Back to ze past

"Really?" said Takeo picking himself up off the ground
"Cause I really don't see how I could have any cause to endure another moment of your frightful company!"

Kaoru shook his head
"I'm going after him. Hotaru, I'm sorry about everything."

Mori growled as he hauled himself up. "At least just get it over with, stop blabbing on about it!" He snarled.

Hotaru nodded. "Alright."

Hikaru grinned evily,
drawing a short sword from her belt and held it above the eye patch on his left eye
"A fine idea"

"Mori..." said Takeo "I hate you..."

Kaoru sprinted off into the trees shifting into fox form so as to track Amaterasu better

Mori snorted and leaped forwards, shoving Hikaru back. "No killing." He touched the back of his hand to his head. "And you can cut that out too."

"No deal!" Mori recevied a roundhouse kick to the face "And don't tell me who i can and cannot kill, bitch."

Mori turned away from the kick and lashed out, sending the knife flying. "Shut it would you?" He scowled. "Takeo, would you get a move on? I can't use those things."

"Yeah Yeah, your not the only one gettin' knocked around y'know"
he hurled another sutra at Hikaru...

...which she dodged
"Wha? Son of a-!" bish! Takeo was sent flying

"Missed me!" Hikaru laughed and proceeded to beat Takeo senceless

"Get the hell off of him!" mori yelled angrily, managing to get between them both and catch a punch thrown by Hikaru. He twisted her arm around her back and swore. "Takeo!"

"I'm goin' I'm goin'!" Takeo took aim with another sutra

Hikaru laughed manicly and set Mori's tail on fire

Mori gave an animalistic howl and kicked Hikaru back into the wall behind her before shooting up into the closest tree.

Hikaru laughed with glee until Takeo's sutra connected with her skull
when her laughter turned to screams

Takeo winced "Hika's gonna kill me"

Mori dropped back down next to Takeo, looking utterly frazzled. "]She'll be angry?!" He snorrted.

-----

"Kurgi? Kur~gi?! Kuuuurgiii~" Taro prodded the demon in the middle of his back, trying to get his attention. "Kur-" And then there was silence.

"Have you seen Hika when she's mad?! Makes this beastie look like a lil kitten!"
Said Takeo testing his twisted ankle

"Believe me, first hand knowledge." He said with a scowl.
"Mori-pu, Takeo-chan!" Taro beamed and wove at them. "My turn!" Mori blinked a few times before swearing. "Oh, hell no."

-------

Shade stood up, setting down the bottle of sake he'd swiped from Mori's stash and heading to the door - it was the demon's fault for being away for so long. Rin smiled pleasantly at him. "Morning! Is Elizabeth in?"
"No, sorry." He nodded.
"Shame..." She traced a line on the door. "Are the kids in?" Shade rose an eyebrow. "They're out with her, aren't they?" She smiled. "Can I come in?"

Takeo smiled slightly
"Don't think about it Mori, just fight it. You can't let your emotions cloud your judgement."
he sighed
"Here we go again..."
he lashed out at Taro with his short blades

Evelyn splashed her brother

Mori yelled as Takeo moved forwards and Taro didn't move. in fact, he stood still hands loose by his sides and grinning. Mori bowled Takeo out of the way. "You're not goint to even think about using those things!" He snapped. "They haven't helped so far!" He spun back around and realized that taro was no longer in front of him. He turned a circle and saw Taro crouched on the floor, smile turning to a snarl as his eyes shifted from their blue and green to red. That wasn't good.

"Don't be an Ass Mori! You don't know what this thing can do!
Its NOT Taro! And if you keep acting like this then your going to get us KILLED!"

"I don't think that-"
"Shh..." She smiled and moved closer to him, a small smirk playing over her features. She rose a finger to touch his lips and tilted her head. "It's just us." Shade shook his head and stepped back.
"You really should go. Now." He said and looked her over. She shook her head, her dark hair falling around her waist. "That's just rude." She laughed and stepped inside, pushing him back. She shut the door behind her. "There's nothing wrong with a little fun here and there. This," She traced her finger along his jawbone. "Is fun."

But if you hurt that thing taro will be hurt! We don't have to hurt them!" He snapped, backing up as Taro stalked forwards, eyes locked on Takeo.

Takeo was really mad now,
"Don't be a FOOL! If you are INCAPABLE of fighting to save your own DAMN SKIN let alone his!
Then get THE HELL OUT OF THE WAY SO I CAN DO IT FOR YOU!"
he glanced at the advancing blonde
"And hurry up"

Mori contemptuously stepped forwards, only managing to look up when the vampire shot past him, slashing his suddenly razor sharp claws out along Takeo's chest.

Takeo cryed out and attempted to throw him off
