It was during this period that an entirely new view of the world was opened to Korian’s family and they set about the task of understanding exactly how the universe worked. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Shihori was sparring with her mother across the lush green landscape of this godly world, she had gotten more focused in the succeeding months of training under her father and the Supreme Kai’s tutelage. This allowed her to more finely focus her energy to grow not just as a martial artist but matured more in mind as she came to understand what her parents had to face out there. Sorrel blocked a pinpoint strike from her daughter that nearly caught her by surprise. The mother and daughter duo showed exceptional teamwork in their fighting as each combatant could read the moves of the other, perhaps this was something stemming from the bond of parent and child. Shihori pressured her mother further by transforming into a Super Saiyan, her long golden hair lifting off her shoulders and tinting her normally brown furry ears a shining gold, those fiery red eyes that Sorrel bestowed on her daughter washed over into a piercing blue. The speed and ferocity of the little girl increased the moment she showed her Saiyan lineage, Sorrel struggled to keep up with her daughter and the intense combination of strikes she dealt out against her. She was soundly rocked back by a sharp blow to the stomach which caused her to dart through the air like a projectile, she managed to release her own Ki to put a stop to her unchecked momentum. A jagged white aura of energy surrounding her body as she presented her hands in front of her body in preparation to fire the Fox energy wave. Shihori realized quickly what her mother was up to and mirrored her movements in anticipation of the incoming attack, her golden aura flaring up around her body as she charged the attack and let it fly at the same time her mother unleashed her own energy wave. The two blue beams colliding head long into one another, this began to rock the ground and sent gusts of wind in a backlash effect at each attacker. Both pairs of rabbit ears fluttered in the wild breeze caused by the impact of their attacks, but Shihori was holding back and she let her mother know it by crying out “HAAAA!” The rush of energy shot forth which overwhelmed Sorrel’s attack completely, she just barely was able to break off her own attack in time to dodge her daughter’s incoming fire, she felt the searing energy singe the fur on her face as it streamed past in a blinding flash. Both ladies were out of breath after the clash and Sorrel lowered herself down to the ground with a smirk to the little hybrid bunny. “Good job, Shihori. You had me bested on that one.” The little girl reciprocated her mother’s gesture and came down for a touchdown, as her feet met the ground she powered down and her golden hair fell softly back to its normal shade of dark brown she shared with her father. “Thanks, Mama. I’ve been practicing with grandma.” Sorrel put her arm around her daughter and gestured over to one of the floating grass islands some distance away. “Come on, let’s go see what your father is up to.” </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Not far away, Korian sat cross legged in a meditative pose, the tips of his fingers resting against one another with his head bowed slightly and eyes closed. Roh was standing directly in front of him with his hands clasped behind his back. “Focus yourself and reach out into the expanse, you must know what you seek if you aim to reach it.” The Supreme Kai was attempting to teach Korian how to reach out and sense people, places, and things across great distances like the Kai were able to manage, but Korian had been having difficulties calming his mind. It seemed to stem from his training under Kitsune where his mind would always be working to the next move in combat. The sly martial arts master had created a thinker, but now it seemed to work to his detriment. Korian groaned and opened his eyes to look straight at Roh, he slapped his hands against his legs in frustration. “It’s no use! I can’t quiet my thoughts long enough to get where I need to be.” Roh furrowed his brow and shot him a look of contempt. “Tch. Not with that attitude you won’t, you stubborn Saiyan. How do you expect to be able to learn the Kai Kai technique if you can’t even sense who or what you need to reach?” Shihori and Sorrel joined them on the platform which drew the pair’s attention. “How is your training coming along, ladies?” Roh inquired with interest as the two seemed to be much more focused and adept in his opinion than the block headed Saiyan. Shihori gave the Kai an approving thumbs up which accompanied a self-satisfactory smile. Sorrel turned her attention to the frustrated Korian and ruffled his spikey hair playfully. “What’s got you tied in knots?” Korian shrugged in response and gave his wife a sigh. “He expects me to be able to sense people and things I’ve never seen before, which is impossible. You don’t know, what you don’t know, Kitsune would always say, stop trying to account for things you can’t control.” He hung his head in his hands and sighed again. “Maybe you’re coming at this from the wrong angle? Maybe you should try a place you’ve been to, a person you’ve met before, try familiarity before branching out into the unknown.” This suggestion seemed to grab his attention as well as Roh’s who was astonished that this former street urchin could be so insightful. “I’ll give it a shot.” Shihori came over and patted her father on the opposite shoulder where Sorrel was standing. “You can do it, Papa, I believe in you.” Korian closed his eyes and tried to relax and reach out to the memory of a place or familiar person. His mind wandered to years ago when he and Sorrel had visited planet Metius and met Hopp for the first time. He felt some tension in his body release as he focused on where he wanted to go and who he wanted to see. Suddenly, he focused his energy in the way Roh had instructed him, he felt himself slip out of his being and he vanished in a flash along with his wife and daughter who each had a hand on him at the time. This surprised Roh, who immediately rushed over to his crystal ball to search for the trio somewhere in the known universe. