"So... how long have you been here?" asked Mariko. "I guess I've been here my whole life" replied Hakudoshi. "Okay" she said looking down. "So how're you feeling?" Hakudoshi asked awkwardly. "I'm okay" she replied. "I'm just happy I made a new friend" she said smiling. "Me too I suppose" he said half smiling. "Wait didn't you have friends where you lived?' he asked curiously, "Nope" she said simply."Actually I decapitated most of the people I saw" she said smiling. "Do you feel bad about it?" he asked. "Not really" Mariko replied happily. "Wow this forest is so huge" she said a little amazed. 'It's not that big once you get you get used to it" Hakudoshi said facing Mariko.
Out of the sky a demon female with red eyes and black hair named Kagura came down in front of the children. "Hakudoshi what are you doing here?" she asked annoyed. "What does it look like I'm doing?" he replied rhetorically. "Well it looks like your spending your time with a human than looking for jewel shards" she said pointing in Mariko's direction. Why does everybody think I'm human? Mariko thought annoyed, "For the record Kagura, I could do anything I want, and she's not human" Hakudoshi said. "Then what is she?" Kagura asked with a confused, angry look. "She's a diclonius" he said simply.
Kagura sighed and said, "Whatever just tells me next time you're going to leave". "Yeah, yeah, yeah fine" he said still annoyed. Mariko just gave a confused look and simply turned to Kagura and said "hi" smiling. "Hello" Kagura replied back sighing. "By the way why didn't you bring Entai?" she asked looking at Hakudoshi. "Don't know and didn't think about it" Hakudoshi replied annoyed. Kagura gave a look and said, "Anyways just don't get yourself into trouble" and with that she took a feather from her head and began to take off. "Who was that?" Mariko asked still confused. "That…is Kagura" he said sighing. "My some-what sister I guess". "It must be great to have a sister" Mariko said smiling. "Don't you have a sister?" he asked interested. "No, to be honest, I don't have any siblings or family that I know of" she said looking down.
"That must be a little tough for you" he said sympathetically. "Not really" she said looking up. "I kind of got used to it". Hakudoshi stayed silent for a moment and just kept walking. "Wow it looks like we're almost out of the forest" exclaimed Mariko. "You're right it does" Hakudoshi said somewhat smiling.
