Toshiko listened to Miryoku and nodded. "I know... I did the only thing I could to buy us some time... If I was stronger I would get us out of here now..." she breathed and then closed her eyes. She was so tired... In so much pain, but she took some happiness in seeing Miryoku's wounds slowly closing before her. "I will figure out something..." she breathed and looked down at the ring. "I don't think your collar is the only magical control device... I believe this ring might have some masked abilities..." she said softly and leaned forward and softly pressed a kiss to her lover's lips. Hearing footsteps coming, she pulled her face away and the door banged open. Kei smirked down at them and chuckled darkly. "Did you really think I wouldn't break you? You poorly mistaken women." he snickered.

Miryoku easily kissed her mistress back before slowly moving to sit up though stayed in Toshiko's arms. She then glared at Kei darkly and bared a few sharp teeth at him. Slowly her body was trying to take on her true form though that was the only part that you could really see from it other then her pulled back ears and puffed tail. She DID NOT like Kei at all and she didn't want him anywhere near her mistress.

Kei chuckled and then snapped his fingers. "Down kitty." he said and suddenly the collar glowed and she flew from Toshiko's grasp and onto the bed. "Kei-" Toshiko started but screamed in pain as the ring glowed a bright red. Her hands were bound behind her by a red magic band, and she was floated over to the bed. Sitting with her back to the post, her hands were forced to be bound around it, her body facing the rest of the bed. "I have to house break the cat first... And then my dearest, it will be your time after." he said with a grin and shut the door with a click of the lock. He walked over to the bed and then pinned Miryoku down. "If you scratch me kitten, I will make your life hell."

Miryoku screamed in pain as the collar shocked her and a force sent her flying into the bed where she laid shaking. She then snarled at Kei and tried to kick him off of her though she was still weak. "I'M NOT A CAT!" she snarled darkly as a growl rose in her throat. She never wanted Toshiko to see her like this but something about this male set her off... as if her body had been around him before and knew that he was a major threat and to hate him.... but she had only met him twice before hadn't she?

Toshiko slowly opened her eyes and regretted it as soon as she did. Her body was throbbing and shaking in pain as she awoke slowly, and found her lower half sticky from Kei. Tears running down her face, she saw Miryoku. "No..." she breathed, fumbling across the bed to her lover. She pulled her into her arms weakly and sobbed, her body feeling so unclean. Her mind still couldn't register that last night had truely happened, that he had truely taken advantage of her. "I-I failed... I-I'm s-so sorry." she sobbed, rocking back and forth. "I'm sorry I failed you." she kept whimpering over and over.

Miryoku whimpered as she felt movements then herself being moved and lifted a bit. She slowly opened her eyes and looked up at her mistress tears filling her eyes as she wrapped her arms around her. "It's not your fault... I just wish he hadn't have touched you m'lady...." she whimpered a bit though her body shook a little at the memory and she just hugged her mistress close. They both reaked of the male and that bothered her... but what were they to do about it? As she thought she noticed her mind was being a little odd and that her body was starting to ache in a way she knew ow too well. She reluctantly pulled away from her mistress and looked away as she started to speak her voice shaking a little. "Toshiko... please don't look at me..." she whimpered a bit as her skin color started to change a bit again and so did the texture of it. She didn't want this to happen.... she didn't want her mistress to see her true form... she didn't want her to see the odd beast she was.

(I'll describe the change in the next post but this is a slight thought of what she would look like in the full form... I'm still trying to make a better pic though)

Toshiko smiled weakly hearing Miryoku, and closed her eyes. "I... It's just..." she breathed and sighed heavily a tear falling down her cheek. "I promised to be your protector... I-I have always been able to beat Kei... Ever since we were children, I was better then him in everything... I refused to let him, a man, beat me..." she whispered and shuddered. "I failed... And I couldn't protect my most precious person i care about... You..." she said and gasped as Miryoku began to wriggle from her arms. Watching in shock as Miryoku tried to disappear under the sheets. "Miryoku, what's wrong?" she asked worried, reaching to pull the sheets back.

