Alright, about midway through reading some other works by people I had this crazy idea. Stick your favorite bishi bad a**** together and stick myself with them. First thought is rape, rape, rape. More rape, but I decided to keep that probably till the very end...well the actuality of it happening. Dreaming while adventuring with them is however another completely different story which I hope to soon explore. Yes I am a pervert. Stick yourself in a room with one of your fave anime characters and see how long you last, or how long their clothes can hold on before being mauled.
Main Character is Raven. She ends up meeting a guy and given a necklace that transports her to another dimension and then gives her the abilities of a demon; like blasting purple energy orbs at enemies with her 'Aura', telekinesis, and transformation (which happens at inopportune moments). She also has that pesky female fox demon going into heat (Which depending on fanfiction sometimes the females go into heat, sometimes the males do, and others they are more human with that instinct and won't go into heat.) but I will save that for later. I don't wanna be rapping anyone too soon. I wanted this fanfic to be really funny and let me get some of my spastic impulses out there with some of the more or less funny, if not corny humor I come up with.
Character wise, I have tweaked with their personalities a bit to fit the story, so uber fangirls don't kill me. It will be explained if you read. I am sorry if you don't like it. Later on in the chapters, the personalities kinda go back to where they should be, but not quite. Since it would be hard for me to try and have them be in proximity if they had their original personalities, and I can't have that if I want a story, even if it is sorta on crack.
Dragon Con* was just around the corner and I couldn't wait. I had spent most of the year preparing for my new experience with better costumes and the ability to finally drink in public. My roommate Zack was finishing packing the bags before we headed out.
"So is everything set?" I asked him.
"Almost, trying to decide if I need to bring sunscreen. Remember last year when we were stuck in that line for two hours and you had a massive sunburn?" he told me.
Hating my pale complexion and bright blue eyes, when it came to the summer, lots of sunburn and glare, I groaned. I would need the extra protection but I did have long sleeve costumes this year, "No, I came prepared."
We loaded up the car with various things such as costumes, accessories, make-up, and a few pillows because they were going to be staying at my sister's place down in Atlanta instead of renting a hotel room. Zack called Ashley and when we made sure she was expecting us, we made our way down. Luckily we managed to get there after the morning rush hour and before lunch. Zack and I unpacked our things and handed Ashley and her boyfriend tickets as payment for letting us stay.
"Okay we are going as whatever tomorrow and then we can go as Bleach characters. Oh snap! I left Kisuke's hat on the table! Crap, guess we will have to pick up a hat and paint it," I said unpacking my outfit for tomorrow.
"Want to dress up for today, even though it is pre-registration day?" asked Ashley.
"Sure why not, what could happen?"I agreed.
After we dressed and then piled up into the car and headed towards the Sheraton to get our name tags printed. After painstaking hours of waiting in line we headed out to see if there were any shows lined up for Thursday. Last year Zack and I befriended Voltaire, after I leaped up onstage and held a sign for his Hell in a Hand basket. This year if I was given the chance again, I would, and I had a video camera just in case. This year I had made a Deady costume to surprise him with and I was grinning from ear to ear with excitement, picturing the look on his face.
"Raven! Earth to Raven!" said Ashley with her hand waving over my face.
"Yep?" I replied, snapping back to reality.
"Bishi, twelve o'clock. So kidnapping? That isn't so bad...I mean we will feed them coo-Zomygawd! Is that? Bye guys we will see you later, we have cell phones!" said Ashley jerking me in a random direction.
"What...was that?" asked Zack.
"I think that elf is going to get 'lost' rather quickly. Between Ashley's boobs, and Raven's ability to make anything into rope. We better stop them," said Shaun.
"Dude, no way. Last time that happened, Raven dressed me up in a school girl outfit and paraded me around. I have some pride," said Zack backing away,"They can bail themselves out of jail."
Ashley sped towards the dressed up Legolas and stopped just short of running into him. She casually bumped into him and began to play 'I am so clumsy' girl. Flirting constantly, we were sending mental pictures to one another of what we were going to do to the poor boy. Not even five minutes later another female elf strutted her way towards the guy and began sending 'back the fuck off...my boyfriend' messages.
"Oh well, thanks for the invitation to the party. We may show up, I mean it is so easy to get lost," I said grabbing my sister and retreating. When out of earshot of the woman,"Oh my god, I think she was trying to flay us with her mind, or set us on fire."
"Do you blame her, with a chest like this," pointing at her 'accident causing' DDs,"who wouldn't!"
"Wha-?" I said when I caught myself drooling,"Okay I have to admit. They are spectacular."
