Number of Great Powers

Nora looked at the countryside pass by her as she watched from the carriage, she has never been out her village before other than the small town of her the place of her birth in England but she was so young so she barely remembers it other the smell of sea air. Her hands tighten at her kimono in nervousness at the upcoming task she had to do. She wore a yellow kimono that had wild flowers decorated at near the lower part of it and a green slash that tied it together.

"Have you been briefed on the mission?" Ranmaru raised his voice staring at the foreigner hard.

Nora turned her head slightly to look at him "Yes..." she replied quietly.

The effeminate boy simply nodded "Just so we're clear I don't care for you...you made our Lord and Commander have butterflies in their stomachs, I'm not your friend and I'm not gonna hold your hand on this mission if you fail Lady Nohime will have you instead, we're getting close to the camp so blend well in the Daimyo's clan am I clear foreigner?" He raised his eye seriously.

She stared at emotionless"I understand Ranmaru-kun...Do you hate all foreigners Ranmaru-kun?" she asked him bluntly, The blonde wasn't blind, she knew that he didn't like her.

Ranmaru glared at her before opening his mouth "Your very presence is an insult to our sacred lands, the very air you breathe the pollution you stink, and our own food you eat makes my skin crawl, you refuse to help our clan which makes me believe you're the Englishmen's spy" he spat.

She leaned forward and frowned at him" I've lived here since I was 5 so no I'm not a spy I just don't in believe cruel bloodshed...you don't have to like me but we can at least act professional and focussed with each other so the mission can be successful because it doesn't matter about my race or your pride but how this plays out" she told seriously with determination in her eyes.

"That's one thing we can agree on, Your friend will be waiting by the banner of Imagawa. Now go before you before waste more of my time' he spoke frustrated to find words.

Nora could see him blush a little at her telling him off, she bowed her head to him and got out the carriage once it was out sight she then started to laugh lightly"He's very cute when he blushes" she said as she walked the busy streets to her destination.

Okuni twirled her red umbrella with the white crescent moon on it nodding and smiling giving her blessings to every peasant walking by, she kept a close eye on the young blonde walking to the palace, when she saw Nora laugh and grow a small smile grow on her face, she hadn't really seen the young girl laugh before.

"Konnichiwa Nora-chan" Okuni bowed eyeing the green and yellow guards at the palace entrance.

Nora jumped at little from being surprised"O-oh Okuni-chan y-you scared me" she stuttered.

"Hm that's my job to help you stay on edge" she said smiling in her loose red kimono revealing her tattoo behind her back "Are you ready to meet Lord Yoshimoto Imagawa?" She spoke with concern bringing her umbrella close to her friend.

Nora looked at it in curiosity"Okuni-chan that tattoo?"

"Oh" Okuni looked at the side of her back, she then turns to look at Nora "It's the symbol of Izumo's greatest clan that perished several centuries ago even their name is an echo" she explained.

Nora became interested" You were a member of that clan?" she asked she walked with the woman.

"The clan was called Sekiro, but I'll explain more when we finish with Lord Yoshimoto" her eyes were sorrowful, Okuni gestured with her eyes to the gate of the palace. Nora followed her gaze and by the time she brought her gaze back to her she realized she was gone.

"What is she really?" Nora thought inside her head walking on the stone floor entering the palace doors.

The guards then noticed her approaching surprised to see a foreign girl "State your businesses" one they demanded gruffly. "Lord Yoshimoto sent word for a tea server, I'll be the one to serve him today" she said politely with a bow.

"Oh Gomenasai please forgive our rudeness..we just never expected the new tea server to be..foreign" the second guard with a beard spoke.

Nora smiled"Its alright I'm used to it" she replied kindly. The guards then began to open the gate.

"Go inside a storm is brewing Says our Lord I hope you'll be comfortable here" the second guard bowed his head slightly. He and the first guard let her enter through the large maple doors to see the inside of the palace.

Nora walked onto the property and took in the beautiful scenery as she walked down the pathway, She could hear the popping sound of bamboo hitting the rocks near the pound, by the time she got to the steps of the estate a eunuch had come to greet her.

"Welcome to the palace of Imagawa, if your the new tea server head upstairs, the Daimyo is busy with his game" he bowed. Nora nodding not before bowing in return and then left in the direction where the eunuch told her to go.

After a while she arrived at her destination she lightly knocked into the bamboo door to make her presence known"Sumimasen I did mean to disturb but I'm here to prepare you tea my Lord" she said politely.

Nora looked to see a chubby middle-aged man with small eyebrows and a dark hat on top of his head he looked up smiling "Ah your late but no worries dear lady please come in, the tea is warming up, if you can please add some tasty herbs they're good for the spirit" he spoke adding his eyes flashing a purple color.

Nora's eyes widen slightly at what she saw but quickly regained her composer" Arigato..." she bowed respectfully before walking into the room and sat down in front of the teapot and the other utensils. Nora began to take out tea leaves and some herbs and started to crush them together with a roller while out the corner she watched them play their game.

"Never took you for hiring Foreigners my Lord it's particularly strange this happened" the older man in Blue armor eyed Nora carefully seeing her mixed the herbs with the tea.

Nora poured hot water into a teacup and put the grounded tea leaves and herbs into it and then began to stir quickly with the tea brush to mixed them together once she was done she handed it to the Lord.

Yoshimoto took the cup sipping it gently "Impressive you must be proud of your work dear lady" the small Lord chuckled.

Nora nodded" Thank you I learned from the herbalist in my village, grandmother was quiet I'll so I wanted help ease her pain..." she said softly.

"Allow me to introduce you to Ieyasu Tokugawa, a man of much renown he's my commander but my ladies in waiting call him Tanuki" Yoshimoto chuckled seeing Ieyasu slightly flushed red from the half-naked girls calling him that name.

Nora saw the bulky man with dark facial hair and small onyx eyes eyeing her tactfully as if he was searching something inside her"There's something..off about your child, something darker" he spoke.

"Ieyasu there's nothing happening I assure you if I did know you would've already done so" the small Lord waved off the blue samurai sipping more tea.

Nora took a nervous a look at " Your right Ieyasu-same I didn't just come here just to serve tea..." she said as she put down the utensils and turned her gaze to him"I came here to ask you something...something a good friend hasn't been wanting to know for years..." she said plainly to him with soft eyes.

"The Monkey sent you as a gift to our Lord than? The blue Samurai questioned.

Nora was surprised he knew who it was so quickly "That...and he wanted to know if you knew what happened to his mother?"

