Terre de Brume
Asuna had returned to the present as the ekimmu had requested and she was now in Sapporo in the home of her snow inu. Chang's library was well stocked and amazing with ancient tomes and books filled with legends of the very long ago past. Her former chief magistrate and mate was busy reading on his laptop and she looked up at him.
“How do you feel?” He asked softly without looking.
“I am in awe that I saw one Chang. He seemed so surprised to be seen as well you know?” She commented.
“I cannot imagine truly. Honestly what you are boggles my simple inu brain.” He smiled.
Asuna saw his incredibly beautiful smile and she stood up. She set aside the books she was reading and moved over to him. He watched her and she had a predatory look in her eyes. Her hands threaded through his white hair and he groaned softly as her lips met his. It was erotically beautiful and their passionate embrace became suddenly wild. She was growling and moaning as she fell back against the desk. The laptop went skidding onto the bamboo floor and Asuna was tearing at Chang's clothe to get to him. He too was in his own inu mind and he tore at her silk gown. He could not remember kissing her like this before or tasting her like this. She managed to port them to the bed and she pulled away from him. He growled low in his throat and then groaned softly when she presented herself to him. He shut his red eyes and his inner beast was going wild. It became exquisitely intense as their bodies became drenched with salty perspiration and they both moaned in their instinctual tongue. Asuna's claws tore at the expensive cotton sateen bed sheets and she lowered her head and cried out. She reached euphoria and she begged him to join her. His lengthened claws sank into her hips and he gasped as beauty blinded him. He leaned over her body and sank his fangs into her juncture and she screamed out for him again. They collapsed on the bed and he was shaking as waves of perfection consumed him. He had no care except the feel of his beloved onna whom he could not remember not loving. He passed into blissful sleep.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////
She was awoken by soft brushes on her foot and she startled awake. She saw the semi-translucent form of Ruval and she sat up. She covered herself with the bed sheet and he seemed a little surprised.
-Is it a bad time? - He pathed softly.
-I am not decent is all? If you give me a few minutes then I shall join you in the other room. - She thought back.
-I am sincerely sorry. I shall await you. - He said as he just faded away.
She jumped up quietly and threw on a robe and she went into the library. She saw him and his midnight black hair was loosely plaited and she neared his barely there form.
-You found me. - She smiled in his mind.
-Yes. - He thought to her.
-I am honored that I was able to see you at all. Do you have any idea how it is possible? - She asked.
-I am unsure but I assure you that it is not unwelcome. - He thought with a warm smile.
He reached out his hand and the ghostly caress brushed her cheek. She gasped softly as the chill sent goose bumps over her flesh.
-You are lovely to gaze upon. - Ruval murmured with a soft thought.
-Again I am honored you think so. - She pathed as she blushed.
-The others do not believe that an infant can see me. - He said in her mind.
-I find myself a little put off by the idea of being called an infant even though I am sure you are beyond ancient- Asuna pathed
-Yes. It has been a very long time since I was able to be seen or touch for that matter. - He said almost sadly.
-You cannot touch? - Asuna thought shocked.
-My plane is Terre de Brume.” Ruval said in her mind.
-Land of Mist?” She thought surprised.
-Yes. Perhaps I should go. I disturbed you. Would you mind if from time to time I came to you just to talk? - He pathed with a very soft caress.
-You leave already? - She pathed in distress.
-I can stay a little while yes. You truly are so very lovely. - He observed as his deep blue eyes watched hers.
-I wish you could feel more then a mere brush of skin. - Asuna thought as she traced his lips.
His eyes seemed to reflect something deeper but he held his composure. He gave her another sad smile and they talked with their minds for most of the night. Close to dawn she had fallen asleep on the couch and he looked down at the infant ekimmu woman. Sadness touched his old heart and he faded as the first light broke through the windows. She slept on till she woke up and her head was spinning. She opened her eyes and it made her sick.
“Chang!” she groaned in agony.
She bolted upright to try and run to a bathroom but she ended vomiting terribly. Changming ran into the library and he was assaulted by the smell of bile and something far sweeter to his senses. He gasped as he held her. She was coughing up badly and his gold eyes closed for a moment.
“Asuna. Mistress. My lady.” He whispered gently.
“Bathroom please.” She said retching.
“Hai. I will clean this up momentarily.” He said soothingly.
“I am pupped?” She asked astounded.
“Hai.” Chang murmured as he lowered her to the lavish tub.
Her golden brown eyes were wide but she could not be upset. The look of astoundment and happiness on his face made it worth it. Making Chang happy made her happy. She knew she would have to sit on the sidelines for now and direct traffic so to speak but she would do it because it would be for him. She had not even told Sebastein but she would have to soon. She ended up sick again and Chang was there to help her.

She was amongst her throng of young pups and she was reclining on a chaise lounge in her Tokyo living room. Haruya came over and climbed up into her lap and kissed her lips and hugged her neck. She kissed his silvery-blue head and he giggled. Grimmjow had been terribly distracted as of late and she had not seen him. She ached for him but she truly was too busy to deal with the Aizen-Soul Society mess. The tr'Awnhi were quiet but Asuna knew without a doubt they were regrouping. She was certain that they would do so in all eras as well. She was reading a letter from her wraith husband and Lei was whining. He had written how much he missed her but he did say that he was adoring getting to know his true sister. He wrote that he could never repay her for her deeds and he would spend the rest of his life proving how much he loved her. She smiled and then frowned when she read that Yhea had left. She suppressed a vicious sigh at the younger brother but she had no control. Ayana and Mizuki were having issues as well and Karu had been separated from her eldest daughter for over a year. She did not foresee him reuniting with her and it made her sad. Ayana was torn between a powerful love she felt for Lord Chikara and Prince Hatham. Ayana had become so conflicted that it was tearing her apart. Mizuki was in love with Soren and it was good between them it seemed but she had never told the hanyou Shouten that she had lost his child. Asuna could see it haunted her. Hibari was still trying to figure out how to save Naraku's detachment Byakuya. She sighed softly and she kissed Haruya again.
“Where my Chichi?” He asked.
“He is fighting but he misses you so much.” She smiled.
“Okay.” He smiled back.
He got down and he went to Hinata. It awed her that the two were so close and their sires would kill each other. She closed her eyes a moment and mentally went through all that was going on. Amedeo was gone at the moment looking for any basilisks that may still be alive. He had to drag Gabrielus away from Wen; it seemed he loved her passionately. It also seemed that Wenling was horribly jealous. Adrastus and Etsuko were happy together and they more often then not could be found on the roof reading or sunning together. Asuna smiled at the thought and Yuzuna had given birth to a healthy inu boy whom she had named Uzuru. Her father adored the tiny boy immensely and her mother had recently woken up. Things at the moment were peaceful on most fronts and she reveled in the short break. Ayana and Mizuki came in and they acknowledged their baby siblings and they sat across from their mother.
“About time you showed.” Asuna remarked.
“Haha we have lives you know.” Mizuki said softly.
“Have you spoken with Karu?” she asked.
“No. We are done Haha. It is over and I am sorry to say it Ayana.” Mizuki said and she looked away.
“You have to try and be happy Zuki.” Ayana stated dully.
She watched them both and she sighed. It was heart wrenching for her to see them so sad and for them to deny who and what they were. The only one of her children not doing it was Nanami and she seemed to be embracing it. Mizuki suddenly got up and left and Ayana looked away.
“Yana listen to me.” Asuna said leaning forward.
“I am not you.” She said standing too.
She was shocked by their vehemence and she was left with her young children. Asuna fought back the urge to fight with her older children and she had to let them live, it just tore her up to see it.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Mizuki had gone to the office and she still dealt with Karu distantly. They still shared children and a company. She was reading email and there was a knock on her door.
“Come please.” She called out.
Karu stepped in and she looked up. His black eyes were cold but he handed her several stacks of papers. She took them and she picked up a pen and began to sign her name to them. The documents would be filed with Japanese authorities on new land acquisitions and Mizuki was in a hurry to see it happen.
“I would like to get the kids this weekend.” He stated stiffly.
“Fine.” She said without looking.
She finished with the signatures and she handed them back. Her hand brushed his and he hissed softly. She tried to not stare into his black eyes but she did meet them. He was still angry and still so emotionally charged. He was so much like Ishin and she was so much like her own sire.
“Do you miss us at all Mizuki?” He asked in anger.
“Hai.” She snapped.
“Why did you have to betray me for him? Why?” He demanded.
“Karu you left me. I owe you nothing.” She said trying to get around him.
