* Late one cold quiet winter afternoon Keisume traveled through a strange thick forest in hopes of happening upon the next town while on a guest to search for her sister. Wearing a long black cloak, thick paw shaped snow white gloves and boots and carrying what appeared to be a blue cat doll in her arms she past through the thick snow and heavy bushes. Her ears peeked up as heard the sound of yelling. She looked around slowly as placed her doll on top of her head and slid off one of the thick gloves she was wearing getting into an defensive stance. She wonders where the sound come from as the heavy scent of blood on the cold crisp winter air filled her nose. She knew then it wasn't animals because she didn't pick up the scent of any preditorial animals near by. She jumped high into the air landing in one of the tall tree dashed off running to the direction of the blood smell. She ran at blinding speeds appearing invisible to the woodlin creature as she bolted by. She came to an abrupt stop looking down from the treetop seeing a group of several men beating a young slave girl who had obviously tried to run away or that's what Keisume thought at the time. The man in the center of the group beat across this girl's back with a long thick leather whip while shouting horrific graphic things her at her as the girl was huddled into a shaking ball of fear. Keisume growled angrily at the sight of this as shevanishes from the trees. A silver like swirl of wind appear infront of the girl as the man swatted the whip down at the girl. Keisume's glove covered paw appeared from out of the swirling wind. The wind slowly disbursts and dispells to reveal Keisume's large purple eyes glow with anger. Soon her whole body was revealed. She said with an evil smirk as she flashed her pearly white fangs with a small growl in her vioce as her tail flicked wildly behind her. * All you big strong men attacking this one little girl you should be ashamed... * The man holding the whip tried yank and pull with all his might the snatch the whip from her hand. * " Let go damn it ! " * He yelled at her angrily. * What's the matter tough guy ? You can't take it from a tiny little kitty cat like me ? Well to bad. * She yanks on the whip extremely hard while pulling it back tossing him and the whip over her. She turned around blinking some as he crashes into tree. * Eh... I didn't want this thing anyway. She throws it down and grin at the other men. * You wanna play too ? * One of the other growled angrily. * " You'll pay for that, b***h ! " * He ran towards her charging at her with a knife. Seeing this she yawned boredly and sidestepped out of his way. She wrapped her tail around his neck lifting up up off his feet into the and snapped his neck in two like a twig. She threw down his lifeless body like he was nothing more then a childs play thing getting bored with him like a child would and walked over to the girl who was cowering in fear. * Mew... How boring.... * She rolling her eyes. * Hello. My name is Keisume. Don't be scared I'm not going to hurt you. * She took off her cloak and wrapped it around the girl revealing a red and black kimono. The girl looked down and slowly opened her mouth to say. * " Thank you... " * She looked up for a second as her eyes grew wide seeing the man Keisume threw earlier holding the whip again. * " Look out ! " * She screamed but it was to late the had slashed across Keisumes back so hard the clother from her robes ripped on her back slowing a long bloody gash on her back. Keisume roared out loudly from pain sounding like an lion who had it's tail pulled. * REEEEOOOOWWW !!! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT !!! * Her eyes glowed again with scary red light surrounding them. She turned around to look at him as a flaming red aura surrounded her body. The cat doll on her head rose up and awaken with glowing eyes well. Keisume began chanting in an unknown languse while the doll held her paws together as a spell seal appeared on her forehead. Steam seeped from both Kei's and her doll's mouth as they open them up. The men stared for a moment in confusion and charged towards her again. The girl sat behind Kei staring in awe. A large stream of fire blew from both Kei's and her doll's mouth burning the men's flesh and bodies away instantly. The disappeared just as quickly as they came leaving 50-75 yards of forest missing. The in that area had completely evaporated as the charred leftovers of dead trees and plants was left behind. The doll on Keisume's head laid back down across it lifeless once again as she turned to look at the girl on the ground smiling brightly. * Gomen nasai... I was hoping I wouldn't get angry like that. * She scratched behind her head nervously and smiled. The girl stared with wide eyes in amazement. * " Wow ! That was.... I don't know how to explain it. * She shakes her head some. * I'm Yuka Mushin. Thank you for helping me... * She stood up weakly holding onto a tree. * " Oww... My ankle.... I