Subject: A Break in Frustration[Open] Tue Dec 21, 2010 8:20 am
Once again here he found himself in the human world. Jumping between two lives. And the pressure was begining to build up onto him. It was increasing, building to the point where he couldn't take it anymore. Things were changing in his mind set. It was hard being both Wiseman and Pennywise. And for that girl. Penny. Regardless of what he said to himself to justify his actions. Gera Say was built and it was built upon immoral actions. And regardless of thought. He was an Oni. A monster a demon. And the more time he spent in hell the more and more this had become abundantly clear. Just what was he doing here? Just what was he doing trying to help a human? Just what was he trying to be? Here he was, practicing his boxing on a punching bag he had set up in the east side of the pent house that was owned by Kyro Corp.
Of course. He owed her a lot. And he had done many selfless acts in an attempt to protect her. To understand her. But regardless of what he did he found that each step he took closer into the world of Wiseman equally took him a step forward in the shoes of the arch demon. He was living two lives, not two half lives, two full lives and the struggle of trying to keep one out of the other was begining to tear him apart. Already he felt that his own power was begining to effect his judgements. The stress of taking these two lives had forced him to take a break here in the human world. But of course. It wasn't really a break was it? He gritted his teeth and dropped his fists. He had to hold back the majority of his strength to ensure that it wouldn't break the sandbag. His fists bandaged. He looked forward. Wiping the sweat from his brow.

He grabbed the bottle of water on the side of the table and squeezed it into his mouth, the cooling water moving down his throat as he made his way to the main room, he walked over to the door. Placing both locks on it. He was growing tired of everything. Mittens, hidden behind the sofa, peaking out at him. He looked down at her and grumbled. She looked at him with the same yellow eyes.As his own. He knew her thoughts, she knew his. He grunted and lifted the bottle of water and threw it down near her. Causing her to jump back. " The fuck do I want your opinion for?....Your just a fucking cat". A sad look reflecting in those eyes. It was a visble thing. At least to those who would notice. The more time that he spent in hell. The more time that hell spent in him.
Penny and Mittens were, for once. Divided. There was now something different about him as opposed to the cat. Wheras before, one who cared to look would only feel a soul practically identical to his own. But then. Mittens hadn't been with him when he built Gera Sey. She'd been here. Living the life of a normal cat. And a wonder if she regretted doing so.
Penny dropped down onto the sofa for a second, only to pick up the phone next to it. He dialled in, answer machine. Didn't much matter. " Wiseman here. I'm going to be absent for a couple of days. Just giving you and the boss a heads up". The message was in itself. Akwardly lifeless for him. With that he pushed himself back up and moved back into the room with the sand bag. Looking at the thing. He'd taught himself a lot in hand to hand combat and for the most part it was so that he could hide himself among humans. But then there popped up the question that had been ticking away all this time in Gera Say.
Why bother.
As the ruler of his own city he was more influential in most circles than Shiori. What did she have to offer him now that was of interest? A meow from Mittens at the door who echoed his thoughts. What use did he have for that? It would only weaken him.And as he continued to punch away at the bag. There was a growing laughter in his mind.

There was a conflict in him. A conflict that he was taking out on this bag and had been taking out on people in Gera Sey before he had decided to take this break. The part of him, Wiseman, and the other part of him. The one that had for all intents and purposes began to monopolise hell. The ruthless ruler who'd tamed the demonic dragon. Who'd put down the local demons by himself. Enslaved the survivors. The one who sat on the black throne in his city. That part of him had power, had respect. Had people who feared him. What did wiseman have? A friendly coworker who wouldn't hesistate to put a bullet in his skull if he was here right now. And a girl who had taken pity on him. There were times when the latter life had its own rewards, the smile of the girl for one caused the strange sensation of happiness within his chest. But did it really outspan the negatives? All that he had endured in these past few months. He had to really look at that balance. What was his humanity worth? 13 Silver coins and would it be tossed aside?
He jabbed at the sand bag again, forcing it back. Another meow from Mittens. He gritted his teeth and looked over at the cat who crept backwards. " Enjoying the life you've got here?..Glad, you don't have to deal with everything I do little bitch...ever tried wrestling a dragon?....not fun". The cat crept in and brushed against his leg, and for a moment that weight on his chest seemed to just lift. He let out a sigh and sat down, crossing his legs on the wooden floor. He pet Mittens and recieved a purr in return.
" Its just...not easy ya know?...".

