The Hunter

[deathknight517]

As the Dark Demon dashed over the rooftops, using his full faced helmet to scan the area, scanning object after object and finding no sign of demon life or human life. He approached a grave site. He knelt down and showed his respects for those fallen, before standing and continuing to stalk the grounds in hopes of finding something or someone. He rested against a wall, opening one of the packets on his kevlar vest "Man I must look horribly out of place in this era....A Fake Demon wearing Modern Body armor and using a combat helmet to look for pray...this is...ugh...I wish I knew where I could find someone to help.." he whispered to himself as he took what looked like a small box out of the packet, inside the packet was a ration which had multiple flavors mixed into one piece of jerky, so it tasted horribly, he opened the packet and his stomach growled, he with much effort bit down and tore a piece of and commensed to chew the horribly rough meal "I wonder how people will react to me" He had an assault rifle attached to a holding strap around him resting against his back, his red eyes lurched around as he looked forward chewing still and finally gulping the tasteless concotion, he coughed as it went down "How soldiers down this stuff I'll never know.." he said emotionless as he tucked the ration away for later, he stood up taking the M16 Assault Rifle out and preparing to leave the village "Why am i here...."

[kanrya]

Kanrya quietly watched in the shadows as the strange demon poked around the village. "What are you doing here? Don't you know that this is a place full of tragdey?" She stood at the village entrance and frowned at this strange person in shiny armor.

[deathknight517]

Shade turned and aimed his rifle at her, he switche the safety off and put it on a semi automatic fire that fired 3 shots per fire, he took a step forward, his Kevlar vest shining, and his black helmet gleaming in the sunlight, the scanner flashed red as it brought up data on Kanrya, if she had any diseases, what she was, and where she hailed from. She lowered his rifle when it finished scanning "Don't scare me like that...I could've killed you, don't you think before you act?" Shade put the Rifle back onto his back, and walked toward Kanrya "I can tell...it looks like the whole village died...Ironic...this village ued to be a village for Demon Exterminators...atleast thats what the Database back at The Agency recorded into my brain when I was being experimented on..." he took off his helmet and threw it too the ground, feeling it would be more useful just to go with his gut instead of a defective shiney piece of technology "Sorry for making demands, but one last thing...what Era is this?"

[kanrya]

Kanrya crossed her arms and rolled her eyes as she leaned against the post of the entrance and yawned lazily. "Like you can hurt me?" She scoffed and sighed at this baka as he spouted nonsense. "It's the Feudal Era baka...you must be from the future..." She itched behind one of her fox ears and popped her neck. She checked her nails and sighed again. "What the hell or who the hell are you? Some kind of samurai? She asked as she slowly walked up to him.

[deathknight517]

Shad had his arms behind him in typically soldier fashion "I am not an ancient warrior bound by the blade, I am...well thats classified...most people call me Shade for short since my real name is a mouh full..." the shadows in the area slowly began to point towards Shade and seap into his hand, forming into a sword. He stared at Kanrya "Calling someone a baka is a good way to get yourelf killed in this day and age, atleast thats what the history books tell us..." he swinged the sword forward twirling it in his hands, careful to not hit Kanrya he drew a line in the ground with the sword and then spoke "Cross this line, and you'll find out how much of a 'baka' you are...all i ask is to answer a few simple questions, no I am not a samurai...the helmet was basically the only SHINEY thing I wore. the kevlar vest is made of a resistant comfortable material, it has many areas on the front to store things, and 4 straps and a zipper to keep it attached." He spinned the blade in his hand as it began to disappear, turning into a shadow of the sword before dissipating back to the darkness "Neat trick huh?" he asked smiling.

((If you read his description you'd know what he looks like, he isn't shiney. the only thing shiney was the metal combat helmet he wore))

[kanrya]

Kanrya grinned mischeviously and purred and did her little flash-step and retrieved the helmet before he could even track her down and reappeared holding the helmet and put it on her own head. "So what does this thing do?" She asked as she looked around in it and then looked right at him. "Who is the baka??" She pulled the helmet off and giggled pleased with herself and purred more. It was a good thing she was in a good mood else this baka would have died quickly.

