I nearly made a running leap for Shane’s bed. I was so tired for all the fighting all I wanted to do was go to sleep. The pillow was nice and soft, and my muscles instantly relaxed. Maki laughed, and I cocked my head up to look at her.
“You looked like a cat,” she laughed.
“Naw,” I smirked, “You have jussst never ssseen me when I am thissss tired.”
“Are you really that tired?” Maki asked, “Hachi? Hachi?”
Too bad for Maki but I was already asleep. My dreams were scattered and utterly random thoughts moving through my consciousness. Sooner or later they formed into a labyrinth of sorts. I continued my tour not minding making a wrong move and having to retrace myself, but as my head turned to look over a corner, I suddenly wished I hadn’t….but I had…..I had seen him…..
I took a deep breath walked fully out of the maze to face him. He was chained to the walls of my consciousness, but he fought them and bared fangs. It was Dark. His features had sharpened and his skin was far paler. I stared at him a tad frightened for a second. There was no way for him to escape, but some part of me begged for me to turn and run.
“Hachimata,” Dark hissed his eyes glaring at me.
“Dark,” I said flatly.
“You’re afraid…..” Dark smirked, “Of me? Or of you?”
“Neither,” I answered.
“Isssss that sssssso,” Dark hissed, “Then why come here? To thisssss desssolate hell you forced me into……”
“I don’t know why I am here, but I am,” I answered.
“You lie…..we both know it sssso ssstop lying you weakling….” Dark hissed. He struggled for a moment and the rattling of the chains seemed to make my heartbeat come alive.
“Fine,” I answered, “I wanted to know……why you deceived me.”
“That’ssss eassssy,” Dark laughed, “You were weak…..”
“No,” I answered, “I want to know why you sssaid that I was not going to die but sssleep even to the lassst of my pleassss…..You could have laughed…..you could have told me outright that I would die….but you didn’t……”
“Hachimata…..contrary to what you may thing for I know what you think and you do not know what I think, I did not believe you were going to die,” Dark said coldly.
“W-what do you mean….” I said having to stop myself before I got in too deep with my own emotion of shock.
“It wassss my thought…..that you would become a part of me…sssleep for a bit….and dream and underssstad…..realize your wrong and together we become a whole…..when I thought you died….I had to control the immense amount of stimuli that I received….it causssed me pain….and the control wasss too much…..I became the weak one….” Dark answered.
“But I remember in your mind that you stopped to see if I wassss dead,” I answered.
“Indeed you were protesssting far too much and the darkness wasss eating away at you….I could not sstop the jutsu until you had either given up or died….I wasss ssso ssure you would give up but when you didn’t…..” a look appeared across Dark’s face that I wished I hadn’t seen. It was a look one would give to someone he cared about.
Anger flooded me, and I punched him. Dark did not struggle or try to move as I punched him again. Blood ran from the side of his mouth but he smirked. The sounds of the chains rattling mixed with the sounds of my fist hitting his cheek.
“Basssssstard!” I hissed, “How dare you give me that look…..”
I punched him twelve more times before I stopped. More blood was running on him, but he looked up and smiled.
“We are the ssame perssson Hachimata……it isss not wrong to love yourssself…..” he smirked.
I punched him again, and this time he let out a cry. It was a cry of pain, and it seemed to drill into me. I wanted to hit him and at the same time…..something stopped me.
“Heh Hachimata…..isssss that all you have?” he asked, “You are a weak one…..how did I lose to someone ssso weak?”
“Like you said before,” I said, “We are the ssame person….but I am the ssstronger.”
“You have your anssswerssss,” Dark hissed, “Issss that all you were here for? Or were you planning to beat me up more?”
“I hate you,” I hissed.
“Well then…..hate me all you want…..” Dark smirked.
I suddenly felt something pulling me away from the dream. Everything melted away until all that was left was the light trying to penetrate my eyelids.
“Did you have a good nap?” Maki asked. She was looking out Shane’s open window.
“Sssure….” I said unsure of myself, “I don’t need to sssleep anymore.”
I sat up and looked around. We were still in Shane’s room, but time had passed. I sighed and got off the bed. My shoulder’s ached for some reason or another. I stretched and found that only part of my energy had returned. It would have to do.
The large amount of biju presence was so immense I wondered why the Akatski hadn’t banged on the door yet. I laughed and walked to the main room.