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Korian, Sorrel, and Shihori appeared in unfamiliar surroundings and they seemed to be standing in a steamy room with the sound of water running. This was strange, Korian thought to himself, but the sound of water suddenly stopped. Once the moisture in the air cleared Korian’s eyes grew wide in disbelief, he felt a sudden rush of blood to his head which caused him to blush profusely. They had managed to reach Hopp as he intended, but it seems they intruded on her when she was taking a shower, she stood with a look of utter horror on her face as Shihori began to casually wave at the purple feline. “Hi, Auntie Hopp.” The purple cat began to scream as she desperately tried to cover her indecent exposure with arms. Sorrel looked about frantically, and she quickly covered Shihori’s eyes. She then turned her attention to Korian who was still staring and starting to get a nosebleed. “Stop staring ya jerk!!!” Sorrel clobbered Korian over the head with her fist which caused him to snap out of it and begin to apologize to his still screaming host. Sorrel managed to drag her husband and her blind folded daughter out of the bathroom and Hopp’s house so they could give her friend some time to gather herself together. Once cooler heads prevailed and Korian apologized profusely some more, the four sat down to a nice chat, yet strangely Korian and Hopp never looked directly at one another the entire time. “Huh? So, they came back again, and you defeated them, but Towa got away?” Sorrel nodded solemnly since it was her fault that she didn’t put a stop to Towa when she had the chance. “Yeah, but Mira’s dead for sure this time. I watched Korian explode him into teeny, tiny, pieces myself.” Hopp just chuckled and smiled at Shihori who was sipping on a glass of milk that she had given her. “You’ve sprouted up like a weed, kiddo. What are your parents feeding you?” Korian just chuckled as an ice breaker, he still felt embarrassed for barging in on Hopp unannounced. “Well, we don’t want to impose on you any longer. Next time, we’ll call before we drop by.” Hopp just blinked as she tried to wrap her mind around exactly what he meant by that and shook off the dumb remark. Sorrel shrugged as she helped gather up Shihori before they all proceeded to the door to head outside. Once they were both gathered up around him, Shihori and Sorrel waved good-bye for now with Korian focusing on returning to Roh’s planet in one piece. They vanished in a flash and returned to their exact spot of departure. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Upon their arrival, the Supreme Kai was there to greet them, but something was off about him, he seemed to have gotten a nosebleed while he was peering into his crystal ball. Sorrel just clenched her fist in anger and exploded with rage at the fact she was surrounded by lecherous men. “Why you!!! Using your position to peep on naked ladies, are we? Come here so I can shove that crystal ball up your ass!” Roh began to back off as he was charged by a tiny, demonic rabbit who snatched up his crystal ball and began to chase him around with it while simultaneously attempting to smash it over his head. Korian and Shihori just stood by trying not to make any sudden movements which might attract Sorrel’s wrath. “heh heh heh” they both meekly chucked to themselves as her onslaught on the Kai continued.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Age 780, <em>Planet Basur</em> </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">[ATTACH]117[/ATTACH]</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Shihori was on guard as she fought, she brushed the hair off her face with a smile as she sent her power through the roof and transformed into a Super Saiyan. Close in behind her came her father slicing the air with a sharp kick which she just barely managed to dodge. Next, she spun to intercept a punch directed at her back from her mother who had circled around and tried to spring a sneak attack from above. She clutched onto Sorrel’s forearm and whipped her aside as her attention was caught by the surging power level of her father who transformed into a Super Saiyan. She wasted no time and thrusted her gloved hand forward to fire off a full power energy wave at her now attacking father. The beam was intercepted bare handed and cast off into the sky once he raised his power further still. Shihori didn’t forget about Sorrel who was trying to act sneaky again and get the drop on her, she flew in low on the white rabbit and threw a left which was dodged by an increase in speed from her mother. Both ladies smiled to one another during their spar. Korian, well he couldn’t be happier to see how far his wife and daughter had progressed in their training. Sorrel was now at least as strong as Shihori’s Super Saiyan form and his little girl, who wasn’t so little anymore, had managed to increase her power by leaps and bounds since her training on the Sacred World of the Kais. “Alright, girls! I think that’s enough for today. Great job, you two!” He was the first to power down and break from combat but much to his surprise Sorrel and Shihori were locked in a rapid barrage of attacking and defending against one another. Korian smiled to himself as he was so proud of Shihori’s discipline, all business like her mother when she got down to it. The two ladies then separated and Shihori’s golden hair faded back to dark brown. “You sure have gotten strong, Mom. Even those hits I managed to block are sure to leave a mark.” Sorrel smirked as she followed suite with her daughter and came to a relaxed pose. “Don’t count me out yet, sweetie. Your mom is full of surprises.” Korian joined the two and threw his arms around both of their shoulders and began to squeeze them both tight against his chest. “That is until Dad gets involved then you’re both in trouble. Ha ha!” Shihori just giggled at her father’s playful antics and Sorrel groaned at the squeeze her husband put on her hat. “Sure thing, dear.” She managed to slip out of his grasp and adjusted her hat back to her liking. The three of them headed back for home as it was getting late and Korian’s stomach had alarmed them that it was dangerously close to dinner time. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Shihori now twelve years old and dangerously on the cusp of her teenage years showed a confidence in how she carried herself. Her father always reminded her to think ahead when she fought and to not let anger or frustration rule the day. Of course, while she was a levelheaded young lady, this didn’t stop her snarky teen attitude from rearing its head occasionally, she was too much like her mother sometimes.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Back at home, the whole family sat down to a nice hot meal which Shihori had assisted her grandmother in preparing. Shihori was very animatedly explaining today’s training session to Kitsune complete with hand gestures. “And then Dad tried to come at me like this, but I was like no way and blasted him really good!” Kitsune was amused by her antics and Korian just lightly shook his head at Shihori’s exaggerations. “So, are you still planning to travel to Universe 7 tomorrow and find your old home, Korian?” Kitsune asked trying to strike up some polite conversation with her son. The Saiyan just nodded with a mouth full of food that was quickly swallowed. “We sure are. You should come with us. I’d like for us all to experience where I came from together.”</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Korian had eagerly taken an interest in learning about his heritage once he had become fully aware that he wasn’t from this universe. The Supreme Kai filled in some blanks for him when they had trained together, he explained that there were twelve universes in all and that they resided in the ninth universe. He further extrapolated that Korian was from the seventh universe due to his Saiyan heritage and the fact that based on Korian’s recollections all the other Saiyans had been wiped out but himself. Korian had managed to enable the use of the Kai Kai technique but was still handicapped in the ability to use it fully without godly Ki. Since he could remember his home world in bits and pieces from when he was a small boy, he may be able to bridge the gap between their separate universes and travel to his former home. