She tilts her head at my response, and now I take the minute to actually study the female. The sun strikes mountains of blond, spilling from those ridiculous buns on her head. Blue crystalline eyes stare happily and full as if she embodies all that is pure. Nonsensical word indeed, pure, I hardly doubt there is much of that left. For a moment, there is a flash of wide white wings, but then they are gone. Great, now I am hallucinating. Could life just end for me, I'm getting tired of just standing here.
Hm, one of friends would jump at him if they were here, but sadly she is not. In fact she is on the other side of the world, being an idol. Dark hair reaches for the sky, navy blue hair tinging his tips, and white flairs around his bangs. Eyes of a dark pit, but in the right light, they are a striking red. Dressed all in black, one that has much practice living in the shadows. My eyes fall to the sword hanging at his side, a warrior. Though his aura give off something else, and my eyes draw to the white bandana around his forehead. With nothing much, I decided to finish our introduction if nothing else. "My name is Usagi." I state, my eyes pleading for him to response the same.
All right now I have a name for the nosy blond. Usagi, how ironic, a bunny rabbit is here to try and help me. Wouldn't it have made more sense to send someone whose name applies to what they do? Ah, whatever, again I am forced to react to her comments. Very well, I shall respond in turn. "Hiei." Is all I give her, and yet she smiles as if I handed her a large diamond necklace. At least this is what I assume is true about human women.
He has willing given me a name! What a name though, it suits him, strong and to the point. My eyes fall back to his sword though, I wonder, and my mouth opens to question. "Are you one of the silent warriors against the demons?" I ask. I see him consider his answer before even replying.
"Yes, and no." He answered, and I began to see a faint smirk on his lips. My eyes swell, as it is to my confusion, I want more, but I will not push. "For, those demons you fear, I am one of them." Hiei states and then gives me a mocking bow. Concern doesn't color my features at all, but my eyes dart back to that bandana. It's like a hidden secret, and as a protector of the people I dart forward and rip the boundary away.
I blinked, a human that can move that fast is a strange sight indeed. My bandana falls away and I feel the Jagan eye activate. Hmm, well I passed her test, let's see if she can pass mine, foolish human.
For a minute, I, Usagi, am hypnotized, much like when Demando tried this route. Then I see his soul light fading further, understanding then dawn's on me, this is his test for me! I am a guardian, and a guide, but how can I prove that if I succumb to this mind warping effect? Easily I move my head to alight gazes with him, stubborn to the lot. Demon or not, human or not, he is still a lost soul I must guide, else he would end up in Hotaru's domain.
"Nice eye." She states, as if the feat she pulled off was nothing. Hmm, I can feel the same respect I have for my team companions stretch to her. Though this test isn't done, and I slide my two normal eyes close and focus on my demon appearance. I feel the human skin slip from my outer realm, leaving me with my familiar green skin, and the thousand eyes that cover it. This shall amplify my Jagan eye and lets see if she is worthy enough to teach me.
Terrific, this test extends, what is he trying to prove by changing his appearance. Not put off, I feel the pull that resounds from him, now I understand. His third eye is made stronger by the numerous eyes on his body. I feel my hand moving not of my accord, toward my hidden pocket. Hmm, I don't think so Hiei, I cannot let you to lose what is left of that soul. Shoving my hand back to my side, I step forward, and tilt his chin up toward mine so as we are eye to eye.
"That is not going to work." Her tone is warning, and I feel a smirk on my lips. "Now surrender this nonsense, I have passed." Usagi tells me, and I could feel a kindred tinge in her tone. Very well, I will all my eyes close, and the reappearance of my human skin. "You didn't have to go that far, reverting back to your human skin." She remarks. An eyebrow of mine raises in response, we are still in the park.
"Human, we are still in the park." Hiei points out, hmm, he doesn't realize the barrier around us. So, it's time for his first test then, I shall see what kind of warrior he is, that has been driven to these droves.
"Are you sure about that?" Usagi inquires while crossing her arms, and stepping back from me. Then she arches her back, and pain could be seen on her face. What is this ridiculous human proving?
"About what?" I ask, perhaps intrigued by this human.
"About that whole sentence." She states, and then she stands slightly hunched but with those perceiving eyes. Hmm, something is off, most humans would run screaming from demons, not to mention she is to assured. My mind rethinks my sentence, the key word is human, perhaps she isn't one? Studying her, I feel no demonic aura, then again, she doesn't have a feel of a human, but still there is a ton of spiritual energy. A hand of mind grips my sword, she could be like that Sensui, a danger to this world. Then I let go, what the hell, I don't care.
"Ch..You aren't human." He finally stated. I let a smile shine through, he was doing marvelous.
"Very perceptive." Usagi returned. For a minute, I felt as though I did whenever I had to deal with Yuusuke. Then the agitation faded away, she was purposely baiting me. How can I react, I am a imiko, a boy of fire, it could be dangerous to revive the anger I once had.
"I do know you aren't demon either." I continued.
"True." She confirmed.
"You aren't a blasted half." I commented, yes, there were half-human, half-demons spawned between the races. Depending who they were born to, counted to the fact on how they were treated.
"Again true." Usagi returned.
"I don't know what you are." I bit out, I wasn't one to admit non-knowledge.
"Most don't." She chimed, again she was baiting me. For a moment, I reviewed what I knew of human history and religion.
"You are not one of those stupid Angels are you?" I finally caved to a question. Humans were so strange with their beliefs, winged humans, really. I was gifted with one of her laughs, which didn't harm my demonic hearing.
"In essence no, but I have been called such." I conceded, I could see that this small test was working. The flame in his soul was reacting, though, I don't know if the darker side of the emotional prism was the way to go. Oh well there is nothing to do, but to stay the course.
"Then what are you?" Hiei inquired of me.
"Guess." I respond. A tick could be seen forming, it's one of my specialities to get under people's skin. Rei could attest to that fact, not to mention Haruka.
"I would have to have reasonable clues to guess." He answered. Finally, I decided that this test was over, I shouldn't push him to much.
"I am what was called a Lunarian, however, I'm now known as a Universal." I answer him, and I can see him stew over that.
Two terms I had never heard of, could she be dangerous toward your world? Will I once again have to pick up my sword and defend it? Heh, it seems defending this piece of world is the only thing that gives my a reason to continue existence. Weighing such actions against logical reprisal, I gaze at her. What are these terms? "What are these terms?" I questioned aloud.
"History time all ready?" She inquires back. I nod, tired of this back and forth game. Either present yourself as a threat, or leave me alone.
Well, it's not history time for you. Though, it's a conscious effort to wait. It is easy to rouse the dark emotions like anger, irritation, sadness and such, because they lay just beneath the surface. At least, we will see what comes next, and you know the identities of the two. Please review, WCB.
