"Yeah, yeah I like these two. They're like us Kuronue. I've been playing around too. You haven't seen any where near my true power." Youko said and smirked when Sikana stopped walking and just stared at him

"I don't believe that. You may be fighting at half your power but no less then that." Sikana said worriedly.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Yeah you wish. Want to find out?" Youko said with a smirk on his face.

"Go right ahead you still won't be stronger then me." Sikana said arrogantly smirking.

<I hope to Kami he's not stronger then me…> Sikana though scared at how powerful he could become but she didn't show it at all.

"Sikana are you just stupid or some thing. Keep your cocky mouth shut." Matika said a little angry.

"Oh shut up. I'm fighting him not you so stop your bitching." Sikana said.

"Yeah well if he beats you I have to fight him so shut up!" Matika said.

"Some friend…" Sikana said to herself.

"What did you say?" Matika asked.

"I said shut up!" Sikana said annoyed by now.

"I agree with her." Kuronue said pointing to Sikana.

"Thanks even though you're here to kill us." Sikana said to Kuronue.

"Are you three done talking yet?" Youko asked very annoyed that he had to stop fighting for a conversation.

"No one told you to listen." Sikana said.

"It's kind of hard not to listen with my ears." Youko said.

"I see what you mean, can you fly with them?" Sikana said then laughed at the look on Youko's face.

"No I can't fly with my ears damn it!!" Youko yelled.

"It was an honest question." Sikana said sheepishly.

"No it wasn't it was mean." Youko whined.

"Oh you poor baby…" Sikana said.

"You're trying to piss him off aren't you." Kuronue said then smiled "It don't work that's what I tried when we first met each other. Just don't actually piss him off that hurts!" Kuronue warned.

"Kuronue shut up!" Youko said angrily.

"Damn too late I'm going this way." Kuronue said and turned and walked over to a wall of the castle and leaned on it.

"Cowered." Matika said.

"No just intelligence." Kuronue said.

"Oh look he's going to throw a seed at me." Sikana said looking at the seed worriedly.

"Maybe I should move a little further away." Kuronue said and started walking over to the outer castle walls.

<Maybe I should move…> Sikana thought as she watched Youko walk towards her.

"Yep defiantly need to move…" Sikana said then ran the direction that Kuronue had walked.

"Ahhh…don't come over here…" Kuronue said and started to run.

"Well where else am I supposed to go he's back that way!" Sikana said.

"You just had to piss him off didn't you." Kuronue said.

"Why in hell are you running any way aren't you on his side." Sikana said confused.

"Oh yeah…later have a nice run." Kuronue said and stopped then walked back past Youko who was now chasing Sikana.

<This is going to hurt…> Sikana said then stopped running and turned to face Youko.

"Yep this is really going to hurt…" Sikana said watching Youko walk up in front of her.

"Scared?" Youko asked as he glared at her.

"You wish…" Sikana said trying to be as cocky as before. Then Youko smirked which made her back up.

"You're shaking." Youko said

"No I'm not." Sikana said making herself stop shaking.

"Yes you are. And now you're mine." Youko said as he attacked Sikana. He knocked her sword away from her then hit her in the face.

"Here." Sikana said standing up and throwing a fire ball at Youko.

<Damn it!!> Sikana thought as the fire ball missed him completely because he jumped. She took that opportunity to run back to where Matika was.

"you did it this time." Matika said.

"Oh shut up!" Sikana said noticing Youko land right in front of her then hit her in the gut. She flew threw the outer walls of the castle and half way to the forest.

"Sikana!!" Matika yelled.

"Your turn." Youko said then smirked as she tried to freeze him.

"Damn you stop moving." Matika said.

"Yeah right and actually let you hit me. Not that it would hurt mind you. You are a little weaker then your friend and I've al ready beat her so give up." Youko said and smirked at the hatred in her eyes.

"why don't you go chase your tail!" Matika yelled.

"I would much rather have you or that other one do that." Youko said and grabbed Matika's chin and kissed her. Then lept over the castle gate and Kuronue followed. Matika ran to the gate and opened it.

"Some one go get Sikana." Matika said then ran back in to the castle looking for lord Kimpta.

"Matika what is going on out side?" Lord Kimpta asked.

"Well Youko ran off I'm still standing no villagers were hurt and we're looking for Sikana." Matika said.

"Looking for Sikana?" Lord Kimpta asked.

"Yes my lord she lost her battle with Youko the fox and is in the field out side the castle walls unconscious." Matika said.

"Miss. Matika we can't find Miss Sikana." A villager said as he ran into the greeting hall of the castle.

"WHAT? She's in the field between the forest and the castle walls." Matika said completely stunned.

"On of the children said they saw Youko and his partner pick some thing up before entering the forest again." The young man said sadly.

"Damn it this can't be happening. I've got to go look for her." Matika said as she started to leave.

"No Matika this castle is first priority. Who knows when he'll be back and you're our only guard." Lord Kimpta said.

"But Sikana is the main guard if she can't beat him then I can't. we need her my lord." Matika said.

"We'll go look for her when the castle is rebuilt." Lord Kimpta said.

"But Sir that may be to late." Matika said in a worried tone.

"No not until the castle is rebuilt and we have new guards." Lord Kimpta said.

"Fine I'll go look for her my self." Matika said.

