The Hunt
"Wake up little one."
The dragon whispered softly in Ryyukiba's ear, and she rolled over in her slumber as her digital clock flashed one am.
"Arise, its long past time...Wake up.."
It coaxed in her ear and finally she openned her eyes and sat up, but as soon as she did she felt eth tingle of black fire envelope her body and teh dragon gently peeled his body from her flesh, the black fire serpent once more he glided through the air and flicked the lock shut with his fangs.
"What?" She asked tiredly and rubbed her eyes, but she knew what he wanted.
"I'm hungry little one."
She swung her feet out of bed just as the dragon reached her and slipped his coiling form around her, almost llike a snake..only...so powerful...a sensation taht couldn't be explained by one word came over her and he coiled around her and embraced her in chilling...yet warm fire.
Shee walked ttowards eth door, heer cpold feet silent on the ground as she flitted towards the prey room and openned the door.
It only took a few moments before the dragon had devoured three of the puppies and two rabits...
Ryukiba licked her lips, thinking back for a moment of what fresh meat had tasted like, and fior a moment she closed her eyes and fell into one of her own half memory, half fantasy.
Cold, foul tasting wind tugged at her clothes as she stayed low in the tall grass, unnoticed by the huge wild deer that roamed the forests of her home world, tall, twisted horns gleaming sharp and deadly as they arched their necks to nibble at the toxic leaves of the blade grass.
She moved forward slight and too a deep breath before springing, the deer bolted every which way as she smiled and gave chase.
With a well aimed throw her wakisashi struck home in one's skull, and she ran towards it, pulling her weapon free and sheathing it on her back before crouching low and inhailing the smell of the red blood trickling down its back.
It took only moments for her sharp fangs to cut through its tough hide, and as she took her first tear of delicouse red meat she leaned back and closed her eyes, savoring the wonderful taste in her mouth as blood ran down her chin...
Ryukiba was brough back to earth by the dragons laugh and found herself kneeling over one of the larger puppies, deep marks created by sharp fangs showed where it had been crually torn open as its blood ran down Ryukiba's chin.
"Did I-?"
"Its only natural little one, you carve, even desire the hunt and the kill."
It was the next morning when Kuroneko came in the obey the morning ritual.
"Ryukiba, wake up. Koenma's here and its nine o clock."
"Tell him I'm asleep.."
"He says its important."
"Tell me later..."
"Ryukiba Get up or I'm only buying vegatarian food."
"Grrrr..."
"Ryukiba, get up or I'm destroying your favorite chair!"
"Rawr!" Ryukiba said as she sat up and rubbed her eyes, glaring at Kuroneko as she stood and Ryukiba saw that look in her eye...the one that had filled her eyes for all but three years of her imprisonment...and teh words Kuroneko spoke where shaking, almost intimdaited as she told her friend.
"Koenam's ordered all of us to go to the makai..he wants to talk to you inorder to agree what to do about energy block on you he...wants us to fight in a tournament."
It only took a moment for Ryukiba to remeber why Kuroneko was shaking as a voice in her mind whispered,
"The one you desire is sure too attend, I swore I bring him too you...Yes, its been far too long that you have desired him among all others."
