Welcome to Gaia! ::

Raiku was happy to finally see a smile on her face than from before when her wonderful face was dull from having to deal with the stress of escaping from those believing science was everything, being up in the mountains was the best thing to have done and she was back to being her perfect spunky self. Senente left the room giving the dried flower over to Everest since recently from a study of the enviorment seeing flowers and finding ways of preserving them started to becomefun and all her activities were based on them creating many things from cards,necklaces, even pins and such to the point of making them every hour or so. Raiku saw it and thought it was a good thing for Everest to have some sort of hobby while living in a quiet village verses Skyline, and as well the change was worth it. Everest was tying bits of string together making a chain along with leaves from smaller flowers along with field flowers, carefully making sure not to break a piece till a smile was on her face to see the finished product looking up to Senente."I finally finished it mommy and its for you and this one here I made for daddy to wear with these dark colored ones so he doesnt have to wear pink for pastels."

Senente didnt know what to think seeing the image she tried so hard to forget but yet it continued to follow with time, Yuki stood there for a moment to look up but something was off since the figure didnt attacked seeing the sight of her, as if she was just an image but from close inspection Senente could see the moon on her forehead was slightly clouded as if binded to the water unable to get out onto the land. Yuki looked up for a split secind and a smile crept on her face giving a chill around the both of them.
"I see that you have a happy life with your husband and children.....as well as an infant version of my being. Enjoy that as you can because there is no way that you can take away the Nightshade part of her, that part of her will continue to stay and I'll be around to see your tries fail and Kurai will do everything in his power to make sure she will become the upcoming tyrant that will make sure it goes perfect."
She tried to be creepy about her threat since Senente knew well Kurai was part of Yuki and like she was if he was gone so was Senente's little baby.

Starting to get panicked himself Raiku scrambled around himself hearing the words baby and missing and was thinking the worse hearing Senente scream unable to find her in her nursery, giving off a strong red flag for both of them. It was the one thing parents didnt want to deal with however Queen Yuki scared them straight since they have no clue where else to look befoe they got to the point of thinking Yuki had been taken or the worse of things.
"Sen I dont understand I left her in her crib for a nap and checked on her twice.....I have no clue that she vanished I swear on it!!!"
Raiku tried to explain himself but it wasnt coming through to Senente, crying in heartbreak that she couldnt find her baby till Nasagah and Everest came in the door tossing their books down to hear the chaos happened with confused faces, Raiku explained it but instead of worrying themselves they were silent as Everest looked outside.
"Mommy its alright she's fine...I forgotten that Mrs.Mokenami came by and let Hiroshi take her by the river to experience the outdoors."

With the relif that nothing was wrong with Yuki and she wasnt harmed in any way, Senente relaxed a little though being on the mountain for as long as they were she still thought that it was a bit dangerous especially if anyone tread the high mountain oeaks where the predetors lurked around. It was rare that they went into the village but as precaution most of the village's men would be on standby if in that case a threat was in the village, the women and children had time to flee in a hiding place. Raiku looked out the window seeing Senente,Hiroshi, and Yuki climb on the porch and sighed himself that the worry came in a good ending part.

"I see you found our little traveler, I mustve been up by the ranch watching the herd and didnt see Hiroshi come up to the house, speaking of that its about my time to watch over them again, just till they had time to graze."

Raiku was able to be place as one of the ranchers taking care of the several cows, chickens,sheep,horses, pigs,mules, and any other animal the village could have up on the high elevations and was well trained to handle the long hikes up and down the hills. He gave Senente a quick kiss and pet for the children as he grabbed his satchel bag out the door for his turn at work while Senente looked in the children's bags taking a sern disgust look to a note from the teacher of Nasagah attacking another student during class of all times to pick.

