There was once another world outside the human demon and spirit worlds that was destroyed by war, so King Yamma created a 'mirror' realm to the human world, identical to it but with NO humans or demons at all, where the refugees of this world can stay, thus creating the world of 'Heart'.

Yusuke and his friends are trying to recover a magic mirror that can bring them to this world that was stolen by a demon overlord. The mirrors magic activates and they are sent into the mirror world where all kinds of faeries live.
That is where our rp starts, With yusuke and the others waking up in what should be Sarayashiki city, but instead, is a grassy field with forest all around it.
This world is guarded by the witches, who seem human except for their magic powers, and their green blood like the other faeries have. To help them get back home is Saya, a witch with a cold exterior and heated temper, and a beautiful Fae known for rebellion.

Chiyo peered out at the strange group of people waking in the field. She tucked a long silvery lock of hair behind her pointed ear as she looked at Saya. "I wonder who they are?" She giggled and looked back at them. "Can i go say hi? Please?" She begged the witch at her side.

As the Fae looked over at the group of strange people. The one with the long red hair particularly intrigued her, perhaps it was because her own hair had no color, but whatever the reason, he had caught her attention.

"I'm going to go say hi." She grinned and stepped out into the field, the warm breeze blowing her short white dress about her thighs. She looked over her shoulder wanting Saya to come with her, but she knew the witch was more cautious than she.

"I don't see why you would-" the witch began to say but went quiet. "Chiyo... get back in the caravan. Now."

The witch drove a large green and gold caravan, the beast pulling it was a massive black ram, roughly the size of an ox. She wasn't normally so firm with her Fae counterpart, which mean when she was it was serious. She could smell them... Redbloods. She traced the designs on the hilt of her dagger, which rested in the garter belt beneath her skirt.

"I will go say hello to these strangers."

Chiyo pouted sadly when the Saya raised her voice. She didn't like getting reprimanded, especially by her. But her smile returned when Saya agreed to go greet them.
"This is so exciting!" Chiyo clasped her hands in front of her and grinned. "Some of them are human aren't they! I've always wanted to meet a human! Please can i come Saya? Please?" Chiyo begged as she sat there in the caravan. "I promise i'll behave!Just let me come meet them, please?" She batted her big golden eyes at the witch as she begged.

"Stay. I command you." Saya insisted. The collar around Chiyo's neck, which looked like no more than a ribbon-choker, would tighten to signify a given order, and the Fae would have to obey. "I'll be right back."

She headed over the grass to where the four sleeping shapes lay, and with her boot, gave one a light tap to the side. It was the big one with the high cheekbones. He started speaking in a strange language, rubbing his head as he did. He went quiet when he looked at the woman. He started speaking very quickly to her as he noticed his surroundings, and she grimaced.

"Oh... you sound like a rambling ninny." she mumbled. She tapped her left index-finger to the pendant on her neck, which featured a five pointed star within a circle, and then used that same finger to flick him in between the eyes.

"Hey! What did you do that for?" he asked.

"Sorry, but your native tongue is annoying given the circumstances." she told him.

"What are you talking about?" he asked. "How come you're not talking weird anymore?"

"Ugh, You're an idiot. Which of your friends has half a brain?" she asked.

"Hey, that's not very nice!" he replied. She walked over to the pretty druid boy, and nudged his side with her boot as well. He sat up, and like his friend before him started speaking in that odd language.

"My god, even a different voice it's annoying." she mumbled. She tapped her pendant and flicked him as well.

"What... was that?" he asked.

"I'm manipulating your ears and mouth so we all appear to be speaking the same language." she told him. "How the hell did you four get here?"

"To be quite honest, I was rather hoping you could inform us the answer to that very same question." He replied. "I last recall fighting some sort of Ogre and then falling. We should be back in Sarayashiki, but it does not appear so."