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Early the next morning, Shihori and Korian were headed off to the city to pick up some supplies for their trip. They duo bid Sorrel and Kitsune farewell before they flew off into the sky to take care of their errands. Kitsune was helping Sorrel pack a few bags when there was a knock at the front door of their home,” Be right there!” Sorrel called out as she made her way to the door, once she opened the door, she was rather shocked by the appearance of some familiar faces that she had not expect to see. Bergamo and his two brothers were on her doorstep but they were flanked by an unusual looking man she had never seen before, he was tall with light blue skin and white hair that hung parted on either side of his face, he was also clutching a staff with a green orb encircled by a blue ring. “Bergamo?! What brings you here?” The tall gray wolf looked down at the short white rabbit with a stoic expression on his face and as a matter of fact neither of his brothers were looking pleased to be here either. “Hello, Sorrel. May we come in? We have something we need to discuss.” Sorrel stepped aside to allow them into her home which surprised Kitsune who had stopped packing and stood to watch these strangers enter her family’s home. Bergamo nodded to the fox in greeting as everyone came inside the house followed by Sorrel, she offered everyone a seat at her table which the three wolf brothers accepted, but the other one just gave her a smile. “I’m fine, thank you for your hospitality.” Sorrel went about offering everyone some tea as she poured out a few cups and sat down with one herself. “So, you said you wanted to talk?” Bergamo just looked down into the steaming cup of tea that she had offered to him before he looked back up and began to explain his presence. “We would like to recruit you for a tournament that is being held today and I hope you’ll agree to participate because frankly, the fate of the entire universe depends on it.” This shocked both Kitsune and Sorrel into wide eyed expressions as the entire situation was explained in detail to them about the Tournament of Power being held between universes in presence of the King of All and the fate of those who failed to claim victory. Sorrel was unnerved to put it lightly and her leg bounced nervous as she considered the possibilities of what might befall them. “So, you need my help to win this tournament against eight other universes? That’s a tall order.” Her eyes switched their attention over to the blue skinned man who was examining her family pictures in the living room. “I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name. Who might you be?” He set down a framed photo of Korian, Shihori as a toddler, and herself that was taken more than a decade prior. “How very rude of me. I am Mojito, attendant to Lord Sidra, the God of Destruction of our universe.” Sorrel’s heart felt like it climbed into her throat and her expression showed it as he introduced himself title and all. “Oh, is that so? Pleased to meet you.” Bergamo and his brothers stared nervously at Sorrel seemingly all at once awaiting her answer. “What about that man you were involved with when we fought back then? He would be a great addition to our numbers.” Sorrel couldn’t bring up Korian in front of Mojito, while Roh kept his end of the bargain to not bring him up to Sidra, she couldn’t risk how he might react once he found out how powerful her husband was and how he ended up in Universe 9 in the first place. She thought up some bull shit rather quickly and tried to look down. “Oh, my late husband and daughter passed away some years ago in an attack.” Kitsune’s ears twitched in reaction to her lies but she kept quiet. Sorrel continued the act, “His mother is the only family I have left.” She feigned wiping a tear from her eye and clutched Kitsune by the hand in a fake display of consolation. Bergamo and his brothers began to look down and offered their condolences. Mojito on the other hand just remained cold and unreadable until the tense moment broke, “Is that so? How very dreadful. My sincerest condolences for your loss.” Sorrel nodded in thanks and returned her attention back to Bergamo. “I’ll join your cause. I’ll do whatever it takes to protect our home.” Bergamo stood up alongside his brothers and smiled very appreciatively for her acceptance. “Excellent, we do need to hurry since we’re short a few fighters.” Mojito interjected “Yes, if you would kindly accompany us now so we may begin our preparations for the tournament. Time is short.” This caught Sorrel by surprise, and she bit down on her lower lip very anxiously, but she just nodded to Mojito. “If I may have a moment to say goodbye to my mother in law. This may be the last time we see each other after all.” Mojito nodded in agreeance to her request and began to usher the Trio de Danger outside the house for their departure, before leaving though he did turn back and give a smirk before he exited the house. Sorrel stood up and pulled Kitsune into a tight hug which was one of the only truthful things she had done in the last couple of minutes. She also whispered into her ear. “Take them and go, lie to them, do whatever it takes because we both know what Sidra might do if he ever finds out about Korian.” Kitsune was overcome with emotion by her request, it was a strange mix of confusion and sadness as tears welled up in her eyes. She looked down to her daughter in law who also had tears streaming uncontrollably down her face. “I love you, Sorrel, you just remember that your family needs you and you get back to us. You hear me?” The tiny white rabbit wiped her face and tried to smile bravely as she gave an understanding nod. As they parted ways and Sorrel opened the front door to depart, giving her home and Kitsune one last look before leaving with the others.