Hello, everyone. The Weaver of Chaos is here once again with Chapter 8 of Into the Rabbit Hole.
Reviews: Insomniac1970 I'm glad you take the time from your stories to read mine, and I'm glad that you like the direction I'm going with Kurumu and the story in general, I hope I don't disappoint.
Slashburn Glad you're having fun. Using the Mirror to split the Mokas for a little sumthin-sumthin is an idea I've been throwing around lately, but if I do use it, it will be much later in the story, as I want each first coupling to be very special, because that is how Tsukune would do it, being the caring guy he is.
Fluorescent cow Thank you for reading fully through this twice, and I am honored to be the first author you have graced with a review.
Also, a thank you to the reviewers telling me just how much they enjoy the story. I will try to keep the quality high for you all.

And now, on with the show!
Alexander had been preparing tea in his office when he felt the unmistakable surge of energy from the forest. "Hmm, it seems Tsukune has found himself in another predicament, does it not, Mina?" He set down the cups and 'listened' as the power faded before vanishing all-together. "Mina, be a dear and prepare a few things for me." He looked out the window toward the forest. "I must go speak with the Headmaster."
-Forest-
The girls rushed to Tsukune's side. He was laying face down in a pile of dead leaves, completely unmoving. The new girl, her eyes nearly bulging out of her head, had a grip on his sleeve and was shaking him gently, trying to rouse him.
"Mister Tsukune?" The girl sobbed.
Kurumu, Mizore and Moka knelt down beside her and looked him over. They could see that, while his breathing was shallow and rapid, he was still breathing. They let out a sigh of relief before checking him for injury. Ruby and Yukari had both pulled out nurses headbands and had their wands out before kneeling down on the rabbit's other side, ready to take care of any minor injuries before they moving him. Kokoa, for her part, ran to get some of the school's hospital staff after sparing a cautious glance to make sure he was alive.
"Look." Mizore pointed to the tattered remains of Tsukune's shirt. "His wounds are closing up faster than they ever have before." once they were sure it was okay, the five of them rolled Tsukune onto his back and stared into the deathly calm face of the man they loved.
The white-haired student began crying in earnest now, as much from the thoughts of what had almost happened to her as the fact that her savior might have died. Kurumu, unsure of what else she could do, pulled the girl into a soft embrace, letting her cry into her shoulder. If there was one thing Kurumu knew, it was what those guys would have done to the poor girl. "Shh, hush now. Don't you worry about a thing. It's all over now, and Tsukune," She choked back a sob. "he's going to be alright, okay?"
Ruby ran her wand parallel to Tsukune's body before sighing. "Physically he's fine, so there's nothing we can really do right now." She had to try to remain calm. The Headmaster's assistant had to keep her cool in a crisis. She was finding it exceedingly difficult this time, however, and a single tear rolled down her cheek before she realized that Yukari had grabbed her arm tightly and had begun bawling.
Outer-Moka was at a loss. Yesterday had been good to her. Mizore had helped Tsukune give her something even tastier than his blood, and even though she had seen Kurumu and Tsukune together, he had as good as promised that she would be next. She had been looking forward to it all morning. Now, he had gone and been noble again, putting himself in harm's way for a complete stranger. It made her proud of him, but part of her wished that he wasn't so quick to jump in and help others. "Hey, cut that out!" Inner-Moka barked. 'Huh?' "I said stop it. Where would we be if this fool hadn't jumped in without thinking and tried to save us on our first day? Everyone here is here because Tsukune can not sit by and let someone else do his fighting for him. If he were a Vampire, and with training, he would probably bring great honor to his house." Outer sniffled. 'I don't care about any of that, I just want Tsukune to be alright!' "So do I, Outer, so do I."
-Later-
It was nearly lunch by the time the nurses had situated Tsukune into an empty room. They had also, at the request of the students, brought in an entire row of chairs from the waiting room. The room was crowded with seven young girls and a number of doctors, but eventually, the doctors cleared the room, unable to find anything wrong with the boy.
