Updated sooner than expected. This is the chapter you've been waiting for; the OC will finally be introduced. Remember keep an open mind. I've been trying to stay as original as possible and this idea for him was as original as they come.

Chapter 3
The Wolf
Yukina turned around and gasped at what she saw. Standing in front of the tree line was a massive bear demon. It had black fur and red eyes. He looked half man half bear. He wore a deerskin loincloth and had menacing claws and fangs.
"Who are you, what do you want" she asked. He started to chuckle "I am the bear demon Domaru and you are my next meal." Yukina gasped. "It's been a while since I had an ice demon for a meal, they are a rare treat indeed." He lunged at her but she somehow managed to move out of the way and make a run for the forest. "I love a good chase works up an appetite" he laughed.
Yukina was running as fast as she could. The branches were ripping her shirt along the way. The bear was to big to get through the forest easily but she could hear trees crashing down behind her. She saw a clearing up ahead. When she got there she stopped dead in her tracks. She had just missed falling off the edge of a high cliff. Oh no she thought. Domaru came out of the trees "You're pretty fast but I know this land better than you and easily tracked you" he said a started walking toward her a sadistic grin on his face. Yukina did the only thing she could do, she screamed.
Not to far away
"Ahhh this is the life" a voice said from a tree branch. In the tree was a boy who looked around 17 in age. He was 5 feet 8 inches in height. At first glance one would think he was just another one of the many Indians that lived in the area, but on closer inspection you could see he wasn't human. His skin was tan brown in color. He had long black hair that went just beyond his neck. It was tied in a ponytail with two bangs that hung on the side of his head (think Mirai Trunk's hair style only black). His eyes opened to revel golden wolf like eyes. On the tip of each finger was a claw that looked like it could slice through anything. He whore a black muscle shirt tucked into a pair of black pants. On his feet he whore a pair of black army style boots. Over all of this was a red trench coat that was left open. On his hands was a pair of black fingerless gloves. Strapped to his back was a sword. And hanging out of the back of his coat was a black bushy wolf tail. He was a wolf demon.
In North America wolf demons were the dominant species of the wild, though some demons were more powerful. Most looked like Indians because they were the only humans to live in the Americas for centuries so naturally the wolf demons, and other demons that had a human form, took on their characteristics. Even today they still keep that look. This guy was no exception.
"I think I'll just relax here for now then keep searching for that stupid bear" he said as he started to drift to sleep.
Just then his sensitive hearing picked up a scream. That never means anything good he thought as he started running toward the scream. Ahead he saw a girl about to be clawed to pieces by a bear demon. The wolf gritted his teeth and let out a growl Domaru. "Better hurry."
Domaru had Yukina cornered at the cliffs edge and was raising a clawed hand. "Don't worry I'll make this quick" he said. He brought his hand down. Yukina braced herself for the blow but it never came. She opened her eyes to see Domaru's eyes were wider. He seemed to have sensed something. He looked to his left and almost immediately went crashing into a nearby boulder. Yukina then saw someone wearing red was in front of her. He turned his head to face her. "You okay" he asked Yukina could only nod. "Good, stay here I'll handle him" he then turned back to Domaru who was getting up.
"Your that wolf I fought when I had those wolf demon pups for lunch" this caused the wolf to growl " Those were my pack's pups you monster." "They were quit tasty" "That's why I'm been searching for you, so I can kill you for what you've done" "Don't make me laugh a weak wolf demon could never defeat me" "Why don't you come see what this weak wolf can do" "Very well" and with that both fighter charged each other.
Domaru slash at the wolf from the left but the wolf saw this and jumped over Domaru. Domaru turned and started throwing punches to the wolf who dodged each one. The wolf caught one of the punches and pulled Domaru toward him then kicked him in the stomach. Domaru stumble back "That's it time to finish this CHAOS ROAR" he opened his mouth and a huge ball of energy came at the wolf. "Two can play at that game" he put his right hand behind him and his claws started to glow red "CRESCENT CLAWS" he slashed the air and out flew five red crescent shaped blades of energy. The two attacks collided but the crescent blades sliced through the energy ball and went straight for Domaru. The blades stated to circle the bear demon and slashed his skin. The five blades flew back to the wolf and were absorbed back into his claws. Domaru stood where he was with various slash wounds on his body "Curse you" he growled.
"Now its my turn" the wolf said confidently. He brought his right hand up and grabbed the sword strapped to his back. He unsheathed it to reveal a yard long double-edged straight sword with a crescent shaped hilt. "Is that what I think it is?" Domaru asked with fear in his voice. "Yes this is the legendary sword Crescent Edge" the wolf replied bringing the sword in front of him. It started to glow white. "Now to end this" the wolf charge at Domaru with speed that rivaled Hiei. Domaru prepared another blast but the wolf suddenly disappeared. He reappeared above Domaru and brought the sword down. He stabbed Domaru right in the head. Then disappeared as Domaru fell to the ground dead. The wolf reappeared in front Yukina " He won't be causing any more trouble" he said. Just then Domaru's body started to glow and then blew up.
The cliff started to collapse beneath Yukina and the wolf. "SHIT" he said. He suddenly picked Yukina up bridal style "Hold on… and please don't scream to loud" and before Yukina could ask what he meant he jumped off the side of the cliff headfirst. She grabbed his neck in fear. He then flipped over so that his feet were facing the ground. They were about to land on a long slope "This is going to ruin my shoes" he said. He landed on his feet and started siding down the slope. Up ahead was a drop that leads to some rapids. Behind them the cliff was crashing down the slope. Just when they reached the edge of the drop the wolf jumped high above the rapids doing a flip and landed safely on the other side with Yukina still clinging to him. He turned around to see the cliff crash into the water.
"That was close" he said. He put down Yukina on her feet and let her lean on him to recover. "Sorry to scare you like that" Yukina got her breath back "It's okay and thank you for saving me from Domaru" "Don't mention it" he replied smiling revealing a mouthful of fangs. He's so cute Yukina thought. Wait what am I thinking she thought with her head down hiding a blush. She then looked at him again. He really was pretty handsome and she could see from the way his chest was a little exposed from his shirt he was pretty muscular. The wolf had just got his first good look at Yukina was and was distracted a little by he outfit. Because of running through the forest Yukina's shirt was ripped in some places and it still clung to her body from being wet. Luckily for her she was wearing a bra. My god she's beautiful. Where did that come from!? The wolf thought. He blushed when he realized he was staring at her but his dark skin tone hid it well. "By the way my names Riku" Yukina looked at him "Mine's Yukina." "Well then Yukina we'd better find a place to camp for the night so you can tell me what a girl like you is doing out here, follow me" and he started to walk toward the forest. She didn't budge from her spot. He turned and walked to her putting his hands on her shoulders and met her crimson eyes with his golden ones "Don't be afraid I promise I won't harm you" he said comfortably. She smiled for the first since she was washed away from her friends. "Okay I'll go" she said shyly. They walked side by side into the forest.
That's enough for now. Next chapter, Riku and Yukina learn more about each other and the gang begins their search for Yukina. Oh by the way, with this Riku the Ri- is pronounced like the re- in read and he has the same voice as Domon Kashu from G Gundam. Just thought I'd clear that up. I'll try and update soon. Read and Review please. Flames are tolerated.
