A New Demon Clan - Chapter Eleven
((((((((((Dream Sequence))))))))))
Anasani sat on the edge of a cliff, contemplating her future and other things. She reached up a clawed hand and laid the palm across her belly, which had gotten considerably bigger, but was still a little small.
Anasani heard a light growl behind her and she chattered back in return. She felt a nose touch her in the back of the neck and start to nuzzle her, softly. Big strong arms wrapped around her and Anasani reached up her free hand and held onto one of the arms, leaning back into the one holding her, lovingly.
"I thought you were supposed to be helping your siblings with the plans." Anasani said and the nuzzling stopped.
"I was, but I wanted to make sure you were okay, my sweet little imp." Said the male holding her, now, resting his head on her small shoulder, licking her cheek.
"Ahh!" Anasani said, surprised, looking down at her belly now.
"What's wrong?" The male asked, worriedly.
"Shendu, the baby kicked!" She replied, happily, and she grabbed one of his hands and laid it across her belly.
Shendu looked down at her belly and felt a small kick from inside of it and smiled, softly, now, rubbing the spot on her big belly, pressing his cheek against her own.
"That he did, my love. That he did." Shendu said, nipping at her lips, making her smile.
"I can't wait until I can hold him in my arms, Shendu. This baby means more than anything to me, besides you and my little sister." Anasani said, smiling, and Shendu nodded and licked her lips, making her close her eyes and sigh, happily.
((((((((((End Dream Sequence))))))))))
Anasani's eyes opened with the speed of light and she sat up in bed, breathing heavily. Jade jumped up, scared. The little demon girl had been watching over her older sister to make sure she wouldn't have a worse fit than before.
"Nekana? What are you doing in here?" Anasani asked, still panting, but trying to get it under control.
"I was making sure you wouldn't try to plan the unfortunate deaths of our father and Shendu's mother." Jade replied,
looking at the elder demon warily. "What happened in your dream?"
"I. . .um. . ." Anasani stuttered, looking embarrassed, then, she looked down. "Shendu and I were sitting on the edge of a cliff, watching the sunset and I was pregnant with his baby." She said in a low voice and Jade looked at her funny.
"What's the matter with that, besides the fact that Shendu is a jerk to me and my human family, plus your family and his own?" Jade said and Anasani snorted.
"Yeah, what's the matter with that piece of work?" Anasani replied, sarcastically, rolling her red eyes.
"Really, what is the matter with it, Anasani? I mean, it sounded kinda sweet." Jade said and Anasani sighed.
"I don't know, it was a nice dream, and it seemed so real. The only thing is, I don't know what to feel about it." Anasani said and Jade nodded, knowing the dragon was still confused over Shendu and her mixed feelings for him.
"I understand, big sis. I was that way with Hsi Wu for a while, until I realized that I really did love him." Jade replied and Anasani looked up at her, smirking sneakily.
"Did you two kiss and make up already?" The dragon asked and Jade gasped and her face turned into an evil frown.
"I am not going to do anything until I find out if he will return my feelings." Jade said, crossing her rough skinned arms and twitching her wings.
"Well, you don't have to be mad about it." Anasani said and her stomach growled, making her poke it for a minute.
"You never did finish dinner, did you?" Jade asked and the dragon frowned.
"No! I was going to munch on Tsa Nei, but Bai Tsa had to save her stupid friend." Anasani said, getting mad again.
"Come on. Let's go get something to eat." Jade said and the dragon smirked and stood, watching as Jade had to jump off the edge of the huge bed.
Anasani took long strides as she walked out the door and went down the stairs. Jade, on the other hand, had to jog to keep up with her long legged sister.
Anasani, suddenly, stopped when she got to the bottom of the stairs, making Jade run into her legs. The demon children were gathered in the living room, taling, until Anasani had come down.
Hsi Wu looked worriedly at Jade as she fell to the ground when she ran nto Anasani's leg. Anasani looked at her, as well, feeling like all eyes were turned on her.
Anasani bent down and helped her sister up and glared at the group of demons. She, then, returned to her snack hunt and went into the kitchen, followed quickly by Jade, whowas scared by the glares the demons were throwing their way.
Once the kitchen door was closed, Jade let out a breath she had been holding for a while and looked at her sister, who had her top half in the refridgerator and her tail swishing happily behind her as she found food.
"Hey, Anasani? Why were they giving us bad looks in there?" Jade asked and the demon dragon pulled herself out of the fridge, and looked at her younger sister.
"They weren't giving 'us' bad looks. They were giving 'me' bad looks because I attacked my brother, who is their friend and they already hated me because I was a dragon with a bad temper. Now, they think I'm uncontrolable and probably want to send me to the human world forever." Anasani replied, glancing behind Jade to see the one cubboard she usually got things from.
"Forever?!" Jade squeaked and the dragon passed her and opened the cubboard, rummaging around in it. "You can't go away froever! You're my older sister, the one who guides me. The one who keeps me from doing the bad things."
"I know, but they hate me. You're on your own if they banish me, kid." Anasani said, pulling a big bag of chips from the cubboard and opened them. "Unless you tell Hsi Wu and get him to help you."