As the last doctor left, he turned to the girls. "He has a few small scrapes, but as far as we can tell, he is simply exhausted. Give the boy a chance to rest. Now, you should all be going to your afternoon classes soon." And with that, he left.
"Exhausted? My left foot!" Kurumu scoffed. "Stupid doctors."
The six turned toward their fallen love with worried expressions, unable or unwilling to move, until the seventh guest spoke up. "Is something wrong with Mister Tsukune?"
Having forgotten that the rabbit was still in the room, they all turned toward her, eyes slithy wide. Mizore was the one that spoke up. "Kind of. Tsukune has been changing for a while, now, and something that happened during that fight seemed to accelerate that change."
"But why is Mister Tsukune not waking up?"
Moka pulled herself out of her thoughts. "The change isn't an easy one, and has hurt Tsukune a lot. My guess is that a surge like this one has caused his body to shut down while it tries to recover." Everyone could hear the guilt in her voice, though the outsider had no idea as to why. She shook herself and opened her eyes again. "I'm sorry, but in all this chaos, we never got your name."
The white-haired girl played with her sleeves a bit before looking up. "I'm so sorry. My name is Trang Tho, I just transferred here yesterday." She looked over to the bed. "This is my fault." She sobbed, fresh tears rolling down her cheeks. Kurumu practically swept her up, allowing her to sob into her shoulder again.
"Hush, now. It's nobody's fault. Our Tsukune will always be this way. He's saved all of us before, saved me and the Ice-Queen from kinda similar situations. We wouldn't be here if Tsukune weren't this kind of a person." She stroked the girl's hair, completely ignoring her own tears.
Yukari was kneeling by Tsukune, on his right side. She had been crying, of course, all of them had, but Yukari was finally calmed to the point of just a slight case of sniffles. Unsure of what she could do, she laid her cheek against his upturned palm, trying to mimic the comforting touch he would often give when one of them cried. Suddenly, her eyes shot open. She listened intently, not moving an inch.
She turned to the group, concern evident. "Something's going on. The Holy Lock is humming."
Moka and Mizore quickly joined her and put their ears close to his side. She was right.
Ruby walked through the door, which startled everyone as they had not seen her leave, followed closely by the Headmaster, wearing his customary hooded robes, and the two Vampire faculty members, dressed in black slacks, leather shoes and silk shirts with red crosses over their hearts. She quickly joined the rest of the girls near the bed, her expression hopeful that a solution was imminent.
"This happened faster than I expected." Alexander remarked, standing beside the hooded man.
"I told you that Aono was going to surprise you."
"True. This is, however, one surprise I could do without." He glanced at the huddled students. "This surprise is frightening our students."
"So it is." The Headmaster smiled, something that always worried Moka. "I believe you know what to do, Mister Adelheid. I will leave you to it. Come along, Ruby, you have not completed any of today's work."
The witch gave Tsukune a pensive look before following the exorcist out of the room. Alexander walked up to the bed and looked at each girl's face. "Miss Kurono, you shared the most recent connection with Tsukune, yes?"
The Succubus in question blushed slightly and nodded. "Yes, Sir."
"Then you will need to stay. You as well, Miss Akashiya."
"Not that I'm complaining, Sir, but why me?" Moka was happy to be allowed to stay by Tsukune's side, but something wasn't quite right. "Tsukune and I haven't…" She let the sentence trail off, cheeks exploding with crimson.
"You and Tsukune share a different kind of bond, Miss Akashiya. If today advances as I believe it will, Tsukune will be very hungry. You will be responsible for slaking his thirsts." The advisor locked eyes with the white-haired girl. "Miss Tho, I understand you had a very traumatic experience. I want you to know my doors are always open to you if you need to talk about any of it. For now, however, I will advise that Miss Sendo and Miss Shuzen escort you to an examination room to ensure you were not harmed." He scuttled the three out of the door, amidst many protests.
