Why had she been given the baby demon watch duty? She should be out in battle or something equally meaningful. Oh, yes, there was that incident with what's-his-name, the acting supervisor. It was his own fault that she had sliced his tail and nearly severed it with her claws. He should have kept his slimy paws to himself.<br/><br/>Sitting on the side of river, perched up in a tree, Tani watched the poor fledgling demon as she tried to rise and then fell back down to a lump. Such a pity. This would be so much easier if she were standing on her own at the first waking. Now, Tani would have to wait for her to regain consciousness again. She hated waiting. With a quick flick of her forked tongue, she caught a fly that was near to her. Why it was anywhere near the wretched water was a mystery. Life simply did not venture this way.<br/><br/>"Come on, little one," Tani said out loud then she sat back and swung her legs around, examining her light green skin for any signs of dirt. Her tail flicked behind her, briefly touching the base of her long flaming red hair. "Might as well do my claws," she sighed then she drew her small knife from the waistband of her one piece garment and began to sharpen her claws.
