~First Person~
I wasnt in the mood atleast today to be bothered by my half brothers daughter or own son. I blinked a few times watching the two pups who were sitting either on my fluff cloak or head laughing madly and looking for things to chew on. I was exhausted not seeing Luna around or anyone of late not even my ignorant brother Sesshomaru."Niiru daddy doesnt NEED YOU BITING HIS EAR." I watched as my three month old pup blinked at me and merely went back to chewing on my ear. I wasnt irritated with Harumi who was looking around as if she saw something hopefully nothing too bad.
I stopped at the nearby Inn taking a seat i ordered two cups of warm milk for the pups while i drunk a glass or two of sake. I raised my head every few minutes starring down the humans or half demons with my cold emotionless orange eyes. I had been told i resembled my father Inutaisho that was one thing i didnt wish to become dying in a fire or anything like that. I placed my head on the table breathing in deeply as Niiru and Harumi began pulling on my long ponytail after a moment i snarled at them.

Fei and Wen were hungry again, as evidenced by their rumbling stomachs. They looked at Ryuu pleadingly, hoping to get permission to eat. Ryuu sighed, then nodded as he felt the start of slight rumblings in his stomach as well. Then Ryuu's head perked up as he smelled something familiar: an inn.
"Looks like you get your wish guys. Just disguise yourselves and we can enter an inn to eat." The duo's eyes glinted as they morphed themselves into human-looking demons.
Fei looked like a fifteen year old human, except with short spiky black hair with jagged white streaks coursing through them, pointed ears and slitted gold eyes. He wore a red gi top with black hakama pants, and his hands were bandaged to hide the fact that they were clawed. His tail was wrapped around his midsection like a sash.
Wen also looked fifteen, had stark white hair with a black streak running in the middle, and he had bright emerald slitted eyes. He was in a blue haori, with simple sandals, and the same bandages on his hands. His tail, which was also stark white, was wrapped around his waist like a belt.
Since Ryuu was in his Japanese clothes already, he just waited for them to finish their metamorphosis. When they were done, he inclined his head in the direction of the inn, and then they walked the way there. When they got the inn, the smell of food was making Wen salivate, and Fei just barely managed to restrain himself. Ryuu simply looked at them in amusement, and then he bade for them to enter in Chinese. They all went inside, and took a seat. But as Ryuu passed by, he caught the scent of a powerful demon, and he turned his head in that direction. He saw that a white haired man was talking to the kids on his head, and that the he was the source of the smell.
Ryuu simply decided to observe their movements, even as a waitress approached him and his familiars in disguise.

I turned my head slowly as the three new guests entered inside of the Inn after a moment of observing them closely i sat Harumi and Niiru behind me making sure they would be safe. I got a pleading look from the old Inn keeper we had been friends since Niiru had been born and this was the same Inn where i had killed several demons and ruined the old women's business. I removed the sword from the sheath on my side it instantly pulsed and grew in size becoming as big as my brother Inuyasha's tetsiuga.
I went to step forward but stopped to see Niiru tugging on the sleeve of my leg and looking up at me with his crimson eyes. I merely glared before watching Ryuu with an emotionless glare.
"Lord Tashamaru withdraw your Gore blade this once!" The Elder Innkeeper begged me...
"My Apologies." I gave Ryuu a bow of my head before placing my sword away and sitting down once more.

Ryuu's eyebrow rose slightly as he saw the demon stare back at him with an emotionless stare, but it turned into an outright curious stare as he saw the demon draw his sword after making sure that the young ones were safe. Hm... it must be some sort of pack demon... maybe a cat, dog, or wolf. Otherwise demons usually do not care for young pups.
His familiars hissed angrily at the infidel who dared threaten their master and interrupt their meal. They prepared to attack, when Ryuu saw the old woman begging the demon, Tashamaru apparently, to stop. Ryuu gave his transformed familiars a cold stare, and they backed down with a wince, but not before glaring at the demon.
Ryuu sighed as he saw this, but made no move to correct it. Then he heard the demon apologize, an even more curious thing. He must be a demon lord to retain control of his emotions like that.... This just became very interesting.
Ryuu then replied: "No problem, no harm done. Now if you excuse us, we were going to order a meal now." When he said that, he bowed a bit to Tashamaru and went to the counter to order food.
His familiars were left on the table, and both of them were still glaring at Tashamaru, but they made no move to attack him, so Ryuu let the glares slide.