“You owe me nothing? Four centuries Mizuki! I put up with your infidelity for four centuries!” He cried.
“You had your moments Karu. Do not act like you are completely innocent here! We both fucked around on each other. We are not saints nor are we ningen so do not act like it!” She scoffed.
“You married another man Mizuki and I dealt with it and then you go and fuck the kind of creature that damn near killed you? Do you not remember what they did to you?” He asked in fury.
“I know what Renshou did. I know why Renshou did what he did.” She said in a bitter tone.
“You never told me but then you and your mother are just alike.” He yelled.
“Shut up Karu! Damn you just shut up!” Mizuki screamed.
They both were growling and they were both extremely angry at the other. She tried to get around him and he grabbed her roughly. She could scent him and he stared at her with such anguish.
“Byakuya will not give me a divorce.” She said softly.
“I imagine he is just as humiliated as I am.” Karu said in a quiet tone.
“You are humiliated hmm? Get out Karu.” She said with a heaving chest.
Something welled up in him and he grabbed her roughly. Something in him wanted to fight for her and he wanted to take back his longtime mate. He wanted to take back what he had claimed so long before. Mizuki was a little alarmed at his violent action but she was thrown harshly back on her leather sofa. Karu's smooth white face was clouded in such emotion and she went to slap him when her jacket was ripped open and he lowered his ebony head. She released a strangled cry as he suckled her deeply like she needed. She lifted her head and he went to her other tit. She tried to speak but it came out as gibberish. This man knew her body too well. He knew every inch and every curve on her and he cupped her breasts in his warm hands. Male funnel webs were just aggressive and demanding in most cases. Karu acted no different then any other powerful male kumo. He moved his lips and teeth to her juncture and sucked hard as she mewled softly for him and she was going to mindlessly fornicate with her ex-mate and she would not stop. He undid her trousers and he was thrilled to find her clad only in her silk stockings and garters. He pulled back just a little and he watched Mizuki's chest heave as she tried to calm herself.
“Mizuki.” He whispered.
She gazed on him and his thumbs spread her nether lips. Karu was always brazen with his venom and she shook knowing he would use it.
“You still love me.” He stated in a hoarse tone.
“Never stopped. Never will.” She whimpered.
“Loved you since you were three years old.” Karu whispered as he proceeded to slip both thumbs into her center.
“Oh Karu you torture me.” She groaned slowly.
“I just want to take you in ecstasy Mizuki.” He said in wicked whisper.
He pressed in on the sides of her walls and she arched so hard that it hurt. Exquisite pain ripped through her and the term hurt so good took on new meaning. She screamed out and Karu had never known her to scream. Her hands were shaking as she lifted them to grip his shoulders.
“Karu! Kamis now!” She snarled out.
“Hai.” He said pulling back totally to strip from his clothes.
Mizuki watched with passion laden eyes and his toned body was revealed. She sat up as he leaned forward and they kissed like they used to. Karu spread her wide open where one foot rested on the floor and he leaned against her. It was awkward but it let him piston slowly and kiss her fully at the same time. He fondled, rolled, and pinched any nub or sensitive area that would give her pleasure and she was a snarling mass of nerves by the time she was nearing a soul shattering end. Mizuki's claws tore down his back and he cried out but it was good. It was right to be with her and his mind was not rational. He could never be fully rational when it came to her anyway and he slipped so deeply into her mind. Her lips formed an “o” shape and she let out a silent cry. She actually fell faint from a total release and Karu was barely conscious. He had seen Soren. He saw what he considered his rival and the man was a hanyou. He sank his fangs into her neck and she came to. His back was a bloody mess but he really did not care. He made a shoki cloud appear and he took them to Sendai. When he rolled her to her belly she was already whimpering. He had his mate back and she was begging him. She was begging him in funnel and it was positively filthy but it turned him on. She was begging him for his seed amongst other things and he would oblige her.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////
She stretched on her bed and she truly felt so good. Mizuki had wanted him to do what he had done. She had desperately wanted him to take her back and she wanted to beg his forgiveness but pride had prevented her. Karu woke up and he immediately went to kissing her mouth brutally. She knew him and he truly was like Ishin. He slowly pulled back from her lips and he pressed his ear to her belly. He shut his eyes and he just listened.
“You give me another daughter and by the Kamis I am going to try and beget you with a twin by days end.” He said passionately.
“Karu?” She asked surprised.
“This hanyou is nothing to me. He may mean something to you but he is nothing to me. He will know who rules your heart like Byakuya did. I will convince Kuchiki to give you the divorce but I wish for you to take your old surname. Open for me.” He whispered feverishly.
She was mesmerized as he took charge whereas she normally did. This Karu was exciting and dangerous. It seemed the year away had made him quite emboldened. She was seized up in his sinful tongue and she gasped out. He was trying to get her with fraternal twins and she figured he just might do it. She lost her voice she screamed herself hoarse. By the time he was done, she was shaking and soaked in sweat. Karu was pleased with himself and her at the moment and he pulled her up and she sank her fangs into her old mating mark. He hissed in pleasure and it was settled between them. He was determined to allow this pastime but he would show her rather then demand. He would give her instead of take. He would have his big family like he wished and he could feel her joy at being pregnant again with his child. That made him so happy in of itself. He could not wait to thank his father on his excellent advice and Mizuki finally slept again. He went to his sire's office and he saw his now Tomoshibi sister Iyo. She was radiant and also quite with child herself. Ishin was talking away as she chatted with her corporeal father.
“Karu!” She cried sweetly.
“Iyo! Good Kamis you look so damn beautiful little sister.” He said hugging her.
“Well thank you big brother! You and Mizuki have worked out?” She asked softly.
“Hai! She is pregnant too. Father, she is giving me a son and daughter.” Karu said slyly.
“Well done.” Ishin said smiling.
Karu nodded and he sat with his half sister and father for awhile. Iyo pleaded exhaustion and she was able to get back into Hueco Mundo via a medallion that her mother had smuggled for her. Her back hurt and she was fixing to phase when she felt reiastu she had not felt in a very long time. Iyo turned to see the Fourth Espada and he looked calmly at her.
“Hello Ulquiorra.” She said very softly.
“You removed yourself from my presence.” He said without tone.
“I wished for you to be happy.” Iyo said looking down.
“I was happy. You removed yourself from me.” He said slowly walking forward.
“You did so much for me yet you still loved Rishou and Erena. I came between you three and I could not live with myself. I left to allow you three to grow as partners.” She said.
“I know you believe that Lady Iyo but you took my son.” He said and he was actually angry.
“He is well Ulquiorra. I love him so much and he is well.” She said pleading for his understanding.
“What did you name my son?” He asked in a toneless fury.
“Tsutomu Schiffer.” Iyo stated in a barely audible whisper.
“I require to know who he favors.” Ulquiorra muttered in his lifeless way.
“He has silver hair like me and your beautiful green eyes. He looks as if he cries too. Although he smiles often. He has much energy and he is very intelligent. Tsutomu is going to give me fits.” She said with a trembling lip.
“The Shouten filth got to you.” He said observing her pregnancy.
“He loves me.” Iyo stated looking up.
“He is the reason you are wraith Lady Iyo. I will see my son now.” He said nearing her and it was not a request.
“Ulquiorra please, please I beg you let it go. I was wrong for being so weak. I was wrong for leaning on you. I was strong when I was corporeal and I was fiercely independent. Kenji and I depended on each other hai but we were twins. I was weak and whiney female and I am so sorry.” She said sighing.
His eyes ere like emerald ice and he still missed her desperately. Iyo was affected by the closeness and he wanted to strike out against Nveid. He had asked Rishou and Erena what they would think if he took Iyo back. He stated that she could not dwell on the earthly plane and Rishou had said hai. Ulquiorra intended to take his son and the Shouten boy as well. His lips crushed hers without warning like he was apt to do and she whimpered loudly. A pale white hand cupped her swollen belly and he had been denied the joy of seeing her give birth. His caress was not just pressing of lips; it was deep stroking of tongues and tasting ruthlessly. He was desperate and it showed only in the intense lip lock. He very slowly pulled back and she was left staggering.
“Take me to my son Iyo.” He stated in a low toned command.
“I cannot Ulquiorra. I cannot do that and I will not. I was wrong and I was a whore. I am sorry. I am so sorry.” She said jerking away from him and phasing away.
He blinked at the spot she had been in and he knew she was no longer Shouten but Tomoshibi. She would have to leave this plane often and he would corner her. He had time. He had nothing but time in this wasteland.

