Unwanted Tears Shed

Chapter Name, An evil presence #13, enjoy!
The four of them traveled to another campsite, Kirashu didn't like that Onisou seemed to be rather interested in Kokiyu, but the young woman didn't seem to mind so he just kept his growling inaudible.
"Really Kirashu, I can hear your growling, why are you so bothered by Onisou being nice to Kokiyu?" Siasku asked, giving the half-demon a teasing smile.
The half-demon made sure that the two were listening to him as he said, "Well, Kokiyu, is well ... like a little sister to me, I've known her since she was pretty young."
Siasku's smile broadened at this, "Aww, that's so sweet!"
"Well, only a little sister could annoy me as much as she did when she was young," the half-demon said with a huff.
The young girl rolled her eyes at this and looked at Onisou and Kokiyu, who seemed to be engrossed in whatever they were talking about, and Siasku caught some of their conversation. "I still don't see why you would want to travel with us, would you like to refresh my memory?" Kokiyu asked, looking at the handsome demon.
"Well, you might need my help, and how could I not travel with such a beautiful woman?" Onisou heard a growl from behind him and added, "And such a hostile and hot tempered half-breed."
Kirashu's growl deepened and he spoke threw clenched teeth as he said, "You haven't SEEN hostile."
Siasku grabbed Kirashu's arm as she brought him toward herself, she then held onto his hand and began to un bandage his hand, revealing barely noticeable cuts. The young girl began to unconsciously trace his hand where the cuts where, her small finger lightly tracing nothing in particular after she had done that, not noticing the small blush which was forming on the half-demon's face.
She soon noticed what she was doing and quickly brought her hand to her side as she also blushed lightly and walked off saying, "Um, well, looks like you were right Kirashu."
Kirashu noticed the annoying smirk on Onisou's face as he passed the demon and immediately said, "Nothing happened, she was just checking my cuts I gave myself. So, wipe that annoying smirk off your face."
Onisou just smirked even more at this and replied, "You should stop paying attention to me and pay more attention to your woman."
Kirashu growled at this and spoke in a tone which only the demon could hear as he said, "She is NOT my woman." The demon only replied with an unconvinced, "Sure..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The four soon set up camp, Kokiyu and Onisou mostly talked, but Siasku stayed unusually silent and Kirashu sat in the nearest tree, thinking about the demon which had killed Sarama and oblivious to anything around him.
'Well, Onisou and Kokiyu are talking, Kirashu wouldn't care if I went for a little walk so I think I will.' The young girl snuck away from the camp and started walking away, admiring the beauty of the forests as she took in the pine scent and listened to the birds chirping. She soon was fingering the bows and arrows on her back, deciding to try to shot an arrow for the first time in her life. She finally figured out where everything was supposed to go and brought the bow string taunt, letting go of it with an "Ouch!" as she accidentally cut her finger and the arrow only flew a few feet forward.
'Darnit, I guess I'll never be the superb fighter Sarama was, some reincarnation I am. I can't even shoot an arrow right.'
Siasku decided that she wouldn't try anymore and soon placed her arrow on her back and started walking forward again. The young girl looked down at her hand and noticed how the small scratch was almost completely healed.
'It's always weird when that happens, I get a small scratch and it heals in like, seconds. And a bigger cut only takes a few days too. I thought that I had gotten used to it but it's still very strange to me.' Siasku thought to herself as she came upon a small cliff with a beautiful view and decided to sit down and look at it, somewhat wishing that Kirashu was there but knowing that the half-demon was probably preoccupied with his own thoughts.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Onisou was talking about that Nasaou looking for a crystal, and I know what crystal he's looking for than, the crystal on Siasku's necklace, the girl defiently needs as much protection as possible now.'
Kirashu's nose picked up the faintest scent of something familiar, and when he realized what it was he jumped forward and out of the tree. 'It's Siasku's blood, but just a little, where did that girl go? And why did she go without anyone?'
Kirashu looked around the campfire but there was no Siasku, just a demon and young woman looking at him strangely.
"Kirashu, what's wrong?" Kokiyu asked, her eyes suddenly full of concern as the half-demon was looking around everywhere for something.
"Siasku, where is she? Did you see her leave?"
Kokiyu looked around but suddenly realized that the young girl was gone, "I'm sorry Kirashu, I didn't see her leave, I'll go with you to find her if you want."
Kirashu immediately shook his head and began to take off as he said, "I can find her myself."
