Chapter 10 Children of the Bow
"Athrun Zala!" shouted a young male voice as it came closer. When the boy was twenty yards away, you could see that he had short black hair that was spiked up in places and red eyes. Athrun also saw he carried no weapons but a bow and quiver of arrows. The boy pulled off his bow and strung an arrow on the string, and let it fly.
Athrun drew his sword and cut the arrow evenly in half as the boy came up to him. When he finally reached the party, he stopped, panting from the quick sprint. "Aw, Athrun! I thought I finally could beat you," said a young man at most year younger than Lacus. "Shinn, you should know by now that you can't beat me." Athrun said with a smile. Shinn retrieved the two pieces of arrow. "Who, straight through the middle this time too!" he said, his red eyes smiling. "Kira!" shouted a female voice as a blonde girl with magenta eyes ran up to the samurai and embraced him. Kira smiled uneasily. "Hey Stellar…" Shinn came up and quickly pried the blonde girl off of Kira. "Stellar," the boy said a bit angrily. She looked over at Shinn and smiled brightly. "Don't worry Shinn, you're always number one in my book!" she said placing her arms around her friend. "Is it just me, or is Stellar more 'lovey' lately?" asked Cagalli. "Yeah, last time she was real moody and bit our heads off when we made her angry. But now she's going around hugging people." added Athrun.
The magenta eyed girl turned around with a smile, and then dropped it as flames filled her eyes. The samurai took a step back. She walked over to where Mizu, Kitsu, and Lacus were standing. "I haven't met you guys before," she said as her pink eyes seemed to scan over them. "So, what're your names?"
"Lacus." the pink haired woman answered.
"Kitsu!" the little girl cried out.
"Uh, Mizu." the boy said.
Stellar smiled. "Well you're all my new friends too. C'mon! Miss Murrue's has been dying to see you guys again!" the girl shouted happily as she grabbed Athrun and Cagalli's hands while Shinn helped Kira and Lacus and the kids walked by the trio back down the hill towards the large building. As they neared, they saw there was a woman waiting for them by the front gate. "Oh Athrun! Cagalli...Kira!" she shouted as she ran over to them. She hugged the two lily samurai first quickly, then grabbed Kira and hugged him tight, her head resting against his, and her chest pressed up against his, though she was about five inches taller. "Uh, Ms. Murrue," he chocked out. She opened her eyes and let him go, "I'm sorry, Kira-kun, but I haven't seen you, Athrun, and Cagalli since you were fourteen. My how you've all grown!" she said, turning to the new members. "Oh, you three are new aren't you?" she asked smiling. The woman had shoulder length brown hair, and her eyes were a honey color. Her smile was very warm and welcoming. "My name is Lacus Clyne, and these are Mizu and Kitsu." The orchid Hukari said happily, holding the little girl. Murrue smiled. "Well, Shinn and Stellar still have some more work to do before the sun sets, but I'm sure Athrun and Cagalli can help you. And Kira, you and your lady friend can help me in the kitchen. The children can do what they please." With that said, the woman turned, grabbing Kira and Lacus, and pulled them with her into the large Inn.
"Why is it that we always get the work?" asked Cagalli. Athrun walked up and slapped her back side. "Cause Kira is hurt, and we've always done the work. Ever since we left, Shinn and Stellar have been doing it, so how about we help them?" he asked, before getting smacked on the head by a blonde samurai. "HENTAI!" she shouted before walking off towards Shinn and Stellar. Athrun rubbed his head, and ran to catch up to them.
Murrue pulled the two into a large kitchen. The woman pulled them over to a large table with many ingredients and bowls, and kitchen utensils. "Okay, Kira, I want you to cut those vegetables, and Lacus, you can start making the bread. And I'll do the rest." the woman then ran to the counter and started cutting, and washing, and other stuff at the same time. Lacus looked to Kira with a confused smile, and then he replied, "She always was good at giving orders." Lacus walked over to the counter and looked over the ingredients while Kira easily picked up a knife and started cutting three carrots.
A little over two hours later, the sun nearly gone, the three stopped moving about the kitchen as the last of the bread dough was put into the oven. "Well, this should be done in a few minutes, you two go and get the others will you?" asked the woman, fanning herself with her hand. The two smiled, and headed outside.