Ieyasu sighed looking at her again "All I know is she left to Okinawa, I haven't seen her in 15 years, so the trail is most likely cold" Ieyasu explained.

She bowed in thanks "Arigato..." She pulled herself back up to look at him"Ieyasu-same do you know what she left?" she asked curiously.

"All I know is she was angry at her husband something happened between them..and she had blood on her kimono" he said grimly. Blood? Nora thought to herself, becoming concerned about what happened in the past.

"You seem more knowledgeable than other tea servers care to play Keyo with me?" The Lord waved his hand towards the chessboard.

Nora turned around to look at Yoshimoto and smiled at him"I would love to my Lord" She moved her body around to face him straight while he arranged to pieces on the board to play a new game.

"All this talk of Blood wouldn't help tell me more about yourself Nora-chan?" He smiled pushing the first piece.

The young girl couldn't help but to feel nervous at the ominous feeling coming from the Lord even though he treated her so kindly so far, it was the same feeling she felt from one. His Eyes flashed red when she pressed her piece on the board.

"I was born in England my mother remarried a Japanese merchant when I was 5 and we moved to the village he grew up in...a small farming village couple of days from here..." She said while avoiding eye contact with him trying to remain calm while she moved her next piece.

"Fascinating. I heard news from the south that clans are uniting and fighting each other for more expense of land..have you heard of Oni increasing their soldier's across the borders of the sea?" He spoke moving the piece on his right.

She could see out of the corner of her eye the way he was looking at her and it scared her.

"I've heard Lord Nobunaga has acquired something related to the Oni and..a recent attack on a normal village that had nothing to do with war" he smiled waiting for Nora to move her piece.

Nora twitched slightly when she heard her village mention but remain emotionless.

"Over in England are mostly Catholic a and Jews so they would call them Demons my Lord..." she told him simply"Queen Elizabeth and her Half-sister Princess Mary have been executing protestants in great number..." she said depressingly.

"Sounds like England is similar to Japan when it comes to Lords and Monarchs" he eyed her moving his piece close to hers.

"Yes...I remember the emperor ordering the executions of Catholics in this country just a couple years ago...my mother was afraid to let me outside..." she said quietly.

"I sympathize with your suffering my dear that's why I wanted to UGH!!!" He squelched mid halt of his conversation to see a sword impale his shoulder blade "Surprise to see my old friend" Nobunaga chuckled demonically.

Nora backed away from both of them while she looked at Nobunaga horrified, Ieyasu readied himself to attack.

Yoshimoto sheathed a claw tapping the tip of the blade that impaled his shoulder blade "You think one blade is enough to stop me old friend" Yoshimoto mocked the word his hands formed into Oni claws his body shifting and turning he sprouted horns.

Nora lost her breath when she saw Yoshimoto transform "So it is true..." Nora said quietly under her breath.

Yoshimoto looked at the Foreigner with a demonic look "I intend to kill the King of the Oni but I'll start with his whore!!" He growled swiping her.

Nora yelp in pain but quickly backed up, she could feel something hot dripping down her shoulder she brought her other hand to touch her shoulder and brought it to her face to see blood, it was dripping down exposed shoulder and collarbone all the way to her shredded kimono.

"You will not touch a human being! Demon of darkness, where is the real Lord Imagawa!?"Ieyasu shouted unsheathing his sword.

The Oni smiled gleefully "I am Yoshimoto Imagawa!" He chuckled demonically swiping at Nobunaga.

Oda Nobunaga chuckled shifting and turning becoming the feared Devil he was known as, his skin had become darker till it was black, sharp pointed horns grew on top his head, he grew longer and his to the familiar red Nora had seen on a number of occasions.

"You think you know true power Yoshimoto I'll show you true power" he spoke demonically wrestling with the Demon.

"What is going on?" Ieyasu asked the human gripping his sword tightly.

The Kyuubi could feel that his human friend was in distress and that she was hurt making him manifest in front of her ready to defend.

Nora struggled to stand up"You're...pant...m-master...pant...has... a cough...his...wheeze...soul...exchange...for...weeze...power..." She to him as she stood up.

"No, no this isn't... but..why!?" He exclaimed dodging out of the way letting the two demons fight like animals.

The Kyuubi growled furiously at both demon lords, the hair on it back arched and ready to pounch he charged and ended up tackling and clawing at Yoshimoto.

Nobunaga grabbed ahold of the other Lord's arm tearing it from his socket "Prepare to face the void old friend" he seethed grabbing the arn drinking the contents of blood pouring out.

Nora was completely disgusted by the sight of more blood, Yoshimoto howled in agony as he fell to the floor holding the gushing blood nub of his former arm, he glared as he watched Oda walked over to Ieyasu next"I-if I'm going down I'm taking you down with me Oda..." he said as his nail grew very long and sharp with what appeared to have purple fog and liquid dripping out of it. Nora looked at it and Oda in panic and jumped in front of the red-eyed demon only to be clawed in his place.

She fell to the ground with a thud, she never felt the pain she was feeling now it was tremendous, she her hand trembled as she held her exposed bleeding chest. She couldn't see that the opening around her wound was turning purple but she could sense something was wrong.

The Kyuubi rushed to her side to inspect her wound.

"Nora!" Nobunaga roared grabbing ahold of the lesser demon lord by the neck. Nora turned her head slowly to look at the enraged Oda with weak eyes "N-Nobunaga-sama..." she managed to wheeze out as blood dripped down the side of her chin.

Nobunaga clutched the lesser demons head who is struggling for his life "PREPARE TO FACE THE VOID!!!" He roared snapping his neck instantly dropping the lifeless demon to rush to his concubine. Her veins throughout her body had become a very dark purple, Oda could see sprouting at every spot of her exposed skin.

"Oni venom, I know one way I can do this" he growled demonically crashing his lips against hers, She felt something leave her body to see him sucking the venom through his mouth.

Though the poison had taken care of there was the matter of her bleeding out, she could feel herself already losing consciousness. She felt her body being lifted up into the air and brought against a large warm chest that held her close to it, she then saw darkness.

---------

The blonde feel something wet in her head along with feeling like a hand stroking her head making her stir and groan slightly in her sleep. Her eyes began to open slowly but winches slightly at the light.

"Oh good your awake I was afraid you would've been to Izumo to soon" Okuni sighed in relief.

"O-okuni-chan?..." Nora said hoarsely as she tried to sit up from where she was laying only for her to hiss in pain. 

She looked down at herself to see she was wearing a white kimono with sleeve off her shoulder to reveal wrapped around her chest and her shoulder. She then brought her attention to her surroundings to see that she was in a huge red tent with a lamp flickering with light in the corner of it.

