Weiss Kreuz doesn't belong to me, lets just leave it at that.

Hello , yeah I'm back, and I have a new chapter so please read and don't forget to review and tell me what you think!!!

'blahblah' is thoughts
"blahblah" is spoken

Oh and remember, Isabella is Aya, shes just changed her name.




The smell of food is what woke her up from a deep sleep. Stretching, Isabella looked around the strange room she was in. 'Omi is almost as much of a clean freak as my brother is.' She thought to herself as she got out of the bed. 'Interesting how he fell in love with a man that is so unorganized!' She had seen Ken's room when she had gone in with Marc. It was clean, but she could tell he wasn't very organized and Aya had probably made him clean it up. Standing she walked over, looking out the window. The sun was already high, looking at the clock it confirmed that it was going on ten in the morning. "It really is a beautiful morning." She whispered to herself, then grabbed her towel as she ran into the bathroom.

Omi was humming as he put food onto a plate for Marc. "Aya, are you going to eat this morning?" The redhead looked up from his paper at the young boy by the stove. "If you are I can make you a plate?"

"No, thank you Omi." Aya answered, looking back down at the paper.

Nodding, the blond walked over setting a plate before Marc, who smiled. "Thank you very much."

"Welcome!" Omi said, smiling. "So what are you going to do once you graduate?"

Marc pulled the fork from his mouth, swallowing. "I was hoping to move here, to Japan. I would like to teach here, Isabella has a similar wish. As much as she pretends to like England, I can see how much she misses her homeland." This caught Aya's attention as he looked across the table at Marc.

"What do you mean?"

The dark haired man turned, looking over at Aya. "She likes it in England, but every time she talks about Japan or Tokyo, or you….her family, I see a glow about her that she usually doesn't have." He answered, taking another bite of the food. "She misses it here, which makes me wonder why she never moved back." He saw Omi and Aya exchange a look, his girlfriends brother shaking his head slightly, the hurt look in the blue eye of the blond. "Is there something wrong?" He asked, hoping he wasn't intruding.

"No!" Omi said, smiling at Marc. "She would just get a better education in England. I'm sure she's unhappy, but she knows she is getting more there than here." Marc nodded, feeling as if there was something he wasn't being told. Aya watched him for a moment more than lifted up the newspaper, grabbing his coffee cup with the other hand.

They ate in silence for a moment, then Aya breathed out setting his coffee cup down. "Omi, the toast."

The blond looked up, seeing the toaster had jammed, smoke coming out of the top. "Damn!" He jumped up, forcing the bread to pop out and sighed. "We really need a new toaster, its doing that more often now." Nodding, Aya smiled slightly and went back to reading his paper. Tossing the bread away, Omi wiped his hands off. "Ken and Yohji better get up soon, if we go out for the day and they aren't up…"

"They miss out." The redhead finished for him. "I'm not their mother, now if they were late for work that would be different."

"But…" He looked at the food on the stove and frowned. "Breakfast is going to get cold, then it will be spoiled."

"Then I'm glad I came down." The three men looked up seeing Isabella in the doorway. She was wearing a short black shirt, knee highs and a blue shirt, her hair pulled up into a bun. "I see your still a creature of habit." Isabella said, kissing her brother on the cheek.

"What's that supposed to mean." He growled, setting the paper down at his sister kissed his cheek. Looking her up and down, Aya frowned at the outfit she was wearing. "And when did you start dressing like that?"

Isabella looked down at her outfit and shook her head. "What's wrong with my clothes?"

"The skirt!" Aya and Marc said, then looked at each other.

Isabella laughed, walking past the table over to Omi. "Well at least they are agreeing on something!" The young man beside her smiled, nodding as he fixed her a plate. "The creature of habit comment was in reference to your morning ritual." She answered, thanking Omi and taking the plate over to the table to sit. "Every letter was the same…I got up, I practiced with my katana, read the morning paper and drank coffee." She saw the blond smirk, seeing she was right. "Oh yeah then I went and yelled at whoever, when they weren't up for work on time."

