"Great I'm being kidnapped from my kidnapper," mumbled Tsuki.
"What did you say?" said the demon sharply.
"Oh.. nothing," said Tsuki grabbing her bag, which she always had with her.
The ice youkai put real ropes around Tsuki. He picked her up and started running.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, an ice demon has stolen Tsuki. What are we going to do?" cried Jaken running onto Sesshoumaru's study.
"I know. Let see if she is even worth keeping around. If she can't escape that week demon then she is no use to any one. Or even my kitsune youkai brother," stated Sesshoumaru plainly.
"So where are you taking me?" asked Tsuki absentmindedly.
"I don't think you want to know," answered the demon.
"What's your name?" asked Tsuki bored from watching clouds.
"My name? My, my you're a polite little girl. Well my name is Shin. May I ask yours?" the ice demon asked.
"Mine in Tsuki Kage," said Tsuki blushing inside.
"That's interesting. You read the scroll called Kage? It talks all about Kanji Reissue (Fire Attack) style demons. I know because I'm ice (the Kanji is my weakness)," said the rather proud Shin.
"That's because I wrote the scroll and my friend brought it here. I thought it was destroyed," said Tsuki shyly. She had written it in her spare time when she was studying about mythology.
"Wow, you will be really popular at my castle. We will be there by tomorrow morning," said Shin with a hint of sadness in his voice. "lets make camp here."
They made camp. Tsuki was surprised by the way Shin acted. He treated her like a queen. He made her a big dinner. It was only a variety of fruits and vegetables, he could tell she was a vegetarian, because she was pure.
"You are really to kind to me," said Tsuki looking down.
"Uh… listen, I am the Lord of my land but I cant always control my generals. If you value your humanity always stay close to me and have a weapon with you. Do you understand?" said Shin concerned.
"Yes, I understand. Um, you kidnapped me. Why do you act so concerned? I mean…" Tsuki said uneasily.
"Because unlike most demons and humans you are kind in all situations," said Shin blushing.
"Your so sweet," said Tsuki patting Shin on the head before she realized it.
She smiled at him before she stood up and went to a tree. She jumped up in it and fell asleep. Shin watched the girl for a while. He decided to shine his sword. He soon fell asleep peacefully beside Tsuki.
Tsuki woke just before daybreak. She quietly moved away from the sleeping Shin. She started breakfast, and washed up. Shin woke slightly surprised by what he saw. Tsuki had made him a big breakfast. It even had meat.
"Uh.. Tsuki what is all this?" he asked.
"Why it's your breakfast," said Tsuki happily. "By the way, I forgive you for kidnapping me. Sesshoumaru had kidnapped me, you know. Unlike him your fun to talk to though."
"Thank you, Lady Tsuki," said Shin bowing deeply.
"What's your title?" Tsuki asked casually.
"It's Hickory (light) Shin," he said blushing.
"That's interesting. Our names are opposite," said Tsuki drinking her green tea.
Shin dropped his glass. "G-men assai (I'm sorry)" he said scrambling to pick up the pieces.
"Don't worry. These glasses aren't that good any way. Um… by any chance while I'm staying with you could I have some one to train me?" asked Tsuki cutely.
"I could train you. Are you a miko?" Shin asked.
"No, I think I'm part some thing I just don't know what it is. See my father was killed before I was born," said Tsuki giving Shin another glass.
"Oh… so we better get started," said Shin nervously.
They arrived at the northern castle right before dark. They entered through the side door. Shin called a servant to fetch Tsuki some fresh clothes. He then washed and dressed. After he was done he sat on his bed, waiting for Tsuki to get ready. They moved a second bed into Shin's huge bedroom. They both were so tired that they when to sleep without any breakfast. Shin slept deeply. While Tsuki slept lightly.
