Chapter 9: Love's Found, A Battle Begins

Luna cherished that moment. She had found love. (A/N:) finally.heh ^^

Kurama backed out of the kiss. Luna was still blushing.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me." He apologized.

"Don't apologize." Luna said quickly. "There was no reason to apologize."

Kurama looked at Luna. Luna seemed to have stopped crying. He wiped away the remaining tears from her face. Then he just slid his hand up and down her cheek several times, as though trying to memorize her face. He stopped short and brushed her long bang out of the way. She smiled at him.

Luna thought that the silence between them was the longest moment of her life. She had never felt what it was like to be in love. Luna stopped Kuramas hand and pressed it to her face. 'His hand is so warm.' She thought to herself.

Kurama smiled at Luna. He was happy. He leaned forward yet again to kiss her again, though this time, it was a deeper kiss.

Luna accepted the kiss and kissed back.

The silence was broken by a cackling laugh. Kurama stop and pulled away from the kiss immediately, knowing somebody was in their presence.

"Awww, hey look Kitto. Look at how sweet Kurama is to this new tramp." Came a voice from a tree.

"Now, now, Kotuku, there's no need to be jealous." Came the voice of the one called Kitto.

Kurama and Luna were standing up, shifting their eyes from one tree to another. Kurama was standing in front of Luna, trying to make sure that no body tried to take her.

"Kotuku, what do you want?" Luna yelled as she searched from one tree to another.

Kotuku laughed. "Want? I want nothing, only you Luna." He said. He appeared from behind a tree, with a small fox at his side.

"That's Kitto?" Luna sweatdropped.

"Don't under estimate him Luna. He can easily beat up your little boyfriend there." Kotuku sneered.

Kurama stepped in front of Luna. "Is that a challenge?" Kurama asked as her stood in front of Luna.

Luna turned him around. "Kurama, what are you doing?" she asked. "I don't want you to get killed by that." She pointed over at Kitto.

Kurama gave her a stern look. "I'm going to fight to protect you." He said. "And there's no way you can make me change my mind."

"Kurama, listen, there's two of them and one of you. While your fighting one, the other one will try to take me." She said.

"Are you going to back down?" Kotuku asked as he gave Kurama an evil smile. Kurama shot a glare at him. Then he looked back at Luna.

"Don't worry alright? Just stay away from Kotuku while I'm in battle." He told her.

"Have you decided yet?" Kotuku asked once more.

"I will fight Kitto on one condition." He said.

"What's that?" Kotuku asked.

"That you stay away from Luna while I'm battling." He said sternly.

"Fine, then let the battle begin." Kotuku announced.
