BIB: Brothers In Blood

Death is the one thing that always clings close to Jaden Yuki. As he tries to balance friends, relationships, murders and more will he be able to make it out with his life in tact or spiral towards his undoing.

Chapter 1)

Jaden Yuki looks forward to each and every day, but there's always one day in particular that was especially sweeter than the rest. Today was the third Saturday of August. After, Jaden's parents died in order to make him feel better, his grandparents who he now currently resides with take him to the best park in Japan, Momiji mun pāku or Autum Moon Park, to help him cope.

It was where Jaden's parents first met each other. Jaden always went there on his parents anniversaries so all in all that park is home to many treasured memories.

As Jaden's grandparents drove farther and farther away from their large estate or mansion, slash castle like structure as most people would call it Jaden only had one thing on his mind, seeing her.

Who is she? She is a girl who like Jaden who happens to be seven years old.

The first time he met her was when he was going through a tragic event in his life.

The murder of his parents, on the same day right before his eyes, Jaden knew they were killed because of him and their race. All he could do was sulk and cry after swearing to avenge his parent's death by killing the man who had ruined his life. And yet somehow that one girl was able to lure his smile out of its long slumber.

FLASHBACK Jaden POV:

"C'mon honey, at least try to look happy so you can make friends and have new kids to play with." Grandma told me just as we were exiting the car.

"Yeah, bud where's that Jaden Yuki charm, that mega-watt smile that always seemed to outshine the sun." My grandpa asked in an encouraging way.

"It disappeared along with any chance of me seeing my parents smiling at me again I suppose." I said slightly bitter.

After a long pause I added, "I'm sorry for sounding rude, I'll try to be happy." I faked smiled.

I grabbed my favorite black newsboy cap just to hide my eyes just in case my bangs aren't able to cover it up enough since my eyes have only been a delightfully demonic shade of gold since my parents died a month ago…my eyes tend to scare people away, I guess.

I just grabbed a Calculus AP text book in case I get bored at the park.

"A text book! Jaden I told you not to study here we're supposed to be having fun." My grandma said somewhat disappointed in me.

"Fine, I won't read it." I said slightly miffed.

I went under a Sakura tree that was yet to bloom, I wonder why though since the rest of the trees were in bloom. I checked the trunk and it had The Yuki Tree carved onto it I smiled as I remembered the first time we came here.

I sat down and began watching clouds with my textbook leaning against the tree's trunk, the cool summer breeze merrily playing with my short chocolate locks (with an exception of the more orange top part of my hair).

I began to get irritated as I looked at the horizon all the clouds reminded me of cakes my mommy would make or tennis racket I'd use to play a quick match with my daddy.

I pulled out my shades so I could take a nap instead of staring hopelessly at those taunting clouds above me.

I glanced quickly at the swings and saw a girl and her brother laughing jovially, the girl saw me staring and smiled at me... and it looked pretty, the smile I mean …and umm, well the girl too. I just blushed and attempted to smile back and failed so I turned my head the other way and began to enter a dreamless sleep.

? POV:

My mama and papa took me and my brother Atticus to a really pretty park to have a picnic together before the end of the season.

Atticus and I went straight to the swings as my mommy and daddy set up our picnic table under the shade of two blossoming Sakura trees.

"Hey Lexi you want me to push you on the swings." Atticus questioned.

"No thanks Atty I'll swing by myself and maybe even higher than you." I grinned mischievously.

"Well see about that, Sissy!" Atty teased. I rolled my eyes at that dumb pet name he gave me.

We swung on the swings for longest time chatting about the future and how well become the best brother and sister dueling pair to play the game.

When my legs started getting tired, I stopped swinging and looked around.

All the trees looked beautiful with all the flowers in bloom, but one tree wasn't blossoming not a single flower. I saw a lonely looking boy staring at the sky almost in irritation he turned his head to look at the swings so I smiled at him. When he saw me smile he began to blush and smiled back at me he looked…so adorable and shy. But his bangs covered his eyes, and those bangs were covered by his hat, so I really wonder how his eyes look.

As I began wondering about him and why he looked so depressed. I didn't notice Atticus pulling at my sleeve telling me that lunch is ready.

Everything tasted marvelous we ate fried rice with seasoned pork and chicken, fried shrimp, pot stickers, and cheesecake for desert.

Hmm…I wondered if that boy would like to try some food, maybe he likes fried shrimp. After we finished eating Atticus asked if I wanted to play on the monkey bars.

"No thanks Atty." I said to him as he stared at me in shock.

"Why not, Lexi." Atticus suspiciously questioned me.

"I'm gonna try to make a new friend." I replied.

"It better not be a boy…" Atticus said sternly as he cracked his knuckles threateningly.

I just giggled as I said, "No promises Atty." I ran away with food in my hands for that mysterious boy.