"You succeeded Nora-chan you helped Nobunaga destroy the Imagawa clan. And Ieyasu Tokugawa is gone with what few remaining loyalists of Yoshimoto" Okuni explained.

Nora looked bewildered by this as she held her head "How long was I out? Where are we?" she asked her friend softly still trying to process everything.

"For a few hours but you were cold to the touch, your soul has not yet left your body so this is good" she bowed her head.

The blonde made another attempt to get up, she grouted her teeth through the pain and legs wobbled. Just then someone entered the tent stopping her in her tracks. She was surprised to see it was Ranmaru.

"Oh..pity I thought you would be dead so I can dance on your corpse" Ranmaru spoke sarcastically.

Nora just rolled her eyes at him before frowning at him"Your such a charmer Ranmaru-kun..." She told him sarcastically.

"Milord is sick the venom has left him ill because of you so I suggest you do something about it" he growled.

Nora's eyes widen at this"Take me to him" she ordered him curtly while balancing herself on his shoulder. Ranmaru cheeks turned a hint of red at the blond close contact with him especially since she was half naked.

"Get out then you slut!" He growled.

Okuni took her by the hand "I'll escort you" she nodded.

Nora ignored his comment and nodded to her friend as she helped her limp out the out the tent, the blonde could see it was night once she was outside.

Okuni helped her limp her way through the camp with few onlooking eyes on them as they passed by, the dark-haired woman brought her to the last and biggest tent at the end of the camp. There were guards posted at each side of the tent they both tensed up when they saw the young women come forward.

Okuni frowned at them"She has come here to help Oda-sama" she told them seriously. They remained silent letting the two woman in to see the Lord, sweating muttering in his sleep.

Nora looked at him with sorrowful eyes as she limped her way over to Oda's side"You stubborn arrogant man....why did save me knowing it would do this to yourself..." She said softly as kneed herself down to sit on the side of him.

He shivered from her touch muttering more

She closed her eyes and began to concentrate on her energy making the hand touching his forehead flow bright golden color surprising some of those in the room, she had a solemn expression planted on her face as she slowly brought her hand to his chest and the next thing everyone knew a purple smoke started to come out his chest. When the smoke disappeared the glowing stopped and Oda began to cough light as he tried to sit up.

"How did you do that?" He coughed.

The Demon Lord looked to his side see his concubine looked at him with weak eyes and small smile" My grandmother taught me that one's soul can do many things..." She brought her hand to his view to show him it glow brightly"Especially if you know how to channel its energy..." she told him simply.

He grabbed her face crashing his lips into hers "Mpphmmm" She muffled as she looked at him wide eyes being caught off guard by his action.

She felt an arm wrap around her thin waist bringing her closer to him, She surprised herself when she closed her eyes and started to kiss him back. He then pulled away to look at her.

"Arigato" he placed his forehead toward hers"Your welcome..." she said quietly still kind of flustered. He ran a hand through her long loose hair as he brought her close to his chest.

"My Lord um there are others in the room"Nora told him awkwardly.

"Let's go somewhere private" he chuckled both disappearing into a swarm of locusts.

Oda brought her to what appeared to be pond surrounded by trees, the moon reflection glistened against the shimmering water and lotuses.

He grabbed her hands inspecting them "Teach me how to speak English" he pleaded.

She looked bewildered by his request"Nobunaga-sama why do you want to learn English " she asked curiously.

"I want to experience the world with you see your Homeland once I expand my Empire, I wish to spend my remaining years with you and your family" he looked at her with soft eyes.

She was completely taken back by this"My Lord...the only family I have left is Naoki...my mother lost her mother when she was very young and her father when she was my age...I don't have any other family over there...and trust me the Queen and her sister haven't been" kind "to those who are a different culture of religion..."

"Than I will stomp those whores to the ground and you'll be able to rule England over the people."

Nora just looked at him in shock but then sighed deeply as she turned her gaze to the water"Trust me my Lord Elizabeth is much better ruler than her father King Henry ever was.. " she told him grimly.

"Why do you say both if not one?" He questioned.

Nora took another sigh" Princess Mary has a certain reign over a part of England but she's known as "Bloody Mary" over there" she told him plainly.

" I'm not surprised how the two woman turned out....they had to learn to survive in a man's world with a father who has been married 8 times but who also wanted a son yet kept having daughters..." she said as she sat down to get a closer look at the water"I'm sure even you had heard of the past English king sins with women and how he ran his country selfishly..." She said softly.

Nora took a nervous glance at Oda "I know you have been with many women my Lord so I can't help to be curious...do you have children?" she asked quietly.

"I-I don't know Nora" he spoke at a lost of words.

"I ask this My Lord because I do want them...very much but you don't seem remotely interested in the idea of it..." she could feel tears run down her eyes" A-and I'm also afraid if I somehow to become pregnant and the baby turns out to be a girl of how you will react..." she said as tried to keep her voice calm.

She brought her hand to cover her eyes, she felt Oda gently take her wrist and pulled it away from her face to look at her, She tried to turn away from him but he wouldn't let her.

Before he could lean to kiss her a voice interrupted them "Excuse me, my Lord, I was hoping to borrow Nora for a bit" Mitsuhude requested.

Nora jumped in surprise at the arrival of the new person"Mitsuhude-sama y-you scared me" She said as she held her chest.

Oda was obviously was upset that Mitsuhude I interrupted his leisure time with his concubine.

"Study?" she asked in confusion as she stood up.

"That's right we were supposed to study Astrology after you completed your mission" he nodded.

The young girl looked at the night sky at this, hurt I am told she had always liked the stars and the moon funding them quite beautiful" I think I would like that very much" Nora said softly as she looked at the sky.

Mitsuhude nodded "Well let's study the stars" he smiled escorting her inside.

---------

Nora spent most of the night learning from Mitsuhude, she paid attention to him great interest as he taught her about the stars and planets including stories that came with them.

"As you can see Nora-chan that star that glows brighter is actually the yellow planet" he explained pointing up to the yellow star.

"Yellow planet?" she asked in confusion.

"Yes this planet is yellow but it glows brightly because it's closer to the sun giving off heat, it's cooking the planet" he explained further details.

She looked up in the sky at the yellow planet" Interesting..." Nora said softly."My mother said that the Romans a long time had gods that had the same name as the planets" she told him.

