Unwanted Tears Shed
by Sarah
Chapter Name, Onisou appears again #28, enjoy!
=====================
Kirashu continued to dig his claws into his head in frustration as the pain increased and his memories continued to reappear and then disappear.
'Don't hurt that pretty little head of yours. Just stop fighting and it will be all over.'
'NO! I am not going to stop fighting, you're not going to get away with whatever you're trying to do to me.'
'I believe I am,' the demoness countered as Kirashu felt even more pain course threw his body.
Just then, an arrow flew towards the beautiful demoness and she barely dodged it as the arrow flew inches away from her face.
"What have you done to Kirashu?" The young woman asked in an angry tone as she prepared another arrow and stood there poised to shoot again.
Nasanna lost her concentration and Kokiyu broke the spell just in time as Kirashu stopped digging his nails into his head and his body relaxed.
"Kokiyu, what are you doing here? I told you to stay where you were," Kirashu said barely above a whisper as he slowly brought his head upwards.
"You stupid girl, this is none of your business. You interrupted me, you will pay a price for that," Nasanna said as she unsheathed her sword and Kokiyu watched as it became a black, sticky liquid and she slashed it across the air. The sword's power flew towards her and once it made contact with her she flew backwards into the nearest tree. The black liquid held her tight and immediately became dry, the young woman tried her best to escape from it but once she found she couldn't she finally ceased trying to escape from it.
"There you go, now that's a nice little girl. Now, let's see why you're here protecting him. Nasaou didn't tell me about a third girl."
The demoness walked over to the young woman, smiling as her fangs glistened in the sunlight. She brought her hand within the slit in the middle of her shirt and brought out a small crystal. The woman then brought her thumb to the middle of the young woman's forehead again and then pressed it on her crystal. Kokiyu suddenly felt very lightheaded and she could barely keep her eyes open as she watched the images of her when she was younger.
Images of her with Sarama, the demon slayer saving her village for the first time, the images came quickly and disappeared. Finally, the rested on a half-demon and a little girl scratching his dog ears, and then the images flew to the demon Onisou and their first kiss.
"Not that..." Kokiyu said weakly as her head began to hang and her eyelids began to droop.
Kirashu watched the kiss shared between Onisou and Kokiyu, he watched as at first the young woman resisted, and then quickly melted into the embrace, and also saw as she pushed him away and her eyes were filled with hurt.
'Onisou, how could you do that to Kokiyu?! I swear, if you ever lay another hand I will personally take it off with my sword.' The half-demon thought to himself as he growled out loud and jumped toward Nasanna who still held onto the crystal and was smiling evilly at the images.
The demoness looked up from the crystal and saw Kirashu jumping at her and immediately pinned him to the tree like she had with Kokiyu, making a *tsk, tsk, tsk* sound as she walked toward him.
"I forgot about you, shame on me. Shall we continue what we started without any interruptions or shall I continue with that naive girl?"
"Do what you want with me, but leave Kokiyu alone you damn wench!" Kirashu said with a louder growl as he saw that the young woman was recovering from whatever the demoness had done to her.
"I don't like that answer," the demoness said as she looked into the round, dark crystal and watched as the images reappeared again where they last left off.
"Stop! If I stop resisting whatever you're trying to do to me will you leave Kokiyu alone?
"Will you give me your word, you worthless half-breed?"
"Yes, I will. Just leave her alone, and let her go", Kirashu said as he watched Nasanna walk toward Kokiyu and press her index finger on the young woman's forehead. Kokiyu instantly seemed to fall into a deep sleep and then she walked over to Kirashu again.
"Now, let's get back to business. You shall not resist, is that so?" Nasanna asked as her violet eyes laid on Kirashu.
"Yeah, I won't. But, first what did you do to Kokiyu?" The half-demon asked as concern filled his golden eyes as he looked at the sleeping form of Kokiyu.
"I put her in a sleep, I don't want her interrupting us. I could tell she was ready to object. I am surprised you would protect such a pesky girl who you don't even love," the demoness said as her eyes scanned Kirashu. Her violet eyes seemed to look at him from head to toes with great interest, and he could almost see a sort of hunger and wanting in her eyes.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Kirashu shifted uncomfortably under the stare of the demoness, he wasn't used to women looking at him like that, especially a strange demoness.
"I knew a demon who looked like you. He chose a human wench such as you did, he seemed to have the same mishaps as you did, must be humans."
