Here's Chapter #8, enjoy!

The two stared at each other across the flickering flames of the fire. Both wondering who
was going to talk first. Kirashu looked at the demon slayer and decided to start first
saying a little too harshly, "So, what are you woman? I mean, I know that you're human,
but your way too powerful to be just a human." He was surprised to see a smile play across
her lips as she replied, "You know, you would be surprised how many people ask me that
question." Her eyes became distant and she looked far off as she recalled her past, "It
all started many years ago, when I was just a child. After my mother and father were both
mercilessly killed by a demon I just, became terribly angry and sad. That's when I started
to develop these powers, which I think, were fueled by my rage and sadness. I took care
of myself, never being adopted by someone else so I learned to take care of myself
quickly, and never show my weak side. After many years of fighting demons I had become
almost as heartless as them, that's when I came across Kokiyu's village. I had saved many
other villages and refused to stay there overnight or become attached to anyone but, with
Kokiyu it was different. The little girl reminded me so much of me as I was when I was a
child that I immediately became attached to her, and her to me. My heart became soft again,
with some costs I had to pay in fighting but I'm glad it did."
/p
She turned her head and looked over at the
half-demon and he spoke seriously as he said, "I don't think you could ever become as heartless
as a demon, you have a heart which is pure and free of evil, if you didn't you wouldn't
be helping anyone in the first place." He blushed slightly after he said this and was glad
of the lack of light and the flickering flames of the campfire. "Thank you Kirashu, it is
great to hear such a thing said out loud." She now had to ask him about his past, and hopefully
he wouldn't sidetrack away from it. "Now, tell me about your past. Yokiysu is your half-brother,
is he not?" She heard Kirashu growl slightly as he said, "Unfortunately he is. Me and him
have tried to kill each other for years but lately he has been very interested in breaking
women spirit's and then disposing of them, so I have not seen him for a while until today."
'How terrible, his brother just breaks a woman's spirit and then disposing of her?'
Sarama shook her head and then asked another question which was nagging at her, "If you are
half dog demon, what is your other half?" He looked at her again, with a look of disgust
on his face as he replied, "Human." She didn't look too surprised, she had guessed it being
human but she wasn't sure. 'Why did he sound so disgusted with being half-human?' "Kirashu,
why do you sound so displeased with being half-human?" He looked at her with surprise and
anger on her face as he replied, "Why? Because humans are weak and fragile. I am neither
human, nor demon, none will except me. I have been mocked and attacked for what I am and
I just wish I could be all demon, so I could get rid of all of those wretched humans." Sarama
knew how he felt, but he wouldn't believe her. She walked over to the half-demon and felt
unsure as she placed her hand on his shoulder. "Kirashu, I know that you won't believe me
but I have gone threw the same things as you. I have been feared, and hated by demons, and
not accepted by people because of what I do and that I do it alone. But, people are unsure
and easily hate things which aren't exactly "normal," but you shouldn't kill them for that,
they are just afraid." He looked deeply into her beautiful blue eyes but quickly snapped out
of it as he shook off her hand and walked away saying a gruff, "Feh."
/p
Sarama knew that their deep conversation would end soon, she knew that Kirashu just didn't
trust people that well and she would have to work hard to break threw those barriers. What
she didn't know was that she had the same barriers for any man who was trying to get into
her heart. When Kirashu just walked off and said "Feh" she wanted to follow after him and
make him sit down and understand but she let him go, she felt surprised how great it felt
to just have as little contact as having her hand on his shoulder, and she deeply wanted to
embrace him, but she just kept it deep inside of her. Kirashu just shook off the strange
feeling he felt when he looked into her eyes and when she placed the hand on his shoulder,
but he quickly scolded himself for opening up as much as he did. He returned to his gruff
self as he said, "I'm going to sleep." The half-demon jumped up into the tree he had slept
in last night and quickly glanced at the demon slayer as she smiled and softly said, "Goodnight,
Kirashu." She slept underneath the tree he was above in and she felt herself smile at
the last thought of looking into Kirashu's golden eyes. Kirashu couldn't go to sleep as
easily, he kept on hearing her words play over and over in his head. 'Bah, don't worry
Kirashu, she doesn't know what she's talking about, she's just a dumb girl.' And with
that thought he slowly went to sleep. The last thought in his head as he drifted off
into a deep sleep was the demon slayer's beautiful blue eyes...
/p
So, we finally find out that Kirashu is dog/human, and a little more about Sarama's
past too. And now you know about Yokiysu's not-so-pretty past, eh? I hope you liked
this chapter, I really liked it myself, hehe.
