It was about dark when Medusa had arrived at Aranche's Castle. She never rarely visited her sister unless it was vital. She walked to the big gray door of the castle and pushed them open. "What an unexpected visit Medusa-sama." said the small man Mosquito.

"Take me to Arachne now." ordered Medusa.

"Very well, follow me." said the small man. The walked down the dark candlelit halls until the reached a room with big web's and on one was the witch Arachne. "Ah Medusa what a surprise. So nice to see you." smiled the witch.

"Stop the foolishness. I'm here to discuss something rather important."

"Tell me Medusa what business to you have coming to my home?" inquired Arachne.

"I know you've become allies with the Kishin. My reason for coming is quite simple. All three of us have a common goal."

"That is?"

"We all wish to destroy Lord Death."

"Go on." said Arachne becoming more interested by the minute.

"Well." said Medusa with a smile. "We have something we can use to against him."

"And what may that be?" asked Arachne

"His son."

Chapter 1

"My god I'm wiped out." said Liz as they were nearing home. "That mission was hard work." She let a loud sigh of exhaustion.

"Don't worry, well be home soon. Death Manor is just around the corner." said Kidd with a weak smile.

He was rather exhausted himself. They'd hunted down a demon who was running around death city causing havoc. The hard

part was finding the demon.

Its was sun down when they'd reached Death Manor. The building was carved perfectly it was black and white with a big skull on the doors.

"Home sweet home." said Kid with a sigh of joy. He was happy every time he saw the symmetrical shape of his large home. Kid pushed the doors open and walked into the house foyer.

"Kiddy I'm hungry can you make me something to eat?" asked Patti. "

Of course." said Kid rubbing her blonde little head. "Liz you want anything?"

"Na I'm goanna hang out in the garden for a bit."

"Alright but be careful its getting dark."

"Yea. Yea." she said and with that walked down the right corridor.

Liz walked down to corridors to get to the garden. Shinagami's garden was about the largest Liz had ever seen. Liz sat on the cold ground next to Kidd's prize roses the were pale white and red. All beautiful. She loved the earthy smell. "Enjoying yourself." said a familiar voice. Liz looked up and smiled seeing Kid hover over her.

"Just a bit." she said with a smile.

"I love coming here to when I need a place to think or relax." Kid said as his eyes wandered over the many flowers.

"Liz stand up for a second I want to show you something you'll love." "What's that?" asked Liz

Kid grabbed Liz's hand and dragged her through the many plants. Holding his pale cold hands made Liz feel a little strange. They stopped in the middle of the garden. In center of the garden the was a gazebo. They walked onto it. In the gazebo was a single flower that had not bloomed yet.

"What is it?" asked Liz curiously. "Just wait." said Kid with soft smile.

Kid looked at his watch. It's time she thought she heard him say. Then she looked at the flower what she saw made her gasp. The flower started to bloom its petals were a dark purple that got lighter and lighter.

"It's called the flower of life and only blooms and midnight. Isn't it beautiful?" asked kid.

Liz's breath was gone she watched it bloom and then slowly cripple and die. Then form a new bud was on the flower.

"Beautiful." was all she could say. "I knew you'd enjoy that!" said Kidd beaming. "Thank you, Kid." said Liz.

Then she Leaned in and Kissed him on the cheek and skipped away. Kid was left there alone holding his cheek were her lips had met his skin.

Kid walked to his room on the second floor. Which was next to Liz's room and across from Patti's room. He walked in his room and threw his Black jacket he usually wore on the bed. Leaving him in his white long sleeve shirt and black pants.

He went into the bathroom and filled the sink with water. He began splashing his face. He then gently dabbed his face dry with a towel. When he looked up to see his reflection he was not alone. He began to tremble and then whispered, "Medusa."
