Confliction
 
Ryuu was staring at his brother and Ryukotsusei was really mad. In fact, he was furious. The younger dragon could not bring himself to look at his brother and his beloved lord and elder sibling was in a tirade.
 
“You should have come to me! You should lean on me Ryuu! I am your lord and your brother for Kamis sake! When have we ever not been there for each other? Did I not shelter you when our father would beat our mother? Have I not always looked out for you little brother?” Ryukotsusei growled.
 
“She is your mate brother. She has been giving me her time and I have needed that but I love Akemi too! She is apart of my family and by the Kamis it is my right as well to defend my lady's honor as well as my brother!” Ryuu growled low in his throat.
 
“But she is my mate Ryuu. She is my mate and the mother of my sons. I should know if some other beast lays a hand on her!” The elder dragon said clenching his fists.
 
“I am sorry brother. I know all this but this have given me purpose. I do not think of my dead son and mate when I am filled with the fury.” Ryuu said shaking his head.
 
“I know that too. I also have no wish to lay to rest my best friend!” He growled.
 
“Ryu, I understand and I humbly apologize.” His brother bowed low to him.
 
“Akemi is pregnant with one of those beasts and a dragon.” Ryukotsusei stated shaking his head in anger.
 
“Pardon me?” He asked stunned.
 
“Hai. I have tried to be careful of her. I can see it in her face; she wants to have my child but it terrifies her.” His lord sighed deeply.
 
Ryuu was unable to speak and he was cotton mouthed all of a sudden. The timing of everything was in sync and he was certain that she must bear within her womb his child. He had to sit down and he was numb. The ramifications of what his brother was telling him were deep and he would never say a word he realized. He had always been around for his nephews and they were fond of him. He also realized he would never hurt his brother with the truth.
 
“Does she want the beast?” He asked with a tinny voice.
“I will not allow her to abort it. It is an innocent and it is still a reptile. These creatures may be beasts but this wyvern is half Akemi. It will be a more refined and gentler creature. I will dare the wyvern ruler to cross us.” Ryukotsusei stated with a nasty smirk.
 
“Your smile reminds me of the battles with the Taisho.” Ryuu smiled a little.
 
“Ah hai. The lead inu himself. Bastard!” He growled.
 
Ryuu held in his deep sighs as he watched his brother. The two sons of the Mizuchi were so far removed and different from their father that they could get. They had always adored their rather gentle mother and they had put up with their father until his death. Their mother had committed suicide long before.
 
“Do you think this hybrid wyvern will alright? You know the stories. Do you think the dragon babe will be okay?” The younger dragon asked.
 
“I think I shall have her watched carefully. If push comes to shove then my child will be saved and the wyvern gotten rid of.” Ryukotsusei said point blank.
 
Ryuu nodded and Ryukotsusei turned around when he felt strange auras. He saw the Western princess flanked by a holy man and another inu. His mouth dropped and he looked at the onna he had killed in a previous.
 
“You can close your jaw Ryukotsusei. Akemi asked me to assist you and you know damn well I can.” Asuna smirked.
 
“Hai. Who are these men?” The dragon asked.
 
“This monk is named Housei. He is a powerful houshi and this is Lord Jin of Panyu. He is also associated with me.” Asuna said in introduction.
 
Hakushin bowed and Jin bowed as well. Ryukotsusei followed suit and he had heard of the fabled Panyu Lord. There were rumors of the strength of the royal family and he could sense a powerful yoki off of him.
 
“Thank you for your assistance then Lady Asuna. I did ask my mate to stay at the castle.” He said in a temper.
 
“No offense Ryukotsusei but would you really expect anything less from Akemi?” She asked almost amused.
 
“No not really. Hard headed onna.” He sighed.
“Honestly you fell in love with and admired her gumption and independence. I know for a fact she takes charge in religious matters and as well as acts your regent when you are away.” Asuna said cocking her head to the side.
 
“So?” He asked blushing a little.
 
“Anyway. I know about where the wyvern hail from exactly.” Asuna stated.
 
“Well then by all means lead us. You would do it anyway.” Ryukotsusei snorted.
 
“Oh you are so charming. You have been apart of the family too long dragon. Your sense of humor grows.” She retorted.
 
Jin chuckled and Hakushin suppressed a smile. Dragons were fearsome and powerful youkai. It was a sight to see an inu onna dress down the dragon lord and she walked ahead of them. She stared at Ryuu with a knowing look and he quickly looked away. They were still in Asia and actually near Qinghai. Asuna was walking through the lands she knew well and her mind was going back to her past. A smile graced her lips as she remembered the taking of Sapporo. She remembered meeting Quon for the first time and she remembered when they finally gave into their desire. Tremendous pain went through her heart but she kept walking. Her Byakko prince was one of her great loves. She always made time for him and she missed him every time she saw Zihao's face. Her Byakko son looked a lot like his sire and she could not be any prouder.
“You seem to be drifting Asuna.” Jin stated.
 
“I am thinking of one of my sons.” Asuna murmured.
 
“What is his name?” He asked.
 
“Zihao.” She said lifting her chin.
 
“Very Chinese name.” Jin said taking her hand.
 
“Speaking of names, what do you wish to call our pup?” She asked softly.
 
“I was thinking Itsuyo.” He said brushing her cheek with his fingers.
 
“I like it.” Asuna smiled at him.
 
“I am glad. It was my grandmere's name.” He said staring ahead.
 
“It is perfect.” She stated looking at the countryside.
 
“So we are going to stop for the night and come up with a plan?” Jin inquired.
 
“Hai that sounds good.” She said looking at their surroundings.
 
She called them all and they made a makeshift camp. She watched Hakushin as he made some shelter and she joined him. Jin did as well and he actually liked the ningen holy man. The two dragons went to hunt and Asuna settled down between the two males and slept.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She was in a dead sleep and she was roused by a jerking on her leg. Asuna opened her eyes slowly and she could see a shadowy being. She narrowed her eyes sleepily and she realized it was Yhea. It was the Yhea from this era and she realized he must feel the binding. She ported to the forest and he became corporeal.
 
“Who are you?” He demanded.
 
“Does it matter? I know you obviously Yhea. I also know you are Jing so have no pretenses with me.” She said staring at him.
 
“You have come through the eras. I see.” He said fascinated.
 
“Hai. Kamis you are a dandy.” She said snorting softly.
 
“Excuse me? Dandy?” He asked irritated.
 
“Hai. Look at your finery Shouten. You look almost frilly.” She laughed softly.
 
“Who are we to each other?” Yhea demanded.
 
“I am bound to you. You are bound to me. Deal with it.” Asuna shrugged.
 
He circled the pretty woman and she was enticing. She moved suddenly and she actually pinned him to a tree. She held his jaw and his eyes widened. She licked at his lips and he was surprised.
 
“Poor Yhea. You lament what you do not have.” She said teasing him.
 
“Excuse me?” He asked in anger.
 
She was palming his manhood through his old style ku and he gasped a little. Her smile widened and she jerked his lips to hers. He groaned loudly as she invaded his mouth and she made sure to tease his tongue and run hers all along his hard palate and fangs. He snarled loudly and he traded places with her. He tried to dominate the lip lock but she was making short work of it. She undid his ebony hair and it fell about his shoulders. He ripped his lips from hers and she in turn sank his fangs into his throat.
 
“Oh Gods! You are succubus.” He hissed in euphoria.
 
She made a gurgling sound and released his artery. He was panting and she knew he had come. His chest was heaving and she had a soft smirk on her face.
 
“You want more do you not? I imagine you want to have me from within. Take us somewhere very private and take me.” She said with red eyes.
 
“My Gods you are such a woman.” He said in a trance.
 
He jerked her to him and he phased them out to Hueco Mundo. They fell back on the sand as she was brutally tearing at his clothes.
 
“Are we lovers?” He asked in a daze.
 
“You could say that. You were very pissed at me because I am married to Eyal. Do not make that face. I know you and I know all your wicked deeds. I also know how you had to survive. There you are.” She said brazenly as she stroked his stiffened flesh.
 
His eyes fluttered shut and he shamelessly thrust. She smirked as she yanked his head down by the back of the neck. She was letting herself be somewhat brutal with him but Yhea was not soft even though he was rather self involved. She coaxed him into coupling in his ether form and she was breathless. She missed her Shouten and this was decadent in her mind. Yhea became corporeal again after some time and he was shaking in the sublime and from what he had seen. He collapsed beside her and she was lightly snoring. This woman was a match for him and he roused her gently.
 
“Tired Yhea.” She mumbled.
 
“You are shielding what era we are bound.” He said in a low growl.
 
“Things cannot change.” Asuna stated sleepily.
 
“Yet you are married to the one other being that I have adored for so long?” He asked narrowing his eyes.
 
