Chapter 1: The beginning

Jealousy, friendship or love?

Humph, who would of thought it ne? The Crest of Friendship. More like the Crest of jealousy, the way I have been carrying on. Let me back up a little a bit. It all started at summer camp well maybe before that…

******************Flash back***********************

"Matt I'm afraid I have bad news for you. Your father and I are going to have a divorce… I know this will be upsetting for you but we have…" my mother Nancy was interrupted by me wailing.

"No. N-no y-you c-cant do that!" I managed to bellow.

Then my mother started to explain, "Me and your father have our differences and that is what we have decided. We have also decided for your brother to live with me and you to live with your father."

"You can't do that either!" I was full of anger. I hated my mum for this it was all her fault.

"Matt please accept it" she said her azure eyes filled with tears. We hugged each other goodbye. She went into the car and I waved mum and Takeru off. My eyes full of tears too.

**************End of flash back*********************

After that day, I hardly ever them much anymore. My mum kept well away from me and she never let me see my own brother. I really do despise her she has caused me so mush pain and loneliness that I so wished would go away and I could be happy again.

I was always alone. My dad Malcolm worked all day from early hours and did not finish to late at night. What great parents I have! They are both as bad as each other. Typical isn't it. I was always alone. I didn't have any friends and got the crest of bloody friendship. How did that happen?

At least I have learnt something through my horrid life. I have learnt to trust no one. The only person I can rely on is myself. Nobody else just me.

_________Beginning of the summer holidays_________

It is the begging of summer. Oh how nice I can cry in self-pity on my own again in my hellhole that I call 'home'? However something changed this summer as my father confronted me one day and made it clear that I was off to a summer camp! You know a place for little sad kids to run around and scream their heads off. Playing with all their new friends, but you now what I don't want any friends.

They just give you grief and soon tear you apart in the end. Friends, HA that word makes me laugh. Nobody knows what that word really means. You cannot trust anybody not even a mother or father, and friendship is about trust and I don't have any of that! So what is their any use of me going to summer camp? You gotta be joking! He can't make me go there. He made up such a stupid excuse too!

********************Flash back*********************

I was in my room doing homework, sitting there biting the end of my pencil trying to work out a mathematical formula for some equation. It was about twelve-ish until my slowly opened the creaky door and peered his head through to see if I were awake.

I suspect he just got back from work or something. He walked in a sat on the edge of my bed and I knew he was going to have a go at one of those 'dad to son' conversations!

I put the tedious green math's book on the floor and crossed my arms to see what he wanted.

"Matt we need to talk" he said sternly.

"Yeah whatever" I muttered. Talk? Yeah right that'll be the day! The last time we had a 'talk' it was more like a fight! Anyway why would he waste his time I knew he hated me.

"I'm being serious!" he shouted angrily at me in the face.

"Well you never made an effort to do that in the last six years *DAD*!" I shouted back putting more of a sarcastic tone in the last word that I said. I was so angry with him. Why should I talk to him? He hadn't made the effort.

"Don't you talk to me like that! You have no right! I am your father for crying out loud!" he shouted at me again. My father raised his fists into the air. Talk to him like what?

I snorted "No right! You're talking the fucking same way!" I yelled.

"How dare you?" he said in shock. He walked over to me with all the anger in the world in his eyes. That was it here comes the beating. I would always get a punch or two if I answered back to him or even tried to prove him wrong. My guess was, was that the reason he punched me because he knew I was right.

My so-called father punched me in the cheekbone, causing me to jolt back and hit my head against the headboard.

"Aaaarrraaahhh!" I whimpered as I rubbed my sore jaw.

"Now you listen to me boy! All I wanted to say was is that you were going to summer camp!" he yelled as he began to walk away towards the door. What? No way.

I suddenly became a bit too big head and thought it was clever to remark some sly comment. "Yeah! To get me out of the way even though you don't hardly ever see me to begin with!" I retorted.

"NO! I thought you could make friends that is all," my dad said in a stern voice again. Friends you make me laugh. What would I want with friends?

"Ha. Yeah right." I sarcastically said, with a smirk spreading across my face.

"I've had enough of this!" My father muttered as he slammed the door behind him.

*****************End of flash back******************

In the end after a couple of yells and a couple of kicks, and a couple of punches, my dad got me to this shit hole. You know how? I finally gave up and surrendered to him, as I couldn't stand getting hurt again. Now I have a black eye cuts and is bruised all over my body. It ached were ever I walked and I could barely sit down without whimpering under my breath in pain.

In fact when I got to this stupid place, it wasn't all that bad as I had a little surprise when I got there. Takeru was there.

I was so happy to see my brother. I hadn't seen him for a very long time. I hugged him and then he greeted me to his new mates. Thank god, he didn't notice my bruises. I didn't want him to get worried. He would then start asking questions and if I didn't tell him he would guilt trip me into it by saying he was really worried.

I guess this place beat being at home. You were out in the fresh air you could do fuck all and just laze around doing nothing! Like doing the dinner for my dad! Washing up after my dad! Being in the same house with dad!

So, as I didn't have anything else to do I hanged around with my little bro'. I was happy enough just to watch Takeru play with his friends in the nice hot sunshine. So I just lay back enjoyed the sun and the laughing my brother and his friends made as they played tug oh war.

There I was lying on the grass minding my business, until I got this tap on my shoulder. I turned my head slightly to see who it was, to see this strange boy with massive, messy brown hair. He wore a blue T-shirt with stars on the sleeves and brown combat shorts. He looked a little weird as he has goggles on his head. He smiled at me and I looked at him blankly thinking nothing of him. I guess I'll just have to tell him how to go away somehow without him running off crying like all the other losers in this joint!

********************Flash back*********************

"Hiya, my name is Taichi Kamiya, but you can call me Tai" he said happily greeting me with a goofy smiling from ear to ear. I did wish he would go away and leave me alone. I am not cut out to be in this situation right now.

"Hi" I grumbled. Not really interested into making a friend.

"What is your name?" he asked as he sat beside me.

"Matt" I stated up looking up at him. He leant over me and I could see his eyes looked worried as he looked at my black eye and the rest of my wounds. Next thing I knew he was staring at my arms. I wouldn't be surprised they weren't that hard to 'not' notice.

"How did you get all those bruises? They are pretty bad" he questioned with a worried expression, looking skeptical at the same time.

"It's none of your business!" I spat at him. Who does he think he is? Butting into other peoples lives, for goodness sake. I decided to make up some lame excuse to make myself look big. "If you really wanna know I was in a fight!" I flashed him a dirty look and then looked at the clouds.

Whatever I said made him scared or something. "Maybe I should go," said Taichi. He got up and left. As he made up a lame excuse likes me and scooted off like a fire spark.

***************End of flash back********************

Not shortly after my encounter with Taichi the bright sun hid behind a cloud. I didn't think anything of it and closed my eyes. I strong gust of wind hit me. I hugged myself trying to keep myself warm. That was kind of unusual, for most of the day there was not one single light breeze.

My hair tickled my face as it blew about in the wind. I reopened my eyes not expecting to see what I saw. The sky was now a dark blue as if it was midnight. Strange... Then from nowhere a light beam hit me it blinded my eyes. I sat up shielding my eyes from the brightness. What the hell was going on? That was my last thought, until my mind slipped into unconsciousness.
