Blade Brothers
Author: Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been working and the floppy drive in my 'rents computer doesn't work. Thanks for the reviews so far and hope u like this chapter. Thanks also to Brainiac5 for pointing out that I mis-spelled Sensei. I only own Rosalyn. Hope time change notes prevents any confusion, got the idea from Shadow, who uses them in fic Love Me, Protect Me. Very good read.
Snake Eyes ignored the eyes that were glaring daggers at his back. Since Lin had joined the team not very long ago, he had gotten used to it. Storm Shadow had ignored her from the start while Jynx returned the woman's glares. Komakura, on the other hand, couldn't keep his tongue behind his teeth for very long around her. He and Lin already had several heated arguments which only ended when someone dragged him away from her. Getting up, the grey clad ninja went in search of Duke.
He found him in the conferance room of the Rocc talking with Spirit. Billy swivel-ed his head as he walked in. "Snake Eyes." Spirit said, nodding to him.
"Spirit. Duke, do you have a minute or two?" he asked.
The blonde looked at the man with who shrugged and said, "I'll leave you."
"You can stay." the ninja told him.
"What's up?" Duke asked.
"I want to go back to Japan, there's someone I need to see there. And I want to take Storm Shadow with me." he said.
"Just Storm Shadow?" Duke asked curiously.
"Yes. The last time I visited her was right after he was brainwashed by Cobra. She'll be glad to know he's safe." Snake Eyes admited. Duke raised an eyebrow at the mention of a woman.
"I'm assuming that you haven't told Jynx or Komakura yet." the blonde said.
"Not yet. They won't be happy when we leave them but they'll be in good company." he told him. Spirit stared at him, reading his eyes.
Duke stepped up to him and said, "Be careful and come back soon."
"I will. Thank you." he whispered, turning on his heel and leaving.
A few days later, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow stepped out of a military plane in Kyoto. "Are you sure she is still here brother?" the hazel eyed ninja asked.
"Yes. I've kept contact with her." he assured him.
"Why did you not want to bring Komakura and Jynx?" Storm Shadow whispered, keeping close to his brother.
"I didn't want either of them bombarding us with questions. Not here at least." Snake Eyes explained.
"I see." he said as they paused to watch Sakura petals float to the ground.
"I stood with her in this very place one evening when I came back and watched this same sight." the blonde whispered.
"I'm sure she was breath taking." Storm Shadow said. Snake Eyes nodded.

"There you go. Just be careful from now okay."
"Thanks Miss Rose." A young boy on roller blades skated off as a young woman stood up. She raised a hand to shield her eyes from the sun.
"Still working in an herbalist's shop even though you have a Ph.D?" Turning her head she saw two young men: one with blonde hair and blue eyes with a small scar under one eye; the other with hazel eyes and brown hair.
"Toya. Yukito." she gasped as she reconized them. A second later she hugged Yukito tightly.
"How are you Rosalyn?" he asked.
Rosalyn stared up into his blue eyes and asked, "How many times do I have to ask you to call me Rose?" He kissed her on the mouth gently. Toya rolled his hazel eyes and cleared his throat. "He's not still working for Cobra is he?" Rose whispered.
"No, he's not. Go see him." Yukito told her.
"Welcome back Toya." she said, hugging him.
"Forgive me for worrying you." he apologized.
"It's okay." she told him.
Place/Time Switch
Many hours later Toya was asleep while Rose and Yukito sat outside. "I'm so glad he's alright. It seems like you had quite a few close calls though." Rose sighed.
Yukito smiled and whispered, "So am I. Those days just after he was captured and brainwashed were the hardest for me." A few seconds of silence hung over them until she laughed.
"I think it's so strange that his codename is Storm Shadow but you wear grey and black. Your codename is Snake Eyes and his eyes are hazel." she said.
"It's amusing to see how people react when they realize that same thing." he said.
"I'm sure." she whispered. He turned his head to look at her. She was beautiful: petite, short with almond shaped dark brown eyes and auburn hair in a bun. She wore a black kimono with a phoenix on it.
"Rose?" he asked.
"Hmm?" she murmured.
"Come back to America with us." he said. She stared at him, speechless.
Author: Cliffhanger! Sort of. I like using them because it gives people something to look forward to. Hope you like Ninja Enchantress; you got ur OCxSnake Eyes. I took the names Toya and Yukito from my Card Captor Sakura graphic novels. If you don't know/remember: Yukito is the character who is also Yue. Toya is the main character Sakura's big brother. Sakura means cherry blossom, but I hope people know that. Please R&R, will update when I can.
