Author's ramble: Ya didn't think I was finished did ya? Oh nooooo!
The Bandit and the Lady
By Jade Matsuri
Winter. It snowed heavily in Konan. Koji shivered even though he was wrapped in warm blankets and a naked elf was snuggled next to him.
He hated winter.
The naked elf stirred. Her hair was sky blue and spread over her in strands. Her eyes, though still groggy from sleep, began to glitter. She saw Koji shiver and wrapped her arms around him. She kissed his lips and they lingered like this Koji was sure he was warm.
"Sakura," he breathed, "gods I hate winter. . ." Sakura smiled.
"I know something that will help. . ." She whispered. Koji smirked.
"Yeah?"
"Put some clothes on."
***
Qiu Ying brooded. Never had he been so humiliated in his life! And by bandits for Suzaku's sake! Yes, he brooded. He still had a full year before- ---- he had an idea.
"Guard!"
"Yes sir?"
"Bring in Seiryu no Oni." The guard hesitated.
"But sir.it's too dangerous. Shouldn't we----" Qiu Ying glared at him.
"Are you questioning my orders?"
"No sir! I'll bring it in at once!" The guard bolted from the room. Qiu Ying smirked in smug satisfaction.
Yes Sakura, he thought, you'll soon be mine again. . .
Genrou and Koji went on a raid with some of the boys while Sakura stayed behind. She wandered around the fortress with a curious eye. She passed a group of bandits talking. They silenced themselves as she passed and resumed when she went around the corner.
"Ain't that Koji's girl?" She heard one ask.
"Yeah. I know she has a great time all night."
"Shaddup. She can hear ya."
"So? It's the truth!" Sakura turned another corner and rolled her eyes.
"Aniki, ya think Qiu Ying's gonna come anytime soon?" Genrou asked as the group of bandits made their way slowly up Mt. Reikaku. Koji snorted. It was only natural for Qiu Ying to wait to come up with something.
"Yeah, he'll come." Koji replied, sounding distracted.
But he won't be alone.
Qiu Ying looked at the tall shadow standing before him. He smiled at the demon. He knew it by many names.
"Welcome, Oni no Seiryu, I trust you find everything to your liking?" He asked the shadow. The demon pulled back its hood revealing a beautiful face. A man's face.
"Anything in Suzaku's country will NEVER be to my liking. What the hell have you summoned me for?" Qiu Ying hesitated. Obviously he was dealing with someone beyond his control. He stood and faced the demon.
"You and I both hate Suzaku's country equally but we also know this is the best place to gather elves. My wife was stolen from me by bandits." The Oni snorted.
"You want me to rescue your bride? You are indeed, very pathetic. You fear mortals." The Oni began to leave when Qiu Ying told him to stop. The Oni turned on him.
"How can you possibly trust that I won't take your lovely bride for myself? Obviously you know my reputation." Oni said. Qiu Ying smiled.
"How much do you hate the Celestial Warrior Tasuki?"
Sakura was dozing off while trying to pay attention to Koji's exciting day. She was so tired lately.
".and then we----Sakura?" Koji paused his story and caught Sakura as she finally fell over, sleeping as if there were no tomorrow. He sighed. Sakura had been sleeping heavily since their first night together.
"Koji," she mumbled, "make love to me.please." Koji shook his head. Then, he lay her down to sleep.
The Oni no Seiryu was not one for big titles so he took a name. He called himself: Riyanu. He laughed. The name had a certain sex appeal to it. He liked sex.
A lot.
"So, Tasuki's still makin' trouble? Well, we'll soon take care of Mt. Reikaku. And everything on it." He went on horseback, he passed through town and drew tons of women towards him, a power he had developed over the years. He could have any woman he wanted and from what he had heard of Sakura, he wanted her.
