Back from work...

-With the contruction of the chaos complete Kurai returns the nightmare a bit weary from the amount of nocturnal servants she made to help. She sighs and smiles.-

Finally, its done

"zeik shadow warps into the area"..kurai i see you have returned..how did it go,any problems

-Kurai chuckles lightly and looks at Zeik withna sarcastic but loving expression-

Of course not! Who do you think I am?

-Kurai reaches out for zeik hurriedly though she doesnt get up-

Wait! Before you go I...

"zeik turns to kurai"..yes what is it??

I just wanted to say that...

-Kurai looks away from Zeik timidly and continues to speak-

that I wont let you down, as Kage. I'll do whatever it takes, but...I refuse to fail you or...anyone.

-Kurai forces herself to look him eye to eye-

I know I'm only Jounin now but I'll prove that I can do this, and do it right

The snow, so peaceful and serene,
caressed by the soft moonlight,
gave magical feelings to the night.

The soft blue glow,
the lovers' words that then did flow,
their lips closer and closer
until, locked in the throes
of a passionate embrace,
he decided to express his feelings,
to keep her safe.

He whispered softly,
his words like music to her ears,
"I Love You,"
and her response the same,
heard like the gentle breeze,
"And I, love you, forever."

That was the night they promised
to be together through everything,
each to care for the other when old and gray.
A lovers' pact
the most likely to last

-Kurai watches her love as he dissapears. After reading the poem she is moved to tears wish she wishes she could shed, only to give the feeling justice. She lays back for a while going over the words constantly in her head. smiling here and there. When her strength has returned just enough she opens up a dark slit and walks through it to head back to castle hellgate-