Athrun brought the axe down on the block of wood and it split apart evenly. Cagalli helped Shinn tie a bundle of hay, and carried it to the barn behind the Archangel Inn. Stellar brought up another bucket out of the well, and poured it into a large jug, which Mizu carried over to a large shed where many jugs of fresh water were being kept cold. Kitsu sat and watched the 'older kids' work while she just sat there and played with pieces of grass. Stellar hauled up another bucket, when Kira and Lacus appeared. "Hey, Miss Murrue said you guys can come in now, people are already staring to show up." Stellar groaned. She had to be a waitress for the many people who came in everyday, and some were around her age who were on Shinn's Black List. Shinn groaned because there were more idiots to deal with lately ever since that Knight from Europe checked in.
They all walked in, Kitsu still sticking to Athrun, (Why? We will never know.) and Mizu walking in-between Cagalli and Stellar. They walked in through the back and Stellar quickly tied a light pink apron around her waist before heading into the room where all the guests were. Shinn followed, with a red apron round his waist. Lacus helped Murrue take most of the food and place it on trays, while Athrun, Cagalli, and Kira just sat at the counter while eating something Murrue had made them. Kitsu and Mizu were also eating.
Then, they heard it. The loud shout of, "HENTAI!" and a, "How DARE YOU?" from Shinn and Stellar. They all poked their heads around the corner of the kitchen doorway, with their heads on top of each other. Then Murrue walked over to her two hired help, to see a flustered Stellar, an angry Shinn, and a semi-dazed Mwu La Flaga. "How dare you, you sick Hentai?" Shinn shouted loudly. Mwu perked up when he noticed Murrue. "Ahh, Murrue Ramius, what a pleasure it is to see you tonight." he said, his boyish blue eyes sparkling. Everyone in the room chuckled, the man from Europe was at it again; trying to sweet talk Murrue Ramius. "Mr. La Flaga-" He smiled. "Please, call me Mwu or honey." he added. Murrue turned red in anger. "Mr. La Flaga, please do not harass my staff," but she was cut off yet again by the arrogant blonde. "You know Murrue, out of all of the women I've seen, you are the most beautiful of them all in Europe, and of Japan, you are the most fair." Murrue's honey colored eyes showed embarrassment, but then turned to anger when she felt something touching her backside, and rubbing lightly. Her eyes flashed angrily, and she grabbed a drink from Stellar's tray and poured it over the man's head. "You will not show me that disrespect, you will address me as Ms. Ramius, and you will leave my staff alone." she said darkly. Mwu smiled boyishly and flashed a toothy grin. The brown haired woman turned around curtly, muttering a few words underneath her breath, with Shinn and Stellar following.
Mwu watched as the woman walked away, enjoying how her hips swayed as she walked. How I want to feel those… he thought to himself. His companion reached over and smacked him on the head. "He Flaga, you keep this up, we'll get kicked out of this hotel too." said a man with tan skin and blue hair. "Whatever Murdoch, (Sorry, don't know the full name.) he said, taking a swig from his glass mug.
When the three reached the kitchen, the others laughed; Mizu rolling around on the floor. "Yeah, that was very funny, thank you for finding it hilarious." Murrue said flatly. "Oh, you guys should get up to your rooms, Kira and Lacus can have room seventeen, Athrun and Cagalli have room eighteen, Shinn, you and Stellar can share the room like you always have, And Mizu and Kitsu can have the room next to the kitchen with me. Here are your keys." the woman handed each of them small bronze keys.
They divided in the hallway, and went into their rooms. Kitsu and Mizu had gone into the room they would share with Murrue already. As Cagalli closed the door after saying goodnight to the others, she turned and saw that there was only one bed in the room. She took a quick glance over at Athrun. "If you do anything, even by just saying it, I will hurt you so bad, your sword will be too scared to let you carry it." she said darkly.
Downstairs, in the kitchen beneath the lily samurai's room, Murrue was chuckling softly to herself. She had given her foster children the rooms with only one bed, except for her room and Shinn and Stellar's room. Sure, Cagalli would be angry, but Murrue could handle it.
Kira and Lacus had no problem, if you know what I mean, and Lacus quickly slid under the covers on the side facing the wall. Kira placed the Strike down against the wall next to the bed so he could grab it quickly if he needed to.