"I don't believe in God's, however, Oni I believe, It's interesting that a civilization would name something without examining it first" he rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"Actually she told me Romans were very knowledgeable about Astronomy...she said they used it to study our universe as a whole and to create maps of space" the young girl pointed out to him.

"Hmm, it's snowing now, Nora-chan return to your tent quick please use this in case something happens", he said grabbing a sheathed katana from his table offering it to the woman.

The blonde now then saw snowflakes fall from the sky coming towards the earth, she caught off guard when the older man offered the katana to her. She reluctantly took it from him as she stood up from her seat.

"Why are you giving me this Mitsuhude-sama" She asked him.

"The Snow is just as dangerous as rain Nora-chan please if you can do this don't get distracted, go to your room and light the incense candles" he explained checking to see the clouds forming.

"I understand My Lord" she replied softly. A cold wind started to pick up and nipped at her skin making her wrap her kimono tighter to herself, Her and Mitsuhude began to walk back to the camp which was a difficult task due to the wind and a snow picking up.

She heard a faint voice not far from her, Nora stopped in her tracks and turned to face the side, the wind blew her long hair in her face making her move out the way so she could see but snow made her eyes wince.

"Nora let's move we can't stay here any longer!" Mitsuhude called out.

She brought herself to face Mitsuhude" Why? What's wrong?" she asked in concern as she walked over to the older man"Keep moving I don't want both of us to die!"

The faint voice rang out again Nora could hear it better this time, she made it out to be a female's voice.

A glowing butterfly flew in front of the two fluttering its icy wings

"It's her" Mitsuhude said worriedly.

"Her?" she asked worriedly as she watched the butterfly.

"I haven't had a visitor in these lands for a very long time it's been boring" a disembodied voice rang out in the blizzard, the butterfly flattered to a pale woman with white hair and a frozen kimono she seemed to be half naked with nothing on her feet, her kimono was loose with purple patterns across it.

Nora froze but not from the cold but in fear"Yuki-onna..." she said under her breath.

Yuki-Onna smiled gleefully "Time to collect more souls" she sported a scythe icelike she stomped the ground forming icesickles around the 2 the ghost pointed her scythe at them "Come! Face your death" she readied in a fighting stance.

Nora quickly pulled the katana out of it's sleath and repelled the inhuman woman attack, the blonde eyes began to glow a bright green as she glared at her, Strong wind started form around the two humans but it wasn't caused by the storm or by the Yuki-Onna. The Kyuubi suddenly appeared in front of Nora bearing it teeth at the snow woman with it tails moving madly.

"Do you think a Spirit will help fight a vengeful one?" Yuki-Onna spoke haughty swinging her scythe forming projectile icesickles coming her way.

The sickles shattered instantly before they could attack Nora to her surprise to see Mitsuhude with a silver katana along with his spirit animal, the crane.

"Think carefully of your strategy Yuki-Onna, we are not easy prey" he seethed pointing his silver katana at the ghost.

Nora just stared at the snow woman while her eyes glowed a brighter green, the Kyuubi by then ran towards the snow woman and sunk it teeth in her arm. Nora's aura began to glow a bright golden color keeping the strong wind from hitting her along with melting the snow in the air and below her feet.

"No! Get off me you Beast!" Yuki-Onna slashed his fur with her scythe.

"You were bold, you should've thought carefully vengeful" Mitsuhide said "Now we want you to go back wherever you came from and leave us alone" his eyes glowed white.

Nora grabbed his shoulder gently making pause and look at her, he watched her walk ahead of him as she slowly made her way over to the vengeful spirit her golden glow looking brighter as she got closer. The Kyuubi's aggressive nature died down and his bite on snow woman loosened when he sense the blonde coming over to them.

"Stay away Don't come near me!!!" Yuki-Onna shouted in fear.

Nora stopped for a second to look at her sadly"You poor thing....your death must have been filled with so much sorrow and hate for you to end up like this..." she said as she started to walk again.

"You don't know how much I suffered!! How much I like lost, the reason to become this thing in the snow, I was going to be Nobunaga's wife" she said in despair.

Nora froze at this and turned her head around to look at Mitsuhude , her eyes asking him if this was the truth.

"It's true" Mitsuhude nodded.

"Than he shifted his attention away from me to aquire more power". She turned to stare at Nora "He'll shift his attention away from you when he gets the chance!" She wailed.

He blonde didn't know how to process this as she brought her gaze back to the snow woman, she didn't know what to believe, while the snow woman words made her have a lingering of doubt she kept it quiet when she remembered how the demon lord risked his life to save hers.

Yuki-Onna turned her attention towards Mitsuhide. "I know who you are, I know what you will do after what he did to your own daughter!" She cried out.

Daughter?Nora thought bewildered "Tell me what happen?..." She said starting to walk again" What led to you death?...I think you wanted more then anything for someone to hear you pain..."

"Silence Whore!!" Mitsuhide shouted his spirit animal charged at the ghost straight to her chest, Yuki-Onna bursted into snow floating away chuckling "I didn't want to be alone" her faint voice catched Nora's ears.

"Mitsuhude-sama stop it now!!" Nora snapped at him curtly surprising the Lord great having never heared her raise her voice before.

"She had no reason to bring my child up to mask her pain!" Mitsuhide seethed.

"So what she was true" Nora said as she made her way over to the older man" What exactly happened to you daughter Mitsuhude-sama" she asked him seriously.

Mitsuhide looked Nora angry but his eyes were full of Sorrow "My daughter did what anyone else didn't she spoke against Nobunaga and he turned her into an Oni" Mitsuhide looked at the ground.

"My daughter...my beautiful Gracia, I sent her to Spain to live with her mother..but something worst happened she transformed and killed her mother along with other innocent lives in Spain.."

Nora looked at The man in front of wide eyed with horror her mouth gaping making her bring her hand to cover it.The Kyuubi had come up to Nora side and started to whine and rubbed its self against Nora sensing her anxiety. Silent tears fell down the blondes eyes as she looked at the ground"W-where is you daughter now?" she tried to ask calmly.

"I..killed her" he spoke grimly looking at the sword seeing his reflection in the silver steel.

Nora choked back a sob as this as she gripped Mitsuhude sleeve tightly as she tried to keep her self up"I'm sorry...I'm so sorry..." she said over and over again through her light sobs as she herself sunk into the snow.

"It's not your fault... I.. believe you two could've been friends...I know she would enjoy taking you with her to shop for dresses, I swore myself to never forget..and never forgive" he spoke quietly adding a sad chuckle.