Eye twitch. A tap of manicured nails on the wooden surface of the desk they rested on. And a sweating male receptionist now praying he might one day be able to still produce children once the heiress of Kyro Corp was finished with him.
"Is that another marriage proposal?" Her voice was even, drawn out. The male found it to be quite menacing and feared he might soil himself in fright. He could only slowly nod, a bead of sweat sliding down the side of his pale face. Another eye twitch and he placed the folder on her desk and ran out of the office, crying just a bit. Dispassionate eyes looked at the file left for her. Another suitor had come crawling to her grandmother asking for a chance to court her. Annoyance. Spineless weak willed men whose wallet was bigger than their cock.
A head peeked in. The only person brave enough to withstand her temper that had grown in volume of the past few days. "Yes, Karin?" Shiori sighed and looked at the young woman as she walked in and plucked up the file that contained another suitor and his credentials.
"Go home. Take a break. You have no more invoices and there aren't anymore meetings. We don't need you turning into a frigid bitch like your grandmother," she said and Shiori couldn't help the small smile that tugged onto her lips. Karin was a cousin to Kyouya and had a set of steel ones hanging between her legs unlike alot of the men in the office. It was the main reason Shiori never fired her. It was refreshing to have someone who would speak to her like a normal person, yet at the same time knew when to be professional. A set of keys was laid before Shiori and an elegant eyebrow arched. Eyes flicked from the keys to the grinning secretary. "Kyouya always has a spare pair up here just in case he loses the other ones," she explained. A smirk spread across those coral painted lips as french tipped manicured nails plucked the keys up.
Shiori rose to her feet, dressed in a gray mid thigh skirt, a red blouse and the matching suit jacket to the skirt. Her hair was pulled back in a nice bun that left strands framing her features. "Thanks, Karin. Take the company card and go have dinner with your husband somewhere nice," Shiori said as she grabbed her purse and sauntered out. Karin grinned.
"Will do, Madam," she chirped and went about organizing the last of the day's work for Shiori to see in the morning. Shiori said nothing as she walked the halls away from her office. People scurried to stay out of her way. The male running out of her office had warned the others that she was not in the mood to deal with others. Into the elevator and down to the garage. She stepped out and felt a smile beginning to touch her lips. She needed a drive. Kyouya would likely have kittens when he found out she took out her car by herself, but he would understand she needed a moment to herself to prevent her from having a breakdown and end up killing a client or worse.. An investor.
Her heels clicked, echoing around her in the parking garage only meant for the higher ups in the company. The other employees parked on different levels. She walked over to the sleek silver sports car. A Jaguar XJ220. She didn't know a whole lot about cars. But she loved this car. It was sex on wheels to her. She used the keys to open the driver side and slid into the interior, body cradled by the expensive leather of the seat. She tossed her purse on the other seat and closed the door. Key in the ignition and seatbelt tugged on. She then turned the key and closed her eyes as the engine roared to life. She pet the steering wheel.
"If only men were like cars. We women would have such an easier job at maintaining them," she said aloud then cracked up her music as she peeled out of her parking spot. The gate attendant jumped to open the gate and she took only a moment to peek before she sped out and onto the road. She knew where she wanted to go. Only one person would be able to handle her being this much of a bitch. "Pen. You better be home.."

It had been some time since Shiori had decided to make one of her visits, another thing that had added to his unfortunate stress load and general bad mood. He had a lot to do in hell, and still made it back here every single night to feed mittens, wait up a few hours for her and go to sleep. He picked up Mittens in his arms and took her over to the kitchen placing her down on one of the tops before preparing her some simple cat food. Whenever she did decide to arrive, she'd find things were slightly different since the last time. He'd brought hell into this world. Or at least part of his hell. He had several of his own soldiers stationed in the street, as well as two outside the penthouse entrance. He was a ruler of hell.
And that position came with a lot of dangers. And he wasn't stupid enough to come to the human world completely unguarded. At least. Not anymore. If she came. All eyes would be on her going up the street, and they'd likely follow her into the penthouse. Till what she wanted was actually established. Those he had placed here, knew who she was. But caring. That was an entirely different matter.
Their alliegences were to him. And him alone. They knew about the risks of this world. And knew of her own former connections to the Division. And her own vigilantism. She was a risk. Even if she was a trusted one. Penny himself sat down on the sofa after getting changed into some more casual clothes as opposed to the training ones he had on earlier. He turned on the television and gave a grim look at the news. Mittens just padded over to her food and began to eat away. Word Count: 303 Total Word Count: 307 Boxing Training: 1342

