((Ah, shit, I'm sorry. With all of the other roleplays going, this one got overlooked. *Sheepish grin from Tashi* Just poke me if I get to ignoring you. Chances are I'm just being pushed aside by the bigger critters. ^_^))
"Special? Nothing. That's just the way it is here. Don't all places have demons?" Tashi glanced at the woman curiously, then shrugged, "I guess if one island is different from another, worlds can be different too. "Anyway, these demons are just irritating hellish freaks. All have their own special abilities and are frightening in their own way. Usually, if you don;t bother them, they don't bother you, but in the case of some, they find a place they like and they harass it. It is the job of noble demons such as myself, monks, and demon hunters to get rid of these troublesome demons." Tashi paused for a moment, ears pushing forward. "A demon is approaching us now. Weasel in nature. Level...4. Not bad."
((BTW- Tashi is one of my fanfic 'characters' from Inuyasha. She's sister to Inu and Sesshomaru. But since this isn't a fanfic rp, I'm keeping out the elements that would make it a fanfic. So, if you have seen or know something of the series, I am saying things that may sound familiar.))
Tashi-Hira drew her katana, and instantly it went from the small, thin blade to something large and formidable, nearly the size of Tashi herself. At first the blade was swirling red and white, then it turned a nasty shade of red entirely. "I will let you give it a go just so you know how to deal with them. I'll help if I see you need it. The way to take out a demon is to throw cunning and your force of will at it if you don't have a demon-killing weapon. Incapacitate them, and they'll leave. You aren't human, so you should have, well, something inside you that feels powerful. Animals have it, demons have it, monks have it. Mortals don't. Just summon up that something within you and push it at the demon. You don't necessarily need a weapon to deal with them. I don't, I just love trusty Saio here. She's my baby." Tashi ran her hand along the back of the blade, and it hummed in response. Suddenly, a giant weasel jumped out of the grass and onto the path in front of them, hissing, it's three red eyes glowing menacingly. When it opened it's mouth to roar, a purple ball of light was forming at the back of it's mouth. "It's gonna try to spit some nasty shit at us. Let's not find out what it'll do." Tashi suggested, pointing her giant katana at the demon threateningly.

A. . . force? The entrance of the demon cut off her chance to ask the question. Better to try now than later. Will though, was something she understood. She figured she would gather her strength like she used to always do. The stren tgth that made her feel invincible, that nothing ccould stop her. It had been a while since she tapped into that emotion. The domination. She gave her companion one, unsure look and then tried to force her will upon the three eyed demon, domination, to leave her territory.
((I am going to leave the controlling to you becuase I don't know if this is what you are looking for. It's at least close right.))

Tashi watched Lily with a hint of mild surprise on her face. The cat-woman couldn't see the force of will, but she could feel it. And so could the weasel. An invisible wall of power pushed away from Lily, racing towards the demon angrily. The purple ball the demon was preparing to launch instantly dissipated as the wall hit it, sending it flying backwards. Cuts appeared and began to gush with blood on the weasel's arms, legs, and belly. The creature stopped its hisses and whimpered instead, acknowledging the other's dominance. He scampered off into the brush again, not wanting another fight. "Huh. Well, who would have thought it. You've got an interesting will. Make a good level 6 or 7 demon, you would. Formidable. Most demons around here have a violent will. You have a good mass of power here." Tashi shook Saio, and it shrank back down to a simple katana again. She resheathed it, giving Lily another curious glance before continuing on to the town. "That was definitely interesting."

Lily watched the results of her invisible action. Her expression was also surprised. She watched the demon run off feeling vaguely pleased. This was the first time that she had seen an emotion take such a physical effect. "Wow." She brushed a piece of hair out of her eyes behind her ear, "Agreed, interesting. I guess I can be of some use to you? How exactly does one get a demon-slaying weapon anyways?" She asked, thinking there would be some way she could synthesize her own.

"You most certainly can be of use to me. You don't give off demonic energy, but you have the power of a medium level demon. "And to get a demon-slaying weapon, you have to talk to a demon weapon maker. You can't find them easily, though. And without being a demon, you might have a hard time reaching one. They tend to surround their homes and smiths in a dense demonic fog which poisons non-demonic creatures." Tashi continued towards the town in the distance, the darkness on the horizon beginning to turn light. "Demon weapons are made using demon parts by demon means. Or, we could talk to a monk. They have demon-slaying weapons that your non-demonic hands should be able to hold."

"Oh, I was just figuring that I could make these," She held up her hands with the deadly gauntlets, "Into something useful." She shrugged, letting her hands drop. It was too bad she couldn't arrive in a spot acurately yet or she might be able to circumvent the poison. "So what makes one a demon anyways?"

"You might still be able to make them into something useful. Like I said, we can talk to a monk. He might have some ideas." Tashi said, but at Lily's next question, Tashi looked stumped. "Well, uh, I dunno. I was born this way. So was my daddy. And his daddy before him." She glanced at Lily, "I don't know where we come from. I know one of the legends says that Hell put us here as his Hell-spawn to try and take over the world. There was a time demons were more powerful than the humans, but we are being pushed back by demon-slayers and Monks and other holy people." They entered town limits, and Tashi pushed her ears forward, listening to the hum of the people. Many glanced in their direction, more startled by lily's extreme height rather than Tashi-Hira's demonic presence. Everyone in this country was between 4 and 5 feet except for the rare ones and demon half-breeds. Tashi was taller than most, but she didn't come close to Lily's towering presence.

Lily glanced side to side then grimaced. She was too tall. At some time she would have to shrink herself, right now of course, was not a good time too. She was glancing curiously at everyone and everything just as people were glancing curiously at her. Tashi had given Lily more questions than answers. What was hell really? Why would she fight her own kind? Was there any relationship between what Tashi-Hira was and what she was? But she didn't like the idea of bombarding the noble demon with questions. Instead she looked at Tashi asking in the glance, 'what next?'

"We're gonna go to the head house here. The nobleman put out a message saying that he had a demon in his home that he needed exterminated. If no one else has responded, we'll exterminate it. I think it's still around, This place reeks of demon energy." She explained to Lily's glance. The nobleman's house was easy to pick out- it was huge and highly decorated with riches. Without hesitating a beat, Tashi-Hira marched right up and pulled the bell string. Within a few moments, a servant answered the door, his eyes widening as he saw the demon cat standing before him, then to the tall lady behind her. "We're here to deal with the demon problem." Tashi said coldly, and the servant ushered them into a sitting room. "The lord will be with you shortly." he said, skittering away. Tashi glanced around the room- it, too was over decorated. Buudhas, dragons, jewels and gold adorned everything. A young, beautiful woman caught her eye, then the woman disappeared quickly around a corner. "I think I identified our demon." Tashi whispered to Lily, "It's possessed the woman. All the energy seemed to circle her." The lord stepped out from the hall and into the sitting room. "I'm so glad someone finally came!" He said happily, "The demon has been terrorizing everyone within my household, and the stink at night gets unbearable. Is there anything you two can do?"

"Yes, I agree, I feel it." Lily whispered back. "Ironic isn't it? They aren't scared of you when they are using you." She said quitely. The only reason she didn't say it loud enough for the lord to hear was that she was unsure of his power and therefor the reciprocation. She was going to let Tashi do the business talk considering that Lily was new to this.