She had been visited again by the sad Ruval and they had talked well into the night. She had learned that ekimmu were from all over and there were wraith clans all over the world. Most were secretive and reclusive and he found the Shouten wraiths quite odd indeed. Ruval was originally from the British Isles and he pretty well stayed in that area. He again said how lovely she was and she again told him she was honored. She felt such incredible honor to be able to see such an amazing being. She asked him about Terre de Brume and he said it was really shadowy. It looked the same but it was almost void of bright color. It was not a bad place; it was just a place. He shrugged when he pathed it and he watched her stretch out on her chaise. He thought he remembered a time when he used to join with a female but he could not be certain. She caught his thought and she met his eyes.
-You do not enjoy rutting? - Asuna asked in shock.
-Why would we need to? - He asked softly.
-Apparently wraiths are the caterpillars and ekimmu are the butterflies.” She thought.
-A very different manner of analogy but it fits. - He smiled warmly.
-So you were not Shouten. - She said in thought.
-I try to remember my clan name but it was so long ago. - He thought.
-You wish to touch and be touched. You wish to feel what it is to be corporeal in any plane. - She observed.
-I know not. - He pathed blushing.
Asuna stood and she moved to where he was. It looked as if he was seated on the floor. She sat down and she closed her eyes. She allowed herself to fall into deep concentration and Ruval watched with interest.
-Oh! - He thought in surprise.
He actually felt touches against him and it was so foreign to him. It was not ghostly ones. It felt as if he had skin and he was watching her closely.
-How? - He asked in her mind.
-Focusing my energies. You must have a solid form somehow. All life has a solid mass. - Asuna pathed.
-I do not see how. You are amazing. It nears dawn baby ekimmu. - Ruval said smiling.
-Close your eyes. - She asked in his thoughts.
He did as she said and she focused her mind again. He actually groaned in her mind. The feeling was gone so quickly and he had flashes of memory of what it was like. He remembered pressing his mouth to his wife's lips. He opened his eyes to stare into her beautiful golden brown orbs. Ruval was stunned and for some reason he wanted to experience what it was like. He was almost willing to go back to being to what he was. She lay down and watched him as he faded away. The originals may have known but they were so busy reflecting upon themselves. It was as if they were Gods. He did not understand it but he had always been a simple person. It made her sad to see him go and sometimes she swore she caught him in the day. His bronze aura she could see faintly at times. She contemplated the Ramanga and she had not even told Eyal. She had been hunting down the ancient myths of the blood drinkers supposedly from Madagascar. She ported to Romania and she slowly walked up the steps to Eyal's room and it was close to dawn. She masked so heavily to conceal her condition that she slipped in unnoticed. She wondered at Rina's temperament and it seemed she showed more Ramanga tendencies then she did succubus. She slipped in beside Eyal and he woke up. He was surprised and he sat up.
“Hello.” She smiled.
“Are you okay?” He asked softly.
“Hai. Why do you ask?” She asked.
“Because you are masking. You only mask when you are hiding something but I have learned to deal.” Eyal shrugged lying on his side.
“I have seen an ekimmu Eyal.” Asuna stated in a whisper.
“What? A real one?” He asked shocked.
“Hai. He is real and his name is Ruval. He is so sad.” She said snuggling his chest.
“I wonder why?” He asked in awe.
“His home plane is called Terre de Brume.” She explained.
“Huh.” He marveled.
“I also found out what manner of uppyr you are. You are ramanga. I am empusae.” She said watching his eyes.
He looked confused at the strange names and he took in what she said. His brown eyes shut as she proceeded to do things that only she could do. His lips were pursed and he groaned loudly as she worked him. She was so damn curious at Danika and how sensual he was. She would bet there was more to the story but she let it go. Her uppyr husband was gasping desperately as he completed through her powerful psi yoki. He felt decadent and lazy suddenly and a satisfied grin was plastered on his face. She chuckled as she kissed his mouth.
“You still do that from afar sometimes.” He said closing his eyes and lying with his hands under his head.
“Well you do not wish to be neglected. You are able to respond to it so why not?” She laughed.
“You are so different from her. You are so loving. You enjoy giving and receiving but you love so much. Sometimes it is overwhelming but I would not have you any other way. I love your over zealous nature.” He chuckled.
“In the morning I should like to talk about your brother and your parents.” She said slowly disrobing.
“What? Why?” He asked curiously.
She very slowly slid down him and he gasped harshly. Every thought went out of his head and she worked herself against him perfectly. He ended up sitting up and they mutually sank their fangs into each other and it was an incredible time. Eyal fell back and he was so incredibly satisfied that he was snoring heavily. Asuna was up and she wiped a little blood away from her mouth. She knew he was close and she ported out to the hills surrounding Budapest. Sebastein was leaning against a boulder and he looked incredibly sexy with a black button shirt open to the third button and he had on grey slacks.
“I happened to be in the area and I felt you. It was a fleeting feeling though.” He murmured.
“I intended to see you on the morrow. You have saved me time.” She said softly.
“Well then. You did not like me much in the past did you?” He asked amused.
“No, I did not Bastian but you were quite a bitter mess.” Asuna said slowly undoing his buttons.
“What are your intentions?” Sebastein asked.
“Why did you change your name?” She asked meeting his eyes.
“Change of identity. Oh Gods you have found one of my erogenous zones. You evil woman.” He sighed in pleasure.
“I am still quite amused at how sensitive they are. What was the point of piercing them?” Asuna asked as she leaned forward and tongued one mercilessly.
“I fought an older incubus. It was just a status thing and I wanted to be so honored. Oui!” He groaned as his fingers threaded in her hair.
She began to nibble harder and his cock was getting harder as she enjoyed torturing him. He had shown up to question her and she was in a mood. She undid his trousers and she wrapped her hand around him as she continued to suck and nip his flat nubs.
“I am going to come. Oh Gods I am going to come.” Sebastein said gasping harshly trying to take in breaths.
She pumped him hard as he spilled and bliss overcame his face. She was so different from Danika that he found himself at times desiring to see her. She was being especially attentive to him and it was blowing his mind. His green eyes were simmering as he watching her and she slid back up his body and attacked his mouth. He allowed himself to enjoy it and enjoy the way stroked her tongue to his. She took his hand and pressed it to her stomach and Asuna slowly pulled back.
“The kept man you would have to fight is yourself. Your child grows in my belly.” She whispered in his ear.
Sebastein's eyes widened and he grabbed her chin to make her stare at him. She was not much in a mood to talk and he was stunned.
“You have known and you just tell me?” He asked as his fingers actually shook.
“You were nervous that I would loose any child right away so I have remained in Japan so that I would make sure and stay with child.” Asuna stated amused.
“You cannot possibly want it.” He said jerking away from her.
“Pardon me?” She asked confused.
“No succubus actually wants her children. They are inconviences they endure to ensure species survival.” He stated stupidly.
Asuna laughed at the statement and she shook her head at his old anger.
“I have gone to war over my pups Sebastein or Bastian, which is it?” She demanded.
“Bastian. My given name is Bastian. Why would you go to war over children?” He asked clenching his teeth.
“Before Teiran Huber died, she had four of my pups killed. I hunted her down and found out she was pregnant with Ishin's child. Katsu is my son that I took from her dying body and Ang Chi is my adopted son for whom I went to war against my ex-mate with to restore him to the heirship. Quon and I fought over Zihao at one point and the same with Naraku. So do not think I do not want my children. I have at times not wanted to be pregnant but I have lost my mind when I have miscarried. I AM NOT Danika.” She growled.
He was speechless and he straightened his clothes.
“Were you here with him?” He demanded.
“I was here with my husband hai.” Asuna said raising a brow.
“I see. I figured perhaps you might be but hoped you had not. I am surprised he is not here threatening me.” Sebastein said hissing.
“I am masking you.” She said bluntly.
“Dirty am I?” He demanded.
“You are being difficult again Sebastein! You do this when you do not believe that something good happens.” She said perplexed.
They were arguing and they did not notice Eyal coming up. They both were yelling and Eyal made a very rude noise. Sebastein stared over at the “king” of the uppyr and he really did not want to deal with a Ramanga brat at the moment.
“What are you doing here incubus?” Eyal asked with reddened eyes.
“I was speaking with a succubus Romanian.” He said putting on a nasty smirk.
“Who happens to be my wife. You are not welcome here. Your kind is not welcome here at all.” He said crossing his arms.
