Chapter 27

Yunie starred at her as she began to call for help. She pulled off the blanket and grabbed her sword off the horse. Just then many people ran out with weapons and surrounded them. Yunie sighed and starred at them. Kisho and Tai looked around as little Kisa kept on sleeping. Yunie sighed.

'what the hell you want?' Someone growled at her.

'a place to stay for a night.' she muttered. 'problem?'

'yes. A creature like you don't belong here.' he growled.

'oh. I thought the only creature here was you lot.' Yunie growled at him.

'watch it demon. You know what would happen when you returned here.' came a voice of a old man.

'oh look who it is.' Yunie said starring at him. 'the head of this village. Where's that bh for a wife of yours?'

'she is at home.' he snarled.

'maybe i should go and pay her a visit.' Yunie muttered.

'don't even think about it.' he growled.

'what you going to do about...' KIsho placed his hand over her mouth to shut her up.

Kisho looked at them. 'look. I dont know what is going on but all we need is a place to stay for the night.' he said. 'look Yunie is not a demon...'

Some people laughed and the town head stepped forward. 'it seems you don't know much about her, my poor misguided child.'

'look.' Kisho sighed. 'just for the one night. Could you let her stay here. If it makes you happy i will watch her all night and not let her out my site.'

'am sorry but no.' the town head muttered.

Yunie broke free of Kisho's grip and moved towards him. 'keep your window open.' she whispered in his ear.

With that she jumped onto someone's shoulder who was near by and jumped onto the roof. Kisho and Tai watched as she ran off along the roof tops. The people moaned and some followed her to make sure she lefted. The people slowly began to walk away but the village head. Tai walked into the inn to get Kisa somewhere dry and a nice warm bed. The village head walked over to them and looked at Kisho.

'my boy, you need to learn that there is more to her then meets the eye. She is a murder and she is brutal. She has no emotions, she may act like she has but she doesn't.' he explained. 'Yunie is not a pleasant young woman, she is a demon.'

Kisho starred at him. 'i have been with her for a while and she seems normal...' he looked at the ground.

'your not sure are you boy?' he said looking at him. 'do you know her as well as you think?'

'i think so...' Kisho muttered.

'tell me, have you seen something strange about her or something you couldn't explain for you know that what she has told you is a lie?' he asked him.

'umm...well there is...' Kisho looked at him and remembered the time when she was bleeding and she said she fell over in the bath. He also remebered all the times he saw the demon fire cat but she wasn't there.

'there is isn't there.' he muttered. 'bewarned Yunie is a lair and a murder.' with that he left.

Kisho stood there, rain falling down his face as the words 'murder' and 'lair'. He walked into the inn and headed to a room. Kisho walked into the room and Tai looked at him. Kisa was asleep in a bed. Tai looked up at him and smiled. Kisho walked over to the window and opened it and looked out at the sky.

'my Kisho. What heaven is the matter?' Tai asked.

'nothing old man.' Kisho muttered. He looked at the sky, thinking about everything. 'just go to bed.'

'don't listen to him.' Tai muttered seriously. 'If Yunie is hiding anything from you she will tell you when the time is right.'

Kisho remained quiet as Tai climbed into bed. It became quiet in the room and Kisho continued to stare out at the sky. Rain still fell and there was no sign of Yunie. Just as he was about to climb into the bed. There was a noise and he turned around. There stood Yunie, soaked though. She smiled weakly at him, shaking and cold. Kisho grabbed a blanket and ran over to her placing it around her.

'you get out of them clothes.' Kisho muttered. 'i will see what is in the bag.'

She nodded and began to get undressed with her back turned to him. He turned around without thinking and saw her remove her top. He dropped the clothes as he starred at her, blushing. On her back was two idential marks which was a mirror to one another. The skin was torned up and it seemed that it was just healing. Also long her back was many deep scars and cuts. Some were fresh. Yunie looked at the floor and remained stood there. Her hands were on her shorts but she didn't pull them down. She felt Kisho put his hand on her back and place a cloth onto it. They was quiet as Kisho began to treat her wounds.

'um...Yunie.' Kisho muttered. 'what happened?' Yunie starred at the floor. 'Yunie? Yunie answer me.' He asked turning her around.

All long her body was busies and deep cuts. Kisho looked at her body and then turned around. He looked out the window and took a deep breath.

'so when you talked about being...ra...raped and stuff...you wasn't lieing to me.' Yunie didn't talk. 'i thought you...i guess i didn't believe you when you told me about the rape thing...i guess i should of...am sorry...' Yunie remained quiet. 'Yunie...come here. Am going to treat your wounds.'

Yunie remained quiet and refused to move. Kisho stood up and looked at her. He was really uneasy and wasn't sure on what to do. Kisho sat Yunie down and began to treat her wounds for he refused to wake up Kisa or Tai. After treating her wounds that was on her body and legs he looked at her as she starred at the ground. Kisho placed one of his tops on her and he stood and looked out the window. He felt something land on him and he looked down seeing Yunie there. She had thrown her arms around him and was crying her heart out. Kisho placed his arms around her and held her close as she cried.

'Yunie you okay?' Kisho asked.

'do i look okay?' she cried. 'i should of been more careful but no. About ten of them had to come out didn't they.' she cried out. 'i should of not came back. I shouldn't of came back.'

'Yunie am sorry.' Kisho sighed. 'it's my fault...if i knew they was going to...to...i should never of said to come.' Yunie looked up at him tears streaming down her face. 'Yunie come on lets go to bed.'

'no...Kisho...the dreams i have been having lately...are nightmares i have had when i lived in the village...' she began.

'Yunie...what brings this up?' Kisho asks looking down at her. 'Yunie why are you bringing this up?'

'because i want you too know.' Yunie muttered. 'my dreams are them of a person, standing within the darkness of the night on a bridge. Tears are streaming down her face but yet i cannot see her face. She wears a black dress and have black and pink wings. It is like she is standing there in waiting of someone to come. Then there is footsteps on the bridge and a man comes along. He too you cannot see his face. He walks over to her and then thats it. They stand there in starring at one another. Everytime he walks away and she is reaching out for him but he never looks back. Then she drops to the floor and then there is loads of fire, screaming and then i wake up from it. It is strange but maybe it is telling me something...but i dunno what?'

'the girl sounds like the demon fire cat.' Kisho muttered. 'but...' he looked at her. 'lets not worry about that. I mean you just...you know...and that is more important.'

'but...but...' Yunie tried to explain.

'no...no buts...you are to rest and i will stay with you.' Kisho said.

Yunie looked at the floor and he picked her up and carried her to bed. He laid down and placed her onto him. A tear rolled down Yunie's face but she fell asleep and Kisho laid there most of the night with her until he finally fell asleep.
