[Kaguya]

After a while Haru opened his eyes, his vision blurry as it always was when he first woke up, but unlike the normal light he was use to seeing it was dark so pulled his knee's close to him as he began to cry the winds outside the house picked up as he screamed out not understanding where the light had gone on hearing a knock at the door he whimpered but came off the couch crawling forward before standing and opening it.

"H-hello?" he was nervous, likely he would be told off for opening it but he knew no better. At the door would be an couple who looked like she was in her mid fifties, grey hair done up in a bun wearing a forest green dress and rose colored shawl "Oh I am sorry to disturb you, I heard we had new neighbours so wanted to introduce myself..." Haru looked at her as she spoke scared out of his mind which was easy to see as the wind picked up "Do you want to come in, the wind is angry." moving to let her in.

"The light left, I don't know when it'll be back." his voice quiet as he helped her sit down. The woman looked at him oddly as he spoke "Where are your parents?" she asked noticing how everything was so quiet. Haru went to the kitchen door in the hopes to find Amire "I-It's only my big brother and me, the gods called our parents." he whispered shaking Amire as he found him

"A-Amire, the light left and there is a woman sitting on my sleeping area." he hadn't been shown anywhere else to sleep so as far as he was concerned the couch was his bed. The woman sat quietly waiting for the brother hoping to the gods he was more grown up than the boy that had answered the door.

"My son is an innocent child, not a key..." she growled "A teenager with the innocence and obedience of a five year old... stop talking about him as if he is an inanimate object like your brain." she was protective of her boy, of Amire to as he needed someone to care for him, to show him that the world wasn't a cruel heartless place.

"You'll find that one hard, by my understanding Haru gets to choose his own shield and he will not choose Louis. As Louis for one has never been in here to meet Haru and two they have never bonded." It was a true enough fact, Haru needed to trust the person or their was no way he could be a shield and as much as Haru trusted everyone, he didn't always bond to them.

"Haru's shield will be Amire, I can guarantee they are together and that they are bonding." she smiled a little "I have never seen Haru's eyes turn black, or the dark tendrils when he has been awake, but both happened when Amire was in danger... he has chosen his shield." it was as simple as that as much as the facility may hate it, Haru couldn't be forced to bond it was the only thing they hadn't tried to control foolishly believing he wouldn't understand.

"Me reap souls? I think not..." she wouldn't touch another person, she vowed this after her husband's death on his grave. "Since you care not for Amire, pass his guardianship to me, let me tend to him if he is found, that way you have more time with your precious Louis"she knew it was a long shot but she had to try. "Wait..." she sounded surprised as information was just processed "What do you mean Haru will be the new face of the world?" she was a carer but was given no information on the plans, but this part she wanted to know
