well, I'm working on the other pic I was planning on doing, which is Akumu without his mask, properly get it done sometime tonight or a least tomorrow. I'm feeling kinda sick so I'm just home drawing, anything ya want to talk about or anything else about Akumu you'd like to know?  

Hmm...well, I'm pretty sure you've already told me all about Akumu...is there anything you'd like to know about Akako?

hmmmmm nah, I don't think so. was just curious if you needed to you anything in particular if you write another one shot. 

well, I could write another oneshot if you'd like me to. I'm bored so I want something to do =P is there anything specific you can think of?

wow! it is so freakin' late! i'll be loggin' out now, so i'll talk to ya later, and i'm losing my patience for this damn comment box.  

lol, I'm from vegas so 2 in the morning (over here it is) feels like nothing! hahaha, ok, night!

lol, yeah usually I'm a real night-owl, but I'm a lot more tired on fridays for some reason, it was about 3:30 am, and I wasn't watching the clock, lol. i woke up at around 1:00 pm, I actullay slept through a crazy storm my dad told me about, lol. but i love to sleep in. dude! your from vagas! awesome! I went there on vacation once, I was kinda young but I still had a blast, one of my favorite vactions. I might be going there this summer actually, not sure yet, but always wanted to go back.  

hell yeah Vegas is the bomb! I lived there for 8 years =D I pretty much grew up there. I live in Kansas now though >_> I think it's boring as hell here. Ooooh I have another oneshot with Tatsuo and Akako! =D

lol, yeah I live in PA or as I like to call the "Where no shoot Happens State", lol but I never moved, lived there my whole life, doesn't it snow a lot or is it just really cold alot often in Kansas? 

eh, it depends. Kansas is the state of random weather. It can be pouring rain and suddenly be bright and sunny outside >_O

ok, I really want you to read the oneshot, so here it is. Warning: You will SERIOUSLY hate Tatsuo even more after you read this.

----------

Akako glanced down at the glowing cuffs on her wrists. She slowly looked over at Tatsuo with an emotionless expression on her face. Tatsuo smirked at her while stepping forward slowly.

“I know you’re quite familiar with these,” said Tatsuo, gesturing to the cuffs on Akako. Akako nodded curtly while glowering at her ex-lover, “Good, then I won’t have to explain anything to you.”

Tatsuo stepped up in front of Akako, the cloak that was draped over his body swaying slightly around his ankles. Tatsuo stood about 5 inches taller than Akako, but with her anger, she looked almost at equal height. Tatsuo looked into her crimson eyes, his dark eyes glinting dully.

“It’s strange…my dear raging angel,” said Tatsuo suddenly. Akako wanted to spit in his face for using that old nickname with her, “Being with you now has brought back such fond memories.” His cold smirk tugged at the corners of his lips. Akako stepped back slightly and turned her back to him, hunching her shoulders defensively.

“Come now Akako…you can’t tell me you don’t think of those memories as well,” hissed Tatsuo in her ear suddenly. She felt him snake an arm around her waist, bringing her body closer to his so her back was pressed against his chest. She growled dangerously from her throat, but she couldn’t do anything with the chakra cuffs blocking out of her chii.

Tatsuo chuckled in her ear while his other arm came around her shoulders. He slid his hand across her collar bone and grabbed her chin. He forced her head roughly to turn to look at him over her shoulder. Akako tried to pull away but suddenly his lips were smashed against hers in a rough kiss. Akako’s eyes were shut tightly in disgust as she still tried to pull away. Tatsuo kept his hand on her chin still while his arm kept squeezing her waist tighter.

The moment she felt his hand quickly try to go to her skirt, her eyes shot open and she suddenly bit his bottom lip hard. He shouted in pain and pulled back, holding his bleeding lip while glaring at the demon. Akako quickly stepped away from him, returning his heated glare as she spat out some of his blood onto the floor.

“You pathetic little whore! I should kill you where you stand!” he hissed dangerously, pulling his hand down to show her fang marks on his bottom lip. For the first time since she was kidnapped, Akako’s signature smirk was on her face.