“Yhea shut up and some things need to remain unsaid.” She stated as her eyes opened.
 
“How dare you.” He growled.
 
“I know your real father's name is Shan Lao and you are the half brother to Jing Lei Shi. Now shut up.” She snapped.
 
Yhea's face drained of color and she knew everything. She snuggled up to him and he was astonished. He was truly like so many of the Jing clan and he was one that went for the inner being of a person. This woman was spectacular and she growled at his thoughts. She proceeded to join them and he lost all coherent thought.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
She had sworn Yhea to secrecy and he made her swear not to get herself killed; he had informed he liked living. She had laughed and she liked him a lot she realized. When she had forgiven she had no clue but she was back with her group. She could also feel Lei and she was being followed by him. He thought he was being so clever but she had news for him. He was young in this era and she was enjoying his game of cat and mouse. She masked herself totally and she was sitting in a tree. He became corporeal and he was searching. She hid her smile and marveled at his beauty. Pure lust ripped through her and her feelings for this being were strong. They were almost what she felt Naraku and she ported behind him. She grasped his shoulders and he stiffened.
 
“Hello Shouten. Looking for someone?” She purred in his ear.
 
“I want to know why I feel bound!” He growled.
 
“Because you are bound.” Asuna said whispering in his ear.
 
“To a woman?” Lei scoffed.
 
“Hai to me. I assure when we are mated and married that you enjoy our time. I also assure you that it has pleased me to see you be yourself.” She stated suggestively in his ear.
 
A shudder went down his spine and he was surprised but he was reacting to her.
 
“Who are you?” He growled.
 
“I am your wife and your lover. I am the mother to your son and daughter. You want another child from me but you are waiting till we are able to stop the tr'Awnhi.” Asuna purred as she licked along his throat.
 
“Different era? You are my wife?” He asked suddenly groaning.
 
“Hai. I am Asuna Orlovich-Jing.” She nipped at his ear.
 
Asuna was mentally wrapping herself up in him and she was giving him familiar pleasure to facilitate his listening. She wanted him desperately and she wanted him desperate but this was a time where he was not very disposed toward onna.
 
“Wicked.” He moaned loudly.
 
“Hai. If you let me; I want to make you scream.” Asuna moaned in his ear.
 
“Why?” He said trying to focus.
 
“Because I love you. I adore you so much and I know who this man is. I want to worship you as you deserve.” She murmured.
 
She dipped into his mind and she ported them to Hadasan. She pushed him back onto his bed and his mind was foggy. She managed to strip and he was actually watching her. Asuna's eyes were red and he was again enveloped in rapture.
 
“Can you phase your clothes off? I am fixing to rip them off of you.” She growled low.
 
“Gods what are you doing to me?” He rasped.
 
“Taking you.” Came her lust filled tone.
 
He phased his clothes away and she was suddenly at his throat and she was drinking of him. He cried out loudly and he had never once wanted to be with a woman. He felt her lips and teeth nipping and sucking along his corporeal flesh and it was making him burn. He was so aroused and he was rock hard. He felt her mouth go around his stones and he gasped.
 
“Oh Gods who taught you this?” He hissed out in a passion filled tone.
 
She stroked her thoughts to his and she was going to make him wait. She loved to feel him culminate as it was a rush. She slid him deeply down her throat and he yelled out. Lei was gripped in the mental and physical as she was ruthless. Asuna sucked and licked him until he was going to explode and she stopped. He let out a yelp in disbelief and she slid up his body.
 
“Kiss me.” She demanded.
 
Lei attacked her mouth and rolled them. She adored his kisses as they made her weak. She guided him to her center and jerked his hips forward. He groaned so loudly that it was startling. He pulled his lips away for a moment and he was breathing hard.
 
“I am mated to you. I feel it.” He said in a lilting tone.
 
“Oh Kamis Lei. Please! Hard.” She begged.
 
He snapped his hips hard to fulfill both of their need. They continued to moan and cry as they began to be dragged into their soul forms. The brilliant finish ended with them both corporeal and blacked out.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////
She woke up and Lei was passed out beside her. She lightly ran her claws along his belly and he came to. He stared over at her. The joining had been other worldly almost and he stared at her akin to awe.
 
“This was something.” He said gently.
 
“It always is. I love you Lei.” She murmured sleepily.
 
“How do you and I?” Lei asked blushing.
 
“No matter and in fact you need forget this. I just could not resist taking my husband.” She yawned.
 
“I have never been with and this was…” He stated staring at her.
 
“I know. I know everything. I must go my darling. Be safe.” She said kissing him.
 
He tangled his fingers in her hair and kissed her back. Asuna slowly pulled away and he watched her dress. Lei had managed to see a few things when they had joined in his true form. It was hazy but he knew love. She looked back at him and smiled.
 
“Please try and forget this.” She said softly.
 
“Why? Why would I want to forget this?” He asked lying on his hands.
 
He was still quite naked and he was comfortable with his own skin. He was watching her and she was suppressing the urge to just ravish him silly. He could see much on her face and it amazed him. She looked hungry and he breathed deeply.
 
“You truly enjoy me.” He said in a heady whisper.
 
“Hai.” She stated in desire.
 
“Never thought I would enjoy a woman so much.” Lei stated as he ran a hand down his belly.
 
“You intend to make me want more? I assure you I want more.” Asuna stated with a soft growl.
 
“How much woman? How much do you want?” He asked with a slight smirk.
 
He was in a mood and she watched him raptly as he began to pleasure himself as she watched. Lei found himself more aroused with her perusal and it made him inflamed.
 
“I want to hear you Lei. Please voice your pleasure.” She said leaning against the doorway.
 
His eyes were clouded over and he did release a throaty moan. Asuna could not stand it and she was instantly beside him. She invaded his mouth as he worked his own flesh and she would not let up on the battling tongues. He was groaning softly as they passionately connected. He could feel pressure building in his groin and he bit into her tongue. Her blood made him swoon and he erupted. She finally released his lips and he was gasping as he finished. He watched his future mate and wife lean down and lave her tongue all along his belly and thighs and he was astonished.
 
“Please tell me I am in your bed everyday.” He said in a rapt whisper.
 
“We manage when we can.” Asuna replied honestly.
 
“You are uppyr but you can join in a true wraith joining?” He asked astonished.
 
“Hai. Mmm Lei I would stay here all day and make you weak till you could not move but I have issues. I am back to help my family. Kamis know I love you so damn much.” She said brushing his ebony hair out of his face.
 
“Nice to be loved. This is incredible.” He mumbled sleepily.
 
“I have to go Lei. Damn you sexy wraith.” She mumbled.
 
He chuckled loudly and she ran her tongue up his belly to his chest and he moaned. He decided he could handle this woman easily and he could handle her immense appetites. She was gone and he was stunned. He had managed to copulate with a complete stranger and enjoy the hell out of it.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
They were in Britain and it was chilled. They were in the bluffs that overlooked the Atlantic Ocean and Ryukotsusei had a sneer on his beautiful face. Asuna was suitably impressed with the Dragon lord. It was obvious how much he adored Akemi and she stood next to him.
 
“You are a good man Ryukotsusei.” She said staring straight ahead.
 
“Touga did not think so.” He said under his breath.
 
“Your father started crap with Lord Akinori and the Western inu did as many terrible things to your people too. I have come to know that Akinori was blood thirsty and wanted power. You and Touga were honorable sons doing what they thought was honorable. You both were told to hate the other and you did.” She said staring at the setting sun.
 
“I wish I had not ended your life as Sorami. You were innocent but I was filled with such wrath.” He stated uncomfortably.
 
“It was fate dragon. If it had not been you then it would have been someone else. I was not fated to live in that life long. I had not the yoki I do now or as I did when I was Ayana. My kumo self was my most powerful except for this one.” She stated bluntly.
 
“You are something Lady Asuna. I am honored to call you a member of my family.” The water dragon said bowing his head.
 
“Well Ryukotsusei there are things that shall happen that will shock you. Can you love a wyvern?” She asked.
 
“I can love an innocent but I will kill this bastard.” He snapped.
 
“Okay then. Let us go.” Asuna said walking toward Jin and Hakushin.
 
Ryukotsusei shook his head and his brother was quiet. Ryuu suffered and there was nothing he could do. He hated that Asuka had died and he felt helpless completely. His own sons were close and he adored them both. He watched his mate's cousin move with purpose and she was a mighty warrior. She was staring off and she looked back.
 
“Ryukotsusei what would you say if we killed two birds with one stone?” She asked.
 
“What do you mean?” He asked curiously.
 
“I am mated to a reptile as well. His name is Amedeo and he was the king of the black basilisk. He is missing and so is my son Justinus. I should like to perhaps go further in the past and try to attempt to find more Latin basilisk who may aid me in finding him.” She replied.
 
“You mated a basilisk? You are brave.” He said in astonishment.
 
