"Galatea when you are done repairing that fence Blair wants you to go into the stables and clean them up, make sure the horses have hay and water too." Kat told Galatea as she walked up behind her. Galatea had been fixing the fence that had been broken by the Gold Saint of Taurus; Aldebaran when he was sparing with the Gold Saint of Virgo Shaka a few moments before. The Saints had been using Blair's horse pasture as their training grounds, Blair was not happy about it.

Though Blair was madder about everything these days since Galatea had almost blown the girls' secret about a week before. After Blair had gotten into the room which held Galatea and Kat she had yelled like there was no tomorrow. Galatea had been grounded for three weeks, told not to use her powers at all, and was giving a heavy amount of chores to do. Some of those chores included helping out the Saints, since they were short one Saint. Shura had been in bed for almost two weeks.

Galatea was never happy about helping out the Gold Saint since they all looked at her with weird looks like she was going to go after them next and throw them through a wall.

"Yeah whatever." Galatea said louder than normal, she had been listening to her I-Pod that morning while fixing the fence.

Kat gave a small sigh which went unnoticed by Galatea, Kat turned to go back into the house. Galatea finished putting in the last nail in the fence checked to make sure the board was not going to fall out or break anytime soon. Though she doubted that if a person fell on it, it would not survive. It was the 6th time that week she had to fix the fence. Galatea stood up dusted off her pants and started to pick up her tools. She saw the shadow of someone behind her she picked up the last tool, putting it in the box before she straighten up and turned around to face the person.

"Is there something I can help you with gentlemen?" Galatea asked the two boys standing in front of her. One of the men was about the same height as Galatea he had long light brown hair that past his shoulders and blue eyes. The other man was the prettiest guy that Galatea had ever seen…though it was pretty creepy to look at him. He had blond hair that was almost sandy blond and blue eyes his pale skin stood out as the sun shown down on the three of them. There was not a single mark on his skin; Galatea looked down at his nails to see they were perfectly manicured.

Oh my gosh what the heck is this? Galatea asked herself as she stared down the two men in front of her.

"Lizard Misty and Peruses Argor isn't it." Galatea said.

"That is right." Misty said his voice was high.

"What can I help you with? I am a little busy here." Galatea said trying to sound as polite as she could. She was not in the mood to deal with any Saints today.

"Sir Death Mask needs you to do some stuff." Argor said not looking Galatea in the eyes.

"Well you will just have to tell Sir Death Mask that I am busy doing other stuff and that he will just have to wait for me." Galatea said as she grabbed her stuff and walked away her back to the two Saints. She could tell that they were looking at her as she left.

Galatea entered the nice cool barn and a small smile played across her face, this was great. She had the whole place to herself, no Saints. The horses walked up to the edge of their stalls to see who had come in. Ember neighed when she saw her rider she tossed her nose about in the air.

"Calm down I am coming." Galatea said laughing as she walked up to Ember and petted her nose, Ember butted her shoulder.

"I know girl I want them to go away too." Galatea said quietly. Galatea stood there at Ember's stall petting her horse's nose for a few minutes thinking random thoughts. Then she started to clean the stalls as Kat had told her too.

Galatea was putting some hay in Capalius's stall when the barn door opened. Galatea was not paying much attention to whoever was coming in she had her I-Pod headphones in again and was blasting music out of them. She thought it was one of her friends, Kat, or Blair.

Galatea went on doing her job when someone tapped her on the shoulder. Galatea, surprised, turned around so fast that her hair; which had been left down went into the person's face and the end of hay poker went into the person's stomach…Galatea looked down at the Gold Knight of Cancer; Death Mask.

Death Mask was holding his stomach, coughing.

"Oh I am so sorry… oh it is just you." Galatea said sounding like she didn't care that she had just hit him. Then she turned back around and went back to putting hay into Capalius's stall.

"WHAT THE HECK!" Death Mask yelled at her Galatea's eyes slid back to look at him.

"What are you talking about?" Galatea asked him as she pulled her headphones out of her ears and turned it off.

