My Big Brother Came Back
I was at some party. I didn't know anyone though. Then someone came up to me. He was tall with brown hair, bright blue eyes and he were wearing a blue robe.
"We're waiting for you" The man said. I stared at him.
"Who are you?" I asked. He smiled and his face faded away. I gasped. I reached out my head trying to grab him but he disappeared.
I opened my eyes. Everything was blurry. I looked up at the ceiling while waiting for my eyes to adjust to the setting. When it was clear, I sat up. I hit my head against the ceiling. Kyo was sitting at my desk.
He disappeared for a while and shows up out of no where. He was looking through something. Snoopy was lying at my feet, sleeping. I crawled over to my ladder and climbed down. Kyo heard me and turned around in my chair.
"Hey" he said. I just stared at him. Kyo looked at the clock. "I have to go. See you later." Kyo got up and walked out the door. I watched him leave then sat at my desk.
I wonder if anyone knows that Kyo is here. But where is he going now? I should've stopped him but why didn't I? I thought. I sighed and closed my eyes. That dream. Who was that? Is that a real guy or just someone in my imagination? My thoughts kept jumping onto a different subject. I opened my eyes and looked at the time. The clock showed 3:00 p.m. Yuki should be home soon.
Someone knocked on my door.
"Come in!" I said. Yuki came in followed by Tohru.
"Sara? Is it okay if Tohru stays in your room?" Yuki asked.
"Sure" I said.
"And Sara? Are you okay? I heard what happened at school today. You shouldn't have pushed yourself" Yuki said sounding concerned.
"I'm fine. I just passed out. That's all. Anyway