We walked around and had pictures taken of us with people and by random people until around six when we were going to meet up at one of the restraunts in the hotel. We were running late as usual before Ashley stopped and began looking around.
"Agh! I have to go...again, bathroom," she said bee lining her way towards the nearest one.
While Ashley was in the rest room I occupied myself with small talk, though with me it was normally with a wall. I just found it more interesting arguing with imaginary people than with those of the reality kind. I was in mid argument about whether or not my faux tail would look better if I stapled it to my pants or if I just cut a hole through some old ones when a strange and very well dressed old man walked by looking rather confused.
I ran up to him,"Hey man. You need some help?"
"Um yes actually I am looking for a friend, they are staying here but I don't remember where," he said.
"Here lemme help. I what is their name?" I asked him, leading them to the concierge.
"Nathan Blank," he said.
"Um, excuse me. I am looking for a Nathan...Blank. My friend here is looking for the room he is staying in," I told the lady at the desk.
"We aren't allowed to...Oh Mister Black. I didn't realize..He is in room 2705," she said looking nervous.
"So Mister Black. There you go," I happily smiled, feeling accomplished.
"Thank you Miss..." he said.
"Oh Raven," I said handing him a hand.
"Oh that is nice," he said shaking mine, "Here is something for you. To repay your kindness."
He took out a beautiful necklace and handed it to me. I stared at the brilliant blue ribbon and the quarter sized purple and black pendant. I had only intently stared and drooled over it for what I thought was a few seconds and looked up.
"Hey look man-I. Where did he go?" I asked the lady.
"Where did who go? Did you need any help?" she replied.
"I-uh, no. Thank you," I said before wandering back to where Ashley was.
Ashley was waiting, tapping her foot in place so hard that some of the sparkles on her fairy wings were coming off. As I spotted my sister she marched over to me and grabbed my arm," And where exactly have you been?"
"Helping old people and small children," I smarted off.
"Yeah, whatever, and I am the Queen of England. No matter, let's go, we are late," she said heading over to the restraunt.
The boys greeted us as they sat down and picked up the menu. After they ordered I told them the story of Mr. Black and the odd instance.
"You should return it," said Zack.
"No, it is too pretty and haven't you been listening. He disappeared into thin air," I told him.
"Yeah and that 'few seconds' was probably close to fifteen minutes. I know how you like shiny stuff," he teased.
"Yeah yeah, just don't cut yourself on that oh so sharp intellect," I jested back.
"Ha ha. I mean we are here for four days, you are bound to run into him again," said Shaun.
"Okay but can I keep it tonight. I mean it is a spiky heart necklace with sapphire blue ribbon, and I doubt it is worth even five bucks," I said cuddling it to my face.
"I think she has it in for that necklace," said Zack, "Thank god. I was sure I was going to have to bail you out of jail this year for kidnapping. I mean that elf never had a chance."
We both sighed and replied,"Taken."
"So if I dressed up like that what would you do, Miss Ashley?" asked Shaun.
"Never see daylight again," I answered for her.
"Okay I am finding him, taking a long walk with him, and stealing his outfit," teased Shaun, sending Ashley into fits of half mad-half wanting him to do it.
I tied the necklace around my neck and wore the thing like a badge. Some people even complimented it, and my faux large cat ears I made myself, and my tail. This year I even went out of my way and got a manicure, which caused major teasing from my friends that the world was coming to an end. I did consider myself a guy trapped in a really cute looking body sometimes, though my exterior screamed female. I just wasn't patient enough or cut out to be really feminine. Not like the many guys I dated, and lusted after, who were more feminine than me but my friends did tease me that an ogre was more feminine than I was when they got the chance. Walking casually with the group, eying some people dressed as some of my favorite characters, I thought to myself about the three greatest men in my opinion and how I wanted to meet them, and well -ahem-.
That night we found themselves at various concerts, which I was glad they were playing because for the two hours we walked around after lunch I was bored out of my skull. After the concerts we went and had a "few" drinks, having Zack as the designated driver and went home. I was rather tipsy and was singing some off key songs including "Numa, Numa" and "When You're Evil". When I went into the guest bedroom I barely made it to the bed before tripping over a shoe I had left and fell to the ground. I curled up in a ball and began to stretch before Zack walked in and began to try and wake my up.
"Nosh, I swear if you -hic- touch me...I killz you so bads," I told him before he dropped my foot and left to go play some Modern Warfare.
