I'm Back and The Argument

Yoko and Kuronue were at the mansion they, their friends and loved ones had bought at least three years ago when they were hiding from the Dark Signs. Yoko and Kuronue though were not human but they had both graduated in a human school when the team had left for three years to train with their brothers and sisters. Yoko was a fox demon with a silver tail and silver fox ears on his head. He had long waist length silver hair and was about seven feet tall with golden orb eyes.

His partner Kuronue was a bat demon with black bat wings sprouting from his back and hair pulled back into a high ponytail with two stands of hair falling and framing his face hiding his long pointy ears a little. He also wore a black scarecrow hat and a pendant around his neck on a silver necklace. He never took it off unless he was trying to hypnotize someone. The pendant looked like a big golden teardrop with a blood red jewel in the center.

The demons were both master thieves and still were; only they wouldn't kill everything in sight like they used to. They would steal from the demons that did the most trouble. They would also steal slaves and bring the slaves back to where they had come from or let them be free. But when they weren't stealing they were at the mansion waiting for the day the Signs and their loved ones would return.

It just so happened that Yoko and Kuronue were waiting for the Signs that week because Nakada and Jennah the ones they had they had fallen in love with along with the other Signs where coming back. They were also getting ready to ask then a very important question. The demons were in the living room waiting for something to happen. Yoko was sitting on the couch he and Nakada had slept on when one night there was a thunderstorm. Kuronue was also sitting on the couch he had Jennah had fallen asleep on that very same night.

That night the door bell rang and Yoko stood up putting his necklace on Nakada had given him through a letter that made his tail disappear and turned his fox ears into human ears and his fangs became a normal size. He still looked like himself except for those miner changes. Kuronue also put his necklace on that Jennah had given him and his wings disappeared and his ears looked like normal sized ears but he stayed in the living room.

The fox went the door and when he opened it his eyes went wide when he saw Talia, Nakada's triplet sister, and the rest of the Signs as well. Talia wasn't alone though; beside her was a tall elf with blue eyes and long blond hair. Talia smiled, "Yoko this is Legolas he came with us from another world," he stepped a side and let everyone in. She stopped in front of Yoko and whispered in his ear, "If you want to know where Nakada is look in your room." She didn't have to say anymore as he ran up the stairs to his bedroom. Jessica did the same thing with Kuronue and he flew up the stairs after he had taken the necklace off.

Legolas looked at Talia, "What was that all about?"

Talia smiled, "Jennah and Nakada took Yoko and Kuronue to be there loved ones. They gave half of their heart crystal to them and it has been three years since they seen each other.

Legolas smiled as he placed his hand over his own heart, "I know how that feels," Talia showed the elf around the mansion while Kuronue and Yoko went to their bedrooms.

When Kuronue entered his room he saw a figure in a purple cloak her arms folded behind her back looking out at the window at the starry night sky. Kuronue couldn't feel any kind of energy come from the figure. It was like the person wasn't even there. The figure sighed and spoke in a voice that sounded familiar to Kuronue but was a lot more strong and sure, "It has been a long time Kuronue. It was longer for Nakada and I then for the others. I guessing it was the same for you?"

The figure didn't turn around but Kuronue walked up to her until he was right behind her. He took in a short breath and he could smell her scent perfectly. He sighed and smiled, "Yes it was hard and long. If it weren't for Yoko I wouldn't made it past the first week. Each hour seemed like an eternity that never wanted to end. That was one of the reasons why we stared stealing again. But we also wrote a lot more songs but they all seemed sad."

Jennah turned around and Kuronue saw she was smiling, "Yes but you don't carry the title of Ruthless Cutthroat Demon Thieves anymore do you?"

Kuronue nodded, "We try our best to steal with as little killing and blood shed as possible. We even stole some slaves and brought them back to where they had come from, let them go free or let them stay with us. That's not to say they didn't become slaves but our slaves have more rights and privileges then any normal one. Yoko even made an effort to try and say he was sorry to the girls he had rapped. Most of them forgave him like the first girl because they saw he had changed. But the others weren't as forgiving and couldn't see the change in him at all."

