Doren moved slowly as he helped Tsukiko along through the front door. As was the custom with girls those that were close by immediately came up in concern for their new friend.
"What happened?"
"Can be get you something?"
"Oh that looks like it hurts Tsukiko-Chan."

"Not much anymore, the medic fixed me up quite well. All I need right now is some sleep, so please don't concern yourselves with me. I'm quite fine." A lie, but just a little one. It still hurt but much less than it did before and it hurt even less when Tsukiko found that so many people were concerned about her, it made her feel welcome and warm. The same feeling she got when she was at home.
Kei ran to Tsukiko and looked up in shock. The same two arms that had held him all those times were shattered and he had hid. He was disgusted with himself.

Yuri appeared out of the crowd and picked Kei up to stroke his ears slowly. "You poor thing. Let's get you to bed then." she said draping an arm around Tsukikos shoulders and leading her up the stairs.
With the injured girl gone most of the girls left the area. They knew better than to question either of the twins about things like this, Doren was always too secretive and Soren had a horrible temper. Best to leave them be.
Doren followed the two girls and cat up the stairs slowly but turned down the opposite hall to a second set of stairs in the back.

Tsukiko sensed her sensei and his brother go the opposite direction but pushed it to the back of her mind as Yuri hurried her into the room that they now shared. She set Kei down on the bed before helping Tsukiko into a sleeping yukata and into bed, then doing the same for herself. "Good night." Tsukiko whispered as Kei clurred next to her check and she closed her eyes to sleep.

Doren sat down on his bed and sighed. Things were so complicated.
"You're getting too soft." Soren said emerging at his brothers shoulder.
The older sibling didn't look at his brother. "I know..." he said laying back. "There was a time when I was far crueler to those around us. The same with you. That girl is really interesting and I'm glad we found her before someone else did."
Both siblings didn't need to talk about it further tonight. They drifted off into an uneasy sleep of plagued dreams.

Tsukiko awoke slowly letting the blurriness of her senses seep into her pillow, when her head was clearer she sat up and noticed how Yuri and Kei were still fast asleep. She slowly stood up from the bed and walked over to the window, Tsukiko could still feel the fleating power of the moon just before the sun would rise. She moved away from the window and out into the hall as quietly as possible then slowly down the stairs where she heard voices. She took a seat near the bottom steps still out of sight and listened to the conversation that seemed to be about her.
"She's a strange one, that girl."
"Yeah I know... But she's very pretty."
"Abnormally so!"
"I don't like the way she's making Doren soft! Haven't you noticed?"
"Yes... But that's no reason to dislike her!"
"Doesn't matter! I don't! I think we should send her back to whatever village she came from! She doesn't belong here! She's an outcast! I bet she was thrown away by her own family and that's why she came here! To seduce her way into our home! And to steal our men! Doren-sama was mine in the first place! Hitomi or not! And now she's trying to take him, I'm going to embarrass her so much that Doren-sama would be digusted to look at her!"
Tsukiko was surprised at the malice in the girl's voice, Have I done something so horrible? She stood and quietly walked back up the stairs straightening her sleeping yukata as she did.

Tsukiko was surprised to sense the man that came out of no where but when he put a note in her hand she was at a loss. She quickly shuffled back into the room and poked Kei awake, Kei read this to me.
Kei yawned and stretched before he sleepily looked at the piece of paper and read it aloud, quickly waking up after finishing it. He looked up at Tsukiko just as she was struggling to pack her bag once again, her casts were getting in the way but she needed to do this before anything else. Kei folded the letter with his paw and grasped it in his mouth before making his way over to her, Are you sure child?
Yes, I need to do this. I need to get rid of this mark. Can you write a letter to Doren-sensei, Soren-san, and Yuri-chan? Tsukiko then finished her packing quickly and began the slow work on getting her self dressed in some descent clothes.
I'll try, little one.

Soren had actually been awake for several hours since they took turns sleeping. He was rather agitated about the girl that he had heard earlier but couldn't place the voice through the walls. He got up and walked silently down the stairs having noticed the other chakras in the place. He was an Elite Jounin now despite what he appeared, remaining unseen was a simple task.
"Morning." he said gruffly outside Yuri's room. "And how was your sleep?" Really he couldn't have cared but figured it was a good idea to check for his brothers sake.

Tsukiko jumped slightly when she sensed Soren outside of the room. She finished fixing her clothes and ran her hands through her hair quickly before making her way over to the door. Hurry Kei, I want to leave before Doren-sensei wakes up! She opened the door with a whince, her arm suddenly protesting to being turned, but just enough so that she was the only one seen and smiled.
"Good morning, Soren-san. I slept quite fine, my arms are still bothing me but I'm quite fine. Did you sleep well along with Doren-sensei?" she kept her smile on despite the pain in her arms.
I'm done child! So when ever he leaves we should head out!

"We never sleep well you little girl." Soren said cracking his neck. Why did he have to deal with the girl and the cat? "Tell me Tsukiko-San. Did you have a gentleman caller in your room recently?"

"T-to my room? N-no, not to my room. Why?" Tsukiko knew she wasn't telling the truth, but it wasn't a lie. She had come across him in the hallway. She had a feeling that Soren was in a bad mood so she took a step back putting some distance between her and the Sound-jounin. There was a noticable difference between Soren and his brother, she felt more comfortable with Doren than Soren.

Soren sighed. "You're a very attractive girl." he said tiredly. "I'd really have to torture you. It might ruin your looks." He cracked his neck again and when he opened his eyes there was a different look in them, not blood thirsty but calm, just like his brothers, almost like a storm was getting ready to crash beneath the surface. "I know a lie of omission when I hear it. My brother really likes you and that's why I haven't broken your fingers by now. Please mention it now so that he doesn't have to know."

Tsukiko felt the change in the jounin and she began to shake with pure fear, her legs could no longer hold her up and she sank to the ground. Leaning against the wall for support she let her hair fall in front of her face, shielding it. "Give him the letter, Kei. I didn't ask for him to come... he just showed up and I have no idea as to who he is."
Kei grasped the letter in his mouth and brought it over to Soren and dropped it at his feet before he climbed into his master's lap. He stared impassively at the Sound-nin as he read the letter. Kei could tell that Tsukiko was scared to death and if she were to become anymore scared Kiko would decide to come out and play.

Soren read the letter passively until he got to the end. Slowly the paper began to shake and the air itself seemed to spark with energy. "Him...." Soren breathed. His voice was quiet but filled with raw fury. The younger twin grasped his neck as if doing this would prevent his curse seal from releasing against his will. "Him!...." he said again though louder this time.
