Chapter 1
They were on their way home from a very exciting night, it was the night of their second anniversary and they enjoyed the evening since they had alot to celebrate especially since they had a child on the way, they had dinner at a famous french restaurant downtown. Before entering a massive steel gate which led to their mansion, Ikuto pulled his wife Amu into a deep passionate kiss, but it was disrupted by a blood curdling scream from the alley up ahead. Ikuto and Amu saw three men chasing a little girl roughly around the age of five. Ikuto ran up to the guys beating them to a bloody pulp while Amu secured the whimpering child into her arms. The child was shaking uncontrollably mumbling something about wanting her mama. Ikuto quickly shoved the girls inside gently, Amu sat the girl on the counter and proceeded to wiped the dirt off her face.
"What were you doing out this time of night?" Amu asked gently.
The young girl hung her head so her brown hair covered her eyes then she lunged herself at Amu crying, "Mama and I were running away from the scary men but they caught her and killed her and papa too...then they came after me!"
Amu felt sorry for her and gave her a hug to reassure her, she noticed a gold name band on her right wrist marked 'Kichona' and smiled.
"Hey Kichona how about you and I take a bath while Ikuto goes shopping for new clothes okay?" Amu's voice rang throughout the mansion. Ikuto's ears perked up at the mention of his name, he was in the music room tuning his violin while his chara Yoru was playing with Amu's charas, Ran, Miki, Su and Dia. Amu and Kichona entered the room wrapped in towels. "Ikuto do mind going to shop for clothes for Kichona please?" she asked, Ikuto got up and shrugged "Sure thing Amu...whatever you want." then he left the house.

Ikuto came back thirty minutes later with a bag full of clothes and necessities for their little visitor.
"Amu I'm back!" he shouted, not hearing a response he set the bags in the guest room and went upstairs to search for the girls, not finding them he got a bit worried so he searched downstairs until he found them in the second guest room which was meant for the baby. It was painted a midnight blue color and was very spacious, in the left comer was the crib and on the opposite side there was a drawer filled with unisex clothes since they didn't know the gender yet, and next to a closet was a changing table decorated with stars and moons. Amu was sitting in a chair telling Kichona about the baby, it was clear they didn't notice Ikuto's presence, he walked up to them and placed his hands on her shoulder, it frightened her but she relaxed once she saw who it was.
"Ikuto...Amu...since you guys are gonna have a baby are going to send me a way?" Kichona asked in a sad tone. The couple looked at each other then at the young girl, the smiled warmly at her.
"Why would you say that?...I don't have a problem with you staying with us, Ikuto do you have a problem?" she asked, Ikuto shook his head and lifted her up.
"The only place you're going is to bed so lets go." He stated, he took her too her room with Amu closely behind. After they tucked her in they went to their room to get some sleep themselves.
