"Kyo why are we doing this?" Yuya asked. Kyo looked at her and he really thought about it. What am I doing with her? She's stubborn, defiant and loud. Why am I with her right now? Why have let her live? She causes me nothing but trouble. She's a… "Weakness."
"Did you just use weakness in the same thought as yourself? The proud Demon Eyes Kyo say he has a weakness?" Yuya interrogated. His answer was a kiss on her forehead. He also wasn't moving his lips away anytime soon.
However Yuya did. She gave him a defiant look and said, "I want answers, Kyo." He smiled and said, "Yes. And it's all you fault." The words' meaning sunk in, he was admitting she was a weakness. Unfortunately she didn't understand exactly what he said. "SO sorry I get in your way of becoming the strongest,"Yuya snapped. Kyo couldn't figure her out sometimes. He watched as she started to head to the shore.
Kyo grabbed her wrist as she turned to look at him she noticed something. His face was stoic like always but it actually reflected his emotions. He looked in pain and murmured, "I tell you I love you and that love makes me soft, a weakness. You're always in danger because of me, and you do the rational thing and walk away. Unfortunately I can't let you."
Yuya tilted her to the side and innocently asked, "You love me?" Kyo gave a chuckle and nibbled her neck, jaw line, earlobe and bottom lip in answer. "Kyo can we um go to an inn?" He took her hand and took her to the edge and they both climbed out. They hurriedly dressed and headed to the nearest inn.
They walked for an hour before they reached an inn. It was a enormous traditional Japanese inn. The giggling Yuya wrapped her arms around Kyo's and pushed him toward the door.
The inn keeper perked up in surprise at customers. He was an old man with a receding hairline. "Welcome to my inn would you like two rooms?" Yuya grew beet red as Kyo said, "What would we do with the extra room?" Yuya hid red face in his sleeve. The inn keeper was surprised but laughed it off and gave them one room. He led them towards the room and cautioned, "If you hear any noises just let me know or if you notice anything any funny at all, again just let me know. Here you two lovebirds are." He walked away as Yuya kept from murdering the unknowing inn keeper. "He's old he's going to die soon or later anyways," Yuya reasoned. "I refuse to be called a lovebird or any other nonsense." He had started to drag her to the slowly disappearing man but stopped when he heard.
"I guess he was right about the two rooms?" He looked back at her and saw it was her or killing an old man. He sighed and followed Yuya into their room.
They pretty much attacked each other when the door closed. Kyo grabbed her leg and hitched it up until they heard a moan. "Yuya calm down dear lord I know I'm great but try and show some control." Yuya gulped and screeched, "THAT WASN'T ME!" Kyo covered his ears and glared his eyes seemed more on fire than usual.
She jumped when heard a scraping noise and more moaning. Yuya jumped towards Kyo, who stepped back and let her fall on her ass. "Kyo," she growled as she kicked out at him.
Now my racing filly is kicking out. No shoes for her. He laughed at his unspoken joke which didn't settle with Yuya as she again threw another tantrum, kicking out over and over. She came close to clocking him in the pride and joy, but Kyo caught her by the ankle and spun her so either one of her legs was on either side of him.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH! Kyo stop behave!" Kyo had pulled her by the feet and put her waist right by his. She had her arms trying to keep her measly clothing from falling. "Kyo," she laughed trying to kick and keep everything covered. He let go of one ankle and pulled her shoulder up. She gladly wrapped her arms around his neck, finally upright. She giggled and gave him pecks on lips and the tip of his nose.
A loud shriek that didn't belong to Yuya erupted from down the hall. Yuya gripped Kyo's neck so hard it nearly suffocated. He pried her arms from off his neck and threatened, "You idiot if you ever do that again I'll do the worst things to you could even imagine. It was probably another idiot like you staying here." Horses spook at some of the most basic things such as a scream. Brain stop associating her with a horse that needs to be broken in, although the riding her part doesn't sound too bad. Stupid brain.
Another scream pulled Kyo from his dirty thoughts when Yuya again tried to choke him but a glare in her direction made it clear it was a no-no.
"Kyo that screaming is creeping me out. Can we go to another inn?" Yuya pleaded. "No but I'll go check things out. Would you feel better?" Kyo reasoned. "No then I would be by myself with some psychotic killer!" Horses can be afraid of something else killing them and not think about their own owner or rider. "Because being with the Demon Eyes Kyo is so much better right?" he sarcastically said.
He waited for a response to hear, "I never really thought about it that way. Hell now that you mentioned it I would be safer with the serial killer." He could tell she was joking and she slipped her hand into his.
They slipped out into the hall and glanced in each room. Each room held no one. They checked all 200 rooms to return to theirs. They were so tired they both plopped down onto the futon. Kyo and Yuya were both just about to fall into a deep slumber when they heard that damn screaming again.
