Hitoshi was able to brainwash Tonmaru with his Magic! 

"Throw monkey off your back and finish him off!" He commanded the huge warthog demon. 

Tonmaru groaned and he really did throw Saruhiko off of his back. The monkey-like demon boy dropped onto the ground and he would have been crushed to death by the huge demon if he did not have monkey-like agility to outrun the warthog demon's stomps. Tonmaru was using full force in his brainwashed state and nothing was breaking him from it. 

"Oi! You fucking pig, what the heck?! Stop-" 

Tonmaru stomped on him! However! The monkey demon dug a hole at a lightning speed into the ground before the impact landed and he dug his way out somehow! 

"Wake up already!" He summoned a long red staff and he was about to hit his comrade on the head with it but he was kicked from the chin as Yuuki rose from the ground! He did a flip back and he looked at Yuuki and then at her hands. "Aura? You're a demon too! What is a demon doing on the side of humans?!" 

"I am a demon. I swear no loyalty to no one; whoever makes a contract with me, it's who I will be loyal to!" 

"You!" Saruhiko pointed his weapon at Yuuki, "Stretch, Nyoibo!" He commanded his staff to become longer and the staff stretched in length in a matter of seconds! The speed of it was so quick that Yuuki was hit in the stomach! 

"Guh...!" It was painful but Yuuki focused her aura to her feet and her stomach in order to stop herself from flying off and to not let the red staff hurt her any further! Yuuki grabbed the red staff and she started to channel her own aura into the staff! "Channel!" Any Magic User could channel their own Magic into weapons but when she does it, she could make her aura hurt the person touching what she's channeling her aura into! 

"Ouch! You bitch...!" Saruhiko let go of his own weapon because of the searing sensation channeling into his weapon! 'It freaking hurts! It's like being burnt in a hellish fire! What the hell is up with this demon-?!' Saruhiko didn't have much time to think about anything because a shadow covered his body. He looked over his shoulder and he saw Tonmaru still trying to stomp him! 'I need to do something about that pig and that guy's brainwashing!' He then realized something! Why doesn't he just do the same thing as Yuuki? Channel his own aura into his comrade and break him free from the brainwashing?! He avoided the single stampede and he tried to touch his gigantic demon comrade on the leg! 

'Now...!' Hitoshi's not staying hidden in the trees for the fun of it! He's been waiting for the monkey to figure out he could perform channeling and cancel out his brainwashing! He used his capture weapon and he caught the monkey! Hitoshi jumped down from the tree and he pulled at the weapon, forcing Saruhiko into the air and hitting his head against a tree really harshly! 

"Gah...!" Saruhiko gasped in pain and he appeared passed out when he just dangled there like that. 

"Hmph. That's the end of it." 

Yuuki faced the warthog demon who was still under Hitoshi's brainwashing. She looked at the demon with cold blue eyes. She made her claws very sharp and she plunged them into the back of the neck when she jumped on top of his back. She grinned like a murderous maniac and she started to tear the demon's huge head apart. 

Hitoshi just stood there and watch; he knew they had to kill the floor boss in order to advance, but the way she was killing the demon...it's so cruel. 

The horrifying part in all this was Tonmaru had a blank look on his face as he was being torn apart by Yuuki. He did not break the brainwashing because then he would have to hear the sound of agonizing death. 

With all of her strength, Yuuki pulled the head of the demon warthog out. The spine was still intact. Yuuki threw the head to the ground and she stood on the demon's back as it slumped forward and fall. 

"Huh...?" Tonmaru regained his consciousness. "Huh...? Wha...why is my body disintegrating? Is this my...head...?" It took the gigantic demon 3 whole minutes for it to realize he had been defeated by Yuuki. "But you are a demon yourself!" 

Yuuki looked at the warthog demon and she merely smiled. 

Tonmaru gasped and he tried his very best to move but he could not move. "You...! Do you know what you have done?! I am part of the Zodiac! I am one of God's chosen ones! For you to do this to me...!" 

Yuuki grinned at the demon. Upon seeing that grin, Tonmaru realized who Yuuki was. 

"You...! Wha- you-! This isn't part of the deal-" 

Yuuki jumped from the disintegrating back to stomp onto the head! 

"Zodiac, my ass! Don't give yourself such powerful names, it makes you look weak~." 

"Yuuki..." Hitoshi wondered what this feeling was; it was like seeing something even more demonic than a demon! Was this Yuuki? 

"You really think I will be on your side after taking this power? I only needed some assistance...I never said I will be affiliated with you guys from the very start." 

Hitoshi looked at his capture weapon to see Saruhiko was missing. Where did he go?! 'Shit!' "Yuuki, we need to get out of here!" 

Yuuki did not respond. She just kept stomping on the head that was taking a very long time to disintegrate. 

