Nimble fingers would carefully fold colored paper. Keen eyes of green set upon the task at hand. Another sheet was taken up to wrap around the first colored paper. Setsuna's mind was not on what her idle hands were doing. They knew how to create a swan from mere practice.

The memory of signing over her luxurious water front apartment was still fresh in her mind. The couple had been so thrilled to have the complex. Her King had been with her, a hand on her waist to walk her away from the apartment that she had loved. Graceful steps moved to the taxi awaiting them. Most of their things had been shipped to the island. Once again another journey in life.

Setsuna did not know if she could have handled the move without the aid of her King. Sebastian had been such a help in her life. Honored that he spent so much time with her. Strangers they were, they shared only the bond of Mane and King. Not even mates or even real friends in the beginning. They were still not mates. Setsuna was content in following Sebastian. She was not born to be anything more than she was. He was a legend come to life. There was no honor as great as to be his first swan.

The swan was set in front of Bastian, he smiled kindly. Setsuna rested back against the seating of the airplane. Miles above the ground, she felt safe. Held in man made metal, that broke the speed of sound. Lashes lowered.

The vision of her new home coming to mind now. It unfolded by the pictures she had seen on Bastian's laptop screen. They had bought first class tickets. Pale hand would reach to take that of her Swan King. He clasped it lightly. There was another gift he had given her. That of a place that was more home away from home. Hawaii was a place that was very similar to Japan. The volcanic elements of the earth had inspired a creation. She would make a place unlike any other. Combining the food, the culture and gardens with Hawaii's natural elements.

Sushi Maki. Would be the name of the restaurant. What made it unique were the elements within. She had already drew up the plans. Sebastian was her financial benefactor. He had helped her achieve this dream. Setsuna didn't know how to pay him back, aside from paying him back with what money the restaurant would make.

On an earlier flight taken to Hawaii, to pick the location, they found a wonderful spot where Hawaii created natural onsens. That was the location Setsuna wanted. Attached to the restaurant would be a place where all the Lycanthropes could come and heal. The humans could also come and enjoy the healing properties that the volcanoes provided.

The voice over head had called out that the plane would be landing. One of the male flight attendants was making head checks, stopping by Setsuna to admire her work of the swan, flower pieces and all there other assorted origami she had created. One of the flowers, that resembled a rose was lifted as she tugged at his vest using his pin to pin it in place. Her fingers were light, brushing ever so gently at his vest. Evergreen eyes stayed on her task till it was done. He thanked her, and would remove a card from his pocket placing it in her hand. With a very soft 'call me'. That actually surprised her.

The female attendant was now speaking telling the passengers what to expect upon landing and what they should do meanwhile. Setsuna listened, did as she was told.

The walk out of the terminal was quiet. She followed Sebastian along pulling her carry on bag with her. She wore a western style clothing. A pair of shoes that held the height she was comfortable in. The skirt was long reaching to her knees in a fabric that flowed and danced as she moved. Her blouse in a very pale shade of gray, clung to her upper body in a fabric that appeared like silk, yet still wasn't. Elegant as always. Sebastian had complemented her when they had dressed and did a final check and packing before finally leaving Salem.

The next place was to gather what they had brought with them, which was not much. A larger rolling bag, in case their things were not brought over in time. Sebastian had planned everything, taken care of every expense that came their way. Setsuna handled everything  else.

They had a home waiting for them as well, a beautiful five bedroom beach side condo. Setsuna had seen the plans of the house pre-construction. By now, she knew that it would be finished. It was close to the home of the pack they were once associated with. Her Swanking possessed many talents. He can designed the house in a way that they could enjoy, and perhaps if any other swan they encountered, would live there as well.

It was nice to be greeted by Harry at the exit of the airport. A lei was placed around Sebastian's neck and soon after her own. Setsuna would remove hers and place in over Harry's head. A smile would greet him, first then her words of hello. He opened the truck to put in their things.

The drive was filled between Bastian and Harry, speaking of the on goings of the islands. Bastian always worried for the welfare of his manes. Setsuna quietly listened, making notes of the different places, of the events that had happened prier to their arrival.
