What was I to do bur finish eating and hope Raiku was going to be alright. I hated being away from him, and once Rin fel asleep, I snuck oit my phone and called Raiku.
Hi, You've reached Raiku. Leave a message and I'll get back to you when I get your message. Bye My heart was sinking, true, Raiku could have been asleep, but, we ues a duel charger to save on the eleticity, with the pokemon being our only power sorce, but, just three electric pokemon will keep us lit for three days. I went online and saw a huge snow storm over Japan.
Maybe the strom knocked out all comunications. I'll try in the morning I said as I layed down and looked at the moon.
Still.....could have something happened to Raiku....I hope not.... I just tossed and turned as the worry stacked on.
________________________________________
Raiku played with all the children before heading into a room himself to sleep. He sat the picture of us on the night stand and closed his eyes.
He slept for a bit untill he began to dream. He saw tears hitting the ground heand heard my voice yelling his name. My cheeks red while trying to catch my breath, and my eyes swollen red from my tears.

He tossed in his sleep unable to get the images he was seeing in his mind of Senente in pain it was impossible to get out of,the screaming gets louder it causes Raiku to sit up fast face covered in a cold sweat thinking of what he just saw."Sen....she's very worried about me now just one night of no communication is enough to make her panic and being in America is not making it better.I know I want to talk to her but its all a risk...everything is a risk now till she returns."
True it wasnt going to be too long but his heart was heavy with grief and the sting of lonliness being separated from her was tearing him up inside as tears streamed down his face,just looking at the picture of her was unberable and soon he gets up hoping walking around the dojo could clear his head. Silence was the only noise piercing the air with the muffled sound of the wind's howl blowing against the shutters,it took him a minute to get out of his futon since once he left his room it was bitter cold inside but he made due and walked quietly in the hall feeling still tense of everything.
It was going alright as he kneeled by the dining table but he hears a small whine coming from one of the children's room and went to investigate,Raiku follows the sound come from Hiromi's room and sees her crying in her sleep as if she was being attacked,"No mommy no dont hurt her.....I want to be with her dont go." she yells unable to wake up and he watched from the doorway.Just as he went inside quietly to calm her down something caught his eye that made him back up a little,looking closely he could see Hiromi's moon have a slight soft glow to it.....a thought came to him.

Yuki!!! My little girl....than that must mean Asako is Everest....explining the size. He thought. He knelt down at her side and began to stoke her hair. His heart felt lighter that his girls were safe, but sitll was heavy knowing that he was on the run, lied to me, and knew that he put all of the squad in danger because of his act to avoid being arrested.
Hiromi moaned lightly and opened her eyes to their shade of red, but made them go to silver.
"Daddy's here, Yuki....." He whispered and Hiromi looked up at him confued, but she did fell more comfortable knowing that Raiku was there.
___________________________________________
Sakura sat on her couch in a panic as the police was secrhing her house from top to bottom, looking for Raiku and the head officer held onto her phone and laptop, but thir serch was fruitless. Sakura got her phone back and called Sasuke and Naruto, still in her panic. Both the guys knew of what Raiku did was for me and Naruto had an idea to throw them off his trial for a while.
"How about I get Raiku's phone and laptop and bring them to my house, Sasuke, you go serch for him, that way, he could see Senente's performances. Thay'll think that the computer is mine and I have an extra cell phone." He said
"Naruto!!!! What a great idea!!!" Saukra said with joy.
"Yeah. With the GPS system in his computer, it'll throw them off their serch for him and Raiku will be safe from the police." Sasuke smiled.
____________________________________________
All I did was toss and turn with Raiku on my mind and I had a sence going down my back and just tossed and turned. I was going to be skating, but I couldn't sleep.
1:39 in the morning.....I just can't shake the feeling that Raiku needs me....