She wanted to speed so badly. The car was made for that. But she honestly wouldn't be able to handle being pulled over by a cop. She might end up murdering the poor bastard and have to cover it up somehow. Too much work in her opinion. She she kept to the speed limit as best she could, speeding only when she knew it was safe. Out of Metro and into East City. She knew the way so well. She had not seen him in sometime. But work had been so much and then he didn't show up himself to be her 'guard'. She sighed, wondering if she had lost one of her only friends. Penny was a bit more though. They had been through alot together yet in the end.. There was a gape between them. It wasn't large, but neither of them had sought to close it, it would seem.
She pulled onto the street of the penthouse. She owned it. She pulled into the garage and parked the nice car. Without a hitch she grabbed her purse, shoved the keys within then opened her door and climbed out. Her heels clicked as they met the pavement of the garage. She shut the door and walked toward the elevator. She dug out the card key from her wallet and scanned it. It opened and she stepped within. She hit the button for his floor then leaned back as the doors closed. She looked up as annoying music played. She would talk to the superintendant and get it changed.
A couple of moments and it stopped, doors sliding open and she stepped out. She stilled in the private hall the moment she saw the guards. She knew they were demon and she frowned. Guards? Really? Penny was strong enough not to need them. She moved forward. "Move." she told them, hand coming to rest on her hip as her wings fluttered behind her, reacting to the demonic auras.

They'd seen her even before she had got out of the car, those stationed outside the building called up to those in the penthouse, so that when the elevator doors opened they knew just who they were dealing with. And perhaps that would be their downfall. The momment she stepped forward and barked the order to move, the Oni just turned, looked at one another and then grinned lightly. " Ok let me look at the list". And despite the joking tone it seemed that there actually was a list. He pulled out a small note pad and then looked up at her. " Sorry lady, you ain't on todays appointments". A shared bit of laughter before flicking through the notepad again. "Thems the breaks lady, you wanna see the lord, you gotta wait till he decides to go to work, or make another appointment". That was about it for now. The demons didn't look as if they had anything else to say to her.
Yet, they continued to bar her path. Unfortunatly it would likely end in tears for them. And perhaps a permenant placement for her on that mans little list.

She nearly started to tap her foot as she waited for them to move. But they didn't. No. Instead they decided to make it all out to be a joke and her right eye started to twitch faintly. She had had a bad day already. Now she had a couple of macho guards deciding not to let her in the penthouse she owned. Slowly she tilted her head from side to side, her neck cracking. She was seething. She had been when she had left the office. She had come here to relax. But then the morons before her had to go and push the wrong buttons. Her hand left her hip and met with her other as she cracked her knuckles. An evil smile spread along those coral painted lips, a gleam in her eyes that should have warned them that they were messing with the wrong woman.
"I'll show you an 'appointment'... Cause your about to make one with death," she chirped in an almost pleasant voice but they should have ran. But instead they were laughing. She had needed a bit of her violence to be unleashed and the moron had just volunteered. "Gonna enjoy this," she murmured and both guards thought she was joking. She moved forward, her movements that of a predator and not prey. Her eyes gleamed with something nearly demonic as her wings flared behind her, her shouchou activating also and making her glow softly. Both guard suddenly took a denfesive stance, not believing what they were seeing. They had not thought this would happen.
She moved then, getting in close quaters in the blink of an eye. She smirked in a feral manner and lifted her hand and it struck out to her left, slamming right into the temple of the smart ass with the pad of paper. THe other was coming at her but she turned, stepped out of his line attack and summon Jigoku with a mere thought. She turned the blade and slammed the blunt side against the male demon's back. He yelped at the sudden strike only to then get a high heeled foot to the face. "Little fuckers. You never fuck with a woman who has had a bad day," she snarled and leapt after the first one she struck as he tried to get away. Jigoku was replaced by Kyrojin and she used the pole's length to slam it into the side of his ribcage. He went down a crack having been heard. She heard the other lunging at her and she turned, stepped forward and her hand shot up, grabbing him by the throat and she slammed him down against the carpeted floor.

