And she was waiting at the door

The young boy was not comfortable with this. To have this stranger know him without knowing the stranger back. There was reason for Itachi to be suspicious, but he supposed it could be a positive thing to know that his biological mother had not completely disowned him. It was a strange relationship they had, but he knew that his mother sometimes liked to visit him, though they never really said much while they were together. It was a flawed connection they shared, and he did not know whether or not he would have been better off without it. His young mind did not particularly enjoy going into detail in such things, so he remained oblivious, not holding any special interest in his mother, nor their relationship. Now scarlet eyes saw only this one, and he was discontent with the fact that the big adult harboured so much information about his life. It was not right and it was unfair.

A tiny nod was eventually offered the adult as he revealed that he knew that Itachi lived with his grandmother. Tail moved around his hind legs, seemingly at doubt where to settle. Itachi would not go as far as to lie to this large man though, for one did not lie to adults, ever, really. He detected his own reluctance around the stranger with the odd speech, and attempted to amend his attitude slightly since he seemed to be an acquaintance of his mother and caretaker and what not. A small step was taken forward as he continued to outright stare at the alien appearance of the other. Had he ever seen blue eyes before in his short life? He believed not, and now when he realized this he couldn’t do anything but to stare with a child’s greedy, non-judging eyes of wonder. The young Lykoi knew that he had eyes similar to his mother and he had seen them in the reflection of a mirror, which had been very odd. Now he wished he had blue, because they looked much more interesting and exotic than dull reds and yellows as he had seen other individuals possess. ”I like your eyes.”

With the next question, the little male shook his head; no, Kaena did not let him go off on his own like that. She did allow the boy to swarm around the area as he pleased, because Itachi was no small kid anymore, but he doubted he was allowed this far away from the clan’s claimed lands. He held his breath in his little chest as the word “enemies” was mentioned. He had never seen an enemy, and it was hard to fear a mere word. The ruby eyed male was not alone though, for now this strange adult was here with him. ”I’m not by myself now.” Intent on arguing, but the child’s tone was not as venomous and unfriendly as it had been. He could perhaps give this adult a chance if his intentions only were to help. The Lykoi hybrid’s pride already had the best of him, and he did not honestly think there was anything specifically dangerous out here. It looked just like his home, only without the smell of clan.