Chiyo felt the collar tighten and obeyed. She sat in the caravan, but was leaning out the window trying to hear. She honestly didn't mind being owned by Saya. It was a lot better than the alternative of being owned by some sleaze ball who would force her to do who knows what. Besides, Saya kept her safe and for that Chiyo would always be grateful.
A sigh escaped her as she straightened out her short dress. She watched as Saya woke up a few of the strangers and made it so they could speak in their tongue. It was something that Chiyo didn't quite understand, but it was a nifty trick. They had interesting voices, and the second one spoke oddly, even when he wasn't talking in another language. Chiyo sat and watched, hoping that one of them would look over and ask about her or something. She knew that if she called out and drew attention to herself then Saya would be angry and she hated making her angry. So Chiyo just sat there pouting waiting to see if she could go meet them. "I hope one of them at least notices me." She mumbled to herself, she hated being by herself.

Saya awakened and flicked the other two to adjust their language as well. A simple spell her people were well-known for, the ability to understand.

"Look, you four cannot be here. Your kind isn't welcome in these parts." She told them.

"It would help if we knew what parts these were, and how to leave." Yusuke replied.

"Oh my goddess you really have no idea do you?" the witch asked. Their stumped faces said they did not. Could it be that humans had forgotten about this world? That would explain the peace all these years. She gave a sigh and pinched the bridge of her nose, as if she had a headache. "Flippin'.... that means I'll have to babysit."

((you take Hiei and Yusuke remember?))

Yusuke got to his feet and looked down at the woman. "What do you mean you are going to have to babysit? Can't you just tell us how we get back?" His temple was pulsating, he didnt want to have to deal with this.

When the woman flicked Hiei in the forehead he grumbled and rubbed his third eye that was still concealed beneath his headband. He checked for the sword at his side and was surprised to find it still there. While the others spoke to the strange woman about where they had ended up, Hiei remained quiet and took in their surroundings. He sensed someone else nearby. As he looked around the area he found a small caravan tucked away neatly behind a few trees. Someone must have still been in there. Hiei nudged Kurama's leg with his foot and gestured over to the caravan. If this woman could have been playing decoy to an ambush of some sort, you could never bee too careful.

Chiyo played with her hair as she sat in the caravan. She was getting antsy, her pointed ear twitched as she caught the small one looking in her direction. A grin crossed her face. "Maybe they'll say something and Saya will let me come say hi." She could only hope. Chiyo tugged at the ribbon around her throat. Saya was the only one that could remove it, not that she minded wearing it, but occasionally it got annoying to just sit still in the small caravan.

((Between the eyes, not on the forehead. Also godmoding for just this post.))

"You're also an idiot." she told Yusuke. "If I could just tell you how to get back your whole world would know of ours as fact."

"So, I'm guessing it would be quite a complicated procedure?" Kurama asked.

"I'm talking to only you from now on, you have basic logic in your head." Saya told him. "But first, introductions. My name is Saya, and I agree to help you return home unharmed." she shook each of their hands. "What are your names?"

"I'm Kurama."

"My name is Kazuma Kuwabara!"

"Shut up Kuwabara... hey, I'm Yusuke."

"Hn..."

She gave him a glare and Hiei mumbled his name without much volume to it.

"Great. Now, to be clear, I have spoken my name and touched each of your hands with my power hand, which means if I wanted to, I could will your hearts to stop beating at an instant. So if you screw me over, you'll regret it. Oh, and don't be relaxed if you think there is a better life after death, because you were not born in this world, so if you die here, your soul will die as well." Saya said.

At first, Kurama had hoped it was a joke. But, after a moment when she didn't laugh, he realized she was serious.

"You... can just kill us? Just like that?" he asked, a bit worried now.

"Yes, it's called 'the spoken oath'. My people are known for it. We have to help dumb schmucks like you out of messes like this, so we have a little spell to ensure we don't regret doing so." Saya explained. "So, lets go. I'd like you to meet a friend of mine."

((my bad))

Yusuke stepped up next to Saya as she led them to this 'friend' of hers, he didn't exactly feel thrilled by the aspect of meeting someone else in this strange place if his life was already in this crazy woman's hands. "So you say you're people are known for this type thing you just pulled on us. Who exactly are your people and where the hell are we?" He asked as he shoved his hands into his pockets.

Hiei walked next to Kurama still grumbling to himself. "I don't like this place and I don't like that woman." He kept his arms crossed as they walked ever closer to the caravan he had seen earlier. The scowl on his face seemed permanent.

