A blue haired man stared deep into the waters of the lake. The longer he stared the more his reflection became of a young boy. He sighs as he began to slip into sweet memories
" ! Let's have a race!" A taller boy, whose hair was a bright red called to the little Seika.
The boy nodded earnestly "Sure Kyo! To where?"
"The house! Last one there is a stinky fishy!"
"OK! On your mark get set GO!"
One the word the children ran at their top speed through the forest s branches and the hills rocks all the way to their small summer home.
"My goodness! You two need to be careful!" The speaker was taller than Seika and even a little taller than Kyo. He shook his green hair as he began cleaning the younger boys scrapes cuts.
Seika sniffed the entire time. The medicine the green haired one used stung his injuries a little. He of course noticed this especially when he worked on Seikas knee "Sei-Sei does it hurt?"
"
Seika nodded" Y..y...yes Watanuki..."
"Do you want me to kiss it?"
Seika nodded
Watanuki gives a kind smile at him before gently kissing the bandage will Kyo huffed. "Kyo you want one to?"
The red head shook his head furiously "No way Wat! That's baby stuff!"
"Suit yourself Now off you two go, and don't get hurt again."
"Okay!"
Seika was in his room watching the sun set when he heard the door open.
A teen stepped into the quaint room "Seika?"
The boy snapped around "Hatake!" He ran into the older boys arms. "Your home! How is the school? Did you bring me anything?"
Hatake chuckled at the little ones enthusiasm "the school is fine and yes I might have something for you..."
"Ooh! Ooh! What is it?!"
"Now now little Ryu, this is a very important gift it must be handled with care. Do you promise to be careful?"
"Yes Hatake I'll be very careful! I'll be the most careful Ryu of all time!" Sheila proclaimed holding out his hands and being very still.
Hatake couldn't help but laugh at such a little boy pretending to be a statue with greatest concentration. Slowly he unwound his long dark blue silk scarfs from his neck and placed it on Seikas.
"Your favorite scarf?! Sheila looked up at him big blue eyes wide.
"Yes, I want you to have it. May it give you good luck"
Seika hugged him again "Thanks Hatake!"
The little boy Seika grew up again as he thought about his brothers..
He looked back at his reflection t blood, some his, some not dripped in the water making it ripple. In the ripple he saw a powerful dragon with no eyes roaring at him
" The blood of the dragon...My new path is clear,..." Seika stares into the empty sockets "mother..."he mumbled
