Welcome to Gaia! ::

Screaming pierced his ears as he tried to make the cut quick but long enough to help the breaking and less pain but he felt he was hurting her more this way then letting them come on their own, Yuki squirmed from the cutting but Raiku kept it up making a cut about an inch long and stopped unable to take anymore cries and look at the incision he just did.


Blood was streaming down her back as Raiku watched seeing what looked like wet black fur move in the cut and almost got sick watching but thinks,"No,.....I need to let her know its alright and be positive for her....she's the one in agonizing paing right now." Raiku runs out getting a few rags from the bathroom hearing her still cry out,"Its alright honey daddy will be right there settle down." he yells running back and folds a rag pressing hard in the cut to stop the bleeding but careful not too hard, Yuki cried louder which caused Raiku to tear up again.

"Plese honey I'm so sorry.....I had to do it to help the change." he says as he picked her up cradling her in his arms rocking to have her settle down. After a couple minutes she settled from a loud cry to soft whimpering and he lets out a sigh,"Settle down I know your hurting......how am I gonna tell your mother this....I'll just wait till after the show now as for you Naruto is on his way to take care of you so dont be scared....daddy will be right back before you know it. Raiku says as he gently laied her back on her belly wrapping her lightly placing the cloth on her back with some medical tape, looking at her another time he sighs and leaves.

Naruto reaches the island seeing it close remembering what Raiku told him over the phone,"Naruto......I think you know much about what Yuki is but now its serious again.....her ears and tail are coming in and I need you desprately just for this, dont touch her, dont shout and most of all dont be scared because she'll sense your fear......This time she needs you again for comfort."

He makes it to the house and rushes to Yuki's room hearing her cries,"Yuki I'm here dont cry." he says petting the back of her neck. As he tries to comfort her Yuki starts to whimper and go back to a loud cry but it was the loudest he ever heared and started to panic as he can see a bit of black appear from her back,"Oh man that must be her....and on her head....oh no their coming in."

All Naruto could do was watched as black fur broke onto Yuki's head and back spilling blood as they came in, it lasted about thirty seconds before she stopped laying down not even moving giving more concern and panic."Yuki?...Yuki! are you alright please open your eyes for me Yuki!....please little one." forgetting what Raiku said Naruto picked her up and held her close feeling she was breathing mainly drained from the pain was just exhausted,"Your ok now.....its over now." he says looking st her newly grown fox ears,"Well, looks like I can really call you foxy now....they look really pretty...a deep shade of black."

Naruto lays her back down watching her and the bloody kitsune parts and gets a bowl of water and a rag, carefully he sits by her gently wiping off the blood cleaning her ears first and then her tail as she flinches from the water but most of the time she wasnt controlling the flichings not realizing she had new additions to her body.

An hour go by as Naruto watched her close as her ears twitched when he got his fingers just close enough but stops as she whimpers, he reads the instructions Raiku left and kept a close eye on her watching for her fever but was a little afraid as he looks at where Raiku tore and where they tore on their own seeing there was something wrong with the cut. Naruto thinks about it and brushes the idea off and watched her lay down whimpering and feeling pain with her new attachments petting her hair letting her know he was still there.

Senente was getting a little confused till the name Yuki slipped out of his mouth and then it was her turn to ask questions,"I know, you said she wasnt feeling good so I thought she just had a cold or something." she says but Raiku sighs again and she had a look of concern,"Its not that shes sick but in pain....Sen I read the book on the floor about kitsunes getting the ears and tail and the thing is that they grown in the body and then break through the skin....Yuki had a large bruise on her back and I counld tell she had two on her head but it was when i checked on her again it was getting bigger.....Yuki's ears and tail are coming in.