"First off you hit me with your hair then you hit me in the stomach with that," he pointed to the hay poker in her hands, "and you act like it is nothing!"

Galatea just looked down at her nails pulling the dirt out from them not even paying attention to Death Mask's ranting.

"ARE YOU EVEN LISTING TO ME GIRL?" Death Mask yelled at her.

Galatea looked up at him, "First off I have a name, it is Galatea and second what is your point?"

Death Mask glared at her growling. Galatea's eyebrows rose, "Did you just growl?"

"Do you want to die?" Death Mask asked her in a deadly voice.

Galatea sighed and rubbed her temples, she did not need this today, "You can try and kill me…but I guarantee you that you won't."

Death Mask's glare harden, "You are so asking for it…OUCH!" Galatea looked over to see that Neptune had come out from behind his mother and had bitten Death Mask on the arm.

"Why you little creature die!" Death Mask yelled moving towards the tiny horse. Death Mask stopped his attack looking in front of him… Galatea stood between the baby horse and him.

"Don't you dare touch that horse." Galatea told him in a deadly voice.

"MOVE!" Death Mask yelled.

"No." Galatea told him, hands on her hips.

The other horses had come out of their stalls, their heads sticking out. Sundance had come to stand in front of Neptune protecting her baby. Sundance's ears were flat down her teeth out waiting for Death Mask to try anything. Knight and Major were kicking up their hooves trying to get out of their stalls. Rainstorm and Ember were sifting nervously from foot to foot neighing and shorting at Death Mask their ears also flat down. Capalius was watching Death Mask with her eyes. Majesty neighed loudly throwing her head back and stamping her hooves.

"MOVE!" Death Mask yelled again.

"I said no." Galatea hissed back at him. The barn door opened again and in walked Aurora and Sorcha they quickly looked from Death Mask to Galatea then to the horses.

"What is going on here?" Aurora asked…though her voice said that she knew the whole story. She had probably heard the horses from the house.

"Nothing…Death Mask was just leaving." Galatea said through gritted teeth as she crossed arms over her chest glaring at him.

Death Mask glared at her once more before he turned and walked out of the barn pushing past Aurora and Sorcha.

The room seemed to relax some as Death Mask left. Galatea relaxed her posture as she leaned down to pick up her hay poker to get some more hay into the other stalls. The horses were still on alert, Aurora went over to Sundance and whispered quietly into her ear before doing the same to Rainstorm, Neptune, Ember, Majesty, and Capalius. She finally came to her horse and Major went quiet when he saw his mistress. Aurora pulled an apple out of her pocket and gave it to her horse who ate it happily. Then she walked back over to Neptune and Sundance and started to pet them.

"Galatea are you okay?" Sorcha asked her going over to Knight and petting his nose to calm him down. Knight's ears suddenly went back up and his head went down to butt Sorcha's shoulder, gently.

Galatea didn't answer for a few seconds, "Yeah I am okay."

Aurora looked at Galatea looking her over…she sounded nervous. Aurora stared at glance with Sorcha before looking back at Galatea, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah I am sure." Galatea said quietly as she finished putting hay in the stalls, she then leaned into Ember's stall and grabbed her water bucket filling it with water from the hose.

"What happened?" Sorcha asked her as Galatea put the water bucket back into Ember's stall, full.

"I was talking to Death Mask…well I would not call it talking. I would say more of an argument and I guess Neptune was worried about me. So when Death Mask got to close to me he bit him. Death Mask was going to hurt Neptune." Galatea said as she brought back Majesty's water bucket and put that in her stall.

"These Saints are starting to get on my nerves." Aurora muttered under her breath as she pulled another apple from her pocket and gave it to Neptune. Neptune bit out a small piece of the apple, chewed, swallowed, and then took another bite of it. Aurora chuckled watching the baby horse as his mother went back to eating hay.

"We can't do anything about it we have already pulled every trick in the book. They aren't going to leave no matter how hard we try." Sorcha sighed as she walked over to the rack that held all the saddles. She picked up Knights and walked back over to him going into his stall and putting on the saddle.

