• 'Jasmine!' Kamijo called from his chamber, 'are they here yet?'
    Jasmine You entered, a frail scent of roses lingered around him, his rings clinged as he played with his soft locks.
    'Kamijo you know Yuki, he'll spend at least an hour with them before he realises he needs to get back here.'
    'But it has been two hours!'
    'Yes Kamijo, but it is a carriage they are taking, you know how long the journey is.'
    Kamijo kicked the chair beside him, almost knocking it down. Teru and Hizaki were coming back after so many months of whatever it was they were doing. He missed Teru, and he missed Hizaki also, especially Hizaki...
    'Kamijo?'Jasmine said, grinning as he looked out of the window.
    'What is it? If it's another child...'
    'No, not that, they're back.'
    Kamijo's eyes lit up, and he ran towards the stairs, they were back...
    He paused at the top of the great stair case and looked down.
    'Teru!'
    'Ah...Kamijo! It's been so long!' Kamijo flew down the stairs and embraced him. He didn't look different, the same white black hair, the sparkling eyes.
    'Kamijo, let go of him, you might end up killing another descendant.' Yuki said, looking tired. Of course he was, Hizaki always carried so much luggage!
    'Yuki! Be careful with those bags! If they're damaged...'
    A beautiful scent of roses in deep bloom filled the room, so much stronger than the rest...it was as if some had filled the entire mansion with bouquets of deep, red roses...A familiar smell...
    'Hizaki...'
    'Hello Kamijo...Did you miss me?' The blonde curls, those full lips...wouldn't anyone?
    Yuki shuffled past Hizaki and Kamijo, carrying the cases of items into rooms, Teru followed, asking questions rapidly.
    'Dearest Hizaki, of course I missed you. You were away from me for so long. Are you well?'
    Hizaki let out a small but tinkling laugh, like thousands of chimes in the spring breeze.
    'Kamijo it has only been eleven months, you could not have been lonely...You had Jasmine and Yuki.'
    'Hmph! Don't make me laugh, Loneliness? I've been through much more of that than you ever will, now come, let me take you to your chamber. You must be so tired!..'
    As the two walked up the stairs, a pair of eyes looked out from Kamijo's door.
    And they looked angry...