"I wonder what he's going to do when he finds the girl..." Onisou said, looking back at Kokiyu.
"What do you mean? Bring her back here, of course."
The demon just shook his head at her statement and question, smiling slightly as he said, "You really are a pure mind, aren't you?"
"I'd like to think so," the young woman said, blushing slightly at his comment.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Dumb, stupid girl! If she got hurt, or some demon is attacking her, I swear to God I'll rip the thing to shreds so quickly it won't even have a chance to look at me!'
Kirashu finally arrived where Siasku's scent ended and landed behind her, saying a quick, "Hey!"
Siasku had been so relaxed and unaware of the half-demon's movements that he scared her, making her jump up to see her assailant was and losing her balance as she began to fall backwards. Before the young girl could scream out a small, "Help!" a strong hand grabbed her arm and stopped her from falling any further. Siasku opened up her eyes to see who had saved her and was greeted by Kirashu's golden eyes. Without a second thought the young girl jumped into the half-demon's arms, wrapping her arms around his neck and covering her face in his hair.
"Kirashu, you saved me! If it wasn't for you, I'd... I'd..." Siasku couldn't finish her sentence, but she knew what would have happened, she would be dead, falling into the cliff below and not being able to save herself. Kirashu realized this and wrapped his arms around the young girl as he held her tightly, feeling her heartbeat quicken and he felt his quicken with hers.
'You almost died, the same way Sarama died. I would never let that happen to you Siasku.' The half-demon thought to himself as he unconsciously took in the young girl's scent and relaxed at the smell of it. Kirashu reluctantly broke the embrace, noticing that the young girl now had a tears falling down her face and he lightly brushed them off saying, "We better head back to camp, jump on."
For a fleeting second Siasku felt a shiver run down her spine and she felt a strange feeling that someone evil was watching her. The young girl looked around for the source of her discomfort but found no one as she decided that it was just her and rubbed the few tears that were still falling down her face, smiling at Kirashu as she wrapped her arms and legs around him and he took off towards the campsite.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once they arrived there he gently set her down and leaned against the tree he was last in, watching as Kokiyu immediately noticed the young girl's tears and ran to hug her asking her what was wrong.
"Nothing's wrong, I'm fine, just crying for no reason," Siasku said, sniffling slightly and giving the older woman a reassuring smile.
"Well, okay." Kokiyu smiled at the younger girl and then laid down to go to sleep, Onisou did the same thing as he laid against the nearest tree and closed his eyes, leaving the two the only ones awake. Siasku looked at Kirashu, who had jumped up into the tree he was resting on before and who was now staring up into the stars above.
'Am I the only one who felt that, horrible, evil, presence? It was so terrible, I usually don't feel things but someone was watching me and Kirashu back there, I just know it, but who? It wasn't Sarama, I don't feel that kind of feeling when she's around, so what was it?' Siasku slowly fell asleep, her mind still reeling with questions about the evil presence she just felt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nasaou watched the young girl which looked so much like Sarama and the half-demon which he could of sworn had broken, embrace each other. He smelled the fear which went threw the girl as he knew that she felt his presence, and watched with amusement as she searched for him. He saw as the young girl gave up her searching and wrapped her arms and legs around the pathetic half-demon, and watched as they disappeared from his sight.
'The only way the pathetic half-breed could have broken the spell which I placed on him was to see Sarama alive again, but that young girl wasn't the demon slayer, so is she the reincarnation?'
The demon thought to himself as he smiled evilly as he said in a low tone, "Your happiness is limited half-breed."

Dun, dun, dun! Evil, evil, Nasaou. And if you were reading from my first story Onisou is the last demon which attacked Sarama, and peeked at her, and paid the price for peeking. Anyway, hope you enjoyed the chapter, I say it's one of my longest, hehe. Oh yes, and InuYasha is back on tonight, I'm so excited! Woo hoo! *dances*
Next Chapter:
Chapter Fourteen, The Hot Springs:
Siasku and Kokiyu walked to the clearing which had the hot spring, breathing in the hot air and both were smiling at the sight. "Nothing beats a bath!" Siasku exclaimed, promptly taking off her clothes and easing herself slowly into the warm water with a satisfied sigh. Kokiyu did the same, promptly taking off her shirt but after she did this the young woman stood there for a few seconds as a breeze picked up and blew her long hair to the side, revealing a rather large scar on the her right shoulder.
