Sins of Blairwood-19

"Normal Speaking." *Speaking in Japanese*.

~Family Reunion: Pt3~

*What are these?* One of the Yokai questioned.

*Um… children, I'm assuming.* Another said.

*Yeah, but what kind of children? They both smell of human, but one of them smells of Yokai, and the other smells of Demon from the west.* A snake with a woman's head exclaimed.

*Wait a minute.* The floating head Yokai exclaimed.

*Is there something interesting about us? We're hybrids.* Senshi said, surprising them with his fluent Japanese.

*Pale skin, long black hair, black eyes, white dress, gasp and black dress shoes.* The floating head woman exclaimed, examining Erma. "Are you Erma? You must be Erma." She said excitedly.

"Yeah, and I'm her boyfriend Senshi." He exclaimed.

"Warrior huh?" The red skinned Ogre said. "You don't seem like much of a fighter."

"Wanna test me?"

"Oh I like this kid." The Ogre smiled.

"AAAAAH." The floating head woman screamed excitedly hugging both Erma and Senshi in her body's arms. "Oh my gosh, you're so much cuter than I could have ever imagined Erma. An' you're already in a serious relationship at such a young age? Oh that is so adorable."

"Wait, Erma as in 'Emiko's Daughter?' Erma?" The Ogre asked.

"I know right? Look at her, just like little Emi back in the day."

"Wo-ho, you're right." The Ogre said. "That's… actually kind of freaky."

Senshi struggled in the Yokai woman's arms, before he reached for his bracelet and removed it, beefing up with his body growing hotter as he grew in size, forcing the Yokai woman to let go of them, before he grabbed Erma, and jumped back, away from the crowd. Emiko and Sam had made the smart decision on investing in some pants that could accommodate Senshi's growth whenever he removed his power dampener, so the only thing torn was his shirt.

"Okay, someone please tell me what's going on here." Senshi said, before Erma slapped the bracelet back on him. "Thanks Erma."

"Oh my, was that Sunshine? I haven't seen that power since the Holy War centuries ago." The Yokai in a suit said.

"Oh Boo." Mitsu said, revealing she and Momo were in the rafters. "Looks like they found the adults."

"Just when they were starting to be fun to." Momo said.

"Mayumi, isn't this great?" The floating head woman asked, turning to the faceless yokai woman. "That's what I thought to."

"Will someone please explain what the hell is going on?" Senshi questioned.

"Ena, even if that is Emiko's daughter, we're complete strangers to these children. Strangers who've been violating their personal space, and rambling nonsense to them. The boy's acts of concern are justified at this point." The yokai woman in the suit said. "Don't you think we should introduce ourselves, or at least find Emiko for confirmation? She must be around if the little one, belongs, to her."

"Oh, right. I'm being an idiot aren't I? My bad. Hehehe." Ena chuckled nervously before turning to Senshi and Erma, only to find Senshi was being squeezed tightly by the snake woman yokai. "Rin what are you doing?"

"This little one is hiding something." Rin said, using the tip of her tail to remove Senshi's sunglasses.

"Hey give those back." Senshi exclaimed, struggling in Rin's grip, his eyes closed shut, but even with them closed, it was easy to see the dark veins traveling down from his eye sockets.

"Rin, give those back to him now." Ena said, in a scolding tone.

"C'mon child, show us what you've got under those lids. Show us what you're hiding." Rin exclaimed, before biting his shoulder.

"GAH." Senshi cried out, his eyes shooting open, revealing the black sclera, and the scarlet pupils.

"So, your demon power is enhanced." Rin said, putting the glasses down, and unwrapping herself from Senshi. "Question is, which Demon Group are you part of?"

"That's enough of that." A familiar voice to Senshi said as a rubber hand stretched out and wrapped itself around Senshi and Erma, bringing them back, and dropping the Oreo girl in Emiko's arms, while putting Senshi on the ground. "Just what do you think you're doing?"

"Benny." The Ogre said.

"Kentaro." Ben greeted, the duo slamming their forearms together, creating a shockwave.