The truth was he really did needed her big time, with everything that was happening he needed all the help he could get especially in the wreck he was in.Once the police left it looked clear for the squad to take their places and off to their assiment,Naruto was cautious going to Hatchi Island not knowing if it was being staked out for Raiku but with all the pokemon being territorial it didnt seem so and he went inside.He was careful to look for the itams not to leaves any signs he was there and spots Raiku's laptop and phone, once he got them it was straight to his house where he placed them in spots they would normally be. Saskue looked around seeing if there was any sign of him in the woods knowing he wouldnt try to go to familier spots so the woods seem like a hidden place, the snow calmed down enough so he could look in all the spots and sees the dojo,"It looks abandoned perhaps he went there to get out of the blizzard...worth a shot." and cautiously goes by the doors.
____________________________________________________________
Morning came in Seattle but for Senente it was a restless slepp, her eyes were red of crying and showing the tiredness she had worried what was happening back home,"Still nothing from Raiku...what are you doing Hatchi boy?" she thinks sitting by the window, there wasnt anything she could do and it tore her up in the inside just wanting to hear him to know he was alright....but its silent. The first performance was tonight and Senente's mood for skating wasnt at her peak feeling depressed and homesick but even with those feeling she knew if she continued it would affect her performance on the rink.
_____________________________________________________________
Raiku stayed up with Hiromi knowing it was Yuki and remembered she wouldnt sleep unless he or Senente was with her till she was able to,"This is my little girl no doubt about it, I just wonder why she looks at me the way she does as if I'm a stranger." Raiku thinks looking down to see she was clutching onto his hand."Mr?....I'm sorry I ran into you at the square that day I need to look when I walk next time.""Its ok little one accidents happen and I'm not mad at all dont worry." he plays along with it glancing at her arm, Raiku sees the marks of the stitches and the places where her casts were had been blended to look like her skin tone with the slight raise of them appearing."
The sound of the door opening alerts Raiku as he shoves Hiromi in the blankets and goes to look,Saskue looks around seeing a shadow and was ready to fight but stops seeing Raiku but wasnt ready to see his change,both of them look at eachother,"Saskue?""Raiku?!"

"It's like two in the morning.....what are you doing here?"
"I fled from arrest. I was trying to save Senente and Yuki....what's so worng about that?"
"Nothing......but Naruto came up with a plan to have you and Senente talk to eachother."
"What? It's dangerous.....the GPS tracking in my phone and computer..."
"That's when you go to Naruto's house."
"What?"
"He came up with an idea that if you went to his hose where your phone and computer is, you can still talk to Senente."
"Ok.....but what will that do?"
"The police will think it's Naruto's and they won't expect anything."
"Won't that put you all at risk?"
"No....we'll get rid of any history by cleaning out the mother board of your computer and hide Senente's name as your mother's" Sasuke said.
Haruka heard the two talking and knew what they were up to.
That way he could see his wife....a smart idea.....risky, but smart.... She thought and went to Hiromi's bed side and sung her to sleep.
"Sasuke...I need to talk to her....let her know. I want to hear her voice." Raiku said. He pulled out a pokeball and one of his pokemon appred.
"Are you sure you want to use Pidgeot?"
"That way it'll look like no one was here. I can't have Haruka get busted for aiding my escape."
The two took off, soaring low to the ground and Sasuke kept his eyes open, sharp incase of any attacks.
They land on Naruto's roof and Raiku climbed from the roof to the balcony.
Naruto was sound asleep when he heard the snow crunch outside his window. He knew it must have been Raiku. Unlocking the door to his balcony, Raiku nodded to Naruto and went right to the table and saw his laptop.
_____________________________________________
I sat by the window all morning and didn't pay attention to Rin as she was looking at the costumes for the skate tonight.
Just stairing, I watched the clouds roll on by with not much happening. Rin could tell when i was upset and I saw her like a second mother to me, even though she's twenty two, she was that close to me.
"Don't worry, Sen....he'll call." He said. I heard the computer beeping and I went right over to it. I clicked on the little webcam logo and my eyes widened as I saw a silver haired man on the screen.

