Authors Note:My gramar is kind of messed up because my mother language is not

english,but read the story and review please(I despite of the gramar thing I

guess it's cool)

Almost a year has passed since Keitaro and Naru made it to toudai

and went around the worl with Seta.It's

almost christmas eve and feelings of joy and dreams are in the air.

 In the Inatta Inn a lot as changed,Kitsune has a new boy friend each week

Shinobus crush on Keitaro is almost over...

One of the few who hasn't chaged at all is Motoko,she remains the same

lonely samurai girl that doesn't get close to any boy but the "baka

kanrinin" Keitaro.

 One day she is going to school and as always she meets her three friends:

 -Motoko sempai!You're so beautyfull

 -Motoko sempai!You're so skillfull

 -Sempai,I'm still worried,are you still living under the same roof with that man?

 She calmly passes by and doesn't even awnsers.The snow ligthly covers the streets

this time of the year,for her this is a good season except for that stupid tradition

 that said that eternal happyness would be granted to those who would confess their love on

christams eve...she knew that it probably would never happen to her...

Anyways this was the last day of school and she was happy because in the holydays

she could train her sword technikes without being harrassed,since Keitaro and Naru

weren't in hinatta inn.

 As she is day dreams while she walks towards the school she ears a big noise

realy big noise,she looks behind and:

 -AAAHHHHH,Motoko-san!!!Look at my new mecha-Tama 4...pretty cool hu?-

It was Su again testing one of her turtle like giant robots.

 The day passes and she doesn't even notices,and soon it's time to go home

today she chose to walk home alone.

 "Is the sword the only thing that mathers in life?Maybe I have been

wrong all these years..."

 She gets so distracted thinking about what she did and what she could

have done that she doesn't even notices that there are two guys getting close

to her...

 When she finaly notices one of the starts grabing her. Calm as allways

she reaches for her wooden sword,but before she can draw it a guy appears

riding a skate,and he kicks both guys in the face and they run like hell

 -Well they looked pretty nasty hu?-He says to Motoko.She feels bad about

this,she was helped by a man,this is not good.

 -Who are you?-She says not quite thrusting him.

 -Wow...calm down,I'm Santos,and now isn't it about time you said something

like...thank you,miss Motoko?-He says rather amused,he is about 1,80m,thin but

with well built muscels,dark skin,wearing no shirt and baggy trousers,while he talks to her he grabs his skate.

 -No I am not going to thank you...but I don't want to be in debt to you

so...what do you want?

 -Hum ?

 -Yes what do you want me to do to pay the debt...just don't ask nothing

indecent!!

 -Well Motoko,to say the truth,what I realy wanted...well I allways see you in

school,and I've noticed one thing,you never smile...that's what I want from you...-

she stares at him,who is this guy?She never even notice him...

 "Well,I have to do it!" she thinks.So her lips slowly start moving untill they draw a

smile in her face.

 -I must say...you are beautyfull...-he says while he stares at her forced smile.

She blushes,stares at him...then...

-ZAN KOU ZEN!!!!!!!!-she draws her sword and sends him flying until he hits a wall.

-Who does he thinks he is talking to me like that...men are all the same.-That's what she says

but the truth is,she doesn't forget those words that easily.

When she arrives at hinatta inn,instead of training herself as she always does,she just sits on the couch

and stays there,daydreaming.

 -Motoko,Motoko!What are you thinking about?Is it something to eat?Is it delicious?-asks Su runing around

her.

 -It's not something to eat...those are the eyes of a girl that just fell in love!-says Kitsune smiling.

 -Nonsense,I wasn't thinking about nothing,NOTHING!!!-Motoko awnsers to both of them while she gets up

and goes upstairs.

 "What was that all about,that idiot didn't have to save me! I can defend myself"

Motoko can only think about what happened.Suddently she ears a bunch of loud noises...

 "Boooommmm" "go mini mecha tamas!!!!" "AAhhhhh,I'm sorry,I'm sorryAAAHHH"

 -This voice?No, it can't be!!-Says Motoko while she rushes out side folowing the noise,

when she arrives the spot Su is "launching mecha tama attack against invasor!!!"