Miryoku shuddered as she felt the cover being pulled away but she didn't want her mistress to see her. She felt her medium sized light brown feathered wings pull out and her long blond tail. Her skin had changed to an orange-ish blond color though darker then her hair with blond stripes like a tiger. Her ears changed to that of almost a foxes ears since they were larger and pointier then a cats and a pair of black horns poked out of her head. Her eyes were almost an icy blue with a large slit in them instead of her deep aqua eyes. Her hands and feet were also different... bigger like paws with small claws on each finger and tow. "Don't look at me m'lady... I'm just a monster." she whimpered a bit her ears pulling back and her tail drooping.

Toshiko was shocked at what she saw as she pulled back the covers. The little girl infront of her had turned into a wonderfully different creature that she had never seen before. "Miryoku... You're not a monster." she whispered reaching forwards, running her weak and trembling hand down the middle of her love's back. "You're beautiful." she breathed and then smiled widely. "Miyoku-" she started but collapsed on her side, her body shaking. She weakly crawled to the side of the bed and vomited over the side. She shook and her hand weakly rested on her stomach. She could still feel that man's nasty leftovers inside her, and it made her sick. Her eyes went dull again, her mind succumbing to her pain.

Miryoku was a bit shocked and surprised when she heard her mistress and looked up at her with her big blue eyes. She then watched her move and puke off the side of the bed and whimpered some moving over to her and pulling the covers around them both and curling up to her hugging her mistress close. "I'll find a way out of here for both of us m'lady... I promise." she whispered quietly as she gently rubbed her lovers back with her soft paws.

Toshiko felt the soft furr of Miryoku's body as she came to her. Shuddering at the thought of being touched by Kei again made the eleven female want to vomit again. Curling into Miryoku's embrace, tears fell down the woman's cheeks. She clung to her lover's new body and then burried her face against her. Suddenly the door banged open and Kei walked in. "Wake up darling, you must get ready for a new day!" he called and narrowed his eyes seeing Toshiko in the arms of... The kitten. "Slave stand up and away from my fiancé." he commanded, and the collar glowed brightly, making Miryoku do as Kei said. "No..." Toshiko whimpered and curled into a ball, her body revealed. Walking up to her, Kei ran a hand down her, causing her to cry out and try to move away. Chuckling he grabbed her and pulled her up into his arms, Toshiko squirming and thrashing weakly against him. He then smirked and walked into the bathroom. "You must wash up darling, you're still dirty from our fun." he said and she shuddered pulling away. "I can do it myself." she whispered and he set her down. "Good, I have a few things to tend to, I need you out and dressed in an hour." he said and walked out. "Get out the mistress's dress and shoes from the closet and set them out." he ordered and left the room.

Miryoku cried out in pain as her collar shocked her and sent her flying onto the floor where she trembled for a few minutes before slowly moving to get up forcing her body to do so even though she was in too much pain to. She stumbled over to the bathroom knowing that Kei wouldn't hear them since he left the room. she stumbled over to the bath and looked at her mistress. "A-are you okay Toshiko? Do you want help?" she asked softly and lovingly to her mistress wanting to help her in any way. She then looked back at the bathroom door and noticed that there was a lock that could be locked... and then one actually built into the door with no key hole. "I have an idea." she said softly as she went and grabbed a dress from the closet then went back into the bathroom and locked both of the locks hoping that could hold off Kei if he came back early. "At least this could give us some time away from him." she said softly as she looked at her mistress hoping she was okay

Toshiko was surprised as she heard Miryoku. "Moryoku..." she breathed and smiled weakly. "I'm alright... Bathe with me." she whispered and looked at the water that she had started. Pulling Miryoku into her arms, she felt a tear leave her cheek and hit her lover's cheek. "This shouldn't have happened..." she said and weakly stood, moving to get into the water, the bruises upon her body from Kei holding her were very apparent on her white skin. Without her energy or magic being strong she wouldn't heal well until she grew strong once more. "Can you help me Miryoku?" she asked, turning her redened eyes to her dearest lover.