“Then come Lady Asuna, our kind is not welcome here.” Sebastein smarted off.
“She is also of my kind incubus. You try my patience.” Eyal said clenching his fists.
“Eyal, I was speaking with him.” Asuna said calmly.
“I do not want him in my lands Asuna. If you must speak with this filth then I suppose you must lower yourself to do so but not in my lands.” He said haughtily.
“You sorry little shit!” Sebastein growled loudly.
“Back off bastard. Your power has no affect on me.” Eyal said standing his ground.
Asuna had not seen him act like this in a long time. She was pissed at him and she walked up to him and she was not happy.
“You are being rude and I do not appreciate it.” She said softly.
“I am being rude? He knows I have no use for his kind! You are not the same and you are my wife! I married in the church and before God. This beast is nothing but a forerunner of that slut Danika!” He roared.
“Whom at one time you bedded too Eyal.” She said under her breath.
He lost his temper and slapped her. Sebastein grew furious and he stepped between them. Eyal shoved him and Sebastein shoved back. She yelled at them to stop and they actually began to roll. They were hitting and snarling at the other as they tore into each other with claws and fangs. She was yelling at them to stop but it seemed neither was listening.
“Eyal! Damnit Eyal stop!” She screamed.
Rina, Asher, Judafre, and Jarek all come up and they were shocked to see their very elegant and refined father rolling around on the ground fighting like an adolescent. Rina tried to jump in but she was stopped by Jarek. Asuna hissed and both males were pinned to the ground by her will alone and they both stared at her in fury.
“Let me go Asuna!” Eyal snarled.
“I said stop Eyal.” She growled.
“Woman, I swear you had better let me go or I will…” Sebastein started to threaten.
“Or you will what? Bai you can come out now! Why are you here onna?” Asuna asked looking over at the Jing female.
Bai appeared corporeal and she was flushed with embarrassment. Jarek sucked in his breath and she turned her eyes to the uppyr male.
“I was observing you. I am sorry.” She said softly.
“You need not skulk around. Is everything okay?” Asuna asked still holding the two male uppyr down with her mind.
“Yes. I just wished to know more about the woman who saved me. You gave up so much for me and you suffered at Maec's hands.” Bai whispered.
“What?” Eyal roared.
“What he said!” Sebastein growled.
“Bai this discussion is best done elsewhere.” She said softly.
She released Eyal and Sebastein both and she took her sister in law's hand. She ported them away and her family just stood there.
“That was Bai Jing?” Judafre asked in shock.
“Apparently so.” Eyal said just as surprised.
Sebastein knew a little more but not nearly enough. He ported away quickly and Eyal growled. Rina was intensely curious as to what the hell was going on and her father was in a jealous snit.

Asuna poured some red wine for Bai and the wraith female took it. She was so young and so beautiful. In Asuna's opinion she put Sanra to shame.
“Does Lei know you are following me?” She asked.
“No. It is so weird that my baby brother is grown. He is so handsome. Yhea is so tortured and he wanders often.” She said sipping the wine.
“He is tortured having lived within that repulsive court.” Asuna said sitting.
“I worry for him but Lei is happy. You make him happy.” She said softly.
She smiled at her and she watched Asuna.
“I was told I have another brother that was told I was his mother.” Bai said in a tortured tone.
“Ang Chi. I have not told him. I adopted him when he was very young. I killed a wraith female that resembled you but I thought was you. She committed acts against Lei and starved Ang Chi. I thought it was Sanra.” She said shaking her head.
“Identical twins run in the tr'Awnhi line Lady Asuna. Sanra had a sister.” She said barely above a whisper.
“So Sanra may have born you all and allowed her twin the fall?” Asuna asked in a sickened tone.
“Most likely. I know she loved Maec obsessively. She loved him and would do anything in her to stay at his side including killing all of her rivals for his affection. She never worried on his wives for they were necessary to ensure the line.” Bai said visibly shivering.
“Evil whore!” Asuna bit out.
“Yes. I was not following you to offend you my lady but only to understand. I am so lost.” She said meeting her eyes.
“Should you like to meet your other brother?” Asuna asked.
“Yes.” She nodded.
Asuna stood and she ported with Bai to Shenyang. Ang Chi was sitting with Hoshi and Keiko at the moment. He was reading to them and they were squealing in laughter.
“Hello Ang Chi.” She said smiling.
“Mother! How are you? Girls go see your Obbasan.” Ang Chi said prompting the young girls.
They jumped up and hugged Asuna's legs. She leaned down and kissed them both and they giggled. Keiko lead Hoshi down the hall and Ang Chi watched the obviously Shouten female. She was tall but very slight.
“Haha, why is there a Shouten in my home?” He demanded.
“Because she wished to meet you and I did not raise you to be rude. Now quit being an ass.” Asuna growled.
He snorted and Bai moved closer. He stepped back and she jumped. He was looking at her and he found her extremely pretty and her eyes searched his.
“Who are you?” He asked.
“Perhaps this was not a good idea Lady Asuna. I am so sorry to have bothered you.” She whispered.
“Answer the damn question.” Ang Chi snapped.
“I…am…” Bai stammered.
“This is the real Jing Bai Gu; Ang Chi. She was not your mother but your older sister. Sanra tr'Awnhi was your birth mother.” Asuna explained.
His face fell and his mouth dropped open. He stared at the beautiful wraith and then at Asuna.
“She was not my mother?” He asked stunned.
“No. She was a pawn and her own mother used her name to ruin her. I intend to ruin Sanra. She is guilty for much Chi.” Asuna stated.
“Lei is my brother? Bai is my sister?” He asked trying to assimilate it.
“Hai.” She nodded.
“I am sorry. I am sorry you suffered at her hands. She beat me as a child and allowed things when my father was not around.” Bai said choking up.
Asuna shut her eyes and Ang Chi's chest was heaving. He suddenly grabbed Bai and held her tightly. She was shocked that he held her so tightly.
“I am getting involved now Mother. I am going against those sick fuckers!” He shouted.
Asuna nodded and Bai looked helpless. Asuna stepped forward and ported them all to Britain. Bai phased them into Hueco Mundo and Ang Chi looked around. Lei popped in immediately and then looked sour when he saw Ang Chi.
“Bai what the hell are you doing?” Lei asked.
“I was following her and she caught me.” She said blushing.
“Oh Bai! She sees us silly girl.” Lei actually laughed.
“Oh.” She said sheepishly.
“How are you?” Lei demanded as he whirled his wife around.
“I am well.” She laughed.
Ang Chi was extremely subdued and Lei watched him.
“Who put vinegar in your supper?” He demanded.
Ang Chi lost his temper and he actually punched his older brother. Lei stumbled backwards and again that evening Asuna witness two men begin to fight. Bai yelled too and Shan Lao came to see Ang Chi and Lei fight.
“You know you are still an arrogant fuck! I can wail on your ass now BROTHER!” Ang Chi snarled.
“Oh you want to play Ang Chi? Fine let us play!” Lei said getting mad.
“Stop it now!” Asuna yelled.
Ang Chi stopped and Lei suckered punched his baby brother. Asuna grabbed Lei and dragged him off her adopted son. Bai held her brother back and blood dripped down Ang Chi's nose.
“You are going to regret that!” Ang Chi growled.
“Whatever. You have spent all this time hating me and you have wasted all of our time. Grow up!” Lei snapped.
“I said enough! This is the tr'Awnhis doing okay? Stop it now!” Asuna yelled.
Shan Lao sighed softly and Bai went to her father. He wrapped his arms around her and just comforted her.
“Lei please stop being so confrontational.” Shan Lao stated.
“Yes Father.” He said clenching his teeth.
“Welcome Ang Chi.” Shan Lao said gently.
“Thanks. Haha, I am going to stay here for a little while. Chang called me to tell me.” Ang Chi said.
“Hai.” She nodded.
Lei looked at her and she said nothing. Bai moved to stand next to her and phased her back to Japan. Bai went to leave and Asuna stopped her.
“Please stay Bai. I wish to know you better.” Asuna stated.
“I can stay a little while.” She said softly.
She moved about her home and she sat down. Bai down as well and she looked around the modern splendor. Asuna began talking to loosen up the shy young woman and they were startled much later by a drunken Osami and Zihao. Asuna stood up and she looked ticked off.
“Sons!” She growled.
“Haha so sorry! Wrong apartment!” Osami grinned.
“Haha, I am so sorry.” Zihao said flustered.
“Zi quit being so formal man! She gave birth to us dude! She's not a goddess!” Osami chortled good naturedly.
