The Four Cabins

[Yukiko Nova]

(alright lets see if I can make this good...)

Nova , Zichiro, Arata, and the rest went out to the dark wooded area as Shiro had requested. Nova wasn't sure why but she wasn't going to question someone with that much power.

The group came to four suculed cabins in the woods just as he had said. "God...hes got everything planned out...But the only thing is...Whos sleeping with who?" Nova said looking around at everything afraid to hear some of the answers. God only knew what perverted answers will come from some of the people around her. Nova folded her arms as she looked around. The cabins were nicely decortated from what she could see in the window. A small candle like glow came from each one as the curtains were drawn back. "Well it looks like they did a nice job on it." Nova really couldn't see anything wrong with the living conditions and picked the cabin furthest to the right begining to walk towrd it. Whoever was going to stay with her just should fallow beacause she hates to wait more then anything in the entire world.

Nova opened the cabin door looking around as she room seen lit up by candle light. There was two rooms in each cabin she suspected and one living room and two bath. "Well this will go over well..."Nova found the room and placed her things on the bed as she flopped back. Everything with the beds was already made and everything spit shine and spotless...somehow it seemed as if someone with a really bad cleaning disorder came in. Nova stared around the room for a while loking like the same set up they had before. Nova came out of her room after placeing her stuff on the bed looking for whoever would be her roomate....

(SORRY! I COULDN'T THINK AT 11:19pm I hope you guys like the room set up anyway...if you dont ill change it)

[etsukoteramune]

Arata watched Nova go into the room and he instantly looked at Zichiro, tilting his head in the signal as 'Follow Her, Now. Or be Crucified' threat. He knew Zichiro was beginning to like her, it was easy to tell as she made Zichiro smile for the first time in nearly 9 months..

Moving in the Cabin he helped Shira to a bed and turned on a small TV, these things had some connection atleast. FLicking through the channels he sighed and let the remote rest of Shiras bed next to her. "Choose whatever you like, okay?" Smiling he went forward to a small desk and sat down, beginning to read a book.

Tidus would have his own cabin to himself, aswell as Iyoku. Asko and Akagos Cabin was only a little distance away, so they were fine.

[Tidus Archean]

Tidus arrived at the cabins with the idea to sleep outside. It didn't matter to him whether or not he was inside or outside. "Hey, um...wheere do I sleep?" he asked wondering where he would lie down to sleep in the clearing.

[iyoku]

Iyoku sighed as she entered her own cabin. "He up to something..." she muttered. She plopped onto her bed and stared at the ceiling.

[Yukiko Nova]

Nova pulled herself from the door way walking over to the couch near the fireplace. She started a nice warm fire and sat down on the couch. The fire flickered with immense power and heat as Nova pulled out her book. It was a bit tattered and warn but you could still read its pages. "Oh my god! She dies!" Nova belted out at the book "That’s the lamest ending ever plus he ends up with her sister." Nova placed the book down and picked up some marshmallows and a stick and began to make smores. She really liked them and while she was makeing the smores she had hot chocolate ready to drink. This was what she loved to do more then anything its what her and her sister used to do before she disappeared. Nova for some reason always forgot about her sister and that was the only memory she had of her beside the picture she kept with her always. Nova made herself a cup of hot chocolate and sat down with her 1st smore of the night.

[The Asko]

Asko has received the news of the leaving a bit late, as usual, and headed out as soon as possible. She had not been able to speak with Shiro yet and was a bit perturbed by this. However it was nothing unusual and she followed his wishes directly. She arrived at a small clearing with neat little cabins shortly and looked around. She noticed one that looked seemingly unnoccupied and entered it.

She looked around the room noticing it was entirely made of wood and nodded. She was used to log cabins, nothing new. She plopped down on the couch and peered around a bit more, waiting for Akago to arrive.

[Tidus Archean]

Suddenly, from out of the trees, came a Cloud ANBU. The ANBU had pink hair flowing from her head adn wore the ANBU's standard uniform. She wore the mask of the Owl, symbolizing her skill in Intelligence Gathering. Teh shinboi appeared to be in her early twenties to late teens and had a voice that would be very familiar to Tidus. "It's been a long time my student." She said as she landed in front of Tidus.

