Cringing when it's breath washed over them, she pushed herself as far away from the creature as she possibly could, even if it meant pressing herself against Loki.

"What happened to the brave little priestess? Do not tell me you fear it." His mocking tone did not ease her suspicions one bit.

"...Not really, no. It could use with some breath wash though..."

As sad as it was, she would rather deal with Naraku's miasma than that thing's breath. Miasma would be purified before she breathed it in, but there was not much she could do against bad breath.

"Your father and my dearest brother already took down one too many. I think it would only be fair to even the odds."

Her entire spine grew rigid at his words. Thor was this maniac's brother?! If this turned out to be nothing more than another grudge between brothers... She was sick and tired of getting stuck between feuding brothers over stupid matters.

"Really? How do you plan on doing that?"

"Like any mindless beast, they will require food of some sort, why not feed them the delicacy that is you?"

"I wouldn't try it, unless you want to give it terminal indigestion." She had lost count on the number of creatures and beings that nibbled, chomped or swallowed her whole.

"You truly are your father's daughter. I will be sure to let him know of your fate."

And then, just like that, he tossed her at the creature.

"Not again," she whined.


AN: Forgot to update yesterday... cause I got out earlier than usual. Which is odd cause I kept thinking of posting the update earlier... well guess that didn't go according to plan. Read, enjoy, and review!
