nice nap /open/

[~Yuki~]

Yuki layed on a soft patch of grass. A nice, softly, dry patch of grass. Hm...sleep, one of her favorite pass by's. She could sleep all the day through, not even dreaming of anything, and she'd enjoy it. She just like the peacefulness of it. It gave her a break from whatever the hell she was doing before, which could be anything really. She tossed and turned on the grass. Personally, it wasn't soft enough.

She streched out as she got up, a small yawn escaping her lips. She looked around at the forest around here. When did I get here...? she thought to herself. Then she remembered. She was being chased by a kitsune that had gotten through her illusions (which had taken it a long time) and decided to chase her. She ran for gods know how long, but she escaped and then fell asleep.

She looked down at her dress. There was a rip in the side. Stupid dress... she thought to herself. She brushed her hand against the tear and it instantly fixed itself. She sighed. Maybe she just needed a new dress...no, she liked this one.

She hummed to herself as she began to walk through the slightly dense forest.

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Akio sigh, her icy blue eyes search the area for any sight of animal. It had been a couple of days since she's actually eaten anything, and her hunger has grown since then. Sniffing the air for the smell of the deer once more, she quickly crouches to the ground; holding her glaive behind her back as she sways side to side. Her pale blue lips part to show long fangs and a pink tongue; a deep growl filting into the air. The smell of the deer causing her hunger to grow, and her patience to dwindle.

Taking quick small steps, Akio makes her way towards the deer-being sure to keep below the bushes. Parting the bushes to the side, she peeks to see the deer grazing in small plain in the forest. It's brown muzzle grazing at the green grass, it's eyes closed and it's ears perked for any hunters. Placing her glaive low to the ground, Akio takes a few more small quite steps before raising the glaive parallel to the ground. Narrowing her eyes, and pulling the glaive back she gets ready for the kill.

Seeing a flicker to her left, she whips her head to find a kistune pouncing on the deer. Gnashing her teeth at finding another demon eating her prey, she quickly looks up towards the sky to find puffs of cloufs overhead. Restraining her features of disdain, she looks at the kitsune to find him busy eating the deer.

Feeling cheated out of her food, she raises up to her full heigth and flick Toushi, her glaive. In an instant a light blue light surrounds it as it disappears to leave two blue braclets attached to her arms. Seeing that she has the kitsune's attention, she blankly stares in his wild ferial eyes.

"Heaven's Ice" She says quietly. With a large whistling sound penetrating the once quiet forest, a foot long ice gleams down towards the kitsune, causing it to look up and opens its mouth in a cry of surprise. The ice spear falls down its throat, blood splattering around the area from the injury. It lies there with its body struggling to unlodge the ice spear as Akio steps forward. Looking down at it she kneels down as she places her hand on its neck. The touch instantly causing the kitsune to freeze.

Getting back up, she pushes back her blue strands of hair from her shoulder. Sighing once more as she walks away still hungry. Even after the kitsune eating the deer, she had too much pride to eat after him. No matter how hungry she is.

"Food...." She says quietly with disdain.

[Neko]

Neko was going around the forest sniffing all the new scents. She climbed in to trees to look further then she used to. As she slide down the tree she was just in, she didn't forget to put her nails in to the trunk. She loved sharpening her nails on a trunk, the touch under her hands and nails was just priceless.

Her ears aroused by the hearing of the hearing the leaves rustle behind her. She turned around as she moved her black ears side to side to hear where the sound was coming from.

Quickly she ran up a tree and then tried to fixate on thoughts going around the forest. She didn't get any from Kunashi and inside she sighed in relief, but still she was careful. She didn't know what else was lurking in these woods.

[~Yuki~]

As Yuki progressed through the forest, she willed little flames to dance around her. True, the flames wern't real. Heck, she couldn't summon real flames even if she wanted to. Illusions. That was her thing. But, it wasn't like just anyone could tell what was true and what wasn't.

The flames here were only ment to make her journey safer. Some demons couldn't bear the sight of fire, and that's what she was hoping on. The flames she created didn't even give off heat so they'd be no real use to her if some thing did try to attack her.

Her best chance of surviving would be to trap them in a genjustu of some kind to occupy them while she escaped, or found something to kill them with.

