Welcome to Gaia! ::

It looked to him that it was just a dream that he had fallen asleep and this was all in his mind but it wasnt, as Raiku looked down at his hand he could see that Senente was starting to stir, waking out from the nightmarish trance she was put in. "S...Sen, are you coming back?...come back to me hun I'm right here dont be scared." he says over and over again as her grip slowlystarted to get tighter and stronger.

It felt almost like hours though it was mere minutes as the two sat there and as Senente was coming to from the herbal she was given, he almost thought it wouldnt work but from the results he was seeing......it was. The children heared the comotion and looked from the kitchen to what was happening,"Daddy?....mommy,...is she waking up?....is she coming back? Raiku looks up to her with a smile and from that she knew it ment it was true......Senente was breaking her trance.

She thought about it for a moment and thinking back it was, if everyone else were there during the attack the damage could've been worse and she sighs thinking,"Well what else was I going to do there would be more people in the way also the panic?!....there was only a few seconds and I took them." Raiku smiles hugging her again as if she was gone for a long time but from his records she was and was simply glad things were going to be alright now. The children finish up their assignments then go into the livingroom where the others were glad to see Senente was awake and talking and she hugs them both,"Oh you guys i know i scared you well but at least we are all safe in the house and nothing can get us.

" She says however hiroshi looks at Everest for a moment when she said all of them,"Well almost all of us we still dont have Yuki and I'm starting to miss her badly." he says as tears formed in his eyes,watching him Senente picked him up to quiet him down a little."Its alright Hiro shes safe at the hospital and even better we can see her tomarrow after you guys finish school would that sound like something to do?" saying that she think looking at Raiku but he nods,"Dont worry about teaching the principal left you a messege to have both of us take some time off while you and Yuki recovered....I had him take her to the hospital that night and he knew what damage she have. However Takoyo called as well saying she somewhat alert and apparantly had many visitors today, some of the kids at school."

"Dont you have any idea what would've happened?!...if you went there the chances of you coming back would be zero or slim not to mention...they could.." tears start to form as Senente thought of the fact that the Atkaski would never let anyone who saw where their hideout was live to tell about it...Raiku would've been killed on the spot maybe a few seconds if he was lucky. He looks to her putting her in his arms for security,"I know.....but it doesnt matter if I didnt come to get you then who knows what could've happened, they would taken both of you to their hideout then I would follow and once I was there no matter what the situation.....I would've fought till I was bruised from head to toe to get my girls back thats how much i care for all of you, understand?" he says as she calms down looking to him.


After some time it grew later in the day as Raiku stayed with Senente as the children pretty much played and did things on their own knowing the situation and kept their distance from them, everything was a bit more quieter but the tense feeling of what happened was still in the air as both of them thought of the possible outcomes that might've happened with all of them coming to the conclusion that one or more of them might've lost their lives that night....however, they were still together. Couple hours pass and the children came in from outside and went strait upstairs to bed not saying a word while Raiku and Senente were still in the livingroom glad they wernt torn apart and the signs of no sleep was creeping on Raiku since that night and picks her up for bed as well, she was still a little shock from the situation but he laid her down holding her close letting her know that everything was alright and what happened was the past, gone from existence and the day coming to bring another fresh start. It became early morning as the sun rose into the window stirring Raiku awake as he stood up in bed he looks to see Senente still asleep and what made him smile was seeing her smiling in her sleep mostly thinking she was alright and things were going to be better.

With it being the weekend it was a good time to sleep in since when Senente went down it was dead quiet, noone apparently was awake being close to late afternoon. She goes in looking to the counters and sees a few good looking apples and sliced them up adding on a few more fruits to make a little fruit salad and went to the table looking down to feel something on her feet and from experience thought it was Yuki running by her but thats where she remembered she wasnt even on the island looking
down to see Skitty.

"Hey kitty kitty, your active today arnt you.....guess you can give me company for awhile till the rest of the house realizes its way past morning." she says as Skitty took a seat opposite to her wagging its tail happily as Senente ate not hearing it so quiet for sometime,everything was alright till a soft noise filled Senente's ears and she grew curious thinking someone left something on and was causing the noise however
she forgotten she was the only one up and gets up to investigate.

Looking in the livingroom she sees noone but the sound gets louder to the point she could tell it was soft music almost flutelike with the harmony and turns to see the door slightly opened, when she got outside carefully hearing the tune Senente figured out it sounded just like the lullaby little night star she sang to Yuki every night,"That lullaby,.....thats Yuki's favorite." she thinks and finally sees the sorce. Hiroshi was up in the tree playing on a silver almost with flute with several holes than a regular flute and she watches him as he played not knowing he had someone actually listening.

She jumps slightly hearing the sudden voice behind her and turns with a smile, Raiku saw she was up and about but didnt see her inside but heared the tune and saw her there,"Its true though you sing any song well no matter how hard the words...you always sing it right." She smiles with a slight tint of red in her face having hearing it so much before but hearing it from him made it even better, she looks back up to the tree pointing out to Raiku it was coming from Hiroshi who still continued to play it longer as if he wasnt part of the world but in his own letting each finger press a hole to tell a story.