"What about me?" Mizore asked, trying not to sound too worried about possibly leaving Tsukune's side.
"You will be assisting Mina in anything that she needs while Miss Kurono and I are indisposed." He pulled the chain from around his neck and handed it to her, the room suddenly thrumming with power, causing the three to gasp. "You will also be holding onto this."
"Why?"
"If things begin to look like they are going wrong, Mina will tell you to put it around my neck again. Doing so will cut the power projecting myself and Miss Kurono into Tsukune's mind, bringing us back to this room." His face hardened slightly before becoming soothingly calm once again. "If you hesitate for even a moment, we could become lost, and Tsukune may never truly awaken ever again."
Mizore nodded slowly, absorbing the gravity of her task.
"Excellent." He smiled, turning to Mina, who had just finished drawing a number of strange arcane symbols on Tsukune's forehead and cheeks. "Is everything prepared?"
Mina smiled, pulling a small, golden saucer and a dagger out of the bag she was carrying. "Yes, Master. Everything is ready." She handed the bag to Moka. "You'll need these." When Moka looked into the bag, she saw a large number of blood transfusion packs. She looked up questioningly. "Might wanna start drinking now, no telling how much Tsukune's gonna need."
Alexander set the saucer on the table next to the bed. "Your hand, please, Kurumu." He took her wrist gently, and held her palm down over the saucer. "Per hunc sanguinem, aperire mentem scriptorium." His voice echoed throughout the small room, and power seemed to arc off the walls as he made a shallow cut on Kurumu's palm, allowing a small amount of her blood to collect in the small vessel. He released her hand, and Mina handed her a small tin of salve, motioning for her to rub it on the cut. Alexander licked the knife clean, only taking a short moment to savor the essence of the young monster. He then held his own palm over the saucer, and repeating the passage, slid the razor-sharp blade along his flesh, spilling his own blood into the waiting receptacle. After his own wound had closed, he bade Kurumu to sit in the chair that had been pulled up alongside the bed. "Are you ready?" He asked, looking to each of the girls remaining in the room. When each had nodded, he took the saucer and held it above Tsukune's head. Closing his eyes, he spoke again, and the room seemed to shake with him. "Domine, obsecro. In quorum sanguis effusus est, intret in mente turbata huius iuvenis." Alexander brought the saucer to Tsukune's lips and tipped the blood into his mouth.
For Kurumu, the entire world went white, and she felt herself being sucked into something that she could not quite explain. She was pulled for what seemed to be an eternity until she found herself standing in an empty classroom that resembled the newspaper club's meeting area. "How did I get here?"
Alexander stood beside her. "You are still very much in the hospital room, Kurumu. However, the blood magic that I invoked has pulled our minds into Tsukune's." He stated, sounding almost bored.
She looked up to him, eyes wide. "Okay, so why are we here?"
"Something happened during the fight this morning that seems to have accelerated the rate at which this second personality of Tsukune's was manifesting. I had wanted to wait until each of you had strengthened your bonds with him, and would have wished to had him conscious for this. However, the personality is encroaching, and action must be taken."
Kurumu looked at her feet. She had known something was going on with Tsukune, she had seen evidence of the other personality during the morning. "We don't want Tsukune to change." She pleaded, eyes brimming with tears.
"I know, my dear." He started through the open door of the room. "Now, let us find Tsukune and put an end to this silliness."
They walked for what seemed like hours inside the deserted, distorted halls, searching for any sign that Tsukune was nearby. Kurumu was getting anxious, questions bubbling inside her head. Unable to hold back any longer, she asked, "Why me? Why didn't all of us come? Is Tsukune going to be alright?"
Alexander put a hand on her shoulder, calming her. "You were the last to couple with Tsukune, therefore your bond with him right now is strongest out of any outside of Moka. That makes it easier for you to enter his mind without his explicit consent. A spell such as this requires great deals of energy, which is why I was forced to remove my Crucifix, and only able to bring you with me." He paused a moment, taking a deep breath. "Tsukune's future may very well hinge upon what we accomplish here today, Kurumu." Her body tensed underneath his hand, and he quickly added, "So long as you remain true to Tsukune and yourself, there is no question we will succeed, understood?"
