Flesh And Blood

Hi, it's me again. I'm totally stuck on 'My Sea Preincess', so I'm gonna make this, an idea that has been burning in my head for a while. I have recently discovered that my love for that adorable Chii is actually just as strong as that for Retasu, and that is saying something. Anyway, I don't own Chobits or any of its characters, though if only I "owned" Chii...starts daydreaming and drooling at the same time...oh, sorry about that. Um, anyway, Read and review for EVERY chapter, please.

1. A Sad Boys' Finding

The night was bustling with very few people on the streets that night. The boy thought 'Thank God for small favors'. The boy, who was an English foreign student, brushed a lock of his curly thick dark brown hair out of his face as he continued on his way to his home. This boys name was Jayme Frankenberger. He had lived in Tokyo, Japan for six years now, ever since he was nine years old. He was fifteen now, and he hated his life so far.

Flashback

Jayme was only three years old now, and he was living in Ireland with his parents. They lived too far out in the countryside for getting to a hospital, so his parents took him to their only man who knew anything about medical stuff. Their elderly neighbor, Mr. McGinns, an old man who preffered "Ole Irelan'" the way it used to be. The old man had looked at the little infant boy for a half hour while momentarily taking a puff from his pipe. He carried the infant as he walked into the living room with Jayme's parents. "I'm very sorry for telling ye this, Miss and Mister Frankenberger, but...your son isn't ever gonna be able to be walkin'." he said in his heavy Irish accent. His parents both went into despair. He had told them that their son had been born without any real muscles in his legs, and they didn't show any sign of growing any bones for another twenty years, so in other words, the boys' legs were literally nothing but hollow limbs.

Modern time

Jayme groaned in tiredness and pain as he pushed his wheelchair down the partially crowded sidewalks. Even with the ten billion dollar fortune of his parents, he wasn't allowed for an electric wheelchair. Then, as if his life hadn't been bad enough, two years before he moved to Tokyo, his parents both died of suicide, leaving the young boy to fend for himself. He lived here now, in his own stately built manor, with only some of his well known servants as his remaining family. Jayme grumbled as he wheeled past a young, high school aged couple makng out on a bench. He would have given anything in the world for the opportunity to walk for the first time, as well as the chance to find that special someone. Someone who wouldn't look at him like an abomination.

Jayme pushed his chair even harder as he passed a convenience store TV wall. He glanced at the screen for a split second and sighed in want, as well as disgust. All this talk everywhere in Japan about these new humanoid androids called Persocoms. Humanoid robots that could be programmed by anyone to do absolutely anything. The news had commented Persocoms capable of being able to express really, real human emotions. Everyone else elieved that part. But as for Jayme, he had seen 2001: A Space Odyssey, and he wasn't prepared to take a chance of a machine becoming self aware and leading to danger. Besides, as far as he was concerned, Persocoms could only obey their masters and talk. That was it. And yet, in a deep recess of Jayme's mind, he had a strong sense of hope that maybe there could be one, just one, Persocom out there, that really could be able to show a human beings emotions, like a human trapped inside a shell almost. But dreams were for the hopeless. This he had learned the hard way.

Jayme stopped his wheeling his chair quickly and looked at his watch. It was now nearing ten in the evening. He had to get home soon, before any street gangs would show up and kill him. He continued to roll his wheelchair down the empty street. But at the same time, many thoughts bolted through his head. He wanted that one chance to be able to walk, and he wanted to find that special someone, and he half-liked the idea of Persocoms, and at the other half, hated them. He never liked the idea of anything being used as a servant in the first place. That was why he always did whatever he could on his own.

Jayme quickly turned his chair around a corner. He could see his house just up ahead behind the gate and at the top of the hill. He was almost there. He began to push his chair even faster than he normally did. He had his eyes glued to the sight in front of him, but one split second of glancing to his right, made him stop his chair. "What in the name of God?" he asked himself out loud as he began to ack up his chair. He stopped and looked into the shadow of a small back alley. It was now that a flickering light on a wall of one of the building flickered on and shined in the alley. Jayme couldn't believe his eyes. At the front of the alley, laying unconscious against a large pile of trash bags, was a young blonde girl no older than Jayme. She had the shiniest blonde, as well as the longest, hair Jayme had ever seen in his life. Two front locks of her hair were tightened with small pink clips, and her torso was wrapped up in bandages. "Is she hurt?" he wondered to himself as he turned his chair to face her. He looked very carefully for any cuts or bruises, but at the same time, he looked very carefully at her facial features. She looked like the most adorable and cutest as well as the prettiest thing he had ever seen. Her face was absolutely flawless.

"My God...s-she's beautiful." he whispered to himself. He then sighed. "Why do people do things like this?" he sighed. Now, this was the very first time he had noticed her ears. They weren't exactly ears at all. They looked like two small white and pink computer versions of cat ears, one on each side of her head. The top was metal and white, and the bottoms were pink and glass. Jayme raised an eyebrow at this. "A Persocom? Why would someone leave a deactivated Persocom here?" he thought mentally to himself. This had really gone against his better judgement, but Jayme carefully grabbed the blonde Persocom's arm with one hand and he held one arm underneath her back as he pulled her unconscious body onto his wheelchair with him. "Hmm. Strange. She's as light as a feather. That's not usual with Persocoms." he thought as he turned his wheelchair back around. He looked and saw a folded piece of paper in her long blonde hair. He raised an eyebrow as he took out the paper and unfolded it and read it.

To whoever finds this Persocom, please, do your best and take care of her as best you can, but do not let anybody find her. Trust no one you don't know personally once you have taken her in.

This really confused him. Jayme just sighed as he put the letter in his pocket and began to wheel himself and the deactivated Persocom to the front gate of his home. Jayme quickly punched in a bunch of numbers, causing the gate to open up automatically, and close automatically once he had wheeled inside. As he wheeled his way up to his manor, he looked momentarily at the Persocom. Somewhere deep in his mind, he just had a feeling that kept saying 'There's no way. No robot could be THIS beautiful.' Jayme quickly shook the feeling off his head as he wheeled up to his front door and pushed it open with one strong forward push. There was no answer, obviously. all the maids and butlers must have gotten to bed. The door closed behind him as Jayme began to wheel up a ramp to his bedroom. As he wheeled his way into his room, he looked at the Persocom one last time as he said something that he didn't even expect, seing as he partially hated Persocoms. "Well, I guess I'm taking her in. I might as well give her a name. And, oh, wait a minute...she already has a name. On that note. I guess I didn't notice. Hmmm...Chii. Cute name. I like that." And the door shut at last as he placed the now named Persocom onto the floor as he lifted himself onto his bed. And if anyone were around to listen through the door, they would have just barely been able to hear the crippled boy say good night to the girl called...Chii.

Well, that was the first chapter. I hope you all liked it. I personally don't know a lot about Chobits, but I honestly don't need to for this. Don't flame me at all, I beg of you. And please give me some good reviews, but absolutely no suggestions. I am now doing my very best. Thank you, and review please.
