Yes! I'm on winter break and now I have to update :) And it is almost the holidays! Hopefully everyone's going to have a good holiday.

SO let's get on with the story.


"Hey Yuki?"

"Hum?"

"Are you finished making the bracelet yet?"

Yuki looked over his shoulder at Nova...who was currently lounging on Yuki's bed eating some chips from a bag that Tsukumo gave him after breakfast. Everyone agreed that Nova stay with Yuki as Hotsuma and Shusei return home (Manly to avoid Hotsuma's anger that they didn't call them earlier). Yuki can still hear angry voices down stairs.

"Just about." Yuki replied as he went back to work on the charm.

Nova yawned and got out up and walked over to him and leaned on the back of the chair. Looking over Yuki's head, Nova watched as his best friend laid the screwdriver on the desk and lifted the finished bracelet up to Nova's eye level. The bracelet was a silver band decorated with red rubies. A silver cross dangled from the band by a thick but transparent thread.

"What do you think?" Yuki asked as he turned in his chair slightly and placed the jewelry in the duras' waiting hand.

"Not bad." Nova replied after he slipped the bracelet on his arm. He raised his arm to the light of the sun from the balcony to inspect the shine of the red gems.

Yuki smiled and rose for his chair and headed for the door. He hesitantly placed a hand on the door handle and looked over his shoulder at Nova.

"Do you want to go down stairs now?"

Nova shrugged as he joined his friend at the door.

" 'Don't know. It's quiet now. But that's kind of... unnerving."

Yuki nodded and opened the door and walked down the hall. Nova glanced at the hall mirror as they walked by. He was glad that kuroto lent him some new clothes. He now wore black jeans and a black T-shirt with a gray long sleeve underneath. He glanced at Yuki and noted his what he was wearing. Light blue jeans and a simple white dress shirt.

They soon stopped and the door to the living room. To Yuki, he was just welcoming his friends back home. Yet Nova felt like he was going to his execution.

As Yuki opened the door the two were greeted by an over excited Sodom.

"Yuki!" The young familiar cried happily as he ran to hug him. Nova watched as the brunette laughed a little before patting Sodom's head tenderly. He tensed when Sodom turned his head towards him and quickly grabbed his arm.

"Yay! And mister, too! Hug!"

Yuki laughed as Sodom hugged a shocked Nova's waist. Senshiro also chuckled at the look on the young duras' face.

"Good afternoon, Yuki." Shusei greeted from his spot on the couch.

"Oh, welcome back Shusei-kun...Hotsuma-kun?"

Yuki watched as Hotsuma made his way towards Nova with a glare. Nova didn't even flinch when he spoke.

"How can we really trust you? You sure you're not just plotting something? After all you're one of them. "

"Hotsuma." Shusei warned as he got up but Yuki grabbed his hand and shook his head and gazed at Nova.

Nova meet Yuki's eyes and sighed deeply.

"First; I'm only half Opast. Second; I swear on my life I have never lied about my past with Yuki. And third; I'm not plotting anything. Does that answer your questions. detective moron?"

"What did you just say?"

"I answered your questions. Do you have any?" Nova, ignoring Hotsuma, turned to Shusei.

Shusei shook his head.

"I'f you can kindly tell us everything you know I won't complain."

" Gladly. So where should I start?"

"Why not start with what you found out about the demon king?" Kuroto offered. Leaning on the window pane.

Nova nodded and leaned against the fireplace.

"The demon king is planning on gaining more forces to help do his dirty work."

"What kind of forces?" Luka asked as he stood closely behind Yuki.

"Human. He's planning on using humans to do his work of bring chaos into the world."

The room then grew quiet for a few minutes. Toko was the first to speak.

"Humans? Can he control them?"

"With the miasma. It's the poison that your all immune to."

"If we're immune to it what's the problem?" Hotsuma argued with his arms crossed over his chest.

"I mean you're all spared from being turned into puppets." Nova motioned towards the window with his hand.

"I meant the whole world is not safe."


Sorry It's a little short. But since its close to christmas, it's been a little busy. Plus I have to buy my dad's presents and help my mom with making a cake for a party(two cakes actually -_-')

Anyway, I promise I'll continue after christmas. I'll be working on the whole scene so be expected to read a little Q and A and to see a Protective Luka.

And possibly a quick look to Yuki's new power (That I think he should have ;)

Bye for now :)
