I let out a yawn as I massaged my eye and leaned back in my chair.  I glanced out of the airplane's window, however, all I could see was pure darkness.

Well, we are flying at night. I wonder what time we'll be back home.

I slowly petted Opal who lay curled up in my lap. A content look on his face as he clutched a small envelope between his paws.

I wonder if I should knit him a small pouch, it must be tiring to carry things with such a small body and no pockets.

"You look so adorable when you look excited Mistress."

I jumped slightly then I looked behind me only to find Taiga there grinning at me.

"I need to put a bell on you, you're much too quiet," I sighed.

He chuckled. "Who else would it be, your brother is doing the two step tango with the stewardess. And the walking fur ball is asleep in your lap," he told me.

I felt my face heat up. "How in the world do you know that Matthew is doing that," I asked.

"Ears are a wonderful thing to have Corina. Well, while that may be a fact I'm hearing Matthew say things I never wanted to hear. Apparently, the woman likes it rough though so-"

"Please stop before I overheat," I said quickly. My face was more than likely redder than a tomato.

Taiga let out chuckle smirking as he sat next to me. "You're still wearing your eye patch," he pointed out.

I nodded slightly as I ran my fingers over the fabric. "I'm just used to it, plus while I can see out of this eye now there's still a scar. That ugly, ugly scar," I whispered.

"Let me see," he said.

I shook my head.

"You won't let me see it now even though I've seen it before?" He asked gently.

I nodded. "The eye looks strange now, I can still see out of it but it looks strange," I whispered.

He sighed. "If that's the case then you really have to let me see it," Taiga insisted.

"If my sister doesn't want to show you then leave her alone," Matthew told him.

Taiga sneered. "Why if it isn't the cheating ex-whore bastard, you finished boozing and whoring so you came to say welcome home, honey?"

"Excuse me?" Matthew hissed. "How dare you insult me like that!"

Taiga smirked. "Really? Well, how would you like to be insulted? I take request you know."

I winced clutching my eye as it began to throb as their argument escalated. "Will you two just fucking be quiet!" I snapped.

For a moment or two, my vision turned white, however as I rubbed my eyes and blinked a bit the interior of the plane came into focus. The first thing I noticed was a large, light blue, glass like wall that separated Taiga and Matthew from each other.

I glanced down at my hands to see that they glowed with the same light as the strange wall.

What is this? It feels so strange yet so comforting...
