"Slash?" Nini asked in shock. The boy nodded then looked at her.
"私はSukari、長い間あなたを探してきた,"he said in Japanese. When Sukari and Nini saw everyone's confused glances, Nini looked at Slash.
"Speak English, please," she said. Slash nodded and repeated what he had said.
"I've been looking for you for a long time, Sukari," he said. Sukari crooked her eyebrow and walked over to him cautiously. She never took her eyes off of him as she stopped a few feet in front of him. He looked down at her stomach. "You're pregnant?" Sukari furrowed her eyebrows.
"Who are you?" she asked.
"You really don't remember?" he asked. "Sukari, I'm your… fiancée." Sukari stepped back with shock and glared.
"I don't know you," she said.
"We were betrothed the day you were born," Slash explained. He touched her shoulder and Sukari pulled away. "We used to play at the beach. Remember when you found the pink conch? It was on that day, that awful day." Sukari's eyes widened as she remembered.
(Flashback)
"Slash, lookie!" Sukari held up a large pink shell to a young boy. He laughed and took it.
"That's pretty, Su," he said. He gave it back to her and she hugged it to her chest. He smiled and touched her shoulder and she giggled at him. "You should give that to Wisteria. She would love it." Sukari smiled and nodded.
"Let's keep looking," she said as she ran off to search for more shells. Slash followed, laughing. Sukari suddenly fell in the sand and her knee hit something. She cried out and sat on her knees, sniffling and wiping a couple tears away. Slash sat next to her and hugged her.
"Are you okay, Suki?" he asked. She nodded and sniffled again. Slash pulled her face to his and smiled. She pouted a little. He stuck his tongue out at her and crossed his eyes and she laughed. He chuckled and helped her up and she looked down at what her knee had hit and picked up a gold locket with a red dragon symbol on it. She smiled at it and handed it to Slash.
"I got somefin' pretty. Now you got somefin' pretty," she said with a cute smile. Slash weaved the chain through his fingers and hugged Sukari.
"I'll keep it forever," he said. He grabbed Sukari's hand and ran with her across the beach.
(End of Flashback)
Sukari put her hand over her mouth and closed the locket in her hand. When she looked up at Slash, she had tears in her eyes and he was inches in front of her. He put a hand on her cheek and wiped away he tears.
"Sukari!" Sukari turned her head and was engulfed suddenly in a hug from Raphael. She wrapped her arms around him and he pulled away enough to kiss her lips.
Raph suddenly felt something sharp against his throat and he was pulled away from her. Sukari gasped when she saw that Slash had a sword held to Raph's neck
"How dare you place your lips upon an engaged woman," Slash snarled. Raph, quick as lightning, flipped Slash's arm around and held him in a head lock with the sword to his neck instead.
"I don't know who da fuck you are," Raph said, "but gettin' between me and ma girlfriend is possibly da stupidest thing ta do right now." He let go of Slash and gave him his sword back. He turned back to Sukari and hugged her again. "Please tell me he didn't hurt ya."
"Raphael," Sukari said, "I'm alright. I just got hit a couple of times." She smiled at her mate and kissed him passionately. Slash seethed at the sight.
"What is going on, Sukari?" he asked in a low tone. Sukari stopped kissing Raph and looked over at Slash. She knew he was talking about the fact that she was kissing another man. Raph looked over at Slash and glared.
"Slash," Sukari said, surprising Raphael, "this is Raphael, my… mate." Slash gnashed his teeth and gripped his sword tightly.
"Your mate?" he asked with gritted teeth. "You mated with a human?!" Sukari flinched at the sudden force of his voice.
"H-he's not exactly human, Slash," she said quietly, avoiding his eye contact.
"Okay," Raph said suddenly, "who da fuck are ya?"
"My name is Edward Chaste, currently Slash," Slash said, matching Raph's glare. "I am the heir to the throne of Sestina de Lamere. I am also Sukari's fiancée."
"Well ya too late," Raph said. Sukari looked up at him, shocked at his over protective nature. She looked over at Slash and saw the fury in his eyes.
"You do not understand, human," Slash hissed. He raised the sword a little, making Sukari tense. "I had her first."
"Yeah, well she chose me," Raph said in anger. He was really getting annoyed with this guy. Slash stepped forward with his sword and glared viciously at Raph. Raph put Sukari behind him and balled his fists. "You really wanna fight me?"
"Nothing would make me happier," Slash replied through gritted teeth. He ran forward, sword pointed at Raphael. Sukari jumped in between them, staring at Slash with a glare. He stopped with a shocked expression on his face.
"Can you guys please argue later and get us all home?" she asked in annoyance. "I'm tired, Nini's really tired, and I'm sure the girls are all feeling the same way. Let's go." Raph and Slash looked down at her and, after a pause, agreed. They knew better than to argue with a five-month-pregnant dragon.