“Kill me, and then there will be nothing stopping Akumu from destroying you,” said Akako mockingly. Tatsuo’s eyes widened for a moment before glaring again. She was right…she was pretty much his shield from Akumu’s wrath against him. No matter…he couldn’t kill Akako…but he could still make her suffer. After knowing Akako for over 1,000 years, he’s grown to know her weakest spot, and that’s her heart. But, he wouldn’t attack it physically. He would attack it emotionally.

“Tell me Akako, what makes you think this lover of yours will even come to your rescue?” hissed Tatsuo, a smug smirk on his face. Akako’s smirk slowly disappeared as her glare darkened at Tatsuo.

“I know Akumu…he is trying to find me,” said Akako dangerously, her fists clenched tightly. Tatsuo’s smirk widened; his plan was working.

“What makes you so sure he even cares what has happened to you? The fact that he told you he loved you? Tst…what have I told you before Akako? Who could ever love a monster as destructive as you?” Tatsuo said, standing up straight while wiping the remaining blood off of his lower lip. Akako snarled dangerously at him while stepping forward slightly. He was lucky she was in the chakra cuffs right now. Since she couldn’t hurt him, he decided to continue on with his taunting.

“He only told you he loved you so you would keep giving him what he wants. If you were not the first female demon he ever had contact with, he would have wanted nothing to do with you. Since you were pretty much the only one he could find, he might as well settle with you-“

“Do not speak of him in such a way! He cares about me!” screeched Akako, her huge dragon wings suddenly out and open wide. Tatsuo knew that meant she was enraged and she no longer wanted to hear what he had to say. That wasn’t going to stop him.

“You’re in such denial…pathetic demon. You would believe any man that told you he loved you.”

“That’s not true,” growled Akako, her crimson eyes flashing dangerously.

“You believed me when I told you the same thing.”

“Akumu isn’t like that! He is NOTHING like you!” she said, suddenly shocked to find her own voice cracking slightly. Tatsuo’s smirked maniacally before saying,

“If he really loved you, wouldn’t he be here saving you right now?! He isn’t coming for you; he has forgotten all about you! He doesn’t love you, he only lusted for you! No one will ever love you, Akako!”

Akako suddenly lunged at him, swiping her unusually sharp nails at his skin. He managed to barely dodge them before he reached out and grabbed the chakra cuffs around her wrists. The moment he made contact with them, electricity seemed to come out of them, sending shock waves throughout Akako’s body. Akako screamed in pain as she tried to pull away from him.

He slowly let go of the cuffs. Akako was kneeling on the ground now, her head bowed as some smoke came off of her body. Tatsuo chuckled and suddenly flicked his fingers. In between them was a large flame. It flickered and danced next to his skin, but it didn’t burn him.

“Thanks for the chii,” he said sarcastically and suddenly he punched her across the face with a closed fist. She went sliding across the floor, her long black, red-streak hair shielding her face. She would occasionally tremble, but other than that she laid perfectly still. She was out cold from the electric shock.

“I will be back, I have some business to take care of,” said Tatsuo, smirking down at the unconscious Akako lying a few feet away from him. In a flash, he disappeared.

wow, another great one shot, you're an awesome writer, seriously. but urgh, Melina what the hell! lol, Tatsou is such a mother F#@$'n DICK!

lol, that's just how I want Tatsuo to be. He's the kind of character you can't help but just DESPISE. He makes everyone hate him, and he knows that. He loves to manipulate Akako; mess with her mind so she becomes utterly confused. He's trying to turn her against Akumu

hey you draw great id like 2 do an art trade if your uo 2 it.^-^

sure, I'd love to =) what would you like me to do for your pic?