Kurumu fought to suppress her blush at the mention of 'coupling' and nodded.
-Tsukune's Hospital Room-
Moka had just finished her fifth blood pack, and was becoming quite full, when Kokoa and Yukari came back into the room. Seeing Mr. Adelheid frozen, leaning over Tsukune's head, which was covered in drying blood and strange symbols, Kurumu limp as a noodle next to the bed, Mizore holding onto the golden necklace, and Ms. Vieras chanting quietly in what Yukari thought to be Latin, had the two younger students at a loss for words. Moka put a finger to her crimson-coated lips and motioned them over to her where she was sitting on the edge of the bed.
"What the hell's going on here?" Kokoa whispered, obviously irritated at being out of the loop.
"Mister Adelheid and Kurumu are in Tsukune's mind right now, trying, I think to reverse whatever happened in the forest this morning." Moka saw Yukari's eyes widen in wonder, and answered the unasked question. "He used a very old and very powerful type of blood magic, Yukari. I don't think he'll be teaching it to you, as it is meant for Vampires only." Moka was doing her best to put on a brave face for the girls, but truth be told, she didn't know much about the effects of the magic's being used. Even Inner-Moka was more or less at a loss, and just as worried about Tsukune's well-being. Moka gathered the two girls in her arms and gave them a tight hug that she was sure that they needed almost as much as she did.
Mina looked up, the chanting stopping immediately. "They found him."
-Tsukune's Mind, School Roof-
The wind was blowing dangerously, and ominous red storm clouds roiled overhead as Tsukune stood face to face with himself. Chocolate eyes glared into crimson, power arcing off of both of them. Alexander and Kurumu dared not move as the scene unfurled before them.
"Why are you doing this to me?" The obviously human Tsukune yelled.
"You wanted power, power to protect those you love." The silver-haired Tsukune scoffed, derision obvious in his voice. "In return, I demand blood, death, destruction. Chaos!" The Ghoul laughed dangerously.
Tsukune blanched, the thought of killing something turning his stomach. Black lightning struck the warped fences surrounding the roof. "They were scum, but death? No one deserves that."
"Everything deserves death, boy." The Ghoul answered. "The only difference is if it is quick and painless, or slow, and agonizing."
"That's not true!"
Kurumu couldn't stand by any longer and walked up behind Tsukune, wrapping her arms around his waist. She noticed that Ghoul-Tsukune took a step back, face twisting in rage. "We love you, Tsukune, remember that." She buried her face between his shoulder blades.
"K-Kurumu? How did you-" Tsukune started before a wave of calm energy entered him. He could think again, could feel Kurumu, and someone else, somehow inside him. He could feel the other girls somewhere nearby. Their love for him, their wishes for him to come back to them as he was, filled him.
He had an idea.
"You want people to kill, yes?" Tsukune spoke with a confidence that frightened him, and would have stopped him cold if he hadn't known for a fact that it was his own voice. He felt Kurumu tense behind him, and he placed a hand over hers, trying to keep her calm.
"You want to make a deal?" Ghoul-Tsukune asked. "I could take control and destroy, kill, drink and fuck as much as I wanted to."
"True. However, the minute you awaken, and I'm not in control, both the Headmaster, and that man over there," He pointed to Alexander. "Will put you out of my misery once and for all, and the only death would be ours."
The manifestation of power took a moment to consider the truth of the statement. "Point taken. What do you have in mind, boy?"
"I have powerful enemies. Monsters of all kinds are trying to eliminate and subjugate humans. That is something my friends and I can not allow. We must stop them, and that will mean bloodshed. You let me maintain control, and I can promise that there will be more blood and death than you will be able to handle." Tsukune gave himself the hardest glare he could muster.
