Blood
SilverAssassin: Hm..I need something to type. Lil drama here, Misa didn't make me type this chapter! Accomplished me.
-Songy song-
It was nightfall and Koneko was yet to return. Sesshou-Mara delicately told the "pathetic humans" that she was fine. In truth, she was; merely bathing in the hot springs at the moment and getting as pruned as possible. Silver glanced at Sakura, who was yawning and shifting to get comfortable against Hal. He was already asleep, leaning on the wall. Kagome was asleep with Shippou in the other room, Sango watching over them.
Silver felt something inside her saying it was time to go out. She did it every night. The moon would be high in the sky, and she would need to be outside. Of course she knew what it meant, but she resisted.
Silver was hungry.
-Heaven bent to take my hand
And lead me through the fire
Be the long awaited answer
To a long and painful fight-
She silently moved the bamboo pelt and stepped out into the cool air of the village. There was barely any sound, except the crackle of fire; someone stepping on sticks and stones; scurry of smaller prey from predator. Okay..A lot of noise. She inhaled deeply and exhaled, giving her bangs motion. Her eyes tinted red as she walked through the village. She could smell them. The little children she could devour only to be even more hungry and go on a blind hunt. More red pooled her gray eyes as she thought about it..She didn't even know how close she was to invading someone's home.
Just a taste.
It says.
A little sip won't strike a vein.
No one will notice.
Come on, you haven't fed in forever.
You are weak.
You need it.
One child drained, no one will miss it.
Pick a little sick one.
-Truth be told I've tried my best-
They all yelled in her head causing her pupils to dilate and her eye color to be a glowing blood red. Her fingers formed a tight fist, digging sharp claws into the skin.
Silver was breathing over a child. A little girl, who was sleeping soundly. The only sound in the hut was the intruders ragged breaths. She looked up and opened her mouth, for her fangs growing grew uncomfortable. Silver quickly turned back to the girl--her prey. In the motion she caught a glimpse of herself in a small mirror. The monstrosity she was. That made her freeze in her act to grab the child and sink her fangs in the delicate skin. She instantly ran out as swiftly as she walked in.
-But somewhere along the way
I got caught up in all there was to offer
And the cost was so much more than I could bear-
Silver ran until she stopped in a clearing where the moon was shining enough to give her silver hair a perfect shine. It made her skin look extremely pale. That would change before she brought her own claws down to her own arm. She cut viciously. Blood splattered her face and clothing as she moved to her other arm. She drew a line with her claw and then drew two. She crossed them a connected them. Silver grabbed her armor with a grunt and threw it. She was only left in a bloody white shirt and black pants and her ankle boots. She calmed down after standing there in complete silence. She had disturbed the night with her ugly presence. Silver would disturb more nights...She plopped down on her rear and hugged her knees with bleeding arms.
-Though I've tried, I've fallen...
I have sunk so low
I have messed up
Better I should know
So don't come round here
And tell me I told you so...-
Her eyes slowly changed back to the lifeless color of gray as she stared, dazed....
-*-
Koneko got out of the hot spring and put on her outfit. She started walking back to the village. She fell back into a tree when a chunk of metal collided with her forehead. She threw her head back, with a red welt on her forehead, and screamed. Screamed bloody murder. She stopped and looked down to see it had blood on it and looked rather familiar. She kicked it along back to Kaede's hut.
Everyone was asleep, save for Fluffy-Sama. Koneko left the metal piece outside and glanced around the crowded place. Inu-Yasha wasn't there, and neither was Silver. But....Hal, Sakura, Zi, Kenshin; check. Kagome, Sango, Shippou, Miroku; check. She shrugged and walked back outside. Koneko jumped on the roof and walked around some before settling on a spot.
-*-
Everyone woke up bright and not so early. Think Noon-ish? Children were running around the village, fathers were farming and teaching their oldest sons the ways. Mothers sat and made food, went shopping, went gossiping. You're average day--No..wait..Wait for it...
"SIT!!!"
"HENTAAAAAAAI!"
*thud*
*Smack*
Yes, your everyday with the group.
