Thank you to all of those who have reviewed.

Zacura: Hi everyone! I'm trying to be on a roll so here's another chapter. This is one of the longer ones that I promised. It's also where all the fun that you have all been waiting for, starts.

Toguro Ani: Shut up Zacura. It took you long enough to post chapter three. This one will probably take you forever.

Zacura: For your information, I have been very busy.

Toguro Ani: Yeah, you mean fucking my brother? Yes I do believe that it is very productive.

Toguro Otouto: Leave her alone, brother. She is the author you know, and she can do anything to you, even kill you.

Toguro Ani: Shut up. You're just defending her because she made her character fall in love with you.

Toguro Otouto: I'm doing no such thing. cough

Kurama: Stop this at once. Zacura was my mate, and she's still mine.

Toguro Ani: The key word in there Fox, is 'was'. She was yours. Now, she's mine.

Kurama: That's not true. She's still mine!

Zacura: Will you all just shut up? You'll distract the readers from my story! Now look what you did you scared all the birds away.

Toguro Ani: What Birds?

Zacura: EXACTLY! My God…. You guys are so loud.

Kurama: Now look what you have done. You have upset my mate.

Toguro Ani: Did you not hear me five minutes ago Fox? She's not yours anymore. Get it baka?

Kurama: gasp you're so hurtful. But I still disagree that Zacura is yours. You know why?

Toguro Ani: Why?

Kurama: How can she be yours, when she's obviously still mine?

Toguro Otouto: Hey what about me?

Kurama: Yeah, what about you?

Toguro Otouto: I say she's mine.

Zacura: GUYS! Look, I don't belong to anyone. How's that?

The Guys: Yeah, that sounds fair. Hey. Wait a minute, what are we saying?

Zacura: Ok then. Sorry bout that little hold up folks. NOW ONTO THE STORY! YAY! Here comes chapter 4 "Unexpected Christmas Visitors". Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Christmas at Zacura's was confusing, yet festive. Even Yukimura and Zyke were wearing Santa hats, and scarves. In the living room, the Christmas tree stood proudly in one corner of the room. There were blue, red, green, silver and gold lights, and many little and large glass ball decorating it, and of course, who could forget that dazzling star at the top? Zacura was zipping in and out of the house all day, pampering up her dojo. She had dusted six times, vacuumed four times, washed three times, swept seven times, looked over everything twice, and did whatever else needed to be done. (A.N/ She has a compulsive disorder. What can I say?)By the time she was done, the dojo was shining, spotless, and she was proud to call it hers. It was two nights before Christmas, and Zacura was tired (and who could blame her?). Zyke and Yukimura were accompanying her sleeping on the couch. Zacura was half awake, day-dreaming (or in this case, night-dreaming. LOL.) Zyke woke suddenly, sensing that something was wrong and started growling. Zacura heard him, but paid no mind. Then, the doorbell rang. It was a long almost impatient tone. Zyke growled louder, and Zacura was shaken from her musings. She sat up and rubbed the sleep from her eyes, got up, crossed the room, up to the front door and peered though the peep hole. When she saw nothing but a blur of green, she opened the door. (A.N/ You know how cheap peep holes are. You can barely see a thing.) At first she was so shocked at what she saw, that she had no reaction. When she snapped out of it, she took a step back. None other than Toguro Otouto entered and shut the door behind him. (Evil organ music)

"W-what are you doing here? What do you want? Get out of my house!" Zacura said angrily, scared to death, and angry beyond comprehension.

"We need to talk." Toguro said ever so calmly. He took a step forward, and she took a step back. He took another step forward and she took another step back. This continued until he had her up against the wall of the living room. Zacura looked around for help from her feline and dragon, but they were nowhere to be seen. Zyke and Yukimura had fled to the second floor of the house, because knowing Zacura; she would fight hard and or would probably blow up half of the house trying.

"What do you wish to discuss with me? Zacura asked, trying to keep her voice from trembling, her eyes narrowing.

"Very, private matters." he said, looking down at her. He truly just wanted to break out laughing at how pathetic this was. (A.N/ Just imagine that for a moment.) Zacura was a very well known, powerful fire demon from the demon world, and this was all the fight that he got. It was sad to see her like this; backed up against the wall of her living room wearing nothing other than pink pajamas, and fuzzy bunny slippers. It was perfectly sad, but easier than he thought. "I don't think you two have properly met." he continued, gesturing to the much smaller demon standing at his side. (No offence, but Ani is like, three, maybe four feet tall). Toguro Ani was grinning and waving stupidly at her, and started to laugh. (A.N/ Yes lady fans of Ani. This is Ani's famous high-pitched witch laugh. But that makes him all the sexier, doesn't it? grin) Zacura rolled her eyes, for one moment her confidence rising. 'Men.' She thought to herself.

"I do not wish to be acquainted with your grandmother Toguro." snapped Zacura. She was really starting to get uncomfortable. 'What do they want with me? I have done nothing to anger them. To be honest, I should be the one that is stalking them. After all, they did kill my loved ones' She thought.

"This is my brother." said Toguro calmly. 'This may take a while, but it is worth my time.' he thought. He glanced down at his brother, noting the passion, and affection that he saw in Ani's eyes. (A.N/ Wow. Ani actually cares about something. For once.) Getting back to the matter at hand, he looked at Zacura again. Zacura had momentarily glanced at Ani, but then glared down at the floor again. She was currently reviewing her options. 'Let's see.' she thought. 'I'm stuck in my own house, with two crazy guys that could easily kill me, but I don't want to burn down my house. So there's not much that I can do except wait for an opening. Perfect. Just perfect.