They were silent for a little while and then Jennah ran up to Kuronue and wrapped her arms around his neck and he wrapped his arms around her waist digging his head into her shoulder and taking in her scent as he folded his wings around her. She backed away from him a little and saw that his eyes were brimming with tears and so were hers. She placed her hand on the back of his head and pushed his face down and he obliged as he felt her lips against his. He kissed her back licking her lips and she gave him entrance without hesitation.

They parted for some air and Kuronue stroked her face gently fingering the purple circle on her for head and she giggled. He smiled and she took her cloak off as they began to go to the bed. Jennah took Kuronue's hat off and they lay down on the bed, "You haven't changed a bit Kuronue."

He smiled, "Not that much but I can bet you have changed a lot. Your voice proves it and I can't sense your energy at all. It is almost as if you are not here."

Jennah looked at him as they both settled under the covers, "I can easily fix that," she closed her eyes and Kuronue began to sense her energy and he knew she was with him as he wrapped his arms around her holding her close and never wanting to let go. Jennah wrapped one arm around Kuronue's back and placed her hand and head on his chest listening to his heartbeat. She sighed as she closed her eyes, "You don't know how many times I had to put myself to sleep with sleeping spells or potions. I always wanted to hold you and you hold me every night."

Kuronue held the girl closer, "Now that you are here and we are together I can. Before we go to sleep…I have to ask you something that you humans seem to love. I hope your answer will be yes." Kuronue got off the bed and Jennah sat on it with her legs over the side looking at Kuronue as he put his hand in his pocket. He seemed to fidget a little and went down on one knee holding a little ring box in front of him. He opened it up and said, "Jennah will you please marry me?"

Jennah stared at the ring that had a 6 kt diamond on it. She was speechless but then she gently took the box, smiled and wrapped her arms around Kuronue's neck, "YES! Of course I will!"

Kuronue smiled as he held Jennah close and took the ring out of its box and showed her what was engraved on the inside. I shall always love you Jennah my heart. And he placed it on her finger and she smiled as she kissed him with such happiness.

With Yoko

Yoko had reached his door and saw Kuronue go inside his own room. Yoko waited for a second looking at his door. He placed his hand on the doorknob and turned it opening the door. He looked inside and saw a figure in an ice blue cloak with their arms folded behind their back and not facing him like Jennah had done to Kuronue. The fox slowly walked up to her and placed his hand on their shoulder. The figure turned around and he saw Nakada standing there her sign shinning brightly with a worried look on her face. Yoko instantly wrapped his arms around her shoulders and held her close as she did the same. Neither on them wanting to let go, "Don't you ever, leave me again Nakada, please," he said his head in the crook of her shoulder.

Nakada stroked his hair and rubbed his ears a little making him purr, "I will never leave you Yoko…I love you to much."

Yoko smiled and drew back a little lifting her head up, "You don't know how much that means to me Nakada…because I don't know how much it means but I know it is a lot." He lowered his head and captured her lips with his and she didn't resist in the slightest as she allowed him entrance and he gladly took it. Yoko moved his hand to her neck and started tracing the mark with the tips of his finger he had given to her at least three years ago.

They broke apart for some air and Yoko looked down at her a smile on his face as he caressed her cheek. Then they heard Jennah in the other room shout, "YES!"

Nakada looked at the door along with Yoko and she asked, "What is that about?"

"Kuronue just asked Jennah to marry him and by the sounds of it she agreed," Yoko said reaching into his own pocket. (Little thing Yoko was wearing a pure white sweater and a pair of blue jeans with a hole in the back. Kuronue was wearing a pure black sweater with a paur of black pants. They don't where their demons clothes when they go to the mansion.) He looked at her, "Nakada," she looked at him, "We both have probably changed a lot and I know this rushing things a little and you just came back but," he got down on one knee and took a ring box from his pocket and opened it showing two diamonds nestled in a golden ring with a rose on one side of a diamond and a lilac on the other. Nakada looked at him wide eyed and her mouth slightly open, "Nakada will you please make me the happiest demon in all the worlds and marry me?"