"You guys going out for a ride?" Galatea asked looking up at Sorcha.

"Yeah, you want to come with us?" Sorcha asked her.

Galatea shook her head, "I can't I have to see if Blair or Kat need me to do any more chores. Or if the Saints need me." She made a face.

"We are sorry Galatea." Aurora said she was already putting on Major's saddle.

"It is okay," Galatea sighed, "it is not your fault that I have a temper. It is not your fault that I can't control my anger…it is not your fault."

"We get it already Galatea." Sorcha and Aurora said together. Galatea laughed so did Aurora and Sorcha.

"You guys have fun on your ride I will see you later." Galatea said as she walked into Knight's stall pulling out the water bucket and going to fill it.

Aurora held back a sigh as she and Sorcha road out on their horses. They were bound for the small forest that was near their house. The Saints looked at the girls as they road by on their horses.

"I feel like an animal in a cage." Aurora told Sorcha. Sorcha nodded having the same feeling.

"I am not saying that it is Galatea's fault. It is just they seem to be watching us more closely ever since the little accident last week. If I were Galatea though I would probably do the same thing if I were her." Sorcha said.

"Me too." Aurora said as they road past some guards that were standing at post up the road. Aurora locked eyes with Aioros. She looked down at the Gold Saint and he looked back at her trying to figure out what her secret was. Aurora also noticed that Shaka was there as well talking to some of the guards. As soon as the girls passed the guards, they kicked their horses into a gallop.

Aioros and Shaka watched as the girls sped away on their horses they looked at each other it seemed like they were both thinking the same thing.

Aurora and Sorcha stopped their horses when they were deep enough in the forest and far enough away from the prying eyes of the Saints.

Aurora and Sorcha dismounted from their horses pulling off their bridals and letting them graze on the grass. Aurora looked up at the blue sky above her head and smiled as she spun around in a circle and then fell onto the grass putting her hands behind her head.

Aurora heard a giggle and leaned her head back looking at her friend, "What?"

"You seem happy even though a moment ago you wanted to rip Death Mask to pieces." Sorcha said as she sat down leaning against a tree.

"Ha, ha, ha, you're so very funny Sorcha. How can I not be happy here. No noise, no Saints, no nothing just the sounds of nature. No one to stare at me like some animal in a cage." Aurora said sighing happily. Sorcha chuckled and looked up at the sky as well, "I guess you are right."

Aurora smiled as she sat up looking around her at the circle of trees, she and Sorcha had stopped in their favorite spot in the forest. The spot that held many memories for both Sorcha and Aurora plus Blair, Kat, Naomi, Galatea, and Icey as well. The girls had named the spot the Ring of Music. They had named it that because whenever one of the girls went there they always heard the sound of music. Either coming from the wind as it blew through the trees and grass or they would hear the sound of a bird's song. Sorcha looked up behind her at the tree she was leaning against, it towered above her head. 20 of these tall trees stood in a circle around the two girls and their horses now. Still, silent, unmoving, quiet.

Sorcha saw Knight's head go up his ears up…listening, Major's head went up now his ears up and listening as well. Major neighed loudly jumping up and down.

"Aurora?" Sorcha asked looking at her friend then back to their horses.

"Someone is coming they say." Aurora's eyes were closed.

A small baby bird flew down from one of the tall trees around them and hopped over to Aurora and up into her lap the bird sat down in her hands and puffed out, feathers ruffled. Sorcha watched the baby bird as it tweeted once and then twice and then went quiet.

"She says two men. Two men from the camp outside our house. One with long blond hair the other with brown hair." Aurora told her friend.

"Shaka of Virgo and Aioros of Sagittarius. They followed us." Sorcha said looking at an opening in the bushes that surrounded and protected the trees.

Aurora opened her eyes and looked at the same spot that Sorcha did now. Out into the circle of trees came Shaka and Aioros. They looked down at the two girls sitting on the ground and then at the horses who had gone to stand near their mistresses.

"Can we help you?" Aurora asked the two of them. The bird in her hands peeped but stayed where she was. Aioros looked down at the bird and then up at Aurora.

