Sarama just stared at the half-demon, not sure what to do, as he inched closer and

closer to her face. Her heart was beating so fast that she was sure Kirashu could hear it.

'What do I do? I've never had a guy kiss me before, let alone a half-demon.' She felt

herself finally leaning in too, mesmerized by the half-demons golden eyes, as all thoughts

seemed to be erased. Their faces were just inches apart, staring at each other and Sarama felt

herself hesitate for just a second when Sarama heard Sosana, "What are you two doing...? Oh,

I see, I'll just leave you two." Kirashu and Sarama both blushed deeply, though the demon

slayer seemed to be a deeper shade of red as she stood up muffling out an, "I'm sorry."

Kirashu just watched her walk away, he didn't know what had come over himself, usually he

was much better controlling his actions, though he had no control when he felt the beautiful

demon slayer on top of himself, smiling down at him. Sosana broke into the half-demon's thoughts

as he said, "You dog, you came real close to getting her too, though I think she might of

been double thinking at the last second." Kirashu growled deeply, "Nothing happened!" He

followed after the demon slayer again, resisting the urge to punch the smirking pervert

right in his face. The half-demon and Sosana caught up with Sarama and saw that she was just

standing there looking at something. When they were by her side again Kirashu looked over at

her face and saw that she was smiling, he then looked down and saw why. "Well, there's your

village."

/P

Kirashu also felt himself grinning happily, "Great! We can finally get rid of this pervert?"

Sarama punched him in his arm harder than she would normally and gave him a glare. Sosana

just shook his head at the two, he'd probably never understand these two, and walked down

into the town. "Lady Sarama, Kirashu, are you two coming?" "Yes, I guess we should, I need

to get some more arrows, since I have been using a lot lately." She looked over at Kirashu

as she said she was using more and then followed after Sosana. "Hey! Don't I have a say in

anything?" Sosana and Sarama turned around at the same moment and replied, "No." They both

looked at each other rather startled and then started laughing. "Sorry Kirashu." The demon

slayer muffled a few more laughs as she tried to regain her composure and walked into the

village. Once they were inside the village Sosana left the two to speak to some people,

Kirashu followed Sarama to find whoever supposedly sold the best arrows in the village.

The half-demon was used to people gawking at him, pointing at him, and whispering to each

other, he overheard some of the people whispering, "A demon and what looks to be a demon

slayer, how strange." "They are walking so close together, as if there is no difference

between each other!" Kirashu's dog ears twitched in annoyance at them, but Sarama seemed to

hear the people whispering and smiled encouragingly at the half-demon and walked even closer to

him, determined to ignore the men and women who were whispering and pointing at them.

Sarama quickly got her arrows and left, she knew that the half-demon was getting rather tired at

the people in the village, and rumors would probably spread quickly that a powerful woman

demon slayer and a half-demon were lovers. 'People, they can be so close minded. And I know

people would spread rumors like that, not that it's true.' Sarama

decided to find Sosana again, with the arrows she needed bought her and Kirashu had no reason

to stay at the village any longer.

/P

She called out Sosana's name and saw him talking to several woman, smiling flirtatious way

and recalling his amazing escape from the demon's who had captured him. When he saw the

demon slayer he excused himself away from the women and smiled at Kirashu and Sarama.

"So, Lady Sarama, will you be staying?" "No, I just needed to get a few more arrows, and I'm

afraid if I stay, well..." The demon slayer didn't finish her sentence, not wanting to explain

about maybe demons coming after her, and especially not wanting to explain why they would.

"Listen, if you don't mind Lady Sarama, may I talk to Kirashu alone?" Sarama looked taken

aback by his request but nodded and left them alone. "Kirashu, I'm sorry if I bothered you

in the beginning. But, Lady Sarama is one amazing woman, remember to take good care of her,

and try not to bicker too much." Kirashu just stood there, unsure what to say at this other

side of Sosana. He was ready to just say, "Feh." But decided not to and just nodded and

said, "I will." Sosana nodded his head and they walked back to the demon slayer, a silence

of understanding between the two. "Well, Lady Sarama, I guess this is farewell. It was

great to see such a woman of beauty again." Kirashu growled at his comment but nodded

at Sosana and the young man nodded back. As Sarama and the half-demon were leaving the

village she smiled as she commented, "Well, you two seemed to be getting along quite well at

the end. What did you talk about?" "Nothing." Kirashu looked ahead, not trusting himself to look

into the demon slayer's eyes. The half-demon felt himself completely relaxed walking next

to her, and didn't even notice scent of his half-brother until it was too late. The full-demon

grabbed the demon slayer, carrying her away as he covered her mouth but not before she

yelled out, "Kirashu!" The half-demon didn't know what to do, he immediately yelled, "Sarama!"

