Ch4: Sliver Claw, Sliver Tongues

Gripping his Jacket, Taur kept trudging up the Mountain as the Icy Winds blew at him, Jacket waving in the wind as he paid no mind to the Stab wound in his leg as the bleeding at stops ages ago. Pride and Sonya gliding on the Winds as they followed the Bull who had no knowledge of what the Sliver Claw even was, only the urge to retrieve the 'Blood' and not to have a Katana-wielding Demon forever resent him kept him going as he soon stopped. Tired and aching, Taur checked his pockets as the Senior Demons watched from afar as they saw Taur pull out a Tag from the Metal Case which the Gauntlets he wore arrived in, Sonya grinned.

"A little touch of mine~" Sonya mentioned to Pride as he watched quietly, Sonya soon flapping over to him as she rubbed his Shoulder.

"Pride, come on, cheer up, Say something Sarcastic!" Sonya suggested as Pride puffed, Taur holding a Flame in his hands as he silently thanked the Gauntlet for the warmth the flame provided.

"You would touch the Bull wouldn't you?" Pride commented as Sonya poked her tongue out, winking as she flew back from Pride.

"I would! You know how much I admire Steak.~" The Demoness teased as Pride's face twitched in a smile before looking back to Taur only to not see him, Pride jolting up and flying down as he looked to where the footprints were only to see the trail stop halfway at a small incline as Pride gripped his sword tightly, Sonya floating down and landing, also checking the footprints.

"He's still around, I can feel his Gauntlet, come on, we'll walk and talk!~" Sonya offered as she walked optimistically up the Incline, Pride huffing as he pulled his hood up and jogged after Sonya.

ELSEWHERE.

Taur stood, wide eyed in surprise as the Rock wall had suddenly flipped around, revealing a Secret Entrance as the warmth of the Burning torches on the wall reminded him why he was here and he shook his shoulders as the White Snow fell off him. The Bull walked in and huffed, looking to the Red Steel Gauntlet on his hand as he noticed the Yellow Gem on the Back of his Hand glowing before he felt a Hand on his shoulder, he turned only to feel a punch to his Face as he stumbled back, his vision blurred as he swear he saw a Ninja in Gray and Black standing there as it moved it's hand to it's belt. Taur realized he was going to be fighting again as he soon threw the fireball at the Ninja as didn't expect the arcane Fireball before it collided into the Ninja before the Ninja started screaming in pain. Taur soon running past.

"And fuck you too!" He called as another Ninja soon dashed out in front of him, Boxing Reflexes kicking in, Taur slid as he skidded across the Wet stone and turned his Waist before soon swinging his Right fist with a Solid thud and crack as the Armoured Fist collided with the Ninja's Head, sending the quickly bloodied Ninja another three that assembled as Taur tackled the triplets down, his size at least half a Body taller than them as they were knocked into the Stone columns and fell with a thud. Taur sprinting at this point, somewhat in disbelief.

"I punched a Ninja in the Face..." He said to himself as he burned a Lone Grunt up ahead before punching said Ninja into the Window-sill as he fell out with a scream, Taur grinning as he charged into the Hall.

"I PUNCHED A FUCKING NINJA IN THE FACE!" The Bull shouted as a Knife slid across his Gauntlet with no effect, grabbing the Ninja's wrist and throwing him into other knives that were aimed at Taur.

MEANWHILE ON THE OUTSIDE

Pride kept walking silently as Sonya lectured him on how she got her latest cutie while Pride thought about his Sister, how hard he had fought to escape his Family while they swore to kill Agony, Pride's eyes hidden by his Blue fringe. 'Agony... We've come so far... If only that Angel didn't show up thanks to that Ignorant Bull...' The Legendary Ninja thought before soon stopping, Sonya staring through his Fringe, irritated as Pride suddenly stopped, surprised that she could tell the difference between him been quiet and him being distracted.

"You're not listening to me are you Pride?" Sonya asked as Pride nodded slowly, The Demoness soon sighing and hugging him tightly as the Wolf stood, silent, again ignoring her Pale white breasts on his chest.