I wasn't really that drunk but I did like to overplay somethings, that and I kinda felt off after I placed the necklace around my neck. Felling as if I was here but not, like around the time you are nearly asleep and for some reason your eyes open. My brain then switched to the usual 'Fantasy Land of Bishis' as I ran wild with the various memories of god loving fan art that I usually spent my time oogaling over. Well I wasn't as bad as some people but I was pretty out there with my thoughts and what I did. Even to myself sometimes I pictured everyone in the color of anime. I couldn't help it, I always had an overactive imagination and I used it very well. Not wanting to sleep yet I rose up from my position and tried to get up off the bed, but my uncanny sense of clumsiness caused my to trip off the bed and into the floor. I braced myself for impact and closed my eyes, but I didn't hit the ground.
When I opened my eyes I was in a completely different room, "Okay I know I am a little tipsy, but who slipped roofie in my drink."
I heard a noise behind me and decided to investigate. Sure enough there was a body laying on the ground but before I could fully manage to walk over there, something grabbed my ankle. Immediately switching to 'the zombies got me' thoughts, I ran for it, forgetting something had just grabbed me. Not even a step forward before I was jerked to the ground. Whatever had me, I couldn't care less, my face was intimately friendly with the floor and I was out like a light.
Morning brought a throbbing pain to my face as I recollected yesterday's events. Jumping up as I remembered I was at Dragon Con, I rushed around and hopped out of a bed. When reality caught up with my a half second later, I stopped.
"I was in bed...Shaun. Come one guys, I get the joke. Yeah you were right that last Grateful Dead did me in," I called out but no answer,"Guys? This isn't funny anymore. Where are you!"
I raced out the door and found myself in a large dark hallway. Various high placed windows filtered in some light, and to my left was a set of french doors, and too my right was a staircase. Walking slowly to take in the new scenery I decided I wouldn't mind staying here a bit longer. It had a high ceiling, Gothic decor, and even the darker shades of red that covered the wall wasn't bad, it even had some light pink and white flowers decorating it here and there. I didn't care for the light pink flowers but it wasn't bad, the floors were a dark wood and some art was hanging on the wall, I couldn't tell you who it was by but it was still nice. I heard someone downstairs and went towards it slowly. It sounded like a male, who was also banging something against metal, and that is when the smell of bacon hit me. My stomach growing as I went into a kitchen to be greeted by a familiar face.
"Oh Miss Raven. You are awake," said the old man from yesterday.
"...save me," I backed away slowly.
"No, no I didn't kidnap you. You wanted to be here, you came here on your own," he said flipping the bacon,"I told you I would repay you for helping me yesterday. The Human World is so frustrating to navigate. You can't even teleport there. Everything is so, manual...Oh where are my manners. My name is Tylean. I go by Victor Black in your world and many others in the rest."
"An old man, telling me that something that doesn't usually happen did. Alright, so is that face of yours as fake as the name you gave me?" I asked.
"Oh I didn't realize I still had the thing on. Thank you," he said waving his hand over his face.
The old man appearance melted away. Replacing it was a young twenty something man with silver eyes and bright red hair with black at the base and the tips, there were dark blue markings in the middle of his forehead and on the back of his hands, his nails grew into points and became manicured, his outfit changed from a gray and white dress suit to a jet black one with a red undershirt, and he grew a few inches taller. I stared at him, minorly drooling and begging myself not to wake up.
"Oh don't worry my dear, this is no dream," he told me, his voice now had a bell like ring to it.
"I pray not. You said repaying me. So you shanghaied me to an alternate universe to hang out with someone like you for a while. Cool," I said skipping to a chair and placing myself down in it.
"Not exactly no. You are only here because of your accident last night. You broke your face on my floor when you got here. So you had to stay back and be healed before I sent you off to where you were supposed to be. I don't know why you landed here either. You should have been taken with all the others," he said placing the pan of bacon off the stove and putting some on a plate,"After breakfast I will send you to where you need to be."
"Others? You mean other half crazed, overreacting, super active imagination type girls?" I asked.
"No but you will like what I did. Though I tampered with their personalities a bit to make it easier on you. Usually we aren't allowed to mess with memories, and change people. Though because of your accident I had to, otherwise they may have killed one another by now," he said handing my a plate,"You know I am surprised you are taking this so well. Normal people would be trying to beat me away with this pan while screaming at the top of their lungs for someone to save them."
"Lemme guess, happened once or twice," I said.
"Not exactly how I described but yes. I have had other people here, and they mostly reacted the same, but not you. You are special," he said.
"For you to be so nice, can I ask you a question?" I asked.
"Certainly," he replied.
"What do you do exactly?"I replied.
"And here I thought you were going to ask who the others were," he chuckled,"I am a magic user if you couldn't tell. What I do is various. From collecting rare artifacts that tell the true history off it all to fulfilling dreams of sorts. You are lucky. Yesterday you helped me take down a wanted man who was hiding in your world."
