AUTHOR'S NOTE: Sorry it's been so long. I'm in the middle of changing jobs. Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about my stories or you guys! This chapter is short, but at least it's something to tide you over till I can put my attention back on writing.

Chapter 13

Standing in the shadows of the trees, Sekhmet watches the house by the lake. Staring at the people as they come and go, looking for the one he wants. The one he meant to kill, but who was saved.

I can be patient, Bitch! I can wait a long time. They can't guard you forever!

Satsuki leaves her bedroom behind after getting dressed from her shared shower. No longer as glum as before, Satsuki walks down the stairs and enters the kitchen, where she finds Cye cooking.

“What's for breakfast?” she asks.

“What do you want?” he replies over his shoulder.

“No special treatment,” Satsuki says, all serious.

“No special treatment intended,” replies the Ronin of Trust. Shifting his weigh, Cye glances over his shoulder at her. “Everyone else is done and Kento finished the remains. So I have to start fresh. Now, what do you want?”

“Then I'll just do cereal,” she says, walking over to the cupboard.

“No cereal,” says Cye, with a quick grin.

“Toast?” she asks, a hand still on the cupboard door.

“French Toast? Sure, coming right up,” says Cye, turning back to the stove.

“I said toast,” she says, with a quick laugh.

“Sorry, can't hear you,” he replies.

Shaking her head, Satsuki leaves the kitchen to await her French Toast.