Nasagah was quiet for a minute not wanting to answer her question but Senente wouldnt just let it go without an explination and tried to lightly go on with the question to the point he couldnt remain mute with fists clenched tight to his sides.
"Its the kids there I know the class is small but there are three of them that have been giving me and Hiroshi a hard time since we got here.....it started up after the first week of school and the teacher started to talk about what happen at home from the earthquake. After hearing it both me and Hiroshi ended up being picked on even Everest was being shoved around, all we tried to do was make them stop and they kept calling us dirty immigrating japs and we should be back in our own country. Soon after they beat on us even giving Hiroshi a nasty gash to the back and he ran back home....thats why I did it because I had enough because were not those words."
Nasagah was close in tears and not too long he was on his knees crying out of control since the words were painful even though Everest was staying quiet and Hiroshi tried to make it like nothing happened.

She knew something wasnt right when Hiroshi came home early from school but had to trust him on his words when he said his early return was only because chores had to be done, but that wasnt the truth since Haruka could see that they were done the night before.

"I knew that something wasnt right from how he was walking but I didnt know how severe it was and feel terrible for not seeing it throughly. I would think at first a confrontation with the childrens's teacher needs to be done first before going into desprite measures, not like I dont want you to go one with something you love to do but America is much more different than in Skyline....the criteria for education is so much different here with a lot more things they have to learn then mere target practice and herbs, they need sciences and several different maths. A meeting should be the first things to go by with the trouble children saying those awful things and see from there."

Haruka looked down to the sleeping children and remembered back from her Phantronian home on when Lokchaions would thinks of the most dirtiest names to call those from Phamtrois, so she knew the hurt words would leave and didnt want it to happen all over again with her own son nor the Hatchi children. Both families had lived on the mountain village for a couple months now and liked to be there however if children were namecalling their own based on what happened with the earthquake....it wasnt needed. Haruka carefully scooped up Hiroshi gentile for his back and headed to the door.

"I'm going to be taking him home and tend to his back and give him the attention he really needs right now, he's in the phase of wanting to do things all by himself like the man of the house since he pretty much at the age a Phamtronian would be condidered a man by proving himself as a main provider. But there are times I wish for him to just grow up on Earth as any other child would than the traditions in the Shadow Realm."
She made a simple light nod before leaving for the trail to her home.

He came him to see he was irritated from the sound of the call and braced on what she was going to say after the whole thing.
"Is something wrong that I can help with?" he asked a little spooked in his voice.
Senente was quiet for a moment and heaved a sigh realizing that it wasnt his fault that this was happening.
"No, the thing is I was on the phone with the principal and he's telling me that theres nothing he can do about the bullying on the boys and Everest....I've decided to homeschool them myself if the district is going to be like that."
Raiku knew she ment well but the fact she was going a little far to doing that than to figure out another solution.
"I know you mean well Sen but dont you think thats a little rash to do that I'm......I'm almost on the school's side on this since children will be mean to things they dont understand. Its not like Skyline Academy where there are thousands of students from Pre K to twelveth grade, here theres only about fifty kids in all grades and as well they've never seen whats been going on and I dont see other reason why the children would be mean about it.... they dont understand that its serious on our part. As well what about your job as the herbalist to the village and mother to baby Yuki, you even have to carry her on your back to collect herbs while I'm up in the mountains watching the herds.....dont you think it will be much if you add that to your plate?"
Raiku was trying to show concern about the problem but knew it was going to be a fighting debate on keeping the children in the district.

She had no idea what was up his sleeves yet it was all on him on what was going on heading into the city, there wasnt much to the village so the only thing next to travel is by bus into Nashville not too far off the mountain. Seeing the cherry blossems reminded him on how close they were going to be from their wedding and the imagry of seeing all those blossem petals showering them on that day, Raiku had to go and check out the bridal boutiques in the area and meet with a planner so everything would go as planned with everyone attending the two knew and that the festivities are at their best performances. Getting off the bus it reminded him of back home somewhat but in a way it was still a alien world with the metropolitan theme going and cars literally every square foot imagine....it was a little bit creepy he not try to get hit. It didnt take long for him to figure directions out with the translator Senente had gave him when they settle in the village to help read things in Japanese.