"What did he do?" I asked.
"He twisted people to slavery using their dreams. He would manipulate them and cause the person to lose memories or go how you humans call clinically insane. Then he would use them as puppets and do his bidding. Some of your more famous criminals are his work," he said.
"So you are a bounty hunter or cop of sorts. So was my dad before I was born," I said between bites of the most delicious breakfast I had ever.
"Well usually we don't mind, but he was making it a known fact we exist," he said.
"There are more of you?" I inquired.
"Well yes. We are well...sort of like your gods in your world. Each of us have a different specialty. Mine is manipulating reality, bend it to my will. My sister would probably be considered your world's Aphrodite. She is love itself, I don't think she has disliked anyone in her long years," he said, "What we are called is different depending on the world we are in and what Natural Laws we have to abide. Your realm we are called Gods or Ancient Ones, and your realm is one of the most restricting ones out there."
"Okay keeping up with you. God, which brings me so many religious jokes you may have to smite me," I laughed," but to the point. What are Natural Laws."
"Laws set down in the beginning of each realm so that its reality isn't torn away or stripped. You already know this to be the Veil. I have watched you from time to time. Knower and Seer," he said.
"What?" I gasped.
"You are one of the handfuls in your realm that have gifts. You call it magick, as for you yourself, you have the power to know things before they happen or know things about people. You can also see things that normal people can't and you have the ability to feel and persuade. If I am not mistaken you are already aware of this," he told me.
"Yes. I just thought it was something I had to keep secret. Very few people know about this. Why? How?" I said to him.
"Well as for why I don't know. Your realm is the oldest, it was the First. That is probably why it is so science in your realm over the years, is prevailing over Magick some of your kind still posses weak abilities, the greatest one your kind posses is Creation. I have seen Knowers, Seers, Dreamers, Walkers, and all sorts of that stuff. If you had of grew up where I did, your abilities would have feed off the Aura and became quite a bit stronger." he said before finishing his plate and grabbing hers that I devoured the contents of it a minute after he sat it down before my,"Though I have to admit, your realm has the best food."
"Explain to me more on First and Creation please," I said leaning in, propping my face on my hands.
"Your realm was first as I said, keep up. Creation is what the entity that made you gave your kind to begin with. From you my realm and many others exist. Your artists and writers excel in this area. My realm is known as the Inbetween. We are neither alive nor dead. Occasionally your kind has a near death experience and ends up in my realm. Claiming it to be Heaven, but I am not so sure if it is true or not. When your kind dies your spirits go where they wish. Some of the greatest artists in your history live in their work literally now," he explained,"Now that breakfast is out of the way. I must see you out. You are going to a part of my realm. Something similar to your world but different. Play nice. Though you have a whole lot of adventuring to do before you are allowed to go home."
"Wait what?" I said jerking up.
"Well, you can't go home for a while. Don't worry things won't change. I have a friend named Othyvehen who can distort Time and he will send you back after everything is over. Try and survive. Everything you see and experience will be real. If you die, it is permanent. We can't really change that, we can manipulate your death before your life force leaves your body, so you will survive, but once you are gone, you are gone," he said summoning blue energy that caused a popping noise," If you ever need me call me through your necklace, but use it in emergencies only. It only has a number of uses before it breaks and you have to have the energy to summon me. Now when you get there you will notice some changes in you. Goodbye."
He blasted me with the energy and I felt as though some force was trying to melt me and turn me inside out at the same time. I tried to scream but before I could get anything out I had already appeared in a field, laying on my back. Before I could blink there were three shadows over my head. Moving my hand into the path of the sun, I tried to make out who they were before I felt someone lift her off the ground like I was nothing.
"What is it?" asked a male voice with an emotionless, formal expression.
"I have no idea, doesn't smell like anything I have come into contact with before," said another one, voice having less of a chill to it.
"So what do we do with her, we can't let her live now that she has found us," said the shadow holding me up with a dark undertone that made my spine shiver.
"I don't know anything I swear...I was transported here and I seriously want to go home now," I squeaked, covering my face.
"Drop her, she isn't worth anything," said someone behind me.
The more I heard the voices, the more something told me they were familiar. Still trying to focus in the bright light I was in, I was dropped to the ground with a dull thud and a sharp pain in my skull.
"We still haven't finished what we started. Her showing up here isn't going to change anything," said the guy who dropped me.
"It doesn't change the fact I will kill you both and go home so I can finish destroying Cloud and taking over my world," said the guy with the spine chilling voice.