"You have a pet bird now?" He asked her. Aurora shook her head, "No she is wild but all animals are smart. The ones around here are smarter though."

Aurora lifted up her hands and the bird took off peeping and singing its song. Aurora then turned back to look at the two men, "Is there something we can help you with? Because if not we would like you to leave."

"That was rude." Shaka said his eyes closed.

Aurora snorted, "I am rude to people who follow me and my friends."

"We were just out for a walk that is all." Aioros said.

Sorcha signing caught Aurora attention she looked over at her, "Sorcha says that you are lying through your teeth."

Aioros looked from Sorcha to Aurora his eyes were searching both girls faces as if he was looking to find something there.

"She is mute?" Shaka asked there was surprise in his voice when he said that. Sorcha looked at Shaka her eyes looking him up and down.

Then she glanced at Aurora, "He is surprised. Shaka is wondering how I became mute."

"Do you want me to tell him?" Aurora asked though she already knew the answer.

"No, he doesn't need to know. Besides I don't tell people my past who follow me and want to use my clothe for a war. Plus I don't like when people are trying to pry into my life period." Sorcha crossed her arms over her chest looking way from Shaka.

"Yes she is mute. She also says that she wants the two of you to leave us alone." Aurora told Shaka and Aioros. This comment however did not stop them.

"How did she become mute?" Shaka asked quietly he opened his eyes. The beautiful blue eyes looked at Sorcha.

"She doesn't want to tell you. Why do you leave us alone already and mind your own business, nosy." Aurora told Shaka.

"How do you know that?" Aioros asked.

"I know because she is my best friend. I can read her like a open book." Aurora said her voice was getting louder.

"Aurora calm down otherwise you're going to turn into a bear or something in front of them and then we will be in deep shit." Sorcha said.

Aurora took a deep breath and glared at Shaka and Aioros, "Now can you please leave us alone. We are trying to relax here."

"You are rude didn't your mother ever teach you manors." Aioros said glaring down at her. Aurora glared back at him that one hurt. Aurora turned her head looking at the ground in front of her she didn't say anything more to either Aioros or Shaka.

It was quiet in the clearing; Sorcha had her eyes on Aurora who was still looking at the ground, Sorcha could tell that Aurora was deciding either to punch Aioros in the face and get in trouble with Blair and Kat or start crying. Sorcha saw the small white tears start to form in her eyes.

Sorcha knew that Aurora knew cried and she knew that Aurora did not want to cry in front of the Saints. Sorcha got up and went over to her friend giving her a hug. Aurora looked up at her friend and Sorcha nodded at her. Aurora smiled reaching up with her hand to brush her tears away.

Sorcha signed to her friend, "Sorcha says to please leave us alone now. We have nothing more to talk about and there is nothing more to say."

Aioros and Shaka looked at each other and then down at the two girls before with a sigh they both left walking away back into the forest.

Aurora heaved a sigh of relief, "Thanks Sorcha you are a really life saver. I would have never forgiven myself if they saw me crying."

"What are friends for?" Sorcha smiled and Aurora smiled back at her friend.

"They were looking for answer to why Galatea was able to throw Shura through a wall. They know no ordinary human can do that. The Gold Knights know something in is wrong we have to be more careful they are going to be looking more closely at all of us from now on." Sorcha said as she stood up looking at the spot where Shaka and Aioros stood before.

Aurora nodded, "We can't let anything slip."

"Their minds are very interesting though I learned a lot…more than I should know." Sorcha looked up at the sky above her head. Dark, heavy clouds were starting to roll in over their heads a storm was coming and a big one at that.

"We better head home. Looks like it's going to rain soon plus I think there is going to be thunder and lightning." Aurora said also watching the sky above her.

"Well this is going to be interesting we are going to show the Saints our little weakness." Sorcha said with a small sigh, Aurora chuckled.


Icey made her way slowly up the stairs out of the way of the Saint that were running throughout her home. It was starting to become more of a problem for Icey…have the Saints around was not easy. The only place that Icey knew Saints didn't go a lot of the time was the only place where she could be by herself and think things through was the Library.