Sakura blinked as she saw both men defeated by the young women. She raised an eyebrow and then gave high-fives to Kagome and Sango (after explaining to Sango what it was). Everyone ate, talking about general topics. No one brought up the fact that Silver wasn't there until Koneko appeared.
"Where is Silver?" She sat down next to her Fluffy and started to eat Ramen.
"Wow..Good question." Zi blinked.
"Yeah, where is she? I haven't seen her since last night." Sakura stopped eating to think about it.
Sesshou-Maru looked at Koneko who had stopped eating as well. She held her chin in deep thought. She mumbled some things and furrowed her eyebrows. For her sake, he decided to tell what he knew. "She left last night."
"LEFT?!" Everyone shouted, minus Kenshin because he sucks. (A/N: Kenshin-lovers, don't hit meh ;_;)
"I, Lord Sesshou-Maru of the Western Lands, do not have a reason, nor need one, to lie to you fools."
"Ehem...Hem hem.." Koneko said.
"Except Koneko.." He mumbled, looking like a puppy who was caught peeing on the floor.
^^ - Koneko
-*-
Silver lifted her head to be invaded by the bright sun. Sighing, she stood up and stretched. Her scars were healing, which made her frown. They were light scabs now; memories to linger before fading with the rest. Not much could be said for her outfit, which was dirty on two counts blood and one count sleeping on the grass and dirt. She didn't notice as she walked in a sluggish pace to the hut.
Eventually....Hour later...She got there. Silver stopped when she reached for the bamboo pelt. What would they say...They sure wouldn't ignore her. Especially Koneko, with her senses? She can't even hide the blood. She was already too close...
Koneko moved the pelt, making Silver put her arm down. Koneko had an odd look on her face. Concern? Silver tilted her head to the side and blinked. All the others were peeping out and some gasps were made. Busted? Hell yeah.
"Uh..." Silver mumbled in a very tired, unintelligent, way.
"Where have you been?" Koneko asked casually.
"In Inu-Yasha Forest..?"
"Why?"
"It matters?"
"Yes."
"Well I'm not telling you."
"You smell."
"So?"
"Go take a bath --."
"What if I don't want to?" Silver smirked.
"Feh." Koneko walked back inside and came back with a towel and change of clothes.
-.- - Silver
Koneko started to push Silver in the direction of the hot springs. Silver said nothing and was pushed along toward the bath.They walked in partial silence. The silence was partial because Koneko had to question Silver's boo-boo's.
"Why did you do that? You have to answer, and you will." She got that look again..
Silver shivered, "I wasn't felling well."
"Vampire thing?" Koneko wasn't stupid although she hid it very well.
Silver didn't really have to answer that. Kind of more statement than question. She kept walking, slightly behind the young neko-hanyou.
She did get her bath and new clothes, which she wasn't happy about. She couldn't wait to get some more suitable for battle...Because this blue kimono with cranes on it was definitely not working!!!
"Did you choose?" Silver asked as they sat by the well.
"No..So hard you know?" Koneko threw a piece of grass she was playing with.
"No one would blame you if you stayed. That was the mission, ne?"
"Yes...But I'll miss out! And..." She stopped.
"Miss us? Aww..I'm touched." Silver patted her heart and smiled. Her eyes merely focused on the sky.
"Tch.." Koneko threw a rock at her.
"Ah x.x;"
"That is what you get u.u;"
"I love you too."
"Luff, not love." Koneko smirked.
"Sure." Silver smiled.
SilverAssassin: Ookay end of Angst chapter. I was feeling dramatic soo..hehe ^^
Koneko: o__o Me likey..Next chapter please!
SilverAssassin: x.x; You know...I have a life
Koneko: Gasp! O.O NOOO You went to the dark side!!

Jenova: o__o -Takes Koneko with her mystical alienist powers and disappears.-
SilverAssassin: o.o; Uh oh...
Crit: Yay adventure, adventure! ^_^
Hal: . I'm not going anywhere..
~Hal receives glares of doom~
Hal: oo; On second thought
Next chapter: ooh Koneko decides..You think I'm going to tell you here? Ha tough cookies. We shall also find some clues about Miss.Baba..Hm..
SilverAssassin: Hm..I need something to type. Lil drama here, Misa didn't make me type this chapter! Accomplished me.
