Ochiba only seemed to close her eyes and let the woman hug her and cling to her, unused to physical affection, but it was very pleasant,"Wow this is very nice, a bun that tastes like you want! eehe,I still want to help you out if you eve need to! I am an earth rabbit, sturdy and reliable, call on me if you ever need to!"
The rabbit didn't seem to mind the tendon things comming ffrom the fear youkai. The old rabbit had seen many things, she feared unusual things. Tentacles, slime, and creatures and vampires she was used to, and seeing through any illusion or lie, she much rather fear all that people concealed
"Hey, Mr Nauhmar, you got a tentacle-thing hanging-" The rabbit pointed, eating a bit more of the bun and pushing her glasses once more (they seemed far too larger for her.)

-Nahumar- -Hanalli- Nahumar heard her realization, letting the other three tendons go and reveal themselves.
"I have four of them, actually. They are used for many things. But the main function is to help gather fear for my body." Nahumar explained as Hanalli continued.
"Emotion Youkai, like Nahumar and I, tend to thrive only on humans and what emotions are released. Alternatively, we found some sources of the emotions other than humans. For me, It's Dandelions. Nahumar here eats chocolate or Cacao beans. Our third sister, who would just love to see you, eats roses of any variety. She is the Youkai of Sorrow. The three of us manage the emotions and do our part." she used her staff to pick up one of Nahumar's weird rabbits and also demonstrated how they hate getting pets by wiggling around before running off. Nahumar then noticed her glasses being much too big for Ochiba.
"Little one? Are you sure that thing on your face is not too big?" Hanalli simply grinned. Taking advantage of the situation at hand.
"They are glasses, Nahumar. And they add to her cute factor!"

Ochiba listened quite curiously,"Oi, so the tendons scare people? And there is one more of you? Thats so cool!" The rabbit smiles,"Of course I wouldn't Mind Meeting your other sister, you two are to kind."
When the purple bunny was picked up with the staff and wiggled away The Earth Rabbit picked up on of her own companions who had been playing with the other bunnies. She petter it,"My bunny friends don't mind it one bit, see?" The little thing was enjoyin itself as Saiseki scratched behind its ear.
Once she set the bunny down she looked to Nahumar and Hanalli as they talked about her glasses,"A-ah, yes...they are a little to big for me-" she blushed sligthly at Hanalli calling her cute,"But, being honest, I can't really fix it...it is just a matter of pushing them a bit, so they make do!"
She took off her glasses, and squinted around,"Besides, I really do need them. I can see through illusions and lies with a 20/20, but my actual sight is completly messed up!"

-Nahumar- -Hanalli--Sorina- Nahumar motioned for one of his own to come close. They complied and sat next to him.
"The power to see through illusions and lies. That is a power worth keeping. So we will tell the truth-" Nahumar was interrupted as Sorina entered the area. Her long kimono and blueish hair complimented her aura of sorrow.
"Oh my! Nahumar, who is the guest?" Hanalli then put her arm around Sorina's shoulder to introduce her.
"This is Ochiba! Ochiba, this is Sorina. Youkai of Sorrow. Don't let her size fool you, she is younger than I." Sorina bowed as a sign of welcome. She looked over at Nahumar and then the rabbits.
"I guess she must of mistook your Fear Bugs for Rabbits." Nahumar shrugged, looking down at the purple rabbit. He didn't want to talk about his so called children just yet. But with Sorina here, it was the perfect chance.
"Sorina. You came at a good time. I was just about to tell our friend about our long gone sister, Anera." Sorina and Hanalli looked the other way. Wishing to not speak of their fourth emotion. No matter how many years it has been, their memory of the incident will always be fresh as long as humans live on.
"Nahumar. We talked about this...
"Even now, It's as if I could feel the burning buildings and fresh human blood..." They seem to of taken the memory much harder than Nahumar. After all, Fear truly is a horrifying taste to the others. Then he thought of something...
"I think it's best if we talk about it and let more beings know. So they can understand why it happened."

The rabbit waved at third sibling returning the bow out of courtesy,"Pleasure to meet you~"
"Well, I am pretty weak, and I can't fight, my ability hasn't been put to good use,"Ochiba chuckled, but stopped as the mood of the two other emotions shifted, and the mention of flesh human blood caught her attention. The youkai sat down, pulling one of the rabbits onto her lap as her bunny ears gave a slight twitch.
"They used to say that talking about things help," Ochiba offered, and smiled trying to be comforting,"And I am willing to listen, that is, if you want to speak!"