Chiyo smiled excitedly as she watched Saya shake everyone's hand. "Oooo this means she is going to help them. Which means i will get to meet them! real humans! And whatever those others are." She giggled as she watched them start heading in her direction. "I love it when Saya helps people. It always means more fun and interesting things to learn about." Her pointed ears twitched with excitement.

"You are from the realm called 'earth'... we are in the realm called 'Wind'." Saya explained flatly. "And you don't need to know anything about my people other than the fact that it's my culture that is forcing me to help you, so don't think we're friends or anything."

She led them to the caravan, and with this many males present, the Ram began to get territorial. He snorted and puffed his chest out, approaching all four males and pushing them powerfully with his nose.

"This fine gentleman here is called Hades. Don't make any sudden movements, he can be very aggressive."

"A pleasure to meet you." Kurama told it with a nervous chuckle as he pet it's nose.

"What he said." Kuwabara replied, trying to keep his distance from the massive sheep.

Hiei ignored the beast, even as its breath mussed up his hair. He had no interest in the animal. He simply stayed back out of its reach.

Yusuke looked at the animal. "Hey there. I don't suppose you work for this lady for fun do you." he looked back over to Saya. "So is he this friend you wanted us to meet?" He asked sarcastically as he eyed the ram once more.

"No you idiot, it's the one in the caravan." Hiei spoke for once, loud enough that they all heard his angry voice.

Chiyo sat still for once as she glance out Saya as Hades began acting up. She was trying to be on her best behavior, she was still hoping Saya would let her meet these strangers. She played with a piece of her silvery hair as her ears drooped. She was starting to think maybe Saya wouldn't, punishment for trying to leave the caravan when she was told not to. "Can I come out now?" she asked softly, her big eyes pleading.

Saya nodded to Chiyo, a signal that she could, and wrapped an arm around the Fae's shoulders when she was at her side.

"This is Chiyo. She belongs to me, so if any of you touch her, look at her wrong, speak to her disrespectfully, or have the slightest impure thoughts about her, you will regret it." She told them. Kuwabara was staring... this girl was beautiful!

"A pleasure to meet you." Kurama told her with a bow. Though Kurama agreed with Kuwabara, he was able to control himself better than Kuwabara. Saya looked to Kuwabara.

"The second you start nodding off to sleep, I'm going to slam a metal-toed boot down on one of your testicles." she told him.

"You're not a very nice person are you?" he asked.

"I'm a very nice person, I think very nice things... I simply choose not to act on those thoughts." Saya replied with a malicious grin. "Okay losers, get in the back, and if you touch anything, there is no where in this realm you can hid from me. Chiyo, shotgun."

And so the witch climbed up to the seat and grabbed hold of the reins, with a slight tug back the sheep approached the harness which seemed to attach itself to the creature. Shotgun meant Chiyo would sit beside her.

Yusuke gawked at the Fae for a moment before he looked away. "Yeah nice to meet you." He knew Keiko would be pissed if she caught him staring.

Hiei was surprised to also find himself staring, his eyes got wide, but it was the only clue. He mumbled nothing, merely nodded. Surprising himself for even acknowledging the girl.

Chiyo smiled and gave them all a small wave as she stood in her tiny dress. "Hi there, It's nice to meet you all." Her grin stayed on her face as she spoke in her melodic voice. These people were all so interesting. Their leader and the stupid one seemed to be the humans. The short one and the handsome man with the long red hair were something else. When the handsome one bowed Chiyo felt her face flush. She was used to the stares, but no one had ever been so gentlemanly. Most men wanted to kill her on sight, of just capture her and use her for whatever nasty things their mind could imagined.

As Saya climbed onto the front and commanded everyone to get in, Chiyo giggled. "Please don't take her too seriously, she isn't all that bad, she really is quite nice." She spoke more to the tall one since he seemed to be staring the most. Then she climbed up and sat herself next to Saya. She turned around and watched as the others climbed in and got seated.

Yusuke sat with his arms folded across his chest. "This whole situation is weird. Did anyone else pick up on what that woman said? She owned the other girl. What the hell does that mean?" he grumbled as he tried to figure things out.