…
"Mikey!" Carolie shouted as she jumped into Michelangelo's arms. He lifted her and spun her around, planting a kiss right on her lips. When Raj walked in through the door, Leo smothered her into his arms and she wrapped hers around his neck. Leo kissed the top of her head a few times before finally getting to her lips.
"Donny!" Mona cried as she tackled Donatello to the ground. He laughed and hugged her middle tightly.
Leo looked over at Sukari and saw the stranger behind her. He crooked an eyebrow and let go of Raj.
"Who are you?" he asked. Slash looked at him, matching his look.
"My name is Slash," he said. Raph put an arm around Sukari's shoulder and led her to the bedroom to tend to her. Slash watched them and his anger grew. Leo put his hand out to shake with Slash.
"My name is Leonardo," he said. "Am I to assume that you're a friend of Sukari and Nini?"
"Yes," Slash said plainly. Leo nodded.
"We have one more open bedroom if you'd like to stay," he offered. Slash nodded once and Nini led him to the room so she could talk to him. Couple by couple, they all went away to their rooms; Mona and Donny to the lab to 'study', Mikey and Carolie to Mikey's room, and Leo and Raj to the living room to watch a movie and cuddle.
…
"Baby," Raph said as he touched Sukari's jaw, "are ya sure ya alright? Ya face is swollen."
"Raphael," Sukari said, shaking out of his grip, "I'm alright. I told you, I just got smacked a few times."
"How many times is a few?" Raph asked with a crooked eyebrow. Sukari looked up at him and shrugged.
"Twenty at the most," she said quietly. Raph's fist balled and he stood straight in anger.
"Now can I go and kill him?" he asked calmly.
"Raphael, you know the risks," Sukari said, standing carefully. Raph steadied her. "Josh has gotten stronger. He has more people on the hunt for all of us. I don't want him finding you or anyone because I know he'd kill you. There will come a time when Josh gets what he deserves, but now is the wrong time, okay? Soon, baby." Raph looked at her and gave a small smile. He wrapped his arms gently around her and kissed her passionately. As he kissed her, he rubbed her stomach. He felt the small kick and smiled. He didn't know this child yet, but he already loved it.
…
"I've missed you, Leonardo," Raj said in between kisses. After the movie, she and Leo had moved to his room and were now lying on his bed together. Leo straddled her and kissed her neck gently. Raj ran her fingers along the patterns of his shell and moaned. Leo was moving against her softly.
"Do you want to, Raj?" he asked in a sexy growl in her ear. She giggled and smiled at him.
"Yes, Leonardo," she said in her accent that Leo found so beautiful. Leo smiled and spread her legs apart and undid her shorts, dragging them off. Raj moaned at his touch and took off her shirt. Leo stared at a red bra with a black lace outline. He saw that the clip was in the front and he touched it lightly. "Take it off, Leonardo," Raj whispered. Leo unclipped it and what escaped almost made him drool. Raj's breasts were perfectly full and firm. He touched one of them and kissed her again. Raj's breathing became more irregular. Leo placed himself between her legs and prepared. Raj sighed in pleasure-pain as Leo slipped inside her. He continued to move and Raj gasped and held his shoulders tightly. She matched his motions and he went a little harder.
This continued until they both finished. Their love had been made final at last. Leo held Raj in his strong arms and Raj smiled and felt her eyelids grow heavy. Leo kissed the top of her head and the two fell asleep tangled together.
…
Josh received another blow to the head from his uncle and fell, his lips bleeding. He groaned in pain and put his hand up, pleading for mercy. Hun glared down at him and lifted him by his shirt. There were red streaks in Josh's blonde hair from the gashes on his head. Hun smashed him against the wall and Josh cried out.
"P-please," Josh said, putting a hand on Hun's arm, "s-stop, Uncle H-Hun."
"Have you any idea the severity of this?!" Hun shouted at him. Josh flinched at Hun's booming voice and looked away. "What exactly is making you continuously fail at keeping your eye on a teenage girl?!"
"I-I know," Josh said. Hun dropped him onto his side and stepped back a few steps. "Her family k-keeps finding her. I-I'm trying, Uncle." Hun rolled his eyes and looked down at his nephew.
"Try harder," he said. "If you don't, Bishop will have both of our heads." Josh nodded and spit out some more blood and pushed himself up off the floor. Hun left Josh in his room. Josh lay down on his bed, looking up at the ceiling. This was all Sukari's fault. If she had just done what was expected of her, this wouldn't be happening. Josh promised himself that he would make her and her family pay for everything. Even if it meant killing a child.
Josh has a few issues, as you may have noticed. Things are gonna get interesting.