Senente didnt know what to say but knew the girls were like that but something that disturbing happening was actually happening to Yuki and it was now,"Well what do we do? she must be hurting a lot right now and yt I'm here." Raiku hugs her feeling her fear,"I....I cut her with my kunai.....to help them come in easier." she gasped and pulled away,"Raiku! how could you! you have any idea what would happen? she migh catch an infection if untreated...what were you thinking!.....yet....you were just trying to help I'm sorry." she says coming back and had him finish what he had to say from the book to what he saw happen to fill in the blanks. Senente had a good idea of what was going on,"So.....she has her kitsune parts.....thats new how is she now?" "I'm not sure but I left Naruto to take care of her till the show ended...trust me I know you think of him of not being a good babysitter but when he heared what was happening he knew it was serious so I trust him." Raiku says.


After the show everyone headed home Senente a little scared and curious of what she was going to see when she got back so did Everest,"Mommy is Yuki really really sick again?" she nods to her but she knew Everest knew what was happening so she wanst too worried about it, Raiku opens the door and holds Everest,"Why dont we just let mommy go up then you can later....mommy needs to look at your sister." he says watching her run up the stairs yelling Yukis name before opening the door though Naruto hushes her fast pausing Senente in her tracks by the doorway,"Naruto....is she...she gonna be alright?" she asked looking to Yuki's bed and the blood soaked blacket nearly panicking but as she looked at Naruto in Yuki's chair she sees him holding a bundle with slight wimpering knowing it was Yuki, carefully he unwrapped her head revealing the cleaned black fox ears twitching slightly from the exposure. "Shes fine but still in pain...I think the cut might be infected from Raiku's kunai but I;m not too sure....well this is what was hurting her this while time." Naruto says as he looks up to Senente whos face grew scared but he asures her and rocks Yuki some more as she wimpered in her sleep.

"Well you may say that now but I think you should continue with the schedule and finish up the bottle." Raiku protest and looks at her but she started to have a fit with him,"Seriously I dont need them much, the pain is gone and look at it the redness is starting to go away as well.....I dont think i need them anymore you know how I am with those knock offs." Senente barks at him. As the both of them took turns with comments and counter attacks Raiku know he wasnt going to win this and let Senente go a night without her medication, just before he walked out he looks at her,"You know....your stubborn at times but thats why I love ya so much....have a good night."

Senente smiles and lays on her pillow letting herself fall asleep on her own than be drugged to sleep. Raiku quietly goes into Yuki's room careful not to wake her as he watched her, true her appearance was a shock then what Naruto said on the phone but in his eyes she was still his little girl and nothing was going to change that....he loved her too much to let a change like animal parts make her not be loved by him. Gently Raiku picks her up and carries her to his room laying her on his bed very careful not to let her move in the bundle, he smiles seeing Yuki sleep quietly and climbs into bed as well. "Such cute little ears....a beautiful shade of black just like your hair....too cute." he says tracing around her ears smiling as they twitched to his touch and watches her as he himself falls asleep.

He thinks and didnt have a clue what to say it was but he wasnt ready to what Senente had to say about it,"Raiku....you know the herbal we give Yuki?....to ease her lust?" "Yeah what about it?" Senente stddered at first but she knew she had to say it,"Well you see.....these dots and her vials....I've been slipping blood into the mixture but just a few drops because I knew a few herbs an never become and alternate to blood....there no such substitiue....thats why she feels better after a few minutes because I give her the thing we try to keep her away."

Raiku was shock for a little but he wasnt mad nor disappointed with her,"Sen I didnt know......well at least my confession wont be so ackward." Senente looks at him confused,"What do you mean Rai.....your hiding something too?" she ask but he stays silent. Once he sighs Raiku shows her his wrist revealing two pink dots in his skin,"You see your not the only guilty one.....I've been secretly giving her my blood when I tuck her in while your in Everest's room, that way you dont see." he says thinking now that both of them were hiding something and then confessed the guilt wasnt as bad to the two......they both did the same thing.


Senente grabs hold of Raiku and embraces him feeling secure and not so sorry knowing she wasnt the only one and Raiku sighs,"Well then.....I think for now on we can still do this but switch from time to time, that way you dont ruin your fingers and I wont mess up my wrist.....if this is the only way we'll do it that way." he says and turns back to Yuki heavy in sleep,"Well at least on the bright side she'll be up later on even though she'll be prowling.....that'll be fun." he says thinking about but normally the two of them can be up awhile so one could watch her when its dark for awhile and Raiku smiles,"You know, I think it would be intresting to see her at night.....it might be cute to see her crawl around on the ceiling with those big red eyes of hers.....that might be intresting."