Nakada stood there not knowing what to do and then she kneeled down with him and wrapped her arms around his neck holding him close, "Of course I'll marry you Yoko!" she said her chin on his shoulder and Yoko held her close as well and gently pushed her away for a second and placed the ring on her finger but first he showed her what was engraved on it. I will love you forever Nakada my heart and life and she smiled as he put it on her finger. When the ring was on he cupped Nakada's face and moved his thumb back and forth under her eye. He moved his face closer to hers and kissed her with all the happiness he had.

It was Nakada who broke the kiss and she caressed his cheek, "But Yoko before or after we get married we are going to have to do the Sign's mating ritual to prove that we are meant for each other and it can't be ignored." He moved some hair away from her face as he looked into her eyes.

He smiled and nodded, "I don't have to have a ritual to prove to me that we are meant for each other Nakada…I know we are. But since we have to do it all right. But I was thinking of doing the wedding day on the day you and I first met."

Nakada thought and looked at the ceiling while she still held Yoko around the neck, "Lets see that was July 14th. What day is it today?" she asked and Yoko smiled.

"March 14th, that should give us at least five months right, if you count this one?" Nakada smiled and nodded, "Well if you want we can try and make preparations for the wedding and do the ritual at the same time if that is possible."

Nakada looked like she was thinking for a second and shook her head but this time she didn't smile. She sighed and held Yoko close, "Yoko, a part of the Sign ritual is going to be very painful and if we aren't supposed to be together then you will die."

"Hey," he said softly, "I survived the heart crystal didn't I?"

"Yes but Yoko that was if we both loved each other not if we were meant for each other. The next step is to see if we are meant for each other and if you survive that the next step it easy but…"

Yoko silenced Nakada with putting his finger on her lips hushing her. Then he took her hand and gently placed it over his heart and pressed his hand firmly over hers. Even through the fabric Nakada could still feel all the love he had for her and the happiness he felt when he first found out she was in his room and when she had said she would marry him. Yoko looked at her and smiled, "You know how much I feel about you Nakada and I shouldn't have to do this if you do. I can feel it right here in my heart that we are supposed to be together and no one else can say or do anything to change my mind." She looked at him and smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck. He looked at her through the corner of his eye and smiled, "Why don't we do the next step tonight and if it is possible do the last one on our wedding day. I say possible because I want to know if we can do those things on the same day, after or during the wedding. I'm not saying I'm expecting to die tonight. I expect to live another day loving you."

Nakada looked at him and said in a serious voice, "Do you really want to do this Yoko?"

He smiled and cupped her face, "I am positive that I want to do this just tell me what to do."

Nakada began to glow as they stood up and she was dressed in a different outfit. Her head was wrapped up in an ice blue scarf and only her eyes could be seen, she was wearing ice blue shoes and pants. She was also wearing an ice blue sweatshirt that was tied tightly around her and ice blue gloves. She looked at him and spoke, "You have to take off this robe including the shoes by yourself without help from anything. I have to be asleep and that is when you will begin. If you wake me up you will have to start over if you want to still do this. If you touch my skin your skin will burn or be covered in ice. When you are done taking the robe off you will have to try and kiss me without touching me. The same thing happens to your skin if you do. The only way you are safe is if your lips touch mine in a kiss and your body will know what to do after that. If everything goes right then…you should be enveloped in great pain. We will both be going through it but it is you who will have to survive the night. If you don't…your half of the heart crystal will return to mine and become whole and I will have forgotten everything about you while you remain dead... and then disappear as if you never were and everyone will forget you. Do you still want to do this?"

Yoko stared at Nakada and couldn't believe what she had just said. He would be dead and she wouldn't remember anything about him like as if he was never there? He looked at Nakada and saw that she was scared of what the outcome might be. He looked at her and nodded, "Yes Nakada I still want to do this."

She slowly nodded her head, "You will know when I am asleep," they walked to the bed and Nakada lied down on top of the covers, on her back and closed her eyes.

When Yoko knew she was asleep he went to the other side of the bed and gently moved onto it trying not to disturb her. He first started taking her shoes off and did that with out any incident and gently lifted her hand as he tried to take the gloves off. When he had those off he began to work on her pants and slid them down. She began to stir but he moved his mouth to her ear and said things into it softly and she went back to sleep. He sighed and started to untie her shirt as carefully as he could. He moved his hands under her and noticed it was tied in the back as well. The wrapping around her waist had only been wrapping and came off to reveal the ties on her back, like a fancy, complicated tie in back dress. He gently turned her and began to undo the knots. When he was done of that he laid her on her back again and gently slid the shirt off. Then he began to undo the wrappings around her face still not touching her skin and then that was off.

