Deadly Secrets of Love
Ch. 2
Kusanagi was sure he was going to get Murakumo this time. I'll just sneak up behind him and hit him with a surprise attack. Kusanagi was really excited.
He jumped up from the ground and thrust his blade into…air. Murakumo was floating overhead.
"Do you still think that an imperfect soul like you could just sneak attack the king of Aragami?" Murakumo laughed to himself.
"What the hell are you doing here, I thought the Aragami were gone." Kusanagi prepared to pounce up and attack Murakumo. Murakumo stopped smiling and floated down onto the branch that Kusanagi stood on.
"I don't know what's happened, but your child has something to do with it!" Murakumo glared at Kusanagi.
"What are you talking about?" Kusanagi paused. "I don't have a child!" Kusanagi put his blades away; he realized that Murakumo had not come to fight him.
---------------------------------------
Murakumo was shocked, "If you are not the father of the new Kushinada, then who is?" He was quite curious now.
"What new Kushinada? Momiji is the Kushinada." Kusanagi glared at Murakumo.
"No, I just saw them both, Momiji and her child. Your child sent me here to tell you of her existence." Murakumo looked down at the ground. "Why, I don't know, I guess she sensed that you didn't know of her."
"Take me to them." Kusanagi ordered, but he looked as if he would cry.
"No, that I cannot do. I don't think that the Kushinada, your daughter, would want that." Murakumo turned to leave. "I don't know why, but I have this strange feeling about your child. She is different, and I will watch her closely if I were you."
"What do you mean? Fine, if you won't take me to them I'll find them myself!" Kusanagi turned to jump off.
"What's the rush? If it was so important that you knew about it, wouldn't Momiji have told you?"
Kusanagi's eyes widened, and he was frozen in place. Murakumo was right! Why didn't Momiji tell him that she was pregnant? Why didn't she mention anything? Was she trying to keep it a secret from him, and if she was why?
"Kusanagi, something is strange here. Your blood is that of Orochi, and her blood is that of the Kushinada. I fear that something might of happened in your daughter due to the mixing of Orochi's blood and hers." Murakumo seemed quite concerned.
Kusanagi put on his trademark cocky smirk and turned to face Murakumo, "what, are you afraid a more superior race has been formed?"
Murakumo narrowed his eyes. "No, I can't believe I share the same blood with such a moron like you. Are you not the least bit concerned of what she is? A Kushinada, or an aragami, she just might well be a different species than any of us!"
Kusanagi could tell that he was being serious. "What do you want me to do about it? I just barely learned that I'm a dad! And not only that, but a father to a Kushinada!" If Murakumo was going to yell he had every right to yell right back.
Murakumo's eyes widened and his head went back about a half an inch. "I don't know what to do with your daughter, but why are you so concerned about the fact that your daughter is a Kushinada?"
"Duh, you idiot, they are born to die. I have to live with the fact that one day I might have to sacrifice my own child to save the rest of humanity!"
"Oh."
"What? I would have thought that you would be a little more worried then that. Aren't you still trying to re-establish your stupid kingdom?"
Murakumo turned his head in the direction from which he had just come, 'your task is done. Do not waste time, I have other things that you could be doing.' It was the voice of the child.
"What, Aren't you going to answer me?"
"I'm afraid I am going to have to cut this meeting short, farewell." With that Murakumo took of in the air and vanished.
"Wait," Kusanagi tried, but Murakumo was already gone. "What was his rush?" Kusanagi asked the empty night air.
--------------------
I slept peacefully until I felt the warm rays of the sun caress my backside. I cracked open my eyes and looked at the small innocent at my side. She is so small, I thought to myself as a slight smile crept onto my face. The child began to stir.
"Good morning, sweet heart." I tapped Kaede's nose with one of my long slender fingers.
The child laughed happily. She grabbed at my finger, but I kept it just out of reach. "Silly girl!" I laughed along with her. She's a gift from the gods, I just wish…no, how could I think that, Kusanagi won't accept her. The smile faded from my face as I thought of how I had left Kusanagi at my apartment so rudely.
The child's laughing stopped and her head turned a bit toward the door. I looked at it for a minute before I heard the knock of a visitor. "Who is it?"
"Ms. Fujimia, your breakfast is served in the dining room." Came the voice of the butler, Jake.
"Thank you, Jake," I said with a silent sigh of relief. She heard his feet shuffle and then finally leave.
"So, Kaede, what do you think? Should we get up and go get something to eat?" I tickled her tummy and began to climb out of bed.
Kaede looked up at me with her brilliant green eyes, and smiled slightly. She looked so much like my sister. I put on my robe and scooped the child into my arms.
"My dear sweet Kaede." I hummed to her.
The child fell back to sleep in my arms. She acted like she never slept. I worry about her all the time, about leaving her here with these scientists, but I know it's for the best. Kusanagi would just see her as a threat.
I love them both, but how am I to choose. Kusanagi just wants to protect me, but how could he see Kaede as a threat to anyone. She's just a little angel all the time. I smiled down at her and continued my way to the dinning room.
"I wonder…what do you suppose Kusanagi is doing right now?" I asked Kaede, and her sleeping figure just smiled.