I don't know if you saw it, but the colored version of your pic is up. :D

phew got done my little photoshop project, just have to work on Akumu unmasked pic, i'll properly wait till tomorrow to do that, ok I can talk now but it's pretty late, lol. 

would you like to read it? It has Tatsuo and Akako in it D= it gets bad

lol, hell yeah i want to read it!

ok, just to kind of explained what happened. She was going to be killed by the priests because they were going to take all of the chii out of her body. She needs all of it in order to live. But, lone and behold, Tatsuo came and saved her. This is their conversation after that:

"Heh...wow Akako, age has done well to your body," said Tatsuo, a smug smirk on his face, looking at Akako's backside. Akako turned to him quickly, her crimson eyes ablaze with hatred and anger.

"Do NOT speak to ME in such a way, you snake!" she hissed through her fangs, flames coming out of her clenched fists. Tatsuo remained calm, his dark hair draping over his face perfectly. That same old smirk was still on his face, as his dark eyes locked with her crimson eyes. She could sense he was not intimidated by her anger and fire, but she wasn't going to let that stop her from releasing her utter rage at him.

He suddenly stepped forward a little, making Akako take a step back. She was still too weak from nearly being killed; she didn't have her full chii to fight him. He kept stepping forward and Akako kept stepping back. Before she knew it, her back was pinned against the wall. Tatsuo was still looking directly into her eyes while she got into a defensive stance with her back still against the wall.

"So...who is this new lover of yours?" Tatsuo asked darkly, still stepping forward. Akako's eyes widened. How the hell did he knew she had a new lover?! Akako's glare darkened as a strange flash went over those blood red orbs.

"He is none of your concern," Akako replied dangerously. Tatsuo stopped stepping forward for now he was only a foot away from her. A soft chuckle escaped from Tatsuo's throat, making Akako look at him curiously. "What's so funny?" she asked, slowly standing up straight again.

"You are...my raging angel..." whispered Tatsuo. He slowly lifted a hand and brushed it against Akako's cheek. She instantly slapped it away and opened her mouth to speak when suddenly a streak of pain went through her back. Her eyes were closed in pain as she let out a soft hiss through her teeth. She slowly opened her eyes again to find Tatsuo's face only inches away from her own.

Tatsuo pinned her arms above her head while pushing his legs against hers to keep her from moving. Akako stared into his eyes with her teeth visibly clenched.

"Get...off...of...me," Akako growled through her teeth, her anger quickly rising. Tatsuo just stared into her eyes, almost as if they were searching for something. Akako struggled to break free, but he just gripped her tighter. She was just too weak right now; she finally settled down and just glared at him.

"Who is he?" Tatsuo asked again, his voice dripping with danger. Akako just glared at him before finally whispering,

"Akumu..."

"So...the last Fire Demon?" said Tatsuo, more to himself then to Akako.

"I should just let him destroy you for doing this to me...." said Akako. Tatsuo chuckled darkly before squeezing her wrists painfully. She winced slightly before looking directly back into Tatsuo's dark eyes.

"That so called lover of yours wouldn't do shoot to me," hissed Tatsuo, looking almost maniacal. Akako's glare darkened even more.

"He is far more powerful then you...he could kill you easily," said Akako, digging her nails into her own palms.

"I don't think so..." said Tatsuo, a twisted smirk appearing on his handsome face. Akako gave him a curious look. He chuckled before leaning in so his breath tickled her neck and ear, "Your life is in my hands now. It would be quite a shame to have Akumu watch you die slowly and painfully before his very eyes..."

Akako's eyes widened in shock at this; her jaw dropping open slightly. Black mail...in order to keep her power and to keep Akumu away...he would black mail him with her life.

"You don't even know how to kill me..." hissed Akako in Tatsuo's ear, trying her best to stop him before he pulled a stunt like that. Tatsuo chuckled once again before replying,

"I have the Book of Demons. I know how to destroy you both...if you do not want to cooperate with me, I could just as easily kill him in front of you."

Akako's heart dropped immediately, her eyes still wide. She slowly closed her eyes and bowed her head slightly. Tatsuo could see she had given up.

"Excellent...I see we have come to an agreement," said Tatsuo, suddenly releasing Akako and stepping back. Akako's head was still bowed while her arms went limp to her sides. She slowly lifted her head up and looked at him with dull eyes.

