A Father's Love

Haruto finally sees that whatever they want, they'll get it.

"Haruto, think fast. This man is thinking about how to make you on your knees."

The demon's voice was without remorse. Haruto was stuck in place but didn't think much about running outside his door. 

The man hiding behind his dresser finally appeared. He had a scar on his face and was racing at me. The demon kept chuckling like it was some joke.

I reached the front door, but a knife was impaled on the door surface. And Haruto was thrown to the kitchen table. 

"Fuyuyoshi wants to keep you alive, but I won't kill you. Just make you suffer."

Haruto pushed the man back as he hit the wall, but he soon recovered and booked it for the front door. I ran faster than I could, but the demon's voice was behind me. That meant he was right on my trail.

"BAHAHAHA!!"

The demon laugh kept getting louder and louder, but finally, I made it to the busy part of Tokyo. Haruto hid near an alleyway with his phone hand in hand, calling the police. 

"Hello?? I am being chased by a man who wants to kill me! My location is ************ come quickly, please!"

But he felt a chill down my spine. The demon's voice was right behind me.

"BAHAHAHAHA"

This man had no intent on keeping Haruto safe and sound. Haruto pushed him back with the strength he had at that moment. But the knife impaled his right leg.

"Ngh! Why are you doing this? Didn't your boss tell you to keep me unharmed? Please leave me alone!" Haruto pleaded with his attacker, but he only laughed with the demon. 

"BAHAHA! Fuyuyoshi is an idiot, man! He's my partner in the organization. I have to keep you alive."

This time, he pulled out the knife that was in Haruto's leg, and he was about to attack his left leg. But there is a shot.

"Touki! What the hell are you doing? Leave the boy alone. These are strict orders from the top. Leave now, or I will have you decapitated right this very sight." 

Haruto looked at the person who shot his attacker. From what he said, they both worked in the same organization. But his demons looked fierce, calm, and collected. 

"Haruto, this man is Yuma Kei. He killed his wife and his daughter for the sake of joining the organization! What a father!"

"Boy, are you alright? I'm sorry my colleague can't keep his blood thirst to a minimum. Allow me to heal your injuries as an apology on behalf of our organization."

His voice was calm and collected as Yuma spoke like the demon that was apart of him. How could a man be this cruel and kill his family just to join an organization?