Marc looked up at the mention of the katana. "You swordfight?" Aya was about to shoot his sister a look for letting that slip when she smiled.

"Oh yes, Aya has always been fascinated with weapons." She looked at the redhead and winked. "He strictly does it for fun though, its good exercise." Aya nodded, then looked back down at the paper. Isabella just shook her head then looked at her boyfriend. "So how did you sleep?"

Marc looked up, smiling. "I slept well, thank you dear."

They continued to eat for a moment then Omi stood taking his plate to the sink. "It's a bit after eleven, maybe I should go wake up Yohji. If I don't he's going to sleep till sun down." Just as he finished speaking they heard someone walking upstairs. "Well at least Ken's up." He said, seeing the redhead nod confirming what Omi had said.

"How could you tell who it was?" Marc asked, seeing the three look at him. "Ah, sorry…"

Laughing, his girlfriend smiled at him. "No, it's ok. When you have lived and worked together as long as they have you get to know each other really well." She said, Marc kissed the back of her hand.

At that moment Ken walked into the kitchen. The dark haired assassin was wearing baggy shorts and a shirt that were in total disarray. It was obvious they had just been tossed on, his hair was sticking out everywhere looking like he would crash again any minute. A sleepy grin crossed his face as he made his way to the coffee machine, pouring a cup. Staring down at the dark black liquid, he breathed in, then took a sip. "Mmm coffee is a good thing.." He mumbled, taking another sip.

Omi smiled, rolling his eyes at the older assassin. "Are you hungry?"

"Do you really need to ask?" Aya said as he setting his paper down. "Ken eats more than the three of us combined." Grinning, Ken walked up, sitting down on his lovers lap. "Gah, Ken get up!"

Shaking his head, Ken snuggled up against the redhead. "Noppers I like it here."

"Your heavy!" Aya frowned, looking at his lover who had a smirk on his face.

"You never complain when we are in bed and…..." Aya covered his mouth, blushing a deep red. Isabella started laughing, her brother shot her a look. Kissing his hand, Ken pulled it away from his mouth. "Please Aya…I'm tired and your nice and warm.."

Sighing, he gave up and wrapped his arms around him. "You spill coffee on me…." Ken hushed him with a kiss.

Isabella smiled, watching the two for a moment. When she saw that they might not be done any time soon she cleared her throat, Aya and Ken looked up. "Get a room!" She teased, blushing, Ken got up off Aya's lap sitting in the seat beside him. "Are you ok?" Isabella asked after a moment, seeing that he really did look tired. The thought touched in her mind, maybe they had a mission last night. She instantly ruled that thought out, Manx had told her they would have this week off while she was visiting. "You look like your sleepwalking, and the hair…it does wonders for you!" She said, giggling.

Reaching up, Ken ran a hand over his head, rolling his eyes. "Bed head. I really am fine Isabella, we just spent half the night up making arrangements for blondie over there to take out this morning. Last minute things so we could take the week off." He laid his head down on the table, breathing out. Aya hand instantly went to his neck, massaging. "Oh thank you…." He mumbled, closing his eyes. The redhead smiled, leaning against his right had as the left continued to relax his lover.

Pushing away from the counter, Omi started towards the door. "I'm going to get Yohji out of bed, seeing everyone else is up."

"He's still asleep!" Ken growled, turning his head so he could look at the youngest of the group. "He didn't even help with anything! Lazy ass doesn't have a reason to still be asleep at this hour…" Omi smiled, shrugging.

"True, but I love him." The blond replied, walking out of the kitchen.

Marc looked at Isabella, then at her brother. "So all four of you live here and run the flower shop?" He asked, looking around. "You must do really well." Ken looked up at Aya from the table, the redhead just nodded. "Your sister tells me your one of the best florists in Tokyo."

