A New Beginning

Chapter 1: Snow Storm Written by: Aspera Cream

Aspera-chan: Hi everybody!!!! I'm hoping to become a good writer! I'm already a good artist! ^.^ Well, enjoy!

Momiji snuggled up into her blanket, on her couch, her teeth chattering. The weather outside was vicious. The wind whipped making the windows shake, Snow came down in a heavy blizzard, and the sound and strike of lightning shattered the silence everywhere. She thought it was a little weird, even in the winter. She got up and threw some more logs, into the dying fire. Candles were lit all over the house so she could find her away around her house. Dew to the storm, her electricity was out, leaving the house in darkness, except what the candle illuminated. She climbed back onto the couch, more than a little worried of Kusanagi.

An hour passed and Momiji dead to the world, asleep peacefully in the warm comfort of her blanket. Outside Kusanagi was perched on his usual branch, freezing from the unexpected weather. His teeth chattered lightly and his arms were crossed trying to conserve as much body heat as possible. His eyelids fluttered and he tried to keep conscious, but it was just too much for his body in this weather. He tried to jump to the next tree, but tripped and fell into the cold and merciless snow. His last conscious sight was the door sliding open and Momiji's worried face.

Momiji woke with a start. She had heard something, but what was it? She climbed out of the safety of her blanket and walked swiftly to the back door. She slipped it open and poked her head, looking around her back yard closely, checking for any movement at all. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Kusanagi covered in snow. "Kusanagi!", she yelled shoving her way through the snow, as she reached him she slung his arm over her shoulder and dragged him back to the house. She shut the door, and she set his body to lean against the counter. She tried to stay awake, but the feeling to close her eyes and just sleep was overwhelming, and she felt her body going slack and she fell on the floor, her cheek pressed against the cold, tiled floor.

Kusanagi slowly opened his eyes and found himself inside Momiji's house. He looked around, and saw Momiji passed out on the floor, her body shaking, and her lips a shade of blue. 'She must have dragged me inside. Idiot!' He picked up her up, soaked clothes and all, and put her in the living room on the couch. He stripped her of her clothing, but didn't stop to take a look as he wrapped the blanket around her and placed a soft kiss on her forehead. He stripped of his clothing and threw them into the dryer. Then he went into the bathroom and took a shower. Afterwards he found some spare clothes and slipped into them, and into the living room, noticing Momiji sleeping peacefully, and she seemed not to be cold anymore.

Kusanagi brushed a curl of her chestnut hair away from her face, and placed a soft kiss on her forehead, before lying down next to the couch. He sighed softly, before slipping into a untroubled sleep. 'Be well, Momiji. Please don't get sick.'
