CHAPTER 3

All too soon it was time to wake up again. Kuronue happened to be the first person out of the three who decided to wake, the others too tired to be awoken by the quiet tapping on the door frame.

Kuronue had awoken to Mrs. Evans' gentle knock on the door frame easily enough. She did this every morning, it was growing into a habit, and he wouldn't wake up early unless it was to that. He had asked, several months previous, that she knock quietly so that Kuronue would decide on whether is was wise to wake up his Kitsune mate.

This particular time, more so than the others, Kuronue chose to let his lover and, seeing as the kits had been born earlier that morning, the kits sleep in. His lover and kits he needed much more sleep then Kuronue did.

Kuronue held his hands up in the universal 'shushing' motion to the human woman and crept out of the room, an affectionate smile coming to his face as Youko curled up more to the kits unconsciously to provide heat.

Kuronue got up from the bed and he lead the way to the dining room with Mrs. Evans following him, he thought it was best to tell the Evans that the kits had made their early appearance that morning. Mrs. Evans was practically bouncing in excitement after seeing the adorable kits in the room, though she hadn't yet said anything.

Once the family had congregated and Kuronue had explained, they were all very pleased to hear of the kits birthing.

The simple fact of this was because it would mean that they would soon be granted permission to see the twin girls, though they were also quite worried over the fact that it had been a hard birth.

The Evans family had known, after a few explanations on how spirit foxes in general had trouble and the family in general had grown a little attached to the thief, they wanted to know he was okay.

"Lover, are you sure that this is a good idea?" asked a worried Youko, his face plainly showing his anxiety.

"Would you like to explain when the girls are older?" Kuronue argued, trying to prove his point.

"No…" was the quiet answer.

The argument ended quickly, both Kuronue and Youko stood over their little girls.

Starting to chant in an ancient demonic language, the gruff and hair raising words worked their magic, removing all signs of demonic ancestry from the two tiny infants. Unfortunately for the comfortability, or rather, the uncomfortability of all involved the process to there around an hour.

The little girl that had taken after their 'mother', Youko, now had blond hair and the greenest eyes imaginable. Her eyes no longer had golden flecks in them and she did not have fox ears or a tail.

Her sister who had been a bat demon and had black hair and blue eyes with silver flecks had changed too. She now had no bat ears or wings. Her eyes were now blue and the silver flecks were gone. However she still had black hair.

"It's done…" Kuronue's tone was that tinged with exhaustion.

"Lover, are you sure that this is a good thing to do?" anxiety was plain in Youko's face, this seemed like a cruel thing to do.

"It will help the girls and you know it," Kuronue said with an air of finality around him.

"True, lover…"

"Ok, it is time," said Kuronue softly, his eyes never leaving his lover's dejected form. He'd make him feel better… soon.

After a short spell of silence they picked up the twins and headed to speak to the Evans and present to two to them.

They were sure the girls would be happy, completely certain they thought as they watched the awed looks of motherly love being showered on them by Mrs. Evans.

Happiness for everyone was what this was all about in the end.