“He is gentle most of the time.” Asuna laughed.
 
“Basilisk are legendary beasts Lady Asuna. They have a reputation of amazing yoki.” Ryuu piped up.
 
“I know there are different tribes and breeds just like with dragons and inu. Amedeo is not a terrible persona and I will find him and my son.” She said flatly.
 
“Then let us go into the past.” Ryukotsusei shrugged.
 
She nodded and she ported to Japan. She went in search of Juria and her way to the past.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Asuna sent Jin, Hakushin, and Ryuu to spy upon wyvern settlements and Ryukotsusei and she stood above the hills surrounding Rome.
 
“You are too pretty Lord Ryukotsusei.” She snorted softly.
 
“Excuse me?” He asked staring at her.
 
“Hai. I have always thought you a handsome dragon but I could not get over being killed by you.” Asuna laughed.
 
He turned red and she laughed more. Asuna walked away and she was scenting the air. He heard her growling and wondered what her superior inu senses picked up that he did not. He saw her hand extend and her fang appeared. She whirled around and she had clashed swords with something he had not seen.
 
“You!” She snarled.
 
“I knew there was something different about you when you had dinner with the consul.” Plinnius stated watching her.
 
“You are a daemon!” She said in shock.
 
“Yes. A very well hidden one I might add.” He said smashing his blade against hers.
 
“You bastard! I have done nothing to you.” She growled.
 
Asuna could now actually smell what he was and he was a hawk. She had never seen one look so ningen before and he moved with the grace of the bird of prey. She yelped as his claws caught her arm.
 
“Ryukotsusei! Get Jin.” She said suddenly very dizzy.
 
“Face me you sorry beast!” Ryukotsusei snarled.
 
“You are nothing. This woman has had the ear of the next emperor and I want to talk to her.” Plinnius stated and ported out with her.
 
Plinnius had short cropped curly brunette hair and his nose was sharp; he looked Latin and he narrowed his eyes at her. She noticed how truly avian they looked. Tsubasa was a sparrow hawk and looked more bird like then this man and he had to pick her up.
 
“What manner of immortal are you?” He demanded.
 
“Canine and uppyr.” She said in pain.
 
“My claws carry a bacterium. You will live if you answer my questions.” He said with a cruel smirk.
 
“You bastard!” She snarled.
 
“We have evolved in these lands to appear human. I will not have my existence blown open by a foreign whore!” He said dropping her on a chaise.
 
“I had no intentions!” Asuna growled.
 
“You are here! You do not even look human.” He snapped.
 
“I am looking for my husband and son!” She snapped.
 
“Who is your husband? Trajan? Arrogant human.” Plinnius said snapping his fang like teeth.
 
“Amedeo and Justinus.” She snapped.
 
“You yoked yourself to a serpent?” He asked suddenly curious.
 
“Hai. I know you know of the Black basilisk. There is obviously more youkai here then originally thought. I just want my son and his sire.” She growled rather loudly.
 
“Let me ask you, is the Consul a good fuck? I saw what you did in that hall.” He said leaning in.
 
Up closer his features were obviously of his avian heritage. He was actually handsome but still sinister looking. Bird youkai and especially bird of prey youkai were not out in the open and they could be vicious.
 
“I will kill you in ways you can only imagine if you do not remove this toxin now!” She said growling loudly.
 
“Or what puppy? You think I am afraid on one lone dog bitch?” He said sneering.
 
She waved her arm and he was thrown backwards but he righted himself. He was on her again and he pinned her.
 
“I am a Roman senator and not without power or influence. Your fuck toy gets on my last nerve. You convince the consul to vote my way and I may do as you ask.” He said smirking almost cruelly.
 
“Go to Hades and fuck yourself bird boy.” She said spitting in his face.
 
He grabbed her jaw and stared at her face. She had a full mouth and small nose but she did not look human at all. He was amused at her brazenness and he decided to send Trajan a message.
 
“You are going to be fun.” He said jerking away from her.
 
“You are a fool if you think I will influence Trajan any way.” She growled.
 
“Well I see you are pregnant with little beasts and they will succumb to a fever before you will. Think really hard on that.” Plinnius stated as he jerked away.
 
She watched him leave the room and she looked around at the grand villa and was furious.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////
Trajan was staring at the tablet and he was in disbelief. Plinnius plainly told him he had his lover and if he wanted her death on his hands then he would vote his conscious.
 
“Septimius!” Trajan bellowed.
 
“Consul?” His guard said coming in.
 
“I am going to Senator Plinnius's villa and I want my best men.” He said in a fury.
 
The head of his guard watched the Roman Consul Trajan head to his rooms and proceed to put on his bronze armor and very shortly they left to see the rich and very influential senator. Trajan could not fathom why Asuna was here and he was furious with the puny bastard for threatening him and her. He had a mind to contact Nerva and have the cretin arrested. They reached the villa shortly and Trajan was escorted in. Plinnius was in his senatorial robes and he smirked at the bastard human and he waited.
 
“How dare you threaten a woman who has my protection?” He snapped.
 
“Oh Consul please. We both know she is not human and you are an idiot if you do not know. The female is a luscious daemon and so am I. Now your matters of heart really do not concern me but your vote does. You do my will and she will live. If not my poison will slowly kill her and that of her unborn.” He said smirking.
 
“You bastard!” Trajan roared.
 
“Shall you like to see her?” Plinnius said smirking.
 
Trajan was itching to kill the scrawny bastard and he followed the daemon. He had suspected but never knew for sure. He was brought into an opulent room and Asuna was obviously in a fever. He yelled and went to her side and stared at Plinnius in hatred.
 
“How can you do this? She is not from here and she has nothing to do with our politics!” He yelled out.
 
“She is a daemon and she parades herself here in Rome. There are many of us Consul. We hide our true natures simply because you humans are like rabbits! She will not come here and destroy my existence nor will you thwart me.” He said laughing.
 
“Fine! You have my vote you hellish beast.” Trajan said shaking in rage.
 
“Good Consul. I knew you would be reasonable.” He said nearing the feverish woman.
 
Trajan had to move aside and Plinnius moved over her and lowered his mouth. He tasted the wound and he could taste the powerful power that laced her blood. He had no true clue as to her powers but she tasted awesome. He made a noise and licked at the wound. He sucked hard and he could taste his toxin and her blood. He shut his bird like eyes and he suppressed a savage groan. He pulled back and he clenched his jaw. He had not counted on her being an addictive like drug.
 
“She will stay here until after the vote Consul and your presence offends me.” He said with a cocky smirk.
 
The room was suddenly filled with burly guards with nasty broad swords and Trajan realized they too were daemons.
 
“If harm comes to her there will be no hovel you will hide in or palace that will shield you Plinnius. I swear this to you.” He said in a tremendous snarl.
 
“Whatever. Leave.” He chuckled.
 
Trajan was firmly escorted out of the villa and Plinnius looked at the dog-uppyr hybrid. He called on some water and he lifted her up himself. She opened her fevered eyes and stared at him weakly.
 
“He is seeing my way. He must be in love with you. What is it like to fuck a mortal? Do you have to keep your claws to yourself?” Plinnius asked in contempt.
 
“You are unworthy to speak to me. You have no honor and you are self inflated prick.” She said in an exhausted tone.
 
“What is honor in this world woman? You oriental daemons are idiots.” He scoffed.
 
He made her drink water and she was exhausted and he set the cup down.
 
“How is the rutting between a serpent and a mammal? Is it even possible?” Plinnius asked in a nasty tone.
 
“You are filthy. I hate birds of prey.” She snarled.
 
“Oh I assure you we are not overly fond of you all either. Arrogant pests.” He said with angry eyes.
 
She was weak and she looked away from him. She noticed she had no clothes on and she stared at him in annoyance.
 
“You are offended? You are rather striking and it was a pleasure to taste your blood.” He said narrowing his eyes.
 
“What manner of avian are you?” She snapped.
 
“Oh well I am a white tailed eagle. Does that surprise you? We are quite evolved you know.” He said as he stood.
 
She narrowed her eyes and she was shocked to see him undo his toga.
 
“What in the Kamis name are you doing?” She hissed.
 
“I am going to rest and you are in my bed.” Plinnius smirked.
 
He was lean but his body was covered in tribal type tattoos. Half of his chest was covered in black ink and her eyes were wide. She actually turned red that she was looking at him and he looked down at her.
 
“If I allow my hair to grow it is white as well.” He stated watching her.
 
“You are an ass and you disgust me.” Asuna hissed.
 
He grabbed her hand and guided it to his groin. It was soft and felt like down. She gasped and looked up at him.
 
“I have not lost all my daemon nature now have I? I would think that bedding a mortal would be a trying experience.” He said in a harsh whisper.
 
“Why do you wish this vote?” She demanded.
 
