La-de-la-di-dah. if you don't like my fics don't read them nice and simple. For all those who flame saying that they don't like my characters, again, don't read my fics. Do you understand that now? Good. On with the story!
While drifting in a sea of pain and burning, agonizing heat, she opened her eyes, closing them again tightly when the warm sun left her temporarily blind. She attempted to shift her weight and sit up, but to no avail, she doubled up in pain and lay back down. Her body was aching all over, especially below her right breast. She reached over to feel the spot were the pain was coming from and found it wrapped neatly in cloth bandages along with her left arm and both her legs.
Outside there were birds chirping happily and the bright sun seemed to be the cause of the comforting atmosphere. The young woman looked out the small, wood-framed window shielding her eyes from the bright light released from outside it. Trying again, more slowly and cautiously this time, she sat up and rubbed her eyes. Looking down, she noticed that the bed she was sitting in was merely a mess of blankets and pillows thrown on top of a rather makeshift wooded table, with a board for a headrest, and slid to the corner of the room. Random things littered the floor and other items of furniture scattered about the room. Papers, maps, random jewelry and other precious items were carelessly left unattended and thrown to the floor.
"The Fox will be back soon, I wouldn't leave if I were you," Said a voice from the doorway. She jumped and just then realized she was naked, but still didn't bother to cover herself. She turned to look at the spot where the voice came from. It was a very handsome man, with a long off-black ponytail and icy blue eyes. She shuddered as he spoke again, "I can't believe he brought you hear. damn kit." his voice was smooth and had the perfect depth to match his figure. He looked at her with a cocked eyebrow and then smiled.
"Please forgive my rudeness, my name is Kuronue." the words rolled off his tongue as he gave a simple bow. She nodded and looked back out the window. After a few seconds Kuronue cleared his throat and took a few steps forward casually.
"Can I ask yours?" she never took her eyes off the tiny birds nest perched outside the small pane.
"Saki." she said quietly. He nodded though she didn't see and then smiled walking to the door.
"I just came to check on you so. unless you have any questions I'll be going now." Saki turned, stopping his tracks.
"Where am I?" at that a loud bang could be heard downstairs followed by many exasperated yells.
"Well, well, guess whose home." Kuronue walked to the exit and stood in the doorframe leaning to the side nonchalantly, "What's your problem now Kitsune?" Saki listened intently for a voice to answer. Kuronue was greeted with another deep scream and more crashing. The winged youkai just sighed and walked out of the room to slouch over the balcony.
"You're fixing all of that I hope you know," he said carelessly. The other man could be heard growling.
"Fuck it all! It wasn't worth it! Someone got hold of the plan and anything of any value was gone!"
"Kami stop yelling!" Saki bawled lying back down and smothering her face with the closest pillow. The man downstairs heard her plea and suddenly calmed down.
"She's still here? Hell, she's still alive? "He called up to the man on the balcony. Kuronue nodded and signaled for him to come up. Feet padded up the twisted wooden stairs quickly and stopped at the top. Saki made no notation of pulling the pillow off of her face as the two men approached her speaking in hushed voices. She felt the presence of one of the men standing at the bedside and heard the other shuffle to the other side of the room. She heard papers fly everywhere as if he had just thrown them off in a quick effort to clear the desk. In almost an instant she heard both men shift beside her speaking more hushed then before, one of them obviously getting annoyed. Seconds later her body felt cold and the soft down pillow was ripped from her face.
A tall, silver haired man towered over her, his deep ambers eyes seemed to impale through her soul. She blushed as she saw him bend down to prod at her body and remove all of the bandages that gave her any protection from his piercing glare. Pulling up a chair, he took his index finger and started at her neck ran in down her stomach. He tried to trace his finger lower but she quickly snapped her good arm up and slapped him hard. Saki pulled her legs to her chest despite the pain of her broken one, and inched backwards till her back hit the wall.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR!?" he yelled rubbing his cheek.
"I'm indecent and you have the nerve to touch me? Who the hell do you think you are! And where are my clothes! I demand them back at once!" Saki yelled back. She had expected him to argue back at him but became extremely annoyed when he just sat back and laughed at her. Then Saki had noticed that he was pointing to the small waste bin in the corner.
"Well, there is what's left of your clothes. They won't do you much good now besides I can give you things far better." he added in a rather tantalizing way. A shiver ran down her spine and she began to become frightened of what he meant. His fox like ears twitched this way and that and he cocked an eyebrow at her expression letting out a quiet laugh.
"What? Don't you know who I am?" the silver-haired-man said rather confused. She shook her head and blushed.
"Am I supposed too?" Saki answered. Both Kuronue and the other man let out a howling laugh and grasped their sides gasping for air after a few minutes. Kuronue was just wiping the tears from his eyes as the taller man choked out a few words.
"Ever hear of a thief that they say is the worst in all of the Makai? He's a rapist, a swindler very powerful coldhearted man? " Saki shook her head again and watched the two men's jaws drop.
"Who is that?" both the light and dark haired men shot each other the most quizzical looks they could muster.
"Are you sure you've never heard of someone like that?" he asked once more.
"Oh, give it up Youko she's never heard of you" Kuronue laughed poking him in the shoulder. Saki went pale.
"Y-y-ouko? As in Youko Kurama?" she spat out uneasily and tried to inch away a bit more. Both men looked up and the fox smiled triumphantly.
"Never heard of me huh?" Youko said in a cocky tone to the standing youkai. Kuronue pouted, crossing his arms and looked away mumbling to himself. Saki still looked uneasy, every thing that he had said about himself echoing through her mind. Youko caught sight of this and reached out his hand beckoning her to him. She swallowed hard and inched instead further away. Kuronue snorted his laughter, causing Kurama to kick him rather hard in the shin to silence him immediately, and then sighed.
"Listen, only the stories about me being a thief, are true" he said to reassure her. Kuronue stepped back a few inches to avoid another blow and added,
"Oh, yes, but Kitsune, you forgot the ones about being the trickster and liar and being quite the Playboy." He jumped out of the way of the foxes swinging fists and continued, "You know Saki-Chan he's slept with hundreds of women, and men if I might add..."
Youko was off the chair and Kuro was dodging frantic punches here and there, "He's never raped anyone, oh no, not Youko. He prefers his prey to be willing then he had no reason to feel guilty about leaving in the morning."
Finally Kurama landed one harsh punch into the winged youkai's face silencing him for good in this conversation. And the three of them all knew if that hadn't happened she probably could have kept listing faults for hours. Panting lightly Kurama sat back down on the chair sending death glares to the giggling youkai now sprawled across the floor.
"The point was not to let her know that dumb ass." he whispered angrily.
"Come here I need to change the bandages" he demanded rather harshly then he had meant to. Saki shook her head and began to tremble.