[lnaydun]

There was bit of a rumbling noise from a nearby grave as dirt began to shift and stir about building up into a sizeable mound before a small little fox head popped out, ears twitching as he looked about letting out small irritated barks. Soon he was squirming and struggling to pull the rest of his body out of the ground before swaggering over to the two with the typical grace that foxes are renowned for not a speck of dirt visible on his fur despite the fact he had apparently been sleeping in a grave. He stopped and sat back on his hind legs just in front of the two cocking his head to the side and giving them both strange looks before he turned into his semi-human form and growled slightly at the two “Can’t you people see some of us are sleeping off our hangovers? If a fox can’t get some peace and quiet in a completely abandoned village then where may I ask is he suppose to get drunk off his ass and pass out? Besides you two are disrespecting my not so lively friends over there” He pointed over to a couple of graves and snickered.

He paced around the strange demon as he adjusted his many belts common to the Shibuya fashions of Tokyo then polished the metal armor on his thick leather vest slightly before proceeding to give the two the evil eye “If you two love birds are gonna quarrel may I suggest you do it somewhere far, far, away from this poor old hung over fox?” He guffawed slightly and strolled over to a nearby grave plopping down on his ass before wrapping his arm around a nearby skeleton “These two seem a bit odd don’t they buddy? Don’t they know not to disturb the dead?”

[deathknight517]

Shade sighed and poked the odd fox on the shoulder "Hey buddy, you're a hypocrite now put that corpse back and pay you're respects to the fallen..." the shadows formed into two identical swords as Shade swerved around pointing one at Kanrya "Don't think just because you're fast you can win, theres a lot of things you don't understand and I'm one of them. You may be a child but even you should know that vanity often leads to death especially for those of not human blood..."

[lnaydun]

Toko snorted at the demon “First you lay judgment on me then you tell the little vixen not to judge you? Who was it that was the hypocrite again? And I’ll have you know that the dead and the kitsune get along very well, half of them become us anyways aww but what would you understand about that anyways?” He patted the skeleton softly on the shoulder “Awww this kid is quite the oddity I must say, assuming he knows more than others but not wanting others to make assumptions. Now where did my bottle of sake get too?”

[kanrya]

Kanrya smirked and tossed him back the helmet. "You're no fun anyway hey toko!! You didn't leave any sake for me? " She pouted and held up the sake bottle and smiled. "You left it with me silly..." She purred and went over to help the old fox up and lent him her shoulder to lean on. "I came back here so that i could help you back to the village..." She smiled and pulled gently on his hand.

[deathknight517]

Shade looked and Kanrya then the old wolf. "I may be hypocritical, but it would be respectful if you put the body back is all I'm saying...I showed my respects the moment I found the grave...you've never seen a demon like me have you?' He looked through his pack and found abottle labeled 'emergency drinking fluid' he took it out of the pocket on his vest and threw it into the old fox's hands "Mix that with grapes and you have you're own Sake, my creator taught me that as an emergency trick to numb myself if I chose to kill myself for being a failure in her experiments..." he sighed, knowing that he was the result of torturous experiments, and horrible mind rapeing techniques. all to make him a heartless efficent and deadly soldier, but all his mother cared about is the fact that he wouldn't obay everything like a good puppet...disowned by his own mother for not being a slave to the company he was created by... "Never again...I'll live my new life here..." he spoke aloud to himself, clenching his fists almost causing his hands to bleed from the amount of force he used to clench his hands "Well maybe we could all get to know eachother a little more....I mean...sorry for judging...no one deserves to be judged...no one...no one." Shade sat down near the old wolf, but he was somewhat distant and beside the shadow a building cast, or more appropriatly in it. I twas almost night and the shadows were growing, he smiled knowing he was strongest when the moon rose.

[lnaydun]

He looked dazed “Did I? What village?” He stumbled after her slightly as she tugged on his hand and he laughed “Who are you again? Ummm . . . Kanrya? Oh yeah Rya!” He whispered “We’re not married are we cutie?” He scratched his head slightly as his tails hung limply behind him not remembering much of anything “Is this whole Feudal Japan thing a dream or did that really happen?” He tittered nervously “Can you get me some more sake little vixen? I think I need to drink off this hangover. By Inari my head feels like its splitting open.” Before he could stumble off too far with Rya though the man had tossed a packet into his hands and he grinned “Oh la la sake château Shade, thanks kid.” He swirled his hand around and suddenly a bushel of grapes appeared in it. He sat back down next to Shade pulling the little vixen on to his lap as he began to mix the grapes and powder drinking it as soon as it tasted right “Lets stay here Rya with the nice man with magic sake hmm?! No hard feelings Shade, but you should know kitsune have a strong connection with the dead, one that’s almost impossible to comprehend. What seems like disrespect to you is respectful for us.” He sighed and drank heavily of the strong brew “Where are you from anyways? He asked curiously as he played with Rya’s tail.

