10 Sakura In The Shadows 7

-Next Day-

Rachel looked up at the sky dazed, the nursemaid had given her a break, her mind was a mess. She wanted revenge for Ise, but in truth didn't know how to go about it just really what should she do.

Rachel gave and annoyed looked before twisting herself abruptly and hiding herself by the rocks. Jimbe and Ise's mother have been arguing for the past hour or so. Why, are they rushing here.

"Wait Jimbe, please" Ise's mother cried.

"NO" he yelled back, he was carrying something…..it was one of the twins.

Rachel grew even more confused now as she could see Jimbe raged with anger, he couldn't be. She shadow-weaved making herself invisible. As Jimbe burst through the screen door violently, he was very rough to his own son, who was crying hysterically and then..

Jimbe throw the infant into the water, his own son.

Rachels mouth dropped in disbelief as a quote replayed into her head. "Not even a Tiger would eat its own cub.

"I only need one heir" He yelled at his stunned wife. "You go after that brat and I throw the other one in there two." He said walking away. Ise's mother looked back and forth for going after Jimbe.

There where no servants around the garden was virtually empty

Mission: Leave the Sakamoto Household with the infant.

.

Rachel's heart was pound with fury. She was fortune that the baby was saved her mind drifted away as plans for leaving the household entered her mind. This time, Rachel looked down "I guess I am not going alone" she whispered.

-Night-

Moments after that Jimbe informed the household of his youngest son's death. Ise's mother no where to be seen.

Rachel had hidden the baby while preparing herself to head out. It was a risk for both her and the baby. But she needed to leave this house. She was confident in her defensive skill, but it wouldn't do much against multiple groups of people.

Rachel packed everything she needed before heading out into the night with the bundle strapped to her chest.

She looked down a few times as the baby slept softly and peacefully his breaths very low. In all her time here, Rachel never gotten the boys names. She couldn't help it when ever they where talked about or mentions it was always by 'young master'. Even Ise's mother hadn't referred to them by name.

'What should he be called' Rachel thought as she slipped through the shadows moving into and aimless direction.

-Morning-

She had been moving for a long time, it was morning by then. The little baby was awake he wasn't crying but was laughing and cooing at her. IT was time for a break when she reached a wide river the water looked.

The scene would have made a great picture or painting. Especially with the morning glow. She sat at the rock and watched the flowing river

Whine~

She heard the sound her head. It was the dog that she would feed the leftovers to.

She heard the system and sighed wondering what was going to happen next. Right now, she was homeless with an infant and now what a little dog was add to the mix.

Dog walked closer and then sniffed her and the baby. It sat down in front of her. She gazed at the river and then at her stomach.

-Afternoon-

As expected, things where easier than she thought when she used shadow-weaving. She cooked the little fish she caught in the fire. She always wondered what they tasted like, in anime's and movies they always looked somehow delicious.

Well, turns out they weren't to die for they where just okay. It was basically eating fish without seasoning. The dog sure liked it thought, she turned towards the baby and feed him some rice milk. At least he was obedient it would have been awful if he was always crying and screaming like his older twin.

The little thing touched her face after she was done feeding him. His clear brown eyes showing nothing but innocence and curiosity. She laid him against the dog who was lying down, it looked at her with sad neglected eyes.

"Akechi" Rachel said as she looked at the baby who made no response.

"Naka"

"Mako"

"Kaji"

"Hashi"

"Moto

"Shibu"

"Hineno"

"Ishii"

"Hiki"

"Taka"

"Hira"

"Teru"

"Yasu"

Rachel sighed and her hand resting on her chin.

"Kazu"

The little thing was still just staring at her making no response. He move his little hands up and down.

"Mistu"

"Chika"

"Aki"

Rachel closed her eyes.

"Kiyo"

He giggled making Rachel opened her eyes as she looked at the laughing baby. "You like that , huh? Kiyo" He suddenly stopped.

"Aki"

Still nothing

"Akiyo"

He smiled again.

"Oh, so that's it, huh, Akiyo, is it."

He started laughing as he gurgled his own saliva.