Sitting up, Ken rolled his neck and grabbed his coffee. "That's sweet of you Isabella, but far from the truth. We have a lot of loyal customers."

Isabella stood, smiling down at her brother. "Ok, enough shop talk, what are we going to do today?"

"That's up to you sis, what do you want to do?"

"Shop!"

"No!" Marc and Aya both said, once again looking at one another.

Isabella fell back down into her chair. "Gods, maybe you two should be brothers!" She growled, looking from her lover to her brother. "You seem to both hate things I want to do."

"It's not that love, you just have a tendency to…well.."

"Overspend?" Aya asked, meeting the dark eyes for the man. He nodded. "How about we just show you around Tokyo today." The redhead suggested, looking from his sister to the man beside her. "We can show you the sights then we can decide what we want to do. Anyway that jetlag is going to hit you later today and your going to be wanting to come home for an early night." They all agreed that was the best route for them to take.

It was a bit after nine pm as the phone rang, one of the three men in the car picking it up. "Yes Sir?"

"Tell me you have good news Kai." The voice asked.

"Yes Takashi, we have found out where the assassin group lives. It seems there is a man and woman visiting. The six of them left earlier this morning, returning home about an hour ago." He answered, looking at the other two in the car. "What move would you like us to make."

There was silence on the phone for a moment. "Get one of their guests, perhaps that will show them I am serious about what I start….."

"Sir?" He said, cutting off his boss. He knew it was a dangerous move. "A woman just pulled up in the alley. She's taken the side door into the home, I'm guessing she's not a customer."

Takashi breathed into the phone. "Good, she may be an informant. Grab her when she comes out, we will see what we can get from her." Kai nodded, hanging up the phone.

"We grab the redhead when she comes back out if we can. If not, we go for one of the visitors." The other two nodded, pulling the car into the alley.


*


Manx walked up the stairs, a small folder in her hand. 'I know I told them no missions, but this really isn't a mission. They are going to be pissed, Aya's not ready yet…Isabella is still here.' She sighed, pausing by the door that led into their home. 'I hope they understand.' Opening the door, she walked in hearing laughter coming from the living room. For a moment she had second thoughts about going in there, then Omi walked into the kitchen.

"Manx?" He whispered, walking up to the redhead. "Are you here to see Isabella?"

She nodded, then handed him a folder. "Yes, but also this. I'm sorry I hate to do this to you, that is more information on Takashi." The blond smiled, flipping open the folder. "I know I said no mission, but I figured you needed that. He's getting restless, we think he may try something."

Omi paled. "But Isabella…"

"I know." She answered, her hand falling on his shoulder. "Don't worry, when I get back to base we are going to put a few guards on your home and on Isabella. I need you to warn the other three so they don't think its Takashi."

Nodding, he pointed into the living room. "Isabella is in there, I'm going to run down to the mission room. Just tell them I had to do something and I'll be back up in a few minutes."

Manx nodded as Omi walked over to a door, walking inside. "Hello." She said as she entered the living room, Isabella jumped up running over to the woman.

"Manx!" The two hugged, smiling. "Oh wow, I'm so glad you stopped by to see us!"

Looking down at the young girl, she shook a finger. "What, you think you could come all the way out here and not see me! You've grown, your beautiful!" The dark brown haired woman blushed, then hugged the redhead once again.

"Where is Omi?" Yohji meet the redheads eyes.

"Oh, I saw him when I came in." She answered, looking from the playboy to Aya. "He's gone downstairs for a moment to put away something I brought over for him." Violet eyes narrowed, the redhead just shook her head slightly. Unfortunately the gestured didn't go unnoticed by Marc. He frowned.

"I want you to meet someone!" Isabella grabbed her hand, pulling her over to the couch. "This is Marc, Marc this is Manx. She's a friend of the family." Standing, Marc took her hand in his.

"Pleasure to meet you Manx."

She smiled, taking his hand. "The same to you." Then looking at Isabella, Manx winked. "You even got a man with manners, not that I wouldn't expect any less from a Fujimiya!"

