Semi-Hiatus

“Ya call that a punch? More like a goddamn love tap jackass.”

Oh, that one was good. Kiba started laughing before hauling his hand against the betas shoulder. He knocked him to the ground in a matter of seconds, his foot coming down upon his skull, squishing his nose into the dirt. His grin only got wider, his blue eyes downcast watching the black hair of his brother entangle with dirt.

“Oh is that so?” He humored more to himself than anything. He hummed a bit, simply finding pure enjoyment with toying with his brother. “And where did you receive this lovely little invitation? Humans? Was it written in the clouds like a love letter? Aw~” 

Placing his hands against the ground Ren forced himself up despite the pressure on his lead, one hand coming up and forcing his brother’s foot off.  “What does it matter to you? Either way it doesn’t involve ya presently so I’d rather get it done ‘n over with.” Besides Ren was pretty sure he was already late.

Well… Maybe not his permission personally. 

He couldn’t stop the smirk from spreading across his features, his fingers drumming against the inside skin of his arm. His younger brother sounded feisty. Which mean’t he was agitated for whatever reason. Kiba was silently interested with what it could be. Could it be him? A possibility. That would be way to delicious if it was. 

“Get goin’ where?” He grinned mocking his accent, sounding disturbingly like the other wolf. He flicked a bit of his black hair against his face, using his open palm to push it back. Oh if his father could see them now, direct carbon copies. Nearly made him sick at the thought of another form of his father. Himself included. “And as a matter of fact, you may not need my permission, but you will need my darling leaders…”

“I don’t need an escort to go see him. I can find him on my own. Ain’t like he’s not expectin’ me.” For whatever reason. Ren was pretty sure the messenger said, but he only heard that he was summoned by the devil himself and that could mean so many different things---- none of them good.

Honestly Kiba would be the better person to ask as to why he would be called here. It was quite the travel and there had to be a reason. Unless of course it was just to waste his time and pull him away from his Alpha. There was also that possibility.

“You seem to be a long way from home…”

The beta yawned, his tongue temporarily flicking against white fangs, taping to an inconclusive pattern. He rested on the backs of his heels, feeling parts of his skin press against the tree behind him. He didn’t have to look back to know who the intruder was, the scent was all too familiar for that. Still the thought of it all, was amusing. Surprising? Not in the slightest. But amusing all the same.

“Well? Did you come all this way to stand there and gawk? If that is the case it seems like a distinct waste of time on your part?” He was mildly curious. The younger wolf couldn’t be all that stupid, he had to know which boundary he had crossed. For they were no longer within the northern boarder.

Yet there he was in the flesh standing before him, Ren rolling his eyes at his words. Joy. Kiba had probably been waiting for him for quite some time. His arms laced over his chest letting out a sigh as he continued to speak. As if he really cared why Ren was here.

          [ ✉ ┆➺ wolf-boy ] ok, so! i’m leaving school in a bit.           can you pick me up in half an hour? guess we need to           talk about this personally

          There was definitely something wrong. Minako was quite used to Ren leaving her all the time to take care of his wolf demon tribe business, back then when they used to date. However, since he was deliberately telling her it was not the case, the should be a reason he was willing to HIDE from her. There was something about people lying to her that made Venus quite anxious and annoyed. How could there be something Ren wouldn’t trust her enough to talk about it? 

         [ ✉ ┆➺ wolf-boy ] y’know what? you got me super          worried. come pick me up now, i’ll just shower at ur          place

         And that wasn’t a request anymore. That was an ORDER. If the wolf didn’t show up in ten minutes, Minako was going to find him wherever he was. So many disturbing thoughts crossed her mind at the pace she made her way towards the school gates with her heart palpitating as loud as if it had suddenly moved to her throat. 

Crap, he set her off. He really needed to learn to text this girl when things weren’t going well in his life. She always worried about him and quite frankly he just wanted to leave town. Guess he could put it off a little longer, that should be fine.

[ Text Message : princess yer worryin’ fer nothin just relax ... but fine i’ll be over shortly meet me out front. sure ya can bail on class? ]

After his message was sent off he collected his keys and jacket, leaving his place. He figured she would be able to make up some excuse and gather her things by the time he got there. There wasn’t even a way he could explain what was going, he would have to think of something along the way. Knowing Minako she was probably thinking the worst case scenario. Like what? Meh. He hadn’t the slightest idea.

          Minako had been quite BUSY those days. It was very difficult for her to  focus on anything whenever there was a VOLLEYBALL championship to be won. The amount of dedication required was even greater since she was the CAPTAIN of her team and that other group of girls she was supposed to LEAD demanded a lot from her, almost as much as the sailor senshi. 

           Keeping her head on the game that way almost made the blonde feel like being an ORDINARY teenager again. Peaceful moments like that ones had to be seized to the maximum for the opportunities the senshi had of living regular lives were SCARCE.

          That particular Friday, however, Minako was feeling rather stressed. The team hadn’t been that productive that afternoon, and the girl was completely EXHAUSTED. Nevertheless, after the training when she reached for her phone in her backpack, ready to reply to Hotaru’s SnapChats, there was some other message from someone who’d always make her SMILE.

           When she managed to read the whole content of what Ren had written, the blonde could only feel her lips then curving into a worried pout. He was leaving TOWN again? That only meant something was off!

Part of him was surprised to hear her answer--- didn’t she have volleyball practice tonight or something? He couldn’t recall. It was difficult for him to remember her schedule, she always seemed to be doing something. Ren pulled out his phone from his pocket, small smile coming over him.

[ Text Message : appreciate it thanks can’t bring them where I’m going ]

There was a notable delay as he debated how to answer her second half of the text. How did one explain this to a human? It wasn’t something they went through. He sighed softly, fiddling with his phone before he finally decided to respond to her.

[ Text Message : no they’re fine its personal, hard to explain things are fine, promise. Leaving today or tomorrow not sure yet ]