Nora brought her gaze back up to him at this having a faint idea by what he meant my that"M-mitsuhude-sama revenge won't bring her back...just like it won't bring my grandmother back...it just a gaping hole that will never be filled...it doesn't help the pain" she told him as her grip trembled on his sleeve.

"There's already a hole gaped into my chest why repair what's left when you can fill it with something else. Let's go the others will be waiting for us and the Lord has a meeting with the Dragon of Edo" Mitsuhide explained.

"Dragon of Edo?" she asked in confusion as he helped her up.

"Lord Uesugi..with his wife Lady Aya and his.. Bodyguard Nagamasa Kuroda" Mitsuhide said.

"We are meeting them in the red lantern district" He said as she the snow started to die down, Nora looked completely bemused by this as her peachy skin turned bright red"T-the Red lantern district..." she squeaked.

Mitsuhide turned to look at the embarrassed girl giving her a sly smile "What's wrong with the Red lantern district Nora-chan?" He wrapped a hand around her shoulder.

She gave him a "really" look " Its a place for prostitution and opium activity...I swear my grandmother is going comeback from the dead and beat me with bamboo stick for going there..." Nora groaned as she covered her eyes.

"Well If your dead I bet she'll give you more than beat with a bamboo stick, But.. there's a chance you'll get to meet your friend Hideyoshi there" Mitsuhide chuckled.

She looked even more confused by this"Wait? What?" she said as Mitsuhude brought her back to her tent so she could change into more suitable clothing.

"Your friend Hideyoshi he spends more time at the red lantern district than the palace training" Mitsuhide explained.

Nora looked at him shock as she went inside her tent and began to change into a pale orange kimono covered in flowers and old Japanese buildings"He's such a goof ball it's hard to imange him like that" she told him as she tried to process it.

After she was finished putting her hair up she came out to discover that the snow was begining to melt.

"Believe it or not he goes out whoring along with Nagamasa, they both love their Sake, women, and song" Mitsuhide said.

"Can you tell me why this meeting is at the place of lust and drugs?" she frowned at him with her arms crossed.

"Oda Nobunaga is having a meeting there with The Dragon of Edo, and.. something else is happening there" Mitsuhide spoke rubbing his chin.

----------

Nora walked down the streets with Mitsuhude close by her side, red lanterns which how the district got its name flickered in each stall and building. Making the district glow red all around. Nora looked around besides the brothels and opium dens that it was know for it had stalls for jewelery, fabric, games, food, and even stalls that sold foreign items.

"Hieee" one prostitute giggled "would you like to come with us?" Another spoke seductively smokin a pipe.

Mitsuhide giggled slightly "I'm ok ladies but thanks for asking" he waved at them.

A woman bumped into Nora wearing a black kimono with a shawl wrapped across her face she wore onyx sandals her nails we're red"Oh gomenesai" Nora bowed in apologies to the woman.

"Oh can you tell me where I can find the stall that sells rich kimonos?" Her accent was heavy Japanese Nora accidentally looked down that she had very large breasts, her eyes were very beautiful giving off an aura of beauty.

Nora froze when she caught sight of the woman fully, a childhood trauma started to come back to her once she regonized what the woman was making her tremble in fear.

"Umm I-I think it saw down aways there" Nora shakely pointed.

"Oh Arigato you are a treasure, don't be a stranger Ai" she giggled walking down to the clothing stall.

"Did she call you love?" Mitsuhide asked.

Nora's trembling hand gripped Mitsuhude shoulder in a death grip making him flinch as she watched the woman go"Mitsuhude-sama get me to the meeting now"she told him curtly with a shakey voice.

"Ok" he nodded as they reached a large brothel building Nora could already here moaning, laughing, and music inside. Nora noticed besides Japanese women there was frogien women there as well,  Spanish, German, and an Irish woman were hanging on the balconies with There was a Chinese woman entering the sliding door.

"Let's find Nobunaga" Mitsuhide spoke not wanting to look at the other women.

Nora nodded holding into his arm tightly as a child would do to a parent still a little shaken up from her encounter with the woman from before and also due being uncomfortable being in this establishment. Nora could notice out of the corner of her eye men hanging around the brothel and inside where starting to take notice of her and began to stare at her with lustful eyes and horrible smirks.The trail was hard to find the brothel smelt of sex, heavy liquor and inscence and people crowding them. The blonde could have sworn she smelled opium and it was getting stronger as they went deeper in.

"Finally there's the door" Mitsuhide said in relief opening it to find Hideyoshi.. penatrating a woman as she screamed in pleasure as he continued to thrust inside the girl"Yes say my name beautiful" he moaned holding her tight "Ah ah ah!!! Yes Lord Hideyoshi more!!" She mewled.

Nora face turned the same color as a tamato as she gasped loudly"B-baka!! Hideyoshi! Wrong door" Mitsuhide stuttered covering his face at what he calls horror.

Hideyoshi cried out already releasing inside her panting as he continued to thrust shivering, he panted turning and wide eyes seeing Mitsuhide and Nora "N-nora!!" Hideyoshi called out.

Nora dashed down the hallway trying to escape from what she saw and heard"Where's Nobunaga's room!!" Mitsuhide yelled Hideyoshi flusters his words "T-he tttop floor!" He squeaked as the prostitute climbed off to suck him.

"Your information is appreciated!!" The long haired man spat shutting the door to find the girl "Nora-chan!" He called out.

Nora didn't know where she running but all she knew she had Hideyoshi having sex with prostitute stuck in her head and she didn't know if it would ever go away. Opium smoke started to cloud her vision as she ran through the brothal, running past a couple people a long the way.

"Hey there Blondie Remember us" a drunk man grabbed her hand, "Let's have some fun never had a foreigner let's see if she'll scream harder" another laughed as they began to rough her up, Nora looked at them in fear.

"I never thought I would be able to fuck a frogiener as beautiful as her" one of them said as he stuck a hand in side her kimono and grasped her bare breast tightly making her yelp in horror.

Before they could rough her up even more, One of the men was grabbed by the head and literally thrown through the sliding door "If you want her you'll go through me" Katsuie growled at men.

Nora looked completely shocked to see who her savior was, Slowly backing up as the men where distracted by Katsuie knowing being saved by him wouldn't lead to anything good, her hand feeling the wall as she faced the huge man afaird to turn her back on him. The men ran in fear of the demon headed to the door where there friend was thrown out.

"Your precious Lord is upstairs" Katsuie grumbled pointing up top.