I was glad the demon was not angered with me but his two companions seemed to be glaring which was one thing i didnt like but i probably deserved. I walked over to the counter listening as Ryuu ordered the meals after a moment i motioned for the Inn keeper as she apparoached i merely smiled."Give my friends here a feast they will never forget." I watched as she merely smiled and went to bringing the food to Ryuu's table.
I sat down myself holding Niiru in my arms for the time i merely smiled down toward my pup with a sadened expression."You sure are one of a kind my son." I watched as he smiled and began to giggle in a cute way.
I glanced toward Ryuu and his two friends."Lord Tashamaru of the Inu Clan is my curse." I gave another bow of my head."This is my son Niiru and neice Harumi." I yawned lightly.

Ryuu ordered six slabs of cooked deer meat, some chicken, fish, and rice from the innkeeper. As he ordered, out of the corner of his eye he saw the other demon walk over the counter and wait. Ryuu decided not to mind it as he went back to his seat to wait for his and his companions' meals. While he was walking though, he heard the demon say to give them a... feast. Ryuu's curiosity peeked and wanted to know why, but he decided to remain silent.
As he waited for the food, he watched his companions, who were still glaring at the other demon nearby. Ryuu cleared his throat and stared at them pointedly, and then pointed at the lady who was bringing the food. This made Ryuu blink a bit as he realized what he was pointing at. Man their service was fast!
His familiars were drooling in anticipation as they saw and smelled the food. It looked to be almost like the food back in the citadels back in China! They waited until the food was set on the table, and then they thanked the old lady profusely, and began to eat like starved wolves with manners.
Then, as he was starting on his first deer, he heard the demon introduce himself, and his son and niece. Seeing as he did so, it was only courtesy that he introduce himself in turn.
"I am honored to meet you Lord Tashamaru, and your companions as well." Ryuu bowed his head once. "I am Ranryuujin Shen Ling, a high lord of the far away lands of the Chinese Phoenix kingdom, and of the Musk Kingdom. These are my familiars, Fei and Wen." Ryuu points to the black haired demon, and then the white haired demon as he called their names out. The demons nodded their head in affirmation.

"Lord Ranryuujin it is an honor." I gave another bow of my head before sitting down at my seat once more with a catious eye i watched Ryuu's two companions knowing something was up about them and i wasnt the only one for Niiru was blinking toward Wen in a happy way."You three are not human forgive my curiousity but what type of demons are you?'' I merely motioned toward a few demons who sat in the Inn near me stating this was safe haven for humans and demons.
"I Will not be upset if you do not answer for during my Father Inu Nu Taisho's time it was a law in most villages that demons and humans could not be within the same building or area." I closed my eyes thinking about my father as i did my aurora shifted to a darker one.
Niiru seemed to notice because he muttered the word."Ganpa." As i held him close...

Ryuu rose an eyebrow as he heard the other demon's question, as well as the look Niiru had been giving his familiar. Then he looked around as he gestured, and all around, he saw demons, who shuddered and looked away as they saw the markings on his face and saw his soul-piercing blue and silver eyes look at them, judging them coldly and silently. Seeing their reaction Ryuu could not hold back a smirk; he's still got it.
Then Fei cleared his throat and asked him in Chinese:
"Should we tell him Mi'lord?" Ryuu looked at Fei this time in curiosity. It was usually Wen who asked that.... Ryuu looked at Wen and saw that he was pouting slightly at being beaten to the punch by Fei. Ryuu blinked slightly, and then weighed the pros and cons in his mind. After a minute he decided.
Ryuu addressed them in the same language and said:
"You may, but do not tell the what I am as of yet. I still have secrets to keep after all... and he will discover in time."
Fei then switched back to Japanese and finally replied to Tashamaru's question.
"Lord Tashamaru, I am a feline demon familiar, and my friend Wen over there is a canine demon familiar. I am a tiger demon, while he is a wolf demon."

