The Crying Traveller (Part 23)

*Meanwhile, with Rai and Kalana...*

Rai: *is writing down in the journal scrolls*

Kal: *approaches him* Hey, watcha doing?

Rai: Writing down how the festival went today ^^ Even the little challenge between our hubbies

Kal: *giggled* Ah yes, tht. Quite the experience. N ur in-laws were amazing

Rai: Weren't they?

Kal: Yup. They reli r. The only person I'm surprised is not there is ur own parents

Rai: *sighed heavily* They've passed away.

Kal: Oh dear, I'm sorry. When?

Rai: They died a week after Kita and I got married. They got poisoned by something that got put in their food

Kal: *gasped* Was it murder? Assassination? Mutiny?

Rai: Assassination. But they found out who it was and executed him

Kal: W...Why did he do it?

Rai: It was a stupid motive. He had a serious grudge against my father for "Stealing" my mother

Kal: Man, jilted one-sided lover issues, doesnt bode well. Had tht once wen we were hiding out in a Mud Clan

Rai: But I'm over it now. And I'm glad to be here with my family and friends ^_^

Kal: *smiled* Tht's nice to hear. Just curious...well, nvm the fact tht u were engaged thru arranged marriage, bt if ur straight to begin with, how come u fell for Kita?

Rai: He was different. He had this aura around him that made him different from other people I've been with in my life.

Kal: *smiled* Its one of those fate, love at first sight kind of thing as well, eh?

Rai: You could say that

Kita: I miss being pregnant already

Nakh: Man, take it easy. U only just given birth a week ago

Kita: I can't help it, Nakh. I really enjoy it. Heck, wish I could be a surrogate

Nakh: Concentrate on populating ur own family first *chuckles* Ur twins n ur little girl could use a few more sibs

Kita: *got himself dressed*

Nakh: Got dressed as well

Kita: *felt a nip on his leg* ow.

Nakh: Wht's wrong, Kita?

Kita: I dunno. Something bit me. *checked his legs* Nothing. Nevermind

Nakh: *shrugs, picked him up onto his shoulder n went bk to the village*

Kiba: *was trying to clean up the bite he got earlier while cleaning* Damn it

Elly: U alright there, honey?

Kiba: Something bit my foot.

Melly; Yeah, me too, like some ant or whatever

Elly: I'd doubt its an ant if evn u a giant can feel it

Kita: We're back! *jumped down from Nakh's shoulder*

Kiba: Uncle Kita, something bit me!

Kita: You too?

Elly: Yeah, bit Melly too

Melly: *nods*

Nakh: Man, must be some bug infestation going on

Kita: *went into deep thought about it*

Kal: *came bk frm fishing with Rai a bit limping*

Nakh: U OK there, cherry?

Kal: Got a bug bite, nothing serious

Rai: He should be okay. I patched up the bite

Kita: Could be...
