Through The Eyes Of The Assassin- Part 14
By: Roaring Flames

AN: Well I think I need to give a little clap for "Alex". You reviewed for my last chapter after only 2 minutes after posting it. DragonMaster (I can't remember the number part) you reviewed for my last chapter and I bow to you for being a loyal reviewer, THANKS!!!

If other people want me to post their names in my chapters or their stories, you HAVE to review for one of my chapters. Oh and speaking of recommending stories, read Azulrealms story "Waves" it's a cute KK story and worth reading!!! Well, JA MINA!!!

Oh and I hope that the magic stuff doesn't destroy the story and brings displeasure to you. Since this is a RK/IY crossover (sort of) story, I thought it would be nice to give this Fic a face-lift. If you have a big problem with the magic and demons just send in a review (NOT a flame) to me and I'll see what I can do.

Pushing Me Away While Still Staying Close...

Lightning flew to the grounds as swords met their victims, thunder chased after lightning in a endless waltz, as did the cries of dead filled the air with it's interluding pitches. The sky was as black as paint and the shadows played about, devouring the weak and helpless...

Sai stood there getting soaked by the rain that started to fall, heaven's grace to the fallen. She turned her head slightly to see why the assassin stopped the battle; she flowed her eyes to the top of a roof and spotted a shadow peering down at them. Its eyes were of no color, body of that of a hungry beast. It jumped from its secure position and bared its claws at Kotori. It fell with such a speed that Sai had trouble following it, she looked at Kotori with eyes filled with worry, but just to find that the girl's eyes have changed.

She had a bloodlust grin on her face and her eyes were enveloped with a dark shade of red. Sai could make out that Kotori's pupils were not of black, but dark amber. This girl standing before her was a demon? Or a human that lost all sense of humanity. Kotori did not draw her blade, but merely caught the demon by the neck, with her bare hands. The tried to struggle out of her grip, clawing at her arms and hands, only to find a stronger grip than the last (Sounds poetic, ne?). The youkai's eyes grew large as the same hand that was suffocating him, burst into a fire like aura, the flames felt like a hell on Earth against its neck.

"What? Is something wrong? I normally thought that hellspons could take this kind of heat." She said in a deep almost mokinling tone as the demon's neck started to boil (Ewww), blood started to run over her fingers as the holes in the youkai's neck go bigger. Kotori closed her eyes and then snapped them open with a grin on her face; she dropped the youkai and kicked it. "Go! Tell your master if she keeps this up I'll kill her in the most dreaded way on the history of Earth." She said in a commanding voice. The demon ran away with his hands arm his neck to stop the bleed. Kotori then sighed and released her aura. Her eyes changed back to their steel blue and a childish smile appeared back on her face. Kotori walked back to the inn and saw Kaoru and Kisa together with Taison (I changed it from Jason to Taison okay) over looking them.

He looked over to her with his jet black eyes and smiled.

"Tori-chan you really shouldn't be doing anything reckless, you had me worried." He whispered to her while getting up from the chair he was sitting on. Kotori walked over to him punched him lightly on the head. Taison rubbed his head and chuckled. "Im taking it that you did?"

Kotori smiled and put him in a neck lock; he started to gasp for air, as her grip was a very strong one. She does this to me all the time, why am I not surprised? He then grinned evilly it was pay back time. Taison lifted his head enough to get himself some air.

"Macho chick! Your arms are like bricks! Thighs are too thick!" He teased. Kotori's eyes narrowed and her brow twitched. Oh he was in for it all right, she moved her arms off his neck and restrained his arms. She bent her back inhumanly far and fast, and then slammed Taison's head into the wood floor knocking him unconscious. Kenshin arrived two hours later at the inn when everyone was asleep. His hand was over his cross-shaped scar and when he removed his hand he found blood in his hand...
