It was the last mornig the small family would have together. They all knew this and sadness clung to the air around them. Tomoyo had summoned them to breakfast bright and early. Sakura sat next to the Nihon princess Syaoran sat next to his most precious person talking to Souma.
Kurogane sat on Tomoyo's other side Yuki sitting in his lap trying to keep the toddler from spilling food on his green kimono. Ryu sat in her mother's lap next to her twin and father. The blue eyed girl was clutching chopsticks waving them in the air. Mokona was dancing on the table entertaining everyone.
After breakfast Tomoyo had presented everyone with beautiful silk kimono's and yukata's she had made for the group. Tomoyo immediately had Sakura try her kimono on. After thanking the soothsayer for their gifts the family made their way towards their rooms to pack.
----------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------
Fai, Sakura, Syaoran, the twins, and Mokona stood out in Tomoyo's garden ready to say their final goodbyes. Sakura hugged Tomoyo telling her how much she would miss her new friend. The princess then gave her 'father' a near spine shattering hug, willing herself not to cry. Syaoran bowed respectively infront of the royalty. He also bowed and shook his sensei's hand being told that it was now his job to to watch over the family.
Mokona leaped onto Kurogane's face hugging and sobbing about 'missing Big Puppy'. Fai never took his eyes off Kurogane. The mage was the last to say his goodbyes and when he faced the man he loved he wrapped arms around the taller's neck burying his head on the other's shoulder.
The ninja guards and Souma who were standing nearby were shocked by the fact that someone was touching Kurogane and they weren't dead yet. They were even more surprised when the hug was returned. Fai let go turning towards the two teens who held Ryu and Yuki. He gathered the toddlers into his arms and turned back to his lover, handing them to him.
Kurogane looked down at the small faces of his daughter and son. It pained him to think that he would never see them again. He held them tight for a moment longer. Then he held his arms slightly out ready for Fai to receive the twins back into his arms. When the blonde didn't make a move to take them Kurogane became confused.
"What are you doing?" The shinobi asked Fai.
"I've decided that I want Yuki and Ryu to stay with you here Kuro-tan. It's much safer here." Fai looked at the ground as he spoke, too afraid Kurogane would read him like always.
"What about you, you're their mother, don't you want them?" Kurogane was beginning to anger at the blonde's idea.
"Of course I do, but you're their father and besides here they can have a home and I won't have to worry about landing in a dangerous world with two babies."
With this Kurogane laughed, those that had just found out about the twins parentage and the sound of Kurogane laughing were shocked and confused. The rest of the family along with Tomoyo were confused at the warrior's laughter. Fai looked on.
"Well, I guess it's a good thing that I'll be going with you, but first I need something from you, Fai come here."
(flashback)
Since he had talked to Fai the gruff ninja was going to drag Mokona away from the others so he could talk with the witch.
He was in one of the many rooms of the palace with Mokona, who had fallen asleep upon Kurogane's request(1). A picture of the dimension witch popped up.
"Yo, Kurogane!"
"I need to ask you something."
"heh, I figured as much, by the way your in a very expensive looking room. Where are you?"
"You know damn good and well were the hell I am!?"
"So what can I do for you ninja-sama?."
"I need a wish granted."
"What is your wish."
"To continue traveling with the kids, manjuu, and the magician."
"But you've gained your wish, you're back home why would you want to continue on a journey in which you have no idea how it will play out. A journey that, you know by now is rought with danger and heartbreak around every corner?"
"I understand that."
"You realize, I haven't named the price yet."
"Yes."
"Kurogane...you must give two things in order for your wish to be fufilled."
"What are they?"
"If you leave Nihon you may never look upon it again, the second thing you must give is the elixer of the life bearing tree."
"What is that?"
"The potion you received from the vendor woman, the potion that Fai drank in order to become pregnant. You still have it don't you?"
"Fai has it, he's kept in his coat."
"That is my price, will you still pay it?"
"Yes."
"Just give the elixer to Mokona once you get it."
"That's it?"
"Yes, that's it."
With that the transmission ended. Kurogane had to retrieve the bottle from Fai. He would do that tomorrow. Now he was just glad he had told Fai what he felt for the other. He was going with the others tomorrow evening, Tomoyo had wanted to send the others off with a large feast. He took the manjuu who was tucked in his arms to Sakura who was talking to Tomoyo, Syaoran by her side.
(End Flashback)
The ninja's proclamation had yet to sink in and the blonde walked towards the taller man. Kurogane walked up to Fai and stuck both his arms into the mage's white coat. Everyone was staring now looking at Nihon's strongest ninja who currently appeared to be groping the blonde mage in front of him.
"K-kuro-tan, what are you doing?"
"Looking for something, damnit why does this coat have so many pockets!?"
"Uhm, what are you looking for?"
"The bottle that you drank from that made you pregnant."
"Here I'll get it, but why do you need it?" Fai pulled Kurogane's wrist from his coat.
"To give to the pork bun."
"Does Kuro-fin want Moko-chan to have babies?"
"Don't dare even think like that, two pork buns are terrible enough." Kurogane grabbed the bottle and then tossed it in Mokona's direction who then swallowed it. The ninja then turned to the mage grinning and began walking towards Mokona who leapt up into the air spreading it's wings.
"I suppose that it's time for us to go, together."
"...Kuro-rin... heh...but only if Kuro-pup gives me a piggy back ride!"
"Never! Now hold onto Yuki, so we can go."
Everyone wore smiles on their faces. Sakura and Fai were on the verge of tears while syaoran could barely hide his happiness at the fact his sensei would still be venturing with them. Tomoyo gazed at one of her most loyal protecters.
"Kurogane, you have made your parents proud, and you have accomplished your task you have learned the meaning of true strength on your jourey from the people you love most. Because of this I will lift my curse from you, for I have seen perilous times ahead in which your former curse would have been a hinderence. Now go and farewell Kurogane you and your family will be welcome here if our paths cross again."
With a wave of a small hand the curse mark that had been embedded within Kurogane had emerged and flew to Tomoyo. The ninja bowed and in an instant dissppeared in a swirl of magic taken inside Mokona as they were taken away to the next world.
"Souma, let's return to the palace there are things that need to be done, so let's hurry!"
"Uh? Of course princess, ninja's, let's head out!"
