Sorry it took a while. I had to get some ideas on this chapter. Hope you enjoy though!


Chapter 2: A Sudden Change

By the next morning, Yakuso felt a little better; the fight was in the past, his brother was most likely calm now, and he had the BEST sleep. Ever since he came to this place, at least. It was like he was sharing the same bed again; it was oddly really warm. And it still was. "Did Suzu sneak in my bed again,"Yakuso groaned slightly, referring to the little brunette he called his sister. It's not like he HATED that she went to sleep with him on the bed. Heck, he actually enjoyed having some company once in a while. But Mamoru didn't approve of it; he said that Yakuso shouldn't encourage her too much. "Okay, Suzu, you know the rules; you can't sleep in my bed. Bro will skin us alive; literally." He pulled off his silvery sheet, expecting to see his little sis snoozing away.

Instead, there were three, odd-looking eggs.

He stared blankly at the eggs for ten minutes……….And then he yelled so loud that the whole neighborhood practically woke up.

"Yakuso, you okay!? Why'd you yell!? Is there someone in that room!?"

Yakuso jumped out of bed and quickly locked his door; the LAST thing he wanted was to have his brother come in right now. "I-I'm fine; I just can't believe I forgot I have to go to school today! I thought it was Saturday," Yakuso said in laughter. But in his mind he was thinking, "That's the best I could come up with?"

There was a long pause from that excuse he gave his brother; Yakuso held his breathe and hoped for the best. "Y'know Yakuso, you don't have to go to school; I've been given a vacation from Dirk. He's worried about the situation you're in too; he said he'll call up the rest of the gang if it gets too out of hand," Mamoru told him softly.

Yakuso paused for a moment… "I'll be fine, Moru; I have to handle my own problems anyway."

There was another pause between the two brothers…. "Okay, but be careful today. If I even HEAR they put a finger on you- well, just get ready."

Yakuso listened to the faint footsteps as his brother walked away…and as soon they were gone, he went back to the eggs, calmly this time. "Okay, how the heck did you three get in here," Yakuso asked mainly to himself. He grabbed a science book from his bookshelf and began to read for a few minutes as he walked back to his bed. "There's no way I made you; guys don't have or lay eggs," He said as he shut the book. He went on the bed and laid down; he wanted a better look at them. They weren't exactly the most normal eggs he had ever seen; heck, they looked like Easter eggs to him. But the eggs were too warm to be that; it felt like something alive was in the three. That was enough to tell him they were different. What really caught his attention were the elaborate details on them. One was red and black with wild flames; another was midnight blue and silver with a calm, solitary river. The last one was forest green and earth brown with a strong, guarded forest. The only thing they all had in common were the dull "Xs" engraved under them. Yakuso picked the one with flames on it and gently traced the details, smiling slightly. "I don't know what will come out, but I'm guessing you'll be a wild little guy, huh?" For some reason, he felt a warm, aura surround him…or maybe it was his imagination? He shrugged it off. Yakuso looked at the other two eggs and picked them up as well, now cradling them caringly in his arms. He opened a small treasure chest and put the forest and the river egg inside. "I'm gonna take this little guy with me to school today; I get the feeling I could use a little 'fire' today." He smiled as he hid the two other eggs in his secret spot. "Don't worry; I'll take you guys AFTER I'm sure it's safe for you two. Don't get into too much while I'm gone." He smiled lightheartedly at this thought as he placed the red egg in a small, velvet case in his book bag, and left to school…

While he was going to school

Yakuso walked casually on his way to school. His sister had gone ahead of him as usual. So he was walking at his own pace to school as usual. Yakuso found it a bit odd; Hikari used to always walk with him to school. Yakuso stopped walking for a moment and looked sadly at his feet; did he do something wrong? "Yakuso-Chan, watch out!" Yakuso didn't turn to the call and just held a hand to stop the small soccer ball that had headed his way. He looked at it for a moment and smiled as he heard a pair of small feet running toward him. "Yakuso-Chan, can you play with us?"

He sighed as he turned to see a small group of 3rd graders running toward him with excitement. The smallest of the group, a boy with bright green, ran the fastest out all of them and grabbed Yakuso in a happy hug. "I get it; you're happy, Denki. But I don't really have time to play with you all today. Unlike you I actually have to work in class and at my job."

The little boy pouted at this remark. "You always say that. Just tell them to give you a break."

All the other kids said their agreements at once.

A small girl with pink hair and a pair of glasses wasn't as hyper as everyone else. She pushed up her glasses and gave Denki a disapproving look. "He's older than us, it's only natural he has to do more work than us Denki."

"Thanks for being a know-it-all, Nodoka!"

She ignored Denki's remark and smiled at Yakuso. "But it is true; you should come play with us one day. How about this Saturday?"
That girl sure knew how to make a good bargain; sometimes it as just plain scary. "Sure thing." Yakuso took Denki off him and began to walk away. "Wait for you're teacher; I have to get going," he said as he began to walk away.

"BYE YAKUSO-CHAN! MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOU'RE PROMISE," The whole group shouted as he watched their teacher run toward them.

Yakuso just smiled as he continued slowly on his way…

Yakuso's 1st class

"Well, looks like you didn't skip Yakuso; did you miss us that much," Daikon asked mockingly as he and Gaki once again crowded around Yakuso's desk. Mr. Ganbaru was out of the class longer than expected, so the two decided to pick on Yakuso for the fun of it. In short, it was a normal day.

