Day 13
N1: Can I help you miss?
O: I'm looking for Tagoro.
N2: The Younger is being detained here –
O: That's the one I want.
N2: Right this way, fallow me. She starts walking.
N1: If you don't mind my asking, who are you? You're very pretty.
O: Thanks. I'm Kira.
N1: Oh my goodness!
N2: Why don't you just go ahead and say "Holy Shit!"
O: Can we continue walking?
N2: C'mon. They reach a door near the end of the hall. This is it. She opens the door.
N1: Give a shout if you need us. they leave.
O: she sits on the stool near the bed.
TB: What do you want Kira?
O: Bui told me about a change in mate.
TB: Come to kill me then?
O: …no.
TB: Then why would you come here?
O: Just to talk.
TB: Why would you want to talk to me?
O: Why would you agree to help me when you don't know me and it's against your brother?
TB: …
O: What do you wish to know?
TB: Why would a creature like you be a bastard?
O: My father was a power-mad demon. He loved having a lot of power and having lesser demons worship him. My brother was a smaller version of him. He loved that even more, that his son would fallow in his footsteps…
(This continued for an hour)
He loved to abuse me so much, that I became accustomed to it. It was part of my everyday schedule. But then one day he went too far in punishing me for whatever he thought necessary. I was thrown over the edge and my power increased at a straight up incline. It was too much for me to handle all at once. I snapped and slaughtered everyone.
TB: I'm sorry.
O: It's just the past right? It doesn't matter?
TB: Yes it does. Not having a good childhood is damaging.
O: What was yours like?
TB: My brother slaughtered my father. My mother asked those two nurses to take care of me, so they took me away. Then she killed herself so she could be with my father. But being raised by those two wasn't so bad. Unfortunately I'd have to say it was the highlight of my life. Don't tell them I said that though, it would give them crazy ideas.
O: Alright, I won't say anything. I should go now. She gets up to leave.
TB: Is talking to me really that bad?
O: No. It's just a lot to take in all at once. I'll see you later.
TB: Promise you won't run off on me?
O: …sure. Oh and by the way, I'm camped out in your room.
TB: So I've heard.
O: I figured I'd tell you myself.
TB: How thoughtful.
O: She smirks. Don't get used to it. She leaves.
(Late afternoon / Early night)
TB: He walks into his room to find Owl sleeping on a couch, curled up in a blanket. …She's kind of cute when she's sleeping. Good night. He walks over to his bed and goes to sleep.
A – Asmodeus Illuminati
Day 14
B: Now I want you to light that metal ring by shooting this flaming arrow through it, ok? The target starts at 25ft.
O: Fine by me.
(A few hours later)
B: 275ft… 300ft!
O: Can I shoot a moving target now? I'm bored!
B: Just because you're able to shoot targets 300 ft away doesn't mean that you can just switch to moving targets. You need to shoot more.
TB: I see no harm in her going after moving targets. She's a good archer.
B: Unless she chooses one of us as a moving target.
TB: Point taken. Is she allowed to take a break from target practice?
B: I guess she could take a break. She's been complaining that she's bored.
O: What is it you want Tagoro?
TB: A friend of mine has come to visit for a few days.
O: So?
TB: He's cursed as a berserker and is fond of weaponry.
O: What's your point?
TB: I've told him about the weaponry you've been making –
O: He better not be touching any of them. She glares at him.
TB: Well…
O: He is! I can sense him! He's dead meat! She disappears.
B: Didn't you warn him about Kira?
TB: Yes, but Asmodeus is slightly insane. You know he is.
B: I thought that his love interest, being a schizophrenic as she is, he would learn to be a little more careful around women. But apparently not.
(In Owl's room)
O: What the fuck do you think you're doing? She finds a demon dressed all in black, bladed boots, trench coat, reddish purple hair and violently green eyes in her room.
A: Looking at these weapons.
O: Who said you could touch them?
A No one –
O: Get out of my room! Put that back!
A: So you're the one who makes weapons. How old are you?
O: None of your damn business! She has him pinned against the wall with a dagger at his throat in a millisecond. She is slightly startled as she sees that his appearance has changed. His reddish purple hair has turn silver and his violently green eyes have turned blue. She then realizes that although she has a dagger held lightly against his throat that he also has a dagger in hand gently poking her in the gut. What now if you'd be so kind as to remove your weapon, I'd like to get off the wall.