"So you are working for Aizen. Though I care not for what this Cloud thing is. You will not take another step forward," said the second voice.
"You both will die. I wish to continue roaming my lands and expanding my empire," said the last male.
My thoughts rushed back to me. I defiantly knew these men and I defiantly knew I was dead. If they found out I caused this, wait, I thought to myself this was a dream after all. I leaped back up and tackled the one nearest to me. As we fell on the ground my focus came back and I found myself on top of none other than Byakuya Kuchiki, who was in the midst of drawing his zanpaktou. I immediately went haywire and leaped on the second one who was Sesshomaru, and then I went to tackle the last before a Nodachi was materialized, aimed at my neck.
"There is no friggin' way you guys are real. When I get my hands on that Tylean person I am gonna-" I started to say before being interrupted.
"Tylean? You know him!" said Sephiroth.
"Yeah he brought me here as a 'gift'," I mumbled looking away, avoiding eye contact.
"Lot of good that will do us, but at least we know who caused this," said Byakuya getting up and dusting himself off.
"This can't be...Sesshomaru, Byakuya, and the infamous Sephiroth. I am dead, I am so dead," I squeaked, backing up from Sephiroth.
"How does a creature like you know my name?" asked Sephiroth.
"What do you mean, creature. I am a human, you know the things you think you are better than," I told him. Sephiroth tilted his head to the side for a second before walking away.
"You are not a human, nor do I sense any reiatsu within you. So you can't be a shinigami," said Byakuya.
"What do ya mean?" I asked Byakuya.
"Your tail," he said pointing behind me.
"Oh this? It isn't real. It is part of a costume. Something we do in my world," I said.
"You cut off other creatures tails and wear them?" asked Sesshomaru.
"Well no, this one is faux. Here lemme take it off," I said pulling on the tail,"Ow! hold on I had it stapled to my pants, the bugger must have got me."
I yanked again only to have the same result of pain happen to me. After a third time I realized it wasn't coming off my backside and I then proceeded to question myself about uses of said tail. So I tested out trying to wag it, sure enough when I concentrated it started wagging. I became so fascinated by this fact that I ignored the three men staring at me. Then I wondered if the tail was real, was the over sized cat like ears I wore with it real too. I reached up and touched them, and sure enough they were. I had a fan girl moment and squeed before I came back to semi reality and looked up. All three of them looked at me as if I had gone retarded.
"What! They are new," I scoffed, puffing up her cheeks.
"First we get trapped in this world and now we have an idiot with us," said Sephiroth.
"Hey, that isn't very nice," I pouted.
"Since when have I ever been nice," he retorted.
"Well, since before you knew Jenova was you mother and you went insane when you found out that you were an experiment by SHINRA to save the world. Then you went insane," I replied.
"What else do you know?" he asked her.
"Well, you can summon Masamune at will, you try and manipulate people, and you are a very skilled swordsman. Sesshomaru hated his brother Inuyasha for the longest time and obsessed over the sword, Inutaisho, his father, gave Inuyasha. He hated humans up until the point he saved a girl named Rin and then he became more compassionate and when he finally got over it he got back his arm Inuyasha sliced off and was given Bakusaiga. He is also a Daiyōkai, greater demon. Byakuya, a member of the Thirteen Protection Squad, captain of the sixth division, his lieutenant is Renji Abarai. His Zanpaktou is Senbonzakura, and he was previously married, but she passed, afterward he adopted her sister as his own, Rukia. When Ichigo came to save her after she broke the law he as relived, though due to his proper royalty manners he won't show a damned thing to anyone. Both he and Sesshomaru are nobles in their own way, and you are a complete and total nutcase," I said," I would go into greater detail but that would take forever."
"How did you come by all these things," asked Byakuya with a look that could kill.
"We-well in my w-world we, um, stop staring like that. It is-um, topic...your lives come from my world," I managed to get out.
"How so?" asked Sesshomaru.
"Well, my people create things, and you guys were part of that...that is what Ty told me," I said sheepishly.
"Now addressing the nut case comment," said Sephiroth summoning Masamune again and charging at me.
For a split second she thought I was dead. No way could I keep up with his skills in combat, but instinct took over and I found myself dodging and swaying against his attacks. I could feel that my fur was standing on end and the other two males were trying to decide to help me or not before I lost my balance and was cut on the side of my cheek. This caused me to yelp in pain and some strange aura to appear around me. It was a dark purple, and waived off me like mist, before solidifying and blasting an energy orb at Sephiroth. My eyes changed from their silvery blue to a darker shade of blue, before going completely black. Red marks appeared on my face, two markings like whiskers on either cheek, and wrists before my fangs and claws began to grow out. I growled at the man and crouched down into a defensive like position. When Sephiroth regained his composure from being hit with a blast of some sort of energy, he got up and attacked me again with his Octaslash. My more feral side of myself dodged it with ease before disappearing from his sight and crashing into his left side, biting into him.