Omi came back up taking a seat beside his lover. Looking over at Aya, he nodded slightly then ran his hand over the scar on his arm. He saw the redhead touch his wrist, arching a brow and received another nod from the blond. 'Aya knows, he knows Manx brought something important. He knows its about Takashi, as soon as Marc and Isabella go upstairs…..'

She knew something was going on, luckily Marc was taking to Manx who was on the opposite side of her. She could clearly see Omi and Aya exchanging a very subtle very silent conversation between each other. 'She brought something with her, something to do with a mission.' Isabella knew what she had to do, there was silence for a moment, so she yawned. "Oh dear, I didn't realize I was so tired…" She said, covering her mouth. "But it has been a busy day, what time is it?"

Yohji looked at his watch. "Fifteen minutes to ten." He answered.

"Ah, well I think I'm going to bed for the night." She said, taking Marc's hand. "You should get some sleep as well love, if I'm tired I know you are." He nodded, standing, then helped Isabella stand as well. Manx smiled at the young woman, knowing she knew. "You will come see me again before I leave for England?"

"Of course Isabella, I wouldn't miss seeing you for the world!" The two women hugged, then walking over she gave each man a kiss on the cheek. "Be careful…" She whispered, pulling away. As she went to her brothers side he stood, Aya hugged him. "I want to know later…" She whispered, kissing his cheek.

"Good night Isabella." He said, brushing a loose peace of hair out of her face. The two walked across the room and went upstairs. The five watched the ceiling and after a moment one door closed, then the hall light went out as the second door closed. Violet eyes instantly went to the other redhead. "Is it a mission?" He asked, seeing Ken frown.

"No, I told you that you had this week off. We have found out more information on Takashi, something's going to happen. Takashi is going to try something and I wanted you to know. Once I get back we are going to send out some people to watch over your house and Isabella."

Aya sighed. "Maybe we should sent her home now."

"No!" Ken stood, taking his lovers hand. "She's only been here a day, Isabella would kill you Aya! Then there is Marc, what would he said if we sent then on their way. He would think you hate him, and I know you don't." His lover sighed, meeting his dark brown eyes. "You know I am right, we can protect her. Manx will get some people to tail us and everything will be ok!"

"Look I need to go, but I wanted to see her." She started for the door. "I'll get a hold of you within the next day or so. If you have any questions beep me." The four assassin nodded. Turning she walked out of the room for her car once again. 'I really hate doing that to them..' She thought as she went out the back door. 'But they need that information, I know I did the right thing. This whole thing is going to spook Aya thought, with his sister in town….' Opening the door to her car she climbed in, closing it. Instantly she felt the gun against the back of her head.

"Don't make a noise…" The man growled as his arm went around her neck. "Just do what I say and you will be fine, now pull this car out of this alley and take a left."

Manx nodded, turning on the car and putting it into drive. 'Right idea…' She thought to herself as she pulled away from her boys. '…but damn if I didn't mess up on the target. My boys will know, they will find out…'

Aya breathed out as gentle fingers massaged his wrist. After a moment the man beside him in the bed let out a sigh. "What?" He breathed, burring his face into the tanned neck.

"Nothing really." He answered back, frowning once again at the scars that circled the pale wrist. "I just see these…..it pisses me off. It just makes me want to hurt Takashi for doing this to you."

Aya smiled to himself as his lover continued to run his fingers over his wrist. "I know baby, but it could have been worse." Ken grunted, picking up the roll of bandages beside him and gently wrapped the redheads wrist. "Lay on your back." He whispered, pushing on Aya's chest, he complied. Picking up the bottle on the bedside table, he poured some into his hand, massaging the other wrist. "Does this stuff help at all?" He asked. The doctors had told him it would but when he had seen the pain his lover had to deal with he had wondered.