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Not long after, Korian and Shihori had returned home from their errands with some bags of food and such in tow. Shihori saw Kitsune waiting under the tree in the front yard and ran to her grandmother with a big smile. “Hi, grandma! Ready to go? I’m so excited!” Kitsune forced a smile and tried her hardest to mask the overwhelming sadness of lying to her granddaughter. “Of course, my little honey bunny.” Shihori ran to the house and started to call out for her mother, but Kitsune called after her to stop. “Wait, Shihori. Your mother….” she hesitated as she spoke, but soon found the words. “Your mother isn’t coming with us this time.” Both Korian and Shihori looked confused by her words, but she tried to her best to come up with something on the fly. “The Supreme Kai stopped by and requested that she go visit her friend Hopp who apparently isn’t feeling well. You know your mother always worrying about everyone but herself.” Korian’s brow furrowed and Shihori looked equally confused by her utter bull shit explanation. “But she insisted that we head on out and once all is well; she can have the Supreme Kai take her to us. She doesn’t want you to miss your first trip to another universe after all.” Kitsune tried to sound as convincing as possible and Shihori’s expression softened. “Okay, grandma. Mom sure is thoughtful after all.” Korian pondered her explanation for a moment. “Well, why don’t we just wait for her to get back here so we can all go together?” Kitsune elbowed him sharply in the ribs. “What?! And disappoint Shihori? You know how furious that would make Sorrel.” Korian’s expression shifted to one of realization that this could get him in trouble with his wife and he tried to laugh it off like he was kidding. “Oh, I would never. Who me?! Nah. You’re right.” Shihori chuckled at her father who was being a goof and Kitsune breathed a sigh of relief. The three of them gathered everything together with the ladies each carrying a backpack and Korian strapped down with a few bags and carrying a large duffel in his free hand. “Okay, you two, hang on tight and keep your fingers crossed!” Korian began to focus on thoughts of his childhood and got visions of a wind-swept grassland with a small domed shaped house dotting the landscape. He homed in on this feeling as reached out for it and suddenly the trio vanished into thin air.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">And so, the Tournament of Power had begun, and a sinister fate quickly befell Universe 9. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Universe 7, <em>Planetoid Pas</em> </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">In a flash Korian and his passengers appeared onto a windy plain, the ladies staring in awe of the foreign land they now stood on. As for Korian, a sense of familiarity washed over him as he spotted the dome shaped house off in the distance. “We made it. I’m home.” A quick flight over to the house showed that it had seen better days, but mostly remained intact. Korian pushed open the front door and was met with a rush of cold dread on what he might find inside. Choppy memories flashed before his eyes like a dream, he saw a woman sitting at work bench in the corner and a man who he bore a resemblance sitting at the dusty table near the kitchen. He proceeded further inside and stared around in awe at the remains of what was once his early childhood home. Shihori and Kitsune each fanned out to inspect the layout of the house. Korian stopped at the work bench over in the corner of the house, near-by there appeared to be an attached garage that now stood empty. On the table there were still dusty tools left in their place for decades and a computer with a monitor. He pressed some buttons and it surprisingly sprang to life with a hum of energy. On the monitor appeared a small display with some functions labeled one of which caught his eye called ‘LOG’, so he tapped a few keys to highlight the ‘LOG’ and hit the return key. Suddenly, a woman with long dark brown hair and eyes appeared on the screen and began to speak. “I’ve successfully reconfigured the beacon on the captured ship to send the proper frequency if Kabo were to be detected in mid-flight. Hopefully, I can access the star charts on its mainframe, so we know exactly where Freeza’s forces are based.” The woman stopped as a child’s voice called out from across the room. “Mama! Papa is almost home, time to eat!” The woman smiled and reached out to pick up the small child which shocked Korian to the core as he was staring into his younger face sitting on the woman’s lap. The door behind the woman opened and a tall, muscular man appeared in the middle of the room. “Yo! Parserii, Korian, I’m home!” His younger self excitedly hopped down off her lap and ran over to the man who scooped him up and placed him on his shoulders. The woman smiled at the scene and leaned in to switch off the monitor and the screen went blank. Korian sank down in the chair near the work bench in disbelief. Kitsune had placed a hand on his shoulder and Shihori was at his side looking concerned for him. “Papa, are you okay?” Korian didn’t know what to say to his daughter because he didn’t know how he felt. For so long he wished he could have learned more about his birth parents and now here was the information staring him right in the face. “I’m glad you’re both here.” Kitsune smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “I’m glad I know their names now, Parserii and Kabo.” He smiled to himself in disbelief and wrapped an arm around Shihori’s shoulders. “Those were your grandparents names.” </span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">A few hours went by and the trio went about cleaning up the place what best they could, Shihori had gone outside and collected some wildflowers which she laid on the kitchen table as a sign of happier times. She brought her hands together and prayed for her grandparents that she never got to meet and wished them happiness together in the afterlife. Kitsune saw her do this and she smiled at the sweet gesture her granddaughter had made. Now it was time to depart back home and Kitsune looked nervous, what if there wasn’t a home to get back to? What if her son and granddaughter never got to see Sorrel ever again? Korian noticed her anxious state and patted her on the back, “What’s wrong? I got us here in one piece, we’ll be fine getting back home.” Kitsune forced a smile and followed along with Shihori outside as they closed the home and gathered their belongings. “See you later, house. I’ll be back one day, I promise.” Korian said cheerfully. They all gathered together and both ladies placed their hands on Korian for the trip home. Kitsune closed her eyes tight as she didn’t know what to expect on the other side, with that they quickly disappeared in a flash and she knew there was no going back now.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"><span style="color: rgb(204, 204, 204)">They soon reappeared in their front yard, Kitsune’s eyes slowly peeling themselves open as Shihori threw her arms up in excitement and exclaimed, “What a ride!” Kitsune couldn’t believe her eyes that everything was right where it should be. Could they have been victorious after all? Then what about the other universes? She followed Korian and Shihori to the front door of the house which swung open to reveal Sorrel sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of tea. She leaned her head into her propped-up fist and smiled as her daughter walked over to cling onto her and give her a kiss on the cheek. “Hi, Mom. We missed you. How was Auntie Hopp feeling?” Sorrel went right along with it without missing a beat. She pulled out a chair for her daughter to join her at the table and share some tea. “She’s doing much better now, thanks. How was your trip?” Shihori began to explain what happened on their journey as Korian leaned over to give his wife a hug in greeting, Kitsune saw Sorrel’s face over his shoulder and caught a very serious look when their eyes met. Kitsune knew what that meant, and the sly fox knew that she would have her own story to tell, but that was for another time.</span></span></p></blockquote><p></p>