"I only have my own goal. That's the only reason why I came back. I didn't come back to join your little club. I came back to set things right!" 

"Yuuki!" 'It's not working. She's not responding to me...!' Hitoshi tried again and again, calling her name, shouting her name, crying out her name...his Magic was not working on her. He couldn't snap Yuuki out of the uncontrollable rage. "Yuuki..." He helplessly whispered her name as he continued to watch her cruelly stomp on the now mushed mess on the ground.

Why won't the whole damn thing disintegrate already?! Let it disappear! Why won't it disappear already?! 

"Yuuki!" 

"Shut the fuck up already! Yuuki, Yuuki, Yuuki! Fuck! You're annoying!" 

Katsuki and Neito made the fire already, it didn't take much effort at all. They're hungry and they came to check on Hitoshi and Yuuki, who were taking a long time. 

"Hitoshi, you two..." Neito looked at the slowly disintegrating body of what was supposed to be the warthog demon. Did Hitoshi and Yuuki defeat the floor boss of this floor?! "What is Yuuki doing?" When he saw the gruesome looking mess splattered messily under Yuuki's feet, he felt the urge to throw up. 

"Oi! You stupid wolf! What the hell is taking you so damn long?!" Katsuki walked over to her and he pushed her away from the mess, "What the fuck are you doing?!" 

"Move!" Yuuki was adamant about stomping the demon's head some more. She wanted to crush it some more even if it's in the middle of disappearing. "I said move!" 

"You dare to tell me what to do, you stupid wolf?! He turned her around and he slapped the back of her head!" 

"Hya!" 

"You don't tell me what to do! I am your Master! You don't fucking tell me what to do! I am telling you to stop right now! DO YOU FUCKING GET IT?!" He said while grabbing hold of the collar of her shirt. 

Yuuki calmed down and she stopped what she was trying to do. "...sorry." 

"You better be! I don't want this sort of shit to happen again!" 

"...but I am a demon. It's in my nature." 

"You're Yuuki before you are a goddamn demon, you fucking idiot." 

Yuuki looked at Katsuki with disbelief. She? Yuuki before she's a demon? 

"I am hungry. I see you can't even do your fucking work without me! You're hopeless! Fuck off back to camp! I'll show you how to fucking fish!" 

She was about to say something but Hitoshi touched her shoulder gently, "Come on, let's go." 

"...yeah." 

...

After eating a lot of fish that Katsuki and Neito caught, they were all sleeping inside of a wooden cabin Eijirou and Tetsutetsu made. 

However, Yuuki couldn't sleep. She couldn't sleep because she was thinking about killing the demon from today. She couldn't control herself at that very moment...it felt so out of character to the eyes of others. 

"Huh?" She could see Hitoshi sitting on top of a rock, "Hitoshi." 

"Yuuki..." 

It seemed like the two of them were unable to sleep. And they both knew it was because of the warthog demon but neither of them said anything about it. 

Yuuki leaned against the rock he sat on, her back was against it. She looked down at the sand under her feet. She gently kicked it a few times before she felt a little bored. "Hitoshi, I'm sorry about scaring you." 

"I wasn't scared by you. You're not the reason I can't sleep. I was thinking what the wild boar called himself." 

"A Zodiac..." 

"I'm just wondering if there's any more of them in this very tower. The ones we fought weren't a Zodiac and they're strong in their own rights. I'm just thinking about if my Magic has what it takes to hold a demon back. That monkey boy escaped and he will probably tell everyone else about my ability. I'll probably be useless from this point on." 

"Hitoshi..." 

"You've worked my Magic's weakness out easily. They can do the same. And it's because you know my Magic's weakness that you did not let me use it on you." 

"That's not-" 

"I think you did want to be stopped. But you don't want me to stop you, you want Katsuki to stop you within your rage." 

"I wanted Master to stop me...?" 

Hitoshi jumped down from the rock, he walked up to her and he patted her on the head, "Silly girl, you don't even realize you like your Master enough to want him to stop you when you are at your worst?" 

Yuuki looked at him, visibly lost by his words. She wanted Katsuki to stop her? Really? Was that what's going through her head at the time? Truth was, she DID stop when Katsuki came. 'I heard no one's voice but Master's...' 

Hitoshi smiled gently and he removed his hand from her before leaving, "You're a demon, but something tells me that you're more human than a demon." He decided to turn in for the night, "Don't stay up too long, Yuuki."

Yuuki was now alone. She's thinking about Hitoshi's words about her thinking about Katsuki when she was in a raging state. 

Yuuki looked into the water of the lake and she could see her face and her hair in it. She kicked some sand in it, making the water ripple. 

"Master and I can never...because he is my-" 

And the wind blew gently, making the trees swish in the wind...