"I could do that, bit I feel like I've decieved him by coming before him like this." Jade replied, looking down, making Anasani frown.
"Kid, you've got it alright. Everything will be fine between you two." Anasani said, putting a chip in her mouth.
"You really think so?" Jade asked, looking up, a hopeful look on her little face.
"Yeah. You'll be fine, too, kid." Anasani said, ruffling her sister's hair.
"Hey!" Jade said, pulling away from her dragon sister's claws and re-fixing her hair, making Anasani giggle, lightly.
Anasani grinned and walked out of the kitchen, carrying the bag and being followed by Jade, who was desperately trying to fix her hair.
"You'd think you'd learn to keep a comb or something with ya, Nekana. Ya know I'm gonna do that sooner or later."
Anasani laughed as they walked by the living room.
"Why can't it be later?" Jade whined.
"Because ya don't have a say." Anasani replied through a mouthfull of chips and Jade grinned.
"What are you going to do for your wedding, 'Sani?" Jade asked, making Anasani choke on her chips, making the other demons laugh.
"Ya just had to bring that up, didn't ya, kid?" Anasani said, grinning evilly, turning toward the 10-year-old girl.
Jade stuck her tongue out at the older demon and Anasani play growled and unfurled her large wings, making Jade unfurl her own smaller ones.
"Don't you two start trying to destroy the place while we are in here, now." Tso Lan warned and Anasani turned toward him and stuck out her reptilian tongue, as did Jade.
Shendu raised an eyebrow at the pair, noting that the Nekana demon was familiar to him, but he didn't know why. He turned his gaze to his fiancee and smirked, knowing Anasani sensed his steady gaze.
Anasani did, indeed, sense his eyes on her and was trying to keep from squirming under them. Anasani turned her gaze toward the other dragon and saw his smirk, feeling the blood rush to her cheeks.
Jade looked up at her sister and saw the slight blush darkening her already dark cheek scales. Jade smirked at that and started to snicker, making Anasani return her gaze to the air demon.
"What?" Anasani asked and Jade looked at Shendu and the others, who were just as confused as Anasani.
"You do realize that you're blushing, dont you?" She asked in between giggles and it made Anasani's blush worsen.
"No, I'm not. You must need your eyes checked or something." Anasani replied trying to cover her cheeks without anyone noticing, but failing miserably.
Anasani curled her wings back up and started to walk out of the room, looking around frantically, just waiting for the others to laugh at her, too, whic she didn't have to wait long for.
Anasani tried to stay as calm as possible and went up the staris rather fast, shutting her bedroom door behind her after she had walked in.
The dragon tried to stay calm and flopped down on her bed, burying her face in her hands.
A few minutes later, she heard a knock on her door and looked up, looking scared.
"What?" She asked, sharply, hopefully scaring the person on the other side of the door out of coming in.
"Can I come in?" Asked a voice she hadn't heard in a while and she tilted her head to the side.
"Sure. . .Hsi Wu." Anasani said, slowly.
The youngest of the other demon bretheren came in, closing the door behind him. Hsi Wu looked at the demon and noted something he hadn't seen her do before.
"What's the matter? Why are you crying?" He asked and Anasani looked down.
"Trying to keep my sanity." Anasani replied and the sky demon tilted his head to the side. "Now, what did you want?"
"I was wanting to ask you why your little sister, Nekana, seems to be familiar to me. Something about her eyes and some other things, but I can't pin point where I have seen it before." The sky demon said and Anasani smirked.
"Do you remember that Jade Chan girl?" The dragon asked and Hsi Wu took a moment to think and nodded. "Why don't you ask her about her and see what her reaction is. She'll tell you sooner or later."
"I still don't see what the connection is, but I'll try." HsiWu stated and he left, still a little confused.
"You'll see the connection soon enough." Anasani whispered and she put her face back in her hands, trying to stop crying.
"Anasani?" She heard a certain male dragon say and Anasani sniffled.
Anasani heard the door close and felt a weight beside her on the bed, on her right side. Anasani felt an arm wrap around her small shoulders. She leaned into Shendu and buried her face in his chest, wrapping her arms around his waist.
Shendu began to, softly, stroke the back of her neck, gliding his fingers up and down her spine, making the female dragon start to purr, loudly. Shendu began to smile at that and, gently, squeezed the female's delicate shoulder, reassuringly.
Anasani pulled away from Shendu a bit and looked up at him, seeing him not trying to rub the whole marraige thing in her face. She tilted her head to the side, questioning him with her eyes.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to rub it in your face, anymore. You don't need that right now, anyway." He said, knowing she was going to ask sooner or later.
"Promise?" Anasani asked and Shendu nodded.
"Promise." Shendu replied, touching his nose to hers, making her smile.
Shendu smiled, softly, at his fiancee and pulled her into an embrace, feeling her wrap her tail around his ankle. Anasani looked up at him, having her chin rest on his chest so she coul look up at the bottom of his.
Anasani closed her eyes and tightened her grip around him, making Shendu look down at her and rest his nose against hers, closing his eyes, sighing.
'This is the best feeling I've ever had.' Both of them thought at the same time, smiling broadly.
The End!!!!
So what do you think? I'm going to make a sequel, but I don't know when I'll post it. But soon I hope.
