"Yukio! Come look you have to see this!" Thirteen year old Rin said, kneeling on the ground, pointing to a fuzzy caterpillar that perched lazily on a blade of grass. Rin smiled with missing teeth.

Yukio just rolled his eyes then began to tug on their dad shiro's dark clothing, "Dad, why do you bring us both to the park, I never have any fun here." He said while staring at his feet and kicking up the dirt around him.

Shiro glanced down at the younger twin, "Look how happy he is Yukio, I know that being here is hard on you but try to maintain a positive outlook, for Rin's sake."

"Yukio, Yukio! You're going to be late, wake up!" Rin shook his younger brother hard, trying to free him from his dream.

"Wha-what time is it?" Yukio rose from his pillow blinking and rubbing his eyes.

"Time for school mole face! Let's go!" Rin said throwing clothes at his brother.

"No way, WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME SOONER!" Yukio scolded as he reached for his glasses on the bed side table. He then unbuttoned his night shirt and slipped his arms free of its warm embrace. "It's freezing in here…" Yukio shivered.

"Yeah well, there isn't much body heat in this building considering we're the only two here." Rin said with a slight hint of annoyance.

"It's for your own good Rin, what if someone saw your tail, or even worse your flames? So until you can learn to control yourself, the Vatican would prefer you were cut off from the others."

"Vatican-Shmatican, what do they know anyway?" Rin grabbed his back pack and slung it over one shoulder.

Yukio finished getting ready quickly and near silently, he put a finger to his glasses and pushed them closer to his eyes. "Let's go, we need to hurry we're already late."

Sorry, the first chapter is going to be the shortest, it's more of an experiment just to see if it's going to get enough views to be continued. Hope you enjoyed it, leave a review if you would like more!
