As Youko walked to the throne room she recalled what Keiki had told her.
*Flashback*
He knocked on her chamber doors. She allowed him in and he began to tell her what had brought he there. "The grades have found two taika on the edge of the Blue Sea. A man and woman." He continued. "They are here to see there fate."
*End of flashback*
As she slowed down at the side doors to the throne room she slowed down her breathing. With Keiki behind her she entered. She walked with her head held high and with respect. (As the Queen/King of Kei should.) As she walked to her throne she could see the man and woman out of the corner off her eye. The man was tall and had black hair and brown eyes. (A/N:What I think) Wall the woman was a little shorter then the man. She had brown eyes and short hair. 'No. It can't be! It can't be them!' She thought. As she turned to face her court and the taika. She stopped when she saw who the taika were. Keiki had never seen his queen so frightened and, well terrified. Not even when she was being attacked or someone or something trying to kill her. She was frozen with fear. The man's face turned to rage wall the woman's to horror. Youko had hoped that this people wern't who she thought them to be. She was wrong. Keiki saw that she might run. And he was right. She took off running out the side doors and she didn't care who saw. Like she didn't care who saw her cry as she ran. She ran down the hall as fast as she could. She reched her chamber and slammed the door behind herself.
*Back on the throne room*
Keiki saw as a tier ran down his queen's cheek. He was aboit to take a step towards her, but she burst out the room. He ran after her but only got three feet outside the door. She was running to fast for him to chase her. He went back in and looked at the taika. The man took one steep tourts the thrown and was stopped by five guards. "Leave us." Keiki said to the court. "Why?" Pipped up one of the ministers. "LEAVE US EMEDENTLY!" Keiki shouted angrily. The court got up and left the room. He looked at the guards. They left as well. "You are Ritsuko Nakajima and Masashi Nakajima, correct?" He asked. He look the same, but his voice sounded like he didn't care who they were they just made his queen cry. "FINALLY! Someone that we can understand!" The man shouted. "Y-yes we are." The woman replied. "Give me our daughter back now!" Masashi yelled at Keiki. "No. If her highness had wished to speak with the two of you she would of, but she clearly did not." Keiki stated. "Why you little...! We will not stand to see our daughter with someone like you!" For once Keiki wanted to kill someone. The only two thing stopping him was the blood because he couldn't stand the site or smell of it. No kirin could. And the second was Youko. He didn't know how she would react. Then he felt a blade to his neak, but it wasn't there. He took off as fast as he could. He ran past thethe court and guards out side the door. Down three hallways and finally to Youko's room. He tried the doornobes. They wouldn't move. He banged his fist against the door and shouted "YOKO! YOUKO OPEN THE DOOR!" She didn't answer. The cold blade went closer to his neck, untill he could sell blood on the other side of the door. He felt wouse, but didn't care. He called out shirei and told them to break the door down. Once the door was gone, what he saw was horrific. Youko was laying on the floor with a pool of blood under her and all over herself, mostly on her neck. The blade was in her right hand. He ran over and checked to see if she was breathing. She was, barley. He heard foot steeps. The guard's were coming. The smell of blood was to much for him to handly. His vision darned and he passed out.
