The Dog and the Dragon must try hard to understand one another's motivations in order to have a smooth relationship, for as Opposite Signs in the Chinese Zodiac, their connection may be marked by friction. The Dog happens to be one of the most flexible Signs in the Zodiac and would seem to get along with almost anyone; also, Signs Opposite one another in the Zodiac tend to have an intense attraction to one another, at least initially. Problems will come up between the Dragon and the Dog sooner or later, however, due to their different natures.

As lovers these two might have an intense sexual connection but their relationship could otherwise be prone to strife. The Dragon feels and expresses things immediately, forcefully; this might be quite off-putting to the Dog, who also tends to speak its own mind but has a greater need for peace than does the Dragon. The Dog is sensitive to emotional imbalances and generally spends plenty of time alone in order to self-maintain. The Dragon may tire of the Dog's moodiness and could perceive the Dog as being an emotional manipulator. The Dog is not manipulative, but it is temperamental and has trouble trusting people.

These two can trust one another; they simply have trouble realizing it. Both Signs are very loyal to those they hold dear and both will fight to protect loved ones. If the relationship between these two is business-oriented, they will also both work together to protect one another and the company - if they can learn to get along. The Dog is a hard worker and knows how to be discreet; these traits could work well with the Dragon's energetic demeanor and gift of initiative. The Dragon is also lucky with money, but may take too many risks for the Dog's tastes.

So how will the Dog and Dragon come together?

The sky was a pink and orange color, filling the sky with comfort. It was becoming night fall guicker than usual. Sitting up the dark haired girl stretched, with a yawn. She stood placing a hand on her hip, smirking. The wind blew softly sending the scent of demons and humans nearby. The scents were close enough to be a danger to those around the area.

'A war maybe?' she sniffed the polluted air once more for the scent for gun powder. She coughed at the chocking scent.

'Fire?' She sighed. Another job. She dusted off her clothes. Her pink enticing lips stretched into a smug smile. Her legs bent to an certain angle, then she jumped to a height that launched her above the tree tops. She land gracefully on a strong tree banch. Above the trees in the forest, a huge smoke cloud blew from the ground. Kagome closed her eyes listening carefully. She could hear horses and people screaming.

It wasn't a war, a village was being attacked. She jumped down from her perch. She broke into a sprint headed towards the village. Same old, same old. Kill bad guys, save villagers from some sort of threat. She wanted something fun to do. Her big purple eyes caught everything in veiw. She doged trees, boulders, uprooted roots, and low branches. Her speed increased as she caught the scent of blood. She frowned when she came to the village walls and she stopped. The screams of terror rung loud in her ears. She bounced onto the wall then to a tree branch taller than the wall and over the edge of the wall, landing on the ground silently behind a house.

She made her way past small homes on fire, blood and dead bodies. She could hear a loud chuckle and smell the smoke the fire was making. She found herself a few feet away from a pack of demons and a few dozen women. What her fierce eyes saw, made her teeth gritt, her fangs expanding slightly. There were large demon lizards wearing armor who were foaming at the mouth and their eyes were locked on a group full of adult women. She listened and watched the scene in front of her unfold before she reacted.

"Look at what we have here?" one of them chuckled sickenly. They circled around the group as a bigger lizard with more, cleaner armor stood infront of them all.

'Ooh boy, he's huge' She thought as a scowl formed slightly over her beautiful calm face. She listened. The fire raging around her surroundings didn't bother her nor did the heat but what did bother her was the scene before her. She silently bounced off the balls of her feet and silently moved to land on a roof above all the action. The roof's fire reacted instantly around her, making a ring of fire. She stared down over the edge whistling, trying to get their attention. She got what she wanted.

Their golden lustful eyes focused on her then they filled with rage.

"Who the hell are you?" one of the lesser lizards asked. She stood there with her hands crossed over her chest.

"That's none of your concern but...-" Her voice trailed off when she jumped down from the hut and onto the ground inbetween the women and the demon lizards.