Icey opened the door to the library and without a second thought walked in. At first Icey noticed nothing but then she felt that the room was cold. Colder than normal at least, Icey looked up and there sitting on one of the chairs in the room was the Gold Knight of Aquarius; Camus.

Camus looked back at Icey his cold gaze showed no feeling no emotions.

"Here I thought no one came into this place." Camus said it sounded more like he was saying it to himself.

Icey didn't say anything she walked over to the place where she sat most of the time; the window seat that looked out over the forest. When she looked down she could also see the Saint's tents and the Saints themselves running around looking a little bit like tiny ants.

Camus looked up from the book he was reading to glance over at Icey who was looking out of the window at the darkening sky overhead. When Camus was around her always felt like there was something that was different about her but also something that reminded him of himself.

She was cold, distant like he was. Camus did not want to admit it but Icey was as cold as he was. She had a heart that was as cold as his but he also noticed that the ice around her heart would break when she was around the other girls that lived here. Her friends.

Icey felt Camus's stare and turned to look at him, "Did you need something Sir Camus?"

"No." Camus said going back to reading his book.

Icey smirked to herself as she went back to the window watching the Saints down below. When she sat in this window seat her mind always wandered thinking about random things. Random thoughts. This time her mind wandered to the day she lost her mother, father, and two best friends.

"Don't worry Icey you are almost out hang in there."

"Mom, Dad just stop it you can't save me."

"We aren't just going to let you go Icey we are your family we don't want to lose you."

Icey looked at her parents and friends as they worked to get her free of the net tears ran down her face. She was almost out, almost free and then they could all go home.

Icey looked up and saw an ice berg in the middle of the ship's path. "Mom, Dad look out the ice"…but it was too late her parents did not see the huge block of ice in time. As the ship knock into the ice berg her parents were crushed between the boat and the ice.

"MOMMY! DADDY!" Cold, icy tears fell down Icey's face as they as she watched her parents die.

Sharp sticks with pointy ends flew into the water Icey heard her friends scream but could not see anything the school of fish now blocked her vision. When the fish started to swim away in fright, swimming as fast as they could away from the pointy sticks Icey's vision cleared and she saw her friends floating in the water. Their eyes were open and glassy as they stared up at the water's surface two giant spears sticking out of their chests.

"Are you okay?" Icey was pulled out of her thoughts about that horrible day she turned her head sharply to look into the face of Camus.

"Are you okay?" He repeated looking at her. For some reason Icey thought that there was actual concern in his voice. And was that concern in his eyes? She must be delusional to think that Camus would be concerned about her. She was supposed to hate him wasn't she.

Icey suddenly came to her senses, she noticed that Camus's face was very, very close to hers…a little too close. Icey kept her breathing under control, "I am fine."

Camus pulled his face back looking at her face as if searching for something. This was not Camus he was trying to get secrets out of Icey and she knew that. Icey sat up fast pushing Camus away from her Camus backed up into a book shelf some of the books on the top of the book case toppled onto the floor.

"I am fine. I don't need you or your help. Just leave me and my friends alone because you aren't getting answer out of me." Icey told him in a cold voice as she looked up at him with her equally cold glare.

Camus looked at her eye brows raised, "Oh so you guys are hiding something then."

"No we are not." Icey said her face remained straight.

"Then why are you so afraid?" Camus asked her in a cold voice.

"I am not afraid of you or any of your friends Gold Knight. Just leave us alone already." Icey told him as she then turned and walked out of the room slamming the door behind her.

Once back inside the bedroom that Icey shared with her friends with the door closed and locked she slid down the door onto the floor, she pulled her knees up resting her head on them.

Icey took a deep breath and thought to herself, 'I am not supposed to like him. I am not supposed to like him. Why is this happening to me now? Why am I falling in love with someone who is trying to find out my secret? I can't fall in love, I don't even want to fall in love.' Icey thought to herself.

Icey had to admit though Camus was good looking well hot was the better term for him. All of the Saints were good looking she could say that much and she was sure her friends who say that too. 'I promise myself this. I am never going to fall in love with that cold, hearted Camus. Never.'


