    The wedding
    "Masuke get down here!"Mrs.Tonuku yelled."I'm coming!"Masuke yelled back.She wasn't very happy because it was a planned wedding.Masuke walked down the stairs to her mother and Mrs.Tonuku waiting."Dear please don't mess up,"said her mother,"we need this to work out.."Masuke cut her off,"..because we need the money.I know mother.I'll try to."They walked outside where everyone was turned and looking at her.She tried to smile her best and look happy but she felt terrible.She got up to Shekto and gave him a faint smile.He smiled back.Everyone sat down and was quiet.Masuke and Shekto turn to the Father."We come here today for these two young ones....."A puff of smoke surrounded Masuke.Everyone started to scream and yell but Masuke was calm.She remembered the smoke trick from when Honue did it to himself.She felt the hands she remembered grab her."Honue...?" she finally managed to get out."It's ok.I've come back for you."he said in his soft voice.With her in his hands he started running."There!There he is!Its the trader!"one of the men yelled."Try and get me!"Honue said laughing.He ran deep into the forest then stopped."I guess I own you an aplogie,"he said while putting her down.She stared at him for a second then wrapped her hands around him."I've missed you...."she said,her voice cracking."I know you have."he said putting his hands around her. "Where have you been?"she asked."Instead of telling you let me show you."She nodded then he took her hand and led her deeper into the dark forest.

    He led her to a clearing then made a sound that sounded like a bird.A group a 4 men walked out of the trees."Why did you bring her here?"one of them asked,"You could of led the towns people here."Masuke looked at each of them.The one that talked looked younger than her."She was about to marry Shekto."Honue exclaimed.The men snarled their noise.Masuke looked confused, "What's wrong with Shekto?"They turned to her."You didn't tell her yet you brought her here?"the husky man said.She turned to Honue,"Tell me what?"Honue stared at the husky man then he shook his head."She can stay with us for now,but she will sill be in danger and you know that Honue.""I know."Honue said sadly."Come on then."the man said.He started walking and Honue did too.Masuke followed them with the other 3 men behind her.They came to a few tree houses.Masuke stopped walking and looked around."Come on Masuke."Honue said grabbing her hand."Wait...."the old man behind her said.All the men stood still."What is it?"asked Masuke."Quiet!"the husky man snapped.Masuke heard leaves rustling,like people were walking around very fast.A wolf like creature stepped out from the tress."GO!GO!Get her inside!!"the older man yelled.At that moment Masuke was already inside one of the tree houses and the door locked."Hey!!"Masuke yelled.She looked out one of the small windows and she didn't believe what she was seeing..


    Surprises
    The men including Honue were at the base of the tree.The wolf thing was coming toward them."Stay away!There's nothing here for you!"the old man said in his bold,deep voice.The wolf thing howled and two more of them came out."Take care of them."said the old man sadly.With just a few seconds all three wolves were laying on the ground,not moving.Masuke screamed.The men looked up."Honue,"the young man said,"its time to tell her.She's already seen to much."Honue has right behind her when she turned around."What were those things?How are you moving so fast?Why are those...."Honue stopped her, "Just calm down Masuke.I'll explain everything."The other men came into the tree house."Where to begin..."Honue said staring at the ceiling."First i think you should tell her what we are."the older man said."Yea i should.Masuke listen carefully..."she nodded,"Ive lived here for two hundred years and its not going to be easy telling you this but I,I mean we are vampires."Masuke's eyes grew wide,"Vampires...?"she muttered."Yes"Honue exclaimed,"Please don't be afraid of us.We will never hurt you.""A..And those things??"Masuke asked shaking."I'll tell you what they are tomorrow.Right now you need to sleep."he said as he picked her up and laid her on the bed."What about you all?There's no more beds."said Masuke."Don't worry about us,We'll be ok.Just relax and go to sleep."he said as he waled over to the door.The other vampires were outside waiting for him.


