~*~*~Dark Days~*~*~

 

(A/N: ~! Masked man's thought speech! ~

~*masked female's thought speech*~)

 

 

 

 

 

 

“You are aware that you have raped and demolished over 40 women over the past year?” a deep male's voice came over top of the man on the ground.

 

“Yes,” was all that came.

 

“You realize this is over the amount needed to hunt and kill you?”

 

He looked up at the man in the mask. “Yes.”

 

“Now I have caught you, you shall die tonight, any last request?”

 

He thought it over. He knew he was bound to be caught one day by one of the legendary masked killers. He smiled as he spoke “I wish to see what you hide behind that mask.”

 

Masked man knelt down, face to face with the killer. He raised the one clawed-hand that was not on this throat and pulled off the mask.

 

“I always wondered why you wear that mask, you have nothing to hide.”

 

“I wish for secrecy.”

 

~*just kill the man brother, and lets get out of here.*~

 

The killer widened his eyes at the realization of his captors distance; he was hearing the mind speak of the other masker killer. She was the one the youkai they hunted, feared.

 

~! I think you should take him. I will not be able to do it quick enough !~

 

~*Hold him for a moment I am almost there.*~

 

“She is coming, is she not?” the killer asked.

 

The man placed his black mask back onto his face, and then laughed. “Yes, my sister is coming. It shall be a painless death, killer. I would have caused you pain because I am tired.”

 

“Brother I am here,” came the whip-like female voice from the shadows. She came from behind the shadows they ruled over and pulled down her black hood to show the masked face, the skin that showed was pale as the quarter moon above them. She walked like she was floating, her midnight black hair flowing gracefully behind her. Her clothing was a skin tight black suit with a cape surrounding her.

 

The masked man let off the killers neck, he rose quickly only to feel something burning within. He slowly turned his head to face the women. She held her open right hand up, a flame surrounding it. She smiled. When she slowly closed her fist, his body became hotter, like a fire. He could feel something inside of him bubbling. She closed her fist and cry echoed through the alleyways.

 

The killer dropped to the bare ground, his body burnt from the inside out. His blood boiled like water till there was nothing left. Eye sockets empty. And people say this was suppose to be a slow death.

 

“That was quick,” the man said.

 

The woman smiled “He called. It had to be quick.”

 

“When did he call?”

 

“A few minutes ago, He has orders for us.”

 

“Wonder who we have to get rid of now?”

 

“Some one he's tried to get for the longest time himself. Sounds like revenge but he's too weak to do it himself.”

 

The masked man started down the dark alleyway, into the shadows and disappeared. “Come Night, our master will not be pleased if we are late.”

 

Night turned towards her brother. She closed her eyes and felt movement down each side of her spine, flesh split on each side to sprout black bat-like wings. Opening her eyes she took flight into the night sky, to her master.

“Night, Shadow, you two are my most loyal and trustworthy hunters. While I have not spoken to you in nearly a year, yet you come when called.”

 

The twins rose from their bow to look at their master. While they never saw the man, they knew he was powerful. He had saved them did he not?

 

“I have heard from others you two have taken up positions as hunters of the underground, is this true? You are going on other hunts that I do not send you on.”

 

Shadow stepped forwards and curtly nodded. “Yes Master. These demons have been killing homeless defenseless humans for too long.”

 

“You are not full human. Why care for them?”

 

Night spoke up. “They have sheltered us when we were children, when we were separated from our mother. We have been living on the streets since we came to this country. We have an obligation to protect them.”

 

“Very well. As long as it does not get in the way with your first priority, my hunts.”

 

“Yes Master,” they answered in unison.

 

“Now I have your promise, your mission. Kill a hanyou and his friends. They have been a pain for over 500 years and I wish them dead.”

 

“Names?” Shadow asked.

 

“Inuyasha.”

 

The hunters bowed once more then turned to the door leading out.

 

“One more thing, my hunters.”

 

They turned once again.

 

“You will be tempted to leave my command. You will find things about your past. But always remember. I am your master first…”he smirked and chuckled “I hold your lives, you shall always return.”

 

“Yes master.”
