278 Finding Shiro4

Morrigan sees Shiro on the plane sitting next to an older man. They are laughing and doing word puzzles together. Shiro is excited about his trip and an barely sit still. Morrigan looks around the plain to see if she can see the demon. There is no sign of it so he must have came in contact with it in Washington DC . She watches the boy play happily and the love in the older man's eyes is genuine. So what happened that Shiro thinks this man hurt him. Morrigan follows them when they get off the plane and watches closely. The child of Lilith appears just as they are leaving the airport. There is a commotion just outside a small child is being placed in an ambulance his body is covered he is dead. The child had bruises and cuts all over him Morrigan looks at the child of Lilith and asks. 

"Are you the cause of this?" Her question makes the demon scared and it shakes his head no. 

"The child was terminally ill and his parents could not afford his treatment. They beat him regularly when they were angry that he was sick. They did not deserve a child, they should never been allowed to have one." The demon spat on the ground and disappears. The demon seemed angry over the child's mistreatment. Most relish the feel of misery and pain but this one does not . Morrigan is outside of the museum now and is watching as the class is on their tour. She sees the demon watching Shiro closely. The demon is smiling at how happy Shiro is and how much the older gentlemen dotes on him. Marshal and Aisling is right something is wrong. Morrigan notices that the demon is following Shiro with the bodyguards, they are talking to the teacher. Shiro leaves with them, he  is not happy and asking for his uncle. The bodyguard tells him. 

" your Uncle is making the arrangements for your treatment we are taking you to him." The driver tells him. Instead of them taking him to the hospital they arrive at a cheap hotel just outside of the city. Taking him into a room they leave Shiro and lock the door. Shiro is laying on the bed crying and asking why his uncle is not coming. The demon is touches him when he does his features become Shiro's. Shiro stares at his image standing next to him touching the boy he is solid and looks exactly like him. 

"Have you sent the ransom note yet to Shiro's family?" The teacher asks the bodyguard. 

"No I was going to go inside and tell him that we were not able to find him at the museum, I have the letter ready to be messengered on my call to your brother." He tells her. She nods and gets out. Looking around ensuring that she is not noticed by Shiro's uncles bodyguard from earlier she gets a taxi. Shiro's bodyguard gets out and heads inside. He is dumbfounded by the fact that Shiro is sitting with his uncle waiting for the doctor. He bows to his boss and goes off to the side to call his partner. 

"How is it that the boy is here at the hospital? How did he escape you?" The bodyguard asks. The man on the other end goes inside the room and sees Shiro's limp body on the bed. He goes over and feels him. He is ice cold and not responding to his shakes. He tells the man on the phone. 

"I think we have a problem. The child I have here i think is dead. His body is cold and his lips are purple in color. He is not responding to me shaking him. What am I to do?" He asks the bodyguard. The body gaurd tells him. 

"You idiots took the wrong child? I gave you uniforms with his families crest on it so that he would come right to you. How could you make such a mistake. Get rid of the body hopefully no one will notice that another child has gone missing for a few days I will try to get Shiro away somehow during his uncles absence tomorrow." Cursing the bodyguard hangs up and goes to stand gaurd with the others next to his boss and the child. Morrigan goes back to tell Aisling what she has found out. 

walking inside the house Astila is in the phone with Yona , Morrigan smiles at him and listens to him talk to Yona. 

"I'm not sure what has happened, Hiroto is certain that his brother is with Shiro at the hospital. He talked to him last night and he says that Shiro has a blood anomaly but is healthy other wise . That his diabetes is well under control with the diet that the hospital has him on.they are even weaning him off his medication. Something that would have killed him months ago. We know Shiro is dead because we have seen his spirit. So who is that in the hospital with Hiroto's brother?" Yona tells Astila. 

"I will go to the hospital tomorrow to visit one of my colleagues there and just stop by and check on him . Telling him that I am your brother and that I met Hiroto on a video call when he was having dinner with you the other night . That I thought I would stop since meeting him. Then maybe I can see for myself." Astila tells Yona as he turns to see Morrigan. Astila smiles at Morrigan as he starts to say goodbye to Yona. 

"I will call you again tomorrow." He tells Yona and hangs up. Astila greets Morrigan. 

" Morrigan are you here about Shiro?" Astila asked her. 

"I am it turns out that the demon I thought was a child of Lilith is actually a kitsune or a nine tailed fox. It has finally been able to take human form. It's greatest desire is to become human, it was attracted to Shiro because of the happiness he felt watching Shiro with his uncle. When Shiro was kidnapped by his bodyguard and his teacher with the help of her brother and his friends. The kitsune took Shiro's form to help him find out what was happening and if his uncle had something to do with it or not. Shiro died before the Kitsune could get back to him. It is the Kitsune that has been in the hospital receiving the treatment in Shiro's place. When he over heard the man tell the bodyguard that Shiro was dead he didn't know what to do. I think that if he had known that Shiro was about to die he would not have left him and would have kept him alive. Now the question is do we allow the Kitsune to live as Shiro . Allow him and Shiro's family be happy or do we let Shiro's body be found and find out about the Kitsune and think he was in cahoots with the kidnappers." Morrigan asks Astila's. 

"Only Shiro and the Kitsune can answer that and that can happen only with the fathers blessing. " Astila tells Morrigan. Morrigan nods in agreement and Astila asks Shiro's spirit 

"You heard what Morrigan said right?" Shiro's spirit nods. 

"What do you want to do ?" Astila asks him . Shiro's spirit looks sad and looks at Morrigan. 

"I want to meet with the Kitsune again and talk to him . Then after talking to him I will decide." Shiro's spirit tells Morrigan. Morrigan nods and tells him. 

"I will take you to him, do not worry no one but the Kitsune will be able to see or hear us, unless you want them to." Morrigan tells Shiro's spirit. Taking Shiro's sports hand they disappeared to go see the Kitsune.