"Sex too, boy. Though I already know you'll deliver on that." The crimson-eyed Tsukune laughed, and the world seemed to calm, the school around them reverting to a normal state, the clouds receding into nothingness. "You have yourself a deal. If you do not deliver, I will tear you apart from within." He began to fade around the edges. "Know one thing; we are no mere Ghoul." With that, he disappeared.
Tsukune sighed, glad the stand-off was finally over. He turned and wrapped his arms around the sobbing Succubus. "I don't understand how you got here, but I'm so glad you are, Kurumu. I love you, and as soon as I wake up, I will tell the others the same."
She looked up at him, tears staining her cheeks. "You know we're inside your mind?"
"Hard not to. Except for the bloody clouds earlier, almost all of my dreams look similar to this." He glanced over to Alexander. "Thank you, Mister Adelheid, for bringing her with you. I don't think I would have been able to manage without her."
"The praise goes to you, Tsukune. You found the strength to stand up to your own demons, Kurumu only gave you the focus you needed." He held his hand out to Kurumu. "Miss Kurono, it is time we left. We shall see you when you awaken, Mister Aono."
The two vanished as soon as Kurumu hand touched his hand, leaving Tsukune alone in his mind. "I hope I wake up soon. Kinda thirsty, all of a sudden, though."
-Tsukune's Hospital Room-
Kurumu stirred as the white light faded from her vision. She rubbed her eyes. It felt like she had been dreaming, but she knew otherwise. When she opened her eyes, she saw that Mizore, Kokoa and Yukari were staring at her, the young witch seemingly bursting with questions about being in Tsukune's head. "What?" she asked, slightly annoyed that they had been watching her so closely.
Alexander straightened himself out and took his Crucifix from an oblivious Mizore before draping back around his neck and into his shirt, and the feeling of power all but vanished from the room. He kissed Mina on the forehead as she wrung out a washcloth to clean off Tsukune's face, and she nearly melted. The aged Vampire looked out the window to see the sky quickly darkening. "Miss Akashiya, it is important that you stay in this room until Tsukune awakens. I am unsure what side-effects may come from the deal he struck. The rest of you, I know how important Tsukune is to you, however, you should return to your rooms for the night." He held up a hand to stifle any protest. "Tomorrow is Sunday, and you will not have school. I am certain Tsukune would like you all to be well-rested when he sees you tomorrow. Go, wash up and sleep."
When the other girls had left, even Ruby, who had stopped by to make sure the trouble had passed, Alexander and Mina packed their ritual items away and made for the door. The older Vampire looked over his shoulder to Moka, who was settling for the night on the side of the bed against the wall. "When he awakens, see to his needs, Miss Akashiya." And they were gone. She blushed heavily, thinking about what kind of needs he might have. She was gorged on blood, so she was sure Tsukune would feed, the thought kind of frightened her. She had never had someone feed from her before, and she didn't know how it would make her feel. The way he said 'needs' though, made her mind drift to last night, when she had interrupted Kurumu and Tsukune. Would he wake up wanting something like that? The thoughts running through her mind excited and frightened her, so she shook her head to clear it and cuddled against his arm, watching the steady rise and fall of his chest.
Slowly, she drifted off to sleep.
-Later-
"-oka. Moka." A soft voice called her out of a very pleasant dream about Tsukune. Tsukune! That's who was calling to her. She could feel his breath tickling along her cheek before she opened her eyes.
"Tsukune?" She asked tentatively. "Is it you?"
"Yeah, it's me. Sorry for worrying you." He whispered. "I love you, Moka." His face moved closer to hers, and she prepared for a kiss. His lips brushed against hers, warming her body quickly, before sliding along her cheek, grazing her ear, and before she knew what was happening, Tsukune had clamped down on her neck.
