Found Out

Nakada did the same thing she had done the other night. She visited her plants, all of the Signs, her brothers and sisters, Hiei and Caralama. She now went in to Yoko's room and saw him sleeping in his bed. She summoned a chair and sat at the side of his bed. She gently caressed his cheek with her hand and cupped it moving her thumb back and forth under his lower lip. Then she moved her hand lower to his pendant and let it rest right above it. The pendants that they wore could protect them and other things but if they started to fade it meant the person that was wearing them was dieing. Nakada hadn't looked at Yoko's pendant the last time she was there but now that she looked at it she noticed that it had faded. It had the head of a sliver fox and used to be a bright silver colour and it was even brighter when he had become an immortal. But it wasn't shining as brightly now because he only had one year to live. And every attack he had the lies would destroy some part of him and he would become weaker. A tear began to fall from Nakada's eyes as she closed her eyes and began to silently cry. She hadn't noticed that Yoko was beginning to wake up.

Yoko opened his eyes slowly and felt a hand on his chest. He saw the cloaked figure sitting beside him and saw a few tears fall from the figures hidden eyes. His nose twitched as he took in the figures scent. Yoko tried his best to hide his excitement when he recognized the scent to be Nakada's. His hand twitched getting ready to take hold of hers.

Nakada still hadn't noticed that Yoko had woken up but all of a sudden she felt a warm hand on top of hers and take hold of it. Nakada looked at him and saw that he was awake and looking at stared at him as he began to sit up. He still had a hold of her hand but with his free hand he slid the hood off of her head.

Her silver blue tinted hair gleamed as Yoko slid the hood off all the way from her head. He saw the tears on her face and gently brushed them away and cupped her cheek. Nakada hadn't made a move to resist him in the slightest but new tears were showing up in her eyes. Yoko sat on the bed with his legs over the side and gently pulled Nakada over to his side. She resisted a little for the first time but she still went to his side.

He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and laid his head on top of hers. Silent tears fell from her eyes as she held on to him and cried silently into his shoulder, "Hush its all right Nakada. Hush just let it out," Yoko kept on saying this until Nakada had finally stopped.

"I'm sorry Yoko," Nakada said in a tired voice. Her voice sounding so sad as she spoke.

"What is there to be sorry about? You didn't do anything wrong," he asked in a soft voice trying to calm her down. Nakada didn't say anything and just sat there in his arms.

Then Nakada looked at the clock on his table she jerked up and tried to pull away from him. The sun was going to rise in a few minutes, "Please Yoko you have to let me go the sun is going to rise soon!"

He still held Nakada by the hand and saw that her pendant was beginning to fade and she was getting weaker, "Nakada what is happening to you?" he asked worried at what was happening to her.

"It's part of the new deal I have to leave now! Please Yoko let me go!" tears were appearing in her eyes as she became more desperate.

Yoko still held her still and said, "I will let you go if you promise me you will come back tonight," Nakada looked at him and nodded. He let her go and she used all of her speed to leave the home and swim to Deaths'.

She had made it to the door when the sun started to rise. The male death helped her into the mountain and Nakada stopped breathing and her heart stopped beating and her pendant's glow went out. Death carried her bridal style up to her room and took her cloak off and laid her into the bed. "That was to close for comfort," Death said to himself as he went to talk to his sisters.

Yoko stood there in his room and then his heart began to hurt. He pressed a hand to it but he knew it wasn't an attack. He sat down on his bed and a tear fell from his face, "Nakada?" he whispered to himself, "Please don't be dead please," but Yoko felt so hallow inside that he had to lay down in the bed and he closed his eyes with more tears falling down from them as he fell asleep. Jennah was going to Yoko's room because she had felt Nakada's presence there. She saw that the door was open and she went in. Yoko was there on his bed asleep but his pillow was wet. Jennah sat in the chair Nakada had summoned and looked at him. He made no sounds as tears fell from his eyes as he slept and Jennah carefully wiped away his tears with a white cloth she had summoned up.

He woke up and saw her, "Nakada was here," he began.

"We know she was here Yoko. Why are you crying?" she asked in a calm voice.

Yoko sat up on the bed, "I think she's dead Jennah," she hadn't realized it before but he had his hand over his heart and it was still there.

"Yoko are you having another attack?" she asked looking at him a bit worried. He just shook his head. Tears were appearing in Jennah's eyes as well now, "Are you sure she's dead Yoko?" she asked hoping what he said wasn't true. She remembered what April had said last night when they all found out that Caralama was supposed to be Nakada's child. She was a bit shocked and sad but she said she some how knew that Caralama was Nakada's daughter. No one had hated her though they all knew that she had done it so that there would be less confusion. Jennah looked at Yoko and saw that he was looking at the ceiling.

"Yoko you look so tired didn't you get any sleep last night?" she saw him give a weak smile and chuckled a bit.

"No Jennah I didn't," he paused and smiled a little, "I spent the night holding Nakada. Then she went all crazy saying that she had to leave because the sun was rising and something about the new deal with Deaths. She was getting weaker and her pendant was losing its glow," he turned his head and looked at Jennah. The smile on his face was gone, "She kept on telling me to let her go because she had to go. I said I wouldn't let go until she had promised to meet me tonight. She nodded and I let go. I few minutes later... she's...dead," the last few words were hard for him to say as a lump grew in his throat and his eyes were burning with tears but he didn't let any of them go.

All of a sudden his chest began to hurt and he pressed both hands to it. Jennah sent out a message to all the Signs and they were there immediately. The lies were attacking a lot faster now and they seemed to have gotten smarter as well. They were attacking anything that came close to them. The Signs destroyed many of the lies before they finally made there way back to the heart.

Yoko was unconscious when Caralama and Hiei came. The Signs left and Caralama sat on the bed with Hiei beside her. The Signs had healed what was damaged so he would be waking up soon. Caralama held on to Yoko's hand and began to talk to Hiei "Hiei I think Nakada is dead," he looked at her and she looked back at him, "I don't know how to explain it but I just feel like a part of me is dead and it died when the sun came up," he held her close and carried her to the window sill and she fell asleep. Hiei looked out into the sea and suddenly he fell asleep as well. The rest of the Signs were oblivious of what was happening in Yoko's bedroom.

The four deaths had some how gotten Hiei, Yoko, and Caralama to fall asleep and they would wake up when Nakada was back.