The sound of the battle outside, well it was less of a battle and more of a sheer embarassment for the guards. Regardless it was something that would be easily heard, certainly over the tv. Penny had the idea that someone had finally gotten the balls to attack him in the human world. Or that perhaps the Division had sniffed him out and was coming to put an end to him. Regardless he moved towards the door with his killing intent full to the brim. Letting his own demonic aura be clear and wide. Bit of fear mongering. Always good before the battle. He unlocked the door, and quickly opened it. Before waiting to see who the person was that had so assaulted his guards he sent out a wave of telekenetic power to grasp and press whoever it was against the wall opposite.
Telekenetiks: Attribute, Strong.
To his surprise the person who had been behind the deed was in fact Shiori. He raised an eyebrow yet, for a few seconds just stared at her, not relenting on the pressure holding against her. Almost as if he was contemplating finishing the attack. Around 4 seconds later he dropped the pressure on her and looked around. " Always a pleasure....come in...". He turned his back to her and headed through the door, moving back onto the sofa and sitting down. Word Count: 230 Total Word Count: 1768

She heard the morons pleading for their lives. She wasn't going to kill them. But both had been in need of an ass kicking. Her wings flared as a demonic aura pressed against her. She rose from her crouched position over the guard and Kyrojin vanish, leaving her weaponless. That power made her own dance around. It was odd how spirits made her power grow at odd times. THe door opened and suddenly she was pressed back agains tthe wall and blinked, looking at Penny. It took him a moment to realize who it was it seemed and he just stood there. She sighed and finally he released her.
"Kinky way to say hello, Pen," I commented and walked to the door, giving the guard with the pad of paper one last kick before she sauntered into the penthouse. She closed the door behind her. "Also.. They started it. I merely finished it," she added as she followed him. She looked around and blinked. Alot had changed. But in a way she was glad he was making the space his own. She came up and plopped down beside him just as the news began a report on Kyro Corp.
"Oh God. Please shut it off," she whimpered, her hands lifting to her temples and massaging them. "If I have to listen to one more thing about that fuckin' merger.. I'll burn down the damned office," she grumbled.

His men would be fine, at least she hadn't tried to kill them. She probably could have managed it with ease. But he didn't really have many soldiers to spare. Finding new ones and training them would take time and resources that he didn't really have at the moment. She looked around and seemed slightly surprised at the fact he had rearranged a few things since her last visit. In truth, being the Lord of Gera'Sey did have one upside. Taxes. He had a lot of money left over, and decided to buy a few things for himself. She had responded to his telekenetic hold with a little more cheer than he expected from her. Particularly after beating down his guards. Or maybe that had actually improved her mood.
She commented on the news, asking him to turn it off, by the sounds of it she hadn't really enjoyed her time at work recently. He picked up the remote and turned it off. Nothing interesting on really anyways. He looked at her and sighed. " Listen if this is about me not turning up at work...I've been under a lot of stress recently and...I needed a holiday". He didn't really feel as if he needed to explain. However by the looks of her, she was running her to escape it all just like him.

She was grateful when he shut it off. She just needed a moment away from it all. She felt like she was aging. She was only going to be turning twenty-five and she felt like she was fourty. A sigh burst from her lips and she rested her head back against the couch. Her eyes slid shut and a faint smile appeared as he spoke.
"Meetings. Grandmother up my ass. And marriage proposals constantly shoved in my face. These men all see the dollar sign over my head and think I'm this dainty bitch who will follow them like a little puppy. Sickens me," she finally said, eyes fluttering open and she turned her head to peer at him. "I've missed you, Pen," she whispered to him and gifted him with a small, warm smile. "I feel better just sitting here with you."