Nora only nodded to him as she sped down a another hallway to find the stairs. As she was making her way down it she a female moaning in pleasure making her stop in her tracks from recognizing it. Nora slowly turn to a door where the moaning was coming from feelings of dread overwhelming her as she slowly slide the door to take a peek To see a man half bald, with facial hair around his face thrusting inside a woman. The woman moaned deeply in pleasure with a smile on her face, Nora cheeks turned bright red at this she made a little ep sound while quickly hiding herself behind the door, the blonde swore she was going to pass out from being exposed to so much sexual themes. When Nora heard the woman voice more clear this she froze in fear, she slowly brought herself to look through the opening again and her fear was confirmed...it was the same woman who asked for direction in the district.

She had a very good reason to fear this woman she didn't tell Mitsuhude in the market that his wasn't human but something very dark and dangerous.

"Oh Hino-Enma..your so beautiful.. I'm gonna..." he grunted as she slowly licked his neck"Shhhh release it baby release inside me I want your babies" she cooed.

Nora slammed the door to the side, pulled the man off the woman and brought out a golden glowing hand to the woman face making her hiss"Uugghhhh..my head" Nagamasa groaned rubbing his head.

"You cunt!! I'll teach you a lesson you'll never forget" she screeched lunging at her only to be blinded by the glowing aura that had surronded Nora, While the young girl acted brave and stayed in a defense stance she couldn't hide her trembling and the dark haired woman saw this making her giggle darkly.

"You thought I wouldn't recognize you...Enma-Hino...it's been 10 years but your aura still feels the same..." Nora told her seriously.

Oh Nora remebered her...she remebered her Well it was when she was 9 and she got lost while playing in the fields ended up wandering into the woods late at night and coming across a cave little did she now someone or more like something lived there. A beautiful soft spoken woman tried to lure the little girl into her embrace but Nora could sense something was wrong right away, the woman turned monsterous when the little girl tried to run away...Nora barely escaped with her life that night the viallgers came back the next morning to hunt for the woman but she was gone, this didn't sooth her step father and mother and step grandmother, it was a long while before they let her outside again.This woman who plagued her nightmares for the longest time when she was a child.

"Ahhh your that sniveling child that ran from me" she moaned feeling her chest"Is this your lover?" She chuckled demonically waving at the man who was confuse"Because he's mine and mine alone, once I have his seed I'll dine on his blood til he shrivel's like a prune."

Nora turned to look at the confused half naked man"No I don't know him" Nora told her plainly.

Enma-hino could see that the pretty childshe knew back then had grown into a beautiful woman and was still as innocent and pure as before "You haven't changed" she sneered showing her black teeth "But I can still kill you all the same" her wings moved behind her back.

Nora eyes started to glow green while the wind in the room started to pick up"Oh no Enma-hino your wrong about that..." she said as Kyuubi manfested himself to appear in front of her growling at the vampire.

"Are you my wife?" Nagamasa said covering his eyes, Nora looked bemused"I think I might have thrown him too hard..." She said to herself outloud.

"Enough talk, you die!!" Hino-Enma growled lunging at the girl.

Something silver struck the vampire she gasped in surprise to see a katana through her stomach "I might be drunk..or horny...maybe both..but this marks my first time to face a Yokai!" he smiled shoving the sword deep.

Hino-Enma started vomiting black puslike blood over the floor "Return to your hell from once you came!!" He growled pulling the sword out leaving the vampire screeching disappearing into a bat swarm. Nora just stood there in shock as she watched her childhood monster disapear, she could feel her heart pound hard as she held her chest, the Kyuubi rubbed about against her to comfort her.

Nagamasa Kuroda looked over at the goreigner seeing how beautiful she radiated from her Kyuubi "You saved me from my uh... sexual death I owe you my life fair maiden of the west" he bowed.

"Oh um your welcome..." she said in a lost of words.

He grabbed her hand gently kissing it tenderly "Your very beautiful...more than my ex wife..I would pledge to be at your side til Izumo welcomes us at their gates" his eye's rolled the back of his head as he fell onto the ground at her feet.

Nora sighed deeply at this as she shook her head, she lowered herself to the ground and turned him on his side so he wouldn't choke on his own vomit from his drunkness.

"Men...so blinded by lust that they don't even notice women could be monsters..." she said bluntly.

"Nora-chan.. I'm sorry I didn't.." the door slid open to reveal Hideyoshi looking at her in surprise"Your sleeping with him?" He felt angry and betrayed.

Nora opened her eyes wide as she look at this "What?! No?!" she said offended"I just save this drunken foul from being drain by a Enma-hino..." she glared at him.

"Be respectful Nora-chan this is Nagamasa Kuroda the hero of Echigo and the conquerer of Date" he explained getting the man up.

"What kind of woman do you think I am" she said as she crossed her arms.

"I-uh... nevermind just help me wake him up, he's Uesugi's bodyguard" Hideyoshi spoke.

Nora scoffed and began to shake the unconcious man to wake him up"Sir you need to wake up."

Kuroda groaned shaking his head "No..honey I.. didn't love her" he rubbed his eyes stretching. His vision blurred til it came back to see the exotic west he first saw "If there's one thing good about waking up is seeing a strong capable woman to have next to you" he smiled sweetly at her Hideyoshi glared.

" Your very charming...but Hideyoshi has come to bring you to your master..." Nora told him as she helped him balance"But you probably should put your cloths back on first" Nora said as she turned her head bashfully away from his half nakedness.

"Don't worry sweetie most women find me iristable" Kuroda smirked "When we get to My Lord he'll reward you, improving relations with your lord Nobunaga" he smirked pulling up his pants.

"I didn't want her to kill you...I didn't do it for a reward..." she said softly as she kept her gaze off him.

"All the more reason to reward you" Nagamasa begin putting on his tunic.

"Are you ok Nora-chan?" Hideyoshi asked with concern.

Nora could look at Hideyoshi in the eye after the act she saw him do" I've just seen a lot of....sex for one day Hideyoshi...." she struggled to say her face heating up as she did making hide it in her hand.

"You saw.. everything?" He said.

Nora could only nod in embrassement

"And his little ecounter as well" she pointed towards Kuroda.

"That stupid Oda...where did he get the bright idea to have this meeting in a brothel..." She growled under her breath.

"My Lord chose this place to be incognito" Nagamasa explained putting on the rest of his armor" Lord Nobunaga was ok with it" Hideyoshi piped "And I wanted to get to know those gorgeous women, til I saw Hino-Enma" Nagamasa smiled scratching his head in embarrassement.

She laughed sarcastically"Of course.. men!" she said as she threw up her hands in irriatation making her way out of the room in a huff.

