The girls and the boy were startled like spooked horses.A human woman appeared.She looked pale and her eyes were sore from crying.she looked very frightened herself.As though she had been chased by wolves! (hey,wolves may not be bunnies but even they are not that vicious!) Star took another look at the envelope.



Mrs. Trinity Xena

Fox Wood

Blossom avenue,Burrow 777

Star gathered up her courage and said meekly but politely."Excuse me madam.But,um,are we in Fox Wood?" the woman slowly nodded her head.You see the island was devided into 5 parts.Demon's Coven (The bad part of the island) ,Fox Wood (a nice place with burrows where kitsunes usually dwelled),Wolves Den (where Star and her family and friends lived) ,Snake Sword (The least populated because of it's vast amout of snakes.Usually witches lived there.) ,and the Misfits Death.(A small community.'Soaked in blood' because of how many 'miscreants' were born there or that lived there.)"And,um.....are you a Mrs. Trinity Xena?" yet again,the woman continued to nod her head.Somehow,they found themselves in the living room of this odd woman's burrow.She opened the letter tearfully and looked at the fine typewriter print.She gasped and buried her head in her hands,sobbing uncrontrollably.Star looked at the gang and said that maybe they should have left.But being that Saluna always had to act polite and pretty,she whispered that that would be terribly rude and selfish even though secretly she wanted to get the heck out of there just as bad as the others.A few seconds after she had said that,the most beautiful of piano music (wich everyone thought was a radio) stopped instantly.A woman walked out of the next room and hurried over to Mrs. Xena patting her back and saying that it was all going to be allright.Star recognized it instantly as "Auntie Rena?" said Star with a dumbstruck look on her face.Yes,Rena was there and looked well.She had a long flowing baggy shirt and loose baggy pj pants.She had another peice of the jewl around her neck and her fingers were red.Rena,is of course a very talented pianist,because as children before Inuyasha was born,Anakin had been from Britain.(if I have not mentioned it before,another demon city was recently built on a British island.) Anakin of course had brought scarce cds of piano music to relax while he wrote and read his poetry.When he had been running for his life from exterminators that had still dwelled there (Hey that was a pretty long time ago!) He ran down the well and met Rena as her father was explaining the well to her.Later Anakin found himself in her room playing the cds to her as Rena's mother and father had been curiously listening to the odd device from the next room.

"Oh that is a most beautiful sound Anakin!" Rena squealed."Yeah,It's called a piano.They have not been brought to Japan yet in my time but they are working on it." Rena listened attentively and with wide eyes as Anakin explained the whole history of the piano."My grandmother has a piano.Hey,when mother and father say it is safe to go back home,I'll let you try it out!You look like a fast learner." Anakin brought up."Oh,I believe I could never play like THAT,but I am a quick learner when I am willing." Rena replied."So my offer has answered itself.You do know the notes of music right?" Anakin simply stated."Of course,I have heard the musicians play in the next village!And mother explained all the notes to me!" Rena said starting to get worked up."Great!" Anakin cried."But.....do you promise you will show me the pianca." Said Rena in a small tone."It's called a piano and yes.I promise." So a deal had been struck between them.

Star's eyes lit up and she ran to her smiling 'auntie' ."Rena!Where have you been?You worried us so much!" Star said fighting the tears of joy rising to her eyes."I've been taking shelter here little one.I've quite missed you as well." She gently said.Trinity cocked her head gently to one side."Is this your family?" She chokingly said between her tears."What a....beautiful...ch..ild...Ohhhh!" She started crying again and ran to her room.Star was still curious about this woman's behavior."Auntie?Who is that?And why does she seem so sad?" Star whispered even though she knew Trinity could'nt possibly never hear her."Well.She recently lost her daughter.I never caught her daughter's name.But she told me she must have gotten mad at her because of family matters."