So she sat down and started to relax, him however. Not quite. So she had been getting more than he thought she had. Grandmother on her back and apparantly now marriage proposals. If her grandmother was behind it, then it was likely something to put down her ambitions. A man to put her to heel, then a man that her grandmother could control. But marriage proposals were Shiori's concern. Likely the girl wouldn't accept any man other than one that she herself picked. Then she smiled, and that odd feeling of elation returned. That one he had thought about earlier. One of the positives of the wiseman life. And before long he found a smile creeping onto his own stoney face.
He put his arm around her and leaned back. " Well...closest thing to it recently was this really strange demoness...running about naked causing trouble...I had to catch her...when I did...turns out she was a masochist....wanted me to punish her...". He shook his head. Letting that story end right there. " The rest well....I've now got a city in hell under my rule....so...setting up laws....soldiers...some of which you've already met....You have no idea how hard it is to actually get demons to not try to kill one another....". He rolled his eyes back. "....And then theres the dragon....god....Let me tell you about the friggen dragon....". Eyes rolling back as he thought about Grimm. The protector of Gera'Sey. But of course. Penny had needed to defeat him first. Word Count: 252 Total Word Count: 2245

His arms fell over her shoulders and she leaned against him, resting slightly on his chest. This was nice. She felt relaxed and safe. She closed her eyes and just listened to him as he told of his stresses. The bit about the demoness made Shiori want to find the female and thrash her. Lovely. She was jealous over a male who technially wasn't hers. She tried to let it go and listened as he spoke of his city then of a dragon. Sounded like he had been the busy bee.
Shiori lifted her head and peered at him for a moment. Was she ready to leap the gape between them. If she didn't... would she lose him to that demoness or to another. The thought left a bad taste in her mouth. She was surprised at herself. But that closure with Jyn. It was like she had a choice again. But what would Pen do? What if he didn't want her? She couldn't let herself fear those thoughts. She needed an escape. Something she chose. She was tired of others making desicions for her. And... she hadn't been touched by a man in ages.
Without a word she would move. If Penny didn't move she would end up straddling his lap, her skirt hitching up and giving a glimpse of the lace covering beneath. She would look in his eyes, doe brown eyes showing what she could not voice. She had missed him. Wanted him. Desired him as the man/demon that he was. All he had to do as reach out and take her.

It was strange, he never quite thought anything would end up like this. Particularly with the start of the day he had. They’d not seen each other for awhile and now that she was here again all those little doubts began to flutter away. Yet, he couldn’t help but hold onto that part of himself. That hard stony part that was crafted in hell through trial conflict and resolution. Through his ultimate aim and goal in it all. Things however began to move quickly, she hitched herself on top of him, straddling him. Her skirt moved up just the slightest bit to reveal what was underneath. He could feel her heart pounding in his chest, in his ears. So much so that he almost mistook it for the drums that had ruled his life in insanity only months before. “ Another notch on the bed post little hound”. Laughter from within. The mask that had been part of Penny’s life since they had travelled to the past. That mad part of himself he’d been trying to force up back into its cage. Into its box.
But, ultimately he couldn’t argue with it. There were many men with an eye for this woman. That much was clear. And he felt that there was a place in her heart for each of these men somewhere. So, in those few seconds he couldn’t help but beguile himself with the question of. Just what did she want from him? Friendship?, she had this already in spades. Sex? He wouldn’t be a fool and complicate their relationship with a meaningless fling. He looked up at her, her eyes said some about her intent. But for him that wasn’t nearly enough. He returned her look with one of curiosity. Placing his hands on her side. “ Just what is it you want from me Shiori?...Just what is it that you mean by...this?...”. It wasn’t a rejection, so much as a confirmation. He needed to hear it from the horses mouth before making any choices of his own.