He looked at her sleeping face and wanted to touch it but he didn't, remembering what Nakada had told him. He placed his hands on either side of her face while he lowered his head careful not to touch her as he closed his eyes and gently kissed her on the lips. He didn't know happened but he found himself holding her chin and tipping it up trying to get her to open her mouth and allow him entrance. He didn't feel any kind of pain and he smiled. Then Nakada's mouth opened but before he could enter it little balls of light came from Nakada's mouth and into Yoko's while he still kissed her. Yoko grimaced as he felt his whole body burst out into pain like a wild fire it was spreading from his head and down. You could easily see the white balls in his body moving around inside him.

There were six balls total and each one went to a different part of his body. One went to his head, one went to his chest, two went to either of his arms and the last two went to his legs. He wrapped his arms around torso and drew his legs up wrapping his tail around himself, as he became a ball of pain. He tried not to make a sound of pain as he clinched his teeth and eyes but he made a grunts at few times. He heard someone crying and he saw Nakada still lying straight only she was twitching as if in pain and tears were running down her cheeks.

Yoko struggled to get up a little and slowly crawled over to her. When he did he lay back down on the bed and wrapped his arms around her holding her close. He made an effort to try and reassure her but it was difficult with the pain he was going through as well. He stroked her hair as he held her close, "H-hush…Nakada. D-don't be afraid…I'm right…right h-here beside you and I will try to help y-you as much as I can..tell me what t-to d-do." Nakada seemed to here him as she wrapped her arms around him.

She mumbled something only he could hear, "Please…don't…l-leave…me."

Yoko held her close, "I won't leave you N-Nakada any time soon…I…I p-promise."

Before anyone could do anything they both fell unconscious due to the pain and went to sleep in each other's arms where the pain couldn't touch them but they yelled out in pain at times.


The next morning Nakada woke up and saw she was in someone's arms. She looked up and squinted her eyes at the person who was holding her. When she saw Yoko the first thing she thought was. Who is this person?

She tried to get away from him but Yoko held her tighter and said, "Don't leave me Nakada."

Her eyes instantly widened when she remembered everything last night and she held Yoko close again, "Don't worry Yoko I won't leave you." She laid her head against Yoko's chest and she could hear his heartbeat beating strongly. That was to close. Nakada thought as she held him closer, I almost completely forgot about him. Oh Lord thank you for saving him and showing me he is my true love! But then Nakada hesitated for a second. She had forgotten who Yoko was for a second. Did that happen to all of the Signs? Or was that something new as well for the Sign to forget and then remember the person who had joined them in the ritual? Was that supposed to mean that they weren't supposed to be together and no life was taken or did that always happen? Nakada held Yoko closer wanting it to be true that he was her true love but she had to be sure. She lifted her hand up and saw the ring he had given her for their engagement and remembered what was engraved on it.

Yoko stirred a little and opened his eyes and took a deep breath wincing at times, "Well I know I'm not dead," he joked and looked at Nakada caressing her cheek, "Are you all right?" he asked and she smiled a fake smile.

"Yes Yoko I'm fine. Thank you for being there…I heard your voice."

He smiled and kissed her gently on the lips. When they broke he laid his forehead on hers both of them with there eyes closed. He smiled a little and held her more protectively, "I would swim the largest sea to get to you if you were being hurt Nakada." He opened his eyes and looked at her and so did she and he continued to smile, "I knew we were meant to be together but I have a question. Why is it that Signs have to find their true love?"

Nakada closed her eyes and moved her head so it was against his chest and he laid his head on top of hers. She thought for a second about everything she had read, been told and learned, "It is important for a Sign to fall in love with their true love because if they don't then neither one will ever live happily. And if they want any children the children would die a few day's after birth if they aren't meant to be together."