And invasor is...Santos that's running like hell,back and forth trying to free himself

from the diabolic Su's "toys".

 -OOOOhhhh damn!!! I said I'm sorrryyyyyyyyy!!!-while saying this he notices Motoko-hey Motoko?

ouch!What are you doing here?-Motoko's awnser is: -ZAN KOU ZEN!!!!!!- and with a powerfull attack

sends him flying until he hits a wall.Mutsumi aproaches him.

 -Is he still alive?-She asks smiling. Santos stood up,still a little afraid and said:

 -Su chan!Why did you do that?Don't you recognize me? It's me,Santos.-

Su stops for a while,the jumps and hugs him.

 -Cousin,cousin,cousin!!...Why are you here?-She says still hugging him.

 -What?-Kitsune and and Motoko asked at the same time.

 -Santos is my brasilian cousin,he is here in Japan for some time now,and by

the way,cous,why did you come?Why?Why?-Said Su talking enthusiasticly.

 -Well lil cous,I'm kind of money short,couldn't pay the rent so I was kicked

out of my apartment...and I was wondering,Su chan,can I stay here with,just untill

my money problem is over?Please?-

 -Well,I'll have to ask the guys-Su says looking at the other girls.

 -Ara...Nice...-Mutsumi said.

 -I don't know.-Shinobu said.

 -Humm,brasilian huh?Not bad!-is Kitsune's awnser,then they all look at Motoko.

Motoko starts thinking "Santos...living with me...everyday..."

 Her face starts turning all red and then she says: -NO WAY!!-

 -Your all red!-Kitsune says-I see,he is the one you've been thinking about

isn't he?-

 -Well I saved her earlier from two realy nasty guys...-

 -So he is the one!!-

 -No he is not,and just to show you guys that I realy don't care about him

you can let him stay here,I realy dont care!!-After she says this, Motoko goes in

furiously.

 Haruka also agreed in let him stay,as long as he would work like a slave for the

time he stayed there,he accepted it.

 "It's a nice place and I'm near Motoko so,it's cool... a little work wont kill me"

Well,that's what he thought...

In that same day after,after he washed the windows,choped wood,cleaned the floor,cleaned the kitchen

and the living room,he finaly got to rest a little while.

 He goes outside,takes his shirt off and starts training capoeira. Motoko,who is also outside training

Kendo notices him,to her that is kind of a crazy dance that she never saw.

She approaches him and says: -I had noticed that you're kind of crazy,but,what the hell are you doing?-

 -Oh this? This is a brazilian martial art named capoeira,it's as beautifull as a dance but as deadly

as any other martial art.-he says still training his crazy spining kicks.

 -Capoeira?Looks like a useless dance,wouldn't stand a chance agains't kendo!!-

 -Wanna bet?-He says smiling,as for Motoko she imediatly assumes a combat pose,she attacks him with various technikes

he dodges them all,then jumps over her with a spining jump and touches her ligthly with his finger on the back of her head.

 -Guess you lost darling...-he says amused,but she is not that amused...once again her awnser is: -ZAN KOU ZEN!!!!-

And once again she sends him flying untill he hits the wall.

 -Moto...ko...that's becoming a realy nasty habit*ouch*,you know?-after he says that he gets up and gets near her again

and all the suddent a bunch of flying turtles pass by them,seeing this he says: -Damn this a strange country!-almost imediatly

Motoko holds on to his arm saying: -OH NO!!!TURTTLES!!!TURTTLES!!!!-

 The turttles pass by and she still holds on to him,feeling his strong well built muscles,while her soft sent tickles his nose

they look at each other,blush the she stops holding him and walks two steps backwards.

 -Now that's cute,the way you held me because of the turttles...it looks like you realy are feminine after all...-

 -Shut up!No I'm not!-

 -Yes you are...and you're so beautyfull it hurts!-She blushes even more,looks at him,then grabs her sword and...

misses him,he dodges and runs away.

 -Hahaha,you're realy cute Motoko!-he says while running away from her,she looks at him,and thinks"baka (means idiot in japanese)".