But she was all ready out of sight, Kirashu just stood there a few seconds, completely

stunned at what just happened, but immediately headed off to find his brother and the demon

slayer. 'I swear, Yokiysu, if you do anything to Sarama...'

/P

Yokiysu dropped Sarama on the ground, gracefully walking away from the woman and turned his

back to her. "What do you want from me? Why did you kidnap me?" The demon slayer momentarily

stopped asking questions as the full-blooded demon raised one clawed hand. "I have heard

rumors of you from other demons, and how your blood ... seems to make demons stronger, is

this true?" Sarama was very surprised at the full-blooded demon talking to her casually

and not grabbing her by the throat or digging his claws into her. "I do not know if it is

true or not, I've never let a demon do such a thing as taste my blood, ever." Yokiysu

turned around to meet the demon slayer's eyes, and Sarama saw the same heartless eyes

as before. Without the full-blooded demon attacking her she was able to study more of his

features. She never noticed before but the demon had very faint, almost washed out, blue

stripes on both sides of his face, and a faded blue circle in the middle of his forehead

which was somewhat covered by his bangs. The demon slayer was surprised she didn't notice

these facial features before but she was just so angry before and didn't really get a second

to look at the full-blooded demon. Yokiysu looked at the woman now studying him like he was

a piece of meat and growled slightly. "What are you staring at, wench?" "Um, nothing, it's

just ... why do you have those markings on your face?" What markings?" "Well, the stripes

on both sides on your face and the circle in the middle of the forehead?" Yokiysu gave the

demon slayer a look which an adult would give to a pesky child and spoke in an annoyed

tone of voice, "They are the marks of royalty. My father was a very powerful demon, and

royalty. With his unfortunate demise I got the land and his estate, but there is one thing

which I still wish to have, which is why I have you here." "And what would that be? You seem

rather powerful to me, not to make your ego any bigger." Sarama was surprised not to have the

full-blooded demon at her throat with her statement, but Yokiysu didn't touch the woman and

answered her question. "A wish to have a dagger. But this dagger is not like any other ordinary

dagger, it can kill a demon or human with one touch of the blade." Sarama just stared at the

handsome demon and immediately thought he was lying. "Are you sure you aren't looking for

a sword? I have been with Kirashu for a while and I have never seen him carry, or attack

anyone with a dagger, but he does have a sword." "Of course I know he has a sword, wench,

but I doubt he knows of the dagger, or knows of it's powers." Sarama felt herself lost in

thought and didn't even notice that the full-blooded demon had landed right in front of the

demon slayer and sniffed the air. "You have my brother's scent all over you, what were you

two doing?" His eyes narrowed as he looked closely at her and watched her face grow redder.

"Nothing, we didn't do anything..." Yokiysu just raised a delicate eyebrow but then returned

to his original subject. "You are a strange woman, you carry a sword much like the dagger,

but yet you never touch the opponent with your sword, and with what I've heard you don't

even get drenched in your victim's blood. But yet, your blood is sought after by demons

because of the immense power you hold within your frail body." Sarama's eyes grew wide with

what the full-blooded demon was saying, and the conversation they were holding. Yokiysu

seemed to become uneasy with himself being able to talk to his half-brother's wench so easily

and quickly said, "You're bait until my half-wit brother finds you. I know he'll get here

as quick as he can to save you but his speed is nothing compared to mine." "You know, I

don't like to be used, especially as bait." Sarama glared into the full-blooded demon's eyes

and set her jaw in a determined way. But Yokiysu only turned his head and spoke in a cold

tone, "I don't want to be stuck in your company either, but until my half-wit brother comes

you are my captive."

This sure was long, sorry if it's a bit too long, hehe.