"Mishaps? I wouldn't say any of my experiences with humans were 'mishaps'. If I could I would never give up my memories or my time with Sarama, Siasku though..." Kirashu didn't finish, he hanged his head sadly and looked at the ground. 'I would change it if I had a chance with Siasku, she should have never met me. I wish she never did, I never wished to cause her any pain or hurt, but I did.'
"Well, let's continue with this, shall we?" Nasanna said as the dark crystal showed flashes of Kirashu's memories and quickly disappeared again. The demoness closed her eyes and the images appeared and reappeared quicker and their was sweat on her brow.
'This is harder than I thought it would be. Even though he is trying not to resist he wants to keep his memories. I'll have to do something drastic then.'
Nasanna kneeled beside Kirashu and brought his face towards hers, she slowly leaned in towards him and pressed her pink lips against his. Kirashu immediately growled at her, his eyes flashing dangerously as he immediately resisted but the next second his golden eyes became blank.
'So many emotions in one kiss, I envy that demon slayer who stole his heart. Maybe I can have him when Nasaou is threw the dead demon slayer and the reincarnation.' Nasanna thought as she turned her attention back to Kirashu.
"Now that's a good little half-demon. Come, we must see how Nasaou is handling your little human lover."
The demoness walked forward and smiled as Kirashu walked forward with her, though his head turned to look at Kokiyu and for a second he stopped. His blank eyes looked at the young woman for several seconds and it looked like he might break from the spell Nasanna had placed on him.
"Come Kirashu, if you worried about the girl she will be fine, I have no use of her," Nasanna smiled as she noticed this seemed to work and he followed her again.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sarama and Siasku immediately tensed at the voice which had interrupted their conversation. They didn't even notice the evil aura until he spoke, and Sarama immediately readied herself with a bow and arrow.
"Who are you, why do you bother us demon?"
Sarama asked as she watched the demon walked out of the shadows and saw that it was the demon which had the black cloak over himself, covering his facial features, and instead of his head hanged low he had a sick smile on his face and was walking toward them.
"I do not feel I wish to reveal myself yet, my dear Sarama. I have been wanting to introduce myself to your reincarnation," Nasaou said with a chilling smile on his face.
Siasku looked at the demon and her eyes narrowed as she unsteadily readied a bow and arrow, mimicking Sarama. "You are the demon who was watching Kirashu and I, aren't you?" Siasku remembered the evil aura which she felt and this definitely was the same demon.
Nasaou didn't answer the young girl and stalked towards the two, and surprisingly caught Sarama's arrow as it flew towards his heart and quickly threw it to side.
"Now, now, that won't work this time. I'm much stronger than I was before, but you can't remember what happened, can you?"
Sarama's eyes narrowed like Siasku's, and they looked like a mirror image of each other. 'I can't believe he stopped my arrow, who is this demon? And why does he seem so familiar, so evil.'
Nasaou now stood in front of the two, his hand reached out towards Siasku, smirking as he smelled immediate fear from the young girl.
"Leave her alone demon! If you are here for me, then leave her out of this," Sarama said as she grabbed an arrow again and used it as a weapon as she clenched it in her hand and brought it forward towards the demon's heart.
The demon slayer suddenly felt a terrible pain go threw herself and she first felt it in the scar on her arm and then it went straight to her head and she gripped her head as she fell to one knee. 'What's happening to me?'
"What did you do to Sarama?" Siasku asked as she looked down at the demon slayer but her eyes shot upwards as she felt a clawed hand on the side of her face.
"Not as beautiful as the original, but I'm not picky." Nasaou said as he hungrily licked his lips and leaned towards the young girl.
"No way!" Siasku said as she brought her hand to slap the demon but gasped as he caught it.
"I have a proposition for you two. I want to test that half-breed, he will come here with Nasanna and have a decision to make, Sarama or the reincarnation. The one which chooses will stay with him, the one which he doesn't, will come with me." Nasaou said as he stopped Sarama's pain and watched as the demon slayer looked up at him with narrowed eyes.
"And what if I refuse and kill you right now demon? You do not think that I can? I can tell you, I have killed many, and you are no different," Sarama said in a cold voice as she stood proudly again with her face titled at a defiant angle.
"My dear Sarama, though you are still strong, this body which you have now is much more fragile then when you were alive. And your reincarnation has no training and is weak, she would be a very easy kill."
Siasku's eyes narrowed even further and she gritted her teeth in anger as she brought her bow string taunt. 'I am tired of people calling me just a reincarnation! I do have a name!'
