Shadow`s of the enemy

miru gave out a faint smile now, but her head lowerd as blood chocked out from her mouth, around a liter or that, miru feel into the small pool of blood but was breathing and had opend eyes

Shiro saw the blood and hid her face at itachi

"!!!" Toshi abandoned her chopsticks and started cleaning up the blood. "Miru-san, you have blood on your clothes...you need to change..." She took Miru's arm and lightly tugged her to the door.

Nedia cleaned up the blood on the counter and the floor, and started making riceballs. "Itachi, put Shiro on the baby chair and help me with this.."

Itachi let out a sigh but feelt something pull his shirt and looked down at jaschu"..want to hold her?..", jaschu made a small nod and the oldest uchiha sibling handed jaschu his sister befor helping nedia"..whats wrong with miru?", he asked silent as samu and jaschu tried to comfort shiro

MIru`s steps were slow and toshi could feel her heart didnt pump so much as it had in the morning..

"She doesn't believe Toshi loves her," he simply said, and began moulding the rice into bulky triangles. "It's pretty obvious that she does, though. She's just like how Toshi doesn't believe Aiden-baka loves her. But in a different sense of love, that is."

"Miru-san, you're getting weak." Toshi slung Miru's arm on her shoulders and hoisted the Uchiha to her and Samu's room. "What's wrong?"

MIru sat down on the bed and let her long black hair cover her eyes"..i dont know toshi..i..really dont know.."

Itachi let out a sigh"...toshi loves me because i have a similar look to my grandfather....i guess theres some memories she just cant forget, and it affects her here..if we can get her to remeber the time were miru was her mother and remove the bad parts..maby it will make toshi more happy and fix miru.."

Toshi took out a kimono from the closet and helped Miru change into it. As she helped wrap the obi, she couldn't help but notice that the seals were gone. "Miru-san, what happened to the markings?"

Nedia shrugged. "It is possible, but very hard. Plus the fact Naka has a thicker skull than most will add more difficulty to it..."

"..he removed them so i stopped being a target for the demon gods the akuma clan worships..", miru chocked up a ittle mroe blood but coverd her mouth with the hand"..thats..why ive bein felling like this..he also removed the seals i put on myself to prevent some side effects i have from a few of my jutsu`s..."

Itachi looked down and finished anthoder rice ball"..its worth trying..how you think toshi will react if miru died?.."

Toshi passed Miru a tissue and gently smoothed out the folds of the obi. "That's nice of him," she said, and smiled.

Nedia put another riceball onto the plate. "She'd either get broken down and live like Miru... or she'll just kill herself all over again."

Itachi let out anthoder sigh"..asmo removed the seals me and samu placed on miru to prevent her blood veins from getting destroyed..they can onnly be put back on place bye him.."

Miru looked own"..no its not nice..without thoose seals i..will die"

"Oh boy....That's going to be a problem. I'll get to it, don't worry." Nedia smiled assuringly and quickly finished making the riceballs. "Okay, then, dinner's ready."

Toshi frowned and pushed the hair from her face. "What can I do to set things right?"

"..welll there is one thing, but it means you will get infected bye the curse youself and we would have to feed on eachtoders blood every hour for 2 months.."

Itachi lifted a eyebrow but simply sat down

Toshi nodded her head vigorously. "Of course! No problem!"

Nedia wiped his hands, served the riceballs and smiled to Jashu. "Jashu-chan, would you please go up and get the girls?"

Jaschu made a nod and handed shiro to samu befor going up the stairs and peeking in"..dinner ready okaa-sama, onee-chan.."

Miru let out a sigh"..alright..lets do it after dinner then..when everyone sleeps.."

((let persephone find shiro while they eatxD))

Toshi nodded and smiled determinedly. She helped Miru down the stairs, then went straight to Nedia as soon as the Uchiha sat down. "Itadakimasu!"

'Hm...they should be eating right about now...' Persephone appeared at the Uchiha front gates, concealed with darkness. She loved taking advantage of her stealth skills. Silently,she sneaked in, going to the kitchen where they ate, unseen.

Miru simply looked down on her bowl and didnt even move, but finaly samu convined her to eat and begang feeding her

Shiro had craweld away from jaschu and was sitting in front of the door, looking curios up at Persephone

Toshi smiled happily as they had dinner, though the mood was a bit dampened by Miru's depression. Nedia smiled too, and chatted idly as they ate.

"Hm?" Persephone almost stepped on the baby, but picked her up. "What the...black Uchiha hair, and...brown eyes?" She frowned. Uchihas didn't have brown eyes. But Toshi did. "Oh my..." She narrowed her eyes as she examined Shiro. "I'm going to have to bring you along, kid..." She wrapped Shiro in her jacket, showing the sleeveless top she had on, and brought her away.

((her hair is darkbluex.x))

"m..m..mama!", shiro was about to cry when persephone begang walking and had her little hand lifted towards the kitchen door

((oh! Oops n.n" ))

Persephone sighed, and put on a smile. "Don't worry, sweetie, your mama's just busy for now..." she said, looking very motherly. "Trust me... please?" She smiled wider, and stroked the baby's cheek.

Persephone could hear footsteps going down the stairs, due to the light and silent walking it could only be the oldest of the uchiha`s

Shiro lifted her hand towards the stairs now"..papa.."

Persephone narrowed her eyes as she heard it. "So Itachi's your daddy, huh? Well, baby bro's not going to like this..." She wrapped the jacket tighter, tucking the baby's arms in, and turned to leave.

Shiro begang sobbing but little after little her brown eyes closed and feel asleep

Persephone ran away from the grounds, and came to a motel where she had been staying. Asmo would have stayed there too, if he weren't so interested in plotting.

Toshi burped lightly as she finished eating. "That was delicious, Miru-san...!"

Shiro begang awaking when they enetered the room and looked around"..brother..`?"

Samu had forced, well convinced miru to eat a small bowl of rice, miru didnt really show any emotion even if the loud noices from her belly told her to eat

Persephone made a make-shift cot on her bed and placed Shiro in. "He'll be here soon...." 'She has a brother?'

"Yummy... How did you like it, Shiro-ch- Shiro-chan?!"

Itachi burst into the kitchen"...i can smell persephone has bein in the hallway..that demon bi*tch has taken her...."

Miru got to her feet bye that and took her katana resting bye the wall"...", jaschu took a hold of her hand"..okaa-sama dont..stay home..we will go", miru shock her head

Shiro begang crying"..m..mama papa."