"If I do what you say...you must promise to never lay a hand on Akumu. If you do..." suddenly, Akako's eyes are a brilliant crimson color. Her hair whipped around as flames came out from her fists, "I will be sure to make you suffer in the spirit world after I destroy you in this world."

A smirk was Tatsuo's only reply.

hmmm. wounder why Akumu didn't notice Akako being taken by the priests? properly seeing that whole sceane of what they were doing to Akako would have made him go Berserk. hmm interesting with Tatsou thrown into the mix now, Dokuga would properly interfear, he's bent on killing Akumu, and is the one who kills him in the original story.   

Akumu wasn't around when she was taken away. She was grateful he wasn't either because he probably would have gone Berserk. Tatsuo won't kill Akumu; he just wants to keep Akako for her power. Quite frankly though, how long will Akako be missing before Akumu tries to search for her? =0

well, because Akumu meditates often, he sense when something is off balance and has a strong extinct, that's one reasons why he's the last. also with people he's close to, like Hibashiro, he can sense when they are in danger and will come running.  

well then, Tatsuo better think of something quickly XD he keeps Akako locked in these special chakra cuffs. The block out her chii so she can't use any fire at all. He also forces her to fuse her chii in him to he can have the temporary ability to manipulate fire. Every time he forces her to do it though, she loses a lot of life energy and usually becomes very weak afterwards, sometimes to the point where she can't stand up

yeah, as much as Akumu hates becoming Berserk, Tatsou is really starting to piss him off, not just because it's Akako who's in danger, but the way he's using her. Akumu can't stand when people use others for their own selfish gain, it reminds him of how his father used his obedience as an excuse to kill Dokuga, because he was embarrassed of him. Akumu has mediated enough to suppress his anger but what Tatsou is doing will properly send Akumu off the edge and he'll become Berserk, and it won't matter to him if he shows Tatsou no mercy.    

Hell, Akako would LOVE to tear Tatsuo limb from limb, trust me on that one. But no matter what, she wouldn't want Akumu to go Berserk because he's out of control by then. Watching him turn into that is like watching herself turn into Death Akako (when the Eye is revealed); angered, out of control, reckless, and merciless. She would rather suffer what Tatsuo is doing, even if Akumu can't stand it, then watch him go Berserk. She doesn't care what Akumu does to Tatsuo, it's just getting Akumu calmed down again is what worries her. But with how things are going, she would probably have no choice but to witness it happen.

She has gone Death Akako on Tatsuo before, but she was being restrained by the other Faceless Demons, so she didn't get a chance to kill him

yeah, Berserk is why Akumu is ashamed to even look at his face. it was only triggered once and once was enough, don't want another Autumn of Ashes. but it  may be inevitable because it can only be triggered by strong emotions, which he is properly feeling now, but he properly wouldn't want Akako to see him like that    

well, it really depends if Akako was even there. More then likely, stupid Tatsuo would pull her in front of himself to show Akumu who had the upper hand e_e probably one of the stupidest things he did (and thank god Akumu didn't see this), Tatsuo kissed Akako just to try to see if she would fall for him again. Didn't work, obviously, but the fact that he did that just sent shivers all over Akako's body. At this point in time, she doesn't really care what happens to her as long as Akumu is ok. Actually, if Tatsuo tried to hurt him, she would lose control and go Death Akako once again, which isn't good because that means she's under the Death Demon's control again.

urgh, yeah Akumu wouldn't have liked that, let's just leave it at that. man, Akumu is starting to hate Tatsou even more than the villains I put him against. and we could potentially have two demons getting out of control on our hands, this is going to be wild. 

lol, you can say that again. Mind you, if Akumu went Berserk before Akako had a chance to go Death Akako, she would probably restrain it so she can try to calm him down as best as she could. I dunno...I wonder if he would even recognize her as Berserk. See, when Akako is Death Akako, she has absolutly no recollection of anything or anyone.

no he wouldn't , Berserk is berserk, he loses the ability to distinguish friend from foe, and mindlessly destroys all in his path until he calms down, which took more than a month last time, and he remembers all that happens, gets horribles nightmares. he's conscience but no longer can control his body or make rational decisions, pretty much a mindless beast. so it sounds like they have similar states where they have no control.   

