"Get your hand off my ass," Tails threatened the goblin, "I will snap off your hand."
"Come on, pretty lady..."
The disgusting person in the metal mai bai tho, thought of how lucky he traveling with two very beautiful women ... he was thinking of how having two at once would be a glorious day – something to hold in his heart until the next life.
"I thought wolves were noble creatures. I thought you had a sense of honor..."
A voice came only inside Tail's ears.
She shook it off and continued on with her friends. Looking at the sunset's bright hue, again came the voice, "I thought you had a sense of honor. Surely you cannot leave them to their own fate..."
The others could not see it – sitting on a white cloud a man with three shakras on his baldhead. Tails asked recognizing him, "Tasty Une ... you're dead ..."
"I thought wolves were noble creatures. Surely you cannot leave them to their own fate..."
Then he was gone...
"We're turning back," she snarled.
"What?"
"Why?"
"I am a carnivore," her fangs shown, "If you don't I'll put you on the menu..."
Back to the city, her prediction and the warnings came true...
The city was in flames...
The rioters were killing each other for the yellow metal.
Into the thick she jumped.
"Damn that flea bag," Sonic followed.
"Call me a fleabag, and you will meet my claws!"
Tails shouted in furry.
Helpless, the goblin watched.
He watched them fail.
Tails fell to her knees; she transformed and cried out a long emotion-filled howl...
"If I were you," Sonic advised the potbellied male coldly, "Don't stop her – she needs it...
The howl lasted for a good two hours.
Then Tail's ears picked up a different cry.
Through the life-less rubble she found it – a baby.
She glanced at her friends hesitantly.
Grasping it in her maw she bounded off.
The others did not see and if they did, they would have accused her of eating it.
She ran fast and hard finding the charcoal maker still at the river, placing it down saying, "Looks like humans are neither good or evil ... Now you must prove it ... take care of this ... if you don't I will come for you and kill you..."
Tails returned to the city and panted. She returned to human form very proud of herself, "Nobody is going to guilt me into anything!"
"What kind of guilt...we could discuss it together," the goblin placed his claw on her thigh.
The hedgehog lady hit him over the head, "Let's get some food and sleep..."
"This will be interesting. He only drinks blood, I eat flesh, and I suspect you're a vegetarian..."
She yawned, and then volunteered to find food and cook it.
In lighting food came and was set out.
Tails wolfed it down then laid to sleep.
"What are you doing sleeping on the ground like that," Sonic asked wondering about her, "What were you raised by wolves or something?"
"Yes," a toothy grin, "Get some sleep, we will have a busy day... and if you even think of laying next to me – I will gobble you up..."
"You married?"
The demon's equine long sloped nosed poked at her white clothes in a laugh at her suggestion
"Don't touch me! I don't know where you have been, Lord Chin-na-lo," she stroked it away with her handless sleeves. The white of her kimono seemed to say that she was a sibling of Shirahime, the snow princess, "I was married once ... I know the secret science of the Baoju ... my husband was in a related field ... But those peasants, those uneducated, un enlightened fools, they hated us ... they hated us, they pelted our daughter with stones saying she was our "subject"... "A subject" of "our accursed experiment" ... A half-breed ..."
"A daughter too? I would never think a mother would bring weapons into the world – you are a strange one," the lead demon said trying to understand his permanent guest, "These weapons ... if I would let you go what would you do," he seemed to be asking for a reason to do so.
"Same as now," she rolled out a silver scroll and her sleeve. Now he saw it a paw on her right hand, like that of a hare, "Oh this? My hands? This is why they tossed me out of Kunlun, I tried to turn myself into a Baoju to avenge them ... to avenge them, to kill those peons who claimed with pitchforks and torches in hand as our little house burned ..."
She cried the lead demon moved to comfort her but stopped seeing her tears congeal right to her cheeks and fall to the ground like little pearls.
"To kill those saying that my dear husband ... my dear child ... my beloved child, my beloved Usa ... were torn apart by a pack of wild foxes. Wild foxes indeed!"
"If I were free to do as I please," a pensive smile, it was more like her lips tried to force one despite her face being frozen in place, "I would sell my weapons and armor. I am an arms dealer now, I sell to anyone and everyone, as long as they pay..."
"Then you have no moral compunctions do you – helping demons..."
"Mankind, Demons, Gods, Foxes – it does not matter to me. Let the world die for all I care, as long as I get my payment," she took a quill and tabbed it into the paw for ink to write on the silver paper a huge magical spell, "From you and the empress of the yin, every new sword made. Every piece of armor made, the world of ignorance dies some more ... with every gun and weapon, I am being paid in full, paid for my revenge ..."