"You know it does." He whispered, opening his eyes to look at the man beside him. "But you being here makes me feel better as well." Ken smiled, reaching down to kiss him. Pulling apart, Ken went back to applying the cream to the reddened scars. "Are you going with me tomorrow to the hospital to see the Kritiker doctor there?" He heard the redhead ask, looking down at him.

Ken nodded, picking up the roll of bandages again. "If you want me to Love." Tying off the other wrist, he laid down, wrapping his arms around the pale form beside him. "There…" He said, kissing Aya's chest. "Your all better now."

The redhead smiled down at the man beside him, cuddling against his warm body. "Thank you Ken." The dark haired assassin just smiled, his eyes closed and he breathed out. 'What did I do to disserve you love. How did you ever fall in love with someone as closed off as me?' Aya could tell that he had already fallen asleep. He had noticed the first night they had slept together that Ken snored. But it wasn't one of those loud annoying snores that kept you awake all night, it was a light rumbling, almost like he was purring. It relaxed Aya to no end to hear that sound, to have him in bed with him, beside him. "Ken, are you asleep?" He breathed lightly, knowing he was but still having the need to ask.

He smiled, cuddling further into Aya's neck. "Mmm, love…."

Reaching up, Aya brushed the bangs out of Kens face. 'I hope your sleeping well.' He thought as he looked into the peaceful face. He was grateful for Ken, grateful of their relationship. Sure he was the leader of Weiss, but that leadership didn't mean shit when it came to them. 'I may have started all of this by kissing him first but he has defiantly taken control of this relationship.' The funny thing was that Aya didn't mind. It was an odd arrangement, and one they never agreed on, it just happened. Aya for all purpose kept his role of leader, seeming like everything was under his control. Then comes Ken, right behind him, supporting him, making him see things and ultimately telling Aya how things should go. But that only pertained to their relationship, Ken happily accepted that Aya was the leader of Weiss and left it at that. 'I don't think the others realize he's the dominate one, he's so subtle about it. I actually can't remember when the roles got reversed?' Though Aya did remember the first time he had realized the roles were reversed. 'It was the first night we made love, I was so ready to take him…but he took me instead. It's been that way ever since…..' He reached up, running his hand down the tan cheek.

"You know that Aya is stressing out over this." Omi nodded, staring at the ceiling. "You don't think he would really just toss her on a plane and tell her to go home, do you?"

He looked over at his young lover as the boy shrugged. "If Aya felt there was enough danger…." The sentence never finished as Omi once again gave his full attention to the ceiling. "Takashi wanted the plans, we took the plans. If he knows about Kritiker and knows about Weiss he might be trying to force us out.."

Yohji nodded, leaning up on his elbow to look down at the young blond beside him. "And so, what would that mean?" He asked. Yohji had gotten use to the way Omi was, thought he never knew the boy would lay in bed thinking out every mission thoroughly from about twenty different angles. 'When does he ever get any sleep? Does he sleep when we are working on missions?'

"He's going to come after us, even if he does….we don't have the files anymore. So coming after us wouldn't do anything for him. He has to know we have already passed them on to our informant! What if he found out about Manx, would he be stupid enough to go after her?" Omi pulled his attention away from the ceiling, looking at the man beside him. "Maybe I'm looking at this wrong, he would want Weiss wouldn't he?"

"I would think so Kitten." He answered, looking into the deep blue eyes. "We are the ones who killed his men."

Yohji was about to speak again when he felt Omi's hand on his mouth. "Granted, he did have his men torturing Aya, but Takashi wouldn't see it in that light. He just sees that we killed his manpower, now he wants the files back. Coming after us is the most direct route to that." Yohji frowned, pulling the smaller boy into his arms. "I'm worried Yohji, Aya's not fully healed and Ken…."