"Pride... I know you've had it rough and after what you and Agony went through it's a wonder you're still here, let alone attempting to take down to a Clan of Thieves, And I respect that, but Pride, you'll never help your Sister if you're moping around instead of being proud of what you've accomplished." She said as she shut her eyes while she hugged him, eyes opening in surprise as she felt Pride's hands hug her back as the two embraced each other on the Mountain side, the Snow doing nothing to the warmth they shared.

IN THE MOUNTAIN

The Grunts soon dashed to a thick door and pushed against it as they heaved Steel bars to hold the Door shut, the others soon prepared their Weapons as their leader sat on her Throne, looking to the Capsule which was about the Size of a Keg before standing up. She both loved and hated this part, the fun part been that anyone who made it this far proved to be a lot of fun. But alas, they'd soon tire out and fall. The Thief Leader jolted her head up as the Door soon bludged against the Pressure of the Intruder, a deep voice bellowing.

"Give back what you stole and I'll leave without hurting anyone else!" The voice called as the Woman soon stepped off her Makeshift throne and flicked her hand, soon glinting with Ninja Stars.

"Ain't gonna happen Tough Man!" She called, Taur snorted and soon went silent, only the sound of Footsteps outside could be heard as the Leader binked, if he was going to do what she thought he was going to do then it wouldn't work, the doors covered in Flame resistant wax as the sound of footsteps crashing towards the door soon echoed in the room as the Grunts soon turned Pale out of Panic.

"Mess with a Bull-" The Door soon flung open as the Grunts were soon pinned behind the door or skidded across the floor, several Ninjas leapt at him as Taur simply backhanded three whilst burning the other Four, the three crashing into the Piles of Gold while the other four flailed on the Floor, screaming as Taur looked around, the Floor now in a dip of a crater as Arches on the Walls showed Bars of Gold and Tomes, Scriptures and whatever else the guild had felt was precious as Taur noticed a Cat girl wearing tight fitting Black Leotard while belts looped around her waist, Arms and her right thigh while the Catgirl smiled.

"Ah Welcome Minotaur! What can the Sliver Hand help you with?" She grinned as she waved her hand to the piles of gold, Taur however noticed a large capsule which had some sort of thick Blue Liquid in it, the Catgirl soon pushing the capsule behind her seat with her tail as he smiled innocently, some of the Ninjas able to come back to conciseness as they groaned, some sitting up.

"I want what's in that Capsule." Taur demanded as the Catgirl shook her head.

"Sorry, but's a very expensive item, and you don't look like Royalty to me, besides, you never asked nicely." She replied as a Ninja soon threw a smoke bomb at Taur before two fireballs whizzed out of the smoke, one burning the Ninja as they other flew at the Cat Burglar who simply took a step right as it flew onto a candle, the Catgirl flicking her Ninja Stars into the cloud as they some rung out with a Metal ting. The Smoke cleared to show Taur having his Gauntlet shield him as two laid on the floor, one lodged into his stomach as the Catgirl crossed her arms.

"You are the most persistent Person I've met yet." The Catgirl complemented sarcastically as Taur nodded soon pointed at the Leader of the thieves, no sign of flames showing on him as a blood stain soon formed on his shirt.

"Sorry but what's your name?" The Large Bull asked as the Catgirl raised a brow before smiling, laughing quietly.

"My name is Jupiter Slivers, and what is your name?" She asked as her tail slid up her back, feeling for the Ninjustu scroll she'd hidden, Taur grinned slightly.

"I'm Taur Caliso, and if you don't hand over that canister Jupiter I'm going to rip you apart!" He threatened as Embers blew off his body, the small specks of flame floating in the air behind him as he teeth stood gritted, Fists clenched as her tail curled around the Scroll.

"My My, What a temper-" She said calmly as she waved her Fingers in the air before her Green eye shone with a deceitful smirk, her tail flicking as she caught the scroll and pushed it towards Taur, who was distracted by the Scroll as it's Magical properties shot from the paper, the Magic soon morphing to ice cold Water as Taur's eyes widened in time to the launched out of the room, Jupiter laughing as the Bull's grunts and cries heard as the excruciating pain of being dowsed soon hit Taur as fast as the Water blast, Jupiter holding the Scroll with her Sliver Fingernails.

