[indent] Ren clenched her staff a little stronger as the two men continued to approach her. She was preparing to use her staff to smack one of the men, but as she was rearing up to hit him, in just seconds they were suddenly unconscious and several feet away. She didn’t get a chance to ponder what had happened when the young silver haired and silver eyed boy appeared before her, sitting on the ground. A demon. Ren’s grip on her staff didn’t waiver as she pulled the staff in front of her, pointing it towards the mischievous intruder. Ren glanced at the two emblems hanging on the sides, but neither of them were reacting to his presence, and Ren’s aggressive stance and expression softened. That was strange, the Chowa wasn’t alerting Ren to the new presence. Not good, not evil either. Ren’s eyes moved from the Chowa and to the young man looking demon who was sitting in front of her. She pulled her staff away, holding it by her side in a less aggressive manor. Remembering once again what Tanaka said about interacting with good and bad demons and people. Was he a friendly demon then? It seemed odd, and very lucky, that the first one she would meet would come to her aid like this. In fact, there was something almost familiar about it as well, but Ren couldn’t lay her finger quite on it. Something was itching at the back of her mind, but she was quick to dismiss it. This demon had helped her, so she would spare its life… unless they crossed paths again and it didn’t behave as friendly. [color=pink]“They were creeps…”[/color] She finally responded softly, her eyes glancing to the unconscious bodies. [color=pink]“However, it would be wrong of me to leave them as they are.”[/color] Her natural, warm and sweet nature was coming through as she put the staff into a holster on her back, and moved towards each of the unconscious men. They weren’t significantly injured, no drawn blood. But it was obvious that the power of the demon’s attacks wasn’t one to be trifled with. Ren turned once again, her attention to the demon, examining him. If she didn’t know better, and wasn’t trained to control herself, she probably would be head over heels right now. Ren was a sucker for the strong, defensive types. Hence Ra- Taiki. When the two were young, there were many instances where out in public Taiki would stay by her side to protect her from prying eyes. He had also started a handful of fights with other young boys who wanted to get a little too close to Ren. Taiki cared a lot about her and didn’t like the idea of harm coming towards her. In fact, Ren was pretty surprised Taiki hadn’t put up a fight to prevent her from leaving the village. If Taiki could have his way, they probably would be married right now… It also didn't help that the demon was a bit charming to the eyes. He had a playful look about him, very different from Taiki. The demon also looked slimmer and perhaps slightly shorter than Taiki did. She didn't know the demon at all, but something in her chest was telling her they were nothing alike yet... Ugh, why was she so easily charmed by strong men? Ren’s hand moved to the dragon’s tooth that hung around her neck, once again feeling the smooth bone. Funny, she had been protected, but perhaps it wasn’t the dragon’s tooth that had ensured her safety. [color=pink]“Thank you, demon. For protecting me from those attackers. Normally I would be inclined to be indebted towards you for your work. However, I have no intentions of having debt with a demon. So, I will say my debt towards you has been repaid by not banishing your soul into the depts of hell.”[/color] She spoke firmly, which seemed out of character for her sweet, gentle voice. Ren nodded towards the demon in recognition for his effort, pulled the Chowa once again into her hands, and began to continue towards Ryoshi village. She was going to be set back a bit, so it would probably be later than expected for her to arrive. But her smile didn’t hinder on her face. She looked over her shoulder, still smiling her signature, sweet yet teasing, smile. [color=pink]“You may not be as lucky if we meet again… so I recommend keeping your nose out of trouble.”[/color] Ren continued onwards on the path. Though externally she had her sweet smile, and bright eyes. She was still pondering so many things in her head. Why hadn’t the Chowa reacted towards the new visitor? The Chowa always responded to those who were strangers to the wielder, and Ren was certain she had never met this demon before… as every demon she had ever interacted with prior had been banished by her own hand. Yet if he was a stranger, why did he feel so familiar? Was the Chowa trying to tell her something, by not saying anything? And if he were a demon, why was he so oddly human.
