Chapter 2-Springs new day
Xero was sitting in the forest of magic reading one of the books his friend patchouli had given him to study, over the past week he had mastered so many new spells and had even impressed remilia. He was so much in her debt that xero hoped he could pay her back for the hospitility it was then a black youkai had come and attacked him with darkness but he bounced out of the way and shot a fire spell to counter attack "mmmm a delocus human" rumia smiled.
Xero remembered it was the youkai that attacked him when he first arrived in gensokyo "i'm going to get you back for hurting me that day" Xero said and slammed his fists together as they became fireballs and he punched at rumia and smacked her into a tree...she was pretty weak he thought and realized she wasnt a very strong youkai.
But it was personal to him because if not for marasa and remiu he would have been this youkais meal so he grabbed her by the neck and held her against the tree "i should break your fucking neck you scumbag!" xero roared still angry with her and rumia began to cry "please have mercy on me I will never do it again" she sobed "your just a little fucking coward arent you? Preying on innocant humans do you not understand humans are living beings like you? What right do you have to eat them?" xero blasted
he picked her up and threw her to the ground as she broke her arm "unlike you I am not a fucking monster so I will let you go but from now on you will leave other humans alone" xero ordered and rumia nodded and ran away crying.
Then a girl with red trousers and a white shirt had come out "that was pretty impress you'd make a good youkai hunter" the girl said "Who are you?" xero asked and she bowed politely "my name is fujiwahi no moku I am a youkai hunter and an immortal pleased to meet you" she smiled and shook xeros hand
"i was thinking of becoming a hunter since I am training to be a mage" xero smiled and moku nodded "well some practcal fighting will help too how about I teach you a bit of hand to hand combat? I have some free time anyway" moku said "Sure i'd love to spar with you moku" xero replied.
For the next four hours the two of them trained as she showed xero the very basics of hand to hand combat and even impressed him with her fire powers as she told him the story of how she became immortal and her love for a certain moon princess as well as a rivry.
Later that night they went to the human village to get some beer at the local bar as they chatted and reflected on the day "yes I was in love with kaguya once but we grew to be enemys as well it is complated" moku said and sipped her beer "and from what you've told me about these moon people I don't like em very much" Xero said "thats because they have a belief of total purity and despise impure beings like humans or youkai they even want to stop humanity getting into space so they can maintain there power forever" moku said.
"they sound like racists! There was a group like that in the outside world called the nazis and they where pure evil and hated anyone that was not a white person...when I hear about people like that that look down on others I just wish I could tear them down" Xero sighed and drank his beer.
Then moku leaned forward and forced xero into a kiss as he pushed away for a moment "Do you not like me xero?" Moku asked "it's not that...my heart belongs to another and well I still think kaguya loves you and one day you can overcome your differences with her...it would better that way" xero sighed as he blushed not expecting what she just did.
Moku looked towards the floor and finished her beer "I'm sorry guess it was a spur of the moment thing I will see you tomorrow" she said and took her leave.
Xero paid for the drinks and left to return to the scarlet devil masnion, he had training to do with patchouli tonight and he could not afford to miss it
at one in the morning the human village was silent for the night as everyone was in bed except the mayor who was in his office alone as he was thinking but then a shadowy figure had entered the room and locked the door "so you came...youkai..." he said and sipped a glass of whiksy he knew who this old youkai was and what she wanted "i told you before I will not pass those laws this village is for humanity you youkai already control most of gensokyo and you want more?" he sighed
the youkai picked up the bottle and smashed it into lots of shards on the table "we're passed that point you human filth! Since you can not compromise we shall remove you and replace you with a mayor more sympathetic to our needs...you see a new order is coming here in gensokyo and even beyond and sacrifices have to be made in order to ensure the plan is a success" the youkai said as she cast a spell to paralize the mayor as he looked on in horror.
The youkai picked the glass shards up and shoved them down the mayors mouth then picked more up and shoved even more bits of glass down his throat until his mouth was stuffed with blood and broken glass "EAT IT YOU FILTH! EAT IT AND CHOKE ON IT! DOES IT HURT?! EAT IT! EAT IT! EAT IT AND DIE ALREADY!" The youkai screamed as she forced his jaw shut, pushing it up and down forcing him to chew and shollow the broken glass until he drowned in his own agony and blood and was dead "hopefuly the gods are kid and reincarnate you as something better than this" the youkai said and vanished.