There wasnt much to be explain since the evidence was literally on the floor but thats wasnt going to be easy to explain in a better way, they get up a little red in the face,"Senente started it." Raiku says pointing at her and she shoves him,"We were just playing a game....he chased me I ran and he tripped on me." she says but Saskuke was nodding his head. "And to think you two would be down to games the girls play, speaking of which is Yuki alright? Naruto told me she was sick again." at the point he said that Senente worried for a moment he said the whole truth then the lie but played along,"Yeah shes a bit better shes still asleep now....I didnt want her to miss my performance but Raiku told me she couldnt be moved a lot but shes doing fine." she says and goes to the stairs,"I'll see if Everest is up yet, its not healthy for her to sleep so much." Raiku shouts from the kitchen.


"Well just dont wake Yuki she needs to sleep and wake up on her own time." "I know how to be quiet you on the other hand....not so much." she says from the stairs. A couple moment later Senente comes down carrying Everest rubbing her eyes being woken up,"I know I know but you cant always sleep in too long you start school soon and besides I dont need you waking your sister." she says putting her down and goes back up into Raiku's room going in to check on Yuki. Bundled in the blanket she was buried sleeping and breathing calmly unaware of her surroundings, Senente smiles petting her ears moving down to her tail never really knowing how soft they were and gently picked her up in the bundle carrying her in the hallway.


"For someone like you your a heavy little sleeper....just like your father maybe thats where you get it from." She knew both her and Raiku couldnt be running up the stairs constantly to check on her so she bundled her tighter in the blanket hiding her inside and carfully came down with her as she slept, Raiku sees her,"She still asleep?" "Yeah but I thought it was best to have her down here so we can check on her from downstairs then climbing the stairs.....besides shes quite a heavey sleeper nothing can really wake her. Raiku nods in agreement,"Yeah probably easier too......she'll wake soon hopefully we'll just have to hear her in the blanket and make sure shes comfortable." She goes into the living room and settles her on a chair close to the doorway to the kitchen but just far off to let her sleep, poking her hand inside Senente pets Yuki's head feeling her flinch a little and a ear twitch to the touch and she smiles letting her sleep.

"Just relax Sen, I already saw him go up and told him not to touch her because her skin was sensitive and with that I said to also not move her or anything....he knows not to do anything to Yuki dont worry." with that she sighs and lays back on the sand,"Good call Rai...you know how to word things right." Raiku looks at her and thinks about the sun was directly out and thought of her skin burning,"You know you should be wearing sunscreen you do have a tendency to burn pretty easily." she looks up at him annoyed,"Would you settle the sun is barely on me so theres no need for it...I'll be fine." and lays back down letting the sun hit her."Its a holiday just relax......it wont hurt."


Raiku admits defeat and goes with the others watching Sakura play with Everest in the water splashing eachother while Naruto was up by the docks acting all mighty and yelling down to them,"Hey guys! watch me dive straight in with no worry." "Oh please once you hit that water you'll flinch" Sakura yells throwing the beach ball at him hard hitting its target straight as he fell hitting his back herd on the water's surface having everyone laughing as he gets back up redder than a lobster from the impact. Saskuke looks around for the crying and finds Latias looking up to him as he comes up to her petting her nose,"Hey you I just want to check on Yuki, Senente wanted me to." she nods and nudges to the bushes where he heared the muffled crying finding Yuki wrapped in the blanket, he kneels down and tries to figure out how to stop her crying but he remembers what Raiku told him of not touching her or anything but how could he comfort her if he couldnt touch her.



"This isnt right.....Yuki's crying and she doesnt know someone is here....a little touch wouldnt hurt shes sick." Carefully he dips his hand into the blanket reveiling Yuki's face filled with tears and cries louder, unbehonest to Saskuke her ear was being seen but from his view he mistaked it for part of her ponytail and rocks the bundle,"There there your alright your outside and mommy and daddy arnt too far....theres no need to cry anymore." Slowly Yuki started to calm down and flinches from his touch quieting down, once she stopped and relaxed he gets up petting Latias going back down.

