Chapter one: A Destined Meeting
Kadaj walks through Funbari Hill while trying to control his anger. Up in the Lifestream, Yazoo and Loz thought it would be funny if they start calling him "Little Sephiroth". Zack told him to calm down; his brothers were just playing. Finally, Kadaj got so angry that he split open Loz's head. While Aerith was healing Loz, Zack separated Kadaj from the others. Since Kadaj felt as though he was being wrongfully punished, he left the Lifestream and went to the living world, specifically Funbari Hill. The flowers at this place are beautiful this time of year.
As he is walking through a field, he sees a young woman picking flowers. Kadaj, afraid that the girl might see him, hides behind the tree closest to him. He peers behind tree, and sees that the girl has pink hair just beneath her shoulders. She was wearing a white kimono covered with red wildflowers. The young woman's demeanor was very tired-looking as she picked the flowers. All of a sudden, two spirits animals appear before the girl. One of the animals looks like a small, anorexic fox, and the other is a fat, raccoon-like animal. The girl looks up, startled. Kadaj is able to get a glance at her bright red eyes. Suddenly, it seems as though she notices him. Kadaj quickly hides completely behind the tree.

Tamao was hoping to find Hana outside, but to no avail. Even though his frequent disappearances have worn the sixteen-year old out, she is honored that Master Yoh and Lady Anna have entrusted her with their son. Rather than looking for him, she decided to pick flowers and wait for him to come back. She was picking flowers for about fifteen minutes before Ponchi and Conchi pop up and startle her. "Hey Tama-chan" smirks Conchi.
"Waiting for the Asakura brat?" giggles Ponchi.
Tamao gasps as Ponchi and Conchi burst into laughter. "Young Master Hana is not a…" Tamao starts, but then she stops mid-sentence.
"What's up with you, Tama-chan?" asks Conchi.
Tamao shakes her head. "Nothing" she states. Tamao, however, was looking at a tree a few meters away from them. She could have sworn that she saw a boy behind it. He had metallic silver hair and the brightest emerald green eyes she had ever seen. Tamao wish the boy would have come over to say hello, but by now he is probably gone. She sighs and continues to pick flowers.

Kadaj squeezes his body so none of his body could be seen behind the tree. He had a feeling that the girl saw him. "What'cha doing?" says a voice coming from the grass.
Kadaj jumps up and looks down at a boy lying in the grass. The boy has long, wild dark blond hair and sleepy brown eyes. The boy was wearing black overalls and sandals. "I'm not doing anything" Kadaj says quickly.
Then, the boy observes him. "You're a very strange and powerful spirit" the boy says, "Wanna be my spirit partner?"
"Spirit partner?" Kadaj asks.
"I'm a shaman" states the boy, "The only problem is that I don't have a spirit partner to integrate with. Basically, integration is when you come into my body, and I use your power to fight."
"No" says Kadaj flatly.
"Why?" asks the boy.
"I don't feel like it" says Kadaj.
"I not leaving until you become my partner."
Kadaj decides to leave the boy. All of a sudden, Kadaj hears behind him "Oh, I know what you were doing", then "Tama-san!"
Kadaj froze. He wants to go, but he also wants to see the girl. He turns around to see the girl running to the exactly where they were.

"Young Master Hana!" shouts Tamao as she walks up to where the boy was lying, "You had me scared to death!"
"Don't call me young master, Tama-san!" shouts Hana, "Just call me Hana!"
"Who is this?" asks Tamao. She was looking dead into the emerald eyes of the silver-haired boy she had seen before. It was surprising; his face was hard like a soldier, but soft like a child.
"Oh," says Hana, "This is my new spirit partner!"
"Really?" Tamao asks the boy.
The young man hesitates at first. Then he says "Yes. My name is Kadaj."
"Please to meet you!" says Tamao as she grabs Kadaj's hand, "My name is Tamao." Suddenly, she looks up at the twilight sky. "Oh my! It's time to go home!"
"Yeah" says Hana as he grabs Tamao's hand "I'm tired and hunger anyway."
As the two are walking off, Tamao notices that Kadaj is still under the tree. "Are you coming?" she asks sweetly.
"Oh yeah" says Kadaj before he follows them.

Kadaj has no idea what he has gotten himself into. He says no at first, but then Tamao came. She was more beautiful close than she was far away. She had a sweet smile that told you that everything would be okay. Suddenly, Kadaj shakes his head. He only agreed to be Hana's spirit partner for three reasons: Loz and Yazoo pissed him off, he was getting bored with the Lifestream, and the integration thing sounded really interesting. Kadaj smiles and follows the two back to their house.

This is my first romance! I really don't like writing romances because they turn out mushy and corny. I hope you like it though. Please read and review!
