It was a stormy night. Normally, storms don't bother me. I'm used to waiting out the storm in a box under a thin blanket, but, I'm not in my box anymore. I'm in a place that my master, a nice and yet stern old man, named One called a Dojo. I'm getting used to it. I can't tell time, but One says I've been here for four days.
A streak of lightening, a bright flash of yellow, and the loud booming of thunder, which sounded really loud, even though I was safe in my new home, the dojo. The booming noise of the thunder scared me. I didn't have a comfort toy, like Trey, or as Dos and Five call him, Cajon-boy, does, his has a frog. He thinks nobody knows he has it.
I think One already knows, but doesn't say anything. I shut my eyes. I was wishing that I had real parents, parents that comfort me. A very loud booming sound of thunder sent me running out of my room. I stopped at the first room I came to, that would be Dos' room. Big mistake.
I went to his bed and started to shake him awake, saying his name softly "Dos, Dos, wake up."
He woke up, I saw his eyes practically turn to slits, "What?" He whispered. His voice was low and audible. That scared me.
"I got scared.." I said softly. His eyes softened.
"You got scared huh?" He asked. I nodded "Come here," I walked up to him, he then put an arm around my shoulder "NOBODY GIVES A CRUD!" He then picked me up, like Trey does with his toy, by my ankle, and throws me clean across the hall, into another door.
I sniffed, smelling the air Trey's room.. I covered my nose and then walked to another room, scrambling over my own feet, smacking my head against another door. I once again had to cover my noise. Five's room..
I then rethought my options Die in a room that smells like a flower shop, or, risk wetting my pants as I listen to the storm.. I took a breath, I figured I'd better not chance going to IV's room. That guy, for some odd reason, hates me. Then I thought about going to One's room. He'd think I'm too much trouble, he'd throw me out. A flash of lightening later, I was back in my room. I'll risk wetting myself then.. I burrowed deep into the blanket. I closed my eyes, but when I felt a hand grab my shoulder, I twisted it.
"Six.." I heard One say, that man was like a father to me since I've been here, his other hand was stroking my hair "Calm down." I relaxed my grip on his wrist, I felt him sitting on the bed, but clung to his chest as I saw lightening in the distance. "It's okay, I'm here. I've got you." He wrapped me in a hug before he lay down on the bed.
I snuggled up really close to him. "Thank you.." I said softly, I was falling asleep. "It's okay to be scared." One said as I was falling asleep "Okay.." I said quietly "Night," My eyes were almost closed and my voice was getting quieter "Daddy.. I love you.." My voice was the softest it had ever been.
I slept peacefully, but was woken up by giggling. I woke up and saw Five, with her camera out, taking pictures. One woke up and his face turned from happy, to very stern "Five," He said "Camera, now.." I saw her take something from the camera, give the blasted thing to One, and then run off. "We're doomed.." I heard One say, rather casually, before he walked out of my room.