Blair jumped a little as she heard a loud clap of thunder in the distance. She turned to look up at the ever more darkening sky above her head. Thunder and lightning were coming as well not good for her or any of the girls. Mermaids hated both thunder and lightning…they were afraid of it scared to even be outside when it was going on.

'I better get this barn check done with quickly and get in the house before it starts to rain.' Blair thought to herself as she hopped over the fence and started to make her way towards the barn. Blair did not notice the Saints practicing nearby. Seiya and Hyoga were facing each other, Hyoga threw of his famous attacks at Seiya. Seiya dodged the attack just in time. Blair happened to be walking behind Seiya at the time and the attack came at her.

Blair noticed the attack out of the corner of her eye she move to the side just in time and as she did so she slipped her head falling back and hitting against the barns wall hard.

Blair blinked stars out of her eyes trying to get her eye site back. She felt dizzy and faint, Blair slowly stood up putting her head against the wall of the barn to help her up and support her. She held the side of her head that was now pounding, continually with pain. She was also vaguely aware of people's voices calling out to her, with her eyes now closed she could not see anything. All Blair knew were that those voices' were male but she did not get anything more than that because at that moment she fainted into someone's arms.

Blair's eyes opened she looked up at the tan color of a tent, she blinked a couple of times to get all the yellow colored lights out of her eyes and sat up.

Blair's head went back down into the pillow her head stung and swam with pain, holding onto the side of her head Blair thought about what had happen.

'Oh that is right that stupid kid almost turned me into a Popsicle.' Blair tried to sit up again, slowly this time still holding her head. Some of the pain faded away but her head still hurt. Blair raised her head slowly looking around the tent. Who's tent was this? The thing was huge.

Blair pushed herself out of the bed made her way towards a table that was near the bed. The table was covered by pieces of paper, folders, files, pens, and other things. Two things caught Blair's attention right away. She pulled two folders out of the pile, the first folder read Blair's, Katharine's, Icey's, Galatea's, Naomi's, Sorcha's, and Aurora's names.

Blair opened the file and her mouth fell open. It was a profile on all the girls every single one of them. So she and Kat had been right. The Saints really were watching them and looking at the backgrounds…but did they really need to look into the girl's personal lives. Blair also was upset that the Saints had looked into hers and Kat's personal lives as well.

'But why are our profiles on this person's desk? Most of these pieces of paper are reports or information files.' Blair thought to herself. She set down the file on her and the other girls putting it back in its original spot. The second folder she had picked up read, confidential.

Blair opened the folder looking at what inside, she knew it was wrong but hey they were using her house she should know what was going on. Right.

'This is about the war itself. No way it can't be them. They can't have started this war…that is impossible, insane, totally not them.' Blair thought to herself as she looked down at the files contents with an open mouth and wide eyes.

"Why is she in your tent Dohko?" Blair looked up at the entrance to the tent she held back a scream of panic. She was in Dohko's tent. What posed him to keep her in his tent why not just bring her into her room?

'Oh right I forgot I told him to stay out of there.' Blair told herself her attention was drawn back to the two men outside the tent. It sounded like Dohko was talking with Saga of Gemini.

"What am supposed to do Saga? Leave her lying in the grass." Dohko said with a shrug of his shoulders.

"You should have brought her to her room." Saga hissed.

"She told me to stay away from her room," he laughed this whole thing was a joke to him, "pretty demanding she was when she told me to leave it alone."

"Then take her to one of the other girls." Saga said it sounded like he was losing his temper.

"They weren't around Saga if you didn't notice." Dohko said sounding more serious.

"Dohko the men are going to talk…" Saga was cut off.

"They already do talk Saga. I don't care let them talk maybe word will get around to her and by that time she might have changed her mind about me. Now if you will excuse me I have a lot of work to do." Dohko said turning on his heal and walking back into his tent.

'Yeah. Only in his dreams.' Blair told herself.

