"So...let me get the straight..." Anubis began, "You want me...to seduce a little girl that knows nothing, have seen nothing, probably so curious she'll just flop on her back and open up her legs if told?"

"Yes," Lady Kayura looked straight at him. "That's exactly what I want you to do."

He scoffed. "Count me out."

Her eyes lit up again and pouted. "Anubis! Pleeease?"

Anubis looked at her, annoyed. "Anyone can do that! It's too easy—I've better things to do."

"Aww...but I thought you liked her."

"You forget I hate kids."

She looked up at that thought. "Oh yeah...I've forgotten."

"And you also forgot that I was leaving..."

"Where?"

"To my aunt's. I already told you that."

She smiled. "Ohhh! Yes I forgot about that as well!" She giggled, but then she looked up at him and said, "But you hate her."

"Of course. You know I can't stand the old hag."

Lady Kayura stared at him. "Well, now I'm confused, dear."

Anubis sighed. "Well, I guess I WILL have to tell you everything..."

"Oh, do tell!"

"A person is visiting her..."

"Well, who?"

He smirked. "My next target."

She knew exactly what he meant by that and smirked. "I see. You did say something of that. Well, have I heard of her?"

"You may have..."

"Well, who is she, Anubis? I know a lot of people...so guessing is pretty much null and void!"

"Lady Mia Yamada."

A shy, young lady with auburn brown hair appeared in their thoughts. Her blue-green eyes were filled with wonder and virtue, and her smile, sweet like candy.

Her modesty is her personality...

Now Lady Kayura was surprised...not that she was jealous or anything... "Her!"

"Yes, her?"

She laughed. "Anubis, darling! Even I wouldn't dare go near her like that!"

"You wouldn't?"

"Ugh! That young woman goes by—quote, unquote—traditional values...and unlike most women you go after, she actually sticks to them!" She looked straight at him. "And by that, I mean, she would NEVER be unfaithful to her husband, even if her life depended on it."

He shrugged. "Yeah, yeah..."

"And General Yamada is one of most respected people in the land!" She frowned. "I fear for you, darling. Think what would happen if it be known that someone has seduced the wife of a very respected general!"

"My reputation will soar," Anubis smirked.

"I'm talking about your LIFE!"

"Look, Kayura. My conquests as of late had been so boring, and so much the same—you know I almost thought of going after young men!"

Kayura's eyes widened...

"I said, 'almost'."

"Well...your reputation has faded a bit because of that...but you know," she lit up, "I think ruining the life of a young girl is just as great...and it's not dangerous."

"Hmph."

Lady Kayura then signed. "Oh well...I guess I'll just have to find someone else to do the job...and a new man..."

Anubis ended up staring at her. "Really?"

"Well, you can't have all the fun, now!"

"Well..." He smirked and whispered in a low voice, "You can always contact me, anytime, Kayura..."

Kayura at first stared at Anubis...a bit shocked. Then she giggled. "Anubis, darling! Now that just wouldn't be right!"

"And how?"

She smirked back at him. "You won't even go after my little cousin! You say it's boring...but I think it's because you're scared you'll get caught!"

"What! I'm not scared I'll get caught—I just simply said that it would be boring."

"Of course, darling," and she giggled again. "The fact of the matter is, I need a REAL man! And you're not the hard and cold-hearted man I once knew!"

"I see," Anubis smirked and got up. "I have to leave anyway...time flies when one is having fun...as they say..."

And at that, he left.

He was about to step outside when—

"Anubis, darling!" It was Lady Kayura.

"Yes?"

She smiled gently at him...saying not a word.

"...What?"

"All right, Anubis."

"All right?"

"Just come back when you finally get to Lady Yamada, and I want proof—written proof from Lady Good-shoes herself," and then she moved closer, wrapping her arms around his neck, and whispered, "And we'll talk some more about... how does one say, 'getting together?' "

He smirked. "All right, then..." He was about to kiss her. "It's a deal..."

Her finger stooped his lips, and then she smiled. "After you get her...darling."

They parted ways and smirked at each other.

And then they both went back to their destinations—she went to her chamber...and he...right to his aunt's.

((A/N: All right! Finally!))
