Chapter 1: The Lives We Live¡¦


Sacramento, California - 20 years later...


¡°Pretty girl is suffering, while he confesses everything

Pretty soon she'll figure out what his intentions were about

That's what you get for falling again

You can never get 'em out of your head


It's the way

That he makes you feel

It's the way

That he kisses you

It's the way

That he makes you fall in love¡¦¡±

The lyrics sprung from wet lips. The water cascading down the body, gave an impression of illuminating skin. Yue¡¯s eyelids closed; in an attempt avoid the conditioner, which tried to slip through the thick lashes. Pounding from outside caused bright silver eyes to shoot open in shock.

¡°Honey, are you ready yet?! You don¡¯t want to be late for you plane, do you?!¡± The warm, caressing voice slipped into the twenty-seven year-old ears.

¡°Give me a minute! I¡¯m almost done!¡± Yue shouted back to her mother. Sighing she finished washing out all the conditioner from her knee length black, red-streaked hair.

With the ending of the song , an ivory colored leg appeared from behind the curtain, soon followed by an arm searching for a towel. Grasping the soft material, it was quickly wrapped around the lean figure. A strong scent of disinfecting alcohol and morphine entered her nose as she opened the door, to her bedroom. Sweeping a hand over her bangs, trying to remove them from her view, she scanned her room, seeing if her mother was still in the room. Noticing no one, she dropped the towel.

Walking to her bed, which sat at the opposite side of her room, she grabbed the new set of bandages that her mother placed on her bed, only moments ago. Throwing her hair over her shoulder, she placed the tip of the bandages on the side of her chest, and began the process of wrapping her breast. Years of experience had the wrapping down in mere moments, checking to make sure she could still breathe; Yue tugged her black underwear over her legs.

Sniffing the air, the previous scent had already dispersed, only to be replaced by the odor of pines and cranberries. Narrowing her eyes, knowing full well who the scent belonged to; she made a move to finish getting dressed before she was disturbed.

As fast as she could, Yue pulled on her clothes. Loose black cargo pants clung onto her hips, with an oversized dark blue t-shirt with ¡®Gravitation¡¯ sprawled all over it, in different fonts and sizes. The oddly colored hair was pulled back into a high ponytail that touched the middle of her thigh. Her drying bangs, where placed to one side, covering one of the two markings that graced her face.

Two lighting marks, their edges rounded with a curved tip and a small dot above the tip, in a soft yellow color encircled her eyes. The marks began near the eyebrows till they stopped mid-cheek. Similar marks, with rougher edges where placed all over her body; from her shoulders, to her back, leading to the dip on her hips, flowing down her legs before stopping.

Looking into the full-length mirror that hung on one of the side door, the person who looked back could easily pass for a boy. Sighing, she looked down to her night table, a smaller version of herself smiling widely, wearing a white hakama¡¯s and haori., stood next to a man. His hair was as dark as night, his eyes closed with his smile. Instead of white hakama¡¯s his were black, revealing his superiority. One of his hands was placed on her head and the other placed on a pouting boy, whose arms were crossed over his haori.

¡®Daddy¡¯

¡°Yue! If we¡¯re late, the blame goes on you!¡± Her brother¡¯s yell from the other side of her door, brought Yue out from her daze. Checking to make her pointed ears, one of the few traits that named her as a youkai, were covered by her hair, she grabbed the handle of her duffle bag and slung it over her shoulder. Snapping her fingers a dark cat came out of its hiding place, underneath Yue¡¯s bed. Its tail, paws and ears all seemed to have been dipped in white paint.

¡°Ready Shu Fang?¡± The cat¡¯s emerald eyes, connected with Yue¡¯s silver. Lifting one of her white sprayed paws, she rubbed her ear and meowed softly.

¡°Naturally, a cat is always prepared. But do we really have to ride in the wind contraption. I don¡¯t find it very safe and I don¡¯t agree with the cat cage either. Cats should be treated with respect, not like animals.¡± Looking down at Shu Fang, Yue rolled her eyes and stretched her arm out, allowing Shu Fang to leap from the ground to the arms of her mistress.

¡°This is considered cat abusement.¡±

¡°Yeah and this is you staying here, without food and without me.¡±

¡°Very well, I do need the food. But you have to let me have some kind of fun once we arrive. Not reading books till dawn nor should you study so much. Cats must always be relaxed.¡± Ignoring Shu Fang, Yue gave a final look at her room before closing her door.

Walking past her brother¡¯s room, Yue made her way down the staircase and walked out the door that lead to the front yard. Only to find her brother staring at her, anger showing in his chocolate eyes.

¡°God damn it, Jakotsu! Do you not know what patience is?¡± She yelled at him, his foot tapping in a regular sequence on the pavement. Walking past him, she handed her duffel to the taxi driver, who was waiting there with a scared look on his face. Opening the back door of the car, Shu Fang saw her kennel sitting innocently in the middle of the seat.

¡°You can¡¯t put me in there! Don¡¯t you dare put such a beauty as me in there!¡± Shu Fang meowed nosily, her claws extending to grab on to Yue¡¯s clothing. The noises that seemed as screams had the already scared taxi driver look at Yue with a frightened face.

¡°Doesn¡¯t like traveling much does it?¡± Giving taxi driver a quick smile, to soothe his fear, Yue detached the claws that clung to her skin. Holding Shu Fang far away from anything that she could cling on to, Yue was able to successfully get Shu Fang in her kennel. Satisfied with her accomplishments, much to Shu Fang¡¯s cursing and disappointment, she ignored the cries of the cat that involved her being of royal youkai blood and royalty such as her should never be kept in a cage. Instead she turned to the cries of her brother who, if anything was related more to Shu Fang than herself.