He made no move and she found herself in his lap, facing him, her legs placed on each side of his own legs. He didn't move her, but his moment of silence was making her rethink her impulse. His eyes lifted and met her own. She saw the curiousity.. but also a question. More than one really. She had sprung this on him. She knew he would seek answers for her motives. It was the kind of man that he was now. Ever since the drums stopped he had the need to fill the space with answers instead of simple actions. He had changed from Pennywise to Pen.
Finally he spoke and Shiori felt herself blush ever so faintly. Her shoulders slumped slightly and there was a conflict within her, his questions having so many answers and she felt like she might not be able to put into words that would hold the meaning she required. She remained where she was and broke eye contact with him, flicking her gaze to the side, his hands on her sides so warm and comforting.
"I..." she stopped and shook her head lightly for a moment, gathering herself. She turned her eyes back to him. She needed to be strong. "What I want... you. Pretty simple," she answered the first, but it was the second the would be harder. She gazed at him a moment. The only man in her intimate life who had never betrayed her. "I'll say this truthfully. I don't love you. That wouldn't be fair to either of us if I said that. But I do care for you. More than anyone now. I... want a chance to move on. I know I'm a human. I'll age and I can die. But... I want to be happy. I'm tired of being left behind. I'm tired of feeling like I have no one here..." she paused, realizing she was ranting just a bit. She gave him a small smile. "I want to try again. With you. If you want me. If not... we can go back to just boss and employee," she finished speaking and began to move to try and leave his lap.

Well at least she was blunt, he could give her that much. She was clear on what she wanted right now, and the hunger radiating off her like an aura. The second part, again blunt. Blunt and harsh. That part of him which contained the insanity broke for a moment. Letting it laugh into his mind like an echoing shout within a cave network. She wanted him. But she didn’t love him. She cared for him more than anyone else. Anyone else, at the moment. Corrected that dose of insanity. And as much as he hated it. He had to admit. It was right. Caring for him would only go so far. And the moment that tide shifted and she cared for someone else more. He’d be getting replaced. He would be little more than a seat warmer. He looked back at her as she decided to shift herself, moving to get off him. Clearly she was preparing herself for rejection. And perhaps he was preparing himself to deliver that rejection.
He wasn’t sure what to do, enough time had passed that she would have for the most part, gotten off him. His eyes went lucid, he was deep in thought.He then looked up, half heartedly outstretching his hand and taking hers in it. “….Just answer me this, if I was to walk this road with you….could you ever?…”. It was a simple enough question. But his own answer was determined upon it fully. He wasn’t willing to accept merely being cared about for the rest of the time they spent together. It would be unfair. On both of them to expect that. Word Count: 279 Total Word Count: 2903

She had been honest. In a very blunt manner. It was the kind of woman she was. It had made many hate her since she hated to lie about something that needed the simple truth. But then the truth was hard for alot of people. Many wanted to exist within another realm of reality instead of face the truth. She didn't know what else to tell him. She wanted him. Wished for him to be the man beside her. It was a bit selfish to ask it of him. But then the thought of losing him to another female shook her deep down with fear. She could not tell him she loved him because at this time she didn't. More like she couldn't. It was too soon for her to spout love after what had happened with Jyn. She had to learn to feel that love she had felt when dating Jyn.
She was nearly out of his lap, more resting on the couch, her skirt hiked up in an embarrassing manner, but she honestly didn't care. His hand stopped her as it took her own and held it gently. She met his gaze as he spoke and her heart fluttered with hope. She need a man to finish healing her. A man who would allow the seed of love to grow and blossom again and care for the fragile flower that love was. She didn't even need to think about her answer, for she knew it. "With time.. Yes," she replied softly. "I know I'm a bitch. I'm hard to deal with and I'm stubborn.." she paused and threaded her fingers with his, leaning her face closer to his. "I want to learn to love you.. I've forgotten how to love someone so deeply your souls feel like they are one.."

An awkward situation to say the least, there had been a sort of agreement between the two now. She could grow to love him. Well at least that option wasn’t completely out the window. Very few times an Oni could actually say that about anyone. Still it was going to take a while. And well, he had plenty of time. Well. At least as far as aging went. His current position was dangerous enough as it was. And then there was the added threat of being Shiori’s body guard. And now well. Being her...boyfriend? To him that sounded increasingly strange. But, there was still a threat there. The way that man had reacted in the club, the Kami. It had brought to his attention that Shiori was if anything. A girl sought after by many. And then there was the idea of her grandmother finding out about such a thing. The woman only cared for money and power. To her...he might represent something that would stand in the way of one of her resources. And despite being, arguably. Under her employ. Life could get slightly more difficult for him from here on out.
But was he bothered? Not in the slightest. Not in the slightest. Yet. Corrected that little voice. Reminding him of just how he was feeling earlier. Stressed to the point of a natural break down. It was strange though that the moment this girl came she had brightened up the room. Her smile making the problems of the day and weeks go away as if they had never happened. Or, at least that what happened didn’t really matter. At this point he began to slowly bring himself out of his own thoughts and back into reality where Shiori’s face was dangerously close to his and had been for an uncomfortable amount of time. Was a kiss appropriate? He moved his hand up to the side of her face, placing it on her cheek and then...moved it around to her nose and gave it a quick light squeeze.
“ Beep”.
He chortled and moved back. Relaxing himself for a brief time he then looked over at her and realised despite that being a perfect end to the moment in his mind...might not have been precisely perfect in hers. He just grinned and closed his eyes. Confirming it for her in own way. “ Alright then, I’m willing to wait for that...I’ll walk the road with you”. He opened one eye and had it look at her. “ Although you know. I’m going to have to think of a way to avoid being shot by Kyo”. Word Count: 437 Total Word Count: 3340