"Should we stop them?" asked Sesshomaru,"She shows some power but no skill. She may kill him."
As blood and flesh was ripped from Sephiroth, he flung me off him. I landed gracefully on the ground and attempted to charge him again. He was ready for her and used his materia within his blade to send a Firaga in my direction. Not expecting it, I was hit directly, smoke filled the area, as both Sesshomaru and Byakuya glanced in that direction. Sephiroth, pleased with himself, turned his back on the black cloud and began walking off. Another ball of purple energy hit him square in the back before he realized what was going on and I was already through the smoke and was headed in his direction. Byakuya reacted with this, wanting neither of us to kill one another and when I was mid air he cast Hado- Sho and knocked me away from Sephiroth.
"Before you two kill one another we all have to find our way back home," Byakuya stated,"I will not be bothered with this weak display your lack of control over your emotions. You, Sesshomaru, would you like the girl or deal with him?"
"I would rather stay out of it, but they would kill one another. I will handle the fox," he said before teleporting to where I landed and began to restrain me.
"And you two are going to be no fun," said Sephiroth,"I was enjoying myself."
"Yes and what if she was the way to get to our homes?" Byakuya asked the white haired man.
"And what if she is why we are stuck in this place?" Sephiroth told him.
"But there is no need for senseless massacre," Byakuya said before turning away from him,"You have no pride or respect."
While Sesshomaru was busy, having his hands full with the feral me his ears picked up the words that would probably lead to another brawl if Sephiroth wasn't careful. I was trying my hardest to defend myself, and when Sesshomaru picked up on that, he backed away slowly. When I sniffed the air and realized that Sesshomaru meant me no harm the aura surrounding me began to dissipate while I lowered my ears. I padded over to him on all fours like an animal and sniffed his hand. He picked me up and sat me on my feet before looking over his shoulder to find the other two males glaring at one another.
"We have another matter at hand gentlemen," he said picking me back up and planting me in front of him. I looked at Sephiroth and hissed at him before I started growling again,"You get over here and make nice, or I will help Byakuya force you to."
Sephiroth sighed and dropped Masamune before it dissipated in thin air. Gauging the fun he would have, Sephiroth thought of antagonizing me and forcing the other two to fight. Sesshomaru seeing the look of thought upon his face, glared at him with his usual golden eyes beginning to turn crimson. Sephiroth walked slowly over to me and held out his hand for me to sniff it and growl for a moment, before leaning forward and licking it.
"Great she goes from retarded to insane," said Sephiroth.
"It is your fault," said Byakuya,"I wonder if she has any speech. Raven?"
I turned to face Byakuya before pouncing out of Sesshomaru's grip and jumping the man. Though Byakuya was expecting a fully grown female to land on him, he held out his hands to try and deflect me, only to have an actual fox land in them.
"Well this certainly complicates things," said Byakuya holding the vixen in his hands staring at it,"I wonder if she will turn back. If so how long?"
"Well be better find civilization soon, I am getting hungry," said Sephiroth before walking in a random direction.
"Well planning won't help us at this point," said Sesshomaru following Sephiroth,"Well as long as she is like that, she won't be able to keep up. Since you have her already, you get to babysit her first."
"Oh joy," said Byakuya with a unusual sarcastic tone.
It was hours before they stopped running, and still they found no place to sleep for the night. Sephiroth and Sesshomaru didn't mind sleeping outdoors but the idea of that seemed to rub Byakuya the wrong way. He was a noble, how dare he sleep on the ground. I jumped from his hands and padded over to the tree Sesshomaru was sitting under. I bounded into his lap and began snuggling up to his hands. This caused the Demon Lord to pick me up by the nape of the neck and set me down away from him. I only sat there for a moment and tilted my head, perking my ears up before barking and landing in his lap again.
"Oh look she is playing with you," said Sephiroth.
"If you aren't careful I will send her your way," said Sesshomaru.
"What is she going to do snuggle me to death?" he replied, adding his sinister laughter at the end.
"What is bothering you, Byakuya?" asked Sesshomaru picking up me again and setting me away from him.
"We are sleeping outside, that is what," he said.
"Get used to it, there may not be anywhere," said Sephiroth.
"You dare," retorted the noble.
"Yes I did," smirked the ex-Solider.
