Chapter 3 {P.O.V of Nuriko}

Years pass my mother is still evil and I'm become cold and emotionless because of my mother my father tries to help but I tell him to stay out of it. Afterwards I feel terrible because I told my father off, but my mother's evil words have gotten to me so I turn my self away from the world. I don't allow my father to teach me any more and I have my own room now and I'm called Lord Nuriko. I love the power and I have made a new friend, we are alike in so many ways but different demons he is wolf and I'm a fox. I walk out of high stone to a tree and I see him there deep in thought.

I jump behind him unnoticed and whisper "hello my love."

His surprised eye turns and looks at me and gives me a small smile.

"Sesshomaru what are you doing up here?"

"Just thinking how life could have been better for the both of us."

"You can't turn back time Sesshomaru"

"Yes I know he sighs. Nuriko, are lives have been hell and the only people we trust is each other, how can that be, have we been singled out to love each other and have our mothers and fathers hate us even more than they already do?"

"I'm not sure anymore, I thought everything was good a long time ago but now everything has gone to hell."

"Let us run away, never to return Nuriko."

"We can't both our mothers would hunt us down and kill us."

"We can't show affection for each other or will get kicked out of our own clans."

"Life is not fair, where does it say that your mate has to be the opposite sex?"

"Everywhere you look Nuriko, with out opposites no more kids would be born, and the world would stop existing."

"Are you saying we should stop this love for each other, Sesshomaru?"

"We only love each other because we have gone through the same thing and we know what each other feelings is, and if we do something we will regret later on then why do it at all, Nuriko."

"Sesshomaru you need a hobby, you think too much about things."

"What? Well there is nothing else does around here but think, and since were getting older we should start thinking about getting mates"

"Hey lets go to the other side of the woods, Sesshomaru."

"Why should we?"

"Because now come on. Tag your it Sesshomaru."

I run off and try not to look back. "Tag your it Nuriko."

Damn he got me. I run after him got yeah! I runs off and hides in a tree. What the- ahhhh. I'm knocked out of the tree and Sessohmaru is on top of me.

"Get off Sesshomaru."

I look deep in his eyes there such a deep gold, I get lost in his eyes and the next thing I know I'm kissing him and his kissing me back, I hope it last forever. We stop and breathe.

I whisper into his ear "I--Love--You." He hugs me tight and starts to cry, his says it has been forever since somebody told him that.

Its some time later and I'm walking around in high stone looking heartless, I smell somebody that is familiar. I start to run, down the dark corridors trying to get away from him only the young age of four he is smart and fast. Oh shit he got me.

"Hey Kurama where are your shoes, Chi is really going to be upset if you come home with no shoes."

"I hate shoes they hurt my feet. Nuriko, where have you been?"

"I have been outside of high stone."

"Outside?"

Oh yes I remember Kurama hasn't been aloud outside yet this little fox pup has to much energy for his own good. He yawns and puts his hand around my neck and starts to fall asleep. My father has not aloud my mother Urd every to see Kurama, I fear what she might do to him if she does meet him. She loves my father so much but hides it and hates Chi with a blind fury that will never end. I smell someone behind me as I hug Kurama.

"Where have you been Nuriko?"

I start to turn around and she slaps me hard. "Why do you I care I growl!?"

"What is that your holding Nuriko?" "Is this your fathers and Chi son the little brat Kurama?"

Kurama growls at her for hitting me, and she laughs.

"What a ugly child, and this is supposed to be the next heir. Has his mothers look and Ansem has been a idiot to fall in love with her."

"Mother if you never left him he would still be yours."

"Don't tell me how to run my life you ugly purple fox." She runs a finger over Kurama cheeks and cuts it slightly it starts to bleed. He bites her, his little teeth into her and she pulls back. "Ugly child should be killed"

"Mother stop it before Ansem comes after and kills you." Mother stands back and growls at me. "I'm taking him back home" I start to walk away Kurama looks at me like I'm about to say something his eyes are so big and green.

"Kurama I'm sorry she did that, but she is a evil person."