O: You touch my artwork again without my conscent and you're a dead man.
A: Please, be reasonable. I'm sure –
O: I am being reasonable. You will head my warning or die.
A: Aren't you being a little bit violent?
O: No.
A: I think you are so why don't you just calmly put down your dagger.
O: I'm perfectly calm already.
A: Well if you could lower your dagger, I'm sure we could come to an agreement.
O: I don't make pacts with mortals.
A: But you made a pact with my friend, Tagoro the Younger.
O: What do you know of that? Her claws dig into his collarbone.
A: Um… could you possibly… release your grip?
O: Tell me what you know right now!
A: Only that you'd be his mate if he kept his brother away from you.
O: What else do you know!
A: That's all I know! I swear!
O: I don't believe you! Her eyes glow completely orange and she stares at him with a blank expression on her face.
A: His eyes go wide as he realizes that she's reading his mind. NO! You can't do that! he collapses, his dagger clattering to the floor.
O: Her eyes stop glowing and she comes back. He wasn't lying. She looks as his unconscious form. Oh well. At least I can get him out of my room.
Day 15
N1: Lina! I think he's waking up!
N2: Really Lana? I had no idea!
A: His vision slowly regains focus. Where am I?
N1: The hospital wing dear.
A: What happened?
N2: You pissed Kira off, nice job.
N1: Be nice for once Lina!
N2: I am nice! It just happens to be only for our son and his mate.
N1: Whatever. Does your head hurt?
A: I have a killer headache.
N2: I'm not surprised. Kira told us that she forgot to black out everything that had nothing to do with the information she was looking for. She got your entire past from yesterday back.
A: I felt her in my mind. I felt all my memories being taken. I tried desperately to get them back, but to no avail. How did I get here?
N2: Kira brought you here herself. She did it cause you told the truth and she didn't believe you.
N1: She still doesn't like you though. she hands him some motrin.
A: She was here earlier, wasn't she?
N2: yes.
A: I could just barely sense her, then I could sense her really well just before she left.
N1: That's because she healed you.
A: Well I should go now. Thanks.
N1: Be careful.
N2: Don't piss Kira off again.
A: Sure. He leaves.
Day 16
TB: Sorry I wasn't here yesterday. I had a business mission.
A: Do you know what your mate did to me?
TB: Yes. She told me herself.
A: How powerful is she?
TB: I'm not really sure. She's more powerful then Genki x5, so she's completely surpassed S class.
A: Wow. He whistles.
TB: Yeah, I wouldn't piss her off.
A: No kidding.
TB: Sometimes she doesn't know what she's doing though. Her kind of power comes with it's penalties as well as advantages.
A: Does she ever lose control?
TB: I've seen the results of a loss of control, but I've never seen her lose control.
A: Where is she?
TB: In her room, she's been out cold since 2 days ago according to Lana and Lina. How many memories do you have that she could be knocked out for 48 hours?
A: 666 years worth.
TB: No wonder she's been unconscious.
(later.)
O: regains consciousness and slowly opens her eyes.
TB: Did you have a nice nap? You've been out for a little over 2 days.
O: When did I black out? All I remember last is realizing he told the truth, bringing him to Lana and Lina, then starting to walk here after arguing with them. I could've sworn everything was fine, but everything started spinning. I know I didn't make it to the door, so how did I get here?
TB: I picked you up and carried you in here.
O: …oh.
TB: I didn't think you wanted to stay out there in the middle of the hall with my brother at the end of the hallway.
O: Thank you. She gets up, walks over and sits in his lap. …bit me.
TB: What?
O: You heard me, bite me.
TB: Why?
O: So I'm your mate.
TB: Are you sure? Do you really want to become my mate?
O: Yes. Would you like me to prove it?
TB: Considering what happened last time –
O: she kisses him.
TB: His instincts take over and instead of pushing away from her out of shock and fear, he kisses her back.
O: You will not deny me as your mate.
TB: wow…
O: I guess you enjoyed that eh?
TB: …can I get another one?
O: I don't accept requests from a non-mate.
TB: Then I'll fix that. He bites her, his brother's mark disappears. How about now?
O: As you with mate. She kisses him for the second time.