She was a little hesitent at first but once he started to speak she knew it was him,"Rai.....wow I didnt even reconize you,your....your so different." he smiles feeling his heart lighten,"Oh Sen...its nice to hear from you its been rough back here remember Sakana? she is doing everything to get back at me so I decided to flee hoping it would buy some time and even Haruka is helping thats explaining my disquise." he says trying to hold back his tears but Senente was already there happy to know he was there and her fears were tooken care of.
Haruka watches for a moment seeing the two happy reunited not body but emotionally and lets them have time alone to get back the time they lost,Raiku calms her down,"Sen.....I know it seems bad now but dont worry,with them still trying to find me it will give us the time we need and once you come back to Japan everything will be alright....I know it will." She thinks about it and smiles making him laugh a little,"There now thats what I wanted to see...everything will be alright." "I know Rai just be safe for the time being."he nods,"I will"

After speeking with Raiku, my heart was clear of any burdans and now, I can focus on what I was sent here to do. Skate and make Skyline proud of me. I looked to see what Rin was creating and smiled.
"Holly green with mint red."
"Well, it IS a holiday skate and you need to look the part."
"I know." I replied. I grabbed a towel and my body wash, with Rin and I using the same brand of shampoo, it saved some money, but the American currancy really low, it was depressing on the price for a bottle of shampoo was almost three dollars. Everything was expensive.
"Get use to it, Sen. Ameica is in a finacal bind with other countries, Japan included. It takes years to get out of something like this."
I remembered the last time Rin and I was here and everything was really cheep.
"Wasn't it like this about eighty years ago?"
"Worse."
"Why does it happen?"
"Well, sometimes, Americans get too ahead of themselves and it caught up with them."
"Than why do I see Japanese products?"
"We export them and they give us something in return. Like the barbaric medicene, it's all Ameican made."
"Ew....so not only is it gross, but it's also porsessed here? People look so sad...." I said.
"Well, some of them don't have jobs right now. They try and lay people off to put more money back into what's been lost."
___________________________________________
"I'll be back tonight to watch Sen skate. It'll be streamed online live." Raiku said as he and Sasuke took off on Pidgeot as the sun was just breaking the night sky.
Raiku landed and put Pidgeot back in the pokeball and layed down on his futon and looked at the picture.
Now that I've got to talk to you, I can rest easy now....I love you Sen and when you get home, I'll make you fell like more than a winner He thought before closing his eyes.

He wakes to the sun hitting the shutter and sits up trying to wake up but notices it was quiet,"No one is up? is it still early in the morning or something." he thinks curious.He checks the rooms seeing they were empty with each futon rolled up and set by the walls and he begun to wonder if something wasnt right, it wasnt till he heared the girls giggling outside and slides the door open.They were running on the dojo's porch chasing the snow and throwing snowballs while Hiroshi was digging for something in the garden.
Raiku stares for a moment wondering what could actually grow in the winter and goes back in next to the fire, last night's meeting with Senente put him in a better mood then he was in before,he went from being in deep dispair to lighten with the new day,"With this little game going on the tension on my heart wont grow and my fears can take a rest for the time being...Sen...I still want to be with you and you will feel more better once your back home." His face turned a tint red thinking about it but shakes his head hearing the children come in carrying several different plants he'd never seen before but notices Haruka wasnt around,"Hey Hiroshi wheres your mother at by chance?" he puts the plants down on the table looking at him,"She went into the market this morning to get some milk, salt and thread...Hiromi ripped a hole in one of her kimonos.So she told me to let you sleep in while the girls and I harvested a few herbs and roots." Raiku nods joining the girls by the fire to warm up.
____________________________________________________________
Haruka was just coming by the pier with her supplies rushing to get back however she wasnt knowing she was being spotted hidden,"Is that the one Sakana was talking about? kinda odd looking woman." "That may be but she clearly said she saw that woman communicate with the Aura Guardian a few times at the school and as a plus she's the school's nurse so she might have the answers we need. We must follow the instructions, find the woman in this picture and follow her into the woods and then do what we need to do to get a few questions answered...she's definately the one."
Sakana was going to ultimate measure to try and get Raiku out and remembered seeing Haruka once talking to him in the schoolyard and got the twisted idea to possibly lure him out, so thats when she had her older brother and deceased fiance's brother go out and find her. Haruka enters the wooded path feeling an uneasy sense in her to look a few times to see if someone was there but sees nothing, as she walks they drew closer to her.

