(A/N: And I'm back for chapter two! Yay! I'm so happy, I've already gotten two lovely reviews, and reviews are just so important to me. They tell you whether your story is good or not, they can help you improve it, and they're such awesome motivation. I mean-
Tomoe: You're rambling.
Me: What! No I'm not!
Mizuki: Don't listen to Tomoe! Your rambling is cute! And he's a stupid fox, so his opinion doesn't matter!
Tomoe: Why you damn snake!
(The two start fighting)
Me: -sweatdrops-
Nanami: Stop fighting! (Her Kotodama [word power bind] causes the both of them to stop in mid-strangling each other positions) Jeez, I look away for one second and the two of you are already fighting.
Me: -sticks out tongue at the two- Thanks, Nami-chan!
Nanami: (somewhat abashed) Hehehe... it was nothing.
Onikiri & Kotetsu: (pops out of nowhere, Nanami shrieks in suprise) To the story!
Mikage: (comes out of nowhere as well) Enjoy!
Me: Hehehe... -sweatdrops-

"Tomoe, your hair!"
Nanami had just finished getting dressed (after several tries ending in failure as Tomoe kept pouncing on her, ripping her clothes off, and constantly giving her mind-blowing kisses that...)
Ah, bad thoughts, bad thoughts! Nanami turned red and mentally shook her head; this was important and required her to... focus.
"You're-You're not my shinshi anymore, you're..., well, you!" Nanami's eyes were round in shock.
Tomoe looked at his hair, his eyes somewhat wide.
"The contract..." he managed to say. Nanami stared up at him with wide eyes.
"Tomoe, I order you to go to the other side of the room!" Her voice shook slightly.
He merely stood there, not comprehending why he wasn't moving from her command.
"...I can't believe it..."
"..."
She stared at him for a moment, him staring back at her.
"Are we no longer connected...?" Tears formed in her eyes.
Are... Did something happen? Did we...?
Tomoe seemed to recover once he saw her eyes water. In a moment he had her en-captured within his embrace.
"No... don't cry..."
Tears started to run down her face, and she let out a small sob.
"T-Tomoe...!" She wailed. If they weren't connected anymore... what would that mean for them?
He nuzzled her cheek gently, trying to soothe her. His fingers lightly clenched her sides.
"Don't worry, something as stupid as the familiar contract isn't going to to pull us apart; I'd rather die than let that happen." Nanami gasped and pulled away.
"No! Don't say that!" Her eyes were panicked. "I don't want Tomoe to die..."
His gaze became soft as he looked and want her, and with a small smile he said, "Stupid, who said I'd allow myself to die?"
"Hey! I'm not-" He cut her off with a chaste kiss.
"So we'll just go to Mikage."
"Eh?"
"He's probably already aware that we've slept together anyways."
She stared at him with wide eyes and and red face.
"Mizuki is probably aware too."
"...Huh?" She was becoming redder by the moment.
"And Onikiri and Kotetsu probably heard-"
"EHHH!?"
"...I see" Mikage adjusted his glasses while Nanami looked down at her knees, her face red. Tomoe stared at the god with a somewhat blasé expression.
"Nanami, may I see your neck for a moment."
Nanami's head snapped up. "My...neck?"
The blonde kami nodded.
Confused and embarrassed, Nanami pulled down the sides of her kimono's collar (Tomoe having dressed her in that a little while earlier in a soft, pale yellow kimono with a floral design and a simple jade green obi).
"Ah, there it is." Tomoe had stared at a spot on her neck and blushed slightly before turning his head to the side, away from Nanami's and Mikage's eyes.
"Hmph.."
Nanami blinked.
"Um.. I'm afraid I'm not following..."
The god laughed and gave her a smile.
"It's simple, really. Tomoe marked you, that's all."
Uhhh... What?
Mikage's smile faded somewhat, before his face became somewhat stern, realizing that Nanami still hadn't understood.
"...Tomoe?" He said in a hard tone.
"..."
"Did you mark her without Nanami's permission...?
He gave no reply, but Nanami noticed his tail stiffen. The fox knew something.
Tomoe felt the hairs in the back of his neck raise when an aura full of wrath came from the other two sitting in the room with him.
Tomoe turned slightly pale.
Oh no... not another rambling speech from Mikage! The last one lasted hours!
Tomoe swallowed thickly.
Damn it all.

(A/N: Ha-ha! Tomoe's in trouble! (I don't know why, but him getting in trouble always makes me laugh. And yes, I know, short chapter, but I'm often busy, and I wanted to update this soon.)
Tomoe: ...Evil woman!
Me: Ara? What's wrong, Tomoe.
(Tomoe sends sends me a death glare)
Mizuki: (in his babyish voice) Tomoe, you look as mad as a beast in a cage.
Tomoe: Uruse! Kono kusou hebi! [You damn snake]
(Mizuki smirks)
Mizuki: (sneering) What's wrong, Tomoe? Did I hit a nerve?
Tomoe: Snake!
(The two start fighting again)
Nanami: I said no fighting!
Mikage: (smiling) Ahh, aren't things just peaceful?
Me: Hehe! Right! Anyways, R&R!