[QUOTE="India Actual, post: 1349, member: 80"] [B][FONT=verdana][COLOR=rgb(204, 204, 204)]Chapter 5: The Destroyer of Worlds[/COLOR][/FONT][/B] [COLOR=rgb(204, 204, 204)][FONT=verdana] Age 775, [I]Sacred World of the Kai[/I] A few months after the demons defeat at the hands of Korian and Sorrel, they decided as a family to give an olive branch to the Supreme Kai and take Roh up on his offer of training. It was during this period that an entirely new view of the world was opened to Korian’s family and they set about the task of understanding exactly how the universe worked. Shihori was sparring with her mother across the lush green landscape of this godly world, she had gotten more focused in the succeeding months of training under her father and the Supreme Kai’s tutelage. This allowed her to more finely focus her energy to grow not just as a martial artist but matured more in mind as she came to understand what her parents had to face out there. Sorrel blocked a pinpoint strike from her daughter that nearly caught her by surprise. The mother and daughter duo showed exceptional teamwork in their fighting as each combatant could read the moves of the other, perhaps this was something stemming from the bond of parent and child. Shihori pressured her mother further by transforming into a Super Saiyan, her long golden hair lifting off her shoulders and tinting her normally brown furry ears a shining gold, those fiery red eyes that Sorrel bestowed on her daughter washed over into a piercing blue. The speed and ferocity of the little girl increased the moment she showed her Saiyan lineage, Sorrel struggled to keep up with her daughter and the intense combination of strikes she dealt out against her. She was soundly rocked back by a sharp blow to the stomach which caused her to dart through the air like a projectile, she managed to release her own Ki to put a stop to her unchecked momentum. A jagged white aura of energy surrounding her body as she presented her hands in front of her body in preparation to fire the Fox energy wave. Shihori realized quickly what her mother was up to and mirrored her movements in anticipation of the incoming attack, her golden aura flaring up around her body as she charged the attack and let it fly at the same time her mother unleashed her own energy wave. The two blue beams colliding head long into one another, this began to rock the ground and sent gusts of wind in a backlash effect at each attacker. Both pairs of rabbit ears fluttered in the wild breeze caused by the impact of their attacks, but Shihori was holding back and she let her mother know it by crying out “HAAAA!” The rush of energy shot forth which overwhelmed Sorrel’s attack completely, she just barely was able to break off her own attack in time to dodge her daughter’s incoming fire, she felt the searing energy singe the fur on her face as it streamed past in a blinding flash. Both ladies were out of breath after the clash and Sorrel lowered herself down to the ground with a smirk to the little hybrid bunny. “Good job, Shihori. You had me bested on that one.” The little girl reciprocated her mother’s gesture and came down for a touchdown, as her feet met the ground she powered down and her golden hair fell softly back to its normal shade of dark brown she shared with her father. “Thanks, Mama. I’ve been practicing with grandma.” Sorrel put her arm around her daughter and gestured over to one of the floating grass islands some distance away. “Come on, let’s go see what your father is up to.” Not far away, Korian sat cross legged in a meditative pose, the tips of his fingers resting against one another with his head bowed slightly and eyes closed. Roh was standing directly in front of him with his hands clasped behind his back. “Focus yourself and reach out into the expanse, you must know what you seek if you aim to reach it.” The Supreme Kai was attempting to teach Korian how to reach out and sense people, places, and things across great distances like the Kai were able to manage, but Korian had been having difficulties calming his mind. It seemed to stem from his training under Kitsune where his mind would always be working to the next move in combat. The sly martial arts master had created a thinker, but now it seemed to work to his detriment. Korian groaned and opened his eyes to look straight at Roh, he slapped his hands against his legs in frustration. “It’s no use! I can’t quiet my thoughts long enough to get where I need to be.” Roh furrowed his brow and shot him a look of contempt. “Tch. Not with that attitude you won’t, you stubborn Saiyan. How do you expect to be able to learn the Kai Kai technique if you can’t even sense who or what you need to reach?” Shihori and Sorrel joined them on the platform which drew the pair’s attention. “How is your training coming along, ladies?” Roh inquired with interest as the two seemed to be much more focused and adept in his opinion than the block headed Saiyan. Shihori gave the Kai an approving thumbs up which accompanied a self-satisfactory smile. Sorrel turned her attention to the frustrated Korian and ruffled his spikey hair playfully. “What’s got you tied in knots?” Korian shrugged in response and gave his wife a sigh. “He expects me to be able to sense people and things I’ve never seen before, which is impossible. You don’t know, what you don’t know, Kitsune would always say, stop trying to account for things you can’t control.” He hung his head in his hands and sighed again. “Maybe you’re coming at this from the wrong angle? Maybe you should try a place you’ve been to, a person you’ve met before, try familiarity before branching out into the unknown.” This suggestion seemed to grab his attention as well as Roh’s who was astonished that this former street urchin could be so insightful. “I’ll give it a shot.” Shihori came over and patted her father on the opposite shoulder where Sorrel was standing. “You can do it, Papa, I believe in you.” Korian closed his eyes and tried to relax and reach out to the memory of a place or familiar person. His mind wandered to years ago when he and Sorrel had visited planet Metius and met Hopp for the first time. He felt some tension in his body release as he focused on where he wanted to go and who he wanted to see. Suddenly, he focused his energy in the way Roh had instructed him, he felt himself slip out of his being and he vanished in a flash along with his wife and daughter who each had a hand on him at the time. This surprised Roh, who immediately rushed over to his crystal ball to search for the trio somewhere in the known universe. Korian, Sorrel, and Shihori appeared in unfamiliar surroundings and they seemed to be standing in a steamy room with the sound of water running. This was strange, Korian thought to himself, but the sound of water suddenly stopped. Once the moisture in the air cleared Korian’s eyes grew wide in disbelief, he felt a sudden rush