Shinn pulled off his red shirt and black pants to put on a gray shirt and short gray pants. Stellar put on a light blue kimono and crawled into her bed. Shinn got into his and blew out the candle.
Mizu tucked his little sister into one of the two beds in the room. He then got in next to her and fell asleep, smelling the sweet scent of her hair. It was just like their mother's. He closed his brown eyes and fell into a deep sleep, much better to be in a nice comfortable bed with his friends just above him in a safe hotel, then in an abandoned village where anyone and anything could jump out at him.
The moon was high above the village, displaying many stars in its wake. The silver disc in the sky was full, bathing the streets of Junius City in moonlight. A lone figure stood in the light, a silhouette of shadow. A blade at their side. Red eyes shining maliciously. Brown hair in a mess. Dark red robe torn and blood stained. He smiled, and slightly opened his blade from its sheath.
The two lay in the bed, Cagalli nearly falling over from the side near the window. "Cag, what is it with you and Lacus?" asked Athrun, his back to her, staring at the wall while the woman's gold eyes were fixed to the ceiling. "Hum? Oh, well, I don't know." she stated bluntly. She could hear Athrun grunt as he rolled over and looked over to her. "I know it's more than that." Cagalli's eyes flickered with some emotion, and then she turned to Athrun. "Well, Kira is my little brother, and now, I feel it's a competition to stay close to him." Athrun sighed. "Cagalli, you're his sister, older sister. He would never put a girl ahead of you. You're his family, he always loves you." the Justice Samurai said, running a hand through his blue locks. Cagalli sighed, "Yeah, I know. But what if she hurts him? Or breaks his heart, or does something to him? I would never live with myself if she hurt him right under my nose." Athrun, starting to get annoyed, replied back, "But Lacus isn't like that. You should see how she clings to Kira. If she lost him, she probably couldn't survive. I think she needs him more than he needs her. But they seem to love each other, don't they?" he asked smiling. Cagalli looked over at the window. "Yeah, I guess…Athrun." she said, getting out from under the covers and going over to her sword. "Cagalli?" he asked concerned. "There's a force out there, I don't like it. C'mon." With that said, the blonde woman walked out of the room with Athrun following.
(A few minutes before)
Kira was about to drift off to sleep with the scent of lavender from Lacus's hair, when he felt a pain in his chest. He sat up, and cringed as his seed bloomed without him controlling it. "What?" he asked himself in a troubled voice, just as Lacus started whimpering in her sleep. "It's him," he concluded under his breath. He grabbed the Strike, and pushed it through the belt at his waist. Before walking out, he glanced behind him at the woman trembling on the bed. "Don't worry, it'll be over soon." he said, closing the door.
(A little after that,-7 seconds)
Shinn and Stellar rose simultaneously. Stellar glanced at Shinn, who had a serious look on his face. They got out of their beds, slipped into normal clothes quickly, grabbed their quivers and bows, and walked out of the room quietly.
(Before all that-man I'm skipping around a lot, hehe)
The noble knight from Europe arose from his dream of him and Murrue Ramius kissing passionately, and the woman asking to be his. He furrowed his brow, there had to be a strong force around to wake him up from a wonderful dream. He grabbed his two swords and strapped them to his side, and left the room he shared with Kasey Murdoch. (Shun me if you can't tell me what the dude's full name is.)
As he exited the hotel, he ducked quickly to avoid a blow from a sword meant to cut off his head. "So, Kira we meet again, hey, you're not the Strike Samurai!" an angry voice said that nearly chilled Mwu to his bones. "No, I'm someone much better." he said, drawing his two swords, and running at his assailant. He succeeded in cutting an 'X' through the man's chest, which knocked the man down to the ground. But he rose again slowly, laughing hard. Mwu stepped back. "What's wrong? Scared? Cause you should be…" the brunette said seductively, going after the blonde knight, and attacking him. Mwu could only knock him down a few more times, the stranger getting up each time laughing and giving the blonde another slash on his body; knocking the two swords away from him.
When he received a twentieth blow, the blue eyed man fell to the ground. The strange samurai chuckled. "And now, you DIE!" he raised his sword, but two arrows pierced his chest. He looked up angrily and saw two teenagers standing one hundred feet away, both holding their bows with more arrows pulled on the strings. The man frowned. "Bad idea kiddies." he said, before running at them with his blade spread out in front of him, aiming for the girl's stomach.