Asuna stared at Ishin's youngest son and he was laughing merrily as he went to his mother's sideboard. Zihao tried to stop his kumo brother and Osami brushed him off.
“Brother perhaps we should go. Haha has company. Madam, I am so sorry for our rudeness. I am Zihao Masaru Hu.” He said bowing low.
“Thank you!” Asuna said with crossed arms.
“Zi! Come on man get some scotch!” Osami said grinning widely.
“Osami go home!” Asuna snarled.
“Fine.” He laughed as he ported out.
“I am sorry Haha. The brothers get together most of the time. It was our weekly get together although Chi was not there.” Zihao explained.
“Drunk porting?” She said raising a brow.
“I again am so sorry. I know better mam. I am sorry madam.” Zihao said sheepishly.
“It is no bother I assure you.” Bai said blushing.
“Go on now!” Asuna hissed.
Zihao was embarrassed and he went to the apartment he shared with Osami. The half kumo male was his favorite brother simply because they were so different. Osami was deeply telepathic like Zihao but he was rebellious; Zihao had been anything but. Osami and Ishin had always been at odds and Zihao and Quon had always been extremely close. The one thing the two brothers had in common was their mother; they both loved and adored their mother.
“Osami that was rude! You knew you were porting into Haha's house!” Zihao said perplexed.
“Kamis Zi you are such a damn prude! I know you have rutted but did you enjoy it?” Osami asked smirking.
“Sami please! I try and act like my Ba would have preferred me to act.” Zihao said mortified.
“I have bet for you Zi. That hot piece of ass in Haha's apartment. I bet you cannot get her.” Osami said licking his lips.
“I will not treat an onna as such Sami!” He said growling.
“If you will not then I will. Did you see her? Good Kamis she was gorgeous!” Osami said falling on the couch.
“Just leave her alone brother. She looked like a scared little girl. She is a Shouten by the looks of her.” Zihao said calmly as he sat in a chair.
“A Jing I bet. They are okay.” He said smirking.
Both brothers had inherited the inu eyes and they both were favorites of their jii-chan for some reason. Zihao did think the shy looking onna was beautiful but Osami was too free with himself in his opinion. He sighed and he actually was pretty drunk and he fell asleep in the chair. Osami snorted at his Byakko brother and thought about the pretty Shouten. A small smile passed his lips and he ported back to his mother's penthouse. He masked and he looked around. It was quiet and he saw the female on the balcony. He moved over to her and she startled.
“Sorry. You are really jumpy.” He said smiling.
“Your mother told me you are a spider?” Bai said softly.
“Hai. Kind of nasty huh?” He said chuckling.
“No.” She blushed.
“I am the youngest son of Lord Ishin of the Tsuchigumo Confederation. I am a supreme disappointment to my father and my mother happens to think I am okay.” He chuckled again.
“I doubt your father thinks you are a disappointment.” She said softly.
“Well I am not the son he would have wished for. He has Karu and Jouichi; to hell with Osami.” He said looking at the city.
“I am sorry you think that.” Bai said.
“No matter. You are very pretty by the way.” He grinned.
“Thank you.” She blushed profusely.
“Who are you onna?” Osami asked raising a black brow.
“I am Jing Bai Gu.” She said stepping back.
“The real one huh? Haha said you were framed. Cool! She did not say you were so damn pretty. Are all wraith onna so?” Osami asked bluntly.
“Your mother exonerated me?” Bai asked surprised.
“She is pretty cool like that. We were shocked when she made an alliance with your brother Lei considering how much they hated each other but then the dude actually professed to love her. That blew us away.” He said.
“Hated each other? He loves her so much now. He is so passionate about her and their children; Lifen and Shen. I watch him with them and he loves them with his whole being. Lei would not be whole with those three.” She said in a gentle tone.
“Very nice. I have met Lifen and Shen a couple of times. They are cute as hell.” He smiled.
Bai was blushing madly and Osami smiled widely.
“Haha sleeping?” He asked.
“Yes. She is fatigued. I feel two auras within her but she did not say.” Bai whispered.
“Hai.” He nodded.
He put his finger under her chin and very gently guided her forward. He only pressed his lips to hers so he did not scare her off. Bai was surprised as he pulled back as quickly as he had done it.
“You were a scapegoat and that really sucked. We are gonna wipe the tr'Awnhi asses all over the map you know.” He said squeezing her hand.
“I hope so. Maec used your mother ill. I hope they die painfully.” She said looking away.
Osami felt bad for her and she looked back at him. Her eyes were liquid and tears fell from her eyes. He was surprised as they were bloody. He went for some tissue and he wiped them away. She wanted to phase away but he surprised her again and he pulled her to his lips. Bai was not used to gentleness when it came to physicality and he was being gentle. Osami was a cad but he hated when an onna cried. It was in his nature to comfort and Bai opened her lips. He groaned very softly and swept his tongue in and his hands threaded into her black hair. She moaned into it and they both were getting very into it.
“Osami!” Asuna snarled.
Her son jumped nearly a mile and he jerked away from Bai quickly. Bai turned red and she phased out. Osami turned and looked sheepishly at his mother.
“She is off limits, do you understand me?” She commanded.
“Why?” He asked in a whine.
“Because she is vulnerable and you are a cad. She will not be used by your or anyone. Now go home.” She demanded.
“Haha!” He said offended.
“Osami, I love you boy but you will not hurt her. She is fragile.” Asuna said hissing.
“Yes mam.” He sighed.
She nodded and he ported out. She was simmering at her son and she went back to her bed. She was feeling the exhaustion and she intended to sleep. She heard a clearing of a throat and she saw Sebastein in the shadows. Asuna watched him and something overcame her. She had been wearing a silk night gown but she undid it slowly and it fell to the floor. The incubus's eyes were red as he walked over to her and tipped her head back.
“Do not lie to me. I will not be betrayed by another succubus again.” He said in supreme fury.
“What am I supposedly lying about Bastian?” She asked in a whisper.
“Wanting my child. Do not lie to me!” He growled in her face.
She reached up and held his face between her hands and made him look at her.
“You do not believe that I am not Danika but I am not her. I want this little one whatever it may be and I will love it as much as I possibly can. Did your own mother not care?” Asuna asked.
“She was distant from me and my siblings. She did not hate us per say but she was not bubbling over with love either. She acknowledged us and made sure we were fed and clothed. My education was seen to by my nannies and brothers. I know not what happened to her.” He said bitterly.
“Do you think she could have become ekimmu?” She asked softly.
“It is possible. I suppose actually that it is entirely possible.” He said as his eyes faded to green.
She took his hand and pressed in on her stomach. His face held disbelief but she slowly kissed him. He was still so incredibly bitter and he still remembered what Danika had done.
“What did she do to him?” Asuna asked softly.
“Do not ask. Please I have no wish to remember.” He said trying to pull from her.
“Sebastein please tell me.” She said holding onto him.
“It was heinous okay? She burned her own child alive. He was a newborn and his screams haunt me to this day.” He said shutting his eyes.
She was horrified and she was sickened. She turned green and she fled away from him. She threw up into her toilet and he stood by. The idea of a completely helpless child burning alive made her skin crawl and she wanted to find her and make her suffer. Her eyes were red and Sebastein came in.
“I hate her so much because I begged her and begged her to spare him as she cut him. She laughed as he wailed. I cannot forgive that. I cannot forgive that she made him suffer so horribly. She had not only Ileska with her but three more succubuses. They held me down and made me watch. You should have seen the joy in her face as she murdered him.” He said in a haunted tone.
“Please stop!” She said as tears fell from her eyes.
“I managed to kill two of the succubus and I got my hands around her throat. I did not even want to spill her blood. I was strangling her with my hands but she made me burn. I have waited and waited to pay her back for his death. I have so much guilt for fathering a child with that monster.” He said shaking.
“What was his name?” She asked.
“Ferrand. My son's name was Ferrand.” He said going to the window.
“How old was he?” Asuna asked.
“Two days.” Sebastein said choking.
She shook her head no and Sebastein looked grim. Asuna had no clue how to find her but she was shaking. She ported to the Western Palace and she found her mother. Augusta was sitting with her sire and she looked up to see her eldest daughter.
“Asuna? Baby what is wrong?” She asked.
“Mother. Oh Kamis I must speak with you.” She said wanting to be sick again.
“Sit down. You look as though you are going to vomit.” Augusta stated.
