There sat in a random tree within the Inuyasha forest, was a hanyou dog demon. Gazing around the area that she could see from the high branch. Amber orbs darting about, a small smile on her peachy features as she leaned back against the trunk, high above the grassy forest-like floor.
'This is exactly what I need..a relaxing, beautiful day.' Looking up, through the branches above her to see the bright blue sky that held hardly any puffy, soft looking white clouds. A ray of sunlight coming down on the shadowy field that brighten up even the shadiest places.
A soft breeze went by, blowing her black ponytail that was resting on her left shoulder to try and follow the wind, fluttering and whipping about till the air had died down into it's peaceful slumber until the next rise of the wind to make the tree's wave and make loose leaves fall to the ground.
Brushing her black bangs into there normal position of being split in the middle to fully show a dark purple crested moon, Akiyama sighed. Curious to know what'd this day shall bring for her. Closing her eyes, she decide it was, at least somewhat safe enough to go into very, very light sleep.

Takuma had left his home around dawn, planning to find some breakfast. After some time of finding nothing that peaked his interest, he began to lose hope and decide he'd just eat later. He wasn't usually a picky eater, but then again, things were subject to change with him. This hadn't always been so. He used to be the same methodical, psychopathic murderer, with the same methodical psychopathic eating habits. Everything had changed.
But, hopefully for the best. Some changes he welcome very easily, but Iris had helped him with that. One thing he still couldn't get over, was other people. Be they human, half breed, or full demon, he usually could not get along with anything. It was hard; Everytime something started moving it's lips, he could only think of stabbing it in the face. As if it was an involuntary reflex. He didn't want to hate people all the time, but it just ended up that way. Of course, things were less confusing when you were absolute about something. Used to be, he'd kill absolutely everything and anything he felt like. He hadn't killed Iris, and now there was a rift in his thoughts. He could not kill absolutely anything and everything, 'cause maybe they were like Iris. He couldn't think of the descriptive word for her, one that fit the meaning perfectly.
Relieved he wasn't a poet, Taku continued walking until he happened upon a half breed dog demon. This is when that problem came up. Would the half breed be like Iris or like everything else that he killed? Should he kill it now? If he did he wouldn't be able to see if she was like Iris or not, and if he didn't, then the evil half breed would have an attempt at his life. Such a trouble. Takuma stood a few yards away from the tree, looking up into it. Crimson eyes waited to see if the half breed moved. She was either sleeping lightly or faking it. He couldn't tell; so he stayed stock still, watching.

Hearing foot steps below, the young hanyou cracked one golden orb open to gaze at a demon. She blinked, opening her other eye now as she sniff the air and scent of Taku. 'A half demon?' She could only stare down at Taku. She really never encountered another halfingly such as herself and it was slightly shocking, but that shock was short lived.
Making a nervous grin, she lightly waved. "Ello?" Akiyama called down below, really not knowing if this one was one of those types that wern't, really friendly. Arching her legs up so she could wrap her arms around them as she pulled them closer, the maroon sleeves partly covering her pants and legs.
Blinking, she tilted her head to the side, black silky bangs following in the same movement just not getting out of place and the strands that framed the side, though more like the ears, of her face shifted. Really, she didn't know what else to say, hopefully the demon below would speak and be on it's way if it was meant to harm her.
'More and more demons I meet with, are normally ones that'll kill.' Akiyama thought, biting her bottom lip nervously. You couldn't say she was scared, oh no, just a little cautions and well, nervous!