Sounds like it. Although, Akako can't remember a thing when she's Death Akako because it's not really her, it's the Death Demon in her body. The Death Demon is scary as frack in her body! All of these different spirits covered in flames coming out and attacking things. Akako becomes scary looking too. The Eye is on her forehead and huge sections of her body just seem to fall off so sections of her skeleton is showing. On her cheek, usually a huge chunk is missing so you can see her eerie grin. When the Eye goes away, fire quickly comes up and turns Akako back to normal.

ooooooooooo eerie but cool.

oh, and thanks for the totorial links, hopefully they will help, cause i need it, lol.

oh, by the way, I don't know if you saw or not, but I responded to your comment on the "Showing me my own heart" pic in my gallery

O_<, yeah saw it and I responded. 

yeah it's pretty creepy, lol. Berserk can last for awhile, right? eh, Death Akako can last for a few minutes to a couple of days, but nothing more then that. Afterwards, Akako just passes out for a long time. Last time she went like that, she passed out and didn't wake up for several weeks. Tatsuo managed to escape from her when that happened. Hard to believe at one point in time, he DID love her. He treated her well in the beginning, which is what made her like him in the first place. But something happened and he just changed for the worst.

lol XD I'm writing a little oneshot that happens after the whole 'Renew of a Sacrafice' pic

OMFG YOUR ARTWORK IS THE BOMB!!!
Keep up the good artwork!

I'm photoshopping dokuga right now so I'm not really here. I talk to ya later and comment later.

omg you MUST see the new pic I just put in my gallery *_* I'm like in love with it! lol

lol, hi how was driver's ed? fun? jk. yo, now that I'll more awake I think i've got some ideas for you to draw if your still drawing a blank. well ya could draw a better Kokentu and color it, unless you don't know the colors yet or any of the new Akatsuki. or if you're up to it, you could draw another AkumuxAkako pic, but I know Akumu is hard to draw for you, but I think ya did great on him. I guess you can pick a part in the role play we did and illustrate that. but i like when you draw faceless demons, so maybe you can do one of the other three, lol I know by now what Akako looks like and you showed me a pic of Jaakuna once. anyway just some ideas for ya.    

<.< >.> umm...are you going to comment the new pics?

i'll get around to it, working right now on some of my own.

hahahaha....you wrote this before you checked out my gallery today, didn't you? lol, you might want to look at that first, then you can suggest things for me to draw =P

ok, i read till Ch 7 in HCB -_- ya happy? lol, jk, no it was really good. you make creating a website easy, impressive again. much easier using that than quizilla. i think the website only goes till Ch 7, I guess i'm caught up.I think Yasou more like vaporized him than blew him up, but the same foming and shaking, so it was very similar to when Akako fried a guy. so... about them hints, lol. ooo looks like you guys are going to have to make brand new Akatsuki, that's gonna be fun. like that new one, not goin to try and butcher his name, cause ya know who I'm talking about, began w/ a K, and so did some random guy on Ta Sanini's team too, so I'm going to get them confused.       

lol, you mean Kokentu? Yeah, I couldn't get his name at first either XD he's pretty cool looking too. Looks like a freaky demon =D hahaha, yep yep, new Akatsuki! I'm pretty sure Melina is the youngest member in it. They convinced her to join so they could use Akako's power (yes Akako is in the story! ^_^)

woot! confirmed! Akako's in it!! You should draw him, because for some reason i picture him look'n like Akumu, don't ask, I've got Akumu on the brain lately, lol.    

lol, nah, he doesn't look like Akumu. I am drawing him =D I'm making a huge picture with the entire new Akatsuki

Gomen for the delay! I didn't see the time based thing on your rules, but I had this done a long time ago and then got sick! XP I have the line art posted and will color it tonight!!! And then scan tonight! Sorry!!! The line art of your pic is posted, hope you like it! Colored work is soon to follow!
