She almost sprinted to Shigure's place so she could get dinner. When she got there everyone was sitting around the table. Saru ran to one of the two open spaces and sat. Everyone looked at her and then looked away. Tohru brought out a big bowl of noodles and chicken. Everyone dished up and ate. Saru put her gum on her plate and ate. She only ate the chicken and Yuki stole her noodles. When everyone was done, Saru took their dishes and washed them. Before she did she put a piece of gum in her mouth and chewed it. Doing the dishes was the only chore Saru actually liked. When the dishes were clean, she put them away in their proper places. Then she washed and dried her hands and walked to her room to draw. She worked on a picture of her image of death.

It was a drawing of a girl sitting in the middle of the dark and it was raining all around her. Attached to her was demon wings. The girl was crying and blood covered her hands. She had straight, long, pitch black hair. Her eyes were a blood red and her pupils were like a cats.

When she was done she flipped the page and started to draw her image of happiness.

It was of a teen boy with angel wings. He had a big, golden, halo over his head. His eyes were blue and his hair was wavy, it was so yellow it looked almost gold. He was standing in the middle of a cloud. He had a big smile on his face. In his left hand was a huge, colorful, lollipop and in his other hand was a small picture of a young girl about the boy's age.

Saru looked at it and smiled. Then she thought, 'Now, that's a good drawing,'

Saru flipped the page back and labeled it "The Death Angel,". Then flipped back to the boy and labeled it, "Happiness Is Only A Cloud Away,". Then she signed the bottom of both of them. Someone knocked on the door and Saru looked at the door.

"Come in," Saru granted.

It was Yuki. She looked at him and he smiled at her, "Hey, what are you doing?"

"Drawing," Saru replied.

"Can I see?" Yuki asked walking over and sitting next to Saru.

"Sure," Saru answered handing him her drawing pad.

It was on "The Death Angel". He looked at it and smiled, "That's really good,"

"Flip the page," Saru insisted.

When he did, his eyes got wide. Then he said, "Wow, that's great. It looks a lot like Momiji-Kun,"

"It is," Saru smiled.

"Who was the girl?"

"Me,"

"You're not the death angel,"

"I know I'm not,"

"What am I?"

"Um..It's hard to explain,"

Yuki handed the drawing pad back to Saru and she started to draw.

The picture ended up becoming a Yuki sitting on a throne. He was wearing a prince outfit. He also was wearing a crown and around him were princess, but you couldn't see their faces because it was all black. On the ground, below his feet, were rats. He had a slight smile on his face and one of the rats was on his shoulder. He looked very elegant and in the darkness, there was Tohru, Shigure, and Kyo. They were wearing peasant cloths.

Saru took out her color pencils and colored it in. When she was done, she showed Yuki. Yuki looked amazed, "That's great! What's the title going to be?" Yuki asked.

Saru wrote on the top, "Peace is Where and With Whoever You Want"

Yuki nodded and smiled, "Do Tohru,"

Saru's slight smile went "bye, bye". Saru nodded and flipped the page. Then she started to draw.

This drawing ended up being Tohru kneeling in the middle of a thorny rose field. The roses were piercing her skin, but she still had a huge smile on her face. She was wearing a white silk dress that had blood all over it. On her head was a beautiful crown. Next to her, in the field, was a rat, dog, cat, and rabbit. They were also bloody, except the cat and the rat. The cat and the rat were hissing at each other.

Then Saru colored it in and showed Yuki. He looked at it with wide eyes.

"What's the title of it?" Yuki asked.

Saru wrote "Friends Are Together Through Even The Worst of Times"; Yuki nodded.

"Now how about Shigure's?" Yuki asked.

Saru nodded and started to draw.

The drawing was of Shigure sitting on some steps. It was snowing around him. He was holding a husky puppy that was wrapped in a blanket. Around him were dogs of all shape and size. They looked happy, but Shigure looked annoyed. He was wearing a blue business suit, but coming out of it was a brown tail.

Saru colored it and showed it to Yuki.

"That looks like how he feels," Yuki smiled and then asked. "Do you know who Hatori is?"

"Yes," Saru answered.

"Draw his," Yuki insisted.

Saru flipped the page and started to draw.

She drew Hatori floating. Then on the bottom of the page she drew seaweed, rocks, other ocean bottom creatures. Next to him was a sky blue dragon and seahorses surrounded both of them. Hatori was wearing shorts and had a huge grin on his face.

Saru colored it, titled it "The Dragons of The Sea", and showed Yuki.

"I think that's the only way anyone will see Hatori smile," Yuki laughed.

Saru nodded and started to draw Kyo, sense she knew Yuki wouldn't ask for it.

The drawing was of Yuki sitting on a branch of a tree. One of his legs was hanging off and the other was on the branch. On his lap was a orange tabby and on his shoulder was a tiny white kitten. He was petting the tabby and looking to his left at something. On his leg was a black cat with six toes on each foot and a red collar on. The cat had yellow eyes and was staring straight forward.

She showed it to Yuki, titled it "Cat's and Their Owner,", and he nodded and looked away. Saru looked at the drawing and looked back at Yuki.

"Why did you come in here?" Saru asked.

"Uh, I just wanted to see what you were doing," Yuki responded.

"Tell me the truth, why'd you come in here,"

"I want us to talk. We used to be good friends and talk,"

"Really? You have Tohru to talk to, why me?"

"I like to talk to Tohru about certain things, but some things I want to talk to some one who's family,"

"Oh okay,"

"Why is it that you never talk anymore?"

"I never liked talking in the first place. You talked to me, so I felt obligated to talk,"

"Really?"

Yeah, what do you remember about our past?"

"I remember your Granny took your gum and you transformed,"

"You remember that?"

"Yes,"

Saru grabbed her picture of her and everyone and showed it to Yuki. Yuki took it and looked at it. He smiled as he looked at it.

"Granny took that picture on my birthday," Saru smiled as she looked at it.

"I barley remember that day, but I do remember, beside you transforming, asking you to marry me when I turned eighteen and you said yes," Yuki smiled.

"You remember? Wow, I thought you'd forget all about it," Saru stated looking at Yuki.

Yuki looked at her and said, "No, I would never forget that. I still hold it to you,"

"...What? I'm sorry, but I don't think so. Over the years I became the kind of person to not get close to someone and I know you are to," Saru stated. Yuki nodded and Saru continued, "Over the years I've changed. You have to. We just changed in different parts in our lives,"