of blood to his head which caused him to blush profusely. They had managed to reach Hopp as he intended, but it seems they intruded on her when she was taking a shower, she stood with a look of utter horror on her face as Shihori began to casually wave at the purple feline. “Hi, Auntie Hopp.” The purple cat began to scream as she desperately tried to cover her indecent exposure with arms. Sorrel looked about frantically, and she quickly covered Shihori’s eyes. She then turned her attention to Korian who was still staring and starting to get a nosebleed. “Stop staring ya jerk!!!” Sorrel clobbered Korian over the head with her fist which caused him to snap out of it and begin to apologize to his still screaming host. Sorrel managed to drag her husband and her blind folded daughter out of the bathroom and Hopp’s house so they could give her friend some time to gather herself together. Once cooler heads prevailed and Korian apologized profusely some more, the four sat down to a nice chat, yet strangely Korian and Hopp never looked directly at one another the entire time. “Huh? So, they came back again, and you defeated them, but Towa got away?” Sorrel nodded solemnly since it was her fault that she didn’t put a stop to Towa when she had the chance. “Yeah, but Mira’s dead for sure this time. I watched Korian explode him into teeny, tiny, pieces myself.” Hopp just chuckled and smiled at Shihori who was sipping on a glass of milk that she had given her. “You’ve sprouted up like a weed, kiddo. What are your parents feeding you?” Korian just chuckled as an ice breaker, he still felt embarrassed for barging in on Hopp unannounced. “Well, we don’t want to impose on you any longer. Next time, we’ll call before we drop by.” Hopp just blinked as she tried to wrap her mind around exactly what he meant by that and shook off the dumb remark. Sorrel shrugged as she helped gather up Shihori before they all proceeded to the door to head outside. Once they were both gathered up around him, Shihori and Sorrel waved good-bye for now with Korian focusing on returning to Roh’s planet in one piece. They vanished in a flash and returned to their exact spot of departure. Upon their arrival, the Supreme Kai was there to greet them, but something was off about him, he seemed to have gotten a nosebleed while he was peering into his crystal ball. Sorrel just clenched her fist in anger and exploded with rage at the fact she was surrounded by lecherous men. “Why you!!! Using your position to peep on naked ladies, are we? Come here so I can shove that crystal ball up your ass!” Roh began to back off as he was charged by a tiny, demonic rabbit who snatched up his crystal ball and began to chase him around with it while simultaneously attempting to smash it over his head. Korian and Shihori just stood by trying not to make any sudden movements which might attract Sorrel’s wrath. “heh heh heh” they both meekly chucked to themselves as her onslaught on the Kai continued. Age 780, [I]Planet Basur[/I] [ATTACH alt="Korian training.png"]117[/ATTACH] Shihori was on guard as she fought, she brushed the hair off her face with a smile as she sent her power through the roof and transformed into a Super Saiyan. Close in behind her came her father slicing the air with a sharp kick which she just barely managed to dodge. Next, she spun to intercept a punch directed at her back from her mother who had circled around and tried to spring a sneak attack from above. She clutched onto Sorrel’s forearm and whipped her aside as her attention was caught by the surging power level of her father who transformed into a Super Saiyan. She wasted no time and thrusted her gloved hand forward to fire off a full power energy wave at her now attacking father. The beam was intercepted bare handed and cast off into the sky once he raised his power further still. Shihori didn’t forget about Sorrel who was trying to act sneaky again and get the drop on her, she flew in low on the white rabbit and threw a left which was dodged by an increase in speed from her mother. Both ladies smiled to one another during their spar. Korian, well he couldn’t be happier to see how far his wife and daughter had progressed in their training. Sorrel was now at least as strong as Shihori’s Super Saiyan form and his little girl, who wasn’t so little anymore, had managed to increase her power by leaps and bounds since her training on the Sacred World of the Kais. “Alright, girls! I think that’s enough for today. Great job, you two!” He was the first to power down and break from combat but much to his surprise Sorrel and Shihori were locked in a rapid barrage of attacking and defending against one another. Korian smiled to himself as he was so proud of Shihori’s discipline, all business like her mother when she got down to it. The two ladies then separated and Shihori’s golden hair faded back to dark brown. “You sure have gotten strong, Mom. Even those hits I managed to block are sure to leave a mark.” Sorrel smirked as she followed suite with her daughter and came to a relaxed pose. “Don’t count me out yet, sweetie. Your mom is full of surprises.” Korian joined the two and threw his arms around both of their shoulders and began to squeeze them both tight against his chest. “That is until Dad gets involved then you’re both in trouble. Ha ha!” Shihori just giggled at her father’s playful antics and Sorrel groaned at the squeeze her husband put on her hat. “Sure thing, dear.” She managed to slip out of his grasp and adjusted her hat back to her liking. The three of them headed back for home as it was getting late and Korian’s stomach had alarmed them that it was dangerously close to dinner time. Shihori now twelve years old and dangerously on the cusp of her teenage years showed a confidence in how she carried herself. Her father always reminded her to think ahead when she fought and to not let anger or frustration rule the day. Of course, while she was a levelheaded young lady, this didn’t stop her snarky teen attitude from rearing its head occasionally, she was too much like her mother sometimes. Back at home, the whole family sat down to a nice hot meal which Shihori had assisted her grandmother in preparing. Shihori was very animatedly explaining today’s training session to Kitsune complete with hand gestures. “And then Dad tried to come at me like this, but I was like no way and blasted him really good!” Kitsune was amused by her antics and Korian just lightly shook his head at Shihori’s exaggerations. “So, are you still planning to travel to Universe 7 tomorrow and find your old home, Korian?” Kitsune asked trying to strike up some polite conversation with her son. The Saiyan just nodded with a mouth full of food that was quickly swallowed. “We sure are. You should come with us. I’d like for us all to experience where I came from together.” Korian had eagerly taken an interest in learning about his heritage once he had become fully aware that he wasn’t from this universe. The Supreme Kai filled in some blanks for him when they had trained together, he explained that there were twelve universes in all and that they resided in the ninth