Nekomata's Dairy, Read At Your Own Risk
Weeks past since the first day I decided to live with Houkou and Hikari. I sighed. Knowing this couldn't last forever...
Francis now stops frequently too, only to check on things. But he gives me a weird feeling when he gets close to Hikari and stares at her for a long time. Sometimes I see his eyes change color, and his fangs grow.
That's when I worry the most.
Even so, I trust Francis. Heir to the family. Strongest. Well raised. Understanding. My only brother now....
Mother is doing better than she did when she found out about this. She doesn't want me to be the girl who goes off and gets pregnant and marries to some stranger. Francis was able to make her understand though. Strange spider thingy he does.
Father left though...Only Francis can tell when he's decides to come back...
Mother had a hard time with that too. Sometimes I wonder if I should stay with her and never leave.
But I remember that even though she loves me, and never wants me to go...I was the one who ruined her life by being born...If I wasn't born, she'd have two strong, helping sons. And Father would always be with her, never letting her down......
Nonetheless, every time I look into Houkou's eyes, I know I made the right choice....
*real life, going on now*
Suddenly, I jumped out of the chair I was writing in and rushed to the bathroom. And I started to puke into the toilet.
"Crap..." I gasped when I was done.
My hand slowly slid from my mouth, to my chest, to my stomach, until I realized what had happened....
"How the hell will I tell Houkou?" I whispered, as if hoping I could take back all the events that happened last night.....
So what was the answer to my question?
"If I ever hurt or killed someone in anyway by my demon I would never forgive myself", she said. " What is that word again?.....Well Suicide and that gun will end my life and my demons".
I think Kokoro was seeing my shocked face after this, but whta was she thinking about?! answering like that and with a smile on her face....
Why would you ever do suicide thats the worst reason!? I was now yelling at her, but then looked at her face and saw a confused one.
"It wouldn't really mattered if I died anyway no one would care".
That was the point, why did she say that kind of things, I was hitting one of my walls; she loooked more confused but after taking a long sigh I calmed myself and looked at her with seroius-sad eyes
-Please Koko-chan, dont talk about life like that and least if it is your life...
-But what can I do if it is the truth? No one will care if I die...
-You are lying...
- o__o?
-Yes, you are lying!!!! *thunder* I know that all the members that know you would care because you've become one of our friends... She wanted to say something but I continued talking.
You now most of the times we are hated, few humans know us and accept us, so at that times this club and all the members are the way of keeping us alive because they've became our friends and lovers in other cases... besides...If something happened, don't worry about it, we all forget each other and continue living, you had seen this many times..right?
-I couldnt forget myself.... She said
-Koko-chan, I know what it feels like to not being able to control yourself and end doing stupid things, but you have to keep living for yourself and those who care about you, it doesnt matter if they are dead, well at least that is what I've learned....
Wow i've never say that kind of things...I thought to myself, at least I was wishing it worked, it seemed it did because I looked at Kokoro and she was looking at the floor
-amm...
-dont worry Raijuu-san, Im ok..just need sometime to think
-Ok, I'll leave you here because I need to buy some supplies...and with that, I left...
------//--------------
Two heads think better that one...
me: do you think we did it right?
Raijuu: amm I don really knwo o___o, we heve to see the results...

Yurikami slammed into the wall and collasped. "Yuri-chan!" I yelled and ran to her. I knelt down and held her head up. "Yurikami! Are you okay?! Answer me! Hey! Wake up! You've gotta be kidding me!!" I yelled to her while shaking her like crazy. Then I heard her breathing and felt her heart beating. I sighed. She was mearly sleeping. Thank goodness..., I thought in releif. I got her on my back and started to walk home.
While walking, I started to think about what aunty Yuriko told us. She told us the whole story. How Yurikami met new friends, found love, and lost her memories dew to a special jutsu. Aunty really wasn't there when it happened but she knew what went on. Aunty knows everything to know about that special jutsu that brings back the life of a friend but takes the life of your own. Yurikami probably wanted to save her friend knowing that she take her place in death, but somehow... somehow someone saved her with the reversing jutsu. I believe "Hachi" was the name of the guy. Yurikami told her mother that she met a guy name Hachi so he must of done it. But however, even so he saved her then... it's gonna be a hard time saving her now. It would be dangerous if she remembered anything from her past, judging what happened just now.
Yurikami was starting to wake up. "...ah... w- wha? What happened... w-whe... where am I?" she asked in a drozzy tone. "Well hey there sleeping beauty. Had a nice nap on my back?" I said to her calmly whiling smiling. "Oh kyo... what happened? Why am I on your back? I'm sorry if I gave you any trouble..." she apologized.
"It's no biggy. You just collasped. I wonder why... Is it something you ate?" I asked. Then I felt a slight fibration on my back and heard a rumbling after it.
"Or did you eat at all?" I joked after realizing that was Yuri's Stomach. She simply blushed out of embaressment. I giggled and she giggled. It then became a huge laughter. "Well it's true that I did miss dinner." she laughed.
"Well lets see if there's any fast food stores open" I told her. We then searched for any fast food resterants. We found one called "Zenny's" and ate their. After we left, she told me she was okay now and asked to walk. I had to make sure she was okay so I asked her are you sure and she said yes. We walked home, hand in hand. I practaly blushed the whole walk. Holding Yuri's hand gave me a warm, comfty feeling inside. I always felt that way around her, even as kids. I always loved her... and I always will. I'll protect her, comfort her, and listen to her when needed. I didn't care if we were realated. Because techically, we wasn't realated in blood since I was a foster child. Once we have gotten home, I gave her some tea and led her to her room. I stayed there in her room until she fell asleep. She's not going to school tomorrow... instead she staying with me...
It has been brought to my attention by one of the members through PM about some information that has been a hoax about some biju.
Truthfully, it's a possibility Nekomata isn't really a black cat, but another color, Houkou does not have five tails but have no tails and he is not white but black, Raijuu has a possibility of having 2-3 tails instead of six, and Sokou doesn't even exist, not even his kanji.
Here's more of the links to info sites and a forum thread:

However, this club was created for fun, so even though there are myths about the legendary nine, don't let it bug you. Your characters will still be who they are and their demon forms will remain as they are, this is just informing you about the hoaxes.
That is all though, let's continue on with regular business all right?