"-I think you'd better cool off!" She laughed as visualized the Bull been knocked down the stairs but was soon silenced as she saw Red claws gripping the column of the Door, then a Red Gauntlet before seeing Taur stand up and stagger in, Embers emanating off his body as she saw them dry him quickly.

"I know how to swim thanks, you might need some water though to wash off all that ugly makeup. Or is that just you normally look?" Taur chuckled as the Master Thief soon bared her fangs and drew her Short Ninja Swords: Ninjatos.

"You're going to die now." Jupiter growled as Taur grinned as Fireballs grew in his palms.

"Oh good, save me the pleasure of seeing your ugly face." He grinned as Jupiter soon snarled as she launched off the Platform and darted at Taur who leapt at her with Flames crackling in his hands, soon swiping at him, Gauntlet blocking the attack as claws sparked from the Impact, Taur shoving forward with Fires burning, Jupiter speeding past the flames as the Canister rattled from the Nearby flames, the Bull looking around for the Thief as looked around rapidly for the Master thief.

"Where'd you go?..." The flame-wielding Bull asked quietly as he snapped his head to the sound of footsteps, only to feel a giant weight on his back, yelling out at the pain as he flew into a Bookself with a crack, Jupiter landing in the centre of room, flicking her wrists as Taur's eyes widened, soon grabbing the Bookself and pushing the heavy bookcase into the way of the Shruikuns, the ninja stars landing with a dull ding before Taur tackled the Bookcase, soon sending it sliding at Jupiter who rolled out of the way and soon threw more Ninja stars only for Taur to block it with his Gauntlet, retaliating by charging straight at her as she jumped out the way, the Bull colliding with the Stone Column and cracking it as he charged again, the Catgirl just standing up as she turned with surprise as she felt Taur's tackle, Taur still running as he slammed her to the Wall as she gasped in pain, Taur growling as he set his palms on fire again.

"I gave you a chance." The tall bull grunted before he open his claw by her face, flames streaming onto her face as Taur gritted his teeth, pushing his intent as the Flames turned hotter before the Master Thief's hand shot out towards the assaulting hand and grabbed it's claws, the flames stopping as Jupiter grinned a wide grin, face untouched except for a few black marks.

"Fire doesn't hurt other Demons dumbass, We're born in hell, place of Fire and sin!" She said before pushing her hand down, a new strength bending back his fingers as four snaps could be heard, Taur yelling out in pain as he snatched his hand away, taking a few steps back as Jupiter kicked her heel with a scowl and bounced off the wall, twirling as the Wounded Bull only caught a glimpse of the knife sticking out of her shoe before feeling the right side of his face burning in Pain.

"AHHHHHHH!" Taur yelled out as he gritted his teeth so hard he thought they might snap, looking to his mangled fingers inside the Gauntlet as he looked up to see Jupiter walking over, her face now one plastered with victory as Taur felt rage against this woman, the Large yellow gem on his Gauntlet shining as Jupiter opened her Palm, a White ball forming in her hand as Japanese symbols spun around her sphere.

"Taur was it? Tell whoever it was that sent you: thanks for the Horn Ornament." The Master Thief smiled sinisterly, firing the Ball at Taur, the ball zooming to his head before it froze, Claws sealing it as Jupiter's eyes surprised as Taur gripped the Ball, the Ball soon exploding his Claw as it rattled his body, however, it failed to go any bigger than his Hand as the Gauntlet soon burned up, it's flames a mix of red and white as they covered Taur's Arms, the Gem shining as Embers fell off Taur, scowling.

"...You mess with a Bull..." He growled soon leaping at the Girl as she put the scroll infront of herself, Water rushing out as Taur leapt above, swinging off the Chandelier and falling to Jupiter with a Flaming punch pulled back, he swung as Jupiter swerved under the Swing, as she ducked she noticed Taur spinning in a complete 360, both flaming fists coming at her as Taur uppercutted her stomach with the flaming punch as she coughed blood, being raised into the Air as she saw his broken left hand coming at her face as it pummeled into her, all she could see was black while Taur' s Rage sent her into the wall, embedding her in it as cracks etched across the Wall.

