Arkain nods to the kitsune. "Alright alright. Your right. We need to get those shards out of Reiku while you still can. I will kill it later. "He starts to see a form start to take shape thats in the portal. "Thats the demon. This is not good or is it?" You said it possessed Reiku and was there last time we talk to her? Are you sure it wants to waste time or protect her." Before Arkain can react. He watches the kitsune send a beam of light at the creature. He knows the kitsune is trying to stop the demon. But everything tells him that the demon is not trying to harm Reiku instead its protecting her and attacking it is wasting him magical energy. He nods and ee does what the kitsune says and heads over to Reiku. He drops down beside her and carrasses her face. "You didn't think I was going to let some latex creatures keep us from our date now did you?" He smerks and hugs you warmly.. " Now Lets gets you away from the light show."He picks you up in his arms and hugs you close to him and kisses your neck. He starts to stand up then he stops. He freezes in fear watching the demon form. He trembles nervously watching it approach them. He nods when he says take her to safety. He stands up holding Reiku in his arms. He starts to back away from the demon and head to the door. Then he stops when he hears what the demon said about getting  the kitsune to submit. THe demon has it all wrong. "Reiku, the demon has it wrong. The kitsune is the reason I am here now. He is here to save your life. He didn't do any of those things to you. If he fights the demon, he will looose the last of his magical energy and then will never be able to get the shards out of you. I have to stop this.  I will not leave you again, Reiku. " He puts you down on the floor leaning you against a wall.<br/>He watches the demon take a very defensive stance. He is surprised when the demon actually askes for help instead of forcing him to submit  but his terms were threatening and he doesn't want the kitsune to look at it as a challenge.  He steps forward and looks at the demon definatly almost standing in front of the kitsune.<br/>"NO! I WILL NOT!! THe kitsune is not the one who violated her body. If you want to punish someone punish the spider there. The kitsune is the reason I am here now. He has been helping me get to her. Without his help, I never would have even gotten out of that exam room less find my way to Reiku. Listen. He HAS already agreed to remove the shards from her body. THere is no need to try to force him to do it. Besides the more energy he uses, the harder it will be for him to remove them. If you two want to have a fight to the death, fine. Do it after he removes the shards. OK? Right now we are waisting time. If you want the kitsunes help, he has to do it NOW... while he still can." He stands there defiantly. He knows you could strike him down with one blow but he also can the demon is protecting Reiku. He hopes if the demon searches his feelings, he will see he speaks the truth about the kitsune.
