Bonjour mes auteurs de camarade! (That's french for 'hello my fellow
writers!') Anyway, I'm Nissa, the Author half of EmpressAuthor and this is
my first RW/YST fic ever. For those who didn't like the summary, let me try
again here. This story basically is my idea as to how it came to be that
people somehow got the feeling that sparks were flying either between
Nasuti (or Mia depending on which one you follow) and Ryo or Nasuti and
Touma, or ..or anyone else for that matter though I am still puzzled as to
where some of you got the idea of Shuten, Anubis, Rajura, Naaza, Shin, or
Shu (especially Shin and Shu). I also don't see where some of the
Nasuti/Kayura stories came from but I am not even going to go there. This
story will just focus on how Nasuti might possibly have any (romantic)
connections with any of the other troopers and will use the names form both
YST and RW. So sit back, enjoy, and please review! (Don't beg me to make it
a Nasuti/Mia with insert name of favorite character here. It's not
happening and I get annoyed when I see people do that to other writers.)
DISCLAIMER: Like Marie, I own none of these characters. If I did, I would solve the problem of who goes with whom once and for all so people would stop tearing each other's hair out over it.
AUTHOR'S WARNING: This story contains scenes in which Nasuti (Mia) is involved with Ryo, Touma (Rowen), Seiji (Sage), Shin (Cye), Shu (Kento), and a warlord or two. If you are so closed minded that you can't read such things without flaming the writer, I suggest you turn away now. If you are made of sterner stuff, by all means, help yourself!

Chapter 1: How Touma got invloved
The moon was in a playful mood. It flirtatiously hid itself behind the clouds, coyly granting a peek here and there before shining down in all her glory upon the dark earth. A young man with dark hair and unusual violet eyes watched tis hide and seek game as he waited under a sakura tree. He had been there for two hours and was beginning to grow worried. The person he was supposed to meet was late and that usually meant trouble.
"Seiji?" The young man turned, hand dropping to the sword at his side. The tension in his body slowly drianed out when he saw who hailed him. Standing behind him were two young men. One had wild black hair that fell in a tangle to his neck while the other was on add number with blonde hair, something not normal in Japan. To Seiji it didn't matter, they were two of his closet friends and he would have no others at his back in battle. The smile that had graced his lips soon faded when he saw that they were alone.
"You were discovered." It was a statement, flatly delivered. He should have known that extra guards would be posted. The young man with black hair shook his head.
"No, no discovery. We just had to deal with a slight change of plans. She sent us ahead to tell you she would be late. We would have gotten here sooner but the place is crawling with guards. She managed to talk two of them into letting her out once she deals with a minor rodent infestation." At his words, the other man grinned.
"Ah Seiji, you would have been proud of her. I'd tell you, but I feel that you should hear it from her lips. But I will tell you that it even shocked Ryo here. I thought for sure he would faint." Ryo growled at his friend.
"Careful, Touma," he said quietly. "We wouldn't want you to suddenly learn how to fly, would we?" Touma closed his mouth but still smiled at the memory. Seiji thanked them and let out the breath he hadn't realized he had been holding. She would be there soon, and then they would be together. Seiji smiled at the thought. Being with his love always brought out what his friends called his 'softer side'. A rustling in the bushes startled all three men this time. A giggle told them that it was nothing to be afraid of. More rustling was heard and then the bushes parted to reveal a young lady with long black hair.
"Such brave men to become tense when a mere woman approaches." She teased. Seiji's face became wreathed in new smiles at the sight of his beloved.
"But this is no mere woman, this is the warrior who took on the fowl demon rodent." His love laughed. She should have known Touma would let something slip about it. Though Seiji was teasing, she knew he was concerned.
"There is nothing to worry about, Seiji." She said. "His Lordship has decided that he would prefer a more docile wife." Her green eyes twinkled. "Oh Seiji, now he will have to listen to us. Now we can be married and live a happy life!" Touma and Ryo left to give the two lovers some privacy.
Seiji smiled down at her, his Nasuti, daughter to a very old and proud line. Her father wanted her to marry into a class higher than her own and saw the heir to the Date clan, a clan on the same level as their own, as someone beneath her. In a show of defiance, the girl had been cleverly finding ways to dissuade potential suitors. The first, one Lord Jirougorou(that would be Rajura/Dais for those who don't know), she had calmly told that his white hair brought to mind her grandfather and that she doubted he would be able to provide her father with grandchildren. When she made that comment to her father in public, the nobleman had promptly left. Nasuti had been forced to attend temple everyday to pray for a better demeanor. She had been the model of maidenhood until the second suitor had arrived. He had been Lord Naotoki (Naaza/Sekhmet). The poor man had not even had a chance as Nasuti would faint whenever he came within sight. He had finally stated that he preferred a woman with a bit more backbone. Nasuti displayed a remarkable talent for acting when the third suitor came to call. Lord Kujuurou (Anubis/Cale) was quietly and privately told that the Lady Yagyu suffered from an acute case of a very contagious disease that was passed most effectively through oral contact. It had helped much that she had been suffering a touch of the flu at the time and even had her father convinced that it was serious. Finally, following a speedy recovery, Seiji had been ready to approach her father when this latest noble had arrived. Lord Yagyu had had high hopes for Lord Toshitada (Shuten/Anubis). He had been polite, charming, ever the gentleman in her father's presence. Once her father had left his sight though, he had turned into a rutting rat as Nasuti had put it. That night he had passed his limit and Nasuti did what any girl would do in her place. She had flipped him over her back as he attempted to kiss her neck. That was what Touma had been referring to and now had her smiling as well.
"Oh Seiji, you should have seen his face. I think he's used to being popular with the ladies." Her teasing caused Seiji to look a bit uncomfortable and his friends to howl with laughter. It was well known, and also another reason Nasuti's father had turned down his offer, that the ladies of marriageable age had their sites set on Seiji. Lord Yagyu had said that with all of the mothers dying to claim him as their son-in-law, he was certain to receive an offer form the father of a girl of higher status than his Nasuti and that he did not wish his daughter to be made unhappy when the Date clan voiced those opinions.
"You may cushion the blows now, but even the softest pillow one day loses all of its feathers, and then all of the blows fall true. I do not want that for my Nasty." He had said. Seiji had nodded his consent, thanked him for allowing him to at least ask, then went outside to find a tear ridden Nasuti waiting for him. Hugging him tightly, she had whispered that she would make her father accept them or get sent to a monastery trying. Soon afterwards, she had begun her reign of terror on any suitor that darkened her door. Perhaps now, Seiji hugged Nasuti to him, perhaps now her father would listen.
"I knew it!" Nasuti gasped.
"Father!" Lord Yagyu stormed into the clearing. A tall man with a proud carriage, his eyes were said to fill his enemies with terror because they danced with green flames. Seiji had never doubted it, having seen those flames appear in his daughter's eyes on more than one occasion. Seeing it from her father first hand was a totally different story. The angry father grabbed his daughter's arm and yanked her to him.
"I try to improve your lot in this world and you dishonor me!" he shouted at her. Nasuti stood before him, chin raised. She loved Seiji and would feel no shame about that love. More noise coming from the bushes alerted her to the figure behind her father.
"Lord Toshitada" she hissed.
"A pleasure as always, Lady Yagyu." The red haired lord bowed before her. Nasuti wanted to gorge his eyes out.