"Ken's not going to take prisoners." He finished for the blond. "They hurt what was his and Ken's very protective. The only thing that's kept him calm for the moment is the fact that Aya's healing. That and Isabella is here, it's a distraction for all of us. But that distraction is leaving in four days, Ken's gonna be on the warpath once we start up on this mission again." Kissing Omi's temple, Yohji reached over to turn off the light. "This is to much to think on right now. We will worry about this later as a group, sleep now."

"Yohji?"

"Yeah Kitten?"

He closed his eyes, breathing out. "If anything ever happened to me…."

"I would in no way be a sane man." He whispered. "But I have no intentions of ever letting anything happen to you Omi." He saw the blond smile in the half light of the moon and smiled back. "I love you Kitten."

"I love you too." He whispered, curling against the older mans body.


*


Ken breathed out, slowly coming out of the light sleep he and entered. Opening an eye he could see the clock over his lovers chest and sighed. 'I've only been asleep for three hours?' Growling inwardly, he tried to get comfortable once again. That's when he realized the man beside him was still awake. "Sleep.." He whispered into his ear, kissing his neck. "I know your thinking about all this shit going on with Takashi." There was no response. "I know you are Aya, your totally tense, you gotta let it go for now." Aya sighed, meeting the dark brown eyes. "You keep worrying about thing and you will never get any rest."

"I know." He answered back after a moment, turning on his side to face the man beside him in his bed. "Ken, we can protect her…right?"

The tanned assassin smiled, nodding. "You know we can, lover. She's going to be ok, anyway it was us four that messed with him. Takashi can't possibly know about Marc and Isabella." The redhead sighed, wrapping one arm around his lovers waist. "I want you to rest now, worrying about all of this isn't going to get you anywhere. All your going to end up doing is stressing yourself out."

"I know." He said, sighing. "I just worry about those I love, I worry about you too." He saw the dark haired man smile, then reached up to kiss his lover. When they pulled away, Ken tucked one of the blood red eartails behind his ear.

"I worry about you too sweetie." He purred, laying back down beside Aya. "Now rest." The redhead nodded, then started to relax. Soon the two were asleep, a gently breeze coming in though the window.


*


Isabella woke, looking around the room for a moment, then yawned. "It's way to early to be up." She mumbled, turning over to glance at the clock on the bedside table. 7:12am shone brightly in large red numbers, Isabella growled. "Way to early to be up." She contemplated rolling over and going back to sleep when she remembered last night. 'Manx brought them something important, I could tell by Aya's face!' Jumping up out of the bed, she made her way across the hall to Ken's room. Peeking in, Isabella could see that Marc was still dead asleep. She closed the door quietly and made her way down the hall.

Omi opened the door into the basement, closing it behind him. The other three Weiss looked up as he came down the stairs. "She hasn't been seen since last night, right before she came here."

"Takashi." Ken turned, looking back at Aya. "He has her, she said he was going to make a move."

"But why her, why not us?" Omi asked, plopping down in the chair at his desk. "I thought…" He sighed. "Never mind what I thought, fact is that Persia hasn't seen Manx since he gave her the information she brought to us. It takes her less than thirty minutes to get from here to Persia office…"

"Manx is missing?" The four looked up at Isabella. "Sorry, I was coming down to ask about what last night." She made her way silently down the stairs, walking up to Aya. "What is happening?"

He sighed, reaching up to brush back her hair. "Something happened before you came home, the problem isn't fixed yet." He said simply, Isabella frowned. "Look, you shouldn't get involved."

"Aya's right." Yohji said, agreeing. "We don't want anything happening to you. Leave this to us, you just enjoy your time here." She nodded, looking at the four once again. "Ok, we will figure this out." The long dark haired man said, looking at Aya. "You go to your little appointment and once you get back…"

She turned, looking over at her brother. "What appointment?"

"I have to go see a Kritiker doctor about my injuries." He answered, looking at Ken. "We should get going soon."

"I'm coming!" Ken and Aya looked back over at the young woman. "I want to come. Please Aya, let me come with you!!"

Sighing, he looked at Ken who shrugged. "Fine."