    Outside
    She grabbed his hand,"Don't leave me.It's been too long since I've seen you and I have something to tell you.."He looked at her,"Tomorrow you can.""No we might never be alone again,"she said looking out the window."That's where you're wrong Masuke,we're never alone."he took her hand off of his."What?"she asked."Tomorrow.Now go to sleep."he said."Only if you don't leave me while I sleep."she said staring at his face."Fine,but let me tell the others."before she could answer he was gone.She waited a few minutes then he was back."I'm here,now go to sleep."he snapped.She didn't want to make him mad so laid her head on the pillow and went to sleep.While she was sleeping she could feel a hand rubbing her head.Morning came and she could her name being called."Masuke wake up.Masuke."the voice said again.She opened her eyes and seen the younger man standing over her. "Where's Honue?"she asked rubbing her eyes."Umm..He's out but he'll be back.By the way my name is Heto."She stood up and walked to the door."Can you please get me down from here?"she looked down then stepped back,"I hate heights."Heto laughed then walked over to her,"Hold on."She nodded then grabbed on to him.He laughed more more then with a quick second they were on the ground."You can let go now,"he chuckled.She let go of him then looked around.The dark and creepy forest looked friendly and inviting.She smiled when she seen Honue leaning on a tree."Honue!"she yelled as she started to run over to him.He laughed,"You're happy today."She smiled even more.

    "Now can I tell you?"she asked when she got up to him.He gave a quick look to the older man the said,"Yea come on."He held his hand out.She smiled then took it.He led her to a stream."So what is it?"he asked."I..I love you,"she said as she turned her head to face him."Well I love you too."he repeated back."No more than that,more than a brother."she said."Oh.well you know I do too."Masuke looked surprised,"You do!?""Yes and I've always have."he told her.She blushed."Can I ask you some questions?"she asked."Sure,I see no harm."he said."Are there anymore of your 'kind'?"she asked."Yes."She thought for a second."Can you tell me what those wolf things are?"she said."I can.They are what your kind call werewolves."She looked at him,"My kind?""Humans,I meant to say."he said quickly.He looked across the stream then turned to her,"Let's go.Now."she looked across the stream and seen Shekto staring at her."She...."she started to yell but Honue covered her mouth.She moved his hand."Why did you do that?He's my friend.""You might think that but he isn't."he replied."Yes he is,"she started walking over to Shekto.When she got to him he said,"Where've you been?I've been worried sick about you""I was with Honue."she said back.He gave a quick glance to Honue then looked back at her,"Come on your mother will be happy that you're safe and sound." Her smile faded."Go back...?""Yes come back so we can finish with our wedding that Honue messed up."he gave Honue an evil look."But....I want to stay with Honue."she said quietly."What about our wedding don't you love me?"he said.

    "No I don't.I don't even know you that well."she told him."Even if you don't love me you still have to marry me.Your mother planned it so it will be done."he said almost yelling.He grabbed her arm and started pulling her."Let go!"she screamed.Honue was beside in a second,"Let go of her Shekto.She doesn't want to go with you.""Stay out of this.This is between me and her."Shekto said still holding Masuke."Bad idea."Honue said shaking his head.He grabbed Masuke right out of Shekto's hand then was back across the stream.Shekto was alarmed."It's true!"he yelled as he ran back to the town.Honue looked at her, "Didn't I tell you?""Yes you did and I'm sorry I didn't believe you."she said looking down."We need to go back."he told her.
    "Ok but first..."she gave him a kiss then smiled.He shook his head then started walking.She followed him with her head down.They got back to the tree houses and the old man was waiting for them."What took you so long?"he asked."We had a little trouble with Shekto."he looked at Masuke."Oh,I see,"the old man said,"but Honue she's still very young."He looked to the old man,"I know.I need to talk to you,Metre."Metre looked at Masuke."what are you going to do with her while we talk?"Masuke jumped in,"I'll be fine.I have somethings I have to do any way."she started walking back toward to stream.Honue stepped in front of her."I'll be fine.Don't worry,"she walked around him.He turned to Metre then stared to him.
