Foxtrot sat in his room, humming and was happy this day has come forth. He decided it was a time for relaxation. "Oh, this is my favorite day of my life!" He said happily. He opened the door and then saw his step-father standing there. He had a smirk upon his face. "Hey, Zuki! What's up?"
Zuki shook his head. "Nothing." He chuckled. "Wait until you find out what is in store for you. My family never gave me this stuff when I was your age." He then desended down the stairs.
Foxtrot was curious and he followed him. "What do you mean? What did I get that you couldn't?" He finally caught up to him and followed by his side.
"You will find out, soon enough," Zuki simply stated. "I'm expecting you to eat this cake my mom's specialty. She said it's going to be big. And to add this, she is a popular baker, considering she can make designs, like a dome, or even a triangle pan. But she said she's going to make a special one just for you."
Foxtrot grinned. "I can't wait! Can I-"
"No, you can't go into the kitchen. You are forbidden."
"Aww, please?"
"No."
"Fine..." He sighed and looked around. "Hey, where is everyone? Usually there are guards patrolling the halls."
"I sent them on break duty. They shall be back within a minute."
"You? Put them on break? Ha! That's something new."
Zuki smirked. "I'm feeling good right now. That's all."

"Feeling good? Wow, Zuki, even I hadn't known you to be so kind, at least, to the guards."
Karita said, chuckling. She had came from a different end of the hallway to help Ary with the cake, and had yet to learn Foxtrot had been adopted by Zuki. She looked at Foxtrot a moment, then started to the kitchen again.

Foxtrot smiled. "Hi Karita!" He waved to her and ran over to her and gave her a hug.
Zuki smiled and walked over and stopped next to them. "You might be suprised. But a while back, you must be wondering why he lives within our walls inside the castle, haven't you?"

Karita stared at Foxtrot, wondering why he was hugging her. She then looked at Zuki, arching an eyebrow.
"And eat a ton of our food..."
She said, her eyebrow moving higher on her head.

Zuki chuckled. "Well, I haven't told you. I should of told you sooner, but I have adopted him as my son."
Foxtrot smiled and held her tighter. He laughed. "Can I go into the kitchen with you? I'm just going to help with making my cake."

"No, Foxtrot, and, WHAT? I thought he was just one of your friends! YOU COULD HAVE TOLD ME!!"
Karita's voice had a slight chnage in it, and she felt like shifting into her lioness form and attacking her husband. She wondered how long Foxtrot even LIVED with them without Zuki telling her.

Foxtrot gasped and backed away. "Woah... Umm... I'm going to my room." He then took off towards his room, a little scared of his step-mother.
Zuki was a little nervous. "Well, first, I saved him from drowning. We then became friends for a few months. Ever since then, he wouldn't leave my side. I then taught him how to fight. When he surpassed me from fighting, I decided to adopt him, which was a month ago." Zuki felt bad. "I'm sorry hon. I should of told you sooner."

Karita snorted, then turned her back to him. Apparently, she was more angry about the fact Zuki kept something from her then Foxtrot living with them.
"Fine. And just so you know, I'll be living in a guest bedroom from now on, until I can convince either X or Malco to let me live with them."
She snorted, then stormed off to Zuki's room, and a minute later she was carrying all her clothes. She stormed down the hall into the farthest unoccupied guest bedroom from Zuki's room, then slammed the door, shaking the walls. She locked it, and dropped her stuff on the floor away fro mthe door. She then stacked everything in the room against the outsidse doors, so Zuki couldn't get in.

Zuki widened his eyes. "Karita! No!" He ran over towards the door and knocked on it. "Karita, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to keep it a secret. I thought you would of known if he lived with us. Please don't leave me! I beg of you!" Tears began to form on his face. "Karita... I didn't mean to... It's an accident."

Karita ignored Zuki, tears falling down her cheek as she stared at a wall.
I can't believe it, Zuki didn't tell the truth to me, his own wife.
She whimpered. She then burst into tears, crying into her hands to muffle the sound.

Zuki banged at the door. "Please! I beg of you! Don't leave me! I don't know what I would do if you leave me. I won't be the same without you! Karita, why are you pissed at me for something so small?" Tears ran down his face. "Please, give me another chance. Just one more!"

"No!"
Karita yelled, more tears streaming down her cheeks.
"What kind of person whould lie to their own wife, even if it was for a month..."
She more of muttered the last part, putting her hands over her ears to block out all sounds.

Zuki cried so hard. He wanted to somehow figure out a way to get in. He then thought of his teleport. He teleported inside the room and looked at Karita. His face was wet with tears as he stared at her. "Karita, I'm so sorry. Can't we change anything, so we could live happily with each other?" He was in the room with her and he stepped foward towards her.