“Because it keeps my pockets lined and gives more public lands into my clan's hands. There will be hunting and places where we can be ourselves.” He admitted.
 
“You need not force Trajan's hands!” She cried.
 
“He is plebian at heart. He cares for the mortal masses and I could not give a mound of horse's manure about the fucking, filthy humans.” He sneered in anger.
 
She realized he represented youkai intolerance of humanity at its best and she was ashamed to say at one time she held a similar opinion. She realized he was pressing his lean frame against her and she growled loudly. He held a predatory smirk as he watched her.
 
“I might as well enjoy a fellow daemon why you are here.” Plinnius stated as he rubbed her nub.
 
She growled in anger but there was intenseness on his face as he rubbed her clit with his member.
 
“You touch me and you will regret it.” She threatened.
 
“You think I would be such a brute as to rape you? Oh please. You flatter yourself.” He stated.
 
Plinnius leaned over and took her mouth. She started to snarl but he caught her in deep caress that startled her. He held himself up by his arms as he pushed inside of her. She choked into the kiss and he continued the osculation. It was slow and sensual as he took what he wished and she ripped her lips from his.
 
“You bastard!” Asuna gasped.
 
“Why is that?” He demanded in a darkly passionate tone.
 
“I do not want this.” She said groaning.
 
“But I do.” He stated as he attacked her mouth again.
 
She was still weak but she surged her yoki through her hands and he was slammed against a marble wall. Asuna moved slowly and grabbed a sheet to wrap around her and she ported to Trajan's rooms in his villa. The Consul of the Roman Empire was up in an instant and held onto her. She was shivering badly and he guided her to his bed. She fell back in exhaustion and she stared at him with fevered eyes.
 
“He intended to slate his lust. I slammed him against his wall and ported.” She said wrapping up in a fur blanket.
 
“Are you in this era alone Asuna?” He asked quickly.
 
“I sent Lord Ryukotsusei to get Jin. Jin is a lover.” She stated.
 
He nodded and he went to Septimius. He ordered his villa guarded heavily and he went back to her.
 
“I need to send a message to Nerva. This bastard is trying to push me into giving up massive tracts of land that should go to veterans.” He said calmly.
 
“He wants the land for his clans and the riches they will provide. He is shrewd and has learned the politics of the mortals well.” She said softly.
 
“Consul? There is a man with white hair and another with short brown hair asking for her majesty.” Septimius stated.
 
“Let them in.” He said assuredly.
 
Asuna and Trajan waited several minutes and the dragon and Panyu lords appeared. Asuna struggled to sit up and Jin sat next to her and helped her up. He felt her head and he hissed.
 
“Mortal! Can you send for a doctor please?” Jin snapped.
 
“You speak Latin?” Asuna asked dumbly.
 
“I speak as many or more languages then you my dear. You are burning up! What did you tangle with?” He asked softly in inu.
 
“A hawk youkai.” She said shivering violently.
 
“Lord Jin, she needs to have that fever lowered. My mate does some healing and she would submerge her in water.” Ryukotsusei commented.
 
“Roman do you have a pool perhaps?” He demanded.
 
“Yes. Follow me please.” He said standing.
 
Jin picked up the mother of his pup and followed the Roman consul out of the room and they entered a large pool. Jin took off the sheet and proceeded to submerge her in the warm water and he was fully clothed. Trajan gave them privacy and there was a ruckus outside. She heard Japanese being spoken and Jin looked surprised.
 
“Do not touch me!” She heard from a strange voice.
 
“You cannot go in there!” Septimius yelled.
 
“Watch me.” The rich male voice said.
 
Jin began growling and he shielded her with his body. A young inu stepped in and he had black hair and very dark amber eyes. Pale magenta stripes adorned his cheeks and his black hair was down. His eyes looked rimmed in kohl as he stared down the Panyu lord.
 
“Minkah?” Asuna asked in a hushed tone.
 
“Yes Mother. I swear if another bullish bastard gets in my way I will kill them.” He said with narrowed eyes.
 
“What the hell?” She asked standing behind Jin.
 
“I am here. I will leave to give you time to bathe and dress but by Ra I need to speak with you.” He said quitting the bathing room.
 
“That man is one of your sons?” Jin asked in shock.
 
“Hai.” She said in awe.
 
“I have never felt such a creature.” He said shocked.
 
She bathed and the basilisk servant put her in a stolla. She went back to Trajan's rooms and Minkah was reclining on a seat. His general air was one of refinery and she was in shock how much he acted like Anupu. Minkah stared at her and smiled warmly.
 
“I have been following you at my father's request.” He stated bluntly.
 
“Again I had no hand in your upbringing and I am going to rip Narmer apart!” She hissed.
 
“No, Mother you will not and yes, you did help raise me. It will hurt your head to think about it but just know I know you.” He shrugged.
 
“How long have you been following me? Kizaki said you have been lurking.” She said angry.
 
“On and off for a few months. I have been avoiding Anupu. I know how he feels about my beautiful and wonderful mother. He was furious when Father named you as a minor goddess.” He shrugged again.
 
“He did what?” She asked stunned.
 
“Because you were absent at times and your coloring; he claimed you were a goddess and I am the son of a deity.” He smirked.
 
“Narmer!” She hissed.
 
“It is no big thing. I promise you. Anupu is deified as Anubis.” Minkah smiled.
 
“Do not smile!” She growled.
 
“Why?” He asked puzzled.
 
“Look in a mirror.” She said in a pissy tone.
 
Minkah was sinfully gorgeous and the basilisk female was openly gawking at him. Jin was amused by the young inu and it was certain he was her son. His chest was bare and he had some hieroglyphs tattooed on and she pointed at them.
 
“What are those?” She demanded.
 
“Why they are prayers Mother. I know you read Egyptian.” He snorted.
 
“You will return to your era and not venture forth again! The Shouten are running around as well as the wyvern.” She said clenching her teeth.
 
“No mam.” Minkah said stubbornly.
 
Jin burst out laughing and she growled at him. Minkah crossed his arms and gave her a look. Trajan was shocked to see such a being and it was obvious the young man was royalty.
 
“You are stuck with me. Sorry Mother, really I am but you have a devoted pup that adores the ground on which you stand and worships your meanness.” He said grinning.
 
She was furious and she was sick. Narmer had been high handed and her son was so much like her that it made her head spin. She got really furious when another maid servant was radiating lust. She whipped her head around and growled.
 
“He is my son whore!” She hissed.
 
The ningen female was actually terrified at seeing red eyes and the beastly tone. Minkah stood up and grabbed her shoulders.
 
“Mother, do not scare the humans!” He said almost amused.
 
She snapped her fangs and he knew she was furious.
 
“I am going to help punish the wyvern. If we run into some Shouten then all the better.” He grinned.
 
“You have been to the modern era.” She said floored.
 
“Yes. Now my beautiful and wonderful mother let me help you and stop bitching.” He smiled then hugged her.
 
“Oh and I am going to help search for basilisks. I can scent them really well.” He said tapping his nose.
 
“I do not understand all this. I feel I have lost you and Kizaki.” She said looking down.
 
“Let me say that Kazaki and I know you well. We also see the wisdom of being in the past. The Shouten could not get to us and honestly Mother…we are strong. We are really strong. Things are going to start changing soon.” Minkah said.
 
The Egyptian prince was eyeing the basilisk female and he intended to question her. She was pretty but his tastes ran more toward naked Egyptian handmaidens. His mother slapped him on his head and he chuckled.
 
“Sorry Mom.” He said grinning at her.
 
“You are too much look Anupu.” She hissed.
 
“About Anupu. When you return to your home era you need to fix it with him.” He said in Egyptian.
 
“I will.” She said hugging her son.
 
“Oh and my two sisters are awesome!” He said pointing to her belly.
 
Things were strange to her and she knew she had not heard the last from Plinnius.

The vote was thwarted and Asuna was on the island of Sardinia. The hills were rocky and they were desolate. The basilisk female was not old and she had confessed that she only knew of her family. She was a yellow basilisk and Asuna was surprised.
 
“I know the legends of the great rex but they are just stories right??” She asked surprised.
 
“No they are very much true Juilia. I know Amedeo well.” She said looking around.
 
“If there are basilisks in hibernation; these hills are perfect.” Juilia stated.
 
Asuna nodded and she went deep inside a volcano that may have been active but she did not sense anything. Juilia was behind her as they went deeper into the rocky earth. They eventually came upon a scene that shocked even the inu princess. There was three massive black basilisk and they all were balled up around each other.
 
“I have never seen a black.” She said in whisper.
 
“Damnit Gabrielus was with Amedeo too. They look big like males.” Asuna said nearing them.
 
“I do not know how to wake them.” Juilia commented.
 
“Warmth. We would need to warm them up and Minkah is a hell hound.” She replied with a grin.
 
