Welcome to Gaia! ::

He had a reaslly bad feeling go through his spine as the screams grew louder and more agonizing with each second that past,"My little girl.....this solar eclispe is going to bring out the side of her we try so hard to keep hidden and it'll be just like before with fear of a muderer causing chaos in Skyline." Yuki was trying to get into the man's neck but he scrams trying to get her off and with a thrust get up tossing her to the ground and once she saw she wasnt a match with his size scurried off into the treeline deep in the shadow, he bleeds badly from her scratches moaning in pain trying to escape feeling she would come back for a second ambush.

Raiku finally gets near the woods and stops in his tracks as the screams stopped worrying more it was too late and that she killed again till his foot catches on something and trips. Looking closer it was the botten of a shoe and he saw a man holding his neck and gets to him realizing he was still alive after Yuki's attack."Sir what happened?! you need medical attention badly what did this to you?" he says to the man but as he looked up at Raiku his face was pale with fear,"A demon!.....a demon in the shape of a child...I was around and heared the cries of a little girl looking like she could barely walk on her own with a broken leg and arm,crying in the woods all by herself.I thought I would see if she was lost from her parents but as I grew closer I..I heared nothing but a piercing hiss and she grabbed onto me biting at my neck." Raiku couldnt believe what he was saying as he dressed his slash.

"The child was no human she scratched at me with long black claws and fangs almost like a vampire and eye...oh the eyes glowed blood red.....that was a demon and I got up tossing her off me and it ran off. This place has the killer again from before a demon!" he says and takes off in a panic leaving Raiku in disbelif.Once the man was out of sight he serched around where he said she took off and looked to the trees,"Honey....sweetie I know you are in your stage but its just daddy...please come out so I can see you." he looks hearing a branch move and looked up,on the branch Yuki was glaring at him like a wild fox her body painted in the man's blood and her casts spilling out her own blood with her arm at the verge of almost tearing but somehow with her in the vampuric state she couldnt feel the pain.


"No....Yuki we need to get you home your arm...its..its almost half off we need to get help for you please I beg of you honey come to daddy." ears were in Raiku's eyes as she continued to stare at him hissing which made him grow more upset she wasnt reconizing him. She just watches him as he did with her thinking what exactly happened to his little girl, the one he remembered looking at him with her normal bright red eyes but in her place was the one thing she truely was from her home realm......a shadow kitsune craving blood she lacked for a long time from Senente's herbal treatments.He thinks and tries to figure out why she hasnt attacked him but only stares maybe something in her was telling her not to and Raiku was no harm or the fact her mangled arm was causing her to not pick another fight.

The walk into town felt almost like miles as his wrist bled slow but the effects of the loss was slowing him down and his vision was starting to blur."Just a few more blocks and we'll get you fixed up and everything will go back to normal...you'll see." Ayume was at her desk checking the agenda for the day when she caught a glimpse of the two come inside in pretty bad shaped nearly gasping,"Mr.Hatchi what happened here!" "She....hurt herself in the woods during the solar eclispe and I tried to get her down and cut my wrist." she looks at her arm and at his wrist calling for help and Takoyo came grabbing Yuki knowing she might lose her arm if more time passed,Raiku was worried when he took her from him but Ayume took him in as well,"Your lucky you didnt bleed to death, your wrist is pretty fragile lets get it fixed up."

She tended to his wound careful with each stitch she did but he took it well but was a little delerious from blood loss but she kept him alert talking to her while she finished,after the last stitch she laid him down giving him water,"Losing blood like that is really bad but I know, you did it to lure her back I know what happens with eclispes it messes with the vampuric senses and cause trouble. Your wrist will be fine and now is gaining back what you lost with some fluids and I'll check on you later." she says shutting his door but before it closed Raiku could hear Yuki in the hall and she was screaming.

He knew it was because she was getting her stitches as well and for a child to go through that alone was tourturous for him since he couldnt do anything about it and could feel his eyes shutting and falls asleep. An hour goes by and Raiku starts to wake up and looked at his surrounding....forgetting he was in the hospital and sits up feeling as if his strength doubled and the door opens."Well look whos finally up and about..a little girl wanted to see you but I had you rest." Takoyo commnets holding Yuki slouched on his shoulder awake but quiet and he smiles at her."She was a bit of a struggle but we put her asleep for the process and it turned out great,once you see her for a moment both of you can go home,I bet Mrs.Hatchi is worried." The truth was she had no idea since he lied to her and thinking a call would worried her more with her knee so they both interact for a moment before going home.