((photos :: caravan4.jpg picture by Littledarkling131 - Photobucket << model of the basic idea of the inside of the caravan))

"That ribbon on her neck looked similar to the slave collars in demon world. Perhaps she means what she means?" Kurama said.

"That's sick!" Kuwabara whispered as they got into the caravan. "You can't own people." The ride jolted forward and was anything but smooth, but when they sat on the benches it was, slightly, smoother.

Outside, where the others could not hear them, Saya spoke to Chiyo.

"I don't want you getting friendly with them. There was no rape among our kind before the influence of humans. I don't trust them." she said seriously. "Stay at my side 24/7 with me until we are rid of them."

Yusuke looked at Kurama. "Slave collar?" He glanced over towards the front of the caravan where the two women were. "She sure didn't look or act like any slave i've ever seen." He crossed his arms and let out a frustrated sigh.

Hiei scowled. "It's pathetic, people who let themselves become slaves." He couldn't stand the thought of someone owning him. For once he agreed with Kuwabara.

Chiyo looked over at Saya. "But Saya! They all seem so interesting! I promise I'll..." Her voice trailed off as her pointed ears picked up part of their conversation. She whipped around her eyes almost boring a hole through the caravan. "They are talking about me. That one thinks i'm pathetic." Her fair skin turned red as she felt the anger boil. It was one of the few things she hated. When people thought her useless or incapable

"Which one?" Saya asked. Psh, she didn't even have to ask, she could guess after first impression. Without much effort, she reached back and knocked three times on the wood behind her. The four inside the caravan would hear it. Then, three things happened.

First, the back door to the caravan popped open. Second, a great force would seize Hiei's wrist, and rip him out the door with enough power to send him flying several feet down the road behind the caravan and smacking him into the ground. Finally, the door slammed shut behind him.

Kurama stared, open mouthed.

"Is... is he okay?" Kuwabara asked hesitantly. It was official... the girl with the pointed hat scared him.

Yusuke stared wide eyed at the back door. "D-Did he really just... Shit, we are no match for this crazy woman." He went to get up and open the back door but fell back to his seat when the caravan hit a bump.

Chiyo looked at Saya. "You threw him out didn't you." she huffed. "Why couldn't you let me go mess with them. I could have had some fun that way." She whirled around when she heard an angry little voice behind her. "You!" She was so surprised she almost fell off her seat and off the caravan.

Hiei sat up, his face red. "How dare that woman!" He got to his feet furious and took off sprinting after the others, well, more so after the woman that had just flung him from the moving caravan. With his inhuman speed he caught up to the convoy and swung himself up on top. He scrambled across the roof until he stopped just behind the witch and her companion. "What the hell is your problem?" he asked her.

"You broke one of my rules. Now get off my property." Saya replied to Hiei Coldly. They hit a bump, which would cause Hiei to fall off the caravan, even though the bump wasn't that bad for anyone else. "-And find your own way home prick-shrimp."

"I'm not sure which one would be scarier when mad. Hiei or Saya." Kuwabara said.

"I don't normally underestimate Hiei... but I'm pretty sure he couldn't stay angry at her for a very long time." Kurama admitted. "Plus... we know what powers Hiei has, and I have a feeling we've only had a taste of the ability our escort possesses."

Yusuke heard Hiei's voice as he argued with the witch. "Great, the midget is going to get us in even more trouble." He got up and banged on the wall of the caravan. "You can't leave him! We need him!" he beat his fist against the wall again. "Are you listening to me?"

When Hiei was thrown off the caravan, he rolled but quickly got to his feet and took off after the stupid caravan once more. He grumbled to himself as he jumped from tree to tree in effort to catch up. "She is a challenge, I'll give her that much." At least she wasn't a dull opponent. He launched himself and landed smoothing on top of the caravan once more. "Listen witch. I didn't break your rules and i would prefer it if i didn't have to be here either, but i will not leave my friends alone with you."