[The Asko]

(LMAO! ANBU with the wolf mask signify Torture and Interrogation Unit... might wanna fix that ^_^)

[shiraha]

Shiraha didn't say a word as Arata helped her down; she was depressed, controlled by another of those mood swings of hers. They had become even worse now, maybe a signal that something was going to happen soon. But, she had started to become more and more depressed every day...

---

The Hyuuga sat up carefully and moved to edge of the bed to get a chance to peek outside. Trees reminded her of Konoha's forest... Shiraha played nervously with her necklace, and close then her fist gently around a small, silvery heart.
Soon she started to feel dizzy. Shiraha sighed quietly and scanned the view that opened through the window once more before crawling under a blanket again and laying down. Even if she had wanted, she couldn't have stayed on any longer.
"I'm not feeling well today," she muttered quietly.
Without knocking, a young brown haired girl in black dress entered the room, carrying a tray with a cup of tea. She was sort of a servant who had followed Shiraha from their last 'home.' Although the moody princess didn't want company, words of this young woman had managed to bring her some comfort at times. Her name was Rosalie, and for some reason, she seemd to hold somekind of grudge against the opposite gender.
"Do you want to take your medicine now, Hyuuga-sama?" Rosalie answered softly after placing the tray on a night table, ignoring Arata.
"Yes, thank you. Oh, and bring something-"
The Hyuuga's sentence was cut off by a quiet wince of pain; she cringed and bit deep in her lip suddenly, cutting a wound with her fang.
Brown eyes slightly widened, Rosalie bent to examine the Hyuuga, and declared the result out loud.
"It's starting."
The servant hurried quickly to doorway and called others to help. Then she moved to Arata and started to push him out of the room, yelling loudly at him. "Get out of here," "This isn't meant for men's eyes."
Soon she got a whole bunch of servants to help her, and together they pushed they boy out and locked the door before hurrying to help the Hyuuga.

---

Even from outside the cabin it wasn't hard to guess what was happening insdie. Soon after kicking Arata out ,a man in white was guided to the room. But, it seemd that the Hyuuga had learnt something from her servant; over loud talk of the servants was heard a shout "Jyuuken," and next something crashed hard against the door. Couple seconds later a blonde servant helped the limping man out of the room and left to search for a woman doctor.

---

Many hours later Shiraha was finally alone in the room. The process itself had taken longer than usually, and as they had thought, it had ended up as a life-death situation. After couple extra operations and cleaning a doctor and couple servants had stayed in the room for a long time to make sure that she'd be fine.
Even now Shiraha felt her body shiver, mostly because of her weakness, but also cold; thin, white dress she wore now didn't keep her warm, and even a thick blanket didn't help. She had barely enough powers left to speak clearly, and although she was dead tired, the girl couldn't sleep.
She had seen only a glance of the boy he had brought to this world. The newborn was small, so the doctor moved him somewhere. The boy had already a tuft of black hair, and she simply knew that he'd have white Hyuuga eyes.
Even if they hadn't taken the baby awaym Shiraha doubted that she would have wanted to spend any more time with him, at least now. The situation where it all had began had nothing to do with love, she barely remebered anything else but a strong smell of alcohol. She still didn't know about her feelings for the baby's father. But on the other hand, the newborn was her blood, a Hyuuga...
Pain awoke the girl from her thoughts. She hadn't followed her breathing, Shiraha had inhaled too sharply.
At the Hyuuga's request the doctor had areed to do an extra opeartion, for she was a skilled medic. Shiraha was relieved now when she had got her own, slim body back. But although the doctor had managed to save her from scars, inside it still hurt.
Unable to do anything or rest, Shiraha laid quietly on the bed, listening at her breath and waiting.

[Tidus Archean]

((What's the tracking and intelligence gathering mask?))