Asuna fled to the balcony and wretched again. Sesshomaru moved over to her and so did Augusta. Their oldest daughter was so sick with grief that she was dry heaving.
“Danika was married to Sebastein. She bore him a son and he wanted that son. Your brother's name was Ferrand and she burned him alive at two days old. Sebastein begged her for his life and she killed him anyway. Sebastein said there was joy on her face as she killed him.” Asuna said as she wiped tears from her face.
Augusta knew what her mother was capable of. She had been thankful that she had been left to Stasio. Now she was glad she had been left to the raping bastard. She closed her eyes and said a prayer to her long dead brother and prayed to God that her mother's soul would burn in the hottest fires of hell.
“I am giving Sebastein a child for the one Danika robbed him of.” Asuna said softly.
“I think that wonderful. I think I should like to see him again.” Augusta stated.
Sesshomaru listened and he hoped to the Kamis that they would maim the whore before they killed her. Asuna grabbed her mother's hand and ported them to her Tokyo home. Sebastein was still there and Augusta saw the ancient incubus.
“Hello.” She said softly.
“Hello again.” He said dully.
“My mother is a monster and she will die. She tried to kill me recently along with my youngest daughter.” She said.
“I am amazed you and your brother survived.” He stated.
“Not for lack of trying on her part I assure you. Between both of my parents; I am surprised I am not a horridly evil thing myself.” Augusta said.
“How come you wanted a family?” He asked.
“I wanted the one thing I did not have. I suppose I am odd. I wanted love and I wanted children. I have such a difficult time with it. I damn near bled out having Asuna and Osamu but I was so happy. I was so happy because I was giving Sesshomaru an heir and another pup. We were never so happy as that day.” Augusta said cupping Asuna's cheek.
Sebastein actually had a tear slip out of his green eyes and he looked away. Long life was not what it was cracked up to be in his opinion and the three uppyr stood there. Asuna was raging at the sheer evilness of Danika. She was trying to suppress the anger she was feeling but Augusta felt it too and Sebastein finally ported out. Mother and daughter sat down and they talked for a long while. Her mother finally ported back to the Western Palace and she ported out to Paris. Sebastein was in his bed and he was sleeping. She slipped off her night gown and she crawled into his bed beside him. His eyes opened and he was surprised. She was over him and she was feeling so much anguish and fury at the moment. She did not know what to do with the emotions. Sebastein watched her face and he could feel raw power humming from her.
“Are you going to destroy my town house like you did my chateau?” He asked softly.
“No but tell me what to do. I am so upset.” She said physically shaking.
“I do not know. I am very drunk right now Asuna. I find sometimes that the wine suppresses the pain for a little while.” He admitted.
She made him angle his face up and she lowered her shaky lips to his. It was so soft how she pressed them to Sebastein's mouth but he was trying to keep a level head. He was trying to suppress his natural tendencies and drives but she made it impossible to ignore. Sebastein opened his lips to receive her probing tongue. He tasted sweet to her and she wanted to devour him for some reason. He was dizzy already but he grew bold and shoved her off. She landed on her back and he fell on her. Sebastein was in his own lust and he lowered his head and began to suckle her right breast.
“If you have known about me all this time then why did you act as if you did not?” She asked in a passionate haze.
He lifted his now red gaze to hers and he stared at her eyes.
“I do not know. I did not want to trust you or like you. Fuck you oui but not like you ever.” Sebastein admitted.
“You wanted to use my body?” She asked hissing softly.
“Oui but you shatter me now.” He hissed back.
He again lowered his head and slipped his fangs around her nipple and she was in a sort of erotic lala land. She was making passionate cries and Sebastein was using all of his abilities. He made her feel filled and stretched and she gasped out a tremendous snarl.
“Want real you.” She rasped out.
He was too busy feeding his tremendous lust and need at the moment and she turned the tables on him. He choked on a little blood and he groaned as if wounded. He released her luscious breast and laid his head against her heaving chest. Their bodies were wrapped up in their mental abilities and they were reacting powerfully.
“You first.” He whispered impassioned.
“No you first.” She groaned.
They were unwilling to release the other and they both still moaned out; trapped within the illusions of their tremendously powerful minds. A slow burn was building from deep within her and she was gasping harder and her claws pierced his back and she was making everything throb with such acute intensity. The slowly building orgasm unleashed and took her by surprise and she screamed out as the sheer pleasure shook her. Asuna made him share in her bliss through her telepathy and he clasped her hands hard and she felt his hot seed against her thigh. She stared at the ceiling and they were shaking hard.
“Feel like a teenage boy.” He mumbled.
“I want you inside of me.” Asuna said in a tired voice.
“Was that not just as intense no?” Sebastein asked almost amused.
“I want you inside of me!” She snapped.
“So you want me inside of you?” He asked in her ear.
He was teasing her with his emerging stiffness and she was groaning. He actually loved how responsive she was. Danika was responsive to a point and only if it served her purposes. He was whispering in her ear which made her moan more and she nodded. She snarled softly as he continued to tease and lick at her ear.
“Bastian please!” She whined softly.
“Oui but look at me.” He rasped out.
She watched his red eyes with her own and he pushed into her slowly. Asuna bit her lips and she leaned up a little to catch his. He kept his face neutral but it felt so damn wonderful. She was not settling for little nips and she pulled him against her as she invaded his mouth. She liked to kiss he noticed and he could not complain; she was way too good at it, it left him breathless and weak in the knees. He moved his hips as they mated their lips and tongues languidly. Sebastein wanted to give himself totally to another; he had just lived too long and he craved companionship. Asuna could feel his desires and she was within his mind and they were so deep. Nothing was hurried and she was dragging him deeper into something and it was beautiful whatever it was and it was intimate. He ripped his lips from hers and gasped heavily.
“Feels like death sleep.” He gasped.
“Soul binding. Mine.” She said in a beastly tone.
“Oui.” Sebastein cried out harder.
The combustion of another kind exploded and he felt another form of burning and it was so good. It ripped what felt like his soul from him but he did not care. He could sense her and he was shocked to sense the truth. She was going to bear him a daughter and it was damn near pure empusae. Sebastein had gleaned that word from her mind and he drove himself into her deeply as they shared a surreal moment. Exquisiteness had been achieved and she would not let him go. She cleaved to him and it was foreign to him but not unwelcome. He refused to collapse against her so he would not harm his precious child or his partner. He managed to pull himself back and he laid his head against her abdomen.
“I was not done.” She pouted.
“I want her okay.” He whispered softly.
“Our being together is not going to harm her.” Asuna laughed softly.
“Indulge me.” Sebastein whispered.
“Hai okay I shall indulge you. I can climax safely and I can be with you.” She smiled.
“Oui I know but I want her.” He said in a drowsy tone.
He was snoring heavily and she was running her hand through his hair as he slept. Danika had committed so many damn sins and they just mounted. Asuna was planning to go against her sooner rather then later and she would have to be careful. She intended to pull on some of her most powerful allies to do so as well. She intended to ask Sheng and Jin to back her up and they could be on par with her evil grandmere.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She was in Guangzhou and she was waiting to see Jin. They were all on friendly terms again and Hiroto was there as well. He kissed her cheek and she hugged her eldest tightly. Sheng came out and his eyes met hers and he smiled softly. Jin walked out as well and she smiled at him too.
“So what brings the Western Heir to our doors?” Jin asked.
“I am here to ask for both of your help. I wish to find and deal a wretched blow to Danika.” She explained.
“Okay. I know that name but explain to me again who she is?” He asked with a furrowed brow.
“She is my mother's mother. She was a lover of Vlad when he was possessed by the wraith.” She explained.
Jin's face clouded in old pain and he nodded. Sheng kept silent but only listened.
“She is succubus and an extremely powerful one at that. She has allied herself with the tr'Awnhi against us. Danika has committed such heinous acts members of her own family and such. I intend to give her a wake up call. I intend to show her what the empusae should be.” Asuna said flatly.
“Empusae?” Sheng asked.
“That is the species of uppyr we are Sheng. There are the empusae, Ramanga, wraiths, ekimmu, etc. All are blood drinking daemons and all are related but different subtly. Does that make sense?” She asked.
“Hai.” He nodded.
“When do you wish to move and where is she?” Jin asked.
“I know not where she is now but I know where she is in the past. I will find her then and I will lead us. I am pupped but I will allow you both the lead in this. If the boys would like I would like their help as well. They would be extremely powerful against her as well.” Asuna said softly.
“You would allow us to lead the attack?” Sheng asked amused.
