I am now the proud owner of the Berserk DVD box set! Sweet, huh? I get lucky with other things but not with Inu! How does that work? I'm going to hide in a closet. "Good-bye cruel Sheaka-luck-hating world!" Basyl stay away or I'll probably lock you in the closet instead. — Sh34k4

Her whole body froze up as her mind registered his request. She blinked once, then twice. Hell, she had to blink another time just to let the words sink in.
"You can't be serious." She said it in such an offhand manner, she hoped it covered her discomfort.
He quirked and eyebrow, his eyes boring deeply into hers seemed to silently ask her if he looked like he was joking. "The moment you accept my terms, you'll own the street and I'll have you." To her ears, he was calm and untroubled by the dagger at his neck but to him . . .he couldn't hear anything above his heart beat pounding in his ears. She was practically glued to hi and was making his brain addled.
"I just don't get it. What's this owning business about?" She was nervous, he could tell by the tone of her voice. Carefully, he answered her.
" You'll be my girl, Kag. That's it. It's not like I was planning on forcing you into slavery. Jeez, give me some credit."
"Oh, I'd figured that but the way you said it seemed so odd." She wrinkled her brows in the cutest little frown he'd ever seen in his life.
Trying to distract himself, he scoffed, "Babe, I don't thing there's anything about me that's normal." She gave that remark a dismissive sniff before glancing down at her daggers.
Sighing heavily, she put them back in their sheaths and watched him turn towards her and rise. He kept eye contact with her and she knew she was sinking fast when that alone caused her stomach to quiver.
"So, what's it gonna be?" he drawled as he took a step forward and picked up her left hand, massaging it as he held it.
Nope, she wasn't sinking. She'd drowned.
"Yes." Try as she might it came out a dreamy sigh that was totally embarrassing. He didn't seem to notice though cuz he was smiling that beautiful fangless smile of his that made her stomach flip at least three times.
"Good, darlin'. No go stop you people from fillin' mine with arrows." He stepped away but still held her hand as she moved to the edge of the roof and leased some of her reiki on the choas below so that all of her people's wrist glew a navy blue.
As a unit they all moved to the side of the street Kag was on. Warily they watched the other gang and only San pulled her eyes away from the enemy to look up at Kag who smiled. San immediately lowered her weapon and began walking to the middle of the street to wait for the DDPack's 2nd-IC. He didn't disappoint her in making her wait long.
As he walked towards her, San gave him a healthly once-over. He looked to be fit enough, not bulging with muscle but fit and at least he only had a little ponytail at the base of his neck. His hair was a very nice dark black that looked silky all the way from where she stood. His eyes were a nice violet but his held a glint of nischief. Uh-oh, that smile was one of an experienced playboy — just when he was starting to like his looks too. This wouldn't do. She'd known his type and they weren't heres.
Mir was looking his fill as he walked towards the AR's 2nd –IC. She was pretty with long black hair that held streaks of purple in it all the way down to her waist. That bone boomerang packed a healthy punch that had sent him flying more than once today and he looked at it warily. She was looking at him in that calculating way women did so he smiled just for her.
She didn't smile back. In fact, her eyes flashed and she frowned at him.
What just happened? Mir wondered shocked. He had smiled and she'd frowned?
He stepped in front of her and looked into those nicely browned eyes and wondered what was the matter. He wanted to make everything better for her. Only for her . . . What FSCK was that! Holy shit, he was thinking of c . . .c . . .commitment! His head felt light and he wanted to sit down but quelled the urge. She was still watching him. But that didn't stop his stomach from rolling dangerously at the thought of going steady, but there it was sliding through his thoughts like a thief at night.
Sango waited for him to begin but he was obviously having trouble with something — probably shock — so she started by greeting him, "Dog Demon Pack, the Arrowreiki acknowledge you."
She nodded before letting a small smile spread over her face. Mir instantly wanted to see more but she smothered the desire and set her mouth into a serious line once more. Mir yearned for her to simply smile at him but she had procedure on the mind.
"Do you now forfeit all claims to this ½ of Main St. and acknowledge the AR as the new owners?" Her eyelids lowered to small shots and her fingers clenched, prepared to fight if he disagreed.
Now it was Mir's turn to look around for Inu. Only he could give permission to acknowledge their claim and Mir prayed to whichever god was listening he would cuz he couldn't see himself fighting her. He found Inu on the same rooftop the AR Leader stood upon. He nodded quickly and Mir nodded back and was about to turn around when he noticed something up there wasn't right . . .Oh well, the AR's 2nd-IC was more interesting than anything they could be doing.
"The Dog Demon Pack hears your claim," there were gasps from behind him and some of his people began to converse loudly. He help up his hand for silence and it was given. "Are you seeing anyone at the moment?" He felt so stupid after the words left his mouth and could have banged his head against the nearest brick wall. Where'd that line come from?
San raised an eyebrow at the breach of protocol but answered cooly, "Not now, nt anytime soon." She'D already decided to let him know the answer was 'no.'
For a second Mir actually looked taken aback or maybe shocked . . .it didn't matter. The look crossed his face so quickly she couldn't tell. San didn't realize it but Mir silently promised himself that 'anytime soon' would just have to be now . . .
