Yura's Point Of View....

As I was being dried off, Nura gave me something. "What is this?" I asked him in confusion. "Yuki, gave it to me as she dropped it off. Since your family will need you as soon as possible." He said to me. "Go ahead and open it up." He said to me with a shrug. I have to admit that I like Nura better as a human. He's much more nicer than his Yokai form. 'I wonder what this is. It is pretty light.' I thought to myself. "Okay then." I said as I began to slowly open the box. As I uncovered it, my eyes widened in shock and amazement. 'This is expensive.' I thought to myself as my eyes were widened and my mouth agape. "You keep that up, a bug is going to fly there." Nura said to me. I glared at him and closed my mouth as I picked it up. "What is it anyways?" He asked me. "It's a Bullet Train ticket and some yen to buy me food and drinks." I said to him as I showed it to him. There was about a million yen in total. This was definitely a lot and to think she would give this to me just because my Family needed me as soon as possible. "You might as well stay here for tonight since it's closer to the train station. You can easily wake up and make it on time for your ride." He said to me. "You also still need time to heal as well." A voice called out to me. "Kubinashi, nice to see you." Nura said as he took notice of the Yokai. "Thank you, Young Master Rikuo." He said to him. "Is Yuki still here or no?" Rikuo said as he asked him. "No, she left already. She just came to drop those off and to tell me about the thing on my wrist." He said to him. "I see. Did she say anything about where she was going to go?" Nura asked him. 'Even as a Yokai, he seems to care about her a lot.' I thought to myself as I looked down. He seemed really genuine about her well-being. "She said that she's going to be arriving to Kyoto by tonight. She has a score to settle with the Kyoto Yokai." He said to him. "I see but it does sound like her. She wants to save as many humans as she can." Nura said with a smile on his face. It was actually the first to see him smile like that in his Yokai form. 'I should be getting to somewhere else.' I thought to myself. "Please excuse me." I said to them as I bowed and left. I didn't want to feel as though I was intruding. They didn't seem to mind or stop me though. 'I wonder, who is that woman? Who is she to Nura? Why is she helping me? What kind of grudge does she have against Kyoto Yokai.' I thought as I asked myself while I continued to walk. She also gave me a lot of money as well to make sure I'm fed. She really is a nice person and Onmyoji. But I don't know why she's even helping Yokais. I know that not all Yokai are bad and not all are good but what made her trust Nura so easily. She also seemed to know him well enough. I know that's she's not his relative because he didn't have any. But there's no denying that their bond is almost like one. However since we are going to the same place, I can always ask her these questions when I meet her again. I just hope that she'll answer my questions but I think she will. She seems like a nice and kind person. She was even generous enough to but me a ticket and lend me some money for food and drinks. I should also try and find a way to repay her back for all that she's done for me as well. As I was walking, I walked into Oikawa again. "Your room is this way." She said to me as she began to lead me down to another hall. I decided to just trust her for now since I don't think they would do anything. Although, I never got why they helped humans out so much. I never met any Yokais that were like that. It's a bit frustrating but relaxing at the same time. I started to wonder if it was possible for humans and Yokais to coexist with each other. I know that they can since Nura is an example. His mother is a human while his Father was half. So it shows that humans and Yokais could fall in love with each other. It just goes to show that not all Yokais are the same and if she could place her trust in the Nura Clan then I guess I could try to as well. But there was always something bugging me though. She was an Onmyoji but she wasn't part of the Kekkain Clan or I would have seen her. The only Clan who also existed, died almost four hundred years ago. None of their blood survived during the wipeout either. Not only that but she could summon multiple Shikigamis at the same time. As I laid down, I couldn't help but think about everything that's been going on though. It was difficult to comprehend the situation and not only that but she was willing to help me. Her name is still unknown to all of us well at least get last name that is. If I knew it then it would be more easier to tell who she is and how she's able to do all of that. There was also the thing about her power as well. She was able to heal Nura's wounds as a golden glow surrounded her hands. It showed that she had a lot of spiritual energy and she could very well be a target as well for the Yokais. I don't see the reasoning behind her going to such a dangerous place on her own. I can't even think of what she hopes to gain from it. It would be like walking in front of a gun. She would be like a walking target for all of them. "She must not really care about what happens to herself." I said to myself as I thought about it. 'Not only that but she's also really strong as well.' I thought as I closed my eyes. I decided to shake the thought away and closed my eyes. After a while more, I fell into a deep slumber.