"I struggle to see the resemblance. Really I do." Zacura smirked.

Toguro leaned forward, roughly grabbed Zacura's wrists and pinned her to the wall, her feet at least two feet from the ground. Although she tried to kick him away with her dangling legs, it was no use. He was much too strong. He put his face so close to hers, that she could feel his hot breath on her neck, and face. She coughed.

"You're a very beautiful girl. You do know that, right?" Toguro asked slyly.

"What do you care? You don't care about anything. You're evil and heartless." Zacura snapped back. She tried to spit into his face, but missed.

"Zacura, I'm hurt." Toguro faked emotional pain, by changing his expression. "Really I am. I cared enough about you that I spent all this time stalking you, and even took the time to come here tonight to kill you."

"Gee. How thoughtful of you. You shouldn't have." Zacura said sarcastically. Tightening his grip on her wrists, he bent even closer.

"I thought you would approve." He said. He smirked down at her through his sun glasses. 'I wonder what his eyes look like. He's always wearing those out of date sun glasses…….Whoa, where did that come from. Stupid conscience.' Zacura thought, mentally hitting herself. She had been so caught up in thinking, that she didn't notice Toguro come down for a kiss, until it was too late. His warm lips brushed her forehead, and moved gracefully down to her cheek. Zacura stood stalk still. It scared her that two men had come to her house to kill her, and the fact that one of them was kissing her didn't really help either. (A.N/ Go figure though, huh?) She however, noticed that his guard was down, and she used that to her advantage. She suddenly shoved him with all her might. Thankfully for her, she shoved him hard enough to force him to let go of her. She took that opportunity to make a run for it. She ran towards the front door, but Toguro Ani stopped her by tripping her. Zacura hit the floor with a thud. But that didn't stop her. Although she knew that she would never be able to get out of the house, she stood up again, and made a run for the stairs. She got up the first eight steps, when she felt something tug fiercely down on her leg. She yelped in a mixture of fright and pain and brought her other foot down as hard as she possibly could. The hand that had held her fast, released her and she continued her assent up the stairs. By the time she reached the top of the stairs, she was panicked and out of breath. She spun around just in time to fling herself to the ground to dodge an attack from Toguro Otouto. His brother was also aiding in the chase, coming swiftly up the stairs behind his brother, and tackling Zacura to the ground, just as she was getting up again. Panting like a dog, she gave up.

"Are you going to come quietly now? Toguro Otouto asked, smirking down at her. Zacura was panting so hard, that it took her a moment to answer. Finally, she gathered the strength to nod her head. "I thought so." Toguro Otouto said, still smirking. Bending over, Toguro hoisted Zacura onto his shoulder, and carried her back down stairs, his brother following the two silently. Zacura was beginning to panic again. 'Ok, this is really bad. I don't know what to do. I need help.' She bounced slightly with each step that Toguro took. As if he lived there, Toguro navigated the hallways until he found the room he was looking for. 'Oh come on. Why is only getting worse? Why isn't Enma on my side?' Zacura had started to struggle again. She gritted her teeth, and wiggled back and forth rather violently. Her body started to become hot, and started to sear Toguro's hand. Yet he held her as if nothing had changed. Zacura concentrated harder and she became even hotter. Still his grip did not falter. He reached out, turned the door knob, and entered the room. He roughly slammed the door shut in Ani's face, and threw Zacura down on the bed. (A.N/If you are totally confused, they are in Zacura's room. For those of you that got the hints, good for you.) Outside Zacura's room, Ani was pouting. (A.N/Awwwwwwww…………….Poor baby………oh sorry. Just pretend that I didn't say that.) After a moment, Ani decided that arguing with his brother wasn't going to get him what he wanted either. He shrugged and turned to walk back to the couch in the living room. Once he reached the couch, before he sat down, he took a moment to inspect it. It was made of red silk with black and gold designs embroidering it. He settled down on it, and almost instantly fell asleep. Back in Zacura's room, it wasn't going so well. Well, for Zacura at least. Toguro was having the time of his life. Zacura was dodging around the room, with Toguro following every move she made. Finally, she was caught. She had jumped off of the bed, which now had the sheets torn, and ripped, and Toguro caught her by the ankle.

"No! Let go of me! LET GO!" Zacura screamed at the top of her lungs, hoping that someone walking by would hear her and come to save her. But what were the chances of that? It was like, 10:00 pm or something. But she didn't give up. She kept on screaming and yelling until Toguro had had enough of it. He dragged her to him by her ankle and smacked her in the face.

"Be quiet, bitch." growled Toguro between his teeth. When he wouldn't let go of her, she started to struggle again. She twisted and kicked, and screamed all at the same time. That's where she went wrong. Toguro had shifted his position to shift his weight, and her heel dug slammed right into his cock. He howled in pain and let go of Zacura. Zacura grinned to herself, having just found his weak spot. (A.N/As if she wasn't smart enough to know that already. I mean come on.) But Toguro was on top of her in a second. He gripped her so tightly, that she let out a little squeak. But that's where Toguro made his mistake. Zacura tilted her head forward, and brought it back extremely hard into Toguro's face. He howled in pain again but this time fell backwards onto the bed, hitting his head on the head board, knocking him out cold. But he brought Zacura with him. Her head hit the headboard as well, and that was another K.O.

A.N/ I'm sorry about the cliff hanger people, but that makes the story more interesting. I'm also sorry that it didn't get as long as I wanted it to be, but I got it longer. If you think this is disturbing, you don't need to read any further. But to those of you that did review, I thank you.