He looked up at the half breed, crimson eyes watching her hand move back and forth with a wave. He was fine until he heard the "hello." It felt like the pit of his stomach dropped out, and felt the emptiness for a few short moments, before it was replaced by a relentless rage. He didn't know why this always happened, but he could only think about hurting the hanyou now, his fists clenching. He couldn't focus, not until he felt his claws drawing blood in his palms.
Snapping back to reality, his head moved slightly, like a twitch as if someone had just waken up from a light sleep. "...Hello." He forced past his lips, and he stared at the hanyou. He found nothing remarkable about her, she was another half breed.. but it wouldn't matter to him if she was full human or full demon, or any mixture of the two. He wanted to kill her, it was like a bad itch he had to scratch. But, he didn't move, he was hesitating. His new conscious, one that had formed after he met Iris, was trying to reason against his subconscious. "Why kill her? She's done nothing but sit in a tree and wave." Maybe, maybe he wanted her dead, because the moment he turned his back to walk away, she would strike. She would kill him dead where he stood if he took his eyes off of her for a second.
Before he'd realized it, he sprinted at the tree, locking his eyes on the hanyou's. Jumping at the tree, he fought between wanting to kill her, and wanting to leave. Hesitating, he grabbed another branch before he reached the hanyou, and it stopped him. Releasing the branch, he dropped quietly to the ground, and quickly tried to walk away. Voices in his head. He shouldn't turn his back, she'd kill him. His mind fought itself, like an implosion in his brain. He managed to continue walking away, and hopefully he could keep doing that, even if the hanyou did say something to him.
Taku had made a lot of progress since he'd been with Iris, but he still had lots of problems. Many of them violent.

Akiyama stared blankly at Taku, noticing the reactions and emotions being displayed on his face. Though, he made no movement and even spoke back, though it sounded forced and he just continued to stare, which she took a notice that held much anger, and the want to kill.
Though, before she could say anything else, she was startled as she saw him rushing towards the her and jumped. From the fright, she fell out of the tree branch she sat on and on the forest floor with a loud thump. Rubbing her head, she gazed over where he stop and caught himself in another branch.
Frowning, Akiyama thought it as a joke, but decided otherwise since he held no emotion that told her he enjoyed the pleasure of scaring her and making her hurt herself on accident. Sitting on her knees, she made a small pout at the half demon, 'That was random and rude!' Though not glaring at him now, though watching him with slight fright, yet innocent curiosity.
"You okay mister?" Akiyama thought better of speaking, but, Taku looked like he was fighting his mind over something, and still inexperience with knowledge of split personalities as she never encounter someone with that type of illness.

He heard the voice of the hanyou again, and it felt as if it resonated through his head. His walking slowed some, his legs desperately wanting to turn him around and go after her. Forcing an answer out through gritted teeth, blood from his palm seeped through his clenched knuckles. "Never better." A couple simple words, but it could almost be taken as sarcastic, if he wasn't to close to attacking the woman.
The one thing Aki would probably notice, after getting Taku's scent for a while, was that it was similar to Rounta's. Rounta was related to Taku through his father's blood. Brothers with different mothers, as it would seem. This gave them similar scents, but definitely not identical. Taku's demonic aura seemed just as unsure as him. Every once in a while it would flare up, but suddenly dying down as he kept it under control. Taku knew he shouldn't attack the hanyou, but he was having such problems controlling himself. Good thing he didn't have a weapon on him.

Akiyama dragged her eyes to his fist, smelling the scent of blood before she darted her amber eyes back up to where his face would have been if he turned back around to face her. The fifteen year old furrowed her brow, 'He doesn't look well.. .' But she decided to not press the matter any further.
From the scent of blood, she took a note how.. similar it was to Rounta, the other demon she met. Eyes wide, she couldn't help herself but blurt out. "Are you related to Rounta?!" Then made an, 'eep' sound and covered her mouth even though it was to late.
The hanyou had a funny feeling that, this guy really didn't wish to be spoke to. And she could have kept quiet, allowed Taku to walk away. But, unfortunately, that didn't happen. Standing up quickly, she watched Taku warily. 'He does smell like Rounta-sama.. ' Akiyama thought, 'Are they brothers?' She added, pondering.

Kitten had woke up a little after Taku had left she sat up rubbing her head before Jumping out of bed and walking out of the cave still half asleep. " Always wondering off ", she grumbled following his sent to where she thought he was. " show him I can find him... Just watch me ", she grumbled even more grouchy now that she had to get out of bed just to go look for him. " Taku! Where are you!!", she yelled as loud as she could. She walked a little further before she seen him and some girl she didnt know. " hmm? heh I want to see this", she snickered jumping behind a tree to see what he was going to do.