Karita looked up, then jumped back, her eyes filled with anger.
"No, there isn't. You lied to me for a month. For a month I let Foxtrot eat, sleep, and everything else here, just thinking he was visiting. But you never told me what he was doing...Zuki....I'm sorry."
Karita bowed her head, then transformed into a Lioness. She looked at Zuki one more time, then burst through the window, feeling her body fall in the air. She had her paws prepared for impact, and she landed, immediately starting to run into the forest. Right now, she just wnated to be alone and think.

Zuki widened his eyes. He thought she was going to attack him. But then when she jumped out the window, he ran over and looked at her leap. Zuki was shocked that she could survive the fall, but felt miserable when she left. It overwhelmed him and he collapsed to his knees. "K...Karita..." He felt his heart become seperated and he placed his hand on his heart. "I thought you would never leave me..." He closed his eyes and began crying. It was a terrible day. He never knew Karita would leave him like that. He cried his heart out, calling for Karita to come back.

Karita didn't hear him, for she was already on the other side of the forest, her heart pounding. She was back into her normal form, and tears streamed down her cheeks from her eyes.
Why do I have to hold a strong grudge? Why couldn't I have just forgiven Zuki and moved on?
She asked, but she figured fate had it's own way of dealing everything out. She just hoped it was for the better.

Zuki stopped crying. His eyes were red and he stood up. He heard Foxtrot knocking on the door. "Zuki? Is everything alright?"
Zuki snapped, "Leave! I don't give a damn about you now! Go away!"
Foxtrot gasped and backed away from the door. "O-okay." He then ran away outside. He started to cry. Why did Zuki say that to me?
Zuki pushed aside all the stuff from the doorway, then unlocked the door. He then stormed towards his room and sat down on his desk. He then wrote on a peice of parchment. It was signed for Malco.
Malco.
I haven't written to you, or said anything to you since we last met. But I want you to give this letter immediately to Karita if you ever see her again. I know you are busy, but I just want to write this. I don't give a crap if you read more of this.
Karita, I noticed you are angry at me. But the day of Foxtrot's birthday may be my last. The night of midnight is when I will be dead, killed by my own sword. It will be drawn within my heart. I want you to tell Kyrean that I love her and tell her not to be like me. Tell her I love her dearly. If you care for me, you will stop me from my death.
Zuki sighed and wrapped it up. He then teleported the note towards Malco's home.

After a few hours, it had become dark. She wasn't crying anymore, just staring at the ground, her eyes red. She saw something out of the corner of her eyes flash, and she looked up, Malco there.
"Malco? What are you doing here?"
"Karita, Zuki, he's...here's the note..."
Karita snatched the note from Malco's hand, and read it. She held in her tears, and started running back to the castle, leaving Malco alone.
I knew Zuki could be stupid, but I never wanted this to happen...
She thought, hoping she could beat the clock to Zuki.

Foxtrot was cheering on what was happening. He got all what he wanted. He has gotten a giant cake made like a castle. He grinned as he made the first cut and everyone cheered. Except that Zuki wasn't there to see him. Foxtrot was worried, but he would check up on him after the party.
Zuki stood in his room, staring out the window. He held his blade in his hand, watching the moon rising to the sky. When it finally hit the top, he sighed. "She hasn't came yet..." He sighed, not wanting to do this, but he had to. He rose the blade up and aimed it at his heart, feeling it burn into his skin.

Karita's heart pounded as she ran, glancing back to check the moon. She then climbed up the castle walls, her lion feet helping her do this easily.
"Zuki? Zuki!"
Karita saw Zuki with his blade, and she pulled it out of him, tears falling faster and faster.
Please, please, let it have avoided his heart...
She thought, tossing the blade away.

Zuki was almost to his heart, but then felt the blade pull out from him as he fell foward, breathing heavily. "Who... Stopped... Me..?" He had his eyes closed the whole time, feeling anger rise in him, but he was weak. The blade went in deep, but not deep enough to reach his heart.
Zuki then opened his eyes and looked at the legs. He then looked up, seeing Karita. "Karita... You are... here..."

Karita started to cry into Zuki's shoulder, though he was weak.
"Zuki...I'm so...sorry..."
She said between sobs, almost choking on her tears.

Zuki felt glad and happy that she was here. "Karita... I thought you hated me..." He wrapped his arms around her and held her tightly. He was so happy that she came and that she really did care.

"Zuki, I was...just...mad.."
Karita said, still sobbing. She then pulled away from him, staring out of the window.
"I don't...deserve...to be...your wife...there are...probably tons...of better...girls out there...than me..."
She said, falling onto the bed, making the pillow soak with her tears.

Zuki shook his head. "No... There is no better woman, than you, Karita. All the other women are spoiled and act like they know everything, when they just want to be a bitch, that's all." He went over to her, his blood was still pouring from his chest, running down from it. He ignored it as he wanted Karita. "Please Karita... I want you. I never meant to make you upset. I never wanted to make you leave. Please... Please stay with me."