"Huh, similar to Grandpa Ban and Grandpa Meliodas." Senshi exclaimed.

"So what are you doing here Ben? It's been a while, how've you been?" Kentaro asked.

"Things could be better Kent old pal." Ben sighed. "I've got something I wanna ask you later, but first I believe explanations are in order. Like why your sister bit down on my nephew."

"The little tyke's Kuroko's kid? I'll be, no wonder he's a feisty one." Kentaro laughed. "I'm sorry about that old friend. Rin saw Senshi was hiding something, and when she discovers something new, she's adamant about finding out what it is."

"No joke." Ben said, looking to Rin.

"Could somebody please explain to me, what in the world is going on?" Senshi asked for a third time as Sam applied a bandage patch to his shoulder.

"Hold still." Sam said.

"You know the wound's already closing right?" Senshi inquired.

"Erma, Senshi. I'd like for you to meet my brother and sisters. Erma's aunts and uncle. There's Aunt Fumiko, Auntie Ena, Auntie Mayumi, and Uncle Kentaro, the big oaf in the funny leopard pants." Emiko introduced.

"Ey, don't diss the pants sis. You know you dig 'em." Kentaro smiled before he hugged her. "It's so good to see you again, I've missed you."

"Just a heads up Sam. You better get ready for an hour of people hugging her." Yori said, extending her neck out to Sam.

"Oh I get it. I'm just trying to take this all in." Sam said.

"Erma, what's the matter?" Emiko asked, noticing her daughter examining Kentaro for a minute

"She's uh… a really curious one, isn't she?" Kentaro asked, before Erma went to Senshi and whispered in his ear.

"Oh, Erma your mom said that's your Uncle, he's my uncle's friend. Apparently our families know each other more than I initially thought." Senshi said.

"Aww, the poor thing looks confused." Ena said.

"Or she's just appreciating her uncle's good looks." Kentaro said.

"We all know, that's highly unlikely brother." Fumiko said.

"Psh, says you." Kentaro said.

"Sorry Kentaro, it looks like it's just a misunderstanding." Emiko said, figuring out what Erma was talking with Senshi about. "She thought you were dad, that's all."

"That old geezer? Come on, how can I look anything like him? It's the nose isn't it?" Kentaro asked.

"Bro. Trust me. You can never match Pops' nose." Yori said.

"Excuse me." Rin's voice came out over the crowd, making everyone look at her while she was wrapped around Sam. "What is this doing here?" She questioned, glaring at him, before the tip of a spear was right in her face, and she looked to Senshi who did not look happy with her.

"Woah, woah, woah. Is that?…"

"A human?" Ena finished.

"That weapon." Fumiko said. "It's the Honored Weapon of the Fairy King, ruler of the Fairy King's Forest."

"It most certainly is a human." Rin said sniffing Sam. "An' he's got the stench all over him for it."

"My cologne doesn't smell 'that' bad, does it?" Sam questioned.

*Is that who I think it is?* Ena asked Fumiko.

*Possibly.*

"Uh, Rin if the spear in your face wasn't any indication, you might wanna let him go now." Yori said.

"No living human should ever know about this place, let alone be here." Rin said.

"Please excuse me Ma'am, but you're squeezing a little too tight." Sam said.

"I don't think you're getting the memo, Meat." Rin said. "This is the part where you start panicking." She exclaimed, before dozens of sharp tipped spear like locks of hair, pressed into Rin's face.

"An' this very observant one Erma, is your Auntie Rin." Emiko said getting Rin to look at her. "Now Rin, can you be a dear, and let go of my husband?"

"Come again?" Kentaro asked, as Ena gasped.

"Cute joke. I didn't think you'd grown a messed up sense of humor over these past years." Rin said, squeezing tighter on Sam, before she felt the steel of Senshi's spear at her throat under her chin.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Emiko asked.

"It's true Rin. He's the real deal." Yori said.

Rin looked to Emiko and saw that she was serious, before she reluctantly let go of Sam, letting him breathe a sigh of relief.

"In all fairness, by back was kinda killing me from the trip here, I think you helped straighten it out. So thanks… Miss."