"We checked every room and there wasn't one soul in this damn inn! Who the fuck is screaming!" Kyo yelled. "Well right now just you," said a young girl. Kyo and Yuya turned to look back at her. Kyo pointed his Tenrou at the young girl. Her brown eyes widen I surprise as she threw herself on the ground and started begging for forgiveness. "Kyo be nice just because we were too tired to notice her," Yuya chastised. Kyo grunted in response and again he realized another thing. People say horses are good judges of character and are trusting until you give them a reason otherwise. Brain I thought we were going to stop comparing her to livestock. "My name is Aiko," the young girl supplied. "Did I ask your name?" Kyo snapped but he put his Tenrou down with a glare from Yuya.
"I'm Yuya and this is Kyo," Yuya responded, "Are you finding the source of the screaming?" At the mere mention of the screaming her face became pained.
"Don't you know this inn's story?" Aiko asked. Yuya glanced at Kyo who took the indifferent approach and she shook her head no. "This is the famous Hakai Hotel. Everyone was slaughtered in attack by a horde of thieves. Everyone except my father. The current owner of the inn," Aiko barely held back unshed tears. "Why?" Yuya couldn't help herself.
Curious. Brain stop it now. Never. Am I really argue with my own brain? Listen to the story. Kyo sighed in defeat.
"It's said that the horde of thieves were famous and the old owner of Hakai was a part of their gang. But he turned on them for money which he used to buy Hakai. So one day the gang escaped their imprisonment and searched for their old accomplice. When they found out his inn was almost in ruins they made a plan. They decided to make him happy and when he couldn't be anymore happy then they would attack. They told people about how great Hakai was so more people came, including my mother who he married. He was one of the richer people in these parts. They were blessed with two sons and myself. Years later when I was ten I met one of the gang members, not that I realized. His name was Daisuke. He was kind and sweet but it was all a trick. I thought he was the love of my life. He helped me realize how childish I was. On my brother's fifteenth birthday they attacked. They started with the back rooms moving savings our for last. They charged into the room. I still didn't realize their nefarious plot. I had gotten up to see my beloved covered in blood, my dear Daisuke. hiccup When I got up he just stabbed me in the stomach without taking his eyes off mine. Then he laughed and said he could never love a kid like me. hiccup So I promised myself if I couldn't love neither could anyone else."
She looked up at Yuya and launched at her but missed when Kyo grabbed her and ran for the door. "Which way is the exit?" Kyo asked. "You don't know either?" Yuya yelled. He growled and ran to the right. Yuya looked back to see that not only was Aiko, the dead girl following them but so was everyone murdered that night. Kyo took another right and kept tugging Yuya along. They had run into the lobby. "We're saved," Yuya gushed. Kyo dragged her to door but the damn thing wouldn't open. "Hakai…Hakai I think that sounds familiar," Yuya mused.
Kyo turned around to see a legion of undead quickly approaching. He was no idiot and knew he couldn't kill what was already dead and tried to think. He turned back to the door and slashed and kicked it down. As soon as she saw an opening Yuya took off with an unhuman amount of speed with Kyo trailing behind. Neither one stopped until they were back on the path that had the hot springs on the side.
"HAKAI! That's that haunted inn!" Yuya cried with delight at the remembrance. Kyo glared at her and retorted, "You couldn't remember that a little quicker!" Yuya smiled apologetically and wrapped her arms around him and reached up to kiss him when Kyo pushed her back slightly.
"Every where I take you, you bring trouble with you. Can't even get laid with your stupid antics," Kyo grumbled.
He did allow hand holding and hugging but he drew the line there. Not that it didn't go unnoticed by the group once they had caught up. Even though she got angry, she forgave him at night.
The group had realized something was up and when Kyo was unreasonable they put Yuya in the equation. It went along the lines of Kyo we would love to go faster but Yuya is lagging behind because of her cursed fatigue. And that in turn made Kyo happen to realize that he wanted to rest. Unfortunately what the group said was true, Yuya had wanted to keep him happy. Not that she wasn't rewarded for her cooperation. Finally one day when he could wait no longer able to stand resting he grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder. To the rest of the groups dismay they had to go faster now that the slowest was being carried by the fastest.
"Kyo why are you carrying me? I'm not even tired for a change." Kyo dropped her and death glared at the group. Who in return found a reserve energy source and decided to use it. They practically ran all the way to the next town.
"Finally we get to sleep in a town, in an inn with women!" Yukimura exclaimed, "A girl for everyone! I'll pay."
Then a thought donned on Yuya Will Kyo chose someone over me now. Someone he can actually have…
"Women what is taking you so long?" Kyo whispered from behind her, his hands wrapped her waist. He started nibbling her. God why does this always feel so good?
"Kyo what are you doing to my beloved Yuya-han?" Benitora cried. He advanced toward Kyo but stopped when he felt the tip of Tenro on his throat. His demonic eyes piercing into Tora's soul. Yuya spun and held onto Kyo's hand. Kyo looked at her, her silent pleading was enough. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and started to the inn.
"Pay up SUCKAS!" Tora hollered. "You pushed him to claim her I'm not payin you nothing," Sasuke reasoned. Everyone nodded in agreement and treaded after the disappearing couple.
