Unwanted Tears Shed

Chapter Name, Torture and Stolen #4, enjoy!
Siasku had survived the rest of the day, she didn't know how but she did. The young girl was now sitting inside of Kokiyu's hut, enjoying the fire which was burning. Kirashu had left not too long, though the expression on his face was, strange, to say the least. He looked almost sad, or something in that nature, and had abruptly left, leaving her with Kokiyu, which she didn't mind, the woman was very nice to her. Though Kokiyu acted cheery on the outside, she was worried about Kirashu, the look on his face was just so sad. She knew that the half-demon was thinking about Sarama, and was probably searching for her grave by himself. 'He probably doesn't want Siasku to become too attached to him, which was he's being such a jerk to her, or at least, I hope that's why.' Siasku noticed the young woman's change from happy to rather somber and immediately asked what was wrong.
"I'm fine, just thinking to myself, don't worry. How is your wound?"
Siasku smiled at Kokiyu saying, "It feels fine, it'll probably be all healed tomorrow. All of my cuts and bruises heal really fast, it was really strange at first but I've gotten used to it."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kirashu had wandered throughout the sleeping village and finally found the deceased demon slayer's grave. He looked at the fresh flowers which had been laid upon it, and smelled the strong sent of Kokiyu, knowing that the young woman had probably visited the grave, many, many times. He knelt by the grave, bowing his head in respect. 'Sarama, I told you never to die on me, and you promised you wouldn't, why did you have to?! And then I meet this young girl who looks almost exactly like you... Is she here to torture me?! Like your beauty tortured me everyday since I met you. I thought we were destined to live happily together, with children with my 'cute little ears' and your beauty, I never wanted you to leave me.'
"Why did you have to leave me?!" The half-demon screamed out the last part he was thinking, but luckily none of the villagers had woken at his outburst and they were all still peacefully sleeping.
Kirashu fell to the ground and felt physically and emotionally exhausted, feeling the threat of tears which might fall, but he refused to let them fall, so he just looked sadly at it and then left, knowing that he wouldn't be able to stay there much longer without breaking down. As he left the grave site he heard a loud commotion, a huge BANG, and turned his head toward the source of the noise. There was a demon which had crashed into the forest not far away from where Sarama's grave was. At first the demon kept his eyes closed, when he opened his eyes they were bright red and very big, the demon had long claws, long brown hair, ragged clothes, and an aura around him which was completely evil. The demon glided towards the grave and Kirashu immediately told him to stop and drew his sword.
"I have no use for you, you pathetic half-breed, I have come for the dead demon slayer, Sarama's ashes."
Kirashu immediately jumped at the demon, bringing his sword down on the demon yelling, "No way in
hell are you going to get anything of Sarama's!" Kirashu was immediately blown backwards, and he hadn't even made contact with the demon as he flew backwards into the nearest tree.
"Damnit!"
The half-demon cursed. Kokiyu had heard the racket, and all of the other villagers had too, as they ran out of their huts to met the foe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kokiyu looked at the demon, and something told her that Siasku should stay hidden from it.
"Siasku, stay here."
And with that the young woman grabbed her bow and arrows and headed toward the demon.
"After years of searching, I finally found it. The grave site of the powerful demon slayer."
The demon took out the sword which was by his side and brought it into the ground, as it left a huge crater he jumped into it and grabbed the pot which was now only slightly covered with the dirt. The demon grabbed the pot and the soil, jumping out of the crater and speaking in an evil tone as he said, "These ashes now belong to me, and there is NOTHING which you can do about. I, the demon, Hainasou."
And with that the demon became a red sphere and disappeared threw the forest. Kokiyu sent arrows at it, but knew it was hopeless, the demon had disappeared, but they would find it. She ran to Kirashu and noticed that he had awoken again and was looking at the young woman with fire in his golden eyes.
Kokiyu felt her shoulders slump at his intense glaze and knew what he was going to ask, "Yes, it got away, with Sarama's remains."
Kirashu stood up and looked at Kokiyu, his eyes seeming to burn threw hers as he said, "We need to get them back then."
The half-demon started to run after the demon's scent but Kokiyu immediately called to the demon saying, "Wait! We'll go after him in the morning, okay?"
Kirashu started to argue with her but she just raised her hand and said in a soft tone which showed the sadness which she felt, "Listen Kirashu, I feel the same about Sarama as you, not exactly, I know. But, we need to REST, and like I told you before I need you to help me watch over Siasku, she may not be Sarama, but she will be in lots of danger if any other demons attack her, and I can't protect her by myself."
Kirashu stood there for a few seconds, seeming to be torn, when he finally answered her request, "Fine, I'll stay. But, once morning comes we go after that damn demon!" Kokiyu smiled and nodded at this and headed back to the hut, while Kirashu slept on top of the tree which he had used to spy on the demon slayer when they first met.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Siasku watched the whole entire scene, the demon grabbing Sarama's ashes, it turning into a red sphere and disappearing into the forest, and then Kirashu and Kokiyu talking about something. Kokiyu walked back to the hut and she saw Kirashu jump into a tree and assumed that the half-demon had fallen asleep in it.
"Kokiyu, what happened? Why did that demon take Sarama's ashes? That thing was really creepy looking."
The young woman smiled at Siasku saying, "Yeah, I don't know why that demon took Sarama's remains, all which I can say is that it isn't good. Try to get a good sleep tonight though, tomorrow we're going to find that demon."
Poor Kirashu, tormented by the loss of Sarama, running into Siasku, and now this happens. I'm so mean with my poor characters, and I think I have a sad twist figured out for the ending, bah, who am I kidding, I don't know how to make a twist, lol.