"Matika you walk out that door you'll have a bounty hunter looking for your head." Lord Kimpta said.

"You wouldn't dare." Matika said angrily and very amazed.

"I will do it Matika. I under stand your worry for Sikana but the rest of the inhabitants of the castle are in danger if our only two guards go missing." Lord Kimpta said.

"Sikana would want' to protect the villagers Ma'am." The villager said sadly.

Back At Youko's Camp!

"Hey Kuronue what do you think about her. We could use some one like her on our little missions. She can fight and distract the male guards." Youko said laying the unconscious Sikana next to the fire.

"Yeah but what about the female guards?" Kuronue asked.

"I can handle them." Youko said confidently.

"Oh yeah like you did today." Kuronue said and smirked at Youko.

"Smart ass. there different some how." Youko said as he sat down on the other side of the fire as Sikana.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah where did Kita go?" Kuronue asked.

"I don't know she probably ran since we didn't comeback for a while." Youko said then laid down to go to sleep.

"You're going to sleep with her here." Kuronue said stunned.

"Why of course she's unconscious isn't she." Youko said then smirked at his cautious friend.

"So! She could come out of it at any time." Kuronue said as he looked between Youko and Sikana.

"Oh just get some sleep. Go sleep over there by those trees if you're afraid of her." Youko said sarcastically.

"I'm not afraid of her." Kuronue said.

"Then go to sleep. You'll need it dealing with her tomorrow." Youko said then closed his eyes. He opened then several minutes later to see Kuronue asleep near a bunch of rocks near the fire but further away from Sikana then he was.

<Chicken.> Youko thought and laughed a little then when to sleep for real.

The Next Morning!

Sikana woke up to see a sleeping Youko and a died out fire.

<Where in hell am I? Oh my head hurts…> Sikana said then noticed Kuronue and a hot spring behind him.

"Oh that will fell great especially with my head hurting. But there is no hot spring near the castle. Where am I?" Sikana asked her self quietly not to wake Youko or Kuronue, who had taken her sword and was now sleeping with it. Sikana got up and gathered some more wood and started the fire again then she walked over to the hot spring.

<Well since the morning sun isn't up fully yet they'll sleep for a while…hopefully…> Sikana thought as she took her cloths off and watched Youko and Kuronue to make sure they didn't wake up. She walked into the hot spring and once she was in deep enough dunked her head under the water.

Sikana stayed in the hot spring for what seemed like hours taking periodic looks at the two sleeping demons to make sure they were still sleeping.

"Well hello there! Pretty little naked demon!" a very ugly demon said then Sikana ducked behind a rock to shield her self from his eyes.

"Back off creep!" Sikana said hoping it would wake up Youko or Kuronue, which it did and they both looked around for Sikana.

"Hey where did she go?" Kuronue asked.

"I don't know." Youko said as he stood up.

"Keep away from me you creepy ugly thing!" Sikana yelled as the demon walked into the water.

"Kuronue look the hot spring." Youko said and ran to the hot spring.

"What the hell is she doing there. Naked!" Kuronue said walking up beside Youko who was beside Sikana's clothes.

"Back off she's our women!" Youko said.

"I don't see any marks on her." The demon said.

"We're standing here do you want to try your luck." Youko said with a smirk on his face as the demon started to walk away.

"Thanks I think. Now can you to turn around or go back to camp while I get dressed please." Sikana said still behind the rock she had jumped behind earlier.

"I think we should watch just in case he decides to come back." Youko said smiling mischievously.

"Youko come on leave her alone." Kuronue said dragging his friend and partner in crime back to camp.

<Thank Kami for Kuronue!> Sikana thought as she got out of the hot spring and put her cloths back on making sure Youko wasn't looking she was pretty sure Kuronue wouldn't look and she was right especially when Kuronue hit Youko for turning around to the hot spring. Course Sikana was already dressed and heading back to over to them. She walked over to the fire and looked down at the ground.

"Thanks Kuronue." Sikana said then looked up.

"For what I'm the one who scared that demon off." Youko whined.

"Yeah but you wanted to watch me dress. Kuronue didn't." Sikana said and smiled.

"Well I did but didn't." Kuronue said being very serious with Sikana.

"Well thanks any way. Can I have my sword back now?" Sikana asked.

"Why?" Kuronue asked.

"I guess I feel naked with out it." Sikana said.

"About like your pendent Kuronue." Youko said.

"All right but swear you won't use it on us." Kuronue said and grabbed her sword and sheath.

"I won't use it on you two. You didn't do any thing to me while I was unconscious." Sikana said and smiled.

"All right here." Kuronue said and threw her sheathe and sword to her.

"Thanks!" Sikana said and put it on her side.

"You're welcome. Hey Youko what's our next job?" Kuronue asked.

"I don't know I guess we just float around for a while until something ketches our ears or eyes." Youko said.

"Where are we?" Sikana asked.

"No where near your castle that's for sure." Youko said.

"Why did you two keep me with you?" Sikana asked.

"Thought we could use you on some of our jobs." Kuronue asked.

"Is then a request or an offer as a partner?" Sikana asked.

"Partner." Was all Youko said then sat down in front of the fire.

"What if I say no?" Sikana asked.

"Then we'll kill you it's that simple." Youko said.

"Nice choice isn't it!" Sikana said sarcastically.
