Tomoe's POV
I stood there sweeping the sorry excuse of a porch, and I mean really sorry... ( I can't believe the holes in the floor, and sadly rain damage was everywere... the Lightning God was here and she didnt help any... I wonder why she was so mad?) " This is ridiculous. I, the second most powerful Demon in the world is sweeping...This is a black mark on my reputation..." I sighed and dropped the broom. I looked around the tattered yard and dirty walkway. The Tori itself was cracked and falling down... 'What in the name of god did I get myself into?' I walked inside the shrine and moved towards my room when I heard an annoying conversation...
" But Master Fox is so troublesome! He even killed another Demon last night! How is he ever going to be a familiar? There are Gods out looking for him and the god of War thinks that he is dead." The spirit with the red lipped mask complained.
" Yes, Yes Onikiri! I heard he took a hard blow on the shoulder and went missing for three months, and when he returned he was even more violent," Kotetsu agreed.
"Oh why did Lord Mikage ever choose something as monsterous as the fox demon!"
' Huh...Strange. Why did that sting? And what are they talking about War god and shoulder injury? My arm felt fine, But then again...I did find a pale scare there just yesterday...But why did I not Remember? I shrugged off their hurtful comments and opened the door... " Yo! Where's Mikage? I wish to discuss matters with him."
" Oh Master Fox! Mikage is out at the moment, But He did leave you a message. He says that the vines in the yard need to be removed,and that he will be home soon!"
'...Home...' Why did that mess with my head so much? Have I already grown to this rundown piece of crap? Does it have potential?
" Very well. I will take care of the vines." I closed the door on their judgmental faces and walked towards the Outside. " Ha, Vines You say? How hard can this be
Mikage's POV ( People get ready for akwardness...)
"Wait! Wait! You have a familiar!? Mikage Darling you should have told me! Maybe my Familiars can have play dates with your Familiar! Oh this is rich! What type is your Familiar, Hum? Poodle? Terrior, Hound? Oh I don't care. As long as he is worthy of serving you!" Otohiko the wind god exclaimed. ( While having a cup of tea in his/her? Hand. Giggling at every move Mikage Made. Hense making the other god Present uncomfortable...)
" Well, I began... I didn't get a dog Familiar. I Really hate dogs and their constant barking..." I trailed off as Otohiko Gasped and put his hands over his familiars ears.
"Please! Mikage don't say such things! Besides, if not a dog what? I mean there isn't much choices." I laughed at that, "Well I actually got something more close to the cat family!"
Otohiko did a spit take ( All over me I might add...) And stood up quickly. "Cat!? He exclaimed. He then stood on top of the table... ( Note: We're in a Cafe in Izumo) and yelled. " Attention Everyone! I have an annoncement to make! Mikage is a... CAT LOVER!" He then proceeded by dancing in circles ( Still on top of the Table...) Screaming, " CAT LOVER, CAT LOVER, CAT LOVER!" I quickly grabbed Otohiko's Feather Neck thing ( Wha? I don't know what its called...) And jerked him down. " Please Otohiko I don't want anybody to know about him yet! I am trying to improve his outlook on life first." Otohiko Smirked, " Now come on darling! How bad can this kitty cat be?" I swallowed the lump in my throat and looked up, "He's not a Kitty-Cat. He's a... He's a F-Fox..." I watched as Otohiko's face went blank,
"So? I Admit Foxes are little devils, but If you Bind them their not so hard...Wait. What type of Fox did you say he was?" I looked up and smiled... " Wild... You know as in Tomoe second most powerful demon...Wild?"... ( Spit Take time!)

Author's POV
Tomoe looked at the Vines hanging from the Tori and laughed. " This will be simple, I do not see why those stupid Children thought I could not cut them down. HA! I won't even need shears. I have my claws at my disposal!" Tomoe looked up arrogantly laughing to himself. He leaped up to the tree branch hanging over the Tori and extended his claws. He sliced down with expectance, but paused. The Vine was still there..." What the..." "What is this?" Tomoe Questioned himself looking down at his claws. Was he off Today? He looked at the vine and sliced again. It was there... Tomoe looked at the aggervating weed.
"I have had enough of this Cursed Plant!" He picked up the Vine and bit down, only to regret it. "Ah Crap!" Tomoe put a hand on his cheek to try and comfort his now aching tooth. "This is ridiculous, He muttered as he stood up. Suddenly a gush of wind swooshed past his head.
"Crap! I missed him! That Stupid Fox escaped me once. He won't this time!" A dark and booming voice cursed.
Tomoe Froze. 'That voice is familiar...But from where?' He turned his head only to nearly be hit by a flying arrow. The Arrow Took him by surprise and his foot slipped, making him go over the edge of the Tori. Strangley He didn't hit the Ground as expected. Instead he looked up to see he was hanging upside down from the vines he tried to murder earlier...
"Well, Well, Well Look What we got here." The god of War Laughed as he walked up to Tomoe and Cupped his Chin, "You might have gotten away from me Before, but not this Time...That reminds me Fox... How did you Heal from that wound?" He smirked as He drew out his Katana preparing to slice right through the defenseless Foxes Neck. SLICE! The God looked cheerfully but was soon annoyed. Tomoe had moved his head just in time. Before the Sword went through his neck he jerked up so the sword only cut his hair. The only Injury the Fox Suffered was a small Graze on the Neck and a Short haired look. The War God growled in aggervation as he once again lifted his sword in the air. Ready to put The Fox Demon in front of him to death. Once-In-For-All...
Mikage's POV
Here I was walking home when I saw My New Familiar ( With a few Fashion Look I might add ) Hanging from a bunch of vines, getting ready to be slaughtered by my friend the god of War. Hum... Looked normal to me. 'But I should probably do something... Right? I raised my hand and the vines snapped the sword out of the War gods hand ( What's his name again?) Shocking him. "What THE-" I held up my hand and smiled, "Langauge my dear friend." He grunted and folded his arms, "What's the meaning of this Mikage? I have come to put down the Wanted Demon and you have stopped me? Such an act is Treason..." I smiled, " He may Have been Wanted, but he is My Familiar Now. If you were to kill my familiar...Now that would be an even greater act of Treason..." I smiled as his face turned red with Anger. " That Thing, He thrust his finger in Tomoe's Face, Does not even deserve to live, And now you are Defending it?!" I only sighed, " That Thing has a name. Its Tomoe. Also You should not address him as a thing. He has a heart, He has Lungs. He can Hate, So He can Love. So do not call him a thing Again..." The War god looked at me shocked and confused, " You will pay for this..." He jumped into his carriage and took off. Leaving me there. I Turned my head and almost died of laughter. Tomoe was hanging upside down with a confused look on his face, along with his hair laying on the ground... I waved my hand and the Vines released him dropping him perfectly on top of his head... " Crap..." I heard him mutter other things that I won't repeat. I saw a small trickle of crimson staining his Hakamashita (A/N A Hakamashita is a Hakama that is worn over a Kimono. They are mostly worn by men.) "Tomoe it looks like you were injured, I synonymized, Come lets go into the Shrine and we can see what we can do about that cut." He looked at me shocked, but then narrowed his eyes. " I don't need your help. I have never needed anybody before, and I do not need someone now..." I was surprised by his haulty attitude, but I only could smile. 'Its only his pride talking, I know he is Grateful...'
