EP 87 - TRAPPED.

Tsukiyo led the way as he gripped her hand firmly in the darkness.Avyanna wasn't scared but she had no inkling on what to expect. Here she was venturing into an unknown , uncharted territory with this man guiding her ... Probably into the belly of the beast.

For all she could know , he could be deceiving her and might even leave her here to die. It wouldn't be anything new because half of her life was based on lies and deceit.

But for some strange reason , she wished that her friends where here beside her , talking and laughing ...

And weird enough , thoughts of Levi occasionally creeped in her head, wishing he was hear.

Avyanna immediately brushed off that line of thought and focused on the warmth emanating from Tsukiyo strong hand. They seemed to be going on forever until the finally stopped behind some rocks.

Tsukiyo placed his hand on his lips to signify her silence. Avyanna understood as she was the horrendous event in front of her. Shivers ran down her spine as she placed her hand over her mouth to prevent herself from unknowingly screaming. Even in her life as a mage , Never had she witnessed such a horrific sight.

It was the USHI-ONI with her human victim. He looked lean and emaciated , maybe because of the monster kept thrusting it's hips relentlessly against him. The man kept groaning in agony as the defilement continued as strings of white beads kept escaping him and was being absorbed by the creature.

"His name is Kanashii Yaku. He was my closest companion. Unfortunately he was taken by the USHI-ONI to satisfy its lust during one of its attack and I was not quick enough to save him. His wife unable to imagine what her husband was going through at the hands of this monster , died soon after his capture , during her childbirth." Tsukiyo said coldly. "Even among monsters. Their nature is ferocious. Tainted with immense desire , thoughts of savagely raping and violating men are always on their minds. When they see a man that strikes their fancy, they'll shoot out a webbing, toe him up and retreat into their homes. Then they rape the man and indulge in their essence. No matter how much sex they have , their boundless sexual lust is never satisfied as they spend all their time violating the man."

Soon the weakened man gave out his last pained breath and passed into the great beyond. The creature made a high pitched sound as it begin roaming about its empty cave , it's body seething.

Tsukiyo took out his blades and moved slowly towards the creature making to attack while Avyanna followed behind him.

Instantly, she was pulled back down and staring straight at Levi . He was very wary of their vicinity.

"We are leaving now." He said firmly , ready to fling Avyanna over his shoulders and carry her out of there if he had to .

"No we can't! What of Tsukiyo and those other people down in the village?"

"They're engaging in drunken merry making as we speak. " Levi said sarcastically and pulled her arm ."Lets go. Conrad and Percival are waiting to blow this place up."

"I'm not leaving Levi and I've made up my mind." Avyanna stood her ground.

"Look Avyanna , I don't know what that man over there told you , but we CANNOT fight this thing!!! Once this 'thing' captured a man , it doesn't show itself for a period of time , secluding themselves in their nests in the mountains . Then the villages in the whole region, Levi pointing his hands to the direction of the Zipangu settlement came to a conclusion that instead, a specific man should be chosen to be offered to the USHI-ONI upon its return. For a certain time there would be peace until the man was dead. " Levi explained .

"Point is , We're not the first persons that have decided to fight this thing. Other Humans have tried to slay this 'monstrosity' but are always bathed with a high concentration of mamono mana...Trust me , you won't understand. If it's a man, he will be changed into an Incubi whose mind is all but consumed with Screwing monsters. If its a woman, She'll end up being a "Ushi-Oni " herself. So whatever Mr Mcdreamy over there told you was a lie. You can't beat it. You can't fight it. All you can to do is run away and hope it doesn't notice you."

As Levi and Avyanna were conversing heatedly , the Ushi-Oni looked in their direction and spotted Levi in all his magnificent glory and handsomeness. Lusting after him, the monster rushed towards levi. Shooting out a webbing in his direction, Levi pushed Avyanna out of the way shielding her with his own body. Tsukiyo cut the web like rope with his Blades as the Creature crawled up the wall. Sticking out it tongue, it hissed at him in which Tsukiyo narrowly escaped the poison in her saliva .

John rolled the die. "Its Hero time."

"6'

"Triode Formation : Peals of Lightning!"

This attack was expertly avoided by the Oni who than leaped on the white haired man and pinned him to the ground with its eight legs. Levi's weapons were out of reach and he was already caged by this evil creature .

Tsukiyo grabbed her hand to led her out of there but she refused. She couldn't leave him Behind. We have to go now we can't save him anymore, is too late for him.the Ushi-Oni has chosen him and we can't fight it.

"Go! " Levi shouted as the Ushi-Oni was dragging him back to her nest. "I'll be fine."

"I can't!" I can't leave you"! Avyanna shook her head struggling to hold back tears.

"I'll be fine. Just go!"

Avyanna felt herself being pulled away towards the entrance as she lost sight of Levi .

What would become of him now , She feared.
