The dance was going off without a hitch.The happy couple enjoyed a few waltzes and talked with friends like they were in high school.I on the other hand preffered to be alone for the night.While everyone danced and drank the night away I had snuck away to the balcony to watch the sky.
"Rei where are you?"asked Nibi looking around for me.
She was the one who drug me here after I insisted to rest up from my trip back home.This had been her way of punishing me for not calling home for so long.I played a tune on a flute our mother gave me when we were young that got her attention.
"There you are."she said stepping outside.
She was wearing a snow white ball gown that used to belong to mother.
"Why aren't you dancing or talking with anyone?"she asked stepping towards me.
"Don't come any closer."I said turning away from her,"You know how that dress makes me feel."
"But Rei-"she said before I stopped her.
"You also know I don't fit in well when it comes to parties."I said looking down at the flute in my hand,"The reason I hate this one is because there are to many new faces."
I played a small tune on the flute before she spoke again.
"Come on its not that bad."she said smiling,"Besides you need to meet new people."
"Why so I can get my heart broken again by someone I love?"I asked in a painful tone.
Her eyes dropped when I said that.
"Rei I'm just trying to help you mkae good memories with new friends."she said stepping towards me.
"I SAID STAY BACK."I yelled.
My voice caught the attention off the party.
"Rei,I-"she said before I interupted.
"If you want to help then help me by leaving me to wallow in my own loneliness."I said,"I never asked anyone to help me."
"Hey don't talk to your family like that."said Ichibi.
"Stay out of this you worthless sand rat."I said glaring at him.
He clenched his fist retaining his self-control.
"I'm out of here."I said walking away towards the door.
"Is this the person Miyu fell in love with?"said Kyuubi.
A shock went through my body at the mention of her name.Miyu was an old love of mine who died from an illness sometime before I left.She was the whole reason I never returned.Instantly I rared back and punched Kyuubi square in the face.
"What was that for?"he asked holding his face.
"NEVER MENTION HER NAME LIKE THAT AGAIN!"I yelled,"NONE OF YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO SPEAK OF HER!"
When I finally snapped back I turned ran straight through the door.Who was I kidding coming back to this place.It just wasn't home without her here anymore.
This is another picture of Chiyoko (me). And this time with a little puppy. The background of this picture goes like this:
Chiyoko's POV:
I was all alone. It had pasted 4 days since that incident with her parents. I was sleeping in her cardboard box until I heard a little puppy screech in pain. It woke me up and I scurried to follow the dreadful noise. When I reached the end of the noise, I found a human beating a little husky dog.
"hehe you look pathetic", The boy said. He looked like a punk, wearing all black and what not. The dog tried to get up but then the human kicked it down again. "This is what you get for chewing up my shoe!" As I watched in horror, the husky took a glance at me. He was covered with bruises and blood. It broght tears to my eyes as i remembered what happened to me. His eyes were so beautiful... but very sad. "Please run, miss... please run...", it said. I shook my head at the command. I couldnt refuse. I cant stand to see an innocent animal getting beat up like that... especially after what ive been through. I ran to the human, with growls, and jumped at him. The human fell collasped as I bit him up. After 2 minutes up ripping up, he throw me off and ran as fast as he can out of the alley-way. I walked to the husky with a smile on my face. He took a last glance at me and then fainted. Is it my tails, I thought to myself. I put him on back, although he was bigger than me, and carried him to my cardboard box.
Hideki's POV:
Stupid boy. I guess i was at the wrong place at the wrong time. I didnt know what he was talking about, telling me that i chew up his shoe. I don't even know him. "This is what you get for chewing up my shoe!", he yelled as he kicked me into a bloody pulp. As he was kicking me, I saw a beautiful dog staring at me in horror. I couldnt stand to see her beautiful face all horrified. "Please run, miss... please run...", I told her. She shook her head. Her tears were like sparkles. I had to turn the other way. When I turned back, all I saw was the dog jumping at the boy. Then I saw those 7 tails.... I had never seen a 7 tailed pup. It was amazing. After the boy ran from the dog, I was proud. To be saved by a beautiful maiden, I thought to myself. I smiled her way and then fainted out of pain.
Chiyoko's POV:
It was morning. I was next to him, trying to keep him warm as my tails and my body was next to his. He is so warm, I thought to myself, cuddling him up some more. He woke up.
"where... where am I...", he said. He looked around and noticed my face. "Good morning", I greeted him. He blushed and then smiled. "Why good morning to you, as well", he said so politely. He got up and stretch. He was so much shorter when he was lying down, I thought to myself. After he caught me staring at him., he smiled and said, "i believe you are the maiden who saved my life." "Maiden...?", I repeated the words. He took a bow. "Thank you so much. My name is Hideki. And you are?", he said to me. "My name is Chiyoko", I told him as my tails were wagging. He noticed my 7 tails and then I hid them quickly. "Gomen nasai (Im sorry)", I told him, embarresed. "Its ok, Chiyoko. I dont mind your 7 tails at at", he said to me and winked. I looked up on him and smiled so happily. "That's means you are not a dog, are you", he asked me. I shook my head. "I am an arctic wolf biju", I confessed. "Thats fine with me", He said.
My stomached growled. I wa embarresed when Hideki heard it. "Oh so you are hungry?", He asked. I nodded. "I hadnt eatten in 19 weeks." He was shocked, but not that much because he knew that i was a biju. "Lets get us something to eat", He said. I looked over to the corner of a trash can and saw a rat. He caught me staring at the rat and said "There it is... lunch." He then grabbed the rat by the neck and killed it. He tossed me the rat. "There you go", he said. Am I suppose to eat this, I thought to myself, looking disgusted... but I was hundry so I ate i n one bite and... it didnt taste that bad. "YUM!!", I yelled. He grinned.
2 days passed and we had so much fun together. Played tag, sniffed each other's butt (for fun), ran around the whole city stealing food. It was the best 2 days I ever had.
We finally went back home (the cardboard box) and was laughing together, falling on the floor. Our head touched one another as we looked at the stars. "Well I had fun today.....", he said to me. He looked up and caught me being sad. I was thinking about my mom and dad. "What is wrong Chiyoko", he frowned. We both sat up and I told him about the incident with my parents. "Oh...", he said. After I told him, we heard a wierd sound. I was freaked out. When I looked at him, his eyes were serious. "Listen, I have to go...", he told me. I got up and argued. "WHAT?! I TOLD YOU WHAT HAPPENED TO ME A FEW DAYS AGO AND YOU ARE JUST GOING TO LEAVE ME HERE? WHY? WHAT IS YO-" I stopped talking and noticed he was staring at me with his sad eyes... the eyes i couldnt stand seeing. My eyes were full with tears and then it all flowed down... non stop. "Dont leave me all alone. Hideki.. dont leave me...", I begged. He walked up to me and licked me on the cheeck(its a kiss). "Chiyoko, I love you... you know that I wont leave you for anything.... but this is important. Ill see you again. I promised." I rubbed my head against his. He pushed me off, licked me on the lips and ran. I sat there... tears flowing nonstop...