“Brilliant.” The head servant of Trajan said.
 
Asuna closed her eyes and Minkah ported in. He whistled and he grinned at his lovely mother. He gently pressed his hands to the scales of one massive beast. It was a slow leaching of his yoki and Asuna watched in amazement.
 
“You should see the fireballs.” He grinned at her.
 
“You spent too much time with Shezmu.” She snorted.
 
“No actually Ahmose.” He laughed.
 
“That explains it.” Asuna stated rolling her eyes.
 
The basilisk heard the tongue of the Egyptians and slowly lifted his head. There were two mammalian daemons and one basilisk female. He blinked reptilian eyes and jerked his head to really look at the mammals.
 
“Who are you?” He demanded in Latin.
 
“Who are you?” Asuna replied.
 
“Fabius.” He lisped.
 
“I am Asuna and I am acquainted with Amedeo. I would like it if you changed form and we talked.” She said softly.
 
Fabius narrowed his eyes at the mammal and he immediately changed form. He was nude but she did not bat an eyelash at his state and Minkah ported out. She chuckled at her son and shook her head.
 
“You speak my rex's name.” He said with a heavy voice.
 
“You need warmth and I shall see to it. Juilia can you stay here for now and I will return. Trajan has said it was alright.” Asuna stated.
 
“Yes my lady.” Juilia bowed.
 
Asuna reached for the cold basilisk and she ported them to the volcanic onsen in Japan. Fabius felt glorious heat and he snarled out as it slowly seeped into his skin.
 
“I know Gabrielus, Adrastus, and Amedeo.” She said as she settled on the side of the onsen.
 
“Well you know three powerful and influential men amongst the Latin basilisk.” He said watching her.
 
“Okay you are being difficult.” She said sighing.
 
“The last I knew of my brother; he was off ripping heads off of red basilisk and wyvern for the murder of his family. He ordered me and the others into hibernation.” Fabius said watching the mammal.
 
“You are Amedeo's brother?” She asked shocked.
 
“Si.” He nodded.
 
He was solid black and she lifted her nose. He was only a half brother and that made her curious. He watched the female and she was ripe.
 
“You are something.” He said tasting the air.
 
“I am half empusae and half cane.” Asuna replied.
 
He was out of the water and on her in a second. He had raw, brute strength and he had her pinned. She was snarling in anger and he was running his tongue along her neck.
 
“What are you doing?” She yelled.
 
“You tell me you are a succubus and you expect me to not taste you?” He said in a lusty tone.
 
“I am Amedeo's wife!” She hissed.
 
He pulled back and stared down at her. He knew exactly what succubus was and a small smile spread on his chiseled face.
 
“You mean Amedeo is one of your husbands.” He said grinning seductively.
 
“Hai. He is one of my mates.” She said growling softly.
 
“You can smell I am his half brother. His mother was a red basilisk.” He said watching her.
 
“Red?” She asked surprised.
 
“Si. Beautiful creature she was and our sire was mad about her they say. She died in childbirth. My mother was just a common black. Amedeo was special.” He said smirking.
 
“I guess I should have realized.” She said shaking her head.
 
“Si. Now you look nothing like Valentina.” He said turning her jaw to the side.
 
“I have seen her in his memories. She was lovely and his children were lovely.” Asuna said getting bothered by his nearness.
 
“Yes. She was a lovely creature our little mixed queen. She had wyvern, basilisk, and mammal in her. Amedeo loved her lovely assests.” He said as he licked along her throat again.
 
“Stop.” She said with a quivering voice.
 
“You are mammal wholly.” Fabius replied suddenly ripping open the stolla she wore.
 
“I need heat and you have it. You are also with child.” He said staring at her belly.
 
“You are his brother!” She growled.
 
“Si. Who else should posses you in his absence?” He asked.
 
“I said no.” She growled rather loudly.
 
“Tsk tsk.” He said as he cut his throat.
 
She hissed and he forcefully guided her to his throat. She made such a sound and he felt her fangs sink deeply. He made a viperish noise as all manner of rushes coursed through him. He rasped out loudly as heat rushed through him. He knew if he took her blood then he would be her slave and he fought off years of instincts.
 
“Where is my brother pray tell?” He managed to ask.
 
She pulled away from his drugging blood and her eyes were red. She was in a raging lust now and he knew she would be. She was snarling terribly and he found the sight erotic.
 
“Do not know.” She said in a low growl.
 
“You inner beast is stirred si?” Fabius asked mesmerized.
 
“Hai!” She growled loudly.
 
“So Amedeo is missing and you are looking for clues as to where he may be? Did you know that Amedeo was such a whore in his youth? He would take several women a night and sometimes all at the same time?” He practically purred.
 
“I am no pious creature but I do try and have standards.” Asuna said fighting off her hormones.
 
“He was an exhibitionist you know. Loved to do all manner of wicked things to his lovers. He would make them orgasm so much that they would loose consciousness.” He stated staring at her full breasts.
 
“I have seen in his memories many things Fabius. I am not a moron. I am a succubus. Do you and Amedeo have a rivalry?” She demanded.
 
“Si. He was only older then me by a year and a half but I am his loyal subject. He would wish me to take his wife though.” He said cupping her breasts.
 
“No, he would not. He gets jealous.” Asuna said squirming.
 
He hauled himself off and he was amazed that they both controlled their lusts. She pulled her stolla up and he perused her ripe and mammalian form. He found this female quite delectable and he stretched to get his muscles working.
 
“Who were the other two males?” She asked as her eyes faded back to her gold-brown color.
 
“They are members of the Servius tribe. It is only Amedeo and I of my father's children left.” He stated standing.
 
“Adelphia is alive and I have given Amedeo a son he named Justinus.” She replied.
 
“You managed to birth him a son? How was that?” He asked curiously.
 
“He is basilisk who does not need to sun himself.” Asuna shrugged.
 
“Well that is handy.” He said narrowing his eyes.
 
“Can you help us find the others? I also am fixing to fight Drostan.” She said standing.
 
“A woman fight? Are you insane?” Fabius asked in shock.
 
“Put away your chauvinistic self Lord Fabius but I am a warrior as well as princess. I am my sire's heir and I am not just a plaything for men.” She snapped.
 
“No men are just your playthings.” He scoffed.
 
“You are an ass.” She growled and she stared at his gorgeous body.
 
“Well you have such a way. It is obvious you find this body pleasing and you say no.” He said almost miffed.
 
“You are angry that I tell you no?” Asuna asked in sudden laughter.
 
“I am not blind mammal. I know that most consider me beautiful. You think my brother is more so?” He asked as his reddened eyes perused her.
 
“I think I have a history with Amedeo now and you are someone new. Now you can help me find your elder brother and your rex or stay here to brood at not getting any.” She said in a temper.
 
He knew without a doubt that Amedeo was mad about this woman. Female flesh was always his brother's weakness. Fabius was impressed and she ported them back into the shadows of Trajan's villa. She procured him a tunic and she was feeling spiritual pressure. Trajan was angry and she followed the power she felt. He was in a meeting with representatives of Plinnius. She slowly came into the room and she could see just a faint blue that was around him. He did not seem aware of it and she came to stand beside him.
 
“Get out!” He hissed.
 
“This is not over Consul. Senator Plinnius is most put out.” The avian said.
 
“I said get out. If I say it again then you will be dead.” He stated in a flat growl.
 
“Plinnius says watch your back woman. You will see him again.” The other youkai said sneering.
 
“Tell him it will be at the end of my fang as I slide it into his gut. Leave.” She said raising her chin.
 
The white tailed eagles left and Trajan was pacing. She watched him and the way he held his shoulders was reminiscent of his other existence.
 
“This is causing you issue and I am sorry. I shall leave if it will help.” She said gently.
 
“I have no wish for you to leave. What is this thing I am feeling?” He asked in a tortured tone.
 
“It is called spiritual pressure. You have an abundance and it is probably why you end up a shinigami.” She shrugged.
 
“What is this Soul Society like?” He asked looking outside.
 
“It is calm mostly. The inhabitants are all spirit beings who can take physical form. Souls can be reborn and lives led. It is not a horrible place.” Asuna said watching him.
 
“You said you know me.” Trajan stated.
 
“Hai I know you. When I am home, I seek you even if it is only to say hello. I will at least call to let you know I am around.” She said in a soft tone.
 
“I die and I become someone else.” He said in a hoarse tone.
 
“What you are and who this is gone but you are still the same soul. The way you are and what you are does not change.” She replied.
 
“You say I look similar?” Trajan asked.
 
“You look much like you do now. You have silver hair.” She said running her hand through his close cropped coiffe.
 
“I am a warrior you said.” He demanded.
 
“Hai.” She nodded.
 
“My name?” He asked wanly.
 
“Kensei.” She said cupping his cheeks.
 