Nasaou merely dodged the arrow as it flew towards him and shook his index finger in a taunting manner as he smiled at the two.
"So close, too bad you won't have another chance," Nasaou said as he hold onto them both by their necks and tightened his grip, watching in sick satisfaction as they immediately grabbed onto his hand and tried their best to pry his hand away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Nasaou, I have the half-breed Kirashu," Nasanna said as her and Kirashu walked to where Nasaou was.
"Sarama! Siasku!" Kirashu immediately broke out of his trance, he jumped forward towards him but was blocked by Nasanna.
"Get out of my way wench!" Kirashu exclaimed with a loud growl as his golden eyes flashed red.
The demoness withdrew her dark crystal from within her clothes and tapped it with her index finger and the half-demon's eyes immediately turned blank.
"Let the half-breed out of the trance Nasanna, I want to play a little game with him. Do not worry, he will not come towards me when I can kill these wenches easily."
"Yes, Nasaou," the demoness said as she nodded her head and tapped the crystal again.
"Half-breed I have a choice for you. Your first love, or this reincarnation?" Nasaou asked with an evil smirk.
"I'll just kill you for ever touching them!" Kirashu took a step towards the demon but he immediately tightened his grip on Sarama and Siasku. Siasku let out a yelp in pain and gasped for breath, while Sarama merely winced in pain and tried harder to pry Nasaou's hand from her neck.
"You see half-breed, you come after me and they both die. I would hate to kill them so quickly before I get to play with them but it would be worth it to see the pain on your face again. It is a fair deal, whoever you choose will go with you, whoever you do not choose shall come with me."
"No! You can't kill them! Take my life, do whatever you want with me, but leave Sarama and Siasku alone," Kirashu pleaded as he looked at the two, it looked like they would faint any second.
"How noble, but as I said, that would make the game boring. Make your decision, or I shall make it for you."
'I can't just save one, I have to save Sarama and Siasku. But, how? How can I do it? Every second they're getting harmed even more by the second by that...'
"Sarama... Siasku..." Kirashu said barely above a whisper as he prepared to take another step towards them, wanting to anything to get them out of Nasaou's grip. Kirashu stopped himself when he saw Nasaou tighten his grip anymore and Siasku finally become limp in his grip and Sarama also became unconscious.
"NO!" Kirashu jumped towards Nasaou, as his golden eyes burned with hatred and he prepared himself to slash threw Nasaou. Again Nasanna tapped on her dark crystal, and stopped the half-demon just in time as he stood inches away from the demon.
"Bad, half-demon. He sure is quite hot-tempered, but nothing which my magic can't handle." The demoness said as she looked at Nasaou.
"It is my turn to choose, half-breed. Your time is up." Nasaou loosened his grip on the two women and they fell unceremoniously to the ground.
'Ah, the reincarnation is delightful, and pure, but Sarama cannot resist me as she did when she was alive. It will give me great satisfaction to strip her of her pride and her dignity, as many other things which I could not do when she was alive. And to repay her for killing me. Yes, my choice is the demon slayer.'
With this thought Nasaou picked up Sarama from where she was laying and threw her over his shoulder, smirking as he noticed there was no movement from the demon slayer. The demon also picked up Siasku and brought his other hand out to roughly caress her face and then threw her towards Kirashu.
"I shall have much fun with the demon slayer, till we meet again," Nasaou said as he nodded his head to Nasanna and she tapped the dark crystal once more and Kirashu first saw Siasku in his arms.
'Siasku? Why is she in my arms? The last thing I remembered was ... that demon asking who I was going to choose!'
Kirashu quickly tore his golden eyes away from Siasku limp form and growled menacingly as he saw Nasaou carrying Sarama over his shoulder and smiling evilly at him and then he disappeared with her.
The half-demon looked down at the girl in his arms, he was surprised to see her again, to be holding her again. He couldn't cover up the sadness within his eyes or the disguist which he held for himself for not being able to protect them, and not stopping Nasaou from taking Sarama.
Siasku finally awoke and opened her blue eyes to see Kirashu's golden eyes staring at her. He traced a clawed finger around the marks on the young girl's neck which Nasaou had left on her, frowning as he did so.
"He hurt you, and he hurt Sarama." Kirashu stated as he blushed that he had been tracing around the cuts in her skin.
"Yes, we tried are best to stop him, me and Sarama, but he stopped our attacks easily. Who was that demon, Kirashu?"