With Haruka being alone and an uneasy feeling, she thought about it for a bit and headed off the main trail and over by the lake. She did remember haveing me tell her about what happened alomst fifteen years ago. Once she was at the lake, she steped on the ice and broke it up a bit to make it look like she fell in. Looking back at the tracks she made, she smiled and made them look like Raiku was walking by sliding her feet about an inch, maybe two.
Pulling out a Garamunu root and craking it, she dripped out the juice used to calm burns. A shade of red, like blood and fallowed her trail back up to where she started the off trail and made it look like Raiku was hurt.
______________________________________________
Heromi and Raiku were busy cleaning untill his obi came untied and his Nova ring fell out. As he tied it back up, Hiromi held onto the ring and it glew a bright silver. Hiromi's eyes responded and saw an image of Raiku, and me and her and Asako. It was from her past and all the things I done for her. Us in the pokemon berry garden getting berries to make the food, skating, Cyber Cuties, and when I tried to save her from Cyrus. That last image broght back some of here memory. Looking up, she saw Raiku.
"D....Daddy?"
"Hiromi....are you alright?"
"D....Daddy?" Raiku looked at her and realized the his ring brought up some memories. He knelt down and hugged her.
"Daddy.....why are you here?"
________________________________________________
I was at the ring going through the move Rin wanted to see and she was impressed.
"Wow, Sen, just a bit ago, you were upset that you haven't talked to Raiku, but once you talked to him, your game came back and you're back on the top of the game." Rin said.
I let out a ywan and Rin looked at the time. "Well, the skate isn't untill eight, it'll be about eleven in Japan so Raiku will watch it according to plan, the police stop looking for him at ten, and he'll be safe. Why don't we lay you down. I'll wake you up about two hours before the show."
"Alright thanks Rin." I layed down and finaly slept.

I came here because daddy needs to hide....the man that took you I accidently killed and his fiance wants to make sure I'm locked up forever." Hiromi clutched onto him closely starting to sniffle,"But daddy knows I was protecting you and mommy so I ran from the island and came here so Haruka could disguise me and give me time till mommy gets back and she can help me with my defense." He picks her up wiping her tears and she looks at him not wanting to let go of him."Mommy can fix this...she can tell them your not mean I dont think you are nor does Haruka. So thats why you came here.....so they couldnt find you that makes sense." Raiku smiles trying to put her down but she refuses to do so and remembered well Yuki was the same way when she didnt want to be on the ground."
_____________________________________________________________
Haruka hid in a tree hollow as she heared footsteps come near the lake and waited to see if it would work,"Look here! looks like our wanted one is down for the count the ice is all broken up." The men look at her setup and from the inspection took the conclusion he fell in the ice and was hurt looking at the root juice trails."Well if he did tried to run again he's not gonna last too long in this cold,Hyperthermia will set in and by the look of the blood he might bleed to death....we better get back with our findings," Haruka smiles waiting till they were out of sight to sprint back to the dojo.