"Yes! Ok I'll be right down!" They watched as she ran back up the stairs and disappeared.

Ken could tell Aya was worried, taking his hand he smiled when the redhead looked at him. "Hey, we can watch her closer if she's with us." He said, trying to make his lover relax. "Come on, lets go upstairs and get ready to go."

Isabella sat in the backseat of Aya's car, shocked. Ken was driving the car. Ken was driving Aya's car. Ken was driving Aya's Porsche, his baby! 'It has to be love, Aya would never let anyone drive this car. He would rather die than let someone drive his car.' Of course it didn't help that the two men were bickering back and forth about it.

"Slow down."

"I'm only two miles over the speed limit Aya!"

"So slow down."

Ken growled. "You would be going like sixty!"

"But I'm not driving….don't do that!"

"You know, I do know how to drive! Now hush."

Aya covered his eyes with a hand. "Your going to get us killed…"

"Shut up!"

Aya shot the soccer player a look. "Stop telling me to shut up and pay attention!"

That was the final straw. Ken pulled of to the side of the road, slamming on the breaks. Aya and Isabella both looked over at him, shocked and slightly pale. "By the….fucking…..damn it!" He sighed, breath out. "If you don't stop bitching at me about my driving I swear I will turn this car around and go home. Then you can drive your self back to the fucking hospital!" The redhead looked up at his lover, obviously shocked at Ken's outburst. He sighed, meeting the violet eyes with his own. "I'm sorry baby, I'm just touchy this morning." Aya just nodded. "Are you ok?"

"Yeah."

He smiled, then looked back at Isabella. "Are you ok?" She nodded, smiling back at him. "Ok, now lets go to the hospital." Isabella was proud of the fact that her brother didn't complain the rest of the way. The last thing she wanted was Ken showing them once again how well he could use the breaks of Aya's car.


The doctor looked up at Aya and nodded. "Very nice, a lot better than the last time I saw you." He answered, Isabella tried to hide her anger. She hadn't known her brother had been so badly injured. It was obvious that he had gone though something but she also knew she couldn't force him to tell her.

"So can I go back to work?"

He nodded. "Your healed, all you need now is time. The scars will fade, but they are nothing more than scars. I don't see any reason why you can't go back on duty." Aya breathed out, obviously relieved. Ken also looked relieved, smiling up at the redhead. "If you do have any problems I do expect you to come and see me, but other than that…" The doctor shrugged. "I'll call Persia and tell him your active."

"Thank you." He nodded, walking out of the room. Aya grabbed his shirt, pulling it back on. "When we get home I want to spar, all this lack of training…" Ken nodded, understanding. "Isabella?"

She looked up meeting his eyes. "You didn't tell me you had been hurt that badly." She whispered.

He sighed, hopping down from the exam table and pulled his younger sister into his arms. "I didn't want you worrying over something you couldn't change. What I am and what I have become…..it isn't your fault." She looked up meeting his eyes. "My own temper got me into this, if I hadn't been so quick to jump…"

"You would have still become what you are." She said, when the silence went on a bit to long. "You may have brooded a bit longer, or took it out on yourself. You have always been so quiet and inward focused, yet so quick to anger. In the end the result would have been the same, I know you. You are Ran, no matter what happens you are always Ran and I am always Aya." She giggled at that, meeting his deep purple eyes. "Anyway Aya suits you, your so pretty……"

"Isabella!" He hissed, shaking his head at her. "You really know how to try me, don't you."

"Yep! Now come on, we should really get back before the others worry." She walked out of the room, humming to herself. He felt the hand in his, looking down as Ken walked up beside him. Meeting the eyes of his lover Aya smiled, they walked out of the room to catch up with Isabella.








So what ya think? Yeah I know where is Nagi, don't worry hes comming back into it soon. La la la someone has Manx!!! YAY! oh wait no I mean bad...bad people for taking Manx! *L* Anyway please review and I'm working on the next chapter now!