Then, she felt it. The presense of one...no, two creatures lurking in the woods with her. She let the imaginary flames grow and multiply as she looked around, trying to see who was around her.

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Akio stops abdruptly to turn her head to the left of her. The presence of a demon being to her left, then turning it behind her to find another demon there. They weren't near or threatening her, by any means, but that doesn't mean she would underestimate them. She had learned previously that would not be a wise choice in the matter. Would she bother them, or perhaps just walk away to find her food.

Sniffing the air her a frown comes to her usual blank face. Another deer is close, good news, it's behind one of the demons, bad news. Hearing the sound of her own growling stomach, Akio places her hand on her stomach, made up that she is going to go towards the deer regardless.

Pushing her right foot from the ground, she rushes off towards the deer. Dodging several trees in her fast run, only to skid to a stop to look at the fire envoloping the demon. Taking a deep breath she exhales a puff of cold air. Staring at the demon with a transfixed look. What will the demon do?

[都Tsuzuki筑]

[/I] fault. Damn stupid men. Not a single one with any self control. And when he couldn't control himself, there was no way in all the hells that she could be expected to behave.

Tsuki needed a real distraction. Badly. Something to help her forget....

The scent of youkai reached her almost before Tsuzuki sensed the youki itself. It wasn't a deffinate scent though, or at least not one she ever smelled before. It was confused, and while not exactly hanyou it smelled... Hybred.

A slow smirk cracked across Tzuki's face, and she changed her direction slightly to intercept the demoness.

Just like old times-- wandering around aimlesses, using the search for jewel shards as an excuse to pick fights... And while she had acess to the shards now, she always did love to stir up a little trouble....

[Neko]

Neko looked down from the tree she was at and saw the demon under her. Flames emitting around her. It wasn't long for her to find out it was an illusion. She was getting clear thoughts from the demon.

Suddenly she felt the presence of another demon close by. She looked up and she immediately caught her mentally too. The demon was waiting on what was going to happen, but also smelled deer. She held her nose in the air and sniffed around a bit. Then she caught on to the deer smell. The demon was hungry and wanted to hunt the deer.

She looked back down to the other demon and tried to see what this demon was thinking. She seem to concentrating and hoping her little trick. Neko decided to play along.

She slid down the tree as her nails made a trail on the trunk. She kept her eyes on the flaming demon. She then started to walk around as if she was trying to avoid the flames and she followed them with her eyes like a cat would. She kept walking around like that, till she stopped and leaned against the tree she just came out of.

"Why don't you put the flames down and we talk like normal people do? I mean no harm, nor do I have the intention too." She crossed her arms as she kept leaning against the tree.

[~Yuki~]

Yuki watched as a demon jumped past her, blue hair flowing behind her. At least the female yokai wasn't coming at her, and that's all she cared about. She kept walking until a small cat girl walked up to her, passing by her flames.

Yuki frowned slightly and listened to what the girl had to say, but didn't really hear what the girl was saying. All she could do was feel the sickening sense of the hanyou. It made her nausious. Maybe she should have stayed asleep a bit longer. Or maybe she was just asleep, she hoped.

Then she heard something about putting out her flames. Yuki sighed and let the flames disapper one by one. Her illusions were no use to those that could she the falsehood in them.

"Alright, the flames are out" Yuki said, crossing her arms and looking at the hanyou. "What do you want to talk about, hanyou?" she asked with a tint of agitation in her voice.

Again, the presense of this girl made her want to puke, but it wasn't because she hated hanyou. No, this was her first time seeing a hanyou. It was just the girl's presense made her feel sick. Maybe she should just stay away from hanyous all together.

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Akio stands only two feet away from the two demons, and yet as always is ignored. Perhaps it was because she never said much, and didn't do much to get noticed, but she had gotten use to it over her life time. Blankly looking at the two, her eyes flicker towards the flames dancing around the hybrid. Half fire demon and...butterfly demon? Hmmm...yes.

"Why don't you put the flames down and we talk like normal people do? I mean no harm, nor do I have the intention too."

Aki keeps herself from nodding her head in agreement. As an ice panther, and her element being ice, she had a very disdain feeling for fire. Though this fire that surrounds this demon didn't quite fit like the others. She didn't feel the slightest of the heat, and well she knows fire than anyone.

Illusions. The fire is fake, meaning that what I see might not be true.

