And Meeting Master

The rambid demons now , frozen in place , snarling and almost slamming into them , as the aura of three forms appeared in front of them from the shadows , submerging the area in its darkness..

Darkness came , and with it silver mist shrouding all from sight , then a burst of energy broke forth into the skies seemingly from the area up ahead . A dizzying haze then soon came upon them , as little flakes of diamonds falling from the forced blackened skies, to block out the now hidden unforeseen light with it's midst. Wild vines ripping through the hardened rocky soil upward, as a barrier encircled the outsiders within, before the wicked plants began to captivate a hold upon their target .

Thus , it wasn't long before each one felt as if their bodies couldn't be held within their control for much longer , once one of the three in front of them responsible took a powerful stand to protect that which they had built, and in the end each one after a time slipped into a imposed unconsciousness, as each one was brought forth, transported to a separate spot within the stronghold until a better solution could be found. Upon a new development found by the acquiring of these new additions within their hold it became quite necessary for the one's having control at the moment t0 remain so , therefore it was only known that the demons only brought within their wake would need to be controlled as well..

The ones that couldn't be , would ultimately lose , memories forgotten or worse destroyed ..

Sounds of a new approach then made itself known ,as footsteps brought the sight of a emotionless face . A woman with long locks drenched in blackened silk , and eyes of deep chocolate , dressed in loose red satin brushing against that of creamy exposed flesh , as she closed the distance between them until standing in front with her facing them.

Happily blank chocolate eyes searched the amber's, chestnut's, and lemon-peels, as theirs found hers, in greeting , before the voice that emerged from those plump kissable lips ,and coating them in honey when the woman in front of them invited them inside. With a sultry sway of her hip's that made each one:Inu, and wolf heritage, druel , and allowing further for her to lead their every move, unwantedly. As she continued this way , and that , it soon became to either three following after, as to what it was that she had said only that it was her in front of them whom said the words.

Soon the three found themselves within a very large corridor opening up to a even larger hidden room where other's like them were mingling with their natural crowd, and before the woman who entranced them with her unnatural, and natural scent left , bidding her farewell. The moment the woman left , the effects of being within scenti9ng distance with her went as well. The three demon's shook themselves to clear their heads of the euphoric haze brought on by the departed woman's mere each one returned to themselves, their eyes found that of the other , as to confirm what it was that they saw, and it was proven in the underlying scent that was covered up by unknown reasons, or means , but by all the same it was known whom it was that just confronted them, unknowingly.

Kagome..

Many questions lingered within each of them , though only coming back with fleeting answers, and with it , was confusing them all the more. With the situation in mind , the three demon's went inside the big room to investigate futher, mingling , as to find what they needed to know about this place, as well as their lost companions.

~On the Outside, Looking In~

The two left behind in the demon's departing wake, the monk , Miroku, and the fox kit, Shippo, waited only observing the outside of the anomaly for which they weren't allowed to enter, as a barrier seemed to be surrounding the place within the forest , where the three demons disappeared behind. For intentions unknown towards their declined entrance, the monk continued to make his futile attempts , seemingly, as to open a way inside to help that of their friends. Shippo gathered the items to make a campfire nearby , as he only assumed by the way things were going, that they may be here for awhile.

~ Meeting Master~

The girl's were centered in another part of the stronghold that for sometime remembered served as their home, when the one dressed in red silk hurriedly walked into the other's presence , sitting close to another bernette with caramel eyes. With a smile she had looked over and was greeted by a smile in return, as the girl regained her breath from the shock of seeing one that gave her the feeling that wasn't much liked.

Although by the time , the girl had to muse, a loud booming voice greeted them, making her jump from her seat, and it was very fortunate that she hadn't fallen off of it. Looking up to find the one whom carried such a voice, and the moment that crazed blood met that of chocolate, it was felt as though fear emerged within her, as though with her body that refused to do anything but move, but her skin attempted to crawl away from herself . It was a familiar feeling,the sort of fear , and anger felt at the time by the girl , but the memories , as to tell why it was so , avoid her recollections somehow.

' What is it about the man that I fear, and despise of him? Why is it I can't remember, when I know I have felt it before.. Hmmm, Strange.'

It was when his eyes found hers again while the woman upon seeing it was caught in a most carnal daze carrying malicious a flicker of something that had temporarily shaken her before fading away completely, it was within her very soul that was warning her to stay away from the newcomer that stood in their midst's. Although it was still unknown , as to why. Adverting her direction of sight when the course feeling of spiders crawling upon her was growing exponentially , as time passed carried continued contact with the man in black and mad red eyes.

A nervous tapping on her shoulder, swayed her attention for the moment towards that of her companion with caramel eyes, and as it seemed with the look held within her frightened eyes,confirming that she felt it too.
