I rule now, I am a Lady, I rule now...I rule now...

Kuda sat bolt upright as she felt something cold hit her face. She was about to slash that person's face off when her balled fists jumped back like a stretchy string. Kuda then noticed it was becuase she had a chain on her wirst, on both of her wrists in fact. She also noticed that she wasn't on her father's grand pillow, or even in a room; she was in Sesshomaru's cellar. Kuda moaned angrily and sadly, knowing that she dreamnt herself becoming her demon, her demon that didn't even exist on Earth anymore. Kuda shook her head to get rid of the water, but it didn't help much. She sneezed, and heard Sesshomaru chuckle. "What's so funny?" Kuda asked him. He was standing a little away from her, at the entrance of the cellar door. His his hair was fixed and styled into a high pony tail.

"It seems Shinku put you to sleep." He said.

"Put me to sleep," Kuda asked confused, and then remembered, "Oh, she hit me." Her cheek hurt again as she remembered what happened.

"You truly have dulled over time."

"What do you expect, Sesshomaru, I'm a human. Humans age for your information." Kuda replied angrily.

Sesshomaru snorted, "Not even a full human, not even a full demon, not a half-demon at all."

Kuda felt ashamed on that statment, not even knowing herself what she was. I was born a demon, she thought, so I must be a demon, right? "So, when will you let me out of here?"

"Not soon." Was his reply, and walked out. But just as he was half-way across his courtyard, he stopped, only turning his head back to see Kuda behind him, looking innocently at him.

"You know me better than that, Sesshomaru." Kuda said smirking, "I'll even make you a deal!"

"A deal?"

"I'll stay and serve your every wish, but only as a friend. If you intend me to keep me here as your slave, or even think that I'm your slave, expect to find me gone the next morning and truly dead for the rest of your life."

Sesshomaru sighed and thought, how did it come to making deals with humans? "Agreed. Do tell me what you dreamnt about?"

Kuda looked at him surpised, "How did you know I was dreaming about something," she asked.

"Does 'I rule' sound familar?"

Kuda's eyes shot wide open, and she smiled, replied laughing, "Oh, that silly dream! I dreamnt that I ruled you and your land, for all eternity!"

Sesshomaru growled angrily in response. "Oh, be quiet! You're so easy to offend; it was just a dream!" Kuda said.

Just at that moment, Shinku strode up to them, swiftly and elegantly. She glared disgustingly at Kuda, and walked to Sesshomaru's side, "SO, when will we kill her, Lord Sesshomaru?" She asked him softly and lovingly.

"Yes, Sesshomaru, when will you kill me?" Kuda mimicked Shinku as best as she could, but failed, making Shinku sound like a grown old man; but of course, that was her intent.

"Shinku, you are not to hurt her in anyway. She is...is..." Sesshomaru swallowed.

"Your friend." Kuda finished for him.

"Your friend!" Shinku shrieked.

"And your friend, too!" Kuda said, looking at Shinku.

"Don't make me laugh," Shinku replied snarling, "I wouldn't be friends with the likes of you!"

"Fine then," Kuda replied angrily, "then we'll be enemies, is that good enough for you Your Highanus!"

That name broke Shinku loose, and Kuda laughed as she ran with a Shinku chasing her. But Sesshomaru stopped Shinku, and when Kuda saw that she plopped herself on the dirt floor, smirking at Shinku who was lashing out at Sesshomaru. "I'll kill you," she screamed, "I'll destory your filthy mouth!"

"Sesshomaru already beat you to it." Kuda replied casually, 'inspecting' her nails.

Kuda choked on her laughter as Shinku turned on Sesshomaru, trying to lash out his eyes first. But it was no use, and in the end Sesshomaru actually had to run away a short distance from her, leaving Shinku screaming angrily in her place. "I had no doubt that you had a sexual relationship with that human slave!"

"I have had nothing with her! I wouldn't even dare touch her!" Sesshomaru defended himself.

"What about just this morning at the river," Kuda said smirking, "when I was bathing and you came hugged me, our naked bodies touching?"

Sesshomaru stuttered, and his maids and guards laughed at him. Sesshomaru blushed lightly and screamed, "Be quiet, and everyone get back to work if you value your lifes!" And just as he finished, Shinku attacked him.

Laughing, Kuda jumped up from the floor and ran at the two bodies rolling on the floor, starting a cheer with the maids and guards. Some cheered for Lady Shinku, and others cheered for Lord Sesshomaru. Kuda, who did she cheer for, you ask? She cheered for herself of course, why would she waste her breath on two demons fighting becuase of her? Kuda smiled evilly, her brilliant white teeth showing, her blue eyes sparkleing and full of evilness. I shall kill them, she thought as the crowd cheered louder, kill them, kill them all! Kuda knew that she was just like her father, his feminine twin. He loved anger, she loves it too, he loved hatred, she loves it too, he loved abusing, she loves it too, he loved having his way, she majorly loves that too, he loved tricking people, she especially adores that too, and he loved killing, and she, of course, loves to kill too. I may not be a demon, she thought, a demon who is evil, but a human is just as evil too, the crowd gave a loud cheer, a human can be so much more eviler. I am Kuda, she thought, I am a human-demon, making me the worse being ever alive on Earth! Sesshomaru stood in front of Kuda with blazing red eyes, and Kuda did not even know when he got there in front of her. She grinned wickedly as she looked at him. And, she thought grinning even bigger, I'll make Sesshomaru's life a living hell until I die for what he did to me.

"I have had enough of you controlling my life." He growled at her.

"What are you going to do about it, uh?" Kuda replied smirking. This is what I've waited for, she thought, finally it has come.

"Get out of my life, and never let me catch you in my sight, ever!" There, those words, she thought lustly, it's about time.

"Never." Kuda smirked at him evilly, quickly grabbed his hand and a blue light chained their hands together. "You see Sesshomaru," she said to him as he tried to take his hand back, "I have been in need of my demon and as you know it is dead!" Sesshomaru tried to struck her in the face with his free hand but she grabbed it, "My father was an evil demon, with the ability to change into another demon if he wanted", her hair started to turn silver like his, "I am him, Sesshomaru, I am a demon just like him, just a human I was becuase I copied it them all these years! I wanted a stronger demon, a better one, and I have finally found you! So thank you for freeing me, truly, and for a copy of your own demonic spirit! Expect to me soon, Lord Sesshomaru, for I have a terrible secret to tell you about me!" The blue light then exploded, sending Sesshomaru backwards. As Sesshomaru stood to kill her, she was gone. It's not Kuda, he thought as he looked at pulsing hand, it's not Kuda, it's Asuyana.

"KUDA!"


Pale blue eyes shot open, and tears began to run down her dirty cheeks, leaving one single clean-stain clear down her cheeks.
