Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yes. When I was a young girl, hiding in the village, I happened upon her," Katrina waved vaguely,"I was running away from some guards after I was running when I got caught running a small card trick...~" She chuckled at the last thing, absently,"She hid me when I bumped into her."

Katrina leaned her crossed arms on the kotatsu as she listened to Sabitsuki,"Ei, so you went to Kazami's house? Helped the brute, and what with the mole then...?" The demon's eyebrows furrowed as Sabitsuki broke off,"What. That....'That b***h. Its one thing to hurt that stupid-hornless-dope, but you. Even I don't want to do that. She is such a coward -! Ergg, tch!" She leaned back arms crossed under her chest, the aura around her turning wrathful and pressing. She really was annoyed. Katrina didn't like Yochi to begin with, and shw saw it as an abuse to hurt a small youkai like Sabitsuki; Even if she did know the power the mirror youkai had and when it was possible Yochi was hiding something worse than what Katrina was.

"Is the wound not closing?" She said a bit coldly due to her own anger at the moment, not moving much and keeping her arms crossed,"I can help you if it isn't. I've taken care of my wounds since I was split for my family... That mole. The nerve she has-!"

"Yes, you sister would jump and get herself killed by Yochi.. not because the mole would sully her hands, but because her little pet wouldn't let her get hurt. There is no way your sister could win against Yochi and the brute put together," Katrina said,"You are right; she would be severely hurt or simply killed."

The demon stood up, moving to Sabitsuki,"Don't worry, its not a problem. Not like I am doing anything anyway." She knelt by Sabitsuki, and removed the shawl, carefully moving to expose her shoulder enough to remove the bandages and look at the wound. Yup, it was a large cut. it seemed the mole had stab, wrenched and tore out. She surely knew what she was doing, the mole. "Yeah she tore some ligaments it seems... Let me see...." She stood once more and moved to the cabinet up in the side and opened it up. She came back to little youkai and settled down by her again.

"Alright this may hurt, so bite a pillow or something, or else Master Fuzen will wonder what I am doing to you," Katrina said flatly pulling out some alcohol to clean the wound, bathing a small rag in it, before mercilessly rubbing it over the deep wound. "Alright almost done," she muttered. By the time she finished the rag had a good amount blood. She moved to fetch some clean bandages looking a bit to the thread and needle meant to close wounds. Maybe she could, but that would no doubt hurt a lot more than the alcohol.

Katrina pondered on it, looking from the bandages to the needle for the bit, thinking of how she had had to close the wound that Yuuka had given her when she went to the shrine. She had had to sew it herself. "...Mh..." After working so securely, it was odd for her to stop now.

Katrina looked over at Sabitsuki then back at the thread and needle. She sighed, and took them in her hand,"Might as well do it while you are still numb from the alcohol on your wound," Katrina muttered. As she slid the thread through the needle and tied it's, she couldn't help but to want to not really care at all about Sabitsuki. It would make all this all that more easy to do,"This is probably going to hurt... Well, unless the skin around the wound that I am sewing is dead, it is going to hurt, but hopefully not as bad as the alcohol."

Katrina put a thumb and framed the wound in her hand wth her index finger, tentatively getting as close to the wound as she could so she could hold down the flesh. "Ready?... Erm you may want to bite that again, just in case," The demoness warned, before looking back to her hand and behinning to work as quickly and efficiently as she could.

She did have practice with the needle, she had fixed her clothes and her own wounds before, so the process was relatively quick. She really did try to stay focused on the needle and not the fact that it was perhaps hurting Sabitsuki a good amount.

Katrina worked trying to focus only on the wound in front of her. She muttered a few "I am almost done" or a "Hang on a bit" trying to ignore Sabitsuki's whimpers. As soon as she was done, she cut the thread using her teeth to not pull on the flesh. "There, I am done,Sabitsuki - Sabitsuki? Sabi-- Ah-" Katrina blinked as the young mirror fell to the side, catching her and bracing her weight easily.

The demoness's brows furrowed, but she carefully stood cradling the white-haired girl, and turned to set her in her bed. She was about to turn and pick up the things, but she found her eyes trailing Sabitsuki's figures, and her mind wondering to places it shouldn't. Katrina ran a hand over her face with a small groan, and biting her lip she turned around before chosing against it and returned to move Sabitsuki enough to tuck her under a blanket.

With that the Seven Sin Youkai moved to take the things and put them in the sink and gather the medical kit to put her away into the cabinets once more.

"It isn't out if anything else but out of returning the favor for keeping me company in the cave. You didn't shy from me, so I won't shy from you," Katrina said, trying to sound indiffrent,"I am simply paying for the faith you put in me. You know what I am; you know kindness isn't in my vocabulary."