"Yuki, I know you're upset of what daddy's going through....but I know I was trying to get my girls home. Right now, this is home untill mommy is back"
"Alright, Daddy....."
Raiku reached into his obi and pulled out a pokeball.
"And I think this little guy belongs to you" He said handing it to her. Asako came by and saw them.
"You guys need to get cleaning." She said.
"Sissy.....it's daddy"
"How? Daddy died back in our home realm...."
"No, lookie here.....this ring."
Asako looked at the ring and saw the sun hit it, which made it glow. Her eyes met the gleam and they faded to green, like mine.
"Daddy?"
"Everest.....honey."
Hiroshi came by and saw Raiku and the girls.
"Hiroshi." Yuki said. Hiroshi looked at her eyes and saw the ruby color was back.
"Yuki...." Hiroshi choked and hugged her.
Raiku smiled as the door slid open and Haruka came in to see the girls with their normal eye color.
"Girls....you're in hiding, why are your eyes like that?"
"Well.....because of daddy's ring.....but theirs a girl with purple hair we don't know. She looks fimilar, but we don't know who she is..." Yuki said in an upset tone.
"That's your mommy.....Senente...my wife." Raiku said, but Yuki and Everest were confused.
"Well, how about you two girls can have your normal eye color in the dojo, but when the four of us go into town, your eyes will be silver?"
"Sure"
"And that means I'll be alone in the dojo." Raiku said.
"Better safe than sorry, Mr. Hatchi."
"I know....untill Senente comes home."
_________________________________________
Rin sat and red a book and realized that it was almost seven in the evening and forgot that she had to wake me up an hour ago. She went over to my bed and woke me up.
"Senente, come on, we only have an hour until showtime come on wake up." With me being a light sleeper, I jotted up and looked at her.
"Here, here, let me get you hair up done how do you want it?"
"Um uh.....hu.....pigtails?"
"Ok ok here, get in costume now!!!"
"What do you think I'm doing?"
"Ok ok, put the holly in each one than we NEED to get you to the rink"
"Ok, ok!!!!!" I said as I tied the holly up in my hair.
"And don't worry, this will be streaing live for Raiku to see."
"I'll do my best."
"No, be the best. Do it for Raiku."

The first competition had its share of intensity, several of the world's best skaters were alined all coming from America,Russia,Europe and several more were all there ready to give their time to shine for their country.Senente waited in the lobby watching the first round take thier turns and looking close they have been in the game for some time showing all the moves from the basics to the advanced that she had never seen or attempt to try,Rin goes over to her,"Dont worry Senente these guys are good but you can show the world what Skyline can do and I know you can do it." Senente smiles but her attention goes to one of the skaters who she knew would be much of a challenge to beat, a slender built girl about her age coming from Moscow,Russia that some of the others have been calling her Galina and from her expression she didnt care who was around her and was wanting to be caring for herself.Galina takes a look to Senente with a small smirl that gave her a little chill as she passes her,Senente watched her for a moment and knew she already had a rival in the game.

I watched he close as she did turns into spins and jumps into axles, I knew how to do that, but Skyline had one of Japan's best.
I headed out to the ice and waited. My heart was raceing.
_______________________________________________
Back at home, Raiku landed on Naruto's roof and went inside and logged on under my account on his laptop. He went to the skating website and saw how Galina scored.
Soon my name was called and Raiku focused his eyes on me.

The ice grew dark as Senente waited for the first chord of music to start, it was calming at first with the basic glides around following the gentle tune as it started to speed up then things got more complex,a turn here a spin there it builds up and soon Senente is doing her signature manuver doing every step right and making her marks on cue with the music.The crowd was amazed cheering her on as all her spins were fast and accurate and once the lights dimmed and music faded it was all crowd wild for her and to Rin surprise she didnt know Senente would be so popular.....but she never did want to judge her star skater unlike the audience who loved her.
___________________________________________________________
Raiku was watching on the computer and could hear the crowd in the background cheering on her performance, he himself was proud and didnt know she had so much potential and fire in her soul to pull it off."Oh Sen....you did so well dont let those other skaters take you down you can show them whos boss and lead to the gold....I know you can do it my love....you always do" she was looking happy as she skates to Rin and Raiku too smiled glad she was having fun and the American people were loving here....all he wanted to do was be there and praise her for the amazing show she gave.

I skated over to Rin and she was just a proud as proud can be. I put on the gaurds and sat down as they tallied up my score.
"You know that this is the supenceful part." Rin said to me as the scores were shown. My heart was racing and I could tell Raiku was still caring for me and was just as worried as I was. My Aura Ring was glowing and that calmed me to know that I had nothing to worry about.
Galina looked up at the screen and saw that she was the one in the lead, untill my score came up. I did well scoring over 300 points.
___________________________________________
Raiku let out a laugh as I stood up and saw that I was now leading.
"That's my girl.....Skyline's best....and you showed them how you were too....way to go Senente." He whispered.
