"She said it's none of your business Bankotus, And it's not." She said to him then really got a good look at the kid,something about him made her think of Naraku too and he even smelt like him a little, "As much as I hate this I have to agree with Bankotus that kid makes me think of Naraku" she said

"And Naraku used me, he knew i would die, he just needed somebody to stall Inu-Yasha so he could grow his body, dispiciable. That is why i need information from this woman and child, i need a lead on where Naraku is." Bankotsu told Asaim and the woman.
"Now tell me, before i get mad, what is your name and what do u know about Naraku" Bankotsu said to the woman.

She really and truly had tried to keep her temper in check, but the way he spoke had finally gotten to her. He was being far too familiar for her comfort, and the way he spoke of Naraku, well. He definitely didn't sound as though he was a friend of the half-demon. If he was Naraku's enemy, then Asuma was in trouble. She was glad that the boy hadn't spoken in some time, although his silence worried her some.
"Perhaps my power dwindling is just what happens after having been alive for more than five hundred years, boy." She made sure to say the last word coldly, although when she continued to speak, she did so in such a nonchalant way it sounded as though she was talking to an old friend. That is, if it was a friend that she had not spoken to or been remotely friendly with for over a century. She was not about to be polite to this boy, for he knew nothing of her life, or anything else related to her. He had no right to presume as much as he had already done.
"My name, although you have no right to ask, is Yuna. I know nothing of Naraku that would be of any interest to you." |

She told him, "He cant help that he reminds you of someone, and look you problemly got him sacared to death he is not even talking" she said to him looking at the kid

"Interest or not, i need all i can, now tell me..."
Bankotsu turned to the kid, he rested his hand on the boys shoulder.
"Tell me, little child, i ask with alot of doubt, but do you know anything of Naraku"

"Leave us alone! We haven't seen fa-" Asuma was cut off by his mother lunging between him and the mercenary. The priestess glared at the man darkly as she pushed her son a few steps back. She knew she had forgotten to say something to him long ago, when she first told him of his birthright, and now she finally knew what it was. She should have forbidden him to give any mention of his father, no matter what the circumstances were.
"Asuma, be quiet," she muttered through clenched teeth, effectively silencing anything that the boy had planned to say in response to her actions. As she continued to glare at Bankotsu, she took another step away from him. She wished he would just leave them alone, as Asuma had said, but she doubted that he would obey her or the child.
"Don't ever touch my son again. You have no business with us. We don't have anything you want." That only sounded partially suspicious to her own ears, so she hoped that it would sound perfectly normal to the mercenary. If it didn't, they might be in trouble that she really doubted that she could handle alone. Asuma was not nearly far enough in his training to handle demons on his own. If it came to fighting, the most she could hope for would be for her son to escape alive, no matter what the costs. |

'he was gonna say father! Is that Naraku's son' Asaim thought. "Leave them alone Bankotus they said they dont know where he is, I smell him towards the south, go find him" she said giving the pristess a look that said I will try and help.

"Listen, im not going to hurt you, Naraku Betrayed the Band os Seven" Bankotsu said calmly.
"And the only words i know of that start with 'fa" is face and father. I'm sure your son didnt mean face,so hes your father, i assume? If he is or not, im not here to hurt you, all i need is to know where to find him, and thats it, i dont think i shall be a merecenairy after what Naraku did, but that isnt final, but tell me all you know of him, please." Bankotsu said nicly...he ovbiousaly wasnt being truthful about not being a merecenairy, he needed to find Naraku, he'd do anything.

