[open] Enter.At.Your.Own.RISK

[LEiKO]

There she stood, tall and beautiful before the open window just looking toward the garden which was completely serene and utterly amazing. Lavender hair that normally floats upon the air, laid flat on her sides as she took a small sip of her drink that she held at hand. Most had known her to be the God of the Kaijuu family, but others knew her as the Hachimata and possibly the most feared of all. A light smirk whipped across her face as she flung the throwing knife toward a tree that stood at a good distance from where she had been standing. Though at the moment, you can just call her Miss Leiko (even though she's still referred at as Hachimata no matter what).

Finally pulling herself away from the open window, Leiko sat at a small desk that had been placed in the vast room of hers. This was the only place that she could be alone even though she had hated it the most sometimes. Apparently, there is a young female living in her home and has yet to have her memory erased. This was bothering the woman the most as anger burned fiercely in her eyes. Pulling the mask off her face, pale lavender eyes gazed around the faintly lit room which held a gloomy feel to it. If there was one word to describe her room then it would be slaughterhouse. Nothing, but weapons hung upon her walls and some notes of those who begged for their lives.

Yes, this was the true Hachimata that has been trapped inside of this house with no where to go. Sure she was able to leave at anytime and she didn't have to return if she didn't want to, but father, of course, advised her not to leave since he didn't want her to disgrace him once again. "Even if I am called a God, such an insignificant man still controls what I do..." Leiko murmured softly under her breath leaning back into her seat. A low growl rumbled in her lower abdomen as she called one of the maids to her attention.

"H-How may I help you Hachimata-sama?" The maid smiled happily.

If there was anything that Leiko hated the most; it would be the treatment that she receives from these people. She already knew that it was all just an act because deep down, they all truly feared her and the power that she truly possessed. Getting up from her seat swiftly, the woman saw the poor maid flinch each time she got closer to her. "Hmph." Was all that she could say as she grabbed the girl by her hair and pushing her toward the ground, "Little wench, how dare you look at me with such a look on your face." Her eyes glared sharply, "Now go make yourself useful." Just throwing her to the side not wanting to have anything to do with her anymore.

Leiko didn't look back toward the defenseless girl who just sat there shaking. Did she really not hear? Was she that hard of hearing? Turning toward her again, she threw knife in the girl's direction that only made a small cut on her cheek. "Did I say you could sit there!?" Her voice thundered loudly, "Go now unless you rather die here!" She waited till she heard the door close being the girl before taking a seat in a large velvet red chair that sat in front of the fireplace.

[Seijun]

"Sei-chan, you sure you should go there?" asked Seijun's sister, Kyuuka. The fox stood there for a moment and nodded. Everyone knew when to be afraid of the Hachimata, but he was forced to go there. Forced to go to the place where he would be tortured by the snake and listen to her words, her hiss that always stung him. The words that might as well be daggers. After all, as great as the girl was with swords, she was even better with words around the cursed ones. She knew what to say and when to say it. She knew what they were thinking as if she was omnipotent. The idea was scary but he was used to it, although the words always hurt, no matter how much he tries to prepare himself for it. It's as if, the more he prepares for it though, the more it hurts. As if she can see into his mind and take out his fears to get him.

His clothes today were the usual, a black shirt with a red jacket on top that only went halfway, black jeans and a hat with a red stripe circling it. He didn't want to leave his sister right now though as he didn't want to get near the snake. The idea of going to the place where you know you would be hurt, was almost like a soldier going into a battle where he could not win. He didn't want to do it, but knew that he had to or else the consequence might be even worse. After all, when it comes to the head, anything can happen. She can change heaven into hell in an instant if she wanted to even. It wasn't hard for her, she was almost like the demon itself. A snake, that constricts the fox, never letting it get out of its grasp, forever keeping it close so that it won't get away. It was the cage that he has to live in.

Looking at the door for a moment, his body screamed for him to run away. To run far away as possible and never come back. To go ahead and not care about what the others say and cut the ties with the Kaiju. Every inch of his body was already crying out for him to get away, they didn't want him to go ahead and face the snake. They would rather die then face it right now. The teen, gulp as he took his last breath of fresh air before opening the room. Apparently, there was a frightened girl. He ignored them though, as he proceeded towards the woman. Her age being quite older than him, he wasn't sure on how old she was though. No one would dare ask a woman her age, and to ask Hachimata is just the biggest mistake one can make in their life. She didn't look too much older than him though.

"i am here, Hachimata-sama." he stated as he took a small bow. He didn't dare sit down until he was told to. He stood straight, his eyes not even daring to look at her. Instead, he looked at the wooden floor that reflected him almost like a mirror. The maids, had obviously made it their duty to clean it every hour or something for it to be that clean. Well, who wouldn't though? No one would want to do anything that would anger the woman that was in front of him right now.

"Go now unless you rather die here!"

The head has spat in anger making the maid run for her life. She scrambled off the ground and rushed to the door. She moved so fast that he could had sworn, he felt the wind push his hair a little. It was definitely in fear, to which he couldn't blame her. Even he didn't want to be here right now and he wasn't really someone who would have these kinds of thoughts much. There are special occasions though, and this was of course one of them. Being tortured but yet still kept alive to feel the pain. It was a fate far worst then death. That was the truth, although he never tried to kill himself because of the fear of what his sister would feel. As the woman slowly headed towards her red velvet chair, he stood there, waiting for her to mock him with her words or perhaps for her to grab her sword and slowly cut him a little on his arm to remind him that he was her fox and would listen to everything she says. To remind him that she was the master and that he is her slave who will never able to escape from her.