“That is not Latin.” He said surprised.
 
“It is Japanese. I suspect you have been alive more then just this life Trajan. I suspect you have another life in Japan between this one and your time in Soul Society.” Asuna said considering.
 
“So this is my first life you think? I do not understand the whole idea of living more then once.” Trajan stated shaking his head.
 
“Some souls choose to be reborn. Some choose to live out their existences in Soul Society. I apparently liked living on the physical plane.” She stated as she ran her hand on his shoulder.
 
“So this occasional flare I feel is this spiritual pressure?” He asked closing his eyes.
 
She nodded and he felt overwhelmed. The idea that he did not remember was crushing to him but the idea of living on was comforting too. He realized he could do as he needed and he nodded slowly.
 
“I am well Asuna. Perhaps it is well I do not remember. I think you need leave. If you like; I shall send scouts to start looking for more basilisks. Juilia has told me what she is and I think she can help me figure out which of those I know are actually daemons.” He said.
 
“Lord Ryukotsusei and Lord Ryuu will wish to find the wyvern. May they stay and I will return? Why is it you wish me to go?” She asked.
 
“I want to deal with Plinnius politically but I need you away so he cannot harm you. You are vulnerable whilst you carry your unborn.” Trajan said gently.
 
“Sound thinking.” She said in a sigh.
 
“Leave your holy man here and the two dragons and I will see to it they are assisted. Please return until your girls are born.” He said cupping her face.
 
“Okay.” She nodded.
 
He stood by stoically and finally he nodded to her and left the room. She stood there contemplating many things and she knew to return.

She was in Karakura Town at the moment and she was staring at the warehouse. She sighed and she knocked on the barrier. Shinji opened it and he grinned when he saw her. She smiled too and he stepped aside.
 
“Long time no see.” He stated with a grin.
 
“Hai. Is Kensei here?” She asked.
 
“You didn't like just call him?” Shinji asked surprised.
 
“No, I wanted to surprise him.” Asuna said softly.
 
She followed Shinji down to the training grounds and she saw Kensei fighting Love. Her head ached with the knowledge she held and he felt her. He stopped his spar and he looked up. He nodded to her and she to him. He grabbed a rag and wiped his face and he moved up the steps to stare at her.
 
“When did you get back?” He asked bluntly.
 
“Literally just now. I would have called but I wished to see you.” Asuna said reaching out and brushing his cheek.
 
“You hungry? I can make some sashimi.” Kensei said.
 
“Hai.” She said taking his hand and porting them.
 
He automatically went to her kitchen and her throat ached. He looked up at her and something was off.
 
“Suna spill it. Seriously onna you look about ready to bust open.” He said watching her face.
 
“I am just happy to be here.” She stated looking away.
 
“Don't lie to me onna. I've gotten to know you pretty well.” He said bringing over the plate of sashimi.
 
He sat down on her couch and she sat next to him. He picked up some fish with chop sticks and proceeded to pop it in her mouth. He was being his normal, stoic self and she was reeling. She swallowed the food and she pulled his mouth to hers. He grunted but responded with abandon as her emotions were out of control. Kensei knew by her behavior that she had faced something and she was suddenly very out of control. She snarled and pushed him down and her face held something.
 
“Shit! What's going on?” He asked surprised.
 
“I know your ningen existence.” She said flatly.
 
“What?” He asked confused.
 
“I have met you in your ningen guise.” Asuna whispered in a beastly tone.
 
“Doesn't matter Suna. That was a different life and I don't remember.” He stated threading his fingers through her hair.
 
She fell upon him and the kiss was violently passionate. Combustion and fervor took over as they struggled out of their clothes. Kensei took the brunt of the short fall to the bamboo floor and he adjusted her on her side. They were both making loud moans and cries as he moved in her. It had been some time since they had been together and Kensei began an urgent thrusting and she was snarling rather loudly.
 
“Damn it!” He groaned out as his reiastu flared.
 
Their natural abilities once again melded and she screamed out and he released a guttural cry. He was shaking rather hard and he realized how intense this had been. Her eyes were closed and she was awash in his power.
 
“Onna what the hell's going on? This is awesome but tell me.” He demanded in a gruff tone.
 
“I am just happy to see you. I realized how much I missed your voice and your food.” She said smiling a little.
 
“Well you're home for the moment and I'll cook till you're stuffed. When you going slow down just a little?” He demanded.
 
“Kensei, I cannot stop.” Asuna sighed deeply.
 
“Yeah well you're going end up dropping these kids and then run off again. I'm cool with you're life but it tears me up that you might end up killed and I'm not there to back you up.” He growled in annoyance.
 
“I am thinking I need you to back me up.” She said sleepily.
 
“Well it's not like I'm facing Aizen at the moment so yeah I can back your butt up.” Kensei murmured as his hand splayed across her belly.
 
“I have missed you.” She said leaning her head back and kissing him.
 
His eyes slowly closed and he savored the taste of her lips and mouth as the passionate consumption took them both. He picked her up and took her to her bedroom up the stairs. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx
Naraku was tired from his personal life and he felt Asuna back. She passed in and out of time so much it left all reeling. He ported to her Karakura mansion and he walked along the hall. She was sleeping on her side and he realized she had been gone longer in the past then what she had here. He sat down on her bed and pressed his hand to her belly. He closed his eyes and he found it full of irony who shared her womb with his daughter. The tiny mind was caressing his and he felt her roll. Asuna slept soundly and he undressed slowly. He slipped into her bed and wrapped his arm around her middle. She murmured in her sleep and she had breathed his name. He had a smirk and even now she knew his aura. He suddenly sat up so fast and he saw a Shouten. Maec was staring at him in hatred and Asuna was not coming to.
 
“To think I get to kill you as I take her. This is a treat indeed.” Maec grinned madly.
 
“You think you can defeat me?” Naraku asked coldly.
 
Asuna was not coming to and she seemed still out of it. Naraku shook her quickly and was ready to port out with her.
 
“What did you do to her?” Maec snarled.
 
“Nothing!” Naraku said coolly back.
 
A tentacle erupted fully from Naraku and he pinned Maec into the wall. Naraku gently shook Asuna and she groaned a little.
 
“Koi! Damnit!” He hissed.
 
Maec took the opportunity to shred through the tentacle and Naraku hauled her into his lap. He was about to port when the Shouten ruler was behind him and he shoved his hand into his chest. Naraku's body began to absorb him and Maec was shocked. He managed to take back his hand and he realized this creature was more then dangerous. Everything happened in a matter of seconds and Naraku was swallowed by his miasma. Maec stared at the bed and there was a small puddle of blood. He could scent it and knew his sweet enemy was in danger.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////
Naraku had her on a gurney and he lifted her head up. Nobu came immediately as he saw his longtime friend panicked.
 
“Let's get her in a trauma room now.” Nobu said rolling the gurney.
 
“There was a bit of blood on the bed as well.” Naraku stated.
 
“Damn it!” Nobu snarled.
 
Naraku walked along as they brought her into the trauma room. His friend was assessing her and he was checking her vitals. Nanami came in and she had been fully changed into a succubus by Sebastein. She and Shinobu were both bitten empusae now and Nobu had been shattered. He preferred them alive in some manner but he had wept bitterly. She was assessing her mother and she lifted her nose.
 
“Chichi! She has some sort of pathogen in her.” She said leaning down.
 
“You can smell it?” Nobu asked surprised.
 
“Hai. It is different. The babes need to come out.” She said hurriedly.
 
They walked quickly toward the operating rooms and Naraku was sick to his stomach. He had no clue what she had faced yet again. He was going to demand she open her mind to him again and he could not handle not knowing. Nanami and Nobu had her prepped and ready within five minutes and they were scrubbing in. Nobu looked at his only daughter and realized she was a more brilliant doctor then he was. She had also openly come out to Ryuken when she been restored and told him she could not maintain normalcy. Her Quincy husband had been in shock. He had been shocked that she had been damn near killed. Nanami openly was mated to Jao and Ryuken now. Nanami was gowned and masked and Nobu was the same. His daughter had scalpel in hand and she cut straight down her mother's middle in a crash section. Naraku was pacing in the gallery. Nanami worked fast and she pulled out a silver haired pup first and she was blue. Shinobu was there and he took the tiny inu and began to bag the pup. Nanami pulled out another silver haired girl and Naraku leaned forward. His daughter looked almost identical to his mate. He was anxious but she began shrieking loudly. He could see the blue marks above her eyes but she had no other markings. Nanami handed off the babe to another pediatrician and he sighed in relief as he could hear her scream loudly.
 
“She looks good Chichi N.” Nanami said loudly.
 
“Thank Kamis. What about your Haha?” He asked.
 
“There is infection in here.” She said flatly.
 
