The Gentle Breeze: Jin and Touya Side Story

By Beautiful Dreamer1 aka Beauty chan

"We go up, down, left, right, flying through the air without a care. Loopy, loopy in a circle." Jin sang, while speeding wildly through the air. "Are ya having fun yet, Touya?" Not hearing any response from his companion, Jin turned his head to check his back, where Touya was supposed to be. "Where did ya go?" Jin looked up and side-to-side. "Don't cha know, he'd disappeared on me." Jin placed both hands on his hips and puffed out his cheeks.

"Jin!" A loud echoing sound of Touya's voice called from below him. Jin looked down to see a tiny dot, free falling, ungraceful, towards the ground.

"Gee, Touya, how did ya manage to get all the way down there? You know you can't fly." Unaware, Touya lost his grip on Jin's shoulders, just a few minutes ago, when the Wind Master was doing a loopy loop. "I guess I hafta save ya." Jin said, mostly to himself and nodding his head with arms crossed.

In a swan dive type action, Jin took off like a bullet to catch Touya. Increasing his speed force, ripping through the air around him, Jin quickly gained on Touya. As he got closer, he spread out his arms and encircled them around Touya's waist. Jin drew him closer to his chest. At that moment, Jin thought, 'for someone born of ice, he certainly feels warm. It would be kinda nice to stay like this.'

"Jin…" The Ice Master muttered softly and a mild blush went across his face. As the moment grew, Touya felt content in the unexpected embrace, while feeling the wind blowing rapidly through his hair as they continued to fell down, and down and down.

"Jin!" It finally hit Touya that Jin wasn't stopping their descent to the ground.

"Is there something wrong?" Jin asked in a dreamy like state.

"We're still falling." Touya spoke in a slight panic.

"Oh, I completely forgot." Jin sounded highly amused by the fact. With little effort, Jin slowed down their speed and brought them into an upright position, lingering in the air.

"How could you forget?" Touya's voice slightly grew louder with agitation.

"Sorry, Touya. I just got, kinda, distracted." Jin closed his eyes and brought one hand to the back of his head and rubbed his other hand across his nose (A/N: Classic Anime gesture, for when you don't want to reveal what is on your mind, bashfulness, or trying avoided a situation.) Suddenly, Jin became aware that Touya was missing again. A big splash was heard beneath him and Jin quickly moved closer to the ground. The wind master quickly scanned the area; it looked like some kind of training ground, with hundreds of watering pools throughout it. For the life of him, he couldn't pick which of the small pools of water the splash came from. On the side of the arena was an old demon looking curiously at him.

"Hey, did ya happen to see where an ice demon with light blue hair landed?" Jin shouted a few yards away from the demon.

"Yep." Jin waited for the old demon to say more but nothing came.

"Where is he?" Jin asked.

"Down there." The demon said.

"Which one?" Jin was growing mad with his simple answers. Touya could be drowning, while he waited for the old demon to tell him the details but to look through every pool would waste valuable time, too, if he didn't pick the right one. Suddenly, a low gasp followed by coughing, a merged from one of the pools. Touya weakly swam to the piece of land and pulled himself out of the water. Jin quickly landed in front of the ice demon and bent down to rub his wet back.

"Are ya okay, Touya?" Jin ears were hanging low out of sympathy and worry. Touya sharply looked up and gave him a cold glare. Yet, the glare didn't give off a feeling of intimidation, instead it was more like an annoyed expression. Jin's ears perk up as he examined more of Touya's features. Jin's noted that Touya's: hair has grown at least an inch, longer eye lashes, fuller pinkish lips, rounder hips and two lumps on his chest.

"Hey, Touya, whatcha hiding under your shirt?" Jin asked curiously.

"What are talking about? I'm not hiding anything."

"I bet it is a surprise present for me." Before Touya knew it, Jin excitedly launched himself at Touya and lifted up his shirt.

"Ah!" Both exclaimed as they saw breast on Touya's chest. Touya quickly pulled down his shirt and folded his arms over his newly formed breasts.

"Touya, you've …you've…have…" Jin held his hand in a half circle near his flat chest to indicate Touya's new equipment. "I thought you were a boy!"

"Your buddy is half boy and half girl, now because he landed into the spring of a drowned girl. Each pool of water has its own curse." The old demon spoke.

"How do I get rid of this?" A person clearly disguised, anxiety tinting Touya's voice.

"No one has ever been cured but you can turn back into a guy with hot water." The demon coolly replied and left the two alone. Jin watched the elder demon depart into a small shack. Once the door was closed, Jin turned his attention back to Touya. However, Touya swiftly walking into a forest and leaving Jin behind.

"Touya, wait up. Where ya going?" Jin yelled as he ran after Touya.

"To a tavern or a nearby source of water with no curses."

"It would be quicker if I fly us?" By this time, Jin had caught to Touya.

"I'm keeping my feet on the ground from now on." Touya said resentfully as the ice demon started to put some distance between them.

"There is nothing to fear, when I'm in the air." Jin said, full of confidence with joyful attitude.

"… Jin, you are not very reliable."

Jin ears drooped a bit from the comment. The two walked quietly long the forest with Touya in the front and Jin following behind. Jin's mind rambled about, trying to think of way to apologize to Touya and not angry with him. A short distance away, noises were coming from the bushes.

Out of curiosity, Jin went to the noise. As he pushed away the bushes, it finally revealed a winged pig demon. A runt, it could easily be concealed within his hands but it had so much energy as it rolled around on the ground.

"Come here, little guy. I think Touya would enjoy small piggy like you for a pet." Jin scoped up the piglet into his hands and ran to get Touya.

"Touya, I gotta present for ya." Wind demon was now blocking his companions path.

"What is it Jin?" The Ice Master wasn't as enthused to see anything Jin had to offer. Jin opened his hands to reveal a dazed winged pig sitting on its butt. The pig shook its head fiercely to the side. Then he got up and ran in circles on the wind demon's hand.

"Jin, put it back where you found it."

"You don't want the him." The pig stopped going in circles and stared at Touya. Swiftly, the demon took off and nuzzled itself against Touya's neck. Touya gentle grabbed the rascal and put him on the ground. The pig quickly ran to Touya's foot and continued to rub itself against him.

"See Touya, he likes ya." Jin smiled as he talked. Touya only sighed and began to walk again.

"What are ya going to name it?"

"I don't know. You decide."

"How about Porky?"

"No."

"Bacon."

"I don't think so."

"Spam, the other white meat."

"What?"

"Never mind. Let's call 'im, Hammy."

"…Alright."

"Do you like little fella?"

"Qweee." Hammy squealed in delight. So the trio walked down the path together.