They all decided that they needed a fire and some food at least so they split up. Byakuya went to get some water while Sesshomaru went hunting and Sephiroth gathered firewood. Byakuya and Sephiroth were the first to come back as they prepared the fire and Sephiroth lit it with materia.
"At least you are useful," said Byakuya tending the fire.
"And I am not?" asked a voice out of the shadows. It was Sesshomaru, carrying his Sesshomaru killed, it looked somewhat like a deer, only bigger, meaner, and had spikes along its spine,"I think this is eatable."
"So who is going to try and eat it first?" asked Sephiroth.
They all looked at me, each thinking a different thing. Sephiroth thought Genia pig, Sesshomaru thought stay away from me, and Byakuya thought if he is thinking what I am thinking he will be added to the fire. Using his claws, Sesshomaru sliced up the meat while Byakuya was in charge of preparing it. Since they had no idea if there were any plants they could use for seasoning without killing them, the meat would come out rather bland. While Byakuya was cooking, I tiptoed around the campfire and when I was sure he wasn't looking, grabbed a piece of meat in my mouth and began to run off with it. This caused some distress in the camp because Byakuya reached for me but missed, Sesshomaru had me sprint in between his legs, and when Sephiroth saw the commotion fell over laughing before having me land on his face and eating the steak. Sephiroth sat up rather quickly and caught me in his right hand by the nape of my neck and stared at me while the meat was sliding off his face.
"You..." was all he could manage to get out.
Byakuya mentally burst out laughing at the sight of the man being 'owned' as he heard Renji say sometimes, while keeping the calm exterior he usually held. Sesshomaru however smirked and mentally wanted to give me a treat for doing that to Sephiroth. Traveling with Sephiroth wasn't easy. He was bossy, manipulative, acted like he was higher than both of them, though neither of them were human to begin with, and droned on about his plans. The other two kept to themselves mostly and only spoke when spoken to. Mostly because Byakuya's noble background and Sesshomaru didn't really care. Before Sephiroth could say another word a puff of white smoke appeared and I was back to my normal self, only naked. Sephiroth dropped me instantly and Byakuya turned away, Sephiroth looked at the me, puzzled for a second. Recalling how he transformed, he kept his clothes on. I then began to freak out again.
"Omigah, where am I? Who are you people, and...why is it so chilly?" I said rubbing my arms, before realizing the long sleeved shirt I had been previously wearing was gone and I looked down and turned the very same shade of red as my hair.
Her head jerked up and her eyes locked onto Sephiroth's I then began screaming and running backwards on hands and feet, while my tail was trying to cover me up. When I bumped into Sesshomaru, I stopped and looked up at him before curling up into a ball and trying to cover myself.
"Byakuya, may I have your white jacket?" asked Sesshomaru.
"My haori? Here," he said taking it off and handing it to the demon.
"Why didn't you use your big fluffy scarf?" asked Sephiroth.
"That is a parasitic demon that can not be simply taken off. It is firmly attached to me," Sesshomaru replied draping the material over me.
I quickly put in on as soon as the fabric hit my head and I just sat there for a moment,"So um about you guys carrying me, thanks."
"We could have just left you behind," said Sephiroth which caused me to use her death glare on him.
Um I have nothing to hold this...together," I said hugging my belly with my arms so the fabric didn't fly open,"Why did I end up naked. Did my clothes fall off me when I transformed? Last thing I remember is Jingles over there cutting my face."
Sephiroth glared back at me for me statement,"Perhaps we didn't see them."
"So now that I has eaten that creature we know it is safe for us to eat," said Byakuya lifting the meat off the fire from the stick it was impaled on.
"Thanks, I really appreciate being a Guinea pig. I thought since you were cooking it, it was safe. That and I was starving," I said.
"You need something to tie that with, here," said Bayakuya undoing his Obi and handing it to me.
I took it in hand and tied it around my waist before instantly realizing whose clothes I was in and passed out. I woke two minutes later with Sephiroth's foot nudging my head.
"You killed her," he said,"Thanks pretty boy."
"You stomping on her face will help," said Byakuya.
"No if she was dead I would have sensed it and Tenseiga would have reacted," said Sesshomaru,"She probably passed out using too much energy transforming."
I jerked up and growled at Sephiroth and blushed,"I am up. Sorry about that. I have an issue or two."
"Explain," asked Byakuya.
"Um-do I um, have to?" I said turning more shades of red.
"Seems like she does that when she is excited," said Sesshomaru.
I shuddered as he hit the nerve dead on. I was just glad that my nose didn't bleed, recalling the many times hot men caused me to literally have a nosebleed and get weak. Now I was surrounded by three of them. Not the most fun and playful but they were still really hot. Then the thoughts of me maiming them started to surface and then I found my with a nosebleed. My hand jerked to cover the sight at all of them stared at me.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry," I panicked.