Yoko looked at Nakada for a second, "You know I don't know why you were so worried about. Caralama was our daughter if all of that really did happen and we both loved each other as well. Sure Caralama was supposed to die a few day's after she was born but that was because April and Alfred weren't each other's true loves and we hadn't met yet. I mean we meet twice and we fall in love twice as well. Ya, it was a little harder this time because of some reasons, but we made it through all right." Nakada listened to Yoko and smiled because what he was saying was true but she still had to be sure. And as luck would have it she heard all of the parents drive into the driveway giving a good reason to change the subject. Yoko heard them to and groaned, "Oh no, Nakada before you think of anything about how your father and I react it's just I think he hates me."

Nakada smiled and giggled a little as she drew back and looked at him, "If we have any girls, my guess you will act the same way if they meet a boy. Because that is why my father is acting like that. He doesn't want me to grow up," Nakada giggled a little, "I was only sixteen when we started to confess how we feel about each other and he said he wanted me to do that kind of stuff when I was twenty-one or moved out." Yoko chuckled.

"Strange what can happen in a year isn't it?" he asked.

"No it is strange what can happen in a minute. Because in one minute Kelsey told us our parents were stolen and we began our journey here. That all happened in one minute and our meeting as well." Yoko looked at her and smiled but then he got a glint in his eyes that she didn't like, "Yoko what are you thinking?" she asked unsure if she wanted to know or not.

"Oh I was just wondering if you're still ticklish," and he had that evil smirk on his face as he began to tickle her and she laughed as she tickled him back.

Downstairs everyone heard Nakada laughing and so did the Rick, Nakada's father, who was not to pleased, "He had better not be doing anything to my daughter."

Talia smiled and shook her head as she snuggled closer to Legalos, "Rick they did the second step of the ritual last night and he is alive so that means he is her true love. And my guess is they won't do anything extreme until they are married or after the third and final step in the ritual. Actually they can do anything together after the second step because now their children if they want any wont have the chance of dieing. The final step is for him to have all the powers she possesses."

Just then Nakada and Yoko were halfway down the stairs and they heard Rick talking. They sat down close together and listened. Rick looked at Talia, "I surely hope your wrong that he is the true love of my daughter. There is nothing wrong with him on the contrary he is a very fine man…demon whatever. Probably better then most demons but I don't think it is fit a Light Sign who stands for everything that is good should fall in love with a demon. I mean he used to be a cutthroat thief for crying out loud! He murdered humans and demons left and right. And if what I hear is true he also rapped women during mating season or whenever he had a nightmare." Yoko looked down and his ears folded against his head. Nakada took his hand and smiled as she looked at him and cupped his face. He smiled a little as well but they continued to listen, Talia was talking now.

"That's right Rick he USED to be a cutthroat thief now he isn't. He stopped rapping women along time ago when he met Nakada and the only time he has nightmares is when he dreams about his torture."

Nakada looked at Yoko and he looked down, "Is that true? Do you really…" but she was interrupted by her father

"No but he is still a thief. Is that how he is going to support my daughter? Through stealing?" Yoko winced and Nakada sat on the same step he was and held him close wrapping her arms around his shoulders. She laid her head in the crook on his neck and he wrapped his arms around her laying his head on her head sometimes stroking her hair to comfort himself a little.

They heard Talia speak, "Rick he can also sing and play the guitar as well. My guess is the team can get back together and become The Thieves again. They were quite popular and could have gone far if it weren't for the Dark Signs and their training. Yes he does still steal but he only steals from the most ruthless demons and if he needs to yes he does kill them but only as a last resort. He also steals slaves and takes then back to where they came from, let them go or take them in as slaves. Let me tell you this his slaves and Kuronue's slaves have more privileges and rights then any other slave in demon world or human world."

"So what you are saying is that you think the way he steals is right?"

