The next morning Mistine woke up and saw that she was still in Reinyx's arms. She saw that Reinyx was still sleeping then she smiled at her and leaned a little closer to touch her cheek. Before her hand could touch her cheek Reinyx opened her eyes and looked at Mistine then smiled.

"I see you're awake."

"Good morning."

Reinyx let her go and stood up.

"Let's go get you something to eat."

"Okay."

They both went to the woods and began to look for food.

(Elsewhere...)

Sitri was leading the others as they were searching for Reinyx and Mistine. They were up half the night but they weren't getting anywhere. As they were searching the air Mira looked ahead.

"Who was Neonda?"

Halphas glanced at Mira then looked back ahead.

"Neonda isn't her real name. She was from the Shadow tribe of the Demon world. Reinyx and Noenda were like sisters."

Levy looked at her.

"What happened to her?"

Halphas had her head down while Satan Soul closed her eyes.

"Our father, King Crimsunil ordered Neonda to come to the human world. The three of us were told to make sure that Reinyx musn't know about Neonda leaving so we were keeping an eye on her. Even though it has been many years I still regret doing such a thing."

Lucy lowered her head.

"What kind of mission was Neonda given for her to come here?"

They all came to stop and Sitri looked at Lucy.

"She was tricked to come here. Our father had her to come here to find a type of Take Over magic but we were not aware that there was a town's worth of demon hunters where she was and we never heard from her again after that."

Mira, Lucy and Levy were in shock. They couldn't believe what they were hearing. Lucy understood why Reinyx was angry with her sisters and Mira felt sorry for the demon family. They kept walking to search for Mistine.

(In the dark edge of the woods)

There was a female demon that was sitting in her throne chair. She had her head resting on her hand and was smiling at a thought that was going through her head.

"It is time."

She stood up and began to head to the woods of her land.

(Middle woods)

Mistine was walking through looking for Reinyx. She figured that Reinyx would be in one of the trees looking for food. She stopped when she saw Satan Soul coming to her.

"It's you."

"Yes, you are coming with me."

"I'm not going with you."

Satan Soul went to Mistine and picked her up. Mistine was squirming to break free but she wasn't having any luck.

"Let me go!"

"Don't worry, just be a good girl and I will return you to Reinyx."

Satan Soul flew into the air with a squirming Mistine in her arms. They soon met up with the others. Mistine ran to Mira because she was afraid of her demon forms then Sitri looked at Mistine. She noticed how Mistine looked just like a child version of Mira.

"Mistine, how long have you known Reinyx?"

"Since I was young child. We met at the fog part of the west wood."

Halphas looked at Mistine.

"When you met did Reinyx harm you in any way?"

Mistine thought back then shook her head.

"No she didn't. She would simply try to scare me away but I kept returning to her then one day she allowed me to follow her. Since then we have always been together."

Satan Soul frowned. She felt there was more to the story than what Mistine had told them.

"Was Reinyx who taught you Shadow Soul Take Over?"

Mistine lowered her head.

"My Shadow Soul Take Over was naturally inside of me since I was an infant. I never knew how to control it but when I met Reinyx she helped me to at least keep it from going crazy as if I were trying to seal it. From time to time she would test me to see how I was doing with it."

"Since when was Reinyx a parent and a teacher?"

Mistine frowned at Sitri.

"Don't make fun of her!"

Satan Soul raised a brow.

"Why now? As far as I know Reinyx doesn't teach anyone, nor does she want family to be part of her vocabulary."

Mistine looked like she was about to cry.

"She taught me all sorts of stuff. She was always there for me!"

With that Mistine took off running while crying. Sitri and Halphas gave Satan Soul large death making her telling them in a nervous way that she was only playing with Mistine.

(In the Trees of the woods.)

Reinyx was looking for Mistine. She had found something that Mistine loved a whole lot which were honey combs. Reinyx was wondering where Mistine was but then her search stopped when she saw her sisters coming to her.

"What do you want?"

"If you're looking for Mistine, she just took off crying."

"What for?"

Satan Soul rubbed the back of her head nervously while Reinyx just looked at her.

"I was teasing her."

Halphas looked at Reinyx keeping a calm look on her face.

"That's not the only thing, we also want to know why do you care for Mistine so much?"

Reinyx glared at her.

"That's my business, so go away."

Reinyx turned to leave but stopped in her tracks and sniffed the air.

"There is another demon here in the woods."

"I sense them as well but where are they?"

"We better get to a safer place."

"I have to find Mistine."

Satan Soul looked at her.

"She's nowhere to be found in this place. For some reason when she took off running she had her Shadow Soul magic to spread for us to lose her scent."

Reinyx just looked at her in shock.

"You have got to be kidding me."

"We're not."

Reinyx jumped into the air with them going after her as she began to search for Mistine.

(Dark wood)

Mistine was sitting at a tree. She soon sensed that someone was coming then looked up expecting it to be Reinyx but blinked in surprise when she saw a new demon woman. This demon looked just like Halphas but instead of blue she wore black and had a dark purple collar with dark purple horns. Her eyes were the same purple color and she smiled at Mistine and went to her.

"What is a human girl like you doing alone out here?"

"I just ran through the woods and got lost."

"Is that so?"

Mistine nodded then the demon grabbed her head and kissed her forehead. Mistine looked up at her.

"Ms. Demon, who are you?"

"Just call me Zodara."

Mistine nodded but then she felt tired all of sudden and fell into Zodara's arms. Zodara stood up while holding Mistine in her arms then she smiled looking at Mistine.

"Sleep well, Mistine."

Zodara left back to her lair with Mistine sleeping in her arms.

AN: This chapter was a little hard but I hope you like where this is going. I will have more time to write this fanfic so I'll be updating more of this story. Leave any comments or questions that may come to mind, and take care.