"YOU GET THE HORNS!" The flaming bull shouted, charged as he ducked his head down, Jupiter in too much pain to move as he slammed his head into her chest, feeling her breasts accidently as her body soon sailed through the wall and into the Snowing mountain as she sailed into the air before a purple crescent soon flew after her, colliding with her in the distance as the two exploded. Taur panting and watching before turning to Pride, Mumurusa glowing Purple as his left eye shone purple before sheathing it, eye turning blue as his fringe soon hid it. Taur giving a small grin as he extinguished the Flames, hearing a cheer only to get tackled by Sonya, who's cleavage was currently held by Taur's face as she hugged him.

"Awwww! Look at you, you killed your first Demon, I'm so proud of you!~" She giggled as Taur felt his face turn pink from the feeling of Sonya's soft breasts on his face as he pushed them away for decency sakes.

"It was nothing! Really! Can you get off me please?" The Bull pleaded as Pride promptly teleported, Sonya obliging as she stood up, Taur nearly unable to see her face from her massive bust before standing up also, Pride returning as he held a Red Soul, the Tail of the said soul jerking erratically as the Wolf took the Soul and downed it in a single Bite, soon he glowed a faint blue before looking to Taur and Sonya, frowning.

"No sign of the Phoenix Blood on her body." Pride reported as Sonya huffed, Taur soon jolting up and jogging back into the Den as Pride looked to Sonya, who shrugged before following the Bull, soon finding him behind a Throne, pushing the Throne away as he held up the Canister, it's blue liquid moving around as Taur grinned a wide grin, feeling proud of himself as Pride's glow became a little brighter, Sonya looking at the Canister with concern as Taur noticed the Demoness's frown.

"You ok Sonya?" The Bull asked as Sonya pointed to the Canister, Taur following her point.

"Can you open it?" Sonya asked as Pride suddenly raised a brow, recognising the Sustance as Taur nodded, carefully turning the Handle of the Canister as the Liquid jiggled inside, Taur not noticing as Sonya tried to warn him before the Lid came off, the Liquid soon shooting out and knocking Taur to the Floor as the Liquid soon grouped together before forming into a slime substance, Human features forming as eyes, mouth, nose and Hair soon formed as Taur glanced down to see breasts forming as well, soon feeling his blush he looked away as the Slime girl rubbed her eyes, soon blinking as she noticed Taur looking away from her and her Lap on the Bull's waist as she soon blushed a bright red and slapped Taur's face, soon recoiling.

"Wuuu!" She called angrily as Taur grunted, wincing from the Slap as he felt slime on his face, soon flicking it back onto the Blue Slime Girl, Sonya raising a brow as Pride grinned at Taur, feeling the smack, Sonya waving to the unknown Slime girl, the Slime Girl looking at her surprised.

"Who are you?" Sonya asked as the Slime girl tilted her head.

"Wu?" She asked as the Demoness sighed and grabbed the Scroll of Water at pointed it at the Slime Girl as a small trickle of Spring water dribbled out, the Slime girl rushing to it as it poured onto her, going through her slime as she grew ever so slightly, soon sighing in relief as she smiled, nodding to Sonya.

"Thank you Demoness." The Slime smiled as Sonya smiled in return, Taur standing confused as Sonya extended her hand to Pride and Taur.

"I'm Sonya Entrunus, This is Pride Siun and Taur... Caliso?" The Succubus guessed as the Bull nodded, the Slime girl waving at Pride.

"Hi Pride, I'm Wiu." The Slime girl revealed as Pride blinked before nodding.

"Nice to meet you." He said, Sonya holding her Chin as Taur raised his hand.

"Hey Wiu? Why were in that Container?" The Bull asked as Slime crossed her arms, looking back to Sonya.

"They were going to sell me as a Sex Slave..." She says quietly as Sonya hugged her in comfort as Pride soon walked to the piles of Stolen goods, Taur feeling his nose bleed from the Slime and Demoness's busts rub together, Sonya's boobs shining from the slime Wiu had before he quickly looked away and walked over to massive pile of Gold, grinning as he picked up a Pile of it, gold coins falling from his claw as felt Pride standing next to him.

"Don't even think about it, that belongs to the Village now." He instructed as Taur sighed and dropped the pile he held in his hand, Pride nodding as Wiu gave Sonya a bottle of Neon Orange Liquid as she nodded before Sonya walked over to Taur, smiling as she poked his nose.