¡°What were you yelling about Jaki?¡± Turning around, she took in her brother appearance, her mouth dropping in a gasp, her eyes popping out of her sockets.

¡°What the hell are you wearing?!¡± Yue eyes traveled up form Jakotsu¡¯s black knee high boots, to the jean miniskirt that concealed gorgeous creamy skin, to the tight black spaghetti top, and the fake breast he had added for appearance. Jakotsu¡¯s long pure-black hair was placed in its usual fashion, a sloppy bun, with the blue butterfly pin keeping it in place. Bright-red lipstick added the final touch to outfit, the only thing throwing the whole creation off was the two long blue triangles descending from his dark brown eyes. Even with that, her brother could easily pass as a better girl than Yue ever could. Yue watched as Jakotsu give a professional spin showing off his outfit.

¡°Doncha¡¯ like? It¡¯s my newest creation!¡±

¡°Weren¡¯t you beat up last time you cross dressed?!¡±

¡°No! I beat them up for insulting me!¡± Jakotsu giggled, his hand touching to his cheek, looking more than ever like a girl.

¡°So¡¦.getting the call from the police wasn¡¯t a dream?¡± Yue mused as he glared at her, opening his mouth to retaliate, but was stopped by another voice.

¡°Stop bickering you two.¡± The honey sweet voice that belonged to their mother sang out from behind the two siblings. The aging human looked frail, but beautiful. The plain white yukata seemed to be draining her life. The older women¡¯s cheeks were pale and the once-bright coffee eyes now where dull. The smiled was forced; everything about the women rang fake.

¡°Mother, you should be back in bed! The nurse said you shouldn¡¯t be out in the cold, you¡¯ll get even worse!¡± Jakotsu cried at the sight of his mother, rushing to her side.

¡°Oh hush! She¡¯s just tired of dealing with me. She knows how I love the outdoors. She will be the death of me, not this stupid disease.¡± The laughing she forced out turned into a terrible cough.

¡°Mom!¡± At the sound of coughing, Yue was at her mother¡¯s side, wrapping her arm around the frail¡¯s women¡¯s waist, trying to keep her up.

¡°Please just go inside, and rest. I want you to get better, please just listen to the nurse while we are gone, alright? Alright!?¡± Jakotsu pleaded, his eyes holding sorrow.

¡°Yes, yes. When did I raise such worry warts? Now go, or you¡¯ll miss your plane and don¡¯t forget to tell my sister and the family I say hello.¡± Shooing her children from her side, she watched as they walked to the taxi, the driver already inside. Both looked back at her, but with a small wave, they entered the taxi.

Yue gave quick directions and the taxi driver nodded. Smiling, the woman watched the car pull away form the house, turning to corner and disappearing from her sight. Knowing that they were gone, she let go of the control that she had gathered, showing the pain she had felt since she had stepped out outside. Doubling over, her coughing sprouted again, till blood slipped from her lips, her body wrenched in so much agony that her eyes had trouble staying open.

At the smell of blood, a female wolf youkai came running from the house, her teeth barring, showing the elongated canines. Turning her head, she sniffed the air trying to find any scent that could be considered an enemy. The only scent the nurse could pick up were the scents of pines and cranberries and one of a storm, the scents of the two siblings that had just departed.

Walking up to the now unconscious human, Naru sighed. Shaking her head, Naru picked the mother of the two siblings up slowly, wiping away the blood that was spilling over from her mistress lips. The wolf youkai nurse smiled sadly at the human and walked to the entrance of the home. A shaking hand clutched the top of her nurse uniform.

¡°Naru, please don¡¯t tell them it¡¯s getting worse. My only wish is for them to be happy.¡± A smile full of sadness met the Naru¡¯s eyes.

¡°My lady you of all people should know, that just be being with you they are happy.¡± Coming to the door, the wolf nurse turned, forcing one of her two tails to grab the handle of the door, pulling it open enough to get her back through. Repositioning herself, the wolf youkai pushed the door open, making more room to carry the frail human inside.

¡°But there are other kinds of happiness, some which they haven¡¯t experienced yet.¡± Another coughing fit attacked the woman. Naru walked into the house, passing the stairs that lead to the sibling¡¯s room and made her way to the room that was the woman¡¯s. As weak as her voice was, the woman kept talking.

¡°Knowing Yue she¡¯ll probably spend the time studying and Jakotsu will be acting like a girl, and doing nothing. Naru, do a favor for me please.¡± Seeing no other way, Naru nodded as she opened the bedroom door.

¡°Please cancel everything that they had planned that might burrow them further in solitude. I want them to experience life. Even if it is sometimes painful, I want them to experience love.¡± With the last two words, the women succumb to the darkness that had been calling her.

¡°Goodnight my lady, I know that your wants and wishes will come true.¡± Placing the sleeping women on the bed, Naru turned to leave to dark room, as no curtains had been drawn to allow the light to shine through. Sniffing the air, once more a different smell swept past her nose.

The faint smell of death.

¡°Yet, as much as I would pray it won¡¯t happen, I just don¡¯t believe you will live long enough to see them in love.¡± Closing the door, Naru leaned her back on the door, tears sliding down her cheeks. After a few moments Naru brushed them back from her cheeks and straightened her back.

One is never to get close to the soon to be dead, it was a rule. Taking a deep breathe, Naru organized her thoughts, preparing herself for another day of keeping the house in order and her mistress alive. ¡®I must keep her alive as long as is it is possible.¡¯

For not only had her mistress become a part of Naru¡¯s heart but the death of her would destroy Yue and Jakotsu. Two people who, whether they knew it or not would son be caught in a web full of lies, betrayal and love.