And here, I will give her majesty something to cheat out destruction," stoking her defiled blood over the scroll, "And then she will do for me a favor and topple Kunlun ..."
"Darling!"
The young blonde girl with colored tips like a peacock sighted the pudgy creature that was sighing at his master's laziness – just sitting there fishing while the bat-boy and the spiky-haired male went at it. The pounced onto the creature that was unlike any four things – to all appearances it looked like a hippos with a mop of shaggy hair and deer horns.
Kibi greeted it ignoring the others slipping into a montage of her in a white dress next to the hippo in a tux and pealing church bells, washing dishes together, cutting the wedding cake, playing, pushing a baby carriage together...
A claw reached in popping this useless thought bubble, "If you don't mind, Kibi. Though "interesting" as it is a sub-plot, would you move the story along..."
Taikoubou looked at the man with hair like a demented mushroom cloud sitting on a speckled cat. The others readied for a fight, because it ruined his "meditating", sic, sleeping.
"You are no fun," the little girl stuck her tongue out at the guy to ruin her dream.
"If you don't mind, Kibi. Though "interesting" as it is a sub-plot, would you move the story along..."
He repeated himself then whispered, "The montage itself is the G-rated version ... the x-rated would have been more fun ... te-he..."
"Okay," Kibi said sadly, "Sister Dakki did tell Kibi to pick something up in the southwest..."
She rushed off before the others could take her ... for one thing the funny little fool was providing a distraction to keep them in place so that she could.
"Une!"
Glomp!
Sanzo and the others were shock; the she-wolf grabbed him. Her tail wagged happily, "I've got you tasty priest. Now I will feast on your testy flesh and pick my teeth with your bones..."
The blonde tossed her away painted his weapon at her. He told her that the old rumor that there was no immortality in eating him.
"Yea, first he would have to be a real holy man..."
"Watch it..."
The Sanzo priest threatened the 6' redhead bound with a blue headband and readied to send him to join the ancestors.
"He is not a holy man? He is dressed..."
Tails whimpered, "I do not want to be immortal any way all I want to have is something very tasty..."
"Appearances are not real..."
A squeak from Sonic; somebody touched her but. She flared out ready to teach the goblin or the 22-year-old in the blue jacket a lesson – she did not wear spines for nothing...
Enter a 5'11" dark-haired male with a monocle and a boy with food already being eaten by him.
A rushing leap and a hug; Tails was now on top of the boy but managed to keep the precious food from falling, "Little Brother!"
"Is this a demon," the boy in the cape asked trying not to blush as she snuggled up against him.
"Little brother! Little brother!"
She pressed herself on him, "Who let a naughty boy like you out of that cave? Who let you out? Naughty little boy..."
"Cute!"
Then a jump up to greet the super cute little beast with white wings identifying herself and her companions with a bow and a wag of her tail, "The one in armor is a demon, she is really a hedgehog. Sonic here, is too spiny to eat. This one," she removed the depraved creature's claw from her posterior. She hit him thrice and then let Sonic do the same, "And this pervert is the goblin of the Xi river ... I've given him the name Xi, though if the un-tasty hedgehog would have it, she would have another video game reference and call him "Knuckles..."
"Of course, of course!"
Another bow as if her introductions were only for the white whiskered flying animal, "I am "the wolf of the earth, born from the dross left over from the creation of all ten-thousand things," to be short, you may call me Tails and my weapon is called "the wolves' claw."
Sonic sighed as the dragon cooed at the woman with the over active extra appendage, "Please excuse her, she is a few souls short of a pillar..."
"Watch it!"
A snarl then a distracted out of fighting by the supplies, "If you like, little brother, Goku ... I can cook that for you ..."
The priest if one could call him that was of the mind of being rid of these added interlopers.
Somehow the redhead and the one in the monocle conned him out of it, maybe it was the fact that Sha Gojuo and the goblin got along, Gojou liked the nice shapes that the hedgehog demon and the she-wolf had, or that Xi had a couple packs of Sanzo's favorite brand.
Cho Hakkai offered that it seemed that these strangers were good people, not affected by the demonic miasma. Hakkai could see that their apparent leader, Tails, was too simple to be duplicitous ...
Tails would have barked something about having his kidneys, but was completely intent and focused on "her little brother" and making dinner for him.