"I'm not sure, but I believe it was the demon, Nasaou. You should travel back to your villiage Siasku, it will be getting more dangerous, and you are all ready hurt." Kirashu told Siasku, trying his best to not show how hard it was for him to send her away to her villiage.
"No, Kirashu, I'm not going to go back to my villiage again. This Nasaou, whoever he is, needs to be stopped. He's a terrible demon, and absolutely sick." Siasku said determinedly looking at Kirashu as he bent his head and then turned it sideways.
"Listen to me you dumb girl! Go back to your village! Don't try and search for that damn demon Nasaou, and just forget about me!" Kirashu screamed out angrily. He immediately felt his heart sink as he saw the pained and sad look on Siasku's face, and he could see the tears forming in her eyes.
'I shouldn't have said that... But, I don't want to hurt her, I don't want her to get her hurt anymore. She may get killed by this damn Nasaou, and I would never forgive myself, EVER, if that happened. And if I feel pain and sorrow in my heart because I pushed her away and will never see her again haunts me everyday because of my choice, then so be it.'
"Kirashu..." The young girl said as she tried her best to keep her composure, but failed miserably as the tears began to fall and she fell forward into his arms and buried her head in his chest.
"I CAN'T go back! I just can't! I have nothing to live for! I have no family Kirashu, I have no one who protects me like you or Kokiyu, Kirashu. I'm going to travel with you and Kokiyu, I just have to!" Siasku said as she cried muffled sobs into his shirt and was surprised to feel Kirashu's hand on her back, patting her back in an unsure way.
'I never knew that she didn't have any family, like Sarama. She's so cheerful and bright all the time, I never imagined her to be without a family. I can't push her away, who knows what will happen to her if I do, it might be even worse if I let her stay with us.'
"If you are harmed, I am not at fault. You might be attacked if you travel back to our village, so I guess that I am forced to bring you along with us, you stupid girl." Kirashu said gruffly, as he quickly covered up his feelings and walked away from Siasku.
"Wait, Kokiyu... Kokiyu!" Kirashu stopped as he remembered that the young woman had been placed underneath a deep sleep by the beautiful demoness, and he bent down as he turned his head toward Siasku who was still standing still.
"Come on Siasku, if you are going to travel with us then hurry up and get on my back. I think Kokiyu might be in danger..."
The young girl ran over to Kirashu and wrapped her arms and legs around him and she felt him run quickly forward and in no time he was standing where Kokiyu was laying, though the half-demon's eyes widened in surprise as he saw a demon standing over her.
"Onisou!" The half-demon screamed out as he set Siasku on the ground and brought his hand around the handsome demon's throat and glared at him.
"I...know...where...he...is." Onisou choked out as he tried his best to pry Kirashu's hands away from his throat.
"Kirashu! Let go of him, please!" Siasku looked at him with pleading eyes and the half-demon dropped the demon on the ground.
"Know where who is, Onisou?" Kirashu asked with a low growl as he watched the demon cough and sputter.
"I know where Nasaou is, you half-breed."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Onisou appears again! Yes, I couldn't get rid of him, and I like him as a character too. I can't stand Nasaou though, (and he's my character! lol) I think he's a pretty good villian though, hehe.

Chapter Name, Onisou appears again #28, enjoy!
=====================
Kirashu continued to dig his claws into his head in frustration as the pain increased and his memories continued to reappear and then disappear.
'Don't hurt that pretty little head of yours. Just stop fighting and it will be all over.'
'NO! I am not going to stop fighting, you're not going to get away with whatever you're trying to do to me.'
'I believe I am,' the demoness countered as Kirashu felt even more pain course threw his body.
Just then, an arrow flew towards the beautiful demoness and she barely dodged it as the arrow flew inches away from her face.
"What have you done to Kirashu?" The young woman asked in an angry tone as she prepared another arrow and stood there poised to shoot again.
Nasanna lost her concentration and Kokiyu broke the spell just in time as Kirashu stopped digging his nails into his head and his body relaxed.
"Kokiyu, what are you doing here? I told you to stay where you were," Kirashu said barely above a whisper as he slowly brought his head upwards.
"You stupid girl, this is none of your business. You interrupted me, you will pay a price for that," Nasanna said as she unsheathed her sword and Kokiyu watched as it became a black, sticky liquid and she slashed it across the air. The sword's power flew towards her and once it made contact with her she flew backwards into the nearest tree. The black liquid held her tight and immediately became dry, the young woman tried her best to escape from it but once she found she couldn't she finally ceased trying to escape from it.