A ZONE IN,IS A LOOK IN THE LIFE OF ANOTHER CHARACTER.IN THE THIS CASE,TRINITY'S DAUGHTER!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

One dark night,a baby was born.She had been cleaned up and was in her tired mother's arms.Two faces looked down apoun her,hidden by the dark."Shes so beautiful...." A man's voice whispered."What name should she have?" A woman replied sweetly."I like Vira." The man said smiling."I'd prefer Floria.I can't help it.I'm a nature person." She whispered back."Yeah.She looks more like a Floria to me." The man replied."But right now,we shouldn't worry about that.What should we do with her?" The woman said worrying about the consequences to come from this child's birth."Ever since that horrible organization started against half breeds,she isn't safe!" she cried franticly.The child's ears twitched in her peaceful sleep.The couple remained in silence for what seemed 7 whole minutes.The man's black fox's ears had flattened on his head still in deep thought.All of the sudden,the door busted open,and a man in a black costume had rushed in carrying a large sword.The man instantly stood up and bared his fangs.He unsheathed his claws and hissed.He snapped his head around and screamed at the mother and child."Don't worry about me!Run Trinity!Run!I LOVE YOU!" the woman stared in disbelief and ran out of their once peaceful village.Her daughter had woken and cried and screamed the whole way!So the woman had ran until she stopped in the middle of the woods.A crunch!A snap!Somebody was coming!With tear stained cheeks and quivering legs,she pulled her whimpering hungry child toward her chest.A kitsune who was easily recodnized as a member of her husband's village of Fox Wood had found them.He looked at them and instantly knew their scent.After the woman had been graciously accepted to stay in the man's warm burrow for a while,the woman had made herself comfortable and fed her child."Oh,Kibito!What should I do?I can't hide in this burrow forever,no offense." She wailed.So that was when Trinity made her big decision.The child could never know of her heritage as a half breed.A spell was placed,and the girl had been disguised as a human.Her powers were dropped to that of a regular human,and she could not be changed back until someone found out the secret way to take the spell off.For nineteen long happy years,the child,Floria,had been entirely unaware,but remained happy in the brand new village her mother had found.Her father had been taken a message of what the woman decided to do to fix the situation they had come across.the man swore that he would find a way to be one happy family again and made clear that his love for her was eternal and could not be stopped by the tragedy of fate that had so wrought their lives!But one day.........the child's life changed forever.Naraku had come.He saw the young maiden's secret that was so kept from her.He took the spell off.She had been in the gardens and then,everyone started screaming in terror and some ran and some started to throw rocks at her body."What on earth?" She stated quietly.Her hair had begun to change from her deep chesnut brown to a bright orange.And from that orange hair,erupted two large black cat looking ears,just poking through.A large black tuft from a bushy orange tail had poked down through her pant leg.Her mouth had felt funny.Fangs.And has she blocked the rocks,she saw that her nails had grown into claws.She ran home in complete shame and horror at her newfound parts."Mom!Help me!Look at me!I'm a monster!" She screamed."Floria dear,calm down!" Her mother tried to blurt out."Calm down!?CALM DOWN!?LOOK AT ME!" She boomed."I want some answers now!" Floria yelled,tears coming to her eyes.Her mother stood in silence."You're a human,I'm sure of it!So if I look like this.......OH MY GOD!I could have just been a demon but no!I have my dirty blood!" She cried."Dear there is nothing wrong with your heritage!" Her mother wailed reassuringly."Mother!How could you!I HATE YOU!I'M NEVER COMING BACK!" Floria blurted.She ran out of the house and ran.Ran far away.She stayed out in the wild for just a few days.those days started to turn into weeks.And finnaly.It was months,and she never took a look back.And every night,she cried at her plight.She had gotten her typewriter from one very hospitable girl who took her in for a little bit.She had still been writing her current story.And then.She found herself at Star's home while running scared,alone in the rain."It's true what they say!You really can never come home again.No.What is home?They say home is where the heart is.But where does mine belong.To me,or my.......NO!What family!?What parents!?What mother............"Se would stay.And even now.She still cries at night.Wondering what cruel fate would bestow to her.