Out of the three, Hanalli was the one who knew more than the rest. she did her best to keep it upbeat but the ending is what she truly hated.
"Well, back as far as I know, there were four of us. We four were made to help manage and direct human emotions. Her name was Anera, Youkai of Anger. She had such wonderful crimson red hair in her human form. She was well known for her combat skills before the spell card system and even Gensokyo. Nahumar was really attached to Anera. We may not be truly blood related, but we were like siblings in many ways. One day, Anera watched a human treat a forest imp like it was a pest. She said that the human kicked the imp into the tree for trying to plant a flower on the ground and in the path way. It didn't cause any harm to the road at all. Soon, she monitored the humans. Their rage began filling her's. She slowly stopped coming with us to our lunch meetings. And when we saw her, she simply repeated the lines 'Humans are evil'."
Granted, we know they can be a bit over the top, but it was nothing to get so angry about. Then...she snapped. Anera soon forced a village of humans to attack one another for no reason. Men. Women. Even children fought one another in blind and false anger. When we arrived to see her work, Sorina and myself nearly gagged. It's one thing to kill a human, but how she killed them...was with her own power that was meant to prevent a situation like this. so the three of us had to kill her. She put up a grand fight. Every blow could of killed us. That is, until Nahumar finally took action. He ripped her body into three parts to separate her own power as we consumed her. Thus, we have Anger out of Joy or love. Anger of Sorrow and Anger of Fear. When one is ever enraged, it could be either three of us. For pure, undying anger is barbaric and inhumane for both our kind." During the story, Sorina held her arm and looked at the ground. Her aura of sadness becoming stronger. Nahumar's own aura grew of the fear they saw. Both of them caused Hanalli's aura to fade for the time.
"She was always weak minded in the end..." Sorina commented. Nahumar simply snapped his finger to break the mood.
"Hanalli. You should not get too upset. It's not like you at all. We would of all died had we not tried to kill her." Nahumar handed what looked like a yellow Tulip. Hanalli slowly grew back to her smile, grabbing it and holding the flower close.
"Damn you Nahumar! For a beast of terror, you sure know how to warm a girl's heart!" Hanalli was radiating with happiness by now, tacking Nahumar in a loving embrace. Sorina lightly giggled.
"You were right. It does feel better to let others hear. Thank you Little Ochiba." Sorina bowed once more, showing her gratitude.

"Losing someone you love is always sad, even more if they are a sibling," Ochiba had already begun to see them as brother and sisters, they made a really cute family in her blind eyes that saw nothing clear but the truth. "In the end, you all did what was right to save the humans, didn't you...? It must have been tough..."
Sorina's own sadnes, and Nauhmar's fear was definitely felt by the smaller youkai, but she did her best to give a comforting smile, when Sorina spoke to,"See? Getting things off your chest is always good~" She got up and held her rabbit friend up for Sorina to take and pet,"You are all heroes for what you did, I will have you know!"

-Nahumar- -Hanalli--Sorina- Sorina pet the rabbit lightly.
"We are not heroes at all. That term is more or less used for humans. We prefer doing our job." Hanalli soon got up from Nahumar, starting to head out.
"I'll see you some other time, Nahumar. And Ochiba? Don't let Nahumar feel you up with his crab legs!" Hanalli winked before flying out of Nahumar's range.
"THEY ARE NOT CRAB LEGS!" he growled. Nahumar tossed one danmaku ball, but she easily avoided it before leaving. Sorina giggled once more.
"What's so funny?" Nahumar questioned her.
"I-it's nothing Nahumar. Crab legs..."
"Not you too..." It seemed like a fine day already. Sorina looked to Ochiba, running a hand down her cheek.
"Don't worry about what Hanalli said."

"Well crab legs have more joints you know?" Ochiba chuckled placing her glasses on, giving them an extra push, as Sorina spoke,"Oh, ther eis few things that scare me, I know Miss Hanalli was just joking around."
She chuckled herself,"She is a very playful youkai."

-Nahumar--Sorina- "Hanalli is actually the eldest, but her powers tend to make her more playful and almost child like." Sorina enjoyed her time already. Nahumar got up and sat on the steps, looking at the two with a small smile.
"In any case, weren't you here to get your friends back? I am sure they could be hungry by now. That or Hanalli gave them some bits of her bread." Nahumar turned his Gaze into another part of the forest. He felt as if a human was attempting to reach his bell once more. The remaining purple rabbits dashed into the woods and took their posts.
"Do not mind them. My little ones are just going to give the human a scare every now and again. They may look like rabbits, but they are not mammals by any means. They are actually a beetle like creature I made to look like rabbits. They have no illusion on them, but I can tell you their real form is a cross between a ladybug and Hercules beetle. The small dots on them emit a weird light and can give not only illusions but trick the mind into thinking a horrible monster or their most feared image is nearby. And if the human passes out, they carry him to a more lighter part of the forest. Possibly near that weird Black and White's house." He seemed so proud of the little creatures. Surely, the human that was indeed in the forest met one of the bugs and screamed before leaving. The critters returned while the one who scared the human approached Nahumar and started to squeak in a more bug like manner.
"Really? That easily? Well I will give him credit for attempting. Most humans fail to even set foot in the forest at all." Nahumar looked at the critter, then revealed one of them to show their true image.
The shell was a perfect circle with four dots in total in a box like shape. The front horn curved upward, but was not sharp at all. Their size was more or less as big as an adult rabbit of six feet long. Sorina smiled at Nahumar.
"Every time I see their real form, I can't help but think of a crab more than a beetl-"
"For the last time. I am not a crab. My tendons look like that only when I am in combat."

