Two Girls, One well

Not so long after that Mira was staring at Naraku who was speaking with Dogimana and Haroshi about something, She couldn't quiet hear it but a few things she could make out. Like, "Don't kill." and "Test her."

Naraku scenced someone was watching him and looked over at Mira. He saw her blush feverishly and turn away quickly. He thought he would have a talk with her and planned on it, she was already making her way back to the room he had told her to stay in when he caught up to her.

"Ah you scared me there." Mira said placing her hand over her heart, witch in the last few days had slowed down in its pace. She smiled a bit at him and rubbed the back of her head, She wasn't afraid of him, just what he would do. "what can i do ya for mon capytan?" She giggled.

"I want you to tell me about your life, And what skills you have before i start your training.."

"Um all right..." Mira said and found her way into the room, taking a seat on the floor. playing with a pencil she found near her bag. "Well where do you want me to start?"

"Anywhere as long as it has to do with your skills."

"Ok..." She paused and rubbed her chin. "My dad had me and Nani in different styles of fighting since we where five. Well i was four she was five. He put us in a different type every year, I was currently working on Xing Yi, Its this Chinese form of marital arts...Ok. I'm fluent in 8 different languages, Including Japanese, English, Ittalian, Spanish, German, French, Chinese and Gaylic. French English and Japanese are my strongest languages. Japanese is the one we are speaking now. But my Japanese is modern, say yours is classic. So forgive me if you don't always understand my dialect."

Naraku was about in awe, Not only was she a human with some mighty fine fighting skills but she was intelligent as well, She would come in mighty good later on down the road. "Tell me more..."

"More? Like what about?"

"Your world, your time. Just tell me, I wish to learn everything i can..." (OOC moment for Naraku, sorry.)

"Well...In my world. You are nothing more then a show...A book, a cartoon so to speak. That is why i do not fear you Naraku, Because in my world, you are nothing more then a figment of ones imagination. "

"If i am not real, How are you speaking with me now?"

"I don't know." She said and rubbed the back of her head. "Perhaps the man who created all of you in his mind, created you from something he read about, something that actually transpired, real events with real creatures. Oh!" she shouted and smiled bright. "In my world, We have a place for bad men like you. Its called prison."

"Tell me about this...prison."

"Well its where bad people go, Who do bad things like murder, stealing. Really bad people get the death sentence. And if you don't get the death sentence usually you stay in there and rot for the rest of your life. While big ugly men force you to bend over and analy ra--" She was cut off by Haroshi walking in and saying something about Training. Mira shook her head, perhaps it was better that she DIDN'T tell Naraku the rest.
::::::::::::

Days later Mira was in the training arena with Dogimana getting beat badly. Naraku walked up to the side lines and stood there watching blow by blow smack into Mira. He heard her little random curses and watched her jump right back to her feet.

"She is really determined isn't she?" Haroshi walked up next to Naraku following suit with the crossed arms.

"Mmm." Was Naraku's only reply. Before acknowledging Haroshi's presence with a nod.

"Nice ass too. She is by fare the sexiest human i have ever seen." Haroshi snickered as Mira bent over to grab a sword. Mira looked over and waved to Haroshi but glared at Naraku. This maid him laugh. " She doesn't like you much does she."

"I couldn't care less." Naraku mumbled still watching.

"Her skill is almost as sharp as her toung." Harashi gestured for her to come over. Mira waved to Dogimana to stop for a second and she walked over to Haroshi. " Watch and learn." Naraku glared at Haroshi for that comment.

"Yeah?" Mira asked whipping sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand.

"Have you learned anything yet?" Mira smiled at this.

"Yeah, Dogimana has a weakness. I'm going to use it against him in a sec."Mira smirked and pulled her hair back. She looked over to Naraku as he walked off looking pissed " What is wrong with him?" She asked with confusion writin all over her face. Haroshi just shrugged and turned back to her after watching Naraku leave.

"Well go kick his ass." Haroshi smirked.

"Aye aye capin!" Mira saulted and went jogging back to the arena. " Hey Dogimana ready to get your ass kicked?"

"I dought it." Dogimana stood there not even sweating."Come on I'll give you one free hit."

"All right!" Mira piped up in a cheerful tone, and walked over to him and stood there.

"What are you doing?" He asked as she pulled her hands up to her chest and ripped off her shirt exposing her bra.

"Taking my first blow." Mira giggled and traced her finger down her neck and across her breast.

"Stop That!" Dogimana begged but his pleas went un answered as she walked closer and wrapped her arms around his neck, Causing her to stand on her tippy toes. He looked over to Haroshi just in time to see him stifin noticeably and one word rang through his mind. ' Jelousy.'

" Come on." Mira licked her lips and pressed her body to Dogimana's. He growled low in his throat and found himself wrapping his arms around her waist his hands moving twords her ass. " You took the bait."Mira laughed as she pulled her leg up and kneed him in the groin.

His eyes went wide as he fell over cupping his 'Sack' and groaning in pain. Mira giggled and took a few steps back. He looked up to mischief sparkling in her hazel eyes. She pulled her leg back again and with all her force smacked the tip of her steal toe boot into his jawbone, She heard the crack under her boat and laughed. He went down, and was out cold with a broken and bleeding jaw.

"My bad." Mira fell over laughing and held her side. When she finally composed herself she looked over to haroshi and gave a soft smile. He had also just been laughing very hard. " That means i win right?!" Mira shouted to Haroshi. He just nodded and shook his head still chuckling.

:::::::::


It had been weeks since then and Naraku had sent her to go on a trip, Her first 'Mission' to Destroy a village and get two shards. Haroshi was by her side to help. She was wearing an odd outfit much like Sango's and Kohaku's slayer suits but it was black with deep red amour...only less Armour.