Although she was grateful for what the demon was trying to do, the effort was obviously in vain, for the mercenary ignored her completely. And learning who exactly this mercenary is made it that much clearer to her as to why he was being so persistent. She had been surprised to hear that Naraku had revived the Band of Seven, and not nearly as surprised when he betrayed them. Admittedly, she had been glad when he had and when she had heard that the Band of Seven was all but gone once more.
The rumors had obviously been false, but she still remembered what it had been like for the world when those seven were alive the first time. It had been, in one word, hell. "I do not help murderers. I have heard many things about the Band of Seven, none of them good. However, I do sympathize with you, though I should not."
Running a hand through her long hair she continued, her voice filled with pain. "If you wish to kill Naraku, you are in for a difficult task. He is cold, and cruel, as you very well know. Sometimes I wonder if he even has a heart." At her own words she felt her heart contract painfully in her chest, and tears come to her eyes. Blinking them back she pushed on, ignoring her own pain.
"I do not know much about him. His and my relationship... would not benefit you. I am sorry, but I truly don't know any way for you to get your revenge. I do not even hold any power over him. I never did, and I never will. I am as powerless against him as you are. Asuma even more so." |

"See, was that so difficult. Although, i should have believed you..." Just then a voice cut Bankotsu off.
"Hey, Bankotsu, what are you doing here?" Jakotsu said in a happy voice. "And who is this? another victum?"
"Hey Jakotsu, no, this isn't another victum, i am trying to track down Naraku. Yuna, i thank you for the information, i was lying about maybe not being a merecenairy, but since you tried helping me, you will not die. Farewell...i guess ill be running off somewhere in the mountians, keeping an eye out for Naraku.
Jakotsu looked puzzled "uhh...i guess ill be going, too?" Jakotsu said with a puzzled face.

"Yuna" Bankotsu said, "Search me out if you have any information on the whereabouts of Naraku" And Bankotsu was off. |

"thank god hes gone" Asaim said, then turned to Yuna, "This is Naraku's son is it not? Because he smells very much like him." she said/asked her. "Oh I'm Asaim by the way"

Although at first she said nothing, Yuna had to agree with Asaim completely. She too was glad that the mercenary had left, although she wished he had done so sooner. She was glad though that he had accepted such worthless information about Naraku. She had only given him information that he could find out from talking to almost any demon, but apparently that had been enough.
Maybe he had just been satisfied that she knew nothing to help him. Or maybe it was more. She didn't know, but she wasn't about to question his motives for departing so suddenly. Although... the arrival of his friend worried her. How many more of the Band of Seven were still alive? This was not going to bode well for the world. Even if they somehow did manage to defeat Naraku, something she hoped that would never happen, then what? Would they go back to killing mercilessly? This was not exactly something that she wanted to ponder.
"Thank you... for your assistance... I would not have been able to handle that man had it not been for you." Turning to look at Asaim she bowed her head in respect. This woman, although she was a demon, did not seem to harbor any serious ill-will towards Naraku, so perhaps she could trust her, at least to some extent. "Yes... Asuma is indeed the son of Naraku and myself. Something that I am sure a demon would have a hard time believing. After all.... why would Naraku have a child with a human?" |

There was another demon walking, a bat demon named TokiJiba, he is only half demon, he was only able to walk in mt hakurei because he was in his human forum. He approached the two girls who were conversing.
"Hello, can you help me out, either one of you?" Asked TokeJiba

Suddenly, Tsuzuki realized she had more company-- a lot more.
She crept ever closer, hiding just far enough away to hear everything that was being said.
"Hm. Look at that Yuki-- this seems to be quite the popular spot."
She laughed, but kept her voice down. The others seemed too engrossed in their conversation anyway. From the scent, it was a mix of humans and demons. Then she head what she was listening for-- Naraku.
Well, it seems the rumor about Naraku and the darkness demon are not true... This one is a human
She chuckled mentally
Eichi-San may be interested in hearing this...Naraku's child? Ha, where's Amoi when you need her!
Maybe this information would get her on good terms with her 'alley'. If she didn't already know this. Anything to get Amoi to trust her... Makes deception so much easier.
Five Hundred years though??? Is she human or half demon?
She watched as another human appeared, then both left. Then a half demon-- bat, by the smell. She decided it was time for her 'grand entrance'.
Tsuzuki stood up at full hight and started a fast paced walk over to the springs. She was followed a an icy-cold breeze-- mostly of effect, as the barrier was really taking a toll on her powers.
"Hello, and what do we have here?"
She gave her trademark grin. Yuki followed and sat by her feet.
"Aw, what a cute little boy."
