**I don't own Blue Seed, I just wish I did
::Mislead Love::


Chapter One

It was summer and Tokyo bloomed with cherry blossoms. The sun caressed the city with its milky glow as people walked the busy sidewalks to their destinations. The TAC crew was busy as well. They buzzed all around the offices searching for the information on the new Arigami structures that assembled outside of town.

"Mr. Kunikida, here's the latest information." Yaegashi stated handing him a stack of papers.
"Good work, Yaegashi." He replied. "Is Momiji back from the farmer's market?"
"No, sir. I'll tell you hen she does though." He said.
"Ok, get back to work." Kunikida said and started to read the paper work Yaegashi left on his desk.

At The Farmer's Market….

The flower stand caught Momiji's attention. She loved the beautiful variety of the colors and fragrances. Each kind was different, just like her. She was different from everyone else. She was the Kushinada. She had the power to destroy the Arigami, if she was sacrificed. But, she was promised that she would always be protected from that happening.

"May I help you miss?" The owner of the stand asked her.
"No, that's ok." She said with a smile. "Thanks anyway."
"Here." A guy said handing Momiji a rose. "I want you to have it." He smiled and gave money to the owner.
"Thanks, but I can't accept this." She said, trying to hand him back the flower.
"No." He replied, putting it in her hand. "The rose is a symbol of love and beauty. And you are very beautiful, so you deserve it."

Momiji blushed with ten shades of red. "Well, thank you."

"Your welcome." He replied and kissed her hand. "Does the beauty have a name?"
"It's Momiji." She replied. "What's yours?"
"I am Zahi."
"It's nice to meet you, Zahi. But, I'm afraid I have to go."
"Will I ever meet you again?"
"Umm…." She stuttered, biting her lower lip.
"How about you meet me in the park at 2:00 this afternoon?
"Sure. I'll see you there." She accepted. "Goodbye."
"Ok. I'll be my the fountain that's by the field of flowers."
"Alright."
"Bye." He said.

She walked away with a smile engraved on her face. Why is she feeling this way? She loves Kusanagi! But, then he didn't like her in that way. He still loved Kaede. And Momiji thought she could never compare to Kaede with her looks and brains, and not to mention gracefulness. But Momiji had a quality that Kaede would never have. Momiji loves Tokyo and the earth the way it is. Kaede hated it, basically she just hated humans.

Momiji arrived at the TAC building, a half an hour later. She decided to take the stairs instead of the elevator, she didn't feel like it to wait for it to reach the bottom level. And it would give her time to think over meeting Zahi.

He was handsome with golden-blonde hair. He had eyes that were bluer then the ocean. His voice was soft and smooth when he spoke. And his skin was the color of hot chocolate, maybe lighter. She could still feel his lips on her hand.

Momiji put the rose to her nose and smelled the pretty aroma. She felt happiness and love in the scent. "The rose if the symbol of love, and beauty." She smiled to herself.

She started up the stairs and opened the door to the main office. She walked in and sat on the chair in front of Mr. Kunikida's desk.

"Your back Momiji?" He said with a smile. "Did you get what I asked for?"
"Yep." She replied, putting the bag of chips and cans of soda on his desk.
"Thank you." He replied. "So, what are you going to do today?" He opened he bag of chips and shoved chips in hi mouth.
"Umm… I think I may go to the park." She replied, blushing.
"That sounds nice." He replied.
"I think I'm going to go now, is that ok?" She asked, anxious to leave.
"Sure, go ahead." He replied.

Momiji jumped out of her chair and ran down the steps and then out of the building. She was so excited to see him again, even though he was a complete stranger she felt like she knew him in some way. Maybe they knew each other in their past lives?

She got to the park and walked to the fountain. The fountain had porcelain figures of fairies and elves. She sat on the bench and awaited his arrival, when someone called out her name.

"Hey Momiji!" The voice shouted.

She turned around and her mouth dropped to the ground.
