei long to leave the door behind, setting into a run down the corridor. Hoping to get to the student council office before this certain someone caught up to him again.

Of course the thought that maybe Rei didn’t want to be around him right now, didn’t cross his mind. Like seriously who wouldn’t want someone such as himself around? Of course he must have left accidentally. 

Which were why he were already sticking his head into the hallway in an attempt to spot him. Sniffing the air in an attempt to pinpoint which direction he had gone. The look on his face morphed from confusion to an all out grin in mere seconds of picking up a familiar scent. These instances he praised his keen sense of smell. 

Shooting Ritsu a pointed glare over his shoulder, Koga grumbled in response to his words. “This entire thing were your idea. Don’t push the blame on me” 

Koga spoke as he stepped away from the window he had been starring all too interested out of. It were late. Well into the night already. They most definitely weren’t supposed to be at the school at this time. But here they were. He would blame this entire idea on Ritsu easily. Who else would suggest a sleepover at school, than the very boy who spend most of his time there sleeping anyway. 

The suggestion to have the sleepover were giving in the open of their classroom, however Koga had no idea if any of their classmates even agreed to it. Since this whole thing had been put into motion, it were only Ritsu he had either seen or spoken with. 

Where did he go? He could have sworn he saw him. There were no reason for Rei to avoid him or run away. Well he must have just missed him.