"Nora there you are.." Mitsuhide spoke "What happened to you?" Asked with concern. Nora looked at him emotionally overwhelmed as she held her head"Can we just go up stairs..." she said queitly"I've think I've had enough of this brothel..."

"I understand.. Let's hurry, those whores keep following me and I'm sick of it" he spoke leading her upstairs.

Nora giggled lightly as she grabbed his arm"Believe it or not your actually a very attractive man Mitsuhude-sama...I wouldn't be surprised if they offered to sleep with you for free."

"I perfer to be with one wife but I thank you for the compliment, so are you Lady Nora, now let's go they could find me any minute" he muttered.

Nora laughed again at this, she was relieved by the time they made it to the meeting room Oda smiled at her when he saw her but she only crossed her arms and frowned at him sternly.

"Your late Concubine of Yamamoto" Uesugi growled before turning his head to wife who rubbed his arm gently.

"It's alright husband" Aya cooed her husband looking at Nora "Oh my look how much you've grown child" the older woman smiled motherly.

Jorogumo smoke her pipe nodding to Nora to sit with her "Have we met before?" she asked Aya in confusion.

Aya leapt up to see the young woman carresing her cheeks "your grandmother told me so much about you, I remembered you were so small when you traveled through the village" Aya smiled serenly.

"Wait you from my viallge?" she said in surprise.

"No I visited to see your grandmother and I saw how small you were when you arrived, you only saw me once when I had to return to Echigo" Aya explained.

"You knew my grandmother?" Nora eyes lit up at this.

"she was my children's nursemaid" she answered "But I let her go as she got old."

Nora was surprised by this information not bowing why her grandmother never told her" well a couple years after you visted you my mother Diana and my step father Yoshiro had a son Naoki my brother...he's 6 now..." she told her warmly.

"Yes.. I hope to visit the Honnoji palace soon, but right now politics are turning" she nodded sitting next to her husband.

Aya had a heart shaped face with dark brown hair that looked almost black, her eyes were chocolate brown she wore a gorgeous purple kimono with peacock feathers, her husband has been serious look on his face he resembled similar to a Samurai in the ancient paintings he was decorated in purple armor eteched with dragon symbols, Nora wasn't going to lie she was beautiful.

Nora turned to Aya husband and sighed" As for why I'm late.... I'll let Nagamasa-san explain one reasons why to you my lord ..." She turned her head to Oda"As for the other reasons...I don't really feel comfortable saying them.." she said.

Nora could tell when others looked at her disheveled appearance and emotionally drained eyes that she has been through a lot that night.

"Hino-Enma was here.. I should've known" Joroguno whispered"I'm so sorry child" the spider woman frowned.

Nora only nodded as she felt tears run down her eyes"I never thought I would run into her again....." Nora said softly.

She felt the spider woman bring her her into her embrace with her head rested against the woman's large breasts. The next thing everyone knew Kuroda and Hideyoshi came into the room.

"She's not dead.. I can feel it Kuroda only wounded her" Jorogumo whispered. Nora trembled at this"This is the second time she failed to get me...I don't know what she will do if she finds me again..." Nora said quietly.

"Reporting for duty my Lord!" They both said simultaneously before falling to ground tripping on each other.

"Your lucky I recognized her Nagasama-san....she would have drained you dry if I hadn't come by.." Nora sat up and told him sternly.

"Is this true boy?" Uesugi asked raising his eye at his bodyguard.

Kuroda hurried shuffling up "Yes milord if she haven't found me soon Hino-Enma would've had me for supper leaving behind what's left" he bowed.

Nora crossed her arms at him"When men clouded by lust they fail to see what's really In front of them."

"It seems the vampire had tried to slip In to weaken my relation with Nobunaga" he turned his to Nora "Thanks to you Nora-chan, you saved my idiot son to be consumed by the death of a walking vagina sucker" he smiled,  Aya blushed at the word.

"Father I didn't know she wanted my blood she seemed lonely and-

"Cease your babbling boy, Focus on your tactics and how your skill will save you. stop focusing on vagina's!" The older man growled.

"That goes double for you Monkey" Nobunaga growled "Y-yes Nobunaga-sama" Hideyoshi bowed his head.

Nora was bewildered by this information about Kuroda"He's your son " she said in shock.

Aya felt a little offended "Of course he's my son, can you tell the difference between both?" She asked slightly hurt.

Guilt fell upon Nora quickly"I didn't mean to offend My Lady I'm sorry"she told her apologetically"Its that I just learned about him today...I didn't know much about him I thought he was one of your generals..." she told her plainly.

"He is a general like his many brothers but he protect's his father and me when we travel" the lady nodded.

"I see " Nora said as she turned her head to look handsome, the blonde could tell he was quiet handsome.

"When you visit Echigo, please visit us it'll be honor to meet you again fair maiden of the west" he bowed respectfully.

"Sit down boy!" Useugi growled Kuroda hurried sitting down "Gomenasai father" he spoke.

Useugi then cleared his throat and became serious "You know I'm too old to tell you what to do" he said looking at his son.

His son gave him a sheepish smile making his father sigh deeply before he turned his head and stared at Oda seriously"Now that we got this child play out the way let's get down to business."

"Do you think we'll pull this off Nobunaga-Sama, trying to kill the Takeda clan takes immediate force and the most expert ninjas to pull it off" Uesugi said drinking his tea.

Oda just smirked at the other lord"They do have a strong ninja Kunoichi-Okatsu, but I know how we can slow her down and kill Shinjin Takeda" Jorogumo smoked her pipe.

Nora just listened them quietly as she watched them go back and forth with a plan of attack she would catch Kuroda taking glances at her a couple of times but she was too emotionally exhausted to think much about it, Jorogumo brushed Nora hair through her fingers making the young girl lean into her touch as she closed her eyes in content, it reminded her of when her mother used to do it...she missed her very much.

"It's difficult to pull off, Shinjin the Tiger of Takeda has bridged an alliance with the Sanada family including the 2 brother's, Nobuyuki Sanada, and Yukimara Sanada Japan's strongest warriors" Uesugi sighed remembering his fair share of battle with the Sanada's.

They have never faced Oda army though...or Nora-chan for that matter" Okuni pointed out to the lord, Nora turned her gaze toward her friend not realizing she was in the room.

Nobunaga chuckled "I'll repel them, Okuni take Nora-chan with you to attack Kunoichi at the far East side of the Takeda army, I'll deal with the boy's in the front.. Hideyoshi this will be your first time to be promoted as commander of my army, are you ready for the responsibility?" Nobunaga eyed the monkey carefully expecting his response.