She wondered if that was the answer he needed. She was about to lean back when he gave her nose a playful tweak. "Ow, you ass," she pouted a hand coming up to cover the violated part of her face. But her pout faded a bit as he agreed to go out with her, but then did nothing more. She huffed and slid off his lap ompletely. She flopped down beside him, making sure to smooth down her skirt.
"Also. Way to kill the moment," she grumbled, still sexually frustrated. She and hr twin had the curse of an overactive sex drive that took forever to be sated even a little. Didn't help that a lot of her sex with Jyn had been a bit too vanilla. But she wasn't like Shioriko. She didn't pluck up sex buddies left and right. Her twin was a female pimp in a sense. she hadn't found a man who was man enough to tame her. Shiori wondered if her twin would ever find someone.
She was sulking just a bit and crossed her arms under her breasts. She thought for a moment and then stood, shucking off her jacket and started to unbutton herblouse. She turned to Pen and huffed. "Do I have to parade around naked for you to get the hint that I need you in another way right now?" She said to him as she unfastened onne button after the next, revealing the matching lace bra to the panties she was wearing. There was also a glimpse of the ebony tattoo encircling her breasts.

He was really just waiting for her to bring that point back up again, after all she wasn’t really on to leave it alone. But he was gonna wait, just see how long it took her before she snapped and finally brought herself to it. And oddly it took less time than he imagined, keeping that one eye open and watching her undress herself. “ So thats what you look like underneath all that. Interesting..”. He rapped his fingers on the sofa. Watching her as she “ paraded “ about. He smirked and slowly got up. “ Well. I wouldn’t say that you had to no...but it is a bonus...”. He moved towards her slowly sliding a hand down her leg...and then. He drew his head back and smacked her on the face. A head butt directly onto her own forehead. If it had been on the nose, it would have been a little more dangerous. But in this way. It would only knock her out. Not kill her. He made sure she wouldn’t fall too much, his arm around the base of her spine as she would lie there limply.
He placed her down onto the floor. Looked at the clock. He had about ten minutes before she would wake up dazed. So decided that it was best to get to work now. He headed over to the kitchen. Removed a champagne bottle from the fridge. He popped the cork. Took two glasses into the bedroom, left one down on the side and poured himself another, that he brought in with him. Moving back to Shiori. He grabbed her by the hair. And began to hum as he pulled her into the room across the floor.
Spoiler:
He laid her down, still humming as he got the ropes out from under the bed. He opened her left leg and tired the bottom of her leg and the top of her foot to her wrist. He repeated this action with the other leg and wrist. Both done it would ensure that her legs were firmly kept open no matter how much she squirmed. With this done. He reached out under her panties and made a check.Slipping a single digit inside her pussy, making sure it was moist and wet. Which of course as one had to expect from her actions earlier....it was. With that check complete. Penny removed a vibrator and a couple of love eggs from the drawer at his side. ( He was prepared for something like this?...of course he was). He moved her panties down to where the rope lay. And first placed the vibrator inside her. Watching it squirm. Then, he took a piece of medical tape, and applied the first of the love eggs onto her clitoris. The last one, he slid in beside the vibrator for a moment, not that she would complain being unconscious. He then pulled it out. Glistening wet.
Hand down, he inserted it into her ass. Turning the vibration function on both love eggs. He picked up his glass. Took a sip. And then stood above her. He slapped her lightly on the face. “ You, wake up...com’on....”.

