As time passed between Isakar and Ayame his anger began to fade only to be replaced with confusion.  Refusing to yet budge from his position, his emotions not yet run through their course.<em>"you confuse me girl, you tell me one thing yet do another"</em>, he whispers.  He glances to the wooden carving, recognition becomes apparent in his eyes adding to his internal turmoil.<br/><br/>As she kisses his chin yet again, registration dawns on Isakar.  Her kiss sparks another fire in him only this time there is no anger.