Hideyoshi's eyes widen at this opportunity making him nod in agreement"Of course Oda-sama" He said detirminedly.

"Good, now Uesugi-sama I request your son to be Nora and Okuni-chans bodyguard, send your sons to help lend me aid along with your army we will crush the Takeda clan into dust and the Sanadas will be stomped like ants" Nobunaga smiled with Ambition squeezing his gloved hand emphasising crush.

Nora looked at Oda and then turned her head towards Kuroda at this,

Kuroda smiled, Okuni twirled her umbrella, Hideyoshi scratched his ear.

"I have a request though..."Nora spoke up.

"You may speak Ai" Nobunaga waved his hand towards her.

"While I don't like bloodshed in general I know we don't much of a choice but I plead with you that we don't involve cilivans in this bloodshed..."She said with solemn eyes.

"These are Takeda civilians they will defend their precious Lord if they get in our way that's on them, but We'll make sure that we'll kill more of his Soldier's" Nobunaga discussed tactfully.

"Thank you..." she bowed her head politely. The rest of the meeting was of them talking the lay out for their plan of infuriating and then the attack.

"Nora" Oda called out to her.

"Let's retire to my Chambers" he said softly stroking her face teleporting into his Chambers away from the Uesugi clan.

Nora stumbled a little bit when they arrived in the demon Lord's chambers due to happening so quickly Oda wrapped a arm around her thin waist and brought her close to him causing her to look up at him, she was quite small compared to Oda so it was easy for him tower over her.

He the over to bring his lips against hers, kissing her passionately. Nora moaned slightly as one hand rested on his chest and the other held his shoulder , she could feel him tugging at her kimono.

---------

Yuki-Onna collapsed inside a wet cave crying her Eye's out as ice drops fell to the rock floor creating an ice pool for her "Nobuyasu... forgive your foolish mother" she wailed staring at the ceiling of the cave.

"So you failed to strike out your vengance?" A disembodied female voice rang out. Yuki-Onna turned around trying to find the source of the voice "Who are you?" The ghost woman spoke wearily to find a woman with a black shawl around her head.

"I am Hino-Enma, and I failed to have a man I so adored until the blonde whore took him from me..just like she took your husband, who destroyed your life and your child" she spoke sadly kneeling down next to her.

"I'm friend..." She said as her eyes glowed gold"I believe we can help each other" she told Yuki-onna.

"I wanted justice for my son, I want Nobunaga to feel his suffering and feel his agony I want my boy back!!" She sobbed"How can we? What would you want with a pitiful Ghost that failed to act out her revenge" The ghost wiped her eyes creating an ice ring around herself.

The vampire chuckled darkly"You will...I promise you.." she said as showed her sharp teeth.

"If you promise to help me get Nagamasa Kuroda, The man hasn't released in me and I didn't get to have his child, if we work together I'll help you get revenge on the man that destroyed your life and murdered your innocent child" Hino-Enma licked her red lips showing her black and green tongue.

She then turned to look at the moon"Nora-channnn my sweet treasure you think your safe from me~ your so kawaii~" she said darkly as her eyes glowed more.

---------

Oda had by then removed Nora's clothing and made her lay on the futon. Nora looked up at the demon Lord as he began to remove his clothing as well. She blushed deeply once again looking at her Lord's naked form and his lose hair, Oda just smirked at her as he kneeled down and lowered his face between her legs as he held her hips.

"M-my Lord what are you-

But she cut herself off when she felt his tounge livk her vaginal,

She muffled her scream of pleasure, feeling him lick her walls ravenousing his appetite. On the other side of the door Kuroda and Hideyoshi were leaning against it, hearing Nora's screams of pleasure rang out.

"Do you think he's thrusting or eating?" Hideyoshi whispered "I think he's eating her, I don't hear slaps of skin" Kuroda whispered back Both men were turning hard hearing Nora cry in pleasure.

"Oh God!" she moaned out in English as she arched her head up.

The act the older man was performing on her was was all new and strange to her, she brought a hand to her mouth cover her shamful moans.

"I think she's speaking English" Kuroda whispered "I think so except I don't know anything about English."

"I-it feels so good"  she moaned in English.

She brought her hand to tangle in man's dark loose locks, Nora could feel her cilmax was about to come soon making her tighten her hold in Oda's hair"M-my Lord I think I'm going to cum" she said between her moans and couple seconds later she did right into his mouth, her sweet moans of pleasure filled the room as she arched back, flinching as her climax rode it's self out. Oda chuckled as he drank her juices hungryly, Nora just panted with hair spread out everywhere.

The boys muffled there moans hearing the young girl cry out in pleasure after her climax reached it's limit. The paper door then ripped open to reveal the two boys falling on the floor with their faces. Nora screamed slightly as she instinctively moved quickly over to Oda and grabbed her kimono to cover herself.

"We didn't hear you two having sex!!!" The boys simultaneously spoke in desperation covering their eyes.

Once she saw it was Hideyoshi and Kuroda she looked at them in complete shock"H-Hideyoshi N-nagasama-san" she said high pitched. Her whole body turned bright red as she tried bashfully to curl up in a ball to disappear.

Nobunaga's eye's went red and he started to growl, Nora heard this and knew it wouldn't lead to anything good she grabbed his face with her hands and kissed him deeply.

"Thank you precious goddess of the west!!" They said in Union jumping out of the window to escape the Oda's wrath.

Oda was a taken back by this but he wasn't complaining as he kissed her back harder, He lowered both of them back to the futon while still kissing her, one hand in her hair the other trailing to her breast.

"I have something I would like to do to you" he whispered trailing his hand across her rib.

"W-what?" Nora asked nervously.

"Would you like try it with me in my...other form" he smiled as his fingers shifted into claws.

The young girl trembled slightly but took deep breath and nodded in agreement remembering how last time how he tried to make the experience less painful as possible.

He smiled at her as he began to transform, Oda's skin started become a very dark black his body became more musclar and thick and teeth  sharp, he grew larger in height, his hair now glowed long down his back, a tail sprouted out behind him and his face now look a mixture between a human and a man.

"P-please my Lord...don't let it hurt" she said quietly.

She only received a growl he then plunged slowly inside of her making her gasp, her hymen had been broken from last time so it only felt uncomfortable.

Runes slowly eteched on his skin making a glow of fire, His thrusts slow at first then started to speed up as he let out monster moans. His large claw grabbed one her breasts and began to fondle it. He roared viciously pounding into her, Nora held onto his back as she let out moans, no longer feeling discomfort but now pleasure.