The demoness walked over to the young woman, smiling as her fangs glistened in the sunlight. She brought her hand within the slit in the middle of her shirt and brought out a small crystal. The woman then brought her thumb to the middle of the young woman's forehead again and then pressed it on her crystal. Kokiyu suddenly felt very lightheaded and she could barely keep her eyes open as she watched the images of her when she was younger.
Images of her with Sarama, the demon slayer saving her village for the first time, the images came quickly and disappeared. Finally, the rested on a half-demon and a little girl scratching his dog ears, and then the images flew to the demon Onisou and their first kiss.
"Not that..." Kokiyu said weakly as her head began to hang and her eyelids began to droop.
Kirashu watched the kiss shared between Onisou and Kokiyu, he watched as at first the young woman resisted, and then quickly melted into the embrace, and also saw as she pushed him away and her eyes were filled with hurt.
'Onisou, how could you do that to Kokiyu?! I swear, if you ever lay another hand I will personally take it off with my sword.' The half-demon thought to himself as he growled out loud and jumped toward Nasanna who still held onto the crystal and was smiling evilly at the images.
The demoness looked up from the crystal and saw Kirashu jumping at her and immediately pinned him to the tree like she had with Kokiyu, making a *tsk, tsk, tsk* sound as she walked toward him.
"I forgot about you, shame on me. Shall we continue what we started without any interruptions or shall I continue with that naive girl?"
"Do what you want with me, but leave Kokiyu alone you damn wench!" Kirashu said with a louder growl as he saw that the young woman was recovering from whatever the demoness had done to her.
"I don't like that answer," the demoness said as she looked into the round, dark crystal and watched as the images reappeared again where they last left off.
"Stop! If I stop resisting whatever you're trying to do to me will you leave Kokiyu alone?
"Will you give me your word, you worthless half-breed?"
"Yes, I will. Just leave her alone, and let her go", Kirashu said as he watched Nasanna walk toward Kokiyu and press her index finger on the young woman's forehead. Kokiyu instantly seemed to fall into a deep sleep and then she walked over to Kirashu again.
"Now, let's get back to business. You shall not resist, is that so?" Nasanna asked as her violet eyes laid on Kirashu.

Sarama and Siasku immediately tensed at the voice which had interrupted their conversation. They didn't even notice the evil aura until he spoke, and Sarama immediately readied herself with a bow and arrow.
"Who are you, why do you bother us demon?"
Sarama asked as she watched the demon walked out of the shadows and saw that it was the demon which had the black cloak over himself, covering his facial features, and instead of his head hanged low he had a sick smile on his face and was walking toward them.

"Nasaou, I have the half-breed Kirashu," Nasanna said as her and Kirashu walked to where Nasaou was.
"Sarama! Siasku!" Kirashu immediately broke out of his trance, he jumped forward towards him but was blocked by Nasanna.
"Get out of my way wench!" Kirashu exclaimed with a loud growl as his golden eyes flashed red.
The demoness withdrew her dark crystal from within her clothes and tapped it with her index finger and the half-demon's eyes immediately turned blank.
"Let the half-breed out of the trance Nasanna, I want to play a little game with him. Do not worry, he will not come towards me when I can kill these wenches easily."

"No! You can't kill them! Take my life, do whatever you want with me, but leave Sarama and Siasku alone," Kirashu pleaded as he looked at the two, it looked like they would faint any second.
"How noble, but as I said, that would make the game boring. Make your decision, or I shall make it for you."
'I can't just save one, I have to save Sarama and Siasku. But, how? How can I do it? Every second they're getting harmed even more by the second by that...'
"Sarama... Siasku..." Kirashu said barely above a whisper as he prepared to take another step towards them, wanting to anything to get them out of Nasaou's grip. Kirashu stopped himself when he saw Nasaou tighten his grip anymore and Siasku finally become limp in his grip and Sarama also became unconscious.

"Bad, half-demon. He sure is quite hot-tempered, but nothing which my magic can't handle." The demoness said as she looked at Nasaou.
"It is my turn to choose, half-breed. Your time is up." Nasaou loosened his grip on the two women and they fell unceremoniously to the ground.
'Ah, the reincarnation is delightful, and pure, but Sarama cannot resist me as she did when she was alive. It will give me great satisfaction to strip her of her pride and her dignity, as many other things which I could not do when she was alive. And to repay her for killing me. Yes, my choice is the demon slayer.'