[+Tsubaki+]

On her knees a small pink haired girl slid open the door. She could hear Leiko’s loud voice from the gardens where she usual sets up and spends her time drawing. Taking a deep breath a scroll in hand she stood up and entered the large room. She gave a happy but emotional look to the God. The Hachimata. The Lavender haired woman was tall and beautiful. She was also somewhat cynical and twisted. The way she operated the Kaiju house was a way that Tsubaki would never approve of but these were one of those things that you couldn’t ever fix. Not unless she could befriend Leiko which seemed somewhat possible. She saw the woman at her desk having the usual frustrated look on her smooth face. She had piles of papers on her desk that seemed to be the source of her anger.

Moving to the middle of the room Tsubaki kept her face plain but eyes alert. Placing the scroll on Leiko’s large desk she bowed. “I found that snake in the gardens.” She said with confidence. She was known to be one of the cursed family members who did not fear the snake’s power. She saw Seijun the Kyuubi and she guessed the least favorite of the cursed family. Until now she didn’t notice the quiet boy thinking to herself. [/i]Good thing I came when I did. Knowing the history between these two…[/i] It wasn’t a secret that the god… Hachimata-san likes to torture the poor, quiet boy.

Apparently Hachimata-san was about to start another episode with Seijun. With Tsubaki there she could almost guarantee that the Hachimata couldn’t physically hurt him and when possible she would defend her quiet and lazy cousin. Seijun was wearing his usual black shirt with a red jacket on top that seemed almost small on his slim body. His black jeans went well with the simply lit background. She gave him a reassuring nod. [/size]

[LEiKO]

"i am here, Hachimata-sama."

A smirk spread wide across her lips at the mere sound of the kyuubi's voice gave the woman a sense of death. Tapping her fingers against the arm of the chair she waited until everything was completely silent. The only sound that could be heard was the crackle of the flames that echoed beautifully in the silence. Nothing could interupt this very moment that she was having now. The Goddess of the house, the Hachimata, Miss Leiko who also loved the sight of death; especially when she watched the man she once called father die. A good thing none of these fools know what really happened. A dark laughter filled the silence, but only the Hachimata would know the true joke behind it.

There she slowly stood up from her seat walking over toward the fox, the one that she hated the most. "Sit, Kyuubi." Her voice was sickly sweet that it sent chills down anyone's spine. Watching him, she noticed another entering her room with her boa silently following behind. "Thank you, Tsubaki-san." She murmured quietly and slightly annoyed which she didn't try to hide at all. There was a thing that Leiko didn't like about some of the members of the house. Some knew well to stay away from her and others insisted to stay close to her as much as possible. Tsubaki was one of those people which was annoying at some points. The large snake slithered making his way to his master as Leiko let out a small hiss.

Going back to her desk with the endless piles of work, she looked from the kyuubi to the bird. Leiko already knew why the kyuubi was there, but as far as had known she didn't call Tsubaki to her office. "Is there something that you needed Soukou-san?" The woman glared gently in her direction completely ignoring Seijun at the moment since wasn't all that important to begin with. The rested in her lap as she gave it a pat on it's head. The only one in the family that could communicate with snakes and possibly one of the deadliest compared to the Isonade, who she has yet to make a visit to.

[Seijun]

"Sit, Kyuubi."

Seijun stood there for a moment after hearing Leiko's words. They were almost like a poisonous flower. The words, so sweet just like the scent of a flower, but in truth, when someone gets close, there was nothing sweet about it. It was all an illusion, one to calm down the mind before the snake attacks. He slowly, sat down on the ground, using his knees to support his body. He stood there, keeping silently and not daring to look at the woman. Not unless he was forced to anyway, but that wasn't exactly the case right now. His mind felt quite numb as he tried to keep in all of his emotions. It was what he usually does but she always had the key to set them free again. For him, to fear her and obey her like a tamed animal. That was what he probably was, to most people in this house though, always following orders. It was all thanks to the purple hair woman in this room.

"It's okay." he quietly reassured himself. He wanted to feel brave and just not care about what she was going to say. To retreat into his own little world and make sure that she won't be able to come near him. It would had been great for that, just to go into a place that he will always be safe, no matter what. Too bad there was no search place in this world. No haven for anybody as they try to survive in this world."Hachimata-sama, would you like me to fetch something to drink?" he asked, hoping to find a way to escape this place for a little while in order to recollect himself.

[+Tsubaki+]

Tsubaki almost wanted to transform at that moment. Hachimata was clearly not satisfied with her latest work. Sit Kyuubi. the snake commanded and the little fox obliged out of fear perhaps. She rubbed her arm to get rid of the bumps she received while listening to Hachimata’s command. While looking around she saw the large Boa that had followed her into Leiko-sama’s room. She frowned when his master gave a small hiss at it.

She smiled to herself. Why did she think the God would start something while there was a liable witness just a few steps away. No she would find a reason to kick her out then do it. But she would find a way. That silly boy wouldn’t let anyone know what was going on so she intended to find out for herself. Maybe if she forced herself to transform she could sit outside the door and listened? Shaking her head she answered Laiko-sama’s question.

Nothing really. But I was just wondering….Is that girl really going to stay with us? She of course was referring to Isonade’s little human friend. Tsubaki was somewhat outraged when she heard that there was going to be an outsider living amongst them. And an idol no less. This was just a huge mistake she was sure of it. She looked down prepared for the out lash she was sure Hachimata was going to make.