“Hai. I swore and I promised that no harm would come to these little ones. I have to deliver them. I have to.” She said haunted.
“Okay.” Jin smirked.
“I am in.” Hiroto said from the door.
“Thank you son.” She said.
“No thanks are necessary Haha. I will get Kaz.” He said porting out.
Jin and Sheng were both intrigued with the prospect of helping her. Sheng went about getting some things pulled together and he went to his rooms. She followed him and leaned in his doorway.
“What did she do that you feel you have to right Koi?” He asked.
“Sebastein is a very old incubus and he was married to her long ago. He apparently actually wanted a family and she did bare him a son but she burned the babe alive when he was but days old.” She stated.
Sheng was horrified as she knew he would be. He was nothing if not a great father and his boys adored him. The twins had always loved their Chichi so much.
“I will enjoy helping to kill this bitch then.” He said meeting her eyes.
She nodded and he went to a case and pulled out the fang she had forged for him centuries before. She shut back the old feelings and Jin came up and clapped her on the back.
“Come on you two.” He said in a jovial mood.
“Sure thing. I will get Juria.” Asuna stated.
She ported to her Tengu and she was busy mixing potions it seemed and she automatically handed her crystals.
“Do you always sense me coming?” She asked amused.
“Most of the time. I have an emotional tie to you.” Juria shrugged.
“Why did you not tell me about Maec?” Asuna asked.
She stiffened and she turned.
“Why do you not tell me everything? It is past and it was another life my darling. I realize that Augusta is your birth mother this life and I try to respect that. Show me the same respect and realize that I too have lived after that life as well.” She said softly.
“Maec has turned his obsession from Sana to me.” Asuna growled.
“Well then I will have to step in. I block out much Asuna. I hate those memories so much. They hurt to remember. Now get going and get that bitch.” Juria stated.
She nodded and took the crystals. She ported back to Guangzhou and the Panyu royals; they readied themselves to face Danika.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Asuna, Jin, Sheng, Kazuo, and Hiroto were in the past around the time of Gaku Jouichi. They were at the crossroads where Asuna had found her before. They were scenting and she moved forward slowly. She found a male youkai tied down who was half alive and left for dead. She scented him and he was a rare monkey youkai.
“Horrid bitch!” Jin growled.
“They are probably looking for another meal. They live in these covens apparently. Sebastein said sometimes the females will live in large groups like this.” She explained.
“Unnatural.” Hiroto said frowning.
“Hai.” She nodded.
Asuna undid the bindings and she held up the male youkai. He opened his weakened eyes and he was surprised.
“I am going to cut my wrist okay?” She said softly.
“You are inu?” He whispered in Japanese.
“You are a Japanese youkai?” She asked.
“Hai.” He rasped.
“Hai I am an inu. You will live this day sir. How long have the uppyr been gone?” She asked.
“No idea.” He said.
She cut her wrist with her claws and she had him drink. She used her mind to keep it barely pleasant and he seemed affected very little. The simian was able to move a little better and Asuna pulled him up.
“Go and never come back here. This is an evil place.” Asuna stated.
“Who is it I owe my life to?” He demanded.
“I am Lady Asuna. That is all you need to know. Go on please.” She said nodding her head.
“We will meet again inu.” He said porting out.
Sheng and Jin both snorted in annoyance and she looked at them surprised.
“Hai he wants you.” Jin said.
She rolled her eyes and she stood up. They searched the coven and Asuna found private things of Danika. She heard things crashing and people cursing and she ran in. She saw her some ways away and Sheng got in between the two succubuses.
“More food? How wonderful! You are quite beautiful little man.” Danika said smiling.
Asuna lost her head and she used her telekinesis to move Sheng out of the way. She stretched out her hand and Konkisaiga appeared.
“What are you?” She asked purring.
“Revenge.” She growled.
“Damnit onna!” Sheng said jumping up.
Sheng pulled his own fang and moved with blinding speed. Danika was shocked and she was slammed hard into the hard male body by an unseen force and she was impaled on the sharp medal of the sword.
“Damn Koi that was harsh.” Sheng snickered.
“Sheng!” Asuna hissed.
“You bastard!” Danika snarled.
She ported off his blade and he was thrown backwards. He flipped and landed crouched as Danika tried to make him erupt into flames. His clothes were smoking a little but something appeared in his hand and he threw it through the succubus. Asuna realized it was his yoki and it was a solid mass of poisonous yoki that he solidified much like her Dakkasou. Danika screamed and she ported out. Asuna could not believe how quick he had thought or how quick he had reacted.
“You were marvelous!” She cried.
“Well thank you Koi. She is not dead though.” He said frowning.
“But you hurt her!” She said happily.
“Well hai. Do not look so surprised that I have yoki silly onna. You are the one that thought I was a taiyoukai and I am.” He chuckled.
“You continued to surprise me is all.” Asuna smiled.
“Well I try.” Sheng bowed with a teasing manner.
“We were lucky and she was not expecting us.” Jin said coming up and wiping off his blade.
“Did you stab them through the heart and cut off their heads?” Asuna asked.
“Hai we did. We know how to kill uppyr.” He snorted.
“Okay. I wish I could see her suffer.” She groused.
“This side of you I am not used to seeing.” Sheng stated almost amused.
“I am. When she and I met, she was a nasty little bitch. She had all kinds of temper tantrums.” Jin teased.
“I did not!” Asuna growled.
Hiroto and Kaz looked at each other as their mother and father were easy with each other. Jin was easy too and it was really nice to see. They walked side by side and they did not realize they were being watched. Danika felt incubus in every single male and she was shocked to feel it. They were extremely powerful and that was surprising. The female was a mixed succubus but she was uppyr dominant and that was shocking because she looked other. She was bleeding terribly and she would have to devour many to survive the damage. She realized the female was an elemental and that was shocking as well. She was fire elemental and this female was an air elemental. Her men were too powerful and she had to know more. None of her coven was left and she ported out to her home in the steppes of Russia so she could heal.

Asuna and Sheng were camped out and they were going to see if they could track her and go after her. The companionship was comfortable and neither said anything. The twins and their uncle had gone hunting and the two mixed inu were staring a fire.
“How are you feeling?” He asked.
“Tired. It is weird.” She laughed softly.
“How so?” He asked amused as he leaned back to look at her.
“To be here with you. It seems like forever ago that we were so young and together. It does not seem like the boys should be old enough to be adults.” Asuna replied.
“Hai well they have made me proud everyday. I know you are proud as well. You did right I think in sending us away.” Sheng stated.
“I know it seems it was callous but if I could do it over again, I would have found a way. I would have found a way to make you understand what I was.” She said softly.
“Kazuo had an unhealthy obsession with Mizuki. Separation needed to happen.” He stated bluntly.
“You knew?” She asked surprised.
“I found out later. They are extremely close now and I wonder but I try and give him credit.” Sheng stated.
Asuna digested the information and she leaned forward a little and their lips hovered a little.
“Koi. I still come undone around you. I try and be a bystander but it gets harder every time I see you. I swear I want to move back to just be with you again.” He murmured.
“I would welcome you.” She murmured back.
Their lips met and it was explosive. Sheng was deeply probing her with his tongue and his thoughts against hers. She could not hold out against his powerful mind. He leaned her back and undid the black haori and hakama she wore. His chin length brown hair was mussed up and it was so incredibly sexy on this virile male. She exposed his chiseled body that she almost as well as her own. He could not stop kissing her nor would he let up on the stroking of her inner soul. She was making so many whimpers and a groan into their kiss but it was muffled. He knew she desired him as much as he wanted her and he did not wait as he worked himself inside of her vise like core. It was always joy when he was united in the flesh and mind with her; this was no different but it was different this time. Asuna had asked him to return to Japan. She had asked him to return to her and his heart had leapt. Sheng knew so many secrets of the Panyu and what it was they were now. He wished he had seen to his heritage sooner. He wished he had learned to suppress his inu tendencies long ago. His mental rupture took him first and she scored his back deeply as she screamed out after she ripped her lips from his. Sheng gasped as their combined yoki and orgasm blossomed and swept them along like a tidal wave. He was moaning out in her ear as he was shattering and her eyes were flaming red. Blood welled up and dripped from the deep wounds on his back. She sank her fangs so deeply into his juncture that he snarled out again. She felt his body shudder in another powerful climax and he wasted no time in doing the same to her. He muffled her scream with his wrist and she bit him there too. They were shaking in the after math of powerful bliss and years upon years of knowing the other. Sheng had to erect a barrier fast to keep his twin sons and his brother away. Her screams had brought them running.