With this thought Nasaou picked up Sarama from where she was laying and threw her over his shoulder, smirking as he noticed there was no movement from the demon slayer. The demon also picked up Siasku and brought his other hand out to roughly caress her face and then threw her towards Kirashu.
"I shall have much fun with the demon slayer, till we meet again," Nasaou said as he nodded his head to Nasanna and she tapped the dark crystal once more and Kirashu first saw Siasku in his arms.
'Siasku? Why is she in my arms? The last thing I remembered was ... that demon asking who I was going to choose!'
Kirashu quickly tore his golden eyes away from Siasku limp form and growled menacingly as he saw Nasaou carrying Sarama over his shoulder and smiling evilly at him and then he disappeared with her.
The half-demon looked down at the girl in his arms, he was surprised to see her again, to be holding her again. He couldn't cover up the sadness within his eyes or the disguist which he held for himself for not being able to protect them, and not stopping Nasaou from taking Sarama.
Siasku finally awoke and opened her blue eyes to see Kirashu's golden eyes staring at her. He traced a clawed finger around the marks on the young girl's neck which Nasaou had left on her, frowning as he did so.
"He hurt you, and he hurt Sarama." Kirashu stated as he blushed that he had been tracing around the cuts in her skin.
"Yes, we tried are best to stop him, me and Sarama, but he stopped our attacks easily. Who was that demon, Kirashu?"
"I'm not sure, but I believe it was the demon, Nasaou. You should travel back to your villiage Siasku, it will be getting more dangerous, and you are all ready hurt." Kirashu told Siasku, trying his best to not show how hard it was for him to send her away to her villiage.
"No, Kirashu, I'm not going to go back to my villiage again. This Nasaou, whoever he is, needs to be stopped. He's a terrible demon, and absolutely sick." Siasku said determinedly looking at Kirashu as he bent his head and then turned it sideways.
"Listen to me you dumb girl! Go back to your village! Don't try and search for that damn demon Nasaou, and just forget about me!" Kirashu screamed out angrily. He immediately felt his heart sink as he saw the pained and sad look on Siasku's face, and he could see the tears forming in her eyes.
'I shouldn't have said that... But, I don't want to hurt her, I don't want her to get her hurt anymore. She may get killed by this damn Nasaou, and I would never forgive myself, EVER, if that happened. And if I feel pain and sorrow in my heart because I pushed her away and will never see her again haunts me everyday because of my choice, then so be it.'
"Kirashu..." The young girl said as she tried her best to keep her composure, but failed miserably as the tears began to fall and she fell forward into his arms and buried her head in his chest.
"I CAN'T go back! I just can't! I have nothing to live for! I have no family Kirashu, I have no one who protects me like you or Kokiyu, Kirashu. I'm going to travel with you and Kokiyu, I just have to!" Siasku said as she cried muffled sobs into his shirt and was surprised to feel Kirashu's hand on her back, patting her back in an unsure way.
'I never knew that she didn't have any family, like Sarama. She's so cheerful and bright all the time, I never imagined her to be without a family. I can't push her away, who knows what will happen to her if I do, it might be even worse if I let her stay with us.'
"If you are harmed, I am not at fault. You might be attacked if you travel back to our village, so I guess that I am forced to bring you along with us, you stupid girl." Kirashu said gruffly, as he quickly covered up his feelings and walked away from Siasku.
"Wait, Kokiyu... Kokiyu!" Kirashu stopped as he remembered that the young woman had been placed underneath a deep sleep by the beautiful demoness, and he bent down as he turned his head toward Siasku who was still standing still.
"Come on Siasku, if you are going to travel with us then hurry up and get on my back. I think Kokiyu might be in danger..."
The young girl ran over to Kirashu and wrapped her arms and legs around him and she felt him run quickly forward and in no time he was standing where Kokiyu was laying, though the half-demon's eyes widened in surprise as he saw a demon standing over her.
"Onisou!" The half-demon screamed out as he set Siasku on the ground and brought his hand around the handsome demon's throat and glared at him.
"I...know...where...he...is." Onisou choked out as he tried his best to pry Kirashu's hands away from his throat.
"Kirashu! Let go of him, please!" Siasku looked at him with pleading eyes and the half-demon dropped the demon on the ground.
"Know where who is, Onisou?" Kirashu asked with a low growl as he watched the demon cough and sputter.
"I know where Nasaou is, you half-breed."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Onisou appears again! Yes, I couldn't get rid of him, and I like him as a character too. I can't stand Nasaou though, (and he's my character! lol) I think he's a pretty good villian though, hehe.