universe. He further extrapolated that Korian was from the seventh universe due to his Saiyan heritage and the fact that based on Korian’s recollections all the other Saiyans had been wiped out but himself. Korian had managed to enable the use of the Kai Kai technique but was still handicapped in the ability to use it fully without godly Ki. Since he could remember his home world in bits and pieces from when he was a small boy, he may be able to bridge the gap between their separate universes and travel to his former home. Early the next morning, Shihori and Korian were headed off to the city to pick up some supplies for their trip. They duo bid Sorrel and Kitsune farewell before they flew off into the sky to take care of their errands. Kitsune was helping Sorrel pack a few bags when there was a knock at the front door of their home,” Be right there!” Sorrel called out as she made her way to the door, once she opened the door, she was rather shocked by the appearance of some familiar faces that she had not expect to see. Bergamo and his two brothers were on her doorstep but they were flanked by an unusual looking man she had never seen before, he was tall with light blue skin and white hair that hung parted on either side of his face, he was also clutching a staff with a green orb encircled by a blue ring. “Bergamo?! What brings you here?” The tall gray wolf looked down at the short white rabbit with a stoic expression on his face and as a matter of fact neither of his brothers were looking pleased to be here either. “Hello, Sorrel. May we come in? We have something we need to discuss.” Sorrel stepped aside to allow them into her home which surprised Kitsune who had stopped packing and stood to watch these strangers enter her family’s home. Bergamo nodded to the fox in greeting as everyone came inside the house followed by Sorrel, she offered everyone a seat at her table which the three wolf brothers accepted, but the other one just gave her a smile. “I’m fine, thank you for your hospitality.” Sorrel went about offering everyone some tea as she poured out a few cups and sat down with one herself. “So, you said you wanted to talk?” Bergamo just looked down into the steaming cup of tea that she had offered to him before he looked back up and began to explain his presence. “We would like to recruit you for a tournament that is being held today and I hope you’ll agree to participate because frankly, the fate of the entire universe depends on it.” This shocked both Kitsune and Sorrel into wide eyed expressions as the entire situation was explained in detail to them about the Tournament of Power being held between universes in presence of the King of All and the fate of those who failed to claim victory. Sorrel was unnerved to put it lightly and her leg bounced nervous as she considered the possibilities of what might befall them. “So, you need my help to win this tournament against eight other universes? That’s a tall order.” Her eyes switched their attention over to the blue skinned man who was examining her family pictures in the living room. “I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name. Who might you be?” He set down a framed photo of Korian, Shihori as a toddler, and herself that was taken more than a decade prior. “How very rude of me. I am Mojito, attendant to Lord Sidra, the God of Destruction of our universe.” Sorrel’s heart felt like it climbed into her throat and her expression showed it as he introduced himself title and all. “Oh, is that so? Pleased to meet you.” Bergamo and his brothers stared nervously at Sorrel seemingly all at once awaiting her answer. “What about that man you were involved with when we fought back then? He would be a great addition to our numbers.” Sorrel couldn’t bring up Korian in front of Mojito, while Roh kept his end of the bargain to not bring him up to Sidra, she couldn’t risk how he might react once he found out how powerful her husband was and how he ended up in Universe 9 in the first place. She thought up some bull shit rather quickly and tried to look down. “Oh, my late husband and daughter passed away some years ago in an attack.” Kitsune’s ears twitched in reaction to her lies but she kept quiet. Sorrel continued the act, “His mother is the only family I have left.” She feigned wiping a tear from her eye and clutched Kitsune by the hand in a fake display of consolation. Bergamo and his brothers began to look down and offered their condolences. Mojito on the other hand just remained cold and unreadable until the tense moment broke, “Is that so? How very dreadful. My sincerest condolences for your loss.” Sorrel nodded in thanks and returned her attention back to Bergamo. “I’ll join your cause. I’ll do whatever it takes to protect our home.” Bergamo stood up alongside his brothers and smiled very appreciatively for her acceptance. “Excellent, we do need to hurry since we’re short a few fighters.” Mojito interjected “Yes, if you would kindly accompany us now so we may begin our preparations for the tournament. Time is short.” This caught Sorrel by surprise, and she bit down on her lower lip very anxiously, but she just nodded to Mojito. “If I may have a moment to say goodbye to my mother in law. This may be the last time we see each other after all.” Mojito nodded in agreeance to her request and began to usher the Trio de Danger outside the house for their departure, before leaving though he did turn back and give a smirk before he exited the house. Sorrel stood up and pulled Kitsune into a tight hug which was one of the only truthful things she had done in the last couple of minutes. She also whispered into her ear. “Take them and go, lie to them, do whatever it takes because we both know what Sidra might do if he ever finds out about Korian.” Kitsune was overcome with emotion by her request, it was a strange mix of confusion and sadness as tears welled up in her eyes. She looked down to her daughter in law who also had tears streaming uncontrollably down her face. “I love you, Sorrel, you just remember that your family needs you and you get back to us. You hear me?” The tiny white rabbit wiped her face and tried to smile bravely as she gave an understanding nod. As they parted ways and Sorrel opened the front door to depart, giving her home and Kitsune one last look before leaving with the others. Not long after, Korian and Shihori had returned home from their errands with some bags of food and such in tow. Shihori saw Kitsune waiting under the tree in the front yard and ran to her grandmother with a big smile. “Hi, grandma! Ready to go? I’m so excited!” Kitsune forced a smile and tried her hardest to mask the overwhelming sadness of lying to her granddaughter. “Of course, my little honey bunny.” Shihori ran to the house and started to call out for her mother, but Kitsune called after her to stop. “Wait, Shihori. Your mother….” she hesitated as she spoke, but soon found the words. “Your mother isn’t coming with us this time.” Both Korian and Shihori looked confused by her words, but she tried to her best to come up with something on the fly. “The Supreme Kai stopped by and requested that she go visit