Chiyo looked at him, her golden eyes big and bright. "I'm not pathetic you know, and i am not a slave." she huffed, her silvery hair being blown about her face as they drove. "Do not think me as being the average person my dear demon." She sighed, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath. Then a smile reappeared on her face. "Saya, can i go back and talk with them? Please?"

Hiei was surprised to hear the Fae speak to him so forcefully, she seemed to air headed, like Boton. Perhaps there was more to these two women than he had originally given them credit. "Fine, I apologize. Now may i get back in i am tired of being thrown off and out of this thing."

Saya was honestly thinking of making him beg Chiyo for forgiveness... but she had a feeling there would be other times she could make him squirm.

"You may ride shotgun while Chiyo goes into the caravan for a bit to start on lunch. Canned Spiced Beef, bread and wine... plus i think we still have that wheel of cheese hanging." She told Hiei, and Chiyo to some extent. "Just a warning, your friends get too close to her and I'm cutting off your dick first."

"Yusuke calm down. I'm sure she won't leave Hiei without going back for him." Kurama assured Yusuke, despite having doubt in his own words.

"I think we're slowing down." Kuwabara observed.

Hiei waited for the Fae to move before he slipped down into her seat. He folded his arms and grumbled before he looked over at the witch. "So if you own her and she isn't a slave, how the hell does that relationship work?" He still didn't like the idea of someone being owned. There was something strange about the Fae, he just couldn't figure out what. "And you don't have to worry about anyone but Kuwabara. He's an idiot that doesn't know how to control himself around something pretty." He glanced sideways at her, wondering if he would get any real answers.

Yusuke turned around when the door opened. But he was surprised when the Chiyo girl walked in and not Hiei. "What are you doing here?"

Chiyo giggled. "I'm making lunch silly. Your angry little friend is up front with Saya." She turned and looked at the other, her eyes still drawn to the one with red hair. "So Tell me about yourselves, please?" She looked at them her big eyes pleading. "I've never met people not from here." She brushed a lock of silver hair from her eyes as she looked at them.

"Technically she is my slave. I bought her from a trader for a bag of gold. But only I may treat her like a slave, so when people like you disrespect her- I find ways to make them regret it." Saya explained. "And if your big stupid friend doesn't keep it in his pants, I'm still removing the vital male organ from all four of you, and leaving you on the side of the road." Hiei would be able to tell she wasn't kidding, there was a darkness to her tone of voice.

Inside the caravan, Kurama gave a warm smile, and was glad to oblige her request.

"We're from a country on Earth called 'Japan', it is made up of four islands..." he began. He explained a little bit about Japan, and it sounded a lot like the island country of Saiid here. Japan was probably their version of Saiid, after all, wind and earth were mirror worlds to one another.
Kurama then went on to give a brief description of the four of them, how they met, why they are working together, and the like. Kuwabara just stared. This girl was amazing, not as lovely as Yukina mind you, but very very close.

Hiei, looked at the woman and swallowed the lump in his throat. If that idiot doesn't keep himself under control I will castrate him myself. He thought. "So why would someone such as yourself require a slave? You can obviously do whatever you need to yourself." He was still curious, their relationship seemed like no other master-slave relationship he had ever seen.

Chiyo listened intently as Kurama spoke, a smile growing on her face. When he spoke of Japan she pictured Saiid in her mind to get a better idea of where things were. "You all sound so interesting!" Especially this Kurama fellow. "And Japan sounds like so much more fun than Saiid. I wish i could see it..." Her voice trailed off as Yusuke spoke.
He frowned. "You don't have to give her our whole life story Kurama." Yusuke huffed and looked at the girl. "And why the hell do you want to know so much anyway?"
She looked over at him and Kuwabara, who was still gaping at her. "It's not often that i get to meet new people that don't try to kill me. And it's even more rare that Saya let's me speak to them." She grinned and looked back to Kurama with a smile before so got back to preparing them all lunch.

"That's really hardly any of your business." Saya told him with narrowed eyes. She wasn't about to spill her guts out to this stranger, what was he thinking? So she turned her gaze forward to the road and said nothing more.

"Why is that so rare?" Kurama asked. It was obvious that Saya was possessive of this pretty girl, but he knew there had to be reasoning behind it.
