Chapter Three
Written by: Marik's girl
Fifteen year old Anri Mars looked at her sickly mother. She sat on the bed and held one of her pale sickly hands. Even though her mother was on her death bed, her beautiful blue eyes were as bright as when she was once healthy. Her hair was a bright red and long and curly. But her once healthy skin turned pale because of her sickness. She moved one of her shaky hands put to her daughter neck length red curly hair. "Anri... promise me two things." she said softly. Anri nodded her head. "When I die... I want you to grow your hair long." The teenager blinked her jade green eyes. "But why?" she asked with surprise. "Strong men like women with long hair." she said with a smile.
"..." Her daughter stayed silent for a moment. "You want me to find a strong man?" she asked softly, her mother nodded. "A strong man that will take care of you, protect you and love you. I want you to find a honorable man, Anri." She then moved her hand away from her daughter and laid it back down on the bed. "Know that I will always love you and that your father loved you very much... you were his pride and joy and he still loves you, even in death." she said with a smile. "Will you keep this promise?" her mother asked. Anri could only nod. "I promise, mommy." Anri said with a smile. "Thank you." with that Minako Mars closed her eyes and her last breath was taken.

Anri woke with a start, wet tears ran down her face. She moved her arm and covered her eyes. She hadn't dreamed of her mother in such a long time. "A strong man that will take care of you, protect and love you. I want you to find a honorable man."
' Jake is anything but honorable. ' she thought to herself as she thought back to her mother's words. She then moved her arm away from her eyes and she sat up in her bed; she glanced around and found herself alone. "Where is … !?" Anri jade green eyes widen when she remembered what happen just hours ago. She rushed off of her and Jake's bed and ran into the living room. ' Did- did that really happen? Was Jake killed? ' she thought with wide eyes. ' If so, where is his body? And what happen to that warrior? ' she didn't know what else what to call him... a demon maybe? She shook her head at that thought. She remember he was like the night and he saved her from her abusive boyfriend. He was more like a dark angel, a protector - a honorable warrior that would save any female in trouble. ' I wonder who or what he is... '
Anri felt no pity for Jake's death, a part of her would have... if he had not beaten her, like he had. She felt relieved! ' If I ever find whoever it was that saved me, I want to thank him. '

"SISTER!"
Tabitha groaned as her little brother jumped onto her bed and on top of her. She open her left eye as she frowned at the hyper boy. "Hiro, what is with the yelling?" she asked as she open her other tired eyes. "You said you would take me to the park! You promised!" she looked over at her clock and it read and it read six o'clock in the morning. She groaned. "Hiro, it's six in the morning! It's too early to go to the park." she explained. "But you promised!" she sighed as she tried to sit up with her little brother sitting on her lap. "I also said after training. You know I don't start training until seven. Don't worry I'll take you after training." she said as she pinched his cheek. He blushed. "But you always train for so looonng!" he gave a cute little whine as he said the last part. She just giggled. "It's only til nine-thirty, Hiro."
He gave a cute pout at her words. She just kissed his forehead and then he hugged her after wards.

Tabitha Anderson hated Saturdays. Sure a lot of teenagers her age loved Saturdays because it was a off day of school and they could go to the mall or the movies or other places. But not Tabitha...you see, on her mother's side of the family - they came from a long line of ninja's. But her great-grandmother married a normal kind of guy when she was sixteen. She then had her grandfather who she trained in the way of the ninja and that was passed down to her mother and then herself. But even though Tabitha knew how to fight and defend herself. She didn't like fighting. She only did it if she had to... and her great-grandmother continued to train her since she was really little. But their was one thing that she hated...
Marriage.
According to her, Tabitha was of age to get married. She never really said anything about it when she was with Aaron, well at least most of the time. She would remember her great-grandmother words. "I want you to marry a strong and honorable man. Someone that you can give strong heirs too." Tabitha frowned at that thought. After Aaron, she wasn't to sure that she would ever find a truthful and honorable man. ' I don't think anyone like that exist... at least not anyone. ' she was still hurting after Aaron cheated on her... because she was really in love with him and she thought he felt the same. Maybe she just wasn't meant to be with anyone? She felt a tug on her hand and she looked down and saw the worried look on her little brothers face.
"Why are you sad?" she just smiled at Hiro. "Nothing is wrong Hiro... do want some ice cream?" his onyx eyes brighten at the word ice cream. "Yeah!"
:::::
"Why are you sad?" Rakesh titled his head as he watched the the little ooman male look up at his sister. Rakesh watched as the ooman female just smiled at her little brother as she held his hand. She reassuring him that she was fine. He could clearly see that she was trying to hide her feelings of what she really felt. Rakesh was confused as to why she hid her feelings for - didn't ooman's normally show how they felt? This one was odd. And to why he was following the young female once again... he was confused as to why he really was following her. She wasn't prey that he could hunt and show his anger in the heat of battle. He had never really paid much attention to the female ooman's. He had no desire for them, unlike his mate. He knew that one day he would have to mate with another female of his race... but their was very little left of the Yautja females. For sometime now, they have been dying off. The reason why they were suddenly dying off was unknown to the healer - it was a mystery really.
He had heard that some had taken on female ooman's as mates. But he never wanted to go that far. No ooman female could ever match a female Yautja... and most of the time, he felt that no other female could match his mate. It was very uncommon for a Yautja male and female to be actually in love, as the ooman term was. He never really understood that ooman term - but he cared deeply for his mate. So why did, in some sense that this ooman child remind him of his dear mate? He shook his head, his dread locks moving back and forth as he did no. Soon he would leave this back water planet and then search for the ooman male that killed his mate and pup. And he would forget about this little ooman female.
He then heard screaming.
"It's a monster!" Rakesh rushed to the ooman scream and found the ooman pup hiding behind his sibling and scared look on his face. His sister stood in front of him, protecting him. But held a shock/scared look on her face. Their in front of them was a hard meat. It's sharp tail had went though the ice man's stomach. What was a hard meat doing here?
End Chapter Three
Okay a cliffhanger … XD I had no idea what I wanted to do with this chapter.
