Yaten flinched when he saw the blood on Tsuki's knuckles.

"What the hell? What did you do!" she exclaimed, earning a smirk.

"Beat the shit out of a drunken bastard." The shadow senshi retorted, heading toward the bathroom.

Yaten sighed and glared after her, pinching the bridge of her nose before calling

"At least tell me you didn't kill him!"

"I didn't….Kenji didn't…Danny wanted to!" The shadow warrior called from behind the closed door.

Yaten could feel the anger coming from the other girl and just sighed.

"Great….Fan-fucking-tastic! My wife is a psyco…I have four kids I may have to explain a drunken Tsuki to and I pray to whatever gods are out there that Karunā doesn't trigger anything off!" star healer grumbled, sighing as she walked toward the kitchen.

Tsuki leaned against the shower stall, the hot water beating against her. She had consumed way too much liquor that night. It had become one of the problems that she had developed over the years after losing the kids; one that facing the past indirectly had triggered.

"Fuck…..Now I'm becoming like my frickin' bitch of a mother!" she growled, punching the walk before sitting down into the water, still fully clothed.

"I'm sorry. This is all my fault." Karunā whispered from the doorway, earning a sigh.

"Kid…Tsuki just is having one of her off days. It's not your fault." Yaten replied, patting the girl's shoulder as she walked by.

"Do me a favor though and go check on her. She won't yell at a kid."

Karunā was beyond nervous when Tsuki opened the door, dripping wet and looking tired.

"You shouldn't have…" The girl began, only to earn alight glare.

"Karunā…I was not letting him get away with burning you. You're just a damn kid, queen serenity won't have much to say about this…after all he won't know what hit him…and he's still alive." The shadow senshi retorted.

Karunā watched with wide eyes as the woman undressed herself, the mass of scars on the woman's back causing her to wince.

"Who's your Kaasan? I heard you muttering earlier." The teen asked, earning a smirk.

"Pluto…Setsuna. She basically took me under her wing as a kid." She answered, chuckling as she added

"Though I'm still reluctant to call her Mom."

Yaten relaxed as soon as she saw how calm that Tsuki was being, wondering just how it was that kids seemed to bring out a softer part of her.