The blouse opened and revealed lace covered breasts. They were a nice nice. Filled one's hands. She was slender, her phisique resembling a feline, her muscles smooth yet. Showing when she moved. Jigoku's tattoo was a dragon circling her breasts in a figure eight manner. Reirei's was on her lower back in the form of a snow leopard and Kyrojin's was the black mamba wrapped around her upper right thigh, the mamba's head resting along her inner thigh. The mischivious spirit had a tendency to heat his tattoo to rile her.
She watched him as he stood, wondering what he was playing at. Pen was an unpredictable male. She didn't even see the headbutt coming and barely had the chance to gasp in pain before she slumped and he caught her. The three spirits were curious, ready to defend even though Pen was suppose to be one to trust. They waited, wanting to know what he had planned for their Mistress. She was then dragged by her hair to he bedroom and Kyrojin giggled in glee. It was about time sometime made Shiori their bitch in bed.
Spoiler:
She would remain asleep as he went to work. He tied her up and then used toys on her. It would as they were turned on that she would come to with a started gasp of surprise and pain from her forehead. "What in the hell.." she whispered and blinked several times to cler her vision when her body shudder and she inhaled sharply. She couldn't move. She was tied. She turned her head to glare at her demonic boyfriend.
"You prick. I'm going to kill you if my forehead bruises," she hissed at him and started to struggle, her breath already beginning to become strained into slight pants as pleasure flooded her body. "Untie me, you bastard!" She demanded, letting out a frustrated yowl when she couldn't squirm free. And then her blades weren't obeying her. They believed she needed this moment of not being in control. This was a chance to let someone else be in charge for once instead of her running things and never truly being satisfied when sex was over. A gasp escaped her and she jerked in her bonds as fire flooded her body.

He just sat there on a chair watching her squirm away, unable to do anything about her current situation. She swore at him and he just let out another chortle. “ Oh don’t worry. I wouldn’t do anything to ruin those good looks”. Then she called him a bastard, causing him to laugh more quietly under his breath. “...Untie you...hm....let me think...how about....no...”. He took the controller for all in his hand and turned them up slightly. He stood and licked the fingers that had been inside her. “...Tastes as if you’ve been waiting for awhile...wouldn’t want to ruin that fun”. He leaned over her, taking the vibrator in her pussy in his right hand, working it himself in and out slowly. “ But then why just take my word for it...here...taste for yourself..”. He removed the vibrator and brought it up to her mouth. Plugging the thing with it for a few moments just in case she decided to shout any more profanities.

good lord this felt more like a scene for her younger twin, Shioriko. She had heard of the kinks the other had for her bedroom. No man had ever tried to do this. No.. they feared for their lives a lot of the time. She glared at him as he simple watched her. But his gaze made her flush against her mind's will. She then saw the remote in his hand and just stifled her cry of surprise when he turned up the vibrations, her teeth biting into her lower lip to muffle the sound. She looked at him with a fire of defiance. She struggled again as he took his time with the vibrator within her slick core, sliding it in and out. She grit her teeth, wanting to punch him for tieing her up. But even that anger was beginning to wane as the pleasure coursed through her, making her blood heat like I never had before.
"Pen don't you da-" she was cut off as he got the vibrator coated with her own juices into her mouth. She protested, words muffled by the object obstructing them. She glared at him, but it was losing its heat as each moment past. It dropped even more as the toy remained in her mouth and she tasted herself. A whimper sounded in her throat and a shiver ran through her bound body.

“ My my my...”. He looked down and she was making quite the mess of herself already. He removed his shirt and stood above her stretching lightly before looking back down at her. Her blush becoming far more apparent. And it was for more than simply embarrassment, he knew that much just by looking at the bed sheets. “ Seems we’ve got a bit of a mess here...its alright...I can help with that....”. He moved between her legs and sniggered as he opened his tongue and moved it up from between the lips right up to the clitoris below were the love egg was strapped on. He continued this motion for a few seconds before moving up and removing that vibrator from her mouth. He ran it across the lace of her bra were her nipples were and looked at her in the eye laughing playfully.
“ Are we having fun yet?”.
He moved down, kissing up her neck and then nibbling on her ear before whispering in it. “ So tell me....just what is it you really want Shiori?”.