[The Asko]

((Hmm... well, there isn't Tracking, but there is information retreival which is the owls ^_^))

[Tidus Archean]

((THanks ^_^))

Tidus looked at the ANBU but couldn't help but seem to recognize her. When she spoke, however, he instantly remembered who she was. "Ty Lee-Sensei!!" he screamed standing up and hugging her. "It's been a long time Tidus. My how you've grown." she said looking over how much Tidus grew during his travels. "I'll be right back." She said dissapeering in a cloud of smoke nad then reappearing a few minutes later dressed in her normal gear. "You're as radiant as ever." Tidus said smiling. "What are you doing here anyways?" She asked as they walked towards the cabin Shiro had designated for Tidus. "I'm not sure, I was kidnapped when I was brought here. Lord knows why." He replied as they entered the cabin. "So tell me, what happened on your journey?" She asked him as she sat down on his bed. Tidus then locked the door as he told her what had happened. He left out the part of him loving Koira for obvious reasons but mostly everything, he told happened.

[zichiro]

Zichiro followed the group as they finaly made it to the empty part of the forest with a small residence built there not one but four cabins, the group had scattered after they arrived entering their new little huts. He turned towords his brother who seemed to be signaling him to go and follow Nova, Zichiro looked at him and made a sigh one that meant 'alright I'm going' doing as told Zichiro entered the small wooden home and looked around looking at about every detail of the residence but not putting much of his sttention into the odd job, the Etsuko found Nova sitting enjoying a smore she had made on her own, he crept behind the couch and looked down at the blonde, "So this is your secret on mantaining your magnifasint figure, smores and what seems to be hot chocolate eh..?" He spoke teasingly following by his small smile and a soft chuckle.

[Yukiko Nova]

Nova looked baack at Zichiro "Yeah...and the secret to life is Love" Nova said with a bit of a giggle. "So why are you rooming with me stranger?" Nova said getting up and putting the smore down on the table. She turned around looking at him with a smile "O I have to tell you about the key I gave you...well sense every story starts out with a very boring start. Wherever I lived at the time I got that key they gave one to every girl and boy. The represented who you were. You know how everyone falls in love one time or another...well that key was suposed to be what you gave them. I had seen the keys traded off once before...there is a bright glow from the persons heart you are giving it to. Most of the time blue or green. It also means a marrage vow." Nova said looking down at the floor. "Thats why I thought afterword you wouldn't want to keep it because of that." Nova looked over near her door and saw a grand piano she slowly walked over to it and began to play a song.Very embaressed and afraid is all she felt at this moment. She really liked Zichiro and she didn't know of telling him about the key and what it ment made him feel he was being pushed to far. She was so worried about how we felt about her. But Nova had noticed his eyes had been so much soft from the first time they met but she was just worried..."What if this doesn't work out?" she thought to herself "What will I do then?" novas thoughts raced around in her head. Nova stopped and didn't think she just talked "How do you feel about me? Because I really like you."She seemed emotionless and motionless as she stared at the pinao. everything she felt just came out in words and she felt as if she really wanted to know but was so afraid to ask. Her hands in her lap as she stared at the black shiney piano in front of her. Nova felt as if she wanted to cry so badly...but no expression or feeling came from her as she sat. "Something about you makes me want to smile and be around you. The little voices in my head told me to give you that key. I know we are very different, but if you dont want to be with me thats fine ill act as if none of this happened." Nova felt like bawling as one small tear escaped from her right eye on his side facing tword him.

[etsukoshiro]

Arata looked up from his book, and then noticed the servant whom he despised the most come in. Moments later he found himself outside..alone..again.
Standing at the door as he listened slightly he began to feel hatred, his blood began to boil. Why was she doing this to him...spiking him...hurting him. He tried so hard, but nothing seemed to work.....
-----------
TIme passed and Arata found himself sleep by a river, waking up he slowly made his way to the cabin. Knocking at the door he waited to enter.

[shiraha]

Shiraha turned her head slightly and stared at the door as she heard the knocking. Somewhere in her mind, she was even a bit annoyed because of it; she had stared at the ceiling so long that she had began to find odd shapes from it. And then again, part of her wanted to be alone, and another part wished for just someone enter.
Slowly, she turned to look at the ceiling again. She waited for a minute, but she couldn't find the same symbols and pictures anymore.
"Come in," she said with a sigh, hoping that her voice would reach whoever stood behind the door.
Soon she became a little worried. What if there was someone who wanted to hurt her? She couldn't protect herself in this condition. Or maybe they brought the child back? In her mind, it didn't sound that tempting either.

