Scene 6 ****************************************** Satjiyu's Office

* Satjiyu's gathered henchmen all groan when Yusuke and Kurama stop. Honshin turns to
look at his boss.

Honshin- What a let down!
Satjiyu- On the contrary, Honshin... I was quite entertained.
Baracu- But they stopped.
Satjiyu- No, they've just started... You see, the redhead is really a Kitsune... a fox
demon... The Toushin Mazoku is following his instincts very well.
Honshin- Explain, Boss.

* Satjiyu rolls his eyes and waves a hand.

Satjiyu- Turn on the lights, T'Sardo.

* The lanky lizard demon quickly obeys.

Satjiyu- I've been breeding demons for decades... I bred most of you... There's very
few species that I haven't dealt with. So I know what I'm doing.
Honshin- Okay... Fill us in.
Satjiyu- I'll let those two continue to dance for a couple more days before I introduce
the hot juice to them... Meanwhile, I've got my toy back.

* Satjiyu looks toward the screen again grinning as he watches Hiei pace.

Honshin- Ah, you mean that short mutt?

* Satjiyu nods. He then glances at Honshin.

Satjiyu- Don't tell me you don't remember him... Of course he was a lot less powerful
back then.
Honshin- Yeah, I remember... The little mutt was only good for one thing...

* Honshin looks back toward the screen.

Honshin- But that kitsune... Now there's one that I could...

* Satjiyu jackslaps his second.

Satjiyu- Do you have any idea how powerful the offspring of "that mutt" and the
Mazoku will be??
Baracu- Fire mixes good with any powerful species... How could you have let him get away from you so easily??
Satjiyu- I lost him because I was foolishly reveling in the fact that he'd killed that
moronic brother of mine... But I recognized Hiei as soon as I seen him again at that farce of a tournament*** a couple years ago... He still carries my mark I put on him.
Honshin- Yeah, well all of your sluts carry that mark.

* Honshin and a couple of the others run their hands over their own white starbursts.

T'Sardo- (Hisses) I carry mine with great pride, Master.

* Honshin looks at the lizard then shoves him off his chair with a foot.

Honshin- (Mumbled) D--- liar.
Satjiyu- Shut up before I slam the both of you!! It's in our favor that the little slut was too young to realize that I controlled him with more than just that collar...
Unfortunately for Majou, I never shared my secret abilities with him, either. He was too busy worried about how much money he could keep from me!

* The tiger focuses on his group again, snapping out of his nostalgia.

Satjiyu- Nor will I share it with any of you idiots!! Not that it would matter. The
trigger word is only activated by my own voice...

* Satjiyu looks back toward the screen.

Satjiyu- Ahhh, you guys have no idea how well I trained that little b----... How talented he could be when he was... ummm... I can hardly wait until morning.

* Satjiyu turns back to the small group and waves his hands.

Satjiyu- Everyone out now... I need to rest up for my big day tomorrow... And all of
you stay out of that room!

* The demons all head for the door chatting with each other.

Satjiyu- Honshin.

* His assistant returns to face him.

Honshin- Boss?

* Satjiyu hands him a piece of paper.

Satjiyu- I will need you to get me some nice quantities of these from the warehouse.
Bring them to me first thing in the morning.

* Honshin looks at the paper.

Honshin- Euphoria and... Wild Makai Foxbane?
Satjiyu- Yes, you'll see come tomorrow. Now scat.
Honshin- (Nods) I'll get right on it, Boss.

* The wolf demon leaves quickly. Satjiyu turns to look toward the screen again. Hiei
is staring straight toward the camera.

Satjiyu- Yes... You know I'm watching you, Shiyounin... And it burns you, don't it?

* Satjiyu leans back in the chair chuckling confidently.