Nakada sighed rolled her eyes, "I've had about enough of this," she stood up and went down the stairs into the living room while Yoko was still sitting on the steps wondering what she was going to do. She had always been the shy type and rarely did anything irrational. He listened and heard her talk to her father, "Dad, will you please stop putting Yoko down like this! He is a thief so what? He is the King of Thieves and I am quite proud of him. Did you know that him being a silver fox demon he is very rare? And because of that I doubt he ever had it easy while growing up. He didn't chose to become a thief he just became one to survive. And if you ask me he survived quite well and he is trying to make up for his past mistakes. He knows he won't ever make up for all of them but he is trying to make up for the ones he can. If you were in his position you would do the same and I am sure of it. Yoko and I went through the second step of the ritual last night and he survived. I am glad he survived because even if my memory was erased I would still feel like a part of me died along with him and I wouldn't know what that was and no one would tell me because they would have forgotten about him to." Nakada sounded very angry and even Yoko was a little scared of her. He wondered how her father was holding up. Nakada took a deep breath and said a little more calmly, "So please dad, let up on Yoko a little and don't act like a Dark Sign with putting him down. He loves me and I love him there are no two ways about it."

Yoko smiled as he looked in the living room and sat up preparing to go and have a say and not let her fight his battles alone. When he went inside he saw Nakada's father looking like as if he had seen a ghost with Nakada standing in front of him. He walked up to her and wrapped his arm around Nakada, "I assure you Mr. Bates I will take care of Nakada in the best way I can. And if we have any children I will make sure they don't steal as well. Nakada is right I did have to steal to survive and I had to try and out run demon hunters who were after me because of my rarity." He looked at Nakada and she smiled as she held him close wrapping her arms around his waist looking up at him. He smiled as well as he wrapped both arms around her and looked at Rick, "I love her Mr. Bates and if I had died last night I would have only hoped that she was cared for by someone who could give her something that I overlooked or couldn't give her."

Rick looked at the couple and the bite marks they had given each other along time ago when it was mating season for Yoko. He could tell by the way they held each other that they did indeed love each other. He stood up and walked over to Yoko and extended his hand. Yoko looked at it a little while and then he took it. Rick smiled, "Well all I can say now I guess is welcome to the family."

Yoko smiled and nodded, "Thank you."

They let go and before they could do anything Jennah and Kuronue jumped from down stairs yelling, "DID WE MISS BREAKFAST YET?" Nakada sighed and chuckled as she moved her head back and forth so did Yoko.

"Hungry every hour," they both said at the same time and they looked at each other with a smile on their faces. They both went to the kitchen and had something to eat.


Later on that day Yoko talked to Nakada for a second, "Nakada, I want to take you somewhere but I want it to be a surprise so you are going to have to be blind folded." She looked at him funny but she nodded and closed her eyes. He wrapped a blindfold around her eyes and lead her somewhere. He stopped, "Okay, I am going to put a helmet on you okay?" She nodded and she felt him put a helmet over her head. He lead her to another thing and helped her onto what seemed a bike, "Okay I'm going to go behind you all right?" she nodded and he got on behind her holding her close.

She heard the door of the garage open and then the starting of a motorbike and she felt it moving at a fast pace. She smiled as she remembered all of the times, even when she was scared of Yoko, he would take her for a ride on his bike. He looked at her and smiled as well as he made sure she was safe.

A little while later he stopped the bike and pushed the lever down to hold it in place. Then he got off and helped Nakada off as well. They walked a little more with Yoko holding one hand and wrapping his arm around Nakada's shoulders.

He stopped and let go over her and she could feel his fingers trying to untie the blindfold. When the blindfold came off she opened her eyes and saw a fantastic view of a lake surrounded by trees except from the opening they had come from. She turned her head to Yoko and he smiled, "Do you like it? I was thinking we could get married here instead of a church and we could celebrate back at the house."

She wrapped her arms around his neck holding him close but made sure he could still breath, "I love it!" she said in a voice slightly higher then normal.

Yoko smiled and held her close laying his chin on her shoulder and leaning his head against hers as he purred softly into her ear, "I'm glad you like it."

Nakada sighed and held him close as she thought about this morning when she had forgot about him and she felt guilty for not telling him. She had decided to go to her other parents in Final Fantasy to talk about this. She looked at Yoko and she saw such love in his eyes that she couldn't help but to feel guilty a little bit but she carefully hid it. She smiled and then noticed a little mischief in his eyes, "I am guessing there is more that I should know? Or are you going to keep me in the dark and surprise me?"

Yoko smirked the smirk that always got him in and out of trouble, "You will have to wait and see. I just hope you don't mind the place I have picked out for us for our Honey Moon or rather places."