That is, until something clicked in Yakuso.

Much to the surprise of everyone, Yakuso gave a smirk and for the first time, spoke to the two. "Of course I did; what other fat morons can I laugh at if you two aren't here?" Meanwhile he was thinking, "What the heck!? I didn't want to say that! I was thinking it; but I didn't want to SAY it!"

Every single student was both happy and down right terrified for Yakuso now. They were happy he finally spoke up for himself; but then again, the first thing out of his mouth was sharp, sarcasm that really seemed to get the two bullies angry. In hopes to calm both of them down, Luna stood between the three boys. Actually it looked like she was defending Yakuso from her brother. "P-Please don't f-fight, B-big Brother; y-you'll get in t-trouble," Luna stammered nervously as she stood closer to Yakuso.

Big mistake; it seemed to anger Daikon even more than before. "You'd choose some stranger over your brother!? What kind of sister are you!?"

Luna cringed a little until she felt someone stand in front of her protectively; Yakuso. She was a little surprised by the actions he was taking, but she was too scared of her brother at the moment to object. She gently held onto his shirt dependently; she was happy he didn't push her away. "Maybe it's the fact that her own brother is an arrogant bully; that makes her lose respect for you," Yakuso growled a little. But once again, his mind was saying something else. "Okay, there's something wrong with my mouth; it's moving on its own!"

Daikon was a little stunned by the sudden remark; even his own friend seemed a little taken aback by this. "D-Don't tell me how to treat my own sister! B-Besides, everyone in this class respects me!" He turned around expecting to get the support of his classmates; all he got were angry glares and crossed arms.

Yakuso in turn raised an eyebrow. "You don't look as popular as you let out. I guess it comes with the job of being the bully."
"T-That's not true; I'm a caring guy! Everyone looks out for me!"

Yakuso could see his words were beginning to affect Daikon and decided to give him the finishing blow. OR at least, his mouth did; his mind was yelling at himself at this point. "Really, then when was the last time you ever cared about anyone other than yourself?" When Daikon didn't answer he smirked a bit. "Yeah, I figured as much. But I'm sure you'll have a lot of time to think it through now." As if on cue, three teachers, including Mr. Ganbaru and the two bullies' parents, came into the room and grabbed the kids. "You two have A LOT of explaining to do," Mr. Ganbaru said sternly as he held up a few pictures of them playing pranks and harassing Yakuso.

That's when it hit Daikon. "You little sneak; you were taking pictures the whole time! Why I oughtta!-" Daikon tried to grab Yakuso but two teachers managed to grab him and Gaki, dragging them both out of the room. Mr. Ganbaru turned back to Yakuso and smiled a little proudly as he gave him a thumbs up. Yakuso was a little surprised by this but smiled weakly and returned the thumbs up. As soon as the teachers were out of the room, Yakuso managed to talk on his own. "I'm sorry about that; guess I over did it, didn't I," Yakuso said a little meekly to his classmates as he scratched the back of his head. What happened next surprised him completely. Every single one of his classmates surrounded him eagerly and began to talk all at once; he wasn't able to understand it all, but they spoke happily. Everyone was smiling and some were giving him pats on the back and encouraging words. But he was still a little worried; he turned to Luna and gave her an apologetic look. Luna just smiled softly; that was enough to tell him she was okay with what happened. He looked back at the large group and smiled for the first time. Looks like his lucky stars did grant his wish…although; he wanted to know what the heck was going on…

Fast Forward to the end of school

"I can't believe this; what a day." Yakuso yawned as he began to walk down his usual route to his job. He was a little tried by the time school ended; he didn't expect the day to just fly by like that. But he was still a little anxious; he wanted to know what had came over him in class. "Could I be bipolar? That won't be good; it'll give Moru a heart-attack." He thought about it a little more and smiled. "Or maybe YOU helped me out," Yakuso said as he took out the fire egg from his backpack. "You really are chaotic, aren't you?"

The egg gave off a warm aura.

He smiled and softly began to sing a tune under his breathe

Paper bags and plastic hearts,

All belongings in shopping carts,

It's Goodbye,

But we got one more night.

Let's get drunk and drive around,

And make peace with an empty town,

We can make it right.

Throw it away,

Forget yesterday,

We'll make the great escape,

We won't here a word they say,

They don't know us anyway,

Watch it burn;

Let it die,

'Cause we are finally free tonight.

Once again, that warm aura came back, except more intense this time. It seemed to enjoy the little song.

"You like that song, huh? You know, you seem like a free-spirit kind of…thing. I think, I'll call you Chaos, whatever you are," Yakuso said as he twirled the egg in his hand.

"Looks like you're spoiling that egg?."

He jumped at the sound of another person's voice and turned to see some high school boy right behind. He had night blue hair and was taller than Yakuso by a few inches; he seemed kind of cat-like in a way

At the sight of this boy, the egg gave off a different aura; a Threatening one.

Yakuso could tell something wasn't right; he took a few steps away from the boy. "Who are you? What do you want," Yakuso asked as he glared at the older boy. He instinctively held the egg closer to him.

The boy seemed amused by this action. "My name is Ikuto." He gave a dangerous, sly grin as he continued to talk. "And you have something I might want," He finished as he took a step toward Yakuso, eyeing the fire egg that the younger boy held in his hand…