"What are you apologizing for? You are unwell," said Bayakuya standing up and walking over to her, kneeling down and feeling of my forehead.
My mind lost it. I froze stiff and stopped breathing during this process. My hormones screamed rape, and my mind screamed oh god he is touching me. I thought of the millions of obsessed fangirls peering into my soul trying to devour it to get to their men so I could calm down.
"You have a slight fever," he said taking his hand away from her head.
"Y-yeah," I said gulping hard,"Th-thanks."
"Don't overdo it pretty boy, I think she is fixing to pass out again," said Sephiroth reaching for his dinner.
Sesshomaru still stood there for some reason, but maybe it was because I was sitting on his feet. He cleared his throat and looked down at me. I realized what I was doing and hopped off the man and sat on my knees before reaching out for dinner. We ate rather quietly and I thought of trying to transform so I could snuggle up to one of them for the night. I couldn't do it now, out of modesty and cowardice, so I thought of what could have transformed me.
"Um, hey. Since I am kinda new and improved. I need practice with my abilities. I don't even know if transforming is all I can do. I mean how useless is that," I said.
"Oh you can do far more than transform but it seems that you blacked out in your first partial transformation," said Sesshomaru, "It is common for demons under stress to do so. Since you have those capabilities we can treat you like one of my kind."
My eyes wandered between the men and my brain wandered between the articles of clothing. Stuck here with three men, take advantage of I thought.
"So what is your name, you know ours, but we don't know yours," said Sesshomaru.
"Raven, my real name is Amber, but since high school I go by Raven. It was because I had my hair short and jet black at the time, but I dye it a lot, that is why it is red this time," I said.
"So you are like Kagome," said Sesshomaru.
"Not exactly Sesshy, but similar. I do come from a time like hers, but I wasn't transported into the past, nor do have have a huge crush on your brother, nor am I a priestess," I said taking a bite.
"Well when we are finished eating we need sleeping arrangements,"said Byakuya.
With either of you...oh god did I say that out loud? Nope alright we are good.
"As long as I don't have to worry about something crawling up my new outfit I am fine," I said finishing my steak.
"We need to keep watch, we don't know what is out there. With you being somewhat powerless, you don't have to tonight. Tomorrow you will begin trying to control your powers," said Sesshomaru.
"I have got first shift," said Sephiroth.
"Oh no you don't," I said, trying to be brave,"You will run. I know you mister and you are not leaving."
"Try and stop me," he said getting up and walking off.
I concentrated hard to try and get anything to work really. After a few seconds passed I got frustrated and threw my hand in his direction grunting. Suddenly a stone was flung from the earth and pegged Sephiroth in the back of the head. He whipped around and his blue-green eyes pierced through me as he glared.
"Look something useful...bye," I said running in another direction.
Sephiroth decided against giving chase, he knew I would tire out eventually and fall over. Then he would play good little murderer and end me. I stopped running and sat down paranoid as hell. No way in the Nine Hells would I be sleeping with him looming about. Next time, if there was one, I would chose someone who wasn't going to kill me in my sleep and was fun. Maybe Hisagi, defiantly no Miroku, perhaps Kouga, and probably...nope. Sephiroth was the most interesting thing in that area other than the females and Red XIII. Cloud was too emo...okay maybe cloud, and Zack was pushing the necrophiliac thing, I really didn't think Barret was my type, Cait Sith was a doll, Red XIII was a cat, and Vincient, okay defiantly Vincient. Well aside from the fact I wasn't sure if Sephiroth was himself or not. Either way he was hot...and I was screwed. Not only did I have freaky new abilities, I made a total ass of myself during the entire day. Maybe they would forgive me, I stared at Sephiroth, maybe not.
It wasn't too much longer before I found the most comfortable patch of earth and tried to sleep. Last time I roughed it, I slept on a tree root and was stiff and sore for a week. So hoping never to repeat the memory, I padded the ground for roots.
"What are you doing?" asked Sephiroth.
"Making sure I am not all stiff and sore tomorrow. Roots are a bitch," I told him, not looking up.
Yep no sleep for me but if I was going to survive tomorrow I would need some or I was toast. Three of the best swordsmen I know were going to be training me and all of them had some complex issues, but neither Sesshomaru nor Byakuya could compare to Sephiroth's god complex. So I would be enjoying every second I got to bring him down a level, and try not to get my head chopped off. I slowly drifted asleep and wondered what my friends in reality were doing.