Cold sweat poured on his forehead as he thought back on what he just thought, something was disturbing him and the feeling was like he sense something bad was about to happen coming up but the question was what?,he turns seeing Senente was still asleep not moving an inch from his stuggling in his sleep. Yuki was asleep in a ball in the corner mewing lightly in her sleep while Everest was folding paper in the kitchen, everything was silent for once which became regular daily and it was how it was suppose to be. He goes into the bathroom to wash his face off with the dream scare fresh in his mind,"Something isnt right...whats going to happen and when or better yet.....what will it do to this family again." his thoughts go on but the best thing to think was to brush it off, he had a critical part of the day and relaxing at home sounded good.

He remembered Senente went on tour for skating a few times in the year out of Skyline even out of Japan and would be gone for some time, he knew this year was going to be different since now they had the girl how would they take seeing their mother gone for awhile,its rough on many kids and with the way Raiku was tending to the house.....things can go wrong in different ways from small chores becoming even more work they need to be.It got a little later and Everest wondered what Yuki was doing huddled in the corner and approaches her only to look at her arm seeing the stitching patten around her arm and started to feel scared seeing her as if she was sewn back together like a doll and ran upstairs.

He could easily tell from her face she wasnt mad but more disappointed at him and his injury,"I know it looks bad but Ayume said it didnt cut too deep so theres no nerve damage or anything....you know how glass can be I just didnt see it." "Didnt see it?....broken glass bottle? I dint care if it was a mere knofe but dont you see what could've happened its the same thing all over again with Yuki's blood desires and you cutting it.Is losing the ability to weild TenRai worth it Raiku? is it." Senente at tis point is putting her anger onto him thinking he should've been more careful however if he actually told the truth one, he would get her angry more for lying and two even more for the reason."I'm sorry Sen, I know I should be more careful....Yuki was gone and I didnt want you on your knee before the tour. For the rest of the time before you go I'll be the most careful I can be."

She heaves a sigh knowing Raiku well when he ment as careful as possible he still had the clumbsy trait to mess something up from time to time which she learned to deal with, she goes downstairs seeing Yuki in the corner as she pops her head out slowly looking at her mother but she was still sluggish from the hospital and really didnt know where she was or what was happening,Senente could see the damage on her arm seeing the uniformed stitch pattern close,"She really did a number on her arm, Rai you best be on her like a hawk when I leave a cut like that can be proned to so many things so cleaning and proper care is a must.I just wish she could come with me on tour so i can watch her."

He sighs himself,"Dont worry about it like I told Everest I'll be keeping an eye on her so movement around the house will be limited till she heals up a little. I can handle this Sen its not going to be hard." he says but Senente being protective just wondered what would they be doing with her absence and how would she take being separated from the girls for some time...it was her natural instints that was making it hard but with Raiku asurring her things on the island would be fine in his hands numbed the tensity on her shoulders.

The tour wasnt for a couple more weeks but when it came to Senente though a couple weeks sounded like only days away and everything had to be perfect, from the proper attire for the road and skating to having everything memorized what Rin had taught her.She only went to America a couple times and it was much different then what she was used to then in Skyline, almost everything was advance in a way that wasnt really common in Japan but luckly currency and the language wasnt going to be a problem. Couple hours go by and her room was stacked with her suitcases filled for the trip and she comes down seeing Raiku reading to Everest while Yuki was still in a ball in the corner never stirring from her spot when she came home which to Senente watch her from the steps thinking,"I know Raiku can do this its like babysitting...only long term I dont think he can mess things up badly if I have a list made....nothing to fear."

He hears the stairs and turns to see her,"Glad you finally join us Sen, Everest and I were just catching up in a little reading...she likes stories alot from the Aura temple." Senente looks close to see the stack of books were familier to the ones in the temples vast library,"I'm surprised, I would think Yuki would be the one intrested in the subject a little more quickly but....if its something Everest likes to know I'm not one to judge." "Oh dont worry she's still yours to teach with herbals and such,curiosity is what got her and....she got bored" he says with a smirk,truely Senente liked that things wernt what she thought that it was going to be hard for everyone once she leaves and the stray thoughts of her negativity hid in the back of her mind.

"Daddy daddy! what happens next? dont keep me waiting I want to know." Everest bounces on his lap as he chuckes turning the page and reads on while Senente smiled and looked to Yuki true she was curled up in a tight ball but the sedetives they used on her should've wore off awhile ago and goes to her,she scans her arm looking at the stitching they did and a disgust look came on her face, it wasnt the stitches keeping Yuki's arm on that got to her but the fact it got close to the point the arm was off her completely."Your a lucky little fox you know that, without your arm the dream you have of being like your father would be crushed and so would your spirit....so lucky" she thinks to herself.

