All of the exorcists were gathered in front of the inn, I was in the back with the other Exwires while Shura was talking with Shima's dad.

"Okami-san thank you for having us." Shiemi said.

"I thank you for putting up with me and my brother." I bowed to the woman.

"Oh it's no problem at all, I wish we could've been more hospitable. I hope they didn't ruffle your feathers too much?" she asked, when I shook my head she handed me a bag, "Good well I got this for you just in case Ryuuji does anything to you again." It had a rubber chicken in it. I stifled a laugh. "Just swing it at him a few times and watch the humiliation begin!"

"Sorry ma'am, but we've come to an understanding." Bon looked over my shoulder.

"Oh god, really mom?!" he groaned. "It's bad enough she calls me 'Captain Wonder-wear'!"

She giggled, "Were you sleeping in your polka dot boxers again?"

I finally burst out into laughter and his mother followed soon after. Bon was stuffing the chicken back in the bag.

"And Utsukushi, it's nice to see you again after so long." Daruma patted my back once I had finished my laughing fit. "I see old relations have stirred yet again, you are clinging to Ryuuji again, but in a different way I see." he smirked as Bon blushed and I smiled.

"Yeah, and I prefer it this way." Bon added as he gave the bag to his mother, "I'm going to come back to rebuild, she even offered to help."

"Oh?" Daruma-san chuckled, "Well I expect you to take good care of those two. They're meant for great things, don't let her slip on the tatami again." he winked at the two of us before continuing.

"Looks like all of you have made up, and all is well."

Rin dragged me onto the bus and said, "Right back at ya, Suguro's dad!"

I sat in the back of the bus with Bon and the rest of the Kyoto trio. I fell asleep on Bon's shoulder.

"All right, now, if you guys thought we were just gonna get back onto the Shinkansen and head straight back to True Cross... THEN YER WRONG BIG TIME!" she shouted as we all stood in front of a clothing store. "Right now, I'm gonna have all of you buy a swimsuit!"

I raised my hand, "I got one already."

"TOO BAD SWEETHEART! Yer buying another, and I'm gonna pick it out~" Shura said happily. I was dragged away by her violently. I looked at Bon as I cried out for help.

"I hate you."

"No you don't, look you're not showing too much skin and it's so much better then that one piece you have!"

I growled lowly at Shura as she dragged me out of the changing room. My tail and one of my hands was gripping on a support pole for the bathroom. My other hand was being tugged off by Shura.

There was a knock at the door, "Is there any trouble in there?" It was Shiemi.

"Not at all-"

"GET AKUMA SURAISA!" I yelled.

"E-eh? Akuma Suraisa? What's that?"

"MY SCYTHE, ASK RIN OR YUKIO WHERE IT-" Shura managed to pry me off and I was flung out of the door. I stumbled into Bon, who happened to be at the door as well.

I blushed as he looked me over. "... Wow..." the top part of the bikini covered most of my chest plus an extra strap that looked like a neck-tie. The bottoms were shorts. the tie was a blood red while the rest was navy blue. He only had on a pair of red and yellow trunks with a single chain. His air was in a small pony tail out of his eyes.

I pushed him away and ran over to Shura. "I hate you."

"No you don't, here have a drink." she handed me a can that was labeled 'Watermelon soda'. I glared at her before opening it and sniffing it, it smelled fine, so I shrugged and drank it.

After getting to our destination I was on a high, "Yay! A BEACH, A BEACH!" I squealed as I held onto Bon from piggyback.

"Are you sure you're alright? That drink you had wasn't alcoholic was it?" Bon asked.

"Nah! It was watermelon soda!"

Shura nudged him, "If it was alcohol you wouldn't know, she can hold her liquor, just not her sugar."

"She's drank before?!" Shima exclaimed.

"Yep, the old man made the mistake of letting me watch her and Yukio while he went to a meeting for Rin. She found my stash of chuuchi while I was there and stole some. By the time I found them they were empty and she was just as normal as ever." She shrugged, "She has a high tolerance for loads of things, poisons, illnesses. All except sugar, she goes crazy when she has this stuff."

Shura peeled away the label on the can I had just drank, 'Watermelon soda, now with more concentrated sugar.'

Yukio glanced at me and shuddered.

I giggled as I rested my head on Bon's shoulder, "You smell nice... Like a chocolate Bonbon... I like chocolate..." I giggled madly and leaned backward to see Konekomaru, "kitty kitty." I began to pet his head and he just laughed nervously.

Izumo saw my show and raised an eyebrow. I gasped once the beach came into sight, "Sooo Cooool!"

Bon sighed as he walked us down to the beach.

I was set off to the side in the midst of a giggle fit and while they thought I wasn't listening, I was.

"Today's target to be exorcised, is a Kraken!" Shura said into a loud speaker. "All tourists have been evacuated. I'll leave the rest of the debriefing to Satou-kun from the information management division." she tossed it to said man.

"R-right! At slightly past 0.00 am today, there was an accident off the Pacific coast involving an open sea vessel being capsized. Shortly after that, the third regional coast guard department detected a large mysterious object on their sonars. The True Cross then received a request for an official data analysis from the coast guard headquarters. Early this morning the True Cross Order has concluded that it is indeed a Kraken. In order to lure the man-eating Kraken out we've been scattering human blood off of Sagami bay for about an hour now. Currently the Kraken is approaching Atami sunrise beach.

Shura cut him off by snatching the loud speaker, "Great thanks. Although there is no real plan, those ranked above middle second class will deal with the Kraken, those below will deal with the squid emitted from the suckers. Until then, feel free to stay in your holiday mood, all right? Dismissed."

I stared at the ocean dreamily as the high wore off.

I watched as Bon threw Izumo into the ocean. I giggled a little, but just continued to watch the waves.

"Are you doing ok?" Bon asked. "Calmed down?"

"Yeah, thinking... Please stop me. I don't like letting my mind wander."

Bon smiled as he picked me up bridal style. I blushed and held my arms around his neck. He waded into the surf with me still in his arms, once the water hit his waist though he let my legs go. I felt the sand beneath my feet and sighed.

I could feel his hand touch my back. I looked back and saw that he was looking at the scar sadly. The downside to healing quickly, is that they don't heal correctly like they're supposed to. The way that my back was tore up made a nasty scar that healed only mostly.

I turned around to keep him from staring, "Stop it, Ryuuji."

He turned away, "Fine," He smirked and splashed me.

The water got on my face so I sputtered and smirked back as I splashed him. We had a little splash war until I decided to break it by hugging him around the neck.

"Ryuuji-kun, guess what?" I whispered into his ear.

I could feel his shudder a bit, "Wh-what?"

"SLOTH!" I let my legs give out and pulled his and my weights down into the water.