“Koi? Are you okay?” He asked in a growling tone.
“Hai.” She said sleepily.
“Did I tire you out?” Sheng asked chuckling.
“Hai. Do you feed like I do?” Asuna asked.
“Hai a little. I do not need it as much as you or nearly as often but hai I do.” He whispered against her lips.
She nodded slowly and he slowly pulled back. He kissed her belly and she ran her fingers through his hair.
“Chang has needed a child. He will be ecstatic that it is a female.” He yawned softly.
“You can sense it?” She asked surprised.
“Hai. I feel them both. Both little angels. I should like to tell him. He will cry you know.” Sheng laughed softly.
“Why? I figured most inu males preferred a son first.” Asuna said softly.
“Well Changming is not most inu males. He adores you and he has wanted a little girl for a long time.” He said running his finger tips along her breasts and belly.
“They are wondering what we are doing.” She smiled.
“They are all grown Koi. All three of them have had sex. I am allowed some myself occasionally.” He smirked.
His blue eyes were simmering and she saw passion in them like when they were young. He pulled her astride him and she gasped harshly.
“I knew you were pupped. I got it out of your kumo healer. You need not lie to me Koi. I would never again expect you to be what you are not. You are still a warrior and you still protect your family.” Sheng said gently as he guided her in a circular undulation.
“Sheng, I am going to climax now.” She said breathlessly.
“Good because you are too tight.” He said groaning.
They stayed like that the rest of the night and the barrier finally failed. Sheng had pathed to Jin and his sons to please steer clear and give them privacy. The twins were elated; their parents were together and that made them thrilled.

Danika was healed enough and she went searching for the group that had ruined her delightful little coven. Anger consumed the powerful succubus that she should be taken on by anyone let alone a little tart like the silver haired whore. She found the brunette male and the silver male asleep in each other's arms and she scoffed at the scene. It was obvious there was affection and she found it weak. She was suddenly behind the woman and she grabbed a fistful of hair and she jerked her head back. She saw her awake and her eyes were red. Asuna grabbed Danika's throat and Sheng was suddenly awake as well.
“Not smart in returning succubus.” Asuna said in Russia.
“Really? You are the one at my mercy weak little bitch!” She snarled.
“Oh really? Try this on for size.” She said as she pressed her hand to Danika's breast.
She released a huge nami that should have blown a hole through her but it threw her backwards and into a tree with such force that the conifer shattered. Blood poured down the blonde succubus's front and she was rasping for breath as she saw Asuna rise.
“I will have you know that I bear within me Sebastein's daughter. Not only am I stronger then you Danika but this girl will be more powerful then you and I put together. If I do not finish you off then Bastian's little girl will. I will see to it. I will see to it that you will end horribly.” She said in a cruel tone.
“You little tramp! He conned you into giving him a brat? What did he have to do to accomplish that?” She asked in a demeaning tone.
“Oh we made passionate love. It was wonderful really.” Asuna growled.
“Wonderful with Bastian? Sex with him was about as wonderful as boiling alive in hot oil.” She snorted.
“With you as a partner I am sure it was.” She retorted.
Danika growled furiously and came at her. The raw hum of power was deafening as both onna were trying to tear at the other. Danika tried to make her erupt into flames and Asuna was able to deflect it with small namis. The small forest around them erupted into a blaze as the Panyu royal males surrounded them.
“You will not win with so many of your kind here. I know what you did to Ferrand. I know what you did to Bastian when he tried to save the boy.” Asuna growled nearing her claws to Danika's face.
Danika suddenly shrieked in horrid agony as Asuna raked her claws across her beautiful face and she had laced the wounds with her caustic toxin. She released the other succubus as she stumbled around.
“You bitch!” She shrieked.
“Hai.” Asuna smirked too cruelly.
“My face!” She snarled.
“Now better matches your soul do you not think?” She asked as Danika suddenly ported out.
Sheng stood by and admiration ran through him. Asuna decided it was high time to return home and deal with things there. She had a smile on her face the whole time simply because she had managed to make such a personal blow to Danika. They returned to the future era and Sheng went on about his business of moving his things back to Japan. She ported to Paris and she walked through Sebastein's townhouse. He was actually talking with an incubus she did not know and she beckoned him over to her. He stood up and he was dressed in a crisp white button down with dark wash jeans. The male empusae was just too damn gorgeous. She pulled him into her arms and he was a little surprised.
“What are you all smiling about?” He asked.
“Let us just say I had a very good few days.” She purred.
“You look again like the cat that ate the canary.” Sebastein teased.
“I know you have company but I was hoping to see you.” She said softly.
“See me or be with me?” He asked with a glint in his eyes.
“Both.” She said.
“You wish to speak and to bed me hmmm? That is quite an offer.” He said playing with her silver hair.
“Shall I tell you I wish to tease you into tautness and lick you till you come?” She asked in his ear.
He shut his eyes a moment and her words inflamed him.
“Oui.” He said shaking a little.
She took his hand and pressed it to her belly. He felt something and his eyes widened. She kissed his lips softly as she continued to press his hand in so he could feel the small movements.
“Amazing! Gods this is amazing.” He whispered against her mouth.
“Hai.” She whispered back.
Sebastein felt so much and he pathed to his friend. Asuna ported them to his room and they ended up spending the night making love and talking. She did not say she went up against his ex-wife and she enjoyed seeing his face as she made him feel much. She left in the morning and he was lying languidly in his bed. He missed the warmth but he knew her needs like he knew his own. He suddenly sat up and he saw in the corner a woman he had not seen in millenniums.
“She should have killed me but I am thinking she does not have the power to.” Danika said in a nasty whisper.
“What are you doing bitch!” He growled.
“Returning a favor your little cunt did.” She said in fury.
Danika drew closer and he saw faint scars along the left side of her face. He was shocked to see her famous beauty marred and grabbed him by the neck. Her claws sank into his throat. Blood dripped from her nose as she squeezed hard and he was exerting pressure upon his windpipe.
“She cares about you. She carries you daughter she said. Well I will rip that little brat from her womb and shove it down your throat you sorry bastard! You were mine Sebastein and you think you can train someone to take me down? You could not even take me down. You were the king of us you pathetic excuse for a man. You will die.” She said as blood continued to drip from her nose and her eyes.
She felt a sword at her back and she stiffened.
“I had a feeling you would return.” Asuna said smirking.
“Well you are just a smart little bitch.” Danika said.
“I am a warrior you idiot. I plan everything. You are a self indulgent fool. Step away from him.” She commanded.
Danika went to strike but Asuna used her will and threw the other through a wall. Sebastein jumped up and he grabbed a thin blade from his wall. Ileska appeared behind Danika and she hissed at both of them. It was chaos all around and Asuna's draw dropped when she saw Ruval. No one else saw him but he was in the shadows. He was nodding no to her and her eyes were wide and she was pathing her confusion. He continued to nod no and the two female empusae got away. Sebastein was sputtering and she was staring at the shadows.
“You had them!” He yelled.
“I was told not to.” She said in anger.
“By what? It is just you and me!” Sebastein yelled again.
“No Bastian Ruval is here now.” Asuna said pointing to the shadows.
“Why is it only you can see him?” He shouted.
“How should I know?” She asked.
-It is not her time. I will explain but I need you to come to Terre de Brume. - He pathed.
“What?” She said aloud.
“Asuna you are going nuts.” Sebastein said lifting his hands.
“He told me he wants me to come to Terre de Brume.” Asuna said softly.
“You cannot go there!” Sebastein stated narrowing his eyes.
-You can. No one else can but you see me and you can. You will be one of us. - Ruval pathed.
Indecision flitted on her face and she stared at his shadowy figure.
-I have to stop her. She is the source of much anguish, do you not understand? - She pathed back.
-She is the daughter of someone important here. They will not take kindly to her death. - He implored her.
-Ruval who are you? - She asked.
-I can explain face to face. Please I wish to see in person- He begged in her mind.
“I have to Sebastein. I have to have some answers and he has them. He is telling me he knows who Danika's kin is. I want to know who would sire such a monster.” She said flatly.
“You carry my future in you Asuna. I cannot loose you or her!” He implored her.
“You will not but I damn well will see to the death of Danika and all of her allies. There is something bigger going on here and I will know what it is. I will see you soon Sebastein.” She said kissing him softly.
Ruval frowned from his vantage point but he pathed for her to go to the British Isles. He pathed for her to meet him at the great Stonehenge.