Thinking about the subject was in her mind from the book, her and Raiku's marriage was mere papers in a court to adopt the girls and thinking about it they didnt have any sort of ceremony being a time of romance or anything like that till reading on what happened with Raiku's parents."I wonder....we have paperwork and everything from the adoptions but is it possible?..we be able to have a real ceremony?" Senente thinks in her mind about it but wonder if he had the same idea as well but was waiting for the right moment....just like his father did.

He looks down and sees Everest had took off without him noticing and lets out a left getting Senente's attention as well,"Shes just like her sister...sneaky as a fox when it comes to running off we have clever girls dont we Sen." "Yeah, that we truely do have not to mention a temp son who can hide litterally in the walls. The children may not be fully human but thats what makes them special to us." she says with a slight smile as she point where Everest took off seeing a bit of her skirt underneath the table watching Yuki in the corner. Senente knew she was curious about Yuki but with her in the state she was in now everyone had to be cautious especially when the kids come to play,looking to the clock it was already seven and the sun was coming down slow.

"Well better go on ahead and make some dinner i bet your all hungry right?" she says going in the kitchen with Everest clinging by her leg ready to help,Raiku had his head on his hand deep in thought on something as he heared Yuki stir and unravel out of her ball slowly and he goes to her,"Well now, are we back from the dead sleepy one youve been out for a long time." he says lightly as he picked her up her eyes were trying to adjust to the light and her surrounding and was still a tad sluggish.

He should've had the thought right in his head at the time but with them being married not even a year it was hard for him to actually call it an anneversery,"Thats right ten years ago I bumped into you and since that look at us now,well now thinking about it we should go out just you and me." "But Rai we cant leave the girls on their own and Yuki is still trying to get her senses back unless..." Senente thinks and knew maybe one of the squad members could come and watch the girls Sakura especially since she was very gentle with them. "You know, why not I can call up Sakura and she could watch them while we go into town,its nice out tonight and we can take a little time to ourselves before I go...after dinner we can."

Raiku has a big smile on his face staring at Senente as they all ate dinner while she turned a tint of red,Everest watching them couldnt resist a little giggle. Once dinner was done and everything was put up Senente calls up Sakura and right away agrees to watch the girls and rushes over as Raiku and Senente prepared to go,after a few minutes the door rings and Raiku answers it a little surprised that not just Sakura but the other two were with her,"I know I was suppose to watch but the boys were bored at home and want to see the girls again Naruto really wants to see his little sister badly." he looks to Naruto who was looking for Yuki not seeing her till Senente came in ready holding her,"You need to be very careful with her Naruto,I know how you can be but with her arm worser than before everyone need to be fragile with her.She didnt eat much maybe you can get her to eat some more." They exchange some words before the two went out the door for a little anneversary night out.

Ever since they were kids playing with dumplings was a past time and it always came with laugh,Senente was picking a stick up taking a glance at Raiku staring at her,"Well Rai whats with you I know your glad to see me but this as well? whats on your mind now." "Just watching the most beautiful girl thats one and two....I'm thinking of you." She starts to turn a tint of red though she was used to his types of phrase but the night's choice of words ment a lot,they stay for awhile exchanging glances and the occasional snatching of the sweets laughing at the fun,Senente was right about the whole thing of going out....she was having alot of fun and so was Raiku.

After a few hours on the town they walk around enjoying eachother's company in the starry sky watching as the skyline illuminated the waters,"This is such a beautiful night,I'm glad we decided to do something celebrating the time we've been together." he looks to her as her head was on his should and arms around one of his,"Only the best for my girl and I'll make you the happiest all the time no matter whats in the way...you'll never want to feel sad while I'm around." he says dipping his head to hers kissing her passinately which took her from surprise yet she let him.

Back at the house it wasnt as chaotic as it was before since then that time it was having to chase Yuki down to even get her pajamas one but tonight was a quiet one,Saskue and Sakura watched Everest playing with her blocks while upstairs Naruto confine himself in Yuki's room holding her close in a chair.She remained slowish and calm fragile to any loud sounds he kept calm with her just as he did when she had Reaper's Grasp and didnt want to leave her how she was and acted as the big brother he devoted to be,"I know I was harsh ing the beginning causing trouble but I promise to do whatever it takes to get you back to the hyper happy little sister i know....you'll see." She refused to eat at dinner and the others tried failing but Naruto remembered from the pass that worked back then and repeated it now keeping a rice bottle by him.