"Yep-evil Kurama nods, I smile yep.

As I start walking him home my ears pick up servant women yelling for Kurama, then I hear my father's voice.

"How can you lose a little boy his only four how can he go unseen?"

I walk in and my father sees Kurama in my hands.

"Daddy!" he jumps from my hands and lands in my fathers hands, I can see his very surprise to see me especially with Kurama.

"Where are your shoes little one?"

"I hate shoes Kurama yells!"

"You have to stay closer to home and not try to run off" says Chi.

"I didn't run off I wanted to find Nuriko."

Chi looks at me "hello Nuriko, how have you been?"

"Fine" I answer in an emotionless tone.

Father sees the cut on Kurama face and glares at me. "Who did this to Kurama!? Nuriko?"

"I'm sorry father I can't say."

"What do you mean you can't say?!"

"Ansem" Chi says, "calm down Kurama is fine and he is home. Nuriko will you stay you know how much Kurama likes you and if you stay after his bath he could say goodnight to you."

"Fine."

{P.O.V of Ansem} Chi walks into another room starts to take off Kurama's blue kimono and slips him into the bath and Ansem comes up behind her. And kisses her ears, and she tries not to laugh since it tickles as she washes Kurama.

"Ansem why don't you Nuriko talk anymore?"

"Because the boy shut me out of his life and become a arrogant little demon."

"No his not, he just a boy whose very confused, I have heard the servants talk about how his mother treats him."

"What do you mean Chi? She beats him, slaps him and tells him wrongs things that have breaking his little heart for years and your telling me you never knew?"

"No of course not, if I did I would have stopped her a long time ago."

"Well your oldest son needs you now more than every and you should talk to his mother."

"That's not the easiest thing to do you know."

"Why all you have to do is tell her off"

"Yes but she was my mate long ago and I still have feelings for her, I guess you could say."

"What do you mean you still have feelings for her?"

"She was my mate once and she had my child."

"Who cares this is about Nuriko and how much his love is for you."

"Wait, Ansem your not telling me you still love her" she starts to cry as she washes Kurama.

Kurama has heard them fight before and had learned to not listen but when his mother started crying then he got mad.

"No I don't love her you're the only one for me." Kurama starts to growl "no Kurama I said sorry."

Kurama jumps out of his bath all wet and jumps on Ansem, knocking him to the ground and then took this as his time to take the kill. He started biting Ansems ankles "ouch!"

Chi grabs Kurama "Kurama it's ok mommy is all better its not daddies fault." She starts to dry him off.

Ansem gets up "oh hey he my got my kimono all wet!"

Kurama smiles and Chi dresses him and says "go say goodnight to your brother."

"Why does Kurama always take your side, well make sure your little protector is dry next time he knocks me down I'm all wet."

Chi giggles.

"So you think that's funny?" says Ansem, and hugs Chi and gets her all wet.

"Hey now I'm wet!"

Ansem walks into the living room with Chi and they smile as they see Nuriko and Kurama hugging each other fast asleep.

Chi whispers "lets let them sleep" Ansem nods his approval.

It is morning and Ansem takes Kurama out of Nuriko's hands and places him and bed and easily nudges Nuriko awake.

He wakes up confused and bares his teeth at me, but then he remembers where he is.

"Come my son it is time we told your mother off"

"What do you mean Father?" as he starts to stand up.

"You shall see my son, I'm so sorry for all this years of pain for you and I wish I could make up for every second of everyday that we wasted not being together."

Nuriko smiles, we walk out of the room and finally get to Urd's room and raps on the door in till she answers.

"Come in!" Urd yells.

I walk in with every muscle in my body alert. She comes in and gives me a bad look.

"What are you doing here Ansem?"

"I have come to warn you, Urd."

Nuriko gives his father a surprised look.

"Warn me of what?" She laughs slightly.

"If you every touch Nuriko or tell him something that is not true at all or touch Kurama I will kill you or kick you out of the high stone." "Do you understand or should I say it slower?"

Urd glares at Ansem, he haves never talked like that to her. Come Nuriko, as he exits her room.
