Bankotsu: Tia owns nothing

"Your fucking crazy, am not a demon" said Bankotsu glaring at Hiten who smirked and rolled his eyes.

"Oh you are Bankotsu-itoko" he said and everyone gasped. Cousins, well that would explain why they looked so alike. "You don't remember, well you were only young when it happened"

"When what happened?" asked Bankotsu as he took a step closer to the cocky demon, who didn't seem to like it much as his eyes narrowed. He growled softly as he crossed his arm over his chest.

"Long story short when you were a pup the village you lived in with your mother was attacked and too keep you safe she locked your demon blood inside you along with your memories. That's all I know" he said taking more of an interest in his bloodied nails then Bankotsu. I put my hand on Ban's arm and gave him a squeeze. I knew how Ban felt about demons and to be told that his whole life is a lie and he is what he hates most, well that would be hard on anyone.

I let Ban go as he walked out of the room, he needed some time alone. I looked up and into red eyes. "What is it you wanted?" he asked raising a brow. I blushed and turned away, like hell I was going to tell this jerk about what I was going through. I jumped as I felt him behind me, leaning into to me and sniffing me. "You're going into heat I see!"

I spun around and glared at him as he laughed. "Prick" I hissed making him chuckle even more at my expense. He leaned back and looked to Souten who stood next to him glaring up at him.

"What you glaring at?" he hissed making the little girl roll her eyes before leaving the room.

"You know my mother?" I asked making him look at me again.

"I know of her, you go east and you will find her there" he said smirking. I didn't like the look on his face, he was up to something. My brows furrowed.

"What are you getting out of this, I mean am guessing this information isn't coming free?" I asked making him chuckle.

"Of course it's not free" he said walking over to me and taking my chin in his thumb and finger. "It has been a while since I have laid with a women, if you get what I mean"

My eyes widened and I glared at him smacking his hand away from my face. "I don't think so" I hissed making him laugh, looking down at me amused. He then grabbed my hair and pulled my hair so my head tilted back.

"Who said you had a choice women, like I said I don't give things for free" he hissed smirking. He looked to the side and let me go before being tackled to the floor.

"Get your filthy hands off her" hissed Bankotsu as he went to punch Hiten. Hiten dodged the punch and threw Bankotsu off, chuckling. Bankotsu glared at him as he got up and stood in front of me, protecting me. Hiten's head tilted to the side before he laughed.

"I see, the wench belongs to you cousin. Fine I guess I could think of a different payment" he said making Bankotsu stand next to me, still not taking his eyes off the demon. Crimson eyes held amusement as he walked over to us. "How does it feel little cousin, to know you're a demon inside a human shell"

"Don't call me that, I am not your cousin" hissed Bankotsu glaring at Hiten. I could see that this was upsetting him and so could Hiten, I think that was why he was doing this. The demon was getting some sick amusement from this.

"Oh but you are, our fathers are brothers making us cousins and since am so much older that makes you my little cousin" said Hiten leaning into Bankotsu face smirking. Bankotsu growled and went for the demon. Hiten seeing this smirked and threw Bankotsu across the room, all of us shouting Bankotsu's name. I froze feeling Hiten behind me, his arm around my neck making Bankotsu stop from attacking.

"Let my sister go" said Jakotsu glaring at Hiten.

"Anyone moves and I rip her head off" hissed Hiten pulling my hair back again. Bankotsu watched him carefully trying to find a way of helping me. "SOUTEN HURRY THE FUCK UP WILL YOU"

"Am here" she said walking over to us and Hiten took the vile out of her hand. He then threw it to Bankotsu and Ban caught it, looking at it before back to us confused.

"Drink it and I will let her go" he said smirking again. Why would he want Bankotsu to drink that, unless it did something that Bankotsu wouldn't like! My eyes widened as I realized what the demon was up too.

"Fine" hissed Bankotsu and he pulled the top off the vile, bringing it up to his lips.

"Bankotsu don't drink that" I said making Hiten pull my hair harder.

"Shut the fuck up women, if you want your mate alive then drink it" he hissed narrowing his eyes at Bankotsu. I shook my head, if he does this he won't be able to go back.

"No" I said as Bankotsu drank the liquid in the vile and threw it to the side, making the glass shatter.

"There now let her go" said Bankotsu and Hiten smirked letting me go. Bankotsu then went for him again but gasped as he fell to his knees. I ran to him along with the others. Bankotsu gasped and looked up as Hiten stood in front of him. "What have you done to me?"

"Nothing much, just gave you something to get rid of the barrier on you demon blood" said Hiten as if it was nothing. I knew it, he had this planned all along. Bankotsu tried to get up but cried out in pain as he collapsed to the floor, gritting his teeth to stop from screaming. "Don't worry it will only hurt for a minute or two, until you're in your true form"

I didn't know what to do, there was nothing I could do to stop this. All I could do was be there for him. My eyes widened as teal blue streaks started to run through Bankotsu's black hair and he panted, the pain had gone now. "Why?" asked Bankotsu softly before looking up at Hiten with crimson eyes.

"Don't take it personally, you were never supposed to stay human this long. If Ryura had found out I had found you and left you human, well it wouldn't have been pretty for me so am saving myself. Like I said don't take it personally" said Hiten turning away going to the door. He looked over his should at us. "You will be weak for a few hours so you all might as well stay the night"

He then walked out leaving us all alone. "Ban" I said softly taking his face in my hands. He looked up at me, his eyes back to their normal cobalt blue. Looking over him not much had changed, the major this being the streaks in his hair and the marking on his face some of which were fading. He had two teal blue marking on each of his cheek that was fading though his star was now teal blue. His ears had also grown a little bit and pointed, just like Hiten's had along with fangs that pocked out from his mouth. His nails had also gotten longer, into claws but that was it really. "Oh Ban, am so sorry" I wrapped my arms around him and we just sat on the floor hugging for a while.

Crimson eyes opened, a small smile gracing the young males face. "Your alive little one" he said making his two brothers look at him. He turned to them and they looked to the eldest. "We leave in the morning"

"Of course brother" said another male and they went back to what they where doing. The first male looked out of the window and smirked.

"Soon we will meet, son"

Tia opened her eyes and rolled over in the futon, sitting up when seeing that Bankotsu wasn't next to her. Her eyes roamed the room looking for him and she got up, going to him as he stood in front of the mirror. "You don't look too different" she said wrapping her arms around him.

He sighed and nuzzled his face in her hair. "It just feels different, every things more defined" he said looking around the room, seeing things his human eyes would not have saw.

"You get used to it, I know from experience" she laughed slightly making him look at her.

"I don't know what to do Tia, everything I have ever known has been a lie. My parents where never my parents, I am the very thing I have hated for years. What do I do now?" he asked looking at her but she sighed. She laid her head on his shoulder as she hugged him.

"I don't know Ban, maybe you should talk to him. He might be able to tell you things that you need or want to know" she said pulling back so he could see she was serious. He sighed and nodded his head, knowing he was going to have to talk to the elder demon at some point. "Let's go back to bed then"

"Okay" said Bankotsu and he followed her to the bed. Pulling her close to him as they fell asleep.