She suppressed the urge to scream. His teeth weren't as sharp as they should have been, and the pain she felt when he pierced her flesh was intense. She didn't move away, as much as she wanted to, he needed this, and it would be her penance. After all, this whole thing was her fault. Well, Inner's fault, but she was the one who begged her to save him. The pain began to fade as Tsukune started sucking at the wound, and as his tongue began swirling over her flesh, making sure not to miss a drop of her precious essence, Moka began to feel something in the pit of her stomach. She couldn't help herself, she moaned, wrapping her arms around Tsukune as best she could.
Tsukune was slowly becoming more aware of what he was doing. Part of him was disgusted with himself for hurting Moka in such a way and then drinking her blood. Another part knew that it was necessary now that he had a deal to uphold. Yet another part of him wanted it, Moka was in his arms, at his mercy, moaning his name as he ravaged her neck. He held her tight, close to his body, mouth and tongue working with purpose, causing Moka to whimper and shudder against his body. By the time he released her, the wound had closed, and Moka lay there, panting and very flushed.
"I'm sorry, Moka." Tsukune whispered, his voice carrying a wanting tone to it despite himself.
The pink-haired Vampire looked into his worried brown eyes and smiled. "You told me before, Tsukune, that I didn't need to feel guilty about giving you my blood because it saved your life, even though it changed you so much. I'm still working on it, and I know Inner me is, too. But I promise that you don't need to feel guilty about taking it from me, either."
"I'll try." Tsukune smiled, a warm thing that quickly took on a sheepish quality. "Umm, Moka?"
"Yes, Tsukune?"
He took her hand and brought it beneath the thin hospital sheets. "I'm having trouble controlling myself right now. Is it okay if we… I mean, this isn't how I wanted it to happen, but-" He was cut off by Moka planting a purposeful, passionate kiss on his lips.
When she pulled away, Moka smiled at the shocked expression on Tsukune's face. "I had trouble sleeping last night after what you said, and I looked forward to being with you all night and morning. All I really care about is that you're okay, Tsukune. Not where we are."
Moka watched as he worked it over in his mind. After a moment, his gaze focused again. "So, is that a yes?" She laughed silently when he smiled. Taking the opportunity, Tsukune pulled Moka close again, taking possession of her lips as her fingers wrapped around his length. She had only seen it once, but it felt bigger than it had been yesterday.
The flimsy, somewhat rough fabric of the hospital gown stimulated Tsukune more than he could have thought as Moka began to move her hand up and down. He groaned into their kiss before pulling away, breathing heavily. He looked Moka over, realizing for the first time that she was only in her underwear. "You're so beautiful, Moka."
The sakura-haired vampire blushed and smiled. "Tsukune, can I taste it again?"
He smiled sheepishly again, not hiding the lust in his eyes. "You can do whatever you want, Moka."
Moka turned her body so that her feet were at the head of the bed, her body running parallel to Tsukune's, and pulled up the gown. She stared at his hardened member. It had gotten bigger. She ran her tongue up and down a few times before gripping it just like Mizore had and putting the tip in her mouth. The taste and smell were driving her wild, and the fire in her stomach quickly reignited. So absorbed in her task, she didn't notice that Tsukune had worked her panties down around her ankles. That is, until he began biting and licking along her thighs before diving in, causing her to jump in surprise.
They continued pleasing each other in that position, each of them wanting the other to feel more pleasure than what they were receiving. They climaxed nearly simultaneously, both struggling to not lose a drop, both failing and making a mess.
After a few moments to recover, Tsukune and Moka began to clean each other up, nearly working each other into another frenzy before Tsukune pulled her away. "Are you ready?" She could only nod. "Okay, lay down on your side, facing away from me, I want to feel your body against mine tonight."
