In the night light what do you see?

That was the question I was asked when I ran away from home.

My name's Chiro, sure as the leader of five cybernetic super-powered monkeys you think and wondered: what about me?

Who was I before the monkey team?

Well, this is just a small secret I'll telling you.

I met Gibson.

When I was about seven years old.

Back then...

Chiro was at the playground slowing swaying on a swing going over the newest peice of horror. Three more kids met their unnessary deaths because the owners of the orphanage could give a (beep) about them. His heart hurting with many bruises on his wrist as he remembered every time the owners would bind his wrists with rope or steel wool stretched out. Looking at the sky he could see the fallen children's spirits shine as new stars. Feeling the brisk cold Autum wind caress his cheeks he continued to gaze at the blue yonder.

_with the young blue monkey-

Gibson was shivering. Ever since Manderan scared Gibson with a death threat he lost himself in the Zone of Wasted Years and was lucky enough to get out of that place and into Shougazoom's biggest park playground. Having the wind tease at his fur he turned to have his attention turn to a boy. Small, black hair, about six to seven years old. He walked a few feet towards the boy then stop as the boy himself turned his head to see Gibson.

"Wh- Who are you?" Gibson swallowed before replieing. "My name is Hal, Hal Gibson. But, you can just call me Gibson."

Chi-kun's POV

'Did that monkey just talk?' "Gibson. What are you doing here?" "I... I ran away.." Chiro frowned. "Why?" Gibson looked at Chiro with glossy, sad eyes. "I was threatened." Chiro knew how Hal felt and unfolded his coat. He smiled as he faced Gibson again. "Wanna warm up?" Gibson stared at Chiro with suprise as a smiled creeped up on his face. "I would like that." Gibson then jumped onto chiro's lap and Chiro closed part of his jacket over gibson but leaving enough room for for Hal to pop his head out.

"So are you gonna go home?" Gibson asked and Chiro replied, "I don't think so, i'm an orphan. I don't really want to go back to the orphanage." "Your an orphan?" "Yep. And there's nothing more (beep)ing worse then that."

"...I think I have to get back before the Alchemist is told by Manderan that I'm dead or something." Chrio chuckled. "At least your wrists aren't binded by rope whenever you do something bad." "Rope?" Chiro nodded and pulled up his sleeves. Gibson lost his breath as he saw Chiro's wrists covered and bruised in red and blue. gibson did something Antauri always did to him to calm himself. Gibson pressed his cheeks against Chiro's right wrist and rubbed gently across it. Chiro blushed at first then purred a bit due to the comfort of Gibson's fur.

"Chiro?" "Yes?" "...Can we be friends?" "Of course, forever and ever." "Thanks Chi-kun..." Gibson then fell asleep, glad of his new friend's generosity.

Now...

Gibson as asleep at Chiro's lap, with Chiro's old jacket wrapped around him. The one from years ago when Chiro was just seven. He couldn't help but look at Gibson so happy, tears weld up in his eyes.

"..We'll always be friends...Forever and ever... Amen."

END

I wanted to try something cute. So I did a small Gibiro friendship pairing.

Nova,Antauri, and Otto: AAAWWWW!
Sprx: Good to know Brainstrain and the kid DO have a good relationship.
Gibson: ...Hug?
Chiro: Hug.
G and C: (hugz)

Yay, a happy ending.