"How cute, she is very friendly," She blinked towards Nahumar,"Oh I was, sorry if my presence has become an inconvinience, my friends and I will be moving along th-"
She watched the purple rabbits dash by, blinking after them, her glasses to the tip of her nose,"Oh, I see! Its not an illusion, so that is why I can't see through them." Once the rabbit returned and was exposed a beetle, Ochiba leaned over it, inspecting it curiously, so enthralled that her glasses almost fell off her. She caught them quickly before they hit the beetle below her.
Straigthening out once more she chuckled,"The black and white? She has left out things for me to eat sometimes she is very nice. And the humans should be thankful, afterall, some youkai don't give them a scare rather, they take their meat and bones and souls. So they really ougtha be happy allthey got was a scare~!" She finished her sentence by placing her glasses, and puttingnher hands at her hips, with a sure nod.

-Nahumar--Sorina- "Of course. I am thankful I can even stand in the daylight like this. For my real image would kill you just from one stare. If my memory serves me right, Hanalli is really a ball of light, hence her sunny attitude." Nahumar mentioned. Sorina nodded and explained her real self.
"She is the lucky one. For I truly have longer nails and no face with grey skin. However, looking human has given me a better outlook on life. I could do my best to warn and help humans." Then he returned to the topic.
"If anything, those who wish to live with humans have both taken up a chance to change their appearance and learned to take in moderation. While the ones who you describe choose to stay closer to the more primal version of their old ways. Kill and eat humans without remorse. They do not wish to find alternative food sources. Then again, those type are merely pests. Not like Fairies or even Vampires." Nahumar looked up at the sky to see the time.
"I wish I could stay longer Nahumar. But I have to get home. Goodbye little Ochiba. It was very nice to meet you." She bowed once more before walking into the forest and vanishing from sight. Nahumar laid back and drew his eyes at the bell.
"It has truly been a while since I have seen another Youkai that did not want my head. Though I seem to shut myself from the world, I am merely doing my job. We have no need for human interaction all the time. Just rumors are fine enough to keep us alive in this world. That and emotions. But I am open for conversation anytime. Maybe next time, I could get some tea and possibly snacks." To Nahumar, meeting a new face was more or less meeting another being to play with. He met many kinds of beings for a while in his time. Two of his tendrils picked another pod from the crate to crack open and feed himself.

"Bye Miss Sorina, pleasure to meet you!" Ochiba waved as the second sister left, before turning to listen to Nahumar. She brought a finger to her lip thoughtfully as she listened. The rabbit gave a small Oh![/o] as she brought a fist onto her open palm, as if she had an idea.
"How about I work for you!" the rabbit asked with the smallest hop,"I can alway got the village and get things for you, I am less dangerous looking than fairies, and the village sounds interesting! I can help around the mare too!"
She looked down at her companion bunnies who exchanged glances,"I am sure they can help too! Though, I wouldn't bet on it, they can't make mochi like their Bamboo-Forest cousins...."
"Not the point..." She shook her head with a grin and hands on her hips once more,"I can help you around, and all I would want for pay is company!"
Is....that even legal in modern day? Or was that the definittion of a job..? Well! It was enough for little Ochiba Saiseki!

-Nahumar- Nahumar closed his eyes and thought about her offer. He never had a real reason to go to the village at all to begin with. But helping around is another thing.
"You see, I do not need anything from the human village. Neither would I go there, unless I was called for an emergency...if any would rise, that calls for my skills. But you are welcome around here anytime you wish. I may have something for you to help me with, but as of now, i can't quite remember..." Nahumar seemed like the kind of being that enjoyed life for what it's worth and did his part in the world. He reclined back on the steps and looked at the sky. He tried to remember the small task he wanted to finish, but could not think at the time.

Ochiba tilted her head,"Oh I thought you got your supplies from there, many of the youkai, get their things from there!" The rabbit sat downi indian style, and pulled foward her bag, pulling out things and giving them to the different bunnies,"I am happy to help if I can! and thanks for allowing me back, usually I am alone with the bunnies, and your sisters are really amazing~"
