Can I Be Another Number Other Than Zero?

by Mesukage

The Story Of Zero growing up and realizing that life has it's ups and it's downs.

Note: Finished reading a Child Called It and The Lost Boy T.T, so those are my inspirations towards this story. I was wondering if I should make it a KanamexZero or a ZeroxKaname o.o any suggestions?

My name is Zero Kiryuu. Recently I don't even think I have a last name. My mother and father don't treat me like I'm part of the family at all; and my brother and sisters are very protective me outside the house so I can't make any friends. Today I should be eight years old I think. I wouldn't ever know because we never celebrate my birthday and never will. That's exactly what my mother told me and I'll always believe her since she's always right.

Ichiru is not only my twin brother but my best friend. Even though he's younger than me I think he's more mature. Ichiru can barley go outside and play because of his sicknesses; and since I'm never allowed to go outside except for school we always play together. We have to play in secret though because father thinks I will taint Ichiru and that it's my fault Ichiru is always sick.

My sisters Seiren, Maria, and Shizuka aren't as kind to me though. Seiren is like mothers' assistant whenever I get into trouble which is almost every day. Maria on the other hand is fathers' assistant and always tells on me when she see's me and Ichiru playing together. Shizuka is the oldest out of all of us and most certainly the worst of my siblings. Shizuka beats me up and tells me scary story at nighttime. Sometimes when I sleep I pee myself, whenever I told mother about it she would tell me to sleep in my ruined clothes until nighttime and then when I woke up I would have to clean everything myself. She wouldn't care if I had no time for breakfast or if I got in trouble at school for being late.

School is terrible but it sure is better than home. I'm in the first grade and the teachers always expect you to be a slow learner. Unfortunately I'm not, my teacher tried to recommend to my mother and father than I should be moved up at least a grade. They both refused and beat me when I got home then commanded me that I shouldn't cheat off of other students and go back to my slow turtle pace. This was the hardest thing to do for me but I accomplished the task, with a price of course. I ended up staying back for two years.

One day I hope I can be respected by my family and actually become a Kiryuu. Only on that day will I actually feel like a person.