"Of course m'lady." Miryoku said softly as she got into the bath with her mistress and started to help her clean up. "In all honesty... last night... I think something... clicked... when he hurt us both... when he hurt you... something in my mind snapped... that's when my form started to change... I think my apprentice is on her way here... it was a spell I cast on myself that if I ever got into serious trouble that she could find me... the seal would break on the spell and a signal would be sent out to her telling her where I was. Once she's here she'll know not to let herself be seen... she'll sneak in... if we can just stay in here for awhile I'm sure she'll show up and help us." Miryoku said softly as her tail swayed a little at the thought of her apprentice showing up to help them.

(oh yeah in a few posts I'm going to have her apprentice show up X3 if you couldn't have already been able to tell.)

Toshiko listened to Miryoku and nodded. "Hopefully she will be able to help us... If only I was able to have my energy back... I could release the magic collar and ring from us." she said as she got help cleaning herself. Once done, the elven female got up and dried herself as much as she could. Looking to the red dress Moryoku grabbed, she sighed and put it on. The tight revealing dress definatelt accentuated her flat stomach and large chest. Looking at herself in the mirror she then looked away. She felt so unclean and defiled that she was sick. Not even confident with herself like she always had been, she looked away, unsure of what to do.

Miryoku sighed as she cleaned herself next and slowly got out of the bath after her mistress and dried off her fur puffing a bit though she just wrapped the towel around her and walked over to her mistress. "Though I think your normal attire is much more suited to you... you are still beautiful... nothing will ever change that... and you shouldn't think that just because of what that stupid man did to you." she said softly as she wrapped her arms around her mistress though then paused as she heard something and turned around looking a little surprised at what she saw next.

"MIRYOKY!" A young looking girl squeeled that seemed to appear out of nowhere and tackled Miryoku. "I've been waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting to hear from you! Why are you in this dump?" the girl said her pure whitened silver tail swishing back and forth quickly.

"SH SH SH!" Miryoku hissed at the girl and her ears sank. "Well at least you're here... Etta I need my neckless did you bring it?" she asked the girl and she thought some before nodding and taking off a crystal on a silver chain and handing it to her. "Good girl... Mistress I would like you to meet Etta... and also... do you know a spell that can break these things? If so put this on and you'll get all your strength back and we can get outta here..." Miryoku said softly looking up at her mistress and held out the pendent for her to take. She wanted to get out of there as fast as they could and that infinite supply of magic the rare crystal held was the only thing they had right now.

(lol XD yay long post, and this is Etta)

Toshiko smiled softly, feeling Miryoku hug her. Moving away as she sensed magic, she watched as another being such as Miryoku appear. Leaning against the counter of the sink, she watched as her servant was pounced on. The way the girl was so loud shocked the mistress and her eyes were glued to the door. She didn't want to see Kei burge in and ruin their chances of being free. Watching Miryoku as she took up a jewle on a silver chain, the mistress smiled and took it in her hands. Just feeling the power and strength from it, she could cast one spell right away. Letting the spell go, she watched as the collar fell off of Miryoku. Smiling she gasped as the door disappeared suddenly and Kei stood there. Shocked, Toshiko acted swiftly, using the c
Crystal to send Miryoku and Etta to her home estate and sent the crystal with them. Kei growled angerily and grabbed her by the throat. "You bitch!" he snarled.

((I just wanted to make it a bit harder then that. Oh and here's the dress she's wearing
))

(nice XD and did you say it was a red version of that dress?)

Miryoku gasped as she felt the magic ingulf her and Etta. "No... Toshiko..." Miryoku whimpered as they appeared in hers and Toshiko's room. "We have to help her... before it's too late. But... first I think I should go to the spring real quick... it will heal me and restore my powers... please, you stay in the house and whatever you do, if you see Kei, DO NOT TALK TO HIM! Don't tell him where I went and cast a portal spell as soon as you can and send him through it." Miryoku ordered Etta and she nodded putting the necklace back on as she watched Miryoku leave. Before long she was back though in deep thought as she tried to come up with a way they could get back and free her mistress.