Blair looked at Dohko who was walking into the tent and panicked. He was coming back and she was still holding the open file in her hands. Blair quickly put the folder down on the messy, over crowed desk and then walked back to the bed climbing under the covers and closing her eyes, pretending to be asleep.

Dohko walked in and sat down at one of the chairs around his desk, Blair could hear him putting things away. Then after a few seconds the paper ruffling stopped and it was quiet.

Had he gone out again? Blair slowly opened her eyes and looked straight up into the face of the Libra Saint.

'So much for he went out.' Blair told herself. Dohko was sitting on the edge of the bed very close to Blair, so close in face that she could feel the heat coming off his body.

"Oh good you are awake." Dohko said he reached over to a nightstand that near the bed and pulled something down from it. It was a bowl of water and a wet rag.

"How do you feel?" Dohko asked as he helped her sit up. Blair's head was still pounding and she still felt a little dizzy. Blair grabbed the wash cloth from the bowl before he could do it himself.

"I feel fine." Blair said in a dully.

"Liar." Dohko said.

"Come again." Blair was not in the mood for this guy today. Her head hurt, she was tired, and plus she could hear the thunder again, louder this time and it was making her nervous.

"You're lying to me," Dohko gave her a look; "I am going to ask you again. Are you okay?"

Blair growled and glared at him, "No I am not okay. You happy now."

"Yes, I am happier now." Dohko gave her a handsome smile as he got up to get something.

"You know this isn't going to work." Blair told him as she put the wet cloth into the water again and pulled it out, rag it, and then put it back on her forehead.

Dohko stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her, "What do you mean?"

"I mean this," Blair said gesturing to herself lying in the bed, "you didn't have to do this. In fact I don't want you to do this."

Dohko looked at her with hurt eyes, "I was only trying to help. I wanted to make sure you were…you know okay."

Blair looked away from his hurt gaze and up towards the ceiling closing her eyes. She could not look at Dohko's face for too long it made her feel guilty.

"Dohko you have to understand…I don't like you that way." Blair said to the ceiling then she heard Dohko's footsteps and then she felt him sit down on the bed again.

Warm, calloused, very big hands reached over to pull the cold wash cloth off of Blair's forehead and then suddenly Blair was pulled up into a sitting position.

"Hey what the heck ar…" Blair stopped talking as she felt one of those hands slip under her chin and pull it up, Blair was being forced to look into Dohko's very beautiful eyes. No matter how hard Blair tried she could not look away from that blue, eyed gaze.

"I know you don't like me like that. But no matter how many times you say stay away from me I will always come back and try again. Blair I know this doesn't mean anything to you but I am going to say it now. I love you Blair." Dohko said.

Blair stared at him like he had grown another head, "Dohko…I….I mean…" Dohko put a finger on her lips and Blair went quiet he shook his head.

"You don't have to say anything right now Blair. I just wanted you to know that I love you." Dohko said smiling at her. Blair looked at him and into his blue eyes, even in his eyes were smiling at her. Blair also knew that Dohko was being serious and he wasn't lying, he really did love her.

'Crap. I am in so much trouble. What am I going to do?' Blair thought.

Dohko was still holding her face in his hands and he was super close to her, Blair turned her head away from him. Dohko chuckled, "I am sorry if I am making you uncomfortable."

'He thinks one sorry is going to make up for this whole show down. If he thinks that then he has another thing coming.' Blair told herself.

Dohko was smiling at her still holding her face between his hands when suddenly leaning closer to her then there was a loud, BOOM! Blair jumped a little as the thunder, lighting, and rain suddenly hit. Then from the house came another voice, "BLAIR!"

The Gold Saint of Aries; Mu ran into Dohko's tent he was soaking wet and drenched to the bone. Blair quickly pulled away from Dohko and looked at Mu.

"Miss. Blair the power in the house went out." Mu told her looking from Dohko who was coughing and playing with his finger to a very red Blair.

"Oh right umm…yes." Blair said getting up off the bed and pushing past Dohko before she left the tent she turned back to Dohko, "Thank you."

Blair then left the tent she stood in the rain for a few second before running towards the house to see what was wrong.
