Tenshi woke up alone and saddened. He could feel the gap between him, and his closest friend and lover growing with every word left unsaid. Things had spiraled downwards since he had returned from the ceremony. Tenkei had asked a lot of unwanted questions about what had happened in the two weeks he had disappeared. The gap had grown out of the betrayal of Tenkei's trust over his eyes. Now, he couldn't even face her to tell her about the forbidden eyes. How he had suffered….and why he had attacked her when he got home.

He turned in bed, the night keeping him awake. He stepped out of bed lightly, and headed to the forest to return to a favorite pastime. He jumped to the first tree and then tried to activate his first wolf cry, and found it worked. And then it hit him…a wave of nausea and he fell to his knees, swaying on the branch. Several minutes passed before he was able to continue to the nearest tree. The Half Wolf Cry was still activated, but stronger and more importantly took no strength from him. This is strange. He took off at a break neck pace again, heading further into the woods, enjoying the smell and sounds of nighttime. He raced onto the river and followed it for a mile before a shuriken caught his hand, flipping him into the air. The shuriken dragged his hand, pinning it to a nearby tree. What! How? He reached for the shuriken to pull it out, only for a perfume to fill the air nearby and a beautiful angel to appear.

"Tenshi…Awww. It's been awhile since I've been able to play with you," she said, in a low whisper. She brushed his hair out of his face and rubbed her hand up and down the front of his crotch.

"Shinase?" Tenshi asked, almost gasping it out.

"How sweet! You remember my name…I am impressed." She continued to play with the front of his pants and pressed against him.

"I really missed you…" she continued on, ignoring the pleas that started to pour out of Tenshi's mouth. "You and I will be a great couple. I love you, you know that?" She pulled away slightly and looked at him.

"Shinase. Stop. I don't want to go there and I don't want to fight you." Tenshi pulled the shuriken out and stared at the redhead who continued to look at him longingly.

"You're such a tease you know that…But I like it!" She pinned his arms and moving in an instant bound him with ninja thread.

"Shinase!" Tenshi hissed her name and broke the thread with a single thread of chakra from his eyes.

"Don't be like that. Please… just one night." She pleaded with him, giving puppy eyes and kneeling down.

Tenkei…she would be hurt if I so much as considered spending time with her. Yet…I don't know. He looked at her and started walking away, upset. Then he heard it. A sobbing coming from the woman behind him…a low muffled sound.

"Shinase?" he leaned in, grabbing her wrist.

"Leave me alone! I thought you cared…but it turns out I was wrong." She tried to hide her face, but Tenshi wrapped his arms around her.

"Look…it's hard to explain alright? I…" he trailed off, unable to form coherent thoughts.

"I can't believe how stupid I was. I should have known you would have fallen for someone else. A female Akatsuki member I suppose. I should have…I don't know. Done something to prevent you from leaving. I am sorry I ever hurt you. And I know you don't believe me." She broke it up with sniffles and wiped her eyes with her sleeve.

Tenshi let his mind wander when he noticed someone coming their way. As if on a homing beacon.

"Get down." He formed the handsigns necessary for the jutsu, and concealed Shinase in a shining sphere of water, that was invisible. Seconds later, Tenkei appeared out of the mist.

What are you doing out here, this late at night? She said this in accusing tones, almost jabbing him with her words.

Taking a walk… Is that a crime?

No. But if you don't want to sleep next to me, just say so! He watched her, walking away from him, her grief and misery washing over him like a tidal wave.

Tenkei…He called after her, running to catch up to her fleeting form.

He reached for her, retreating as she turned on him growling.

Leave me alone. Just go back to walking… I'm sure you were doing just fine without me. You say you love me, and yet at every opportunity you shut me out. Is that what love is? You don't trust me...How do I know you aren't just toying with my heart?

Tenkei! He reached for her, and yelled out in pain, when she bit down into his hand drawing blood.

Tenshi! He watched her release his hand from her mouth and look at the ground.

Okay…I've been holding something back but I didn't want to hurt you. Tenkei…Look at me. I came back from meeting with Itachi alive, didn't I? I promised I would…no matter what. I understand you are upset because I won't tell you what I went through while I was gone. All I can tell you for now is that it was horrible. Something I will never go through again. I can't believe you don't think I love you. After all I went through for you! After giving up my soul to have you again. Do you really think I don't care?

He watched his lover mull over his words, shaking her head to clear it.

Tenkei…It's me. I'll explain everything at home. Before he could go on there was a splitting pain in his forehead, and a portal opened separating Tenshi and Tenkei.

What is this? I sense another wolf… Tenshi? Have you been cheating on me?

I don't know what is…ohhhhh. Dawning hit Tenshi with a full effect as he felt his forbidden kekki genkai appear and form a band of chakra around his eye. And then a deep female voice rose out from the mist surrounding Tenshi and Tenkei.

I never thought that you would summon me. Of all the things…the Last Yudashi! I am surprised to meet Shi'ons son so soon…

"And who are you?" Tenshi yelled into the wind.

I am the she demon- known as Poigaku. The creator of your eyes. I died and was resurrected by Kyuubi. The Nine Tailed Fox. And you have done something that is so forbidden that it has awakened me, in you. I am taking you as my host. This will truly be enjoyable. Your father did say two things about you. He said that if he was still alive he would be prouder than all the stars could show and he loves you more than anything. Lastly, he stated that the Last Yudashi…was more wolf and heart than everything. Though you are not perfect, and you have made more than your share of mistakes, I feel you are the greatest heir to that name. Now take my gifts… and I shall meet you tomorrow night. Good bye, Tenshi…Wolf of the Yudashi.

The lights faded and a scroll lay on the ground in front of him. He felt the power dwelling in his body and a greater sense of control over it. His abilities with his eyes would take time to learn. Hopefully, she helped him greatly though.

Tenshi… are you okay?

I'm…I'm fine. Let's head home.

They reached his dorm, and laid next to each other. Focusing his mind on Tenkei, he passed all of his memories of the past two weeks to her, in an instant. He cut out the torturous images and relayed rather how they felt, than what they were about. At the end, she whined softly.

I was being so insensitive. I am sorry… I shouldn't have judged you so critically Tenshi. Can you forgive me?

Of course.