Nobu could smell a blood infection now and he was surprised his daughter had caught the scent when she had. They got Asuna cleaned up and the afterbirth delivered. Nanami called for gentomyacin on board and they wheeled her to a private room. Shinobu was caring for the tiny inu pup that had begun to breathe and she opened brilliant blue eyes. Her big brother was captivated as she stared at him.
 
“Hi there. Hey little girl. I am Shinobu. I am your big brother.” He said rubbing her little cheek.
 
Naraku stiffened and he actually got red in the face when he felt Jin appear. He turned to stare at the Lord of the Panyu Inu and Jin stared at him.
 
“Hanyou.” Jin sneered.
 
“Oh Kamis.” Naraku snorted.
 
“Well your daughter and my daughter.” He chuckled.
 
“Stay out of my way mutt!” The dark hanyou growled.
 
“It is you who had better stay out of my way half breed.” Jin said as he looked down.
 
The mouth of the Panyu lord dropped open and he saw a tiny little girl pup. Shinobu held her up and he could see brilliant blue eyes of his house and the silver hair of the onna he loved. She bore his crest and her mother's marks. He gently touched the glass and he was shaking a little.
 
“Itsuyo.” Jin whispered.
 
Naraku had left to attend his own daughter and Asuna as Jin simpered over his pup. Naraku stepped into the room to see his babe and he picked her up. She stared at him with her mother's eyes and he was amazed. He realized he was also deeply smitten that second he saw her. He also was affected deeply by her conception the same as Mizuki's.
 
“Miku.” He whispered as he stared at his baby girl.
 
Asuna came to and she was wiped out she realized. She could see Naraku and he was holding a pup.
 
“What happened?” She asked confused.
 
“You have a bacterial infection. Explain how a youkai has a bacterial infection?” Naraku asked.
 
“I faced an eagle youkai.” She said weakly.
 
“Disgusting bird.” He said scowling.
 
“Where is her twin?” Asuna asked.
 
“Jin was slobbering all over himself; although I admit she is stunning. I have named her Miku my little inu. Look how beautiful she is.” Naraku said holding her up.
 
Asuna made a noise and she touched her baby's face. Her tiny girl was yawning and she had her silver hair. Jin made a noise in the doorway and walked in. Asuna saw her and she gasped a little. Itsuyo's eyes were as blue as Jin's. Naraku was obviously annoyed and the girls had managed to turn to look at the other.
 
“Kamis they are both so beautiful.” She said softly.
 
“She is gorgeous. What is her name half breed?” Jin asked.
 
“Mutt, I will gut you I swear.” The hanyou stated.
 
Jin chuckled and swooped down to passionately kiss the inu princess. He sat in a chair on the opposite side of the bed and held his pup close to him.
 
“You had better get used to me Naraku. I hear the twins in this family cannot be away from each other. I remember the boys. Hai, I am going to enjoy torturing you. Sesshomaru-sama and I are still fairly good friends.” He smirked widely.
 
“Jin!” Asuna growled softly.
 
“Let him Asuna. Let him be a prick. I will enjoy ripping his ass apart any chance I get.” Naraku said smirking maliciously.
 
Asuna rolled her eyes and both males were holding their babes possessively. She knew they were in for a rocky triangle and both males were about as strong willed as they came.

Yhea was sitting in the Jing mansion in Britain and he was brooding. He remembered his little encounter with Asuna in the past and she was coming around. She was also starting to care about him some and he wanted to try and wrestle her away from Lei. He had an intense rivalry with his elder brother and he found himself resenting him. He knew he could do something that would rock all of their worlds and he knew without a doubt it would piss Lei off. A grin passed Yhea's lips and he stood up.
 
“Father, I am going on reconscince.” He said aloud.
 
“Be wary of Astana please.” Shan Lao said gently.
 
“Oh I can handle them. Buh bye Lei.” Yhea stated being sarcastic.
 
“Kiss off jackass.” Lei hissed.
 
Yhea smirked and Lei did not like it. He was irritated with the absence of his wife. He was morose and he sighed. He watched his children play and watched his creep brother phase out.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ///////////////
He was in the past after having entered the slipstream. He wandered the war ravaged area and he sneered at the mortals. He knew of about where the male would be. He knew from her dreams what an individual he was. He wandered and he found the grounds that saw so many dead bodies and his stomach twisted in disgust at the waste. Blood was life and this was waste to him. He saw a head of hair that was similar to hers and he was surprised to see another male's head that was near the same color. He knelt down and became corporeal.
 
“You would bring her to me.” He whispered.
 
The tiger turned his head and he was in such severe pain at the moment. He could swear he was dead but he could see a man with dark hair and dark eyes.
 
“Who are you?” He rasped.
 
“I am Yhea and I am your savior. Who is that over there?” He demanded.
 
“My brother.” He coughed up blood.
 
“Well I see I should have to bring you both. You will be in pain but just a little longer.” The Shouten stated.
 
He touched both men and phased them into the in between slipstream. They were fading fast but Yhea would suspend them. He phased to Southern Mongolia and to where Jao was. The tiger watched the being weakly as he called for someone. Jao came forward and he was surprised to see corporeal youkai.
 
“Help them. Do I need to get your wife?” Yhea asked.
 
“Yes.” He said in shock.
 
“Work to save them.” He commanded.
 
“Who are they??” Jao asked surprised.
 
“It matters not Jao. Just do this. I am going into the other plane to get your wife.” Yhea stated.
 
Jao nodded and Yhea phased out to get Nanami. The Shouten healer quickly bit into his own wrist and pressed it to the tiger's mouth.
 
“My wife will be here soon. She is a brilliant doctor. I can hear the other's heart beat but it weak.” He said.
 
The tiger closed his eyes and wondered how in the hell all this was happening but the mortal's weapons were insidious now. He felt moments later hands and a gasp of a female. He opened his eyes to meet black kumo eyes of a young onna. He thought he recognized her and she was shaking as she looked him over.
 
“Oh my Kamis. What have you done?” Nanami asked Yhea.
 
“Tell her I did this. Tell her I know how much this man means. Tell her I wish her well.” He said phasing out.
 
Nanami was struck dumb but she began working quickly.
 
“Jao. Phase all of us to the hospital. I need Shinobu and Chichi to help me.” She said fast.
 
The tiger grabbed her arm and his eyes were wide. She met his gaze and her eyes were filled with tears.
 
“Nanami? You are Nanami?” The tiger rasped.
 
“Hai Quon it is me.” She said in a shaky voice.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Nanami and Shinobu had managed to stabilize both Cheung and Quon; both were resting comfortably and they did not know how to tell their mother that her beloved Byakko husband was alive and well at the moment. They had remembered how Zihao, Wen, and Wenling had reacted when both their mother and father had died. Wen was a mess at the moment with Gabrielus missing and this would rock her world. Asuna was recovering from a nasty bacterial infection induced from the claws of an eagle youkai and Nanami wanted to grab a specimen of the species and make an antidote to the pathogen. She was pacing and her sire was in shock as well.
 
“We cannot keep this from your mother much longer.” He said shaking his head.
 
“She is gonna flip.” Shinobu stated.
 
“Well hai. She will go nuts and probably faint.” Nobu said sighing.
 
“Who will faint?” Asuna asked from the door.
 
They all turned and dropped their jaws. Their mother was there dragging her IV stand behind her. She was dressed in an expensive black dressing gown and her silver hair was down.
 
“Umm Haha I think you need to sit.” Nanami stated.
 
“Do not patronize me Nanami. What is going on?” She demanded.
 
“Well Yhea sort of did something.” Shinobu started.
 
“Hai and it will shock you so I think you need to sit.” Nobu stated.
 
“What?” She growled.
 
“Yhea brought Quon and Cheung back from the past.” Her daughter blurted out.
 
“Pardon?” Asuna said blinking.
 
“Yhea brought the Byakko princes back. He said he did it for you.” Nobu stated biting his lip.
 
Asuna stretched her awareness and she did indeed feel the Byakko prince. She was shaking and she damn near fainted. Nobu held her up and she was in shock.
 
“Is he okay?” She asked in disbelief.
 
“Oh yeah Haha. The wounds from then are nothing now. We were able to fix them both right up.” Her son stated.
 
“Nobu take me.” She whispered hoarsely.
 
Nobu gulped and he held her steady as he guided her towards the Byakko princes. She was unsure of how she would react and she was shaking. They entered the room and she saw them hooked up to IV's and Cheung was on a breathing machine. Quon looked much better off and he was deeply asleep. She moved forward slowly and she neared his hospital bed. Her fingers traced along his cheek bone and his silver eyes opened slowly and his eyes were heavy.
 
“Hi.” He managed.
 
“Hi.” She cried softly.
 
“They tell me I fell. Sorry if I have been gone.” Quon said barely able to lift his hand.
 
“No worries. I went before you.” She said crying as she kissed his hand.
 