"Guess which pervert is carrying all this back to the Village?!" Sonya sang as Taur slumped over the pile of gold, Pride putting a hand on Taur's shoulder as he glanced up at the Wolf, Pride struggling to state what he felt.

"I... I'm sorry for blaming you, it was foolish... and rash..." Pride mumbled, not wanting Sonya to hear as Sonya acted innocently, Taur sighing and standing up.

"Pride, dude, it's cool, I probably have a Power level or something that's just too high." The Bull grinned as Pride looked at him, face blank in unamusement.

"Never say that again." He warned before turning and leaving with Sonya, who had curled her wings around Wiu to keep her warm in the Cold snow, Taur sighing as he grabbed the corners of the Rug and pulled the pile of Gold to the newly made hole in the guild's wall before pushing it outside, soon grabbing the tarp as he struggled to not let go, the amount of gold creating a surprised amount of weight for the Muscular bull to pull as Sonya and Wiu laid back in the Demoness's warm arms, Pride walked beside Taur as the wind shook his Hoodie and clothes as he continued to walk, before tapping Taur's shoulder, the bull turning to him.

"Yeah?" He grunted as he carefully walked with the pile of Gold, Pride glancing over with a slight grin.

"Have fun?" He asked as Taur turned the gold around, now pushing it around a corner.

"Sorta. Hnngh!" He answered as Pride helped, pushing his foot onto the Gold as it slid easily, the Gauntlet-wielding Bull looked to Pride.

"Thanks, truth be told, knives sting like a motherfucking bitch... But I suppose it's better than those Holy Lances." He shrugged as Pride nodded, soon walking beside him as trio walked down the Mountain. Later, they returned to the Village as the Townspeople stared at the Wolf and Demoness walking alongside each other as the Muscle-bound bull dragged a pile of Gold bars behind him before dropping it into the center of the Village, Pride, Wiu and Sonya walking into Pride's house as Taur looked to them before turning back to the Village people.

"This is yours." The Bull said, looking to the villagers with a tired look in his eyes as he turned and walked to Pride's house as the Villagers soon scrambled over the Gold, Taur walking inside as he turned into the Lounge room to see Pride getting a Needle and extracting the Phoenix Blood as Sonya read from a Brown book with an Amethyst in its centre, its contents a fiery orange and Red as it flowed inside the Needle, Pride jabbing the needle into Agony's Petite White chest, her body glowing a light orange before the Orange glow shrunk to her arm and turned red, burning away the Ice by her organs as Sonya soon began to chant from a Book she was reading, Wiu sleeping peacefully in a Leather chair as her Green body shone in the Fire's light.

"Agony..." Pride muttered under his breath, Sonya's eyes shutting as her mouth spoke a language that Taur couldn't translate, Wiu shivered a little at the words spoken, the Wolfess's wounds closing as the wounds glowed Green, her stomach slowly repairing itself as it shut completely, Sonya stopping as Pride removed the Needle from Agony as she soon winced, opening her eyes with a yawn as her Red Eyes glowed a dull red.

"Brother..." She said quietly as Pride immediately latched onto her with a hug, face on her chest as Sonya smiled, Taur, feeling that he'd be allowed in; walking in as Sonya motioned for him to be quiet. Agony stroking her big brother's head as Pride looked up.

"Agony, you got hurt really bad by Freziara..." The Wolf said with a little bit of worry, waiting a few seconds for a response before Agony burst out laughing, Wiu awakening a little as Sonya smiled and stroked her slimy hair, the Green slime falling asleep once more.

"Dum Dum! I get stronger when people hurt me!" She laughed, hugging her brother's head before noticing Sonya and Taur.

"Did Auntie Sonya and Bull look after me? And who is the other girl?" The small Wolf girl asked, head tilted as Pride smiled.

"No, they helped me find the proper ingredients to make you feel better, and that girl's name is Wiu, she was trapped by the Bad Person who had the Ingredients." Her Brother explained, hand brushing over her forehead, Agony giggling and murring as she shut her eyes.