[etsukoshiro]

Arata entered with a small smile, knowing she didn't want him here. He looked to his left and right and closed the door. Walking up beside Shira he sat at a chair next to her head.
"Why.." His voice pondered the stillness, the dark descreit sadness and misfortune.
"Why do you do this to me...." He looked to the ground, his eyes now cold and harsh, his blood boiling with a mixed passion of love and hate. "I told you before, many times That if you wanted to leave here I would risk my life to get you away...THIS is Your choice to stay Hyuuga Shiraha!" He growled through a scrunched face as he felt a heart ache, the pain never went away...and he didn't like the type of relationship they were in...where one side loved while the other side pretended. "How much more do you want from me?! I've already offered my freedom of choice for you! My Heart, my body and my happiness has been torn away by your sulking everyday! I vowed to give my life to save yours but to what avail? For you to despise me and treat me with hate and contempt...am..I..." Suddenly the tears flowed downwards unbearble, Arata taking a pause to let the words come between sobs. "Nothing...to you..am I just a pawn...some..person you use for protection..." His fists clutched gently as he continued to let the tears flow.

[shiraha]

The relief when she saw him come changed to a slight shock as he yelled at her. What had caused this? At first she didn't know what to do, what to say, but started then carefully.
"A, Arata-san... I'm so sorry, I didn't know you..."
Shiraha cut herself off and shook her head slightly. No, that wouldn't work.
"I don't hate you, this time I've spent here has just gathered too much to my heart... First months I just waited, and when I gave up, my heart broke. An experience like that, losing hope, would change anybody. And, in thease places we've been, none of them has felt like a home, not even a little. I'm in strange place, with strage people, only with you. So... I guess... I'm used to think that you're here no matter how I treat you. I'm not good with people, I'm selfish, moody and helpless. And, I don't know how to change... But I am gratefull for your help, I'm happy that there's someone. Thank you, Arata-san..."
Shiraha gathered all her strenght to lift her hand and touch the boy's cheek gently, and to try to dry his tears. But soon she had to pull her hand back, her powers couldn't hold it up any longer.
"I..." she mumbled a little unsurely, "I think... I'm homesick..."
She was a little nervous; right after finishing the sentece, she wanted to take it back. In this current stage, it might make him angry to hear something like that...
She had of course ignored all 'love' stuff from her speech, but hoped that Arata wouldn't notice, or care.

[etsukoshiro]

Arata sat there and continued to look in silence, for five minutes just waited. Then he sighed and closed his eyes. "I will take you to Konoha then...with Ichigo. If..If that would...make you happy again..." He was uncertain on how to feel...should he be upset? Or...? He silently knew if he took her back to Konoha he would be discarded and sent away..or even killed.. how would he be able to live..without her...

[shiraha]

Shiraha smiled carefully to him and nodded lightly. She wasn't sure if he was serious, maybe this was just somekind of test, but, she didn't care.
"If you could, it'd be the greatest gift you can give to me. I know there's not a place for you in the Hyuuga house, but, you could live somewhere close, if you wanted. Shiro doesn't need me anymore, since Zichiro-san is here. And Ichigo..."
Suddenly a thought hit her, hard. Ichigo. If her father would see the baby, both the mother and child would be killed, the father too if they found him. A child with anyone else but member of their clan would be a crime, but with Etsuko... Yes, they'd get killed.
When Shiraha turned her head a little to turn to stare at the ceiling again, she felt her necklace fall to a pillow beside her face; the lock was broken again.
Slowly, when she thought about the necklace, an idea was born in her head. A bad idea, but might work. As she thought about it, thought about someone, her heart started to ache, but she kept thinking about it.
She had already said much to Arata, and her next words might be the ones that'd make him snap, but still she tried.
"Arata-san...? I... I need to find Hyoshi-sama. I can't go to my father with you, but if I convinced him that Ichigo was a child of me and another Hyuuga..."
