"Gently rub the ointment on them, it will speed up the healing, and make it mire easy for me to completely heal them." Toshiko instructed and then frowned hearing the little girl whimper in pain. The parents were doing their best not to sob, and she was gritting her teeth. She worked faster, mumbling under her breath and her magic wrapped around the twins healing and moving over them swiftly.

Miryoku nodded and gently, but quickly, started to rub the ointment on the children being very careful not to hurt either of them and trying to make her touch as soothing as she could. She hated seeing people in pain and she only hoped that she could help these two small children since she really didn't want them to be in any pain at all.

Toshiko watched Miryoku, and then looked over to her. Closing her eyes she leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss to the girl's lips. She suddenly opened her bright eyes and gasped, her skin in a flash was healed. Then turning to kiss the boy as well, he too took on life again. Sitting back the mistress smiled as they sat up and then ran to their parents. Seeing them all reunited made the elf smile. She then slowly stood and looked to her servant. "Please grab my case..." she said and then accepted her payment and reassured the parents that everything was fine. She then walked out towards the limo and stumbled a bit. She then smiled reassuringly and got intothe limo, she hadn't been expecting the burns to be so bad... And she hadn't expected the energy drain from Kei yesterday, to still be affecting her.

Miryoku smiled slightly as she saw the two children wake up and then nodded as she got the case and walked with her mistress outside. "Are you okay Mistress?" she asked worriedly as she saw her stumble before getting into the limo. She then also got into the limo and sat next to her mistress looking at her a bit worriedly and looking over her quickly to see if she had any wounds or anything though saw none so she just hoped that she was okay.

Toshiko smiled softly at Miryoku and nodded. "Yes I'm alright... I just am more drained then I expected from running in with Kei . Closing her eyes she then let out a heavy sigh and then sat back against the seat. "I will take a short nap... The next customer is a ways out from the city." she said and was soon asleep. Though she then slid on the seat and her head gently fell into Miryoku's lap, her silky black raven hair falling away from her beautiful pale features. It was obvious from the first time the mistress saw Miryoku, that her power and energy had dwindled from her after she had collided with the other elf. She was usually never this vulnerable, but it seemed that she had bitten off a bit more then she could chew until she was back on her own two feet again.

Miryoku looked down at her mistress softly and found herself lightly stroking her fingers through her hair hoping not to wake her. She knew she was weak right now and she wanted to help in whatever way she could though right now it seemed trying to keep her asleep was the best thing she could do for the moment. As they were being taken to the next costumer she found herself rather enjoying having her mistress lay there and being able to be close to her like this... it made her feel good to be honest.

Toshiko hadnt slept so well in many, many years. The warmth given off by her servant, and the gentle loving strokes of her hand seemed to lull the strong mistress into her more. Sighing softly in her sleep, a calm, and happy smile graced her velvety pink lips. She shifted a bit closer to Miryoku, seeming drawn to her gentle and kind auora in her unconscious state.

Miryoku looked at her mistress then found a soft smile gracing her lips before she found herself softly kissing her mistress' cheek. Surprised by her own actions she looked at her sleeping mistress but only smiled more and moved to get a little more comfy as she felt herself drifting off into sleep as well. In her sleep though the thing that kept coming up was that she wanted to be held by her lady again and found that she really liked that closeness with Toshiko... wasn't that wrong in some way though? She was her slave after all...

Toshiko slowly awoke as the limo came to a stop, and opened her eyes. Surprised seeing that she was on Miryoku's lap she blushed deeply and slowly raised her body to sit upright. "Oh goodness." she whispered seeing her servant asleep as well. "Miryoku, wake... We have arrived." she whispered gently, trying to rouse the blonde.

Miryoku awoke just a moment after her mistress and looked at her then smiled slightly. "Oh... I guess I must have dozed off as well... you just looked so comfortable that it made me a bit sleepy myself." she laughed with a slight blush then nodded and got out of the limo holding her hand out for her mistress not looking to see where they were yet. "How are you feeling? You seemed tired and like something was wrong?" she asked softly offering a soft smile to her mistress hoping she was feeling better.

Toshiko smiled softly and then shook her head. "It's quite alright Miryoku, you don't have to apologize." she said reassuringly and watched her beautiful servant as she stepped out of the limo. Looking to her servant she smiled and then it dissappeared when she was asked the question. "I will explain when we return home." she said softly and accepted Miryoku's hand as she stepped out. Looking at the simple little house she walked up slowly, sensing a dark presence.

"Okay" Miryoku said softly noticing that her mistress wasn't smiling anymore and as they got closer to the house she could feel why.... well she thought that was why. She could feel a dark presence and wondered what it was and why it was here though she supposed she would find out soon enough.

Toshiko looked to Miryoku, and then took her hand. "A demon has possessed the child here, and I need to know if you can fend off dark magic if need be." she said seriously. Taking a charm from her sleeve of her kimono, she then held it out to her servant. It was a rune carved out of pine wood, and smelled faintly of flowers. "Keep that on your person, it will protect you enough." the mistress spoke with care to the blonde before knocking on the home's door. The door was answered by an anxious looking man and woman. Both not speaking but stepping aside so Toshiko and Miryoku could enter. Having read their minds, the raven haired elf headed straight upstairs, and opened a door. Sitting on the bed was an all to pale child, who's eyes were bright pure blood red, and her smile screamed demonic. "Sooooooo the all powerful Tosssshhhhiko comesssss to ssssee ussssss." the child hissed in a raspy snakelike voice. "I see. I have gained a reputation down in hell with how many of your kind I have banished and destroyed." she said and waved her hands in fast precise movements. Screaming in pain the child launched herself at Miryoku, but Toshiko moved in a blurr and threw the child violently into the wall. Speaking in a beautifully melodic language foreign to all in the room, the demon screamed and thrashed more. Toshiko was ready for another attack.