“Gods inu I feel like hell.” He said closing his eyes.
 
“I know. I did too. Quon. Oh my Kamis Quon.” She said falling across his chest and began to sob.
 
His hand rested on her head and he was so tired. He could see her daughter standing in the door and she nodded to him. Quon was grateful to be alive and he truly had no idea who had saved him and his brother.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
He was walking between metal bars and he was marveling at how much the world had changed in one hundred years. His spine had been shattered but his cord had not been severed; he had been told he was lucky. Cheung was working with a pretty kumo nurse to work his legs. Asuna was sitting in a chair watching his progress as well as his twin daughters. Zihao was perched on a window and he was in shock that he had grand cubs.
 
“Come now Quon.” Nanami demanded.
 
“Oh you are a slave driver Nanami! When did you grow up?” Quon asked sweating profusely.
 
“Oh somewhere this past century. I have two children now too. Now come on!” She said smirking.
 
Quon looked over at Asuna and she was quiet. She was here everyday and her devotion to him still touched him.
 
“Ba, do you want some help?” Zihao asked.
 
“No. I must do this.” He said struggling.
 
“Quon allow our son to help you. This is the most difficult part. You will regain your strength but it will take time.” Asuna said in a soft tone.
 
“Okay inu but only because you asked.” He chuckled.
 
She met his eyes and hers shone with unshed tears. He looked at her deeply and he nodded to Zihao. His eldest cub jumped up and helped him finish the way and he fell exhausted into a wheel chair. He managed to wheel himself over to her and the cubs looked at each other and they vacated along with Nanami.
 
“Talk to me Asuna.” He said holding her face.
 
“I love you. I have always loved you.” She said nuzzling his hands.
 
“I know that. I remember kidnapping you. I remember you haunting me in the Sapporo palace.” He said chuckling.
 
“Hai. I remember you coming after me after I escaped.” Asuna said as tears fell.
 
“You saved me and we managed to have the handsomest boy I have ever seen. Then you pissed me off and gave me the twins.” He said pulled her to his lips.
 
She began sobbing as she kissed his lips. She buried her hands into his long silver hair and he wrapped his arms around her. She could not stop her broken sobs as the nipped at each other's lips. Quon was growling softly and he finally pulled back.
 
“I am going to work doubly hard to get well so I can enjoy you.” He said wiping away her tears.
 
“The Shouten have returned.” She said wiping her tears too.
 
“Shouten? Dear Gods is that what saved me and Cheung?” He asked.
 
“Hai. His name is Yhea and I need to talk to him.” She stated.
 
“Tell him thanks.” Quon said kissing her hard.
 
She sighed into it and he let her go.
 
“I need some rest inu. Your girl is going to make an old man of me and I am exhausted.” He said as she stood up.
 
She pushed his wheel chair back towards his private room and she was in major turmoil. It was good turmoil and she got him comfortable. She saw Cheung settle in and he gave her a nod. She nodded to him as well and she ported to Britain. She knew Yhea and he would be corporeal most of the time. She stalked through the mansion and she found him watching a television and he was chuckling.
 
“Now!” She said in a strained voice.
 
“Oh hello Asuna. How are you?” He asked in a non chalant tone.
 
“Yhea do not act stupid.” She said grabbing him.
 
“What?” he asked innocently.
 
“Take us somewhere private now!” She demanded in a confused tone.
 
He phased them within the desert and he watched her. She was pacing and she was shaking.
 
“I have a few that mean everything to me. Naraku and Ishin to name two but Quon has always been one. I have never gotten over him. I never will.” She said wiping away the torrents that would not stop.
 
“I was quite aware. You memories reek of him and he permeates everything in your mind.” He shrugged.
 
“What are you getting at Yhea?” Asuna demanded.
 
“You feel that way about Lei and he does not deserve it.” Yhea stated as he neared her.
 
“Why Yhea? Just tell me what were you thinking?” She asked.
 
“I wronged you terribly. I only try to make up for it.” He said.
 
“Yhea.” She said shaking her head and trying to calm herself.
 
“Well I am glad you are happy. I am glad it pleases you to have him returned to you. Now if you please since I am not needed; that sitcom I was watching was delightful!” He smirked.
 
“Do not do this. Do not make me feel more for you then lust.” She said shaking.
 
“What you feel is your business. Shall you like me to take you back to the other plane or perhaps you would like to find your Arrancar?” He asked in a jovial tone.
 
She did not think and she neared him. He appeared indifferent as she pulled him down to her lips. He kept his mouth stiff as she sought entrance. She growled loudly and he was having no part in it. He stepped back and bowed to her.
 
“I guess I should just take you back.” Yhea shrugged.
 
Asuna was truly shocked and in disbelief. He phased them back but she ported them to Kyoto. He was surprised and she took the opportunity to attack his mouth again. Yhea was fighting his true desires and his true wants. He gave in for a moment as he battled her tongue in mounting passion. She was making such loud growls and moans that he was highly affected but he jerked himself away.
 
“I am sorry. Enjoy your tiger.” He said phasing out quickly.
 
Asuna stared and blinked. Yhea had actually dismissed her after having done her a huge thing. She could not believe it and she could not believe him. She was confused but she suppressed it.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Blood ran through his fingers and it made him feel better. He could feel the confusion and anger that his lovely rival was experiencing. It was fascinating to him that something had gotten to her through a pathogen. It was so unheard of in the daemon world and he continued to let the blood run through his long appendages.
 
“You wanted to see the wyvern at some point?” Sanra asked as she watched Maec play with his food.
 
“Yes. I am thinking we make something very bad and something very terrible happen.” He said without looking up.
 
“Like what brother?” She asked curiously.
 
“I want mayhem. I want rape. I want death. I want this Naraku at your mercy.” He said looking up.
 
“Perhaps that fellow is dead enough?” His sister asked of the dead simian daemon.
 
“Perhaps. The succubus witch is off doing her own thing. The wyvern is obsessed with the basilisks who are by the way still alive?” Maec said flicking blood.
 
“Yes. I wish you would just let us kill them.” She pouted.
 
“In due time. Imagine my delight in finding them first. Sanra my love I am in need.” Maec growled rather loudly.
 
“Perhaps you should find your own obsession.” She snapped.
 
Maec was up and had her pinned against his door in a moment. She was thrilled to see his dangerous and murderous looks.
 
“You are mine to do with as I please. You will do as I say when I want you to and how I want you to. You sister are mine to fuck every which way.” Maec said harshly biting into her neck.
 
She grunted in pleasure at the pain and her eyes shut in ecstasy. She shuddered in delight and Maec wanted her to bleed. He ripped her throat pretty badly and phased her clothes away.
 
“You should have told me you had birthed a bastard.” He hissed in her ear.
 
“He means nothing. He was nothing but a mistake.” She groaned.
 
“But a mistake that can bite me in the ass Sanra.” Maec hissed again.
 
“As if anyone can truly beat you. You figured a way here against all odds. You cheated death. You won against Kaimei Hasegawa.” She said screaming out in pain.
 
“I will watch you defile that unnatural half breed. I want to watch as you rip him up. I want to hurt him.” Maec said as his eyes flashed.
 
“Yes.” She moaned louder.
 
“You are such a perfect slut.” He chuckled.
 
She was incensed and inflamed by his words and he brutally kissed her. Blood was spilling everywhere as he ripped her up and he wanted his enemy badly. He slated his lust with his half sister-lover and dreamed of defiling the succubus canine. The only rub in his fantasies was that he could not truly harm her. Sanra was in a heap on his floor and he stared at her in anger. He phased out and he decided to spy. He was in the other plane and he was in search of what he really wanted. He had found out his son Nveid had bound himself to one of her daughters and he was searching for his brat of a son now. He could not blame his boy too much though; the rumor was the little witch was a Tomoshibi now. As much as he hated them, he knew he was in desperate love with one. He saw her and she was walking along a beach. A smirk graced his lips and she whirled around just in time to meet his fist.
 
“Gods you are awesome. Shall we battle and then fuck or shall we fuck first?” He asked crazily.
 
“You are sick.” She snarled.
 
“No darling just very determined. I thought I would tell you that I know where your little basilisk boys are.” He said smiling.
 
“Excuse me?” Asuna said shaking.
 
“Yes. The wyvern have them but I will not allow my allies to kill them. I am keeping the little basilisk boy though. One of my daughters delights in him as she says he is sweet. I could care less but if it keeps you at bay then so be it. I am going to give the wyvern the go ahead to start killing though. There has not been enough blood spilled and you grow tiresome. Toodles.” He said phasing out.
 
He heard her screaming in rage and he chuckled the whole time. It really had been too easy to find the basilisk. The damn ruler had been looking for his people and the wyvern were looking for him. He waited for the fireworks to begin and Sanra to begin her hunt. His fun was just beginning.