[/color]

"Hmmm...." Akio says quietly, mostly to herself. Her eyes staring right at Yuki, not even caring if the staring is creeping the hybrid out. Looking away once done with the analyzing, she looks straight at Neko. Her nose scrunching at the smell of the hanyou. She doesn't have anything against hanyous, she's never really cared for the lot of them. Though their presence is always so unsettling. The clashing of the human and demon inside of them mostly made a lot of demons go mad. One of the reason they're hated.

"You smell like fish." Akio says monotony. Her icy blues staring at the hanyou unblinking. She had forgotten about the deer, but she was still hungry regardless. She had heard that hanyous were delcious. Perhaps she's hungry enough to try.

[Neko]

Neko smirked at Yuki's remark. "Well, at least you know what I am." She then looked up to the other demon. She shivered. The thoughts of the demons came to her. She turned her head to the ice panther. She opened her mouth as she looked at the demon. "Why don't you go hunt for deers?" She said trying to not make it sound too snappy.

"I'm Neko, and you two don't scare me the least, I had worse." She looked from one demon to the other. "That's right, I am a cat demon, and yes, one half of me is human, but don't underestimate me."

Neko swiffled her ears as she hears something. She looks around. She then looks at the two demons looking at her. "I would love to talk to you, but it seems I have to go again." And silently she cursed.

She sensed Kunashi, and he was gaining on her. She was really in no mood in coming in conflict with him now. But she wasn't sure if the two demons would let her go.

[~Yuki~]

Yuki sighed. She didn't intend to be seen as scary or intimdating, she just wanted a nice place to sleep really. When the hanyou girl said it was time for her to leave, Yuki didn't mind it one bit. Accaully, she felt like pucking now. The feeling of being around this girl too long just felt too sickening.

"Fine" Yuki said. "Go on; I'm not stopping you." She turned towards the blue girl. "And I'm sure she has no intrest in you either" she said in a matter-of-factly kind of way as she held her head high. She didn't mind the two, and they didn't mind her, so she best be off now.

She tooked down at the blue girl. She felt like something...cold. Water? Ice? Not like she cared. As long as she had the scent of a fire demon she was pretty good for the moment. Then again, she also smelled like a halfer with the weakling of the butterfly yokai. At least Yuki didn't have the weak body of a butterfly demon, but too bad she didn't have the powers of the fire demon. Maybe she was just a late bloomer; you could never tell, she was probably the first of what she was. Her fire powers could possible come in the next hundred years, she could never know, but she still hoped a spark would come.

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Scare. Intimidate. Fear. Akio wasn't quite sure why they're talking about that, like they're trying to prove that they aren't scared or anything. As far as Akio is aware of, she's not even trying to do those kind of things. Some people just think of her natural existance slightly frightening. Probably because she stares a lot. That could be it.

Really, it annoyed Akio when people tried to be big and bad all the time. Trying to prove a point that they're worthy enough to be recognized. Then they turn out be a bunch of pansies.

Stupid pansies.

Getting the idea that they just want her to leave, she walks past Neko-her blue hair twirling behind her. Then she stops only to see a certain wold demon. What was her name. Um...Mizuki? nope. Palla? no....Tiki mono hana mocho kupich? ...not likely.

Oh well, it's not like her forgeting the demoness's name is the end of the world. Seeing the wold demoness stand there with a smirk on her face, Akio merely blinks before brushing past her.

[/size]

[Neko]

Neko felt the cold wind go past her and she shivered a little. The blue haired demon was as cold as ice and her hair was showing it. She stopped and stared at the new demon, that had entered the scene.

Neko turned around as she had already had felt her presence. Something in this new demon felt familiar. She stepped a few steps in the direction of the dog demon. A smile came on her face as she said, "Tsuzuki."

Her eyes glister as she said that. In a grey memory she remembered she saved Okami from Tsuzuki. She licked her dry lips like only a cat could. "How is your pup doing?" She said with a little hatred in her voice. She never liked dog demons, they always smell, she could smell a dog demon from miles away, she was surprised she hadn't smelled Tsuzuki earlier.

And better yet, a new encounter with this demon was the last thing she needed right now. She looked to Tsuzki's face and squeezed her eyes a little as she tried sense in what kind of mood she was and how she would react to meeting Neko again.