Miryoku took the charm and nodded a bit fallowing her mistress having read plenty about demonic possession and even helped her apprentice at once point though she hadn't gotten to tell her mistress about that yet. She was shocked when she saw the young girl and watched not knowing really what to do and was surprised when the child jumped at her and even more when she was slammed into the wall. She didn't know what to do... how to help... she had heard that if you spoke normally around a demon possessed person a demon could try to come into you... even if you had a charm with you. Though she trusted her mistress' charms and knew she wouldn't be hurt... though she still wanted to know what to do.

(fun fun X3 so how are you liking the rp so far?)

Toshiko growled and then looked to Miryoku, still chanting. The demon launched again, but the mistress kicked the child into the next wall, making a bit of a hole in the wall. Panting the demon hissed and cursed. "Miryoku! Quickly, I need you to grab my cross charm around my waist, and pull off the cross from the beads." she instructed, knowing when her servant did, she would have her beautiful and large elven sword in her hand, as if she was pulling it out of an invisible portal. "Hurry! I nearly have the child free and when the demon comes out, you need to give me the sword, so I can kill it." she said cooly and then threw more light magic at the child, making the demon scream loudly and begin to slowly fall out of the girl's body.

Miryoku nodded and quickly took the charm and once the demon was out and was caught off guard a bit as it loked at her and she was frozen in place though still had handed her mistress the sword. She wondered why she was frozen in place though for whatever reason her eyes were attracted to the demon even though she knew not to look at it... why couldn't see look away? It almost felt like her powers were being used against her and they were forcing her to look in that direction... was this demon so strong that it would do that without her looking at it the first time?

Toshiko took the large sword andswiped with it, cutting the magic strand between Miryoku and the demon. It screamed angrily and flew out of the child. Moving swiftly the mistress twirled into the air ns ten stabbed it down to the ground. It gave one last scream and exploded. Wispering the last magical words, and then slowly the sword turned into the charm as she reattached it to the rest of the charm beaded thread. She patted Miryoku's shoulder and then walked over to the small child. Picking up the whimpering and crying child she began to rub her back and her parents came up stairs. They found her and Toshiko handed the child to them, who happily cried over their saved daughter.

As soon as Toshiko's sword passed in front of her Miryoku felt light and like there was nothing gripping on to her and she looked away from the demon. She then looked at her mistress as she patted her shoulder and watched her a bit wondering exactly what she had done. Though she was able to use magic she wasn't able to see it... she wasn't that experienced yet so she didn't know that the demon had been threading some of her magic aura to try and use her body as it's next puppet. She looked at the small family once the parents were up the stares and smiled at them some happy to see them all happy and together safely again.

Wiping a single bead of sweet from her brow Toshiko then took Miryoku's hand. "You may pay me whenever you can." she said to the family who thanked her at least twenty times before she pulled herself and Miryoku out of the house, after using magic to repair the home, because she had caused a few damages. Getting into the limo she pulled Miryoku to her and looked at her. "You did wonderful Miryoku, you kelt calm and collective, which is the first thing you must do when facing a demon like that. Your skills have impressed me greatly today, you should be proud." she said and then nodded to the driver before putting the divider up once more. She then stroked her servant's hand gently with her thumb and looked into her eyes. "Do you enjoy being with me?" she finally asked softly, the power in her voice nearly hidden by the true curiosity in the raven haired elf's voice.

"Well... thank you... I've had to deal with that once before with my apprentice... she happened to find me that way actually... a demon was controlling her and made her come find me though I got rid of it... I just accidentally looked into the child's eyes and I shouldn't have..." Miryoku said with a slightly blush then blushed a little more still feeling her mistress holding her hand. She nodded right away without much thought to her mistress' question then blushed a little more unsure of really what to say since she just nodded and she was a little embarrassed for the fact that she really liked being close to her mistress... and it wasn't even close to how she felt around her apprentice... it was allot stronger... she REALLY liked being around her mistress.

Toshiko looked in Miryoku's eyes and shook her head slowly. "No... I want you to say it..." she said slowly and then squeezed her servant's hand gently. "I need to hear it..." she whispered slowly and then frowned looking away as the limo began moving a bit faster. "My last servant said that... And it wasn't true.... She slowly cane to like me, and spending time with me, but she had Lied to me... And I cannot have a relationship based on lies, when I need a personal servant. Do you understand?" she asked softly looking back at her servant slowly.

Miryoku looked at her mistress letting her see the slight blush on her cheeks though seemed to blush a bit more as she heard her ask her to actually say how she felt. "Yes mistress... I do like you... allot actually." she blushed a bit more then looked away feeling embarrassed and shy now that she said it and wasn't sure what to think right now.

Toshiko's worried eyes softened and she slowly nodded. "I'm glad to hear that. I really like you as well Miryoku." she said softly and then kissed the back of her servant's hand before letting go and leaning back against the seat of the limo. She closed her eyelids and thought deeply upon this and was enjoying not being alone anymore, it would be wonderful to have company in the weeks and hopefully years to come.

((I think we should time skip, and I think that Miryoku should try making a move on Toshiko because the mistress is too refined to ever make a move on her servant.))

(mkay skip to when exactly?)

((mabye like a few months later))