Toshiko found the next half hour the worst time in her life. She relived the precious night twice over, and received whips to the back like Miryoku had. Laying on the floor in utter pain, Kei picked her up and grinned. "That little ring is a keeper... I forged it myself... And the magic will make your mind mine soon... The longer you wear it, the sooner it works." he said and threw her against the wall. Coughing painfully, she looked up slowly at Kei. "To think, we used to be hunting partners... What twisted you so?" she hissed and he chuckled. "I always wanted the best... And to get you, one can't play by the rules." he said and then kissed her harshly, and moved to nip at her. Slapping his cheek, she dug her nails into him and then screamed as he bit her again. She had several bite marks now. "Stop it!" she screamed painfully, tears running down her face.

((yes it is.))

Once Miryoku had gotten ready and fully healed she went back to hers and Toshiko's room and got the necklace from Etta. She casted a spell and appeared back in the bathroom being as quiet as possible. She waited till Kei had his back turned to her and quickly cast a spell on the ring. It took allot of energy but with the help of the dimand around her neck she was able to shut off it's effects without making that apparent or sending off any signal to Kei... only her and Toshiko would know it wasn't working for her powers would return. She then saw that the collar hadn't been moved and quickly rerouted the energy to is so she could use it and made it appear on Kei's neck and shock him instead. She just hoped it would drain him quick enough so he wouldn't be able to break it.

Toshiko struggled weakly against Kei as he bit her, and barely felt the affects of the ring stop. Being in so much pain, the elf couldn't comprehend much. Kei gasped as the collar suddenly appeared around his neck, and he let out a roar. Curling up into a ball, Toshiko watched in horror as the man thrashed and fought against the collar. Seeing it suddenly explode, he reached for her and suddenly a great light flashed from her body. Kei had been thrown across the room and was covered in cuts and burns, while Toshiko laid unconscious on the ground were she had originally been. She didn't show much signs of life, but her chest was barely rising and falling with breath.

Miryoku stood and quickly cast a strong berrier spell while Kei was down making sure he stayed there as she ran over to Toshiko with Etta on her tail. She quickly wrapped her arms gently around her mistress and vanished with her back to their home. "Mistress... Toshiko... Toshiko... please, please wake up." Miryoku whimpered as she healed her mistress and held her gently but close. "Etta go and get one of the robes out of the closet and leave the room please." she ordered softly as her assistant did what she asked then left. She carefully pulled Toshiko's clothes off and replaced them with her soft robe that she liked to sleep in sometimes. She then held her close and hoped that her healing powers had worked as soft tears fell from her eyes.

Toshiko felt something upon her face as she weakly opened her eyes. Then she realized they were her dearest one's tears. "Don't cry Miryoku... All I need is rest... Time and rest..." she breathed softly, her voice like a faint breeze. It was nothing like her usual voice that carried with power. Blinking her deep green eyes at her lover, she smiled and then coughed, blood trickling down from her mouth. "He caused internal damage as well Moryoku... " she whispered and closed her eyes in pain. "Sleep with me once more... Let me hold you close in our bed..." she breathed pleadingly, a tear slipping down her cheek. "I thought I had lost you forever..."

Miryoku looked down at Toshiko and saw the blood then immediately started to work her healing magic and healed the internal bleeding as best she could though knew that is would still need to heal a bit more on it's own with rest. She then carefully moved to lay down Toshiko her form normal once more as she pulled the covers around them both both already in night wear so she didn't need to change either of them. "I was worried as well... when you teleported me without you... I thought I wouldn't see you again... but once I got home I was able to think fast enough... I'm sorry I didn't get back there sooner... but he'll never hurt you ever again... so long as I have this jewel I'll make sure he never gets close to you." she said softly as she kissed her mistress softly and lovingly on the lips.

Toshiko smiled softly and cuddled closet Miryoku, who was back in her humanoid form. "I love you Miryoku." she breathed and then she was out cold. Her body needed to reboot, and her mind was still realing. She hadn't told Miryoku about Kei raping her twice in that half hour, and she had nearly lost herself. In her mind, it was a whirling messed up mess. The elf could subconsciously feel the nasty stuff leaking from her body, and it was literally making her sick. If Miryoku hadn't been there so she could cling to her, Toshiko would have never come out of her mental and physical abuse.