"Hmph." Rin just turned away from him and slithered off past Erma. "I guess this explains your odd smell then, Hybrid."

"So what if she's a hybrid?" Senshi asked, putting his shades back on. "I'm a hybrid. An' I'm proud of it."

"Of course you would be, child of the Demon King." Rin scoffed.

"Descendent actually." Ben exclaimed.

"The Reunion's already starting off, wonderfully." Rin exclaimed slithering away.

"Okay. Note to self. Get some better cologne." Sam exclaimed, before turning to the other Yokai in the room. "So you're Emiko's family huh? I've heard so much about you guys. It's… It's seriously an honor." Sam said bowing to them. "I'm Sam, Sam Williams." He got a bit confused when he didn't hear a response. "Am I doing this wrong?" Sam questioned. "I heard bowing was more preferable than a handshake in Japan."

"Oh, no you're good. I'm the one being rude, sorry." Ena said before her head started circling around Sam. "It's just… I knew Emiko married a human, but I guess just actually seeing you here. It's just… wow. She actually did it. Just… wow."

"Is that a good or bad wow?" Sam inquired.

"Oh, I'm not saying that as a bad thing. I always welcome a new member to the family." Ena said.

"Well, I'm very happy to be a part of it, Miss." Sam exclaimed, as Kentaro was just looking at them.

"Look at that Fumiko, I was right on the nose. She brought her husband with him. Isn't that…"

"Inconvenient." Fumiko said.

"You guys must be so tired from the long trip you had. All, six of you?" Ena pondered. "Where are your sweet little girls Yori? They're not sick are they?"

"Oh don't worry, they're here. In fact they're gonna appear right in front of us in just a few seconds." Yori said.

"Welp, I'm bored." Mitsu said.

"Same." Momo agreed.

"C'mon let's go see what this dump has to eat." Mitsu smiled.

"I think your mother is calling for you." The girls turned around, to see Ben's face, and his neck looked like their mother's as he extended it. "Should I tell her you two wanna be grounded for the whole trip?"

"Aunt Ena." Both girls said, appearing in front of Yori, much to her surprise, before looking to Ben, who still had his neck extended as he brought his head down.

"Mitsu, Momo. Come give auntie a hug." Ena smiled.

"You're a Rokurokubi to?" Yori asked Ben.

"Nope sorry." He apologized, cracking his neck. "That was just the power of the Gum-Gum fruit. It turns my body to rubber so I can do stuff like that." Ben explained. "I have all the Devil Fruit powers, because I ate the Akuma Tree. Had to turn it to saw dust to do so, but I managed."

"Yeah, this guy right here is the walking definition of OP." Kentaro said, pulling Ben into a single armed hug.

Ben laughed as he managed to get himself free of the manly embrace, before he turned to look at Senshi, who was interacting with some of the others.

"Senshi." Ben said. "There's something we need to talk about."

"Okay?"

Ben turned to Emiko, Sam, and Yori, who nodded their heads in understanding, before Yori turned to Fumiko.

"We should give them a moment alone. This is kinda personal for both of them." Yori said.

"Alright." Fumiko said, as they began their plan on Emiko to the main building.

After the others left, Ben sat on the ground with Senshi following suit, neither one of them noticing that Kentaro was right outside the door, having stayed behind, because he was concerned about his friend.

"So, what did you wanna talk about Uncle Ben?" Senshi inquired.

"Senshi…" Ben paused for a moment, having second thoughts about telling him, before he steeled his nerves, and looked his nephew in the eye. "It's about your mom."

"What about her, did the authorities catch her again?" Senshi inquired.

"No kiddo it's…" Ben stopped, as he sighed, and pulled Senshi in for a hug. "I'm sorry kid. But she's never coming back. Someone did something very bad to her, and… she's no longer with us."

Senshi couldn't understand what Kotaro meant by that, before something clicked in his head, and he hugged Ben back, as he began to cry. Kentaro stood outside, his eyes over shadowed with grief and anger, before he walked away, needing some time to process this, and a drink.