"It's... Taur, by the way Agony..." The Gauntlet wielder said quietly as Agony blinked before patting her Brother's head, the Samurai Wolf letting her go as Agony got out of bed with shaky legs before attempting to walk over to Taur. The Bull feeling incredibly nervous as she steadily came closer, the Skintight White jumpsuit detailed with Red Swirls only made her seem more ambiguous and possibly violent as she shook with every step before falling onto Taur's waist with a hug, Sonya gasping as Pride watched silently, Taur raising his hands in surprise as she hugged him, small white arms around his waist as her forehead rested on his stomach.

"Thank you... Buttface." Agony said, muffled as spoke into his shirt, Taur feeling slightly better as he felt that maybe Agony wasn't all bad... Maybe it was only because she was a demon that she had her warped sense of Humour, she was been affectionate, the Bull seemed to think that while she was far from sympathy, she did have Emotions, Taur placed a hand on her head and stroked her white head with a small smile, Agony looking up with a sinister smile as Taur immediately started to feel pale from her malicious aura.

"Taur? Why does your crotch poke my neck?" She lied as Pride's eyes immediately flared Blue as Agony let go of Taur soon enough as Taur sped out the door, Pride following behind with the Murmurusa sparking behind him, swearing profusely at Taur as he broke apart the door in an attempt to injure him, Agony giggling as Sonya leant down and nuzzled her.

"It's good to see you feeling better Agony, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to tickle you anymore~" Sonya smiled as Agony murred and nuzzled her cheek affectionately, her white arms around the Demoness's ribs.

"I'm feeling a lot better Auntie Sonya, but you'd have my brother and the dumb Bull to tickle." The Small demon smiled as Sonya sighed and hugged her close, Sonya's breasts covering Agony's chest.

"Silly girl, Your brother hates my tickles, and Taur... I'm sure he's ticklish but he'd be very grumpy... Unless I gave him a special kiss~" Sonya giggled, Agony smiling and kissing Sonya's cheek as Taur's yells could be heard alongside the Samurai's vengeful cries.

"I'm going to make sure I learn Aunty's special kisses too!" Agony smiled as Sonya tilted her head, picking up the small demoness.

"Why do you want to know that?" The Large Breasted Demoness asked as Agony fidgeted, looking down at her cleavage, Sonya focusing on what she asking.

"Because Boys do anything for you and your know that special Magic..." Agony said quietly as Sonya giggled quietly.

"Oh my sweet Niece, you don't need to know that magic." The Busty Demoness smiled happily as Agony poked her curled Horns curiously.

"But why?" The child persisted, Sonya soon kissing Agony's cheek as the ting of Sword meeting Gauntlet rung throughout the Village.

"Because Agony, before I became a Demon of the High Council, I was Russia's best Succumbus~" Sonya smiled, biting her finger lightly as she recalled the men and their spiritual energy that she'd drain by all kinds of Methods, some lost more than their virginity, others found her addicting and left their families to dedicate themselves to her. Agony soon jumped in her arms in realization.

"Oh! Oh! Succumbi have Sex to get more powerful, but because you don't do that anymore you use Dead Bones!" Agony realized as Sonya blushed a light pink, rubbing her right arm.

"Y-Yes that's right, well done Agony!" Sonya smiled as Agony bounced in Sonya's arms, The older Demoness's pale breasts wobbling in time to the bounces.

"Yay!" Agony smiled as two glanced outside to Pride dashing through Taur's flames, slashing at him, Taur's Armoured fist parrying the attack as Pride growled at his block.

"Pride! Don't you think that maybe your sister was lying?!" The Bull shouted as Pride looked to the Window, Agony sticking her tongue out before laughing as Pride and Taur sighed in relief.

"Well... I suppose you didn't get hard for my little Sister then." Pride said quietly as Taur held his furrow, rubbing it.

"Ya think?" He replied sarcastically as Pride looked to the Bull.

"Are you saying my Little sister is too good for you?" Pride asked in a daring tone, Taur growling.

"One day, I'm gonna punch you in the face and it's going to worth it." The Gauntlet wielder sighed, inside the House, the Blue Slime girl awoke once more as she saw Sonya holding Agony, Wiu smiled at the sight of the injured girl in Sonya's arms as she laid back down to recover her body temperature.
