An Evil Grin
"A're? The weather earlier was nice but now clouds begun to gather."
"Suddenly change of climate is normal now Tamageroh-san."
"Sigh. You're right. It's like life. At first it was bright, full of enjoyment and happiness. But lately it will turn dark and sad."
Twelve years old Asakura Yoh just smiled. The old man's philosophy was really something. That's why Yoh loves talking to him.
Speaking of love…
He shifted his gaze from the window to his bag. He opened it and took something in there.
Mom and Dad will surely love this good news I will tell… he thought as sheepish smile plastered on his face.
He put back the medal he won from the track and field competition earlier, another thing to celebrate in this day.
"Oi Yoh we're here."
The young brunet stood up from his sit and hopped down from the school bus. "See you tomorrow Tamageroh-san."
The driver waved back to his last passenger before closing the door of the vehicle.
As the bus started to move away, rain began to pour heavily.
Yoh quickly run towards his home. As he closed the gate he felt something amiss. He looked up to their two-storey house and on the terrace he saw a silhouette standing there.
Lightning strikes and what he saw made a chill on his spine.
An evil grin…
He looked down, for some reason that smirk brings goose bumps in his chest.
As he looked up once more the silhouette was already gone.
He quickly ran to the front door.
As he opened this he felt his knees weaken on what he saw…
Blood…
))21((
Yoh abruptly sat up. His breathing was heavy and drops of sweat were visible on him.
His hold on blanket tightened as he gritted his teeth.
"Another nightmare?"
Startled by the voice he knew quite long, Yoh looked up and saw Silva entering his room.
"No," his short replied.
Silva stared at him, trying to read his expression. "You shouldn't think about him that much."
Rage suddenly reflected on his chocolate brown eyes, but quickly vanished that Silva almost not saw it.
"I'm not thinking of anyone."
Silva sighed inwardly. Of course Yoh won't admit about that. "Goldva-sama commanded me to tell you to get ready. This is the day you are waiting for."
He didn't respond.
Silve turned his back to the brunet, but before he exited the room he left some advice.
"Yoh… don't let anger control your heart. Revenge is not the reason of your salvation."
Yoh remained silent as he was left alone. He lay down again on his bed and stared at the ceiling.
What do you know?
Anger… is the fuel of my strength…
Revenge… is my motivation to live…
No one would understand…
No one could…
))21((
"Are you really going to leave?"
"Yeah. Five years are long enough. I couldn't wait anymore."
"Take care of yourself Yoh."
Yoh zipped his bag as he finished packing up his things. He looked at his midget friend and gave him a weak smile.
"You too, Manta."
They went out from his room and walked towards a hall where everyone was waiting.
"Are you ready?" the chief asked him.
"Hai."
"Well then," a metallic door opened upwardly, "this will lead you outside."
Yoh nodded.
"Remember your mission: Find any information about the Tics. Don't let any emotion take over you."
He didn't respond.
"Also, catch this."
Yoh caught an orange rectangular device and examined its buttons.
"That is an oracle bell, evidence that you are a member of Patch. It can also help you to contact us."
"Thanks Goldva-sama."
"Now go, before I change my mind."
Yoh nodded and started to move. The metallic door slowly slid down behind him.
"What a pity, his cheerful attitude really gone," Silva said behind Goldva.
"It can't be help. What happened changed him," Kalim responded. "Do you think he is ready now Goldva-sama?"
"Of course not. Five years of training were not enough. The enemies are stronger than he could think."
"Then why did you allow his request?" Silva growled.
"He's growing impatient. We can't prison him here any longer. Besides we don't have anything left to teach him."
"But… he may die…"
"Let's have faith on him. He is special like his parents."
"Still… the Tics are…"
"Silva, let's just hope Kami-sama will look after him."
))21((
Yoh found his self standing on the grassy land of a mountain. He closed his eyes as fresh air brushed on his face and made him relax. The place was so peaceful.
An evil grin suddenly flashed in his mind. He opened his eyes as anger built inside him.
Yoh unsheathed his katana and held it up. Sunlight made his katana glow.
"I bow… I'll do everything to find him… I will kill him… I'll kill all of them. I'll devastate them. I swear… I will kill the Tics."