When I went over to the tree, I saw a carving saying The Yuki Tree oh maybe his surname is Yuki?

I began tickling him to wake him from his nap. He sat up as if he had risen up from the dead, he was so alert, and immediately rose upwards it was kinda… actually, really scary. He hissed at me baring his teeth at me…his canines were extremely long and pointed like a vam-oh never mind those don't exist.

I didn't want him to know I was scared so I kept tickling him; low and behold, he began laughing and smiling whole-heartedly at me. I stopped tickling him as I tried to analyze his happy features instead of his threatening glower.

He stopped laughing and began blushing.

"Gomenasai…" He trailed on in an expecting manner, oh! He probably wants to know my name.

"Asuka Tenjoin, is my Japanese name and my American name is Alexis Rhodes." I informed with a friendly grin.

Jaden POV:

As I felt, someone touching me my instinct kicked in as I bore my fangs in anger ready to attack the person in question until I realized that, it was that blonde girl who was at the swing.

I apologized sincerely as she told me her name.

"Nice to meet you Alexis my name's Judai and my English name is Jaden." I responded gingerly.

She shook my hand enthusiastically.

"What's your last name Judai-kun?" Alexis asked me sweetly.

"My last name is Yuki, and you can call me Jay." I added.

"Okay Jay and you can call me Lexi." Alexis replied.

"Okeydokey Lexi." I said cheerfully.

"So this is your family's tree?"

"Yes, what about it?!" I stated dryly.

"Well I was wondering if they're here with you." Lex continued cautiously.

"Why do want to know so much about me?" I asked bitterly.

"Just 'cause I wanna be friends with you, I even brought you some food from my picnic." Lexi informed me.

"Friends with me? Why?" I pondered aloud as she handed me a plate full of food with fried shrimp on the side...hmm fried shrimp's my favorite.

"Since you look kinda depressed I thought you needed someone to talk to and I wanted to get to know you through a quick chat and a plate of food…do you not like it." Lexi asked on the brink of tears.

"Of course I like the food in fact fried shrimp is my favorite it's just that people aren't often extremely friendly to me." I told her truthfully bowing my head down sadly.

"Well maybe it's because you look really intimidating with a frowning face especially when you cover your eyes like that." Lexi openly stated.

"It's not my fault it's just that when I think about how my life has been as of late I can't help, but be sad." I informed.

"Well than tell me what happened and start eating." Alexis said sternly.

I thought about telling her and decided to leave any sort of incriminating details.

"I was only seven at the time when my parents died. We were driving one night and we drove past a homeless man begging for a ride so I asked my parents to pull over for him to be nice. We let him sit in the back with me and my dad asked him where he wanted us to drop him off at, but he just replied nowhere in particular. So obviously confused my dad pulled over the car and asked him to explain himself. However, he pulled out a knife and threatened to kill me unless both of my parents exited the car with their hands up. Both of my parents did as they were told, the man tossed me aside and I was petrified because I didn't know how exactly to use my powers since my dad was still teaching me. I could still hear what they were talking about though since I have extremely sensitive hearing. The man was trying to sexually abuse my mother otherwise, he'd make sure to kill me. My mom said that she'd do it just to protect me but my dad couldn't stand for it because he knew my mom would be scarred forever and couldn't stand to see her in pain."

"My dad went berserk and I'd never seen him get that angry or wild before with his powers. The guy got totally freaked out and when my dad was about to finish the job my mom started crying for him to stop so my dad turned around. But that was when I heard a loud BANG and I saw my dad falling down but I knew he wasn't dead until he shot him three more times and I noticed what the last three bullets he shot were made from. Then I knew I had lost my dad, my mother kissed him once more before he died then she used her powers to get to me in less than a blink of an eye. She hugged me, gave me a kiss on my forehead, and told me she loved me very much with rivers of tears in her eyes."

"My mother pulled out her phone to call the police, the man saw this and practically ripped open the car door, and pulled her out of the safety of the car he grabbed her cell phone and smashed it against the ground. My mom fought as hard as she could, which was very hard when she knew her time was almost up she told me to run away and never look back. I only did that because she told me if I loved her to do just that for before she was gone."

"I started running as far as my legs could take me until I heard another BANG, so I had to turn around, and I saw my mother die before me with a smile on her face she landed right next to my father who also had a smile on his face. I knew they had both died happily in love, but I couldn't help but think it was all my fault as I ran for my life."

As I finished my story, I saw Alexis crying, I didn't want my new friend (hopefully) to cry because of me so I started apologizing.

She glanced up at me and gave me a tight hug; I hugged her back just as tightly trying to fight back my tears.

"Oh Jay I'm so sorry about your parents death." Alexis wailed.

"I am too…" I admitted.

From a distance I heard, "Get off my sister!"