Moka unhooked her bra and placed it on the bedside chair before positioning herself the way Tsukune had suggested. She was about to ask what he was doing when she felt his body press against her back, butt and legs, his manhood sliding between her thighs. She looked down and could see the head very clearly sticking out as it rubbed against her. Tsukune wrapped one arm around her body, kneading her breasts softly, the other moving down along her side before guiding himself inside her slowly. Moka felt every movement he made as he pushed himself deeper into her. He stopped moving suddenly and seemed to be waiting for something. Moka tried looking over her shoulder, and was met with Tsukune's lips diving passionately for hers. The pleasure from the kiss and his earlier ministrations disappeared in a white-hot flash of pain as he pushed himself all the way inside her. Tears welled up in her eyes, and Tsukune held perfectly still, his arms wrapped protectively around her frame.
When he was sure she wouldn't cry out, Tsukune broke the kiss, whispering uncountable apologies at having caused her pain. They lay like that for a few moments until the pain began to fade and she was very aware of how full she was. She began to move slightly, her soft backside rubbing against Tsukune's hips. "Does that mean I can move?" He asked, his voice rough with pleasure. When all she could do was moan her approval, Tsukune began to thrust slowly, placing kiss upon kiss along her neck, shoulders and back, both his hands occupied with exploring her chest, pinching and rolling her hardened nipples.
"Tsukune…" She moaned, nearly out of breath. "It feels so good."
"It's the same for me, Moka." He sighed into her neck, increasing his pace and causing her to buck her hips slightly. "I've loved you for a long time, Moka."
Moka couldn't respond, so she just moaned, pushing back in time with his thrusts. She wanted more of this, this feeling that was beyond anything she has ever had words for. All because of Tsukune, her first friend.
The sounds of their love-making began to echo off of the walls as their grinding and thrusting reached a fever pitch. Moka had grabbed the pillow and buried her face in it, unable to contain her screams, and Tsukune was groaning, almost growling into the soft flesh of her neck. "Moka, I'm almost there…"
Moka continued screaming, her body wracked with pleasure as Tsukune pulled out of her and pumped twice between her thighs, ejaculating with enough force to coat the wall with his essence. Tsukune didn't move, just lay there, holding her possessively as they caught their breath. After they had calmed, Moka snuggled back against him, feeling warm and safe in his arms. "That was amazing, Tsukune. I love you."
"I love you too, Moka."
"Can we stay like this all night? I feel like I could take on all of Fairy Tale as long as you hold me like this."
"Sure we can." Tsukune reached for the sheet and covered them both, placing a soft kiss on Moka's cheek before settling back down. "Good night, Moka."
"Good night, Tsukune." She sighed. She had never felt so relaxed in her life. She was so glad she had been asked to stay.
(Translation Notes: Trang Tho = White Rabbit in Vietnamese. Not an original name, I know, but I needed something. I also used a little Latin this time around. Per hunc sanguinem, aperire mentem scriptorium roughly translates to With this blood, open a portal to the mind. And Domine, obsecro. In quorum sanguis effusus est, intret in mente turbata huius iuvenis more or less means Lord, I beseech thee. Let those whose blood is spilled here, enter the troubled mind of this young man. As I don't know much Latin beyond what I learned from Monty Python, (Romani ite Domum) I used google translate. I did have a friend of mine who had taken a few Latin courses to check them over, but there may be discrepancies. Anyone who is fluent in Latin is free to give me the proper translations, and I will affect the change. )
(A/N: The Moka scene was short, and I apologize. I debated for nearly an hour over whether I would include it at the end of this chapter. I'm actually still a little unsure about it, but too late for second guessing now, huh? I just hope I didn't invoke any nerd-rage with this chapter. )
(P/N: Umm… not much going on here, just writing to avoid depression. )
(Shameless Plug: If you are so inclined, and enjoy Legend of Zelda, I would love for you to stop by my other stories. They Stand Upon the Precipice of Twilight is based in the Twilight Princess world, and started as a writing exercise to flesh out Alexander and Mina for my books, but has taken on it's own life, while remaining faithful to canon. Link to the Future is a Legend of Zelda/Metroid Crossover, set many years into Hyrule's future, yet remaining very faithful to the established Tri-Force Mythos. )
As always, please R&R, I love good feedback. Until next time, Kitties.