her friend Hopp who apparently isn’t feeling well. You know your mother always worrying about everyone but herself.” Korian’s brow furrowed and Shihori looked equally confused by her utter bull shit explanation. “But she insisted that we head on out and once all is well; she can have the Supreme Kai take her to us. She doesn’t want you to miss your first trip to another universe after all.” Kitsune tried to sound as convincing as possible and Shihori’s expression softened. “Okay, grandma. Mom sure is thoughtful after all.” Korian pondered her explanation for a moment. “Well, why don’t we just wait for her to get back here so we can all go together?” Kitsune elbowed him sharply in the ribs. “What?! And disappoint Shihori? You know how furious that would make Sorrel.” Korian’s expression shifted to one of realization that this could get him in trouble with his wife and he tried to laugh it off like he was kidding. “Oh, I would never. Who me?! Nah. You’re right.” Shihori chuckled at her father who was being a goof and Kitsune breathed a sigh of relief. The three of them gathered everything together with the ladies each carrying a backpack and Korian strapped down with a few bags and carrying a large duffel in his free hand. “Okay, you two, hang on tight and keep your fingers crossed!” Korian began to focus on thoughts of his childhood and got visions of a wind-swept grassland with a small domed shaped house dotting the landscape. He homed in on this feeling as reached out for it and suddenly the trio vanished into thin air. And so, the Tournament of Power had begun, and a sinister fate quickly befell Universe 9. Universe 7, [I]Planetoid Pas[/I] In a flash Korian and his passengers appeared onto a windy plain, the ladies staring in awe of the foreign land they now stood on. As for Korian, a sense of familiarity washed over him as he spotted the dome shaped house off in the distance. “We made it. I’m home.” A quick flight over to the house showed that it had seen better days, but mostly remained intact. Korian pushed open the front door and was met with a rush of cold dread on what he might find inside. Choppy memories flashed before his eyes like a dream, he saw a woman sitting at work bench in the corner and a man who he bore a resemblance sitting at the dusty table near the kitchen. He proceeded further inside and stared around in awe at the remains of what was once his early childhood home. Shihori and Kitsune each fanned out to inspect the layout of the house. Korian stopped at the work bench over in the corner of the house, near-by there appeared to be an attached garage that now stood empty. On the table there were still dusty tools left in their place for decades and a computer with a monitor. He pressed some buttons and it surprisingly sprang to life with a hum of energy. On the monitor appeared a small display with some functions labeled one of which caught his eye called ‘LOG’, so he tapped a few keys to highlight the ‘LOG’ and hit the return key. Suddenly, a woman with long dark brown hair and eyes appeared on the screen and began to speak. “I’ve successfully reconfigured the beacon on the captured ship to send the proper frequency if Kabo were to be detected in mid-flight. Hopefully, I can access the star charts on its mainframe, so we know exactly where Freeza’s forces are based.” The woman stopped as a child’s voice called out from across the room. “Mama! Papa is almost home, time to eat!” The woman smiled and reached out to pick up the small child which shocked Korian to the core as he was staring into his younger face sitting on the woman’s lap. The door behind the woman opened and a tall, muscular man appeared in the middle of the room. “Yo! Parserii, Korian, I’m home!” His younger self excitedly hopped down off her lap and ran over to the man who scooped him up and placed him on his shoulders. The woman smiled at the scene and leaned in to switch off the monitor and the screen went blank. Korian sank down in the chair near the work bench in disbelief. Kitsune had placed a hand on his shoulder and Shihori was at his side looking concerned for him. “Papa, are you okay?” Korian didn’t know what to say to his daughter because he didn’t know how he felt. For so long he wished he could have learned more about his birth parents and now here was the information staring him right in the face. “I’m glad you’re both here.” Kitsune smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “I’m glad I know their names now, Parserii and Kabo.” He smiled to himself in disbelief and wrapped an arm around Shihori’s shoulders. “Those were your grandparents names.” A few hours went by and the trio went about cleaning up the place what best they could, Shihori had gone outside and collected some wildflowers which she laid on the kitchen table as a sign of happier times. She brought her hands together and prayed for her grandparents that she never got to meet and wished them happiness together in the afterlife. Kitsune saw her do this and she smiled at the sweet gesture her granddaughter had made. Now it was time to depart back home and Kitsune looked nervous, what if there wasn’t a home to get back to? What if her son and granddaughter never got to see Sorrel ever again? Korian noticed her anxious state and patted her on the back, “What’s wrong? I got us here in one piece, we’ll be fine getting back home.” Kitsune forced a smile and followed along with Shihori outside as they closed the home and gathered their belongings. “See you later, house. I’ll be back one day, I promise.” Korian said cheerfully. They all gathered together and both ladies placed their hands on Korian for the trip home. Kitsune closed her eyes tight as she didn’t know what to expect on the other side, with that they quickly disappeared in a flash and she knew there was no going back now. [/FONT][/COLOR] [FONT=verdana][COLOR=rgb(204, 204, 204)]They soon reappeared in their front yard, Kitsune’s eyes slowly peeling themselves open as Shihori threw her arms up in excitement and exclaimed, “What a ride!” Kitsune couldn’t believe her eyes that everything was right where it should be. Could they have been victorious after all? Then what about the other universes? She followed Korian and Shihori to the front door of the house which swung open to reveal Sorrel sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of tea. She leaned her head into her propped-up fist and smiled as her daughter walked over to cling onto her and give her a kiss on the cheek. “Hi, Mom. We missed you. How was Auntie Hopp feeling?” Sorrel went right along with it without missing a beat. She pulled out a chair for her daughter to join her at the table and share some tea. “She’s doing much better now, thanks. How was your trip?” Shihori began to explain what happened on their journey as Korian leaned over to give his wife a hug in greeting, Kitsune saw Sorrel’s face over his shoulder and caught a very serious look when their eyes met. Kitsune knew what that meant, and the sly fox knew that she would have her own story to tell, but that was for another time.[/COLOR][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