Nakada smiled and gently traced his face with her finger and said, "You aren't going to let me do that much are you?" Yoko shrugged, "Well if what ever you planned is as good as this then I can't wait!"

"I hope you think the same way," he said leading her back to the bike.


When they got back home Yoko said he had to do something and Nakada nodded. She watched him go and couldn't help but to feel guilty that she was keeping Yoko in the dark. She took a breath and made a world mirror in front of her other parents' house. She walked through and knocked on the door. Her mother Riane answered and a smile spread across her face, "Nakada!" she said wrapping her arms around her and so did Nakada. Riane broke away for a second holding Nakada's shoulders and looked her over, "Oh it is so nice to see you! What brings you here?" she asked as she lead Nakada into the house, "Laguna, Nakada is here!"

A man with long brown hair came down stairs with a smile on his face, "Nakada you haven't changed a bit. But you look a lot like your sister only your sister had emerald green eyes. So what brings you here?"

They sat at a table and Nakada told them everything. When she was done Laguna and Riane looked at each other and smiled, "Don't worry Nakada that happened to your father when he and I did the ritual. It is perfectly natural I don't know why but the only way that happens but- it always only way to rid you of the guilt is to tell Yoko. If you don't then you will always fill guilty and you also won't be true to him."

Nakada smiled and embraced both of her parents, "Thank you so much you don't know how much this means to me."

"Your our daughter Nakada," Laguna stated with a smiled.

"And even if you weren't we would still tell you," Riane held Nakada close and they said good-bye but not before Nakada had invited them to the wedding.

Nakada started looking around for Yoko everywhere when she had come back and she found him by the big pond throwing rocks into it. She walked over to him and sat down beside him smiling, "Is this what you were going to do?"

Yoko looked up at her startled but settled down, "No I was just thinking."

"May I ask what?"

He looked at her and cupped her face and kissed her. When he broke his face didn't change, "There is something wrong, isn't there?" he asked and she nodded.

"Sort of," she looked at the lake and sighed, "I didn't tell you about something this morning Yoko. Something happened when I woke up…I noticed I was in your arms but I didn't know who you were at first. But when I tried to get away you spoke to me and I remembered everything. At first I was so happy that you were alive but then I began to think that since I forgot about you I wondered if there was a new way to the Sign ritual. To not have someone die if they weren't really meant to be together but to live and the Sign have a brief moment of memory loss. When we came back from the lake I went to Final Fantasy to talk about it with my other parents. And they said that the same thing happened to them and they were still meant for each other. They said it happens every single time for a Sign. That's why I've been acting different…I was feeling guilty about not telling you."

Yoko looked at Nakada and turned her face to him and moved some hair away from her face and hooked his index finger under her chin, "Why didn't you just tell me in the first place? I wouldn't have been mad and I would have gone with you as well." Yoko wrapped his arms around her and held her close and she accepted the embrace happily.

"I guess I was scared that we might not be true lovers and I was also scared on how you would react."

Yoko backed away from her, "Don't you remember what I told you this morning? If we hadn't fallen for each other again then we wouldn't be here right now. I have done horrible and unthinkable things in my life and somehow you have managed to forgive me. You are the only person alive that I could think of that would forgive me and be proud of who I am and what I do."

Nakada looked at him and smiled, "Well there is a saying that say 'Love is blind' and we are living proof that it is true. Yoko the only reason why I forgive you and I am proud of you is because you know you have done wrong things in your past and now you are trying to make up for them. You went to the village where Kuronue brought the women you rapped and tried to say you are sorry. You now steal from people who are ruthless sometimes putting yourself in danger in doing so and you steal slaves and try to get them back home or give them a home where they carry the name "slave" but you don't treat them as such anymore. You have survived where other silver fox demons probably have not. Yoko I love you for that and many other reasons."

He smiled and held her close pressing her head to his chest and laying his head on hers as they looked out into the pond. Yoko closed his eyes and purred softly, "I love you so much Nakada and I will try to make sure no harm comes to you or our children if we have any and I'm sure we will."

Nakada smiled as she closed her eyes as she wrapped her arms around Yoko, "I love you so much too Yoko."