[kanrya]

She smiled down at toko and nodded. "Yep it's me rya! let's go you dirty old fox..." She smiled and shook her head when he asked if they were married. "No and yes it's real that we are in the Feudal Era..." She let out a shriek as she was suddenly pulled into his lap and sighed. Then shrieked again and slapped the old fox as he played with her tail. "You old perv we need to go when Inuyasha gets here!!" She struggled out of his lap and stood in front of Toko No Yami while tapping her foot. "Let's go old man!!!"

[deathknight517]

Shade decided if he was going to start a new life he might as well come clean "I was an experiment that was branched from a company with horrible intentions, they bribe orphanages to give them children and not say a word, and they take dead fetuses from abortion clinics to experiment on. I was the abortioned fetus of the leader of the company runnning this project, The Agency, they used all sorts of deforming, maiming, scaring, and mental breaking training and techniques on the children. There hopes were to make fake demon soldiers...seeing how in the modern era, almost all demons are extinct. I was the template for the succesful soldiers, however I didn't go as planned...you see....they put me through enough...I'm unstable mentally, I have several deforming scars all over my body. and most notably my nose" he said pointing to his nose "When there attempts to break me failed, they deemed me a 'failue' just like the other 641 children before me...though they do not dispose of us. They use us with new Experiments, and even test us even more to see if we can be improved in a new 'host' they use Animal DNA most of the time, but sometimes they get there hands on Demon Blood...they used Demon Blood when creating me, it was severly tampered...I became a whole new breed of Demon...a Demon who can control shadows, who is most powerful at night...when Darkness comes the world is my playgroudn." He sighed at the drama he had generated "Anywho, they knew I couldn't be improved upon, thats not bragging thats seriously what they said they knew my DNA was allready too unstable...so further tampering may have turned me into a beast that would destroy the whole earth. Anywho, they sent me through an experimental portal they have set up in the companies lower levels, where there true nature is revealed at being a genetics industry, they want to make Demon Soldiers to sell to various military powers, and once they have enough dominate the countries piece by piece themselves. They are illegal in every since of the word...Its hard to explain, I'll explain it more but I'd rather just show you if I could....its hard to explain....really hard..." he sighed knowing he wasn't clear AT ALL about where he came from "I was created, 6 monthes ago in a labratory in the underground of a company called The Agency, when they experimented on my fetus, they made me skip my child hood...I'm a teenager now. Theres one last thing, for some reason my mother...the Leader of the Company is somewhat...cut off...she only handles things secretly, and I don't think Demon Soldiers is what she wants...theres something evil about her...one of the other experiments actually died when she entered the room because evil affected his breathing...he suffocated to death when she came 6 feet near her. He was codenamed P.A.L.A.D.I.N. for being good hearted and able to sense the light and evil in people...poor fellow didn't deserve death...now all I want to do is live here...start anew...find love...find help...free my friends...and stop my mother....I don't know what my mother's intentions are but they are much worse then they allready appear to be."

[lnaydun]

He whimpered slightly and rubbed his cheek “But the sake! And who the heck is this Inuyasha guy anyways, I’ve heard a lot about him but I still haven’t seen him around anywhere.” He winked at her “Hee hee I maybe a dirty old fox but you know you love it.” He raised an eyebrow at the strange demon beside him “Eh enough with the dramatics boy, the future ain’t so bad lotsa art, really good booze, and pretty girls to boot. Besides everything goes in cycles I’m sure that demon kind will rise again and the watchamacallit that made you will get whatever’s coming to it. So what was you code name? Lt. Psycho?” He snickered slightly and stumbled to his feet leaning heavily on Rya “Come on you naughty little vixen lets go do something?! Come on Shade you need to lighten up come with us and get drunk or something maybe Rya can introduce you to her friends so you can see how crazy everyone else is and you won’t feel like such a psychotic freak.” He snickered some more before falling flat on his face his tails standing straight up in the air.