"What you do need too know is that I'm taking these pretty women for myself." She winked in a somewhat flirtious way, she hadn't had a fight sense the beginning of the winter but it was spring now. It was dangerous though, just like animals, demons went into mating season. As villagers they should've known that. They should've been prepared. She gritted her teeth when a sudden pain flashed across her heart like an arrow. She shook it off.

She smiled as the lesser lizards growled infront of her, taking small steps toward her. She stared at them, blinking rapidly. The leader stood their staring at her with the same lustful eyes he had when she first saw them. Her thoughts became sidetracked when the fire around her became too intense.

"Leave, hurry!" She urged turning to the defeneless group of human females. They stayed where they were, afraid. She turned back to the lizards to see four of the lesser demon's pounce onto her. Her eyes light up despite her annoyance with the female humans behind her.

'They're fast.' She thought jumping into the air above them. But she was faster. Her fangs and claws grew a little more from the excitment of the battle about to begin. She fell towards the ground carefully, landing directly on the head of one of the lesser lizards, using the tip of her foot she kicked him in the back of it's head, sending him and the two other lesser demons into a burning hut.

The leader, smirking , snuck behind her, parting her from the group of still frightened women. His scaley long, cold tail, wrapped around her right ankle. She gave a surprised cry when the demon, whom she was yet to injury, lifted her off her feet and upside down. She had forgotten about him really. She let her guard down because of how weak they were. Her short kimono began to slide downward, revealing her creamy thighs and cotton white underwear.

"Well, looky here, a demon?" He said bringing her closer to his face. She winced when his nasty hot breath hit her sensitive nose. She frowned.

'This is taking too long! These women..' She looked from the corner of her eye, the women were close knit and sweating. They'd either die of the smoke or the fire raging around them would start to hit from the roof of the huts and to the ground. She turned her attention to the leader when something hot and wet rolled down her thigh. She was disgusted. Anger was written on her face when she saw the leaders tongue pull slightly away from her thigh.

"That is disgusting!" she protested. Her free hands grabbed the tongue, pulling it slightly. She placed her slightly lengthened claws over his tongue, then raked her nails over the disgusting tool. Blood splattered over her legs and stomach. Her actions earned a howl of pain from the leader. Satasfied, she twisted her torso so her back was sligthly to him, then she released. Her body turned into a tornado twirling at the speed of lighting. The lizard's tail snapped into tiny pieces, splattering everywhere. She, landed hard on her ass, as the lizard's tail dropped around her.

With an ounce of strength, she threw herself into the air then came back down. Her fist dug into his skull until she could feel it split underneath her fists. Her smirk grew as blood began to pour from his eyes and mouth, the leader fell to the ground with a loud thud. She landed a few feet away from the last lesser demon. He stood shaking for a few minutes before his instincts to him to run. She scoffed and turned away from him to the group of women who stared at her with looks of fright.

She gave a small smile. Her eyes closed as her body clutched tight. Her eyes reopened, their color a bright yellow, with slit black ores in the middle. The women infront of her jumped and shivered with fear. She looked up towards the, now night sky. It was filled with stars. Her eyes stared at the sky until finally, something small and cold dropped onto her cheek. She smiled as her eyes closed. Rain began to fall from the sky, millions drops of water landing on the small village. After minutes the village's rage of fire began to shrink away into nothing. Happily she opened her eyes, they were glassy purple ores once again. She watched ast the women looked around confused and wet.

'Finally.' She thought as she began to walk towards the village entrance. She vanished into the dark cold night. But to be honest she felt down. She was so happy and excited to have fought once now this year but something was missing. As she hopped tree branch from tree branch she realized something. What she was missing that is. She was missing the people she celebrated with after a victory, her friends, her family. All of it. Her neatly cut black bangs covered her lonely purple eyes as she disappeared into the depths of the forest and into the night.
