I have no idea what to call this one so I'll call it SPARTA. XD

Kanuki was immediately silenced from any sound of laughter, as the smirk on his face slowly changed to pure disgust.

The fog hung thick in the air, seeming to suddenly weigh a ton on everyone's shoulders. Everyone except Kanuki.

Increased atmospheric pressure is one of the first signs of two things.

One, that Kanuki needed a cigarette. This, however was already taken care of.

Two, that he was probably going to tear someone's head off. This option was far, far more likely.

Then suddenly, in the blink of an eye, Kanuki was two inches away from The stranger's face, gently holding her chin in his hands and peering into her eyes.

"You know something about him?" He said, his voice softer, and more bone chilling than before.

"Yes. I haven't seen him in a while, but I have met him." she said, trying to not slap his face away like she'd do to anyone else. "I haven't told him where you are."

She felt the Good Dragon behind her. She spoke only to Tanny, but Tanny could feel that the dragon would rather be elsewhere and didn't like being around the other demon. But she stayed because she knew Tanuki shouldn't be left alone with Kanuki. Tanny deeply appreciated it.

Kanuki stood back, and put his hands in his pockets.

"My question is why Markus would disagree when I say that you're not m sister? What proof do you have?" He said, the smirk returning to his face.

"I don't have any proof. I didn't come to try to sell you something that I need to gurentee will work. I merely came to tell you that I was your sister. After stalking you from afar so long I figured you should know." she said. I stopped for a while, but I found you again after I was going into the forest to try to kill a certain black wolf, I assume you know her?"

Okami glared at the Good Dragon, her ruby red eyes piercing the fog to see her opponent.

She didn't like the stench of purity that this one gave off.

She wrinkled her nose, and snarled, growling through her sharp jagged teeth.

Kanuki was silent for a moment.

"Why would I know her?" He said, keeping the smirk on his face.

The Good Dragon kept a straight face, as always. Never snarling, always keeping her muzzle's pelt straight.

"Because you live with her, as far as I've seen." she said. "You do know she's kept the sheild down most of the time, right?"

Kanuki face/palmed in his brain.

"Why didn't I know that?" He thought.

"So? What if I do know her?" He said , sounding confident.

"Why don't you believe I'm your sister? I can't lie very well, for I'm close to the Good Dragon, so why would I go up to some random evil person to claim we're related? You're very dear to me Kanuki, and you should know that by the fact that I even came up to you" she said.

The Good Dragon's tail twirled, usually keeping itself curled, and twitched her ears.

Kanuki said nothing, his smirk replaced with a glare.

"Very dear to you?" He said, narrowing his eyes. "Why? If you've watched me, you should know the crimes I've committed, the people I've killed, the memories I've stolen. Why would Bether's best villain yet be so dear to you?"

"Because you're my brother, and I do not want to judge you on that." she said.

She had run into this conversation before with the Good Dragon. She herself complained about Kanuki's crimes.

The Good Dragon had told her that he was her brother, and it should not matter.

One of the many reasons Tanuki loved the dragon so much.

Kanuki smirked.

"Hmph, if I were you, I'd get over that affection soon. Though a brother is still a brother..."

He was gone suddenly, and he reappeared behind her, his hand flat next to her throat like a knife.

"A villain is still a villain." He said, hoping to erase her memory and get this over with quickly.

The Dragon needed to react now.

The liquad in her throat suddenly froze and wouldn't move. The Good Dragon moved away from Kanuki and swished her tail.

Tanny turned and pushed the blade of her sword-- the part that's not sharp-- at his chest to push him away.

"I have been watching you too long to give that memory up now." she said in a low voice, her face inches from his.

Okami roared, and lunged not at Tanuki, but at the Good Dragon.

Kanuki felt Okami's spirit, and made the water of the lake surround Tanuki, enveloping her in a water sphere.

"Now then, lat's get this over with!" Kanuki said, his glowing blue hand outstretched.

He probed Tanuki's mind, finding where the memory of him was.

Kanuki had to be careful though, if something happened to him while he was probing, both he and Tanuki could be in serious trouble.

The Good Dragon gracefully dodged to help Tanny.

For a moment, the Dragon disappeared and Tanny looked like her. Then Tanny seemed to have disappeared altogether.

The Good Dragon appeared again, and so did Tanny.

Tanny had turned into a Tanuki. She was at Kanuki's feet. Tanny's mind grew simpler, some parts froze so they couldn't move. The Good Dragon quickly disappeared into Tanuki's head, making Tanny's mind hard to read. She acted as a sheild.

Kanuki glared at the adorable raccoon-dog.

"If that's the way you want it..." Kanuki said, smirking again.

He had a spark of evil in him, as he kicked the low-laying Tanuki on the ground.
