Chapter 9
Standing outside, Ryo stares up at the rising moon. Hours had past since the revelation was made in the living room. They had been attacked yet again, but in such a way, that it was by far the worst. Though no blood was spilt, the wounds were deep.
“Ryo?” calls a female voice.
Turning, Ryo finds himself joined by his wife.
“Mia.”
“I spoke with Cye,” says Mia, joining her husband and placing her hands at his waist. “He told me what happened.”
Shaking his head, Ryo blinks his eyes only to find a wetness slide down his face. Raising a hand, he brushes the tears away.
“We have been through so much,” says Ryo, shaking his head. “They have hurt us in so many ways. But this?!”
“I know,” says Mia, before leaning in to hold her man.
“Why did they have to hurt our baby like this?” asks Ryo, his voice broken. “She had nothing to do with it.”
Burying his face into her hair, Ryo breathes in the scent that is his wife. Lifting his head, Ryo finds himself staring into Mia's eyes.
“This has to end,” says Ryo, his voice gaining strength.
“You stopped them once,” says Mia, firmly. “You will do it again.”
Nodding his head, Ryo steps from his wife and once again stares at the rising moon.

Laying on her bed, Kaida stares up at the ceiling of her bedroom. Though Kira shares the room with her, her friend decided to sleep with Nami that night, sensing that Kaida needed time alone. But as the night dragged on, Kaida found that she wasn't tired.
As it closed in on midnight, Kaida finally decided to at least attempt sleep. Rising from her bed, she makes her to the light switch, but just before she turns it out, she hears a knock at the door.
“Yeah?” she calls, wondering whom it could be.
As the door slowly open, Kaida wonders if it would have been better to not answer at all. Entering the room and shutting the door behind them, Sekhmet and Dais stare at the young woman. Minutes fly by before anyone says anything.
“We don't know what to say to you,” says Sekhmet, glancing between himself and Dais.
“Was any of it real?” asks Kaida, staring at the floor, finding herself unable to look at the two men.
“How do you want us to answer that, little one?” asks Dais, stepping over to the girl and laying a hand on her chin.
Rising her chin so that he can look into her eyes, Dais slides his hand to her cheek.
“The truth?” she asks, her eyes silently demanding.
“I can tell you that you are desirable to me,” says Dais, stroking her cheek. “But, I would never have taken you in such a way.”
Nodding her head, Kaida glances at the green haired warrior.
“And you?” she asks.
“I have not found such pleasure for a long time,” says Sekhmet, shaking his head. “It angers me to know that it was tainted by such evilness.”
“But what of you?” asks Dais, gaining Kaida's attention. “Sekhmet told me the truth he felt when he slipped inside of you.”
“What?” asks Kaida, glancing between the two men.
“You've never known a man,” says Sekhmet, staring at the dark haired, blue-eyed woman.
Glancing away from the two men, Kaida feels a blush steal across her face.
“I didn't know it could be like that,” says Kaida, shaking her head.
Slowly she returns her gaze to the two men.
“It can always be like that,” says Dais, dropping his hand from her face.
“Between us?” she asks, afraid of what they might say.
“I wouldn't think you would want us like that,” says Sekhmet. “We have been used before, but you were innocent. I wouldn't think you would want the reminder.”
“I don't know,” says Kaida, shaking her head. “As Lady Kayra said, you both are as much victims as I am.”
“I will be honest, Kaida,” says Dais, gaining the attention of the young woman. “While all of us were manipulated, you were the one made to take us. We are victims in a different sense than you.”
Nodding her head, she says nothing for a moment. Needing to know the truth about herself, she decides to ask them men before her.
“Was it me?” asks Kaida, glancing between the two men. “Is there a slut in me or did they put it in me?”
“We don't know,” replies Sekhmet, shaking his head.
“But, Kaida,” says Dais, again placing a hand on her cheek. “It's not wrong to enjoy the pleasure to be found between a man and a woman.”
Nodding her head yet again, Kaida rubs her face into Dais' hand before stepping back from him. Staring at her two lovers, Kaida wonders what it would be like without the Dynasty's influence.
“I need time to think,” says Kaida.
Glancing between the two men, Kaida wonders what her world will be like if she decides to take both men as lovers again.
“Things will be different between us now,” says Dais, taking a step toward the door.
Nodding his head, Sekhmet also moves to the door.
“We'll give you time to think,” says Sekhmet, placing a hand on the doorknob and opening the door. “Good night.”
“Good night,” replies Kaida, watching the two men leave her room.

In the realm of the Dynasty, Badamon watches over the Mouri house, displeased that the strike did not go as planned. He had hoped that the Ronins would not realize that he influenced the attack on the girl. He had thought that with the past animosities between the Ronins and Warlords, they would think that the Warlords had struck on their own, even though they had not.
But even he had to admit that the strike was not a total lose. While they knew that the Warlords had not acted alone, everyone involved had still been hurt. No, definitely not a total loss.
“They shall not know how I will strike next,” says Badamon to himself. “They will be weary of every little thing. By the time I am done, they will be glad when the final blow falls.”
Staring into the all seeing mists, Badamon begins to form a new plan on how to strike out against the Ronin Warriors.