She sighed as they kept walking. All she did was stare at the trees. This was her first real asignment. And she prayed she would bump into Nani or somthing. The gang probley forgot about her already, Haroshi was now her only real friend left. Dogimana and Kagura hated her much like Naraku. Kanna and Kohaku couldn't be the wizer.

Haroshi looked over at her. As days pass he could see the childish sweetness and youthful view on life draining from her beautiful eyes.

Over the weeks with Naraku and them she had grown colder, She barely ever smiled and she kept the same stoic face most of the time. Her and Haroshi had been walking for about three days with little rest. He could smell and ocean from here, Indicating they where not far from there destination. She heaved a heavy sigh and looked up at him.

"Can we do it tomorrow? I need to sleep."He looked over at her and grinned. He could see the fatigue all over her face and he knew she was hungry.

"All right. We will set up camp here." Mira nodded and fell over onto her back with a loud thump she, and looked up at the sky.

After a nice bath in a hot spring Haroshi found for her. She settled under a large tree and looked at the stars. How she missed gazing at the city lights and hearing her dads voice call to her to come inside. She missed her mother's phone calls and her neises laughter. Most of all she missed Nani and her car. She choked back another sigh as her eyelids drifted shut.

She woke her to early for her liking by someone shaking her.

"No! Haroshi I don't want to wake up yet. Just a few more minutes." Mira demanded not asked and closed her eyes again before she was roughly pulled to her feet. " Haroshi what is gotten in to you?!" she shouted and opened her eyes and slapped him across the face for being an anoying little demon. She stumbled back and bowed her head. " Sorry My lord i didn't relize it was you." He growled and grabbed her shoulders pinning her to a tree off her feet.

"My lord?" Sesshoumaru stared.

"Forgive me." Mira stuttered as she bowed her head further. Sesshoumaru didn't know what to think. 'She has changed.' He thought and was pleased with the change. He smelt several scents mixed with her own natural Jasmine scent. But the one that caught his attention was Naraku's, The bastards scent was all over her. He narrowed his eyes and finally spoke.

"Where is he."

"Who my lord?" She refused to make eye contact. He looked her over again and noticed the hand shaped scar on her neck. He knew he did it, And thought bitterly ' Nani will be upset at that.'

"Naraku."He growled again pushing her harder against the tree. " Tell me."

" I- I cant tell you." She shook her head and finally maid eye contact. He took a step back and let go of her shoulders ' Her eyes.' he thought. They were so filled with pain, sorrow and looked so lost. It almost hurt he himself the great Tiayoukai lord none the less to look into them. He snapped out of i when she spoke again " Haroshi back away. Do not interfere."

Haroshi seemingly did as he was told and just stood there glaring at Sesshoumaru's back.' If he hurts my Mira....my?' Haroshi thought oddly.

"M- Mira!?" Nani shouted and ran as fast as she could to her little sister.

"Nani?" Mira looked up and her eyes sparked a little but not enough for Sesshoumaru's liking. 'If Mira isn't happy. Nani isn't happy.' He thought as he backed away.

(Damn block again.)

After a while of Nani trying to talk to her, She gave up and left rather pissed at Mira's attitude. Haroshi looked at her form as she sat un a boulder looking at the ground.

"Mira?" He asked worry clearly in his tone.

"Yes?"She didn't even look up, Her tone was so quite and calm, He hated it.

"Are you all right?"

"I'm fine."Before he knew what was happening he cupped her cheek within her palm, And pulled her face up to look at him. They looked into each others eyes, He nearly gasped when he looked into her eyes. He never had before, It frightened him that the tough, determined warrior that refused to give up now looked so destroyed.

"Are you?" He asked tilting his head. She looked back up to him and knitted her brows together in confusion.

"Of course i -" Her voice trailed away. Haroshi's head snapped up and then he looked back to her.

"Did you hear that." She nodded. "Come on."

(Damnit all to hell!!!)

::::::

"Leave me." Mira demanded again."I wish to be alone."

After they had destroyed the village and killed everyone in it. She felt no remorse, No fear, Not even a single twinge of guilt crept into her cold heart. Every person she killed had a small cut in there forehead. To her it was a mark for the grave.

Mira walked from the village to a small stream nearby. She walked into the water until it was up to her waist and started to slowly wash the thick coat of coagulated blood and soot, From the burned village. She could smell the bodies already rotting in the mid day sun. It didn't even make her stomach jolt.

"God i am heartless." She remembered back to the village a person screaming as she slaughter their children. 'How can you be so heartless!' They had screamed. No one knew this but ever since she killed someone the first time, She had been crying herself to sleep. That stopped weeks ago. She had no more reasons to cry.

She didn't even know how long she was standing there staring down at the horrible reflection in the water. When she heard Haroshi call to her from the bank she looked up to see the sun setting. It was beautiful, Reds yellows and oranges. It looked as if the sky was on fire, The clouds where thick and looked like they where falling.

"I'll be at camp if you need me." Haroshi shouted over to her and walked away.

'How could she be so heartless?' She asked herself and walked to the bank to sit down. she looked up at the darkening sky, as she sat down on the bank the sand crunched under her. She kept looking into the water at her reflection. ' Have i really become such a horrible person?' She thought as her eyes burned with all well to known tears, That she would never let come.

She shivered slightly under her small blanket and gazed up at the stars. When her and Haroshi woke in the morning it would be a two hour trip back to the castle. She couldn't sleep, Why? She didn't know. Maybe she was nervous about seeing Naraku again.

Naraku, His name raced through her mind over and over. She didn't hate him as much as everyone thought. She clutched her blanket tight and was nearly in tears remembering what happened right before she left on this trip.