He stops for a moment as he opens his eyes to take a glance at Senente and raiku looking up to him and he stops with a high note being studdered and looks down at them,Senente looks up with a laugh,"Its alright Hiro....we just never knew you were able to play, most likely something good for your age....its beautiful." He looks down at her red in the face,"Its just....I wish Yuki was with us now then alone in the hospital." Raiku thinks for a minute and gets an idea,"Why dont you come down, we can get Everest and go see her...that might cheer you up seeing shes alright." and he goes into the house to give Dr.Takoyo a call telling him they would be coming, after a few minutes he comes back a little confused and Senente grew a little concerned,"Well Rai whats wrong is Yuki doing alright?" "Thats the thing though I called Takoyo and he told me her big brother checked her out. Apparently he went to see her and from his view said she was tired of being alone and thought being with a relative was better, so she was checked out early this morning."

Off the island in Naruto's house he was getting things around while Yuki took a nap from the early morning pick up which in his opinion was the only best one, his phone rings loud and he turns hoping it didnt wake her up and picks it up, it was Senente."Naruto, I was told by Raiku that you were the one who took Yuki out this morning am I correct?" she sounded calm but slightly annoyed which he picked up quickly,"Yeah I was the one...besides she didnt really do much there so I thought some time with her big brother would be the trick to make her happy."

"Well you should of told one of us that you were going to do that, Raiku almost flipped when he was told she was checked out and almost thought a stranger took her.....we just dont want anything happening to her when shes in the condition she's in you know how we are." Naruto hears everything she had to say which was reasonable for a mother to worry about a child in the condition like that,"Oh dont worry she likes it being with me and it doesnt look like shes in pain better yet, Yuki plays alot with a small bell ball I have trying to get it on the string.

She doesnt mind the casts or anything but wonders why none of you had came to see her yet." he says to Senente. She thinks about it for a moment,"Well we were going to see her today thats why Raiku called her doctor till we got the news....we didnt forget her and now we know where she is and will come by later. Just dont overtired her though especially when she has many weeks of healing to go." They talk for a good fithteen minutes till they humg up, Naruto looks at his futon hearing Yuki stir awake."Morning you....thought you needed the nap so now we get to play longer." he says as Yuki looks at him upside down which got him laughing.

He finally gets things around looking back from time to time seeing Yuki still looking at him with her curious look as her ears twitch,"You know you really act like a little fox....kinda like my own little pet....but I bet you want to do something right now huh?...wanna play?" he says as she mews at him and he gets the idea and serched for her favorite toy. Somehow a small balll he had the size of a tennis ball with a little bell inside was the ideal thing for her to play with mainly with the noise, Naruto finally finds it and got an idea tying a string on one of the ends dangling it above her, Yuki looks up only for a moment and mews loud trying to catch it with her good hand swaying back and forth as the jingle of the bell got louder as they both laugh.

To him it was like playing with a pet fox but at the fact it was his little sister and with the way she was she couldnt help herself by acting the way she was however, it was better than laying in a bed alone with not much to do."Your mommy says not to tire you out too quick but....what Senente wont know wont hurt her you seem to be having a lot of fun I'll let you have all the fun you want here since at my house there aint no rules just fun and being yourself believe it!" They play for a couple hours till it got time for a late lunch and with Naruto it was the same as all his meals....ramen of course, he leaves the ball with Yuki as he makes them a couple cups and waits for the infamous three minutes till it was done, there was a challenge though with Yuki's arm bandaged up eating was a little hard so being the kind brother he was helped her out.

"Oh Naruto-kun dont be so mean to her...let her get the ball from time to time shes not a kitty you know." his face lights up red as he almost thought it wa Hinata behind him who somehow snuck in and surprise him from behind,"Ummm...um Hin.....Hinata! I...I didnt mean to be so...I was....we were....just playing! yeah thats right playing." Senente was eating the situation up hiding her laughing as Naruto being oblivious most of the time was actually believeing her imitation. Naruto was at the point of thinking he was in for it then till he turns seeing Senente's face and backpeddles away from her from fright banging into his dresser and a bunch of his laundry fall right on him,she bursts into laughing at the fact she got him and he went right into the trick....it was priceless for her. Hiroshi was behind her not thinking it was the most funniest thing to see till he saw Yuki on a pillow and it felt like his worries went away as he got closer to her, yuki looks at him smelling his sent and mewing happy and he smiles."I missed you alot I even learned your lulliby your mommy always sing to you...wanna hear it?"

"Um....sure Hiroshi, I'd lone to hear it since I never heared you sing before." he takes his flute out from his pocket putting the two pieces together as she watched him curious of what was going to be next, he thinks for a moment and blows the first note starting the lulliby. As he played Yuki listened clearly knowing it was her lulliby however the sound coming from hiroshi's flute had a odd effect on her as her moon glowed a faint purple as she slowly slipped in a trance hearing nothing but the song, it was like she was inside her own mind hearing the soothing tune with the feel of security around her like Senente was holding her at that particular moment....as if she was at hime in her room. He opens one eye for a moment noticing she was out of it but keeps going knowing it was making her happy.
