Chapter Three: Kurune's Mansion

He opened the door and the black dog jumped out of him. He ran past Kijo right to Shaje. She jumped and landed on the overwhelmed lady.

"Oh my goodness!" Shaje exclaimed. After a few minutes of getting over the shock of having the dog in her house she spoke, "What should we name her?"

"Whatever you want Shaje. She seems to like you more than me so it's your call."

"Hmm.......what about Kurune?"

"The bathroom is down the hall, and all of you will be getting your own bedrooms of course. Don't worry where I'm going to sleep. I'm all the way on the top floor. If you need anything there's a phone next to the bed, just press one and a maid will come and get you whatever you need." Kurune led the gang back to her house after she had finished her shift, and was giving them the grand tour of her three story mansion.

"Geeze, for someone who sounded bad she sure knows how to live." Hige stated as they turned a corner and started to walk down a hall.

"So, which one of you wants this room?" She asked and opened the first door on her right.
Once the door was open you could clearly see a huge open window that over-looked a lake. The sun was setting and it was a beautiful sight, the red curtains that flowed to the ground were moving playfully with the breeze. Purple blossoms covered the soft bed; they made a little path from the open window to the bed. The carpet was a soft red color and it looked like the room was big enough for more than one person to live in. The dresser top was clean; not a speck of dust anywhere. There was a deep cherry wood end table on the left of the bed which held a lamp and another on the right which was supporting an alarm clock. The hanging light was decorated with red flowers.

"Oh darn it I had hoped that the maids would close the window so the blossoms wouldn't come in."

"I'll take it!" Toboe yelled, not letting anyone say anything.

"Alright, this one is yours. Remember if you need anything just press one on the phone. I think your phone was moved into the bathroom but if you prefer it in here you can move it."

The black dog had been living with the couple for about two years had gone by. Kijo got a different job. Now he was a scientist working on the latest research about DNA and Shaje was a mother to a one year old child named Asami. In spite of the years they had spent together, Shaje and Kurune kept in a tight bond. Shaje was still unsure about how they were connected but it just felt right.

One day Kijo came home early from work. As usual Kurune went to greet him at the door but he ran in with such contentment that he ran right past her and to Shaje who was in the kitchen.

"Honey guess what?!" he hollered.

"What is it? And why are you home so early?" Shaje asked, picking Asami up from the counter and putting her on the floor. The little girl crawled from her mom to the doorway and sat next to where Kurune was laying down.

"The research that I was working on got to the state. And they said that they would be willing to buy it off of me for ten million dollars!" This got the both of them all excited and the conversation continued.

It was decided that they would sell his research and move into a new house. He also started working for the government.

"The next room is around the corner." Kurune said. Toboe had stayed in his room to get used to it so he was no longer getting the grand tour.

"So, Kurune, how long have you been living in this house?" Hige asked and put his hands in his pockets.

"Well since I was, hm....let's see, about thirteen." Kurune walked a little ways and opened a door on her left.

"This one doesn't have the same view as the other but it still is pretty." She stated and opened the door.

This room was a little like the other except that the window was closed and a long blue curtain held the light out.

Kurune flipped on the light switch and pulled the curtains on their rods to reveal a small courtyard area. Since the sun didn't set on that side of the house the room was a little darker, and needed the light. Everything was about the same except for a small desk in the right corner, next to the window. It held a phone and a laptop computer that was turned off. The color scheme was blue instead of red, and the hanging light wasn't as elaborate. The bed was on the right side of the room instead of the left like in the other room.

"As I said it doesn't have the best view but it still is a nice room." Kurune pulled her hair to one side and leaned against the wall.

"Hell I'll take it." Hige stated and walked to the bed. He pulled back the covers and flopped down, turning off the light on the left end table.

"Good night." Kurune stated and shut the door. The other 3 headed on down the hall.
There was one last bedroom door on the right; the other door was the bathroom, and further down the hall was a set of stairs. Tsume got to the last bedroom before Kurune did. He opened the door and shut it with a slam, not saying anything. A short silence followed.
"Well, I see that there are no more rooms on this floor." Kiba said.

"Yes, there's one upstairs on the third floor." Kurune led him upstairs and to a door on the left. (The stairs were in the shape of a U)

"I hoped that you would be the one to get this room." Kurune stated and smiled at Kiba, she opened the door.

This room was much bigger than the other two that she had shown him. The room had a gigantic bed with black sheets and a nice closet. (not that Kiba would need it or anything) There was also a desk with a lamp a few books and a phone. This room also had its curtains open but the window was shut. On the right side of the window were doors that lead out to a rather large balcony. There was a nice big mirror on the left of the bed and a door to the right showed the way to the private bathroom.

"Wow." Kiba added and walked into the room.

"The balcony is connected to the one outside my room. This is my favorite room." Kurune walked over to the doors and opened them letting a slight breeze enter the room.
