"Impressive." The voice came from the young man standing behind Kagome. He was small in stature, maybe five foot three if that. Thin but muscular, with long black hair pulled back into a pony tail much like Kyo's hair. He had green eyes that seemd to sparkle in the afternoon sun. He was dressed in a black Hakama (Clothing men wore, much like Inuyasha's outfit), with a white under top. A gold roped belt was tied at his waist and his feet covered in thin black waraji, sandles made from straw rope that were the standard footware of common people, servants and buddhist monks.
Black fox like ears sat atop his head, twitching evey now and then as they picked up on distant noises thoughout the castle, he had a matching black tail that hung down past his legs, nearly draging the floor behind him. It was obvious from his apperance that he was a kitsune, in human form mind you, but still a kitsune. He didn't speak much though he eyed Kagome carefully, almost as though he didn't entirely trust her yet. It was hard for anyone to see him and actually believe that he was a servant, and Sesshomaru's personal servant at that. He didn't seem like a youkai that would easily take orders from anyone and he certainly didn't apear to be some mindless lacky as Jaken was. There was somthing about him, somthing in his mannerisums...he did seem somewhat sad at times but he also seemed to be someone not to be reckoned with, he almost seemed...dangerous. His eyes were narrowed as he watched Kagome but when they shifted breifly over Kyo, they softened somewhat, even seemed kind but he quickly returned his gaze to the human turned Hanyou and frowned.
"Perhaps Sesshomaru-sama has less of a chore at training this one than he first thought, but then again I can't realy see the use of forming alliences with a woman. Your time would be best served cleaning and reering the children"
Kyo narrowed his eyes at the other demon,
"Sani, be nice. Kagome is our guest and Sesshomaru-sama demaded that we take excellent care of her."
Sani raised an eyebrow at Kyo's words,
"Yes."He said in a harsh whisper, "I'm sure he did. At any rate, Sesshomaru-sama demands that the woman be well rested and on time for her training tomorrow morning. He expects obidience and punctuality and if you fail to meet these requirments my lady Kagome, you will have to answer to me and believe me. Remeber this my Lady, if my Lord is not happy I will see to it that you are quite miserable." He looks again to Kyo and for a moment he almost smiled, almost.
"When you are done Kyo, come see me. We need to talk." His tone had changed as he spoke to the other Youkai, he spoke to him with longing though his expression changed once more to a look of despair as he turned as walked back the way that he had come, fading into the shadows as the darkness swallowed him entirely. He seemed a rather dark Youkai, depressing and sad. Even the afternoon sun had shyed away from him but once he had departed, the sun was back as warm and bright as ever. Sani seemed to take the cold and darkness with him where ever he went.
