These characters of course do not belong to me. I wish that they could, but, alas, I did not invent them. Takeuchi Naoko was the one gifted with their creation, and they are still hers.



Not on sacred ground

Raye bit back the sigh that was trying to escape. She was supposed to be safe here. She was not supposed to have to deal with the political machine that whirled about her father while she was at Grandfather's. That was set in stone. Carved as deep as she could make it. Mr. Kaidou was breaking that rule.

"Why did you not call your parents?" His aggravation came through loud and clear.

Raye looked out over the porch rail. She was not going to deal with this here. This was her haven. Moving purposely off the porch, she headed for his car. "Let's go some where we can talk about this in private."

Kaidou strode past her, making it to the car door before her. Blocking it, he looked down at her, a frown marring his face. "We can talk about it here. This area is fairly safe from prying eyes and ears."

Turing on her heel, she walked down the path towards the road. The trees clung to either side, making the way before her seem to last forever. She could hear Kaidou's footsteps behind her, chasing after her. 'He shouldn't be here. This is Grandfather's sacred ground. He as always told me that the Great Spirit holds fast in these woods. I will not have Father and his minions bring their problems here.'

As she stepped on to the sidewalk, she searched the area around her, automatically checking for observers for the coming talk. With a quick impatient flip of her hair, she looked back at the man who was following her.

Kaidou folded his arms as he stepped off the path. "Why are you making this so difficult?"

Raye tilted her head up so that she could see his face clearly. "Your family is Japanese. I have read that you worship the kami. It is your name for the spirits of the land. Correct?"

"Some Japanese do, yes. I myself...." His words slipped out before he caught himself. "That has nothing to do with my question."

Raye looked back at the towering trees. "This land is as sacred as one of their temples. Think of it as a temple to the Great Spirit. This... discussion you want to have should not be held here. If you want to follow me, there is a deserted lot down this way. We can talk about this there." With a gesture, she lead the way down the road.

His frown deepening, he followed her not wanting to give her a chance of escaping.