I watched in silence as my son Niiru crawled over and climed into Fei's lap placing his hands ontop of Fei;s own hands he than just watched him with a curious smile before giggling and huggling him.
I took a step forward watching my son with a cautious eye before noticing Harumi was gone and out of the building."Harumi?'' I noticed the inn keeper was gone as well.I withdrew my sword which began pulsing with demonic energy after a moment i rushed from the building my eyes narrowing on small trail of blood that lead into the forest of Inuyasha."HARUMI!?'' I Snarled the words as a deep threatining growl escaped my lungs,I than lunged into the treeline breaking down trees as i went finally coming acrost the body of the infant.
I dropped to one knee holding her small lifeless body in one han d smelling she was dead.I dug my sword into the ground before clutching my neice close holding back tears.
"HARUMI!!!!!!!!"

Fei blinked in surprise as the young dog youkai climbed onto his lap and held his bandaged hands. Then Niiru just looked at him and giggled like a baby. This made Fei actually crack a smile as his tail unwrapped from his wast and he started to bat the baby's nose softly as his tail then poked the baby's hands, urging him to try and catch it.
Wen, who had finished his food and was now wiping his face with a piece of cloth that his master always insisted on, gaped as his eyes threatened to go out of their sockets. Fei, Mr. I am as stoic as master, is playing with a baby! And the richest thing is, he seemed to be enjoying it! This is hilarious!
Wen snickered at Fei, which Fei naturally heard, but all he did was smirk at him and stick out his tongue before he resumed playing with the infant. Wen was even more shocked, and was ready to faint, but he shook his breath as he took deep breaths.
Ryuu watched the interplay at the corner of his eye with a straight face, which turned into curiosity as he noticed the other one, Harumi, was missing. Then his face showed a bit of alarm as Tashamaru went out in a panic. His face turned grim and he faced his familiars.
"Fei, Wen, I want you stay here and guard Niiru, understand?" Fei nodded even as Wen had begun to transform into his true form.
With that, Ryuu went out of the inn, where he caught the scent of two dead corpses... one which was beside a tree, in front of the forest. He ran to that one, and saw that the old Innkeeper lay here, with an expression of horror on her face. At the same time, he heard Tashamaru scream out his niece's name, which made him tense.
Suddenly his eyes widened and he felt a strong energy reeking with malicious intent near the source of the shout... but it was not Tashamaru. He ran as fast as he could.
---
An Oni frowned as he saw Tashamaru go near his target. How was he supposed to bring the body to Naraku-sama if that daiyoukai was there?! He was no match for a daiyoukai... but not with this blade. This blade was blessed by a thousand priestesses over the generations, and it was one of the few things that can kill that bastard daiyoukai, even though it doesn't work on his little brother.
He grinned as his bandaged arm prepared to swing the blade, which had a human arm still holding it. As he swung it however, it was intercepted by a strange demon with tanned skin and spiky silver hair, with two fingers no less!
The Oni scowled as his blade was blocked; now the daiyoukai knew he was here, all because of that stupid demon. "Who the fuck are you?!"
Ryuu smirked coldy and stared into the Oni's eyes with his own bluish silver ones and said: "I am your executioner." And with that he tore the blade out of the Oni's hands and kept it.
The Oni's eyes now widened in fear; this guy was immune to holy magic?! Now he was dead... if the daiyoukai doesn't kill him first.