He felt it welling up inside of him, more rage. Rounta.. he remembered the name. Iris had said he was the guy who resurrected him after he was slain by Battojin. He had no brother. His father died fighting the same villagers which had killed his mother, there wasn't any way he had a brother. He refused to believe it, and now having someone else toss this in front of him, someone he didn't mind killing.. He began to feel he'd get some satisfaction from killing Aki.
A low growl, like some that would come from an actual wolf, came deep from Taku's throat. Turning on the ball of his foot swiftly, he shot at Aki, sprinting much more swiftly than the first time. He had close in on her in only a couple of seconds, and when he got near, he lunged forward some, trying to strike his claws across her face. After the first swing at her face from Taku's right arm, his left arm shot forward in a focus stab, using his claws, to try and penetrate the flesh of her abdomen. If she didn't dodge this more lethal second attack, Taku would certainly disembowel her where she stood. Not a word was said.

Golden pools wide as Taku was speeding, swiftly towards her. Yelping from fright, and shock, well not really for the shock thing, she knew it was coming sooner or later. Akiyama pulled herself together and jumped out of the way of both attacked, though nearly dodging the slash to the face and got a small cut on her left cheek.
Seeing she has no choice but to defend herself, Akiyama decided to do so. Baring her canines equally at the hanyou wolf. She jump into a branch and pulled out her dagger. 'Really didn't want to fight. Why is it that, even the most safest places, there's danger where ever I go?' She thought bitterly.
'I just hope I can survive this battle.. .if not. I have no choice than to run. Oh kami! Why?' She whimpered to her own self, sighing as she watched Taku carefully more so than eariler.
Catching a scent of another, Akiyama forced herself to not look where the scent of this other person was at, she needed all her attention on Taku, so if he played anything funny. She would know it, and be ready as ever.

Kitten sighed seeing that taku had begun to fight with this girl she stepped out from behind the tree. " Whats wrong Taku why are you fighting with this girl?', she asked tilting her head to the side some. " You really shouldn't pick fights you might get beat again ", She snickered. She rubbed the back of her head and yawned watching the two. She wasn't about to step in and stop them Till she knew what was going on, She wasn't that stupid.

Taku snarled, turning and looked at Aki. He looked as if to run after her, but he stopped upon hearing Iris' voice. He looked at her, hearing what she said about him getting beat again. His face remained twisted in anger, like it usually did. He felt a sudden feeling of conflict within him. Stepping away, he felt like he still wanted to kill Aki, but also that he wanted to kill Iris. This wasn't something he liked, and wasn't something he wanted. He turned, trying to walk away from the area, to get away. Last thing he wanted was either of them saying anything right now, he had enough trouble controlling himself.

Akiyama looked over to where Iris stood, confused slightly about what she had said and gazed over at Taku. He backed down, but.. he looked like he still wanted to kill. And that, she flinched. 'Lovely.. make a note to hopefully to not run into him in the near future..' She sighed, still having her guard up.
The dog hanyou didn't say anything, only watch as Taku walked away. She feard if she said anything right there and then, well, that was in her mind and hardly of any of the fears she normally have.

Kitten watched taku walk away and Knowing Kitten she Just has to Open her big mouth. " Fine leave!", she growled fearless or so it seemed right then but he knew how she was. Kitten looked over at Akiyama. " he really dosent mean anything by what he just did he's just sorta him", she said sighing.

He stumbled some as he walked, his bones moving some, as he almost turned to full demon form. Taku really was getting worked up, and it was really over nothing. But the problem was, if that the gears in his head that didn't turn right, continued to make him think as if he needed to harm something.
Iris growling at him and yelling, made him feel confused, yet even more pissed off at the same time. He circled around the forest some, before he found that he was back at his home, a dingy cave. Feeling conflicted, confused, and hateful, he went into the cave, sat down, and brooded.
