Chapter 8: Reviving The Past

Luna turned back around and continued to stare. Kurama came up behind her and put a hand her shoulder. She jumped slightly but put her hand over his.

"Luna, I know something's wrong. You can tell me." He assured her. Slowly her hand dropped from Kuramas. She stood looking at sky, tears beginning to form in her eyes. She quickly shut her eyes so Kurama wouldn't see her crying. Though he did see her.

He pulled her close but she turned around and began to cry on his shirt. Kurama gently put his arms around her. She continued to cry.

"Why are you crying?" Kurama asked as he held her. Her only response was she gripped his shirt. He pulled her closer.

Luna slowly slipped away from his arms, though she was still crying. She ran and jumped over the concrete wall and landed on her feet perfectly. She then began to run into the woods.

Kurama quickly followed her. He jumped from the balcony and started to run after her. 'What's she doing?' he asked himself.

He had her in sight. She was just a little farther in front of him. He jumped and landed in front of her.

She didn't see him and ran into him. She bounced backwards and landed on the ground. She still had tears in her eyes, now streaming down her face. She looked away from Kurama. She couldn't face him.

He knelt down and looked at her. She glanced at him but turned her glance back to the ground.

"Luna, I need to know what's wrong with you. Please, tell me." He said as he wiped the tears from her face.

Luna looked up at Kurama. She tried to speak, but words wouldn't come out. She tried again, this time, she spoke.

"I k-k-know Kotuku, I th-th-think." She managed to say. "He was a childhood friend. But he died in a wild fire that broke loose one night awhile ago." She said somewhat calmer.

Kurama knew why she had cried; she saw a past memory that couldn't be brought back. "I see." He said.

"I'm sorry to make you worry about me." She apologized. "It's just, why is he haunting me?"

Kurama shook his head. "I don't know. That's something you should ask him. And it's alright that you cried. I don't mind at all trying to comfort you if your in pain or grief." He replied.

Luna looked at Kurama who gave her a warm smile. She leaned over and hugged him. He gave her a hug in return.

Luna knew from that moment on that Kurama would always be there for her. He'd never leave her.

Kurama slowly came out of the hug and gently kissed her lips.