"Senente! what happened? your foot is all cut up did something happened?" he asked as he saw a gash in her foot bleeding out." she looks at him and wrapped her arms on him scared and shaking slightly. "I was taken by Dragonair and it dropped me...and...and i couldnt get up to the surface and I thought I was gonna drown.....Rai....I....I was so scared for my life." Raiku was surprised at what he heared and hugged her close thinking about what almost happened to Yuki a few weeks cak. "Its alright.....your safe and thats all that counts right now....Sen dont cry everything is fine." he looks above her and sees the others run towards them to see what happened and they too were worried when he said what almost happened.


"Well at least your safe now but lets get that cut taken cared of thats looks deep." Sakura says taking Senente's hand up to the dock and takes out a first aid kit from the house, carefully Sakura took a look and thought sone iodine would wourk the best and dabs lightly even with Senente flinching she was able to but it on and bandage it up. After a few minutes the girls come down,"She'll be alright it wasnt as bad as I thought so it should close up in a couple days." Sakura says to Raiku nodding to her, while everyone went back to the beach noone sees Everest scurry away from the other's eyes and looked around hearing Yuki muffling in the blanket and grew curious, she knew Yuki was developing her kitsune parts but she was a little curious from what she read and wanted to see for hersilf.



She sees Latias asleep and sees Yuki's blanket bundle slightly moving and opens it gently reveiling Yuki's head and sees the ears for the first time,"Yuki?....it actually happened they....they look so odd." Everest says but Yuki barely lifted her head knowing it was Everest but she was too tired to react much but nudges her hand. Both the girls look at eachother and Everest knew Yuki wasnt feeling well from the transformation but knew Yuki was lonely even being sick so she stayed with her but Yuki could barely keep her eyes open. Carefully Everest touched Yuki's ear and smiles as it twitche


d and runs her finger around where they broke feeling dried blood on the edges stopping as she fliched but Everest was intriged to Yuki's ears and stayed with her getting bored of the beach. For her it was odd to see Yuki like this a tiny girl in a bunch of blanket barly able to lift her head and stay awake was able to twitch her ears from a touch."Wow Yuki....these are kinda cool but I never knew you would get them like that.....I feel bad your not feeling well." she hears Yuki cry weakly but couldnt really do much but stay and telling her she was there

Raiku was relieved to hear him say that and almost worried that he would have to explain a lot more but seeing he was being watched as he spoke the secret came out on its own, he looks up to Saskuke,"I'm glad you feel that way, for a moment when they first came here....I almost thought Senente was getting in too much and would be having to do more things sacrificing a lot, but after some time with them and getting more information from a few books we worked together to make it work and look at us now, were a Hatchi family with two beautifuls girls though there not human they are still beautiful to us....thanks for accepting them I almost thought they wouldt make it here but they are." Saskuke smiles looking at Yuki as she moved slightly in the blanket.


"Yeah I bet once the blood is cleaned off completely she wont be as bad and feel better then." he says watching her ears twitch from the breeze and covers her back up with the blanket smiling seeing her snuggle inside,"Just like a little fox....kinda cute." Raiku and Everest come back to the beach and Everest goes by the shore running after the waves laughing, he smiles seeing her laugh wishing Yuki wa well enough to come out and join but knew once she was better she would next time,"As soon as shes better I'll let her come out here...she would love the waves....just as soon as she gets well enough." he thinks but turns seeing Naruto snickering about something. "Something funny there?....let me in on the humor." he stops for a moment to see Raiku staring at him,"Well lets just say.....Senente looks a little red but she aint angry." Raiku was puzzled then but never really got his puns and went to see what he was talking about, he sees Senente and got what Naruto ment...she was red from the sun and held a snicker coming up to her,"Um Sen.....remember what I said about sunscreen?...you didnt take my advice didnt you and now your burnt."
