Ok, now everyone out there that is a faithful reviewer of mine, and
you all know who you are, a treat I shall give you. This next chapter is
juicy and reveals quite a lot about the story, it is also going to end with
one of the biggest cliffies ever. So be patient and don't raid my review
page with protests against the ending to this chapter. I really hope that
you all love it; I worked really hard on it! Oh and I don't know what
you're talking about when you say you sound like a prick Dragon Sythe.
Chapter 5,
Creatures of the Night!
(Shadow Demons)
It was well after Kenshin and Sora had gone to bed. Hiei lie awake in his bed thinking, and then turned to Kurama who was also awake on the opposite side of the room.
Hiei: I know there's something wrong here; I can feel it! What kind of person welcomes complete strangers into her home and lives alone in the middle of nowhere like this? She even knows who we are! But the freaky thing is that my Jigan eye has no effect on her, she has a good mental guard against it, yet I can only trace the faintest glimmer of energy coming from her. She has to be hiding something!
Kurama: I agree with you, but she obviously means us no harm. You are right about her power level though, even humans' power levels will increase a little when they fight, and hers didn't increase at all! Her dog is quite strange as well, it's almost like she can reason and use logic, but that would be defying Darwin's law of nature. Keela also has an unnatural physical body unlike any dog I've ever seen! Do you think she could be in anyway connected with that case Koenma was trying to hide from us?
Hiei: If she is then this is more than just coincidence. Let's say, hypothetically, that she is connected with the case, how could it be that our portal just happens to malfunction and drop us off a few hours away from her? Plus, this person was supposed to be some kind of super genius with a great deal of power, and how did Sora know about our laws with the portals and such? Even if she had mastered the small amount of human power she has, she wouldn't be able to mask it from us this well.
Kurama: Well now we don't know all of the details on the case, except that this woman isn't supposed to be in the human or demon world because there are people after her, and that she's wanted for arrest for the improper use of portals. Unless you've heard different then I'd say that I've touched on just about all of the facts that we have to work with. What I still don't get is that we're the strongest spirit detectives out there and Koenma says that we would be massacred if we tracked her down and took her on as of now! But he said it wasn't because of her power alone, I mean what is that supposed to mean?
Hiei: Uhh, this is just so frustrating! Maybe we'll find out more about this Sora if we hang around. Even if she has nothing to do with the case Koenma was talking about she's still suspicious, let's sleep on it.
Kurama: Yes, perhaps the coming morning will shed some new light on this subject.
Everyone was asleep; the house was pitch black and silent, except for the rain. It streamed over the house, rushing torrents of it bled down the windows. But sugarplums weren't dancing in these children's heads, or in the dog's for that matter. And a creature was indeed stirring, several creatures to be precise. The only problem was that these creatures were much more than mice, oh so much more than mice! These were creatures that hell itself would spit back into the living world if they should die. Vicious, bloodthirsty beasts that could not be seen or heard unless of course they wished to be seen; yet they reeked with the scent of death! Cloaked in shapeless, misty black shadow, these monsters haunted the shadowy night searching for their next meal! They came up fast, closing the gap between them and Sora's home at a horrifyingly fast pace, a pace that even Hiei couldn't match. Upon reaching Sora's home these monsters halted and sniffed the air, hissing and clicking to one another, and the leader seemed to snicker to itself, there was fresh meat to be had here! There were five beasts, and they were a force to be reckoned with, the smallest of them stood 7foot 11, the tallest stood 13foot 3, and they were pure muscle! Apparently they weren't too stupid either, because one of them found the handle to the door on Sora's patio and quietly chirped to the others. They rallied around the door and looked it over, they new it was locked. But instead of breaking down the door as they could've easily done and waking everyone up the biggest one bent down and effortlessly bit the deadbolt off of the door! Now this lock was made of a pure titanium, steel alloy, and was coated with and alloy of bronze and gold, that doesn't sound too easy to just bite through without losing any teeth to me! They then were smart enough to turn the doorknob and gain entry to the house!!!! Once inside it was almost as if they knew exactly where to go to get to the bedrooms on the top floor of the home, and it's easy to get lost in Sora's house, but they didn't even falter one step! Slinking down the hallway they sniffed each door, the leader went to Sora's door and touched the knob, which was shaped like the head of a dragon. The door, which had been locked, silently swung open, as if to invite this monster into Sora's room! It walked to her bed, and looked at her lying asleep. Her chest rose and fell with each breathe, and the thing reached out and brushed her bangs out of her face. She began to stir and the thing calmly left her room and she slept peacefully once again. The rest waited patiently and showed their leader which room they wanted to enter first, it was the girls' room! Like little phantoms they entered, and crept about the room, quieter than death itself. The smallest one reached Shizuru's bed and leaned over so that its face was level with hers. She slept soundly and the creature crawled forward; it began to open its jaws, saliva dripped from its lips, and its 6inch fangs were bared like twin sabers in the moon light.Shizuru's eyes snapped open!
Wow, pretty cool huh? Send me reviews and maybe I'll let you all know what happens on Sunday if I have time! You reviewers are awesome!! I hope I can finish the next chapter in time! Do any of you want sneak peeks? Ok here's one, these monsters like hunting Sora's friends, but won't touch Sora, why not? Sora knows them, that's why.