twisted it while trying to run away from Kumai. " * She blinked some a bit confused. * Kumai ? Well you can tell me about later. First I we have to find shealter and heal you. I've traveled through these woods many times. I know where a hidden cave is... It's near too and pointed in the same direction as town. * Smiles brightly. * " Cave ? Oh well. Lead the way Keisume-chan. " No way am I letting you walk on your bad leg. Come let me help. * She gently picks up Yuka placing her on her back. Soon after she bolted off running at top speed. Yuka blinked as her surrounding looked like nothing but a blurr as Keisume ran in the thick snow. Keisume stopped at a large patch of bushes and trees clustered together looking like their was no way in. Keisume walked around a bit and pulled a thick patch of bush open like it was a door and entered inside. It was pitch black dark inside so Keisume's eyes began to glow yet again but with a calm white as if her eyes were flash lights. In the middle was a stack of fire wood from the last time she was there. While gently wrapping her tail around Yuka and holding her doll with her paws she gently placed them down while getting a fire ready. Keisume grabbed an arm load of wood and out it on the floor. She spat out a small flame from her mouth igniting the pile and lighting up the area fully. * There we can take a quick rest and continue. So tell me who those guys I killed were ?. * She said while digging in her pack getting out 2 special healing medcines she made. * " Well pure and simple while I was working in the fields at my parents farm he saw me and wanted me to belong to him. Kumai was trying to force me to be his wife. I refused. So he kidnapped me 2 months ago and took me to the city in the west. I hated it there so I ran away 4 days ago. He found me and beat me when you came... " Oh I see... * Keisume said while nodding. * " Um... Keisume-chan what's that ? " Oh this is some healing medcines I made. * She gives her two viles one with a blueish liquid the other completely clear like water. * This blue one will heal your wounds completely while the clear one you have to take a tea spoon full once every 6 hours for 3 days. * She looks at her sturnly. * " Ok Keisume-chan... I trust you... " * She looks down at the bottles a bit nervously then drank down the blue potion. * " Wow it tastes kinda weird but I'm starting to not feel any pain. " * Keisume nodded and smiled. * I knew it would. " Keisume-chan... What about you ? " My gash has healed already I'm fine. Do you want me to take you to town with me ? * Keisume said tilting her head giving her a tes spoon of the clear medcine and wrapping up her foot. * " That one tasted a bit weird too and no my family's farm is a half a mile away from town. " * Keisume nodded and gasped. * It's almost sunset we have to go. I don't want to have to kill again... * She said while frowning. * " What do you mean Keisume-chan ? " There's alot of wild animals here. They smell the blood in our clothes and try to attack. Plus I have to be somewhere very important. * Keisume got her bag ready as she put Yuka on her back. Yuka held onto the medcine vile while Keisume put her doll on her head and carried her pack in her hand as a small swirl of wind blew out the fire. She then ran out of the cave dashing through the woods as fast as she could. After 10 minutes of straight running Keisume made it out of the woods and to the girl's home. Several men was getting to leave to look for her again as Keisume emurged. * Oi ! I think I have something that belongs to y'all. Mew mew ! * She yelled with a slight chuckle. Her father and brother ran over to Yuka taking her off Keisume's back. * " Yuka-neechan ! I'm so glad your ok ! " * Her brother hugged onto her tightly while her father held her in his arms. * " We was so worried. How did you escape ? " * He looked over at Keisume and smiled. * " And who is this young lady you're with. " " Papa, This is Keisume-chan she saved me and slayed Kumai. " * She tells a very detailed story of everything that had happened to her before and after she met Keisume. * " What ? This small little catgirl ? " * She blinks some looking down at her being much taller and built for a man in his 40's. Keisume huffed angrily and folded her arm. * Good things come in small packages... Mew... " I'm sorry I mean you no harm please stay with us for dinner. " * Keisume pouted sadly and shook her head. * Darn... I'd love to stay and god knows I do... I have to pass. I have a sister to find... Mew... " At least Keisume-sama let me pay you for your kindness... " * She said while turning her back watching as the last bit of the sun as it went down. * No... I can not except paymest. It's is my nindo... My way of the ninja to help all who need me... I'll take my leave now... * She ran away disappearing into the night heading for town. Her loud call echoed around them. * Mew Meeeeewwwww !!! { THE END } (( I worked on this for like 4 or 5 hours... Seriously... ))