All the while, she worked on washing the dishes trying not to pay attention to Sabitsuki, that temptation still latent in her heart."In any event, you may want to rest some more before you decide to get up, feel free to stay in the bed," The demoness said to The young mirror youkai as she turned to put away the silverware in the cabinet, feeling some relieve from walking away from her.

"... and you are welcome, I suppose," The Seven Sin Youkai muttered as she closed the cabinet, tryingnto not make eye contact with Sabitsuki,"If you walked hurt and shaky, people would wonder what's up with this place."

"Yes that is the only reason," the demoness said, trying to convince herself as much as Sabitsuki. She put away the last few things and having not much more to busy herself found herself with no other thing to do but look at the sweet little mirror that was tucked away in her bed.

When the young Mirror mentioned meeting 'the real Katrina' the maiden took it negatively. "You are a century too late for that," she grumbled plainly and bitterly,"That vaguely human part of me that was left by Master Fuzen's actions died with the hope I had in humanity years ago. Time passes through me like it does through a human's eyes; I will never forgive what the humans did to Amaterasu Katrina or their role in Livid's demise. The old me would, but I wouldn't dream of it, Miss Kaibutsu." As the Seven Sin Youkai spoke the aura of wrath begun to pulsate again, but when she saw Sabitsuki, so innocently resting, her wings relaxed and she calmed down, sitting down and putting the kotatsu between her and her guest for safe measure.

Katrina sighed as the young youkai continue to talk," Don't put too much faith in me, that isn't a smart thing to do." The demoness plucked a manderine from the the small bowl on the kotatsu and began to peel it with her sharp nails,"When people believe Sin has some right to exist is when those people lose themeselves."

Katrina listened to Sabitsuki, idly stabbing her nail into the Fruit. She watched the citrus pool around her sharp nail, detachly peering down at the fruit half imagining it as the blood of an unlucky victim. "If Sin is a creation of mankind, nothing but a Tall tale. Then why do I stand infront of you,...? Sin is instinct yes, but that does not make it any more rightful than taking someone's life."

"Resisting Sin and its instinct is what defers man from beast." She flicked the manderin free from her nail watching it land on the kotatsu with an useless plop. She finally lifted her eyes up to Sabitsuki as she Continued to speak and hide under the bed covers in some childish attempt to hide Her emotions.

Katrina stood and towered over the hidden youkai. Peeering down on the lump inside her bed, the demoness spoke again,"What you say you feel is a lie, at least to me it is."

She stretched her wings to their full span casting a Shadow over the bed. "I bet you don't know what it is like To rot from the inside out. To slowly lose Whatever faith,hope, and dreams You held. To lose your family and see the world its back on you...."

Slowly the energy of hatred And jealousy increased, but Katrinaa, feeling this, crossed her arms and closed her wings around her. "To feel your sanity and moral slip your grasp and see your own image turn into some twisted mockerh lf what you used to be." By the last words she had managed to usher into a pitiful voice reducing her pressing wave of emotion and closing it inside her wings.

"Perhaps. Here hate does not need a reason," Katrina answered plainly. Her eyes had trailed to the side stove trying to ignore the sad look Sabitsuki gave her. It wasn't till she could see Sabitsuki move and sit up in her bed that Katrina's eyes returned to the little mirror youkai.

At first the demon only raised her eyebrow, confused as to what her guest had planned, but once she begun to shake and cried out the sin youkai blinked. In sudden realization she turned around and caught sight of the lamp directly behind her. It was like the time Katrina had lured Sabitsuki to her shrine; when the aggressor had pinned the young youkai she had transformed into A mirror image of herself . It was obviously not the same thing, but this was part of the mirror youkai's Ability. Something fueled inside of her. Even Katrina herself wouldn't wishwish her life on Anyone.

When Sabitsuki cried out, she turned from the lantern to the little youkak infront of Ber. "Stop that! Don't be stupid!" Once more unwrapping her wings from around Her she stretched them a bit, freeing herself from her self-imposed restrain. She searched Sabitsuki's expression for some sort of clue to tell her the young girl was bluffing. Seeing only the pain, the demoness grew impotent.

She kneeled infront of Sabitsuki, "Stop looking for whatever you are looking because you won't find it." She looked into her eyes, part of her wanting to stop whatever Sabitsuki was doing. "Please stop it. I would not wish what I have seen upon you... please stop it."

Giving up, Katrina helplessly pushed up And embraced the mirror youkai. "You are only going to hurt yourself pointlessly. Stop now. you proved whatever you wanted to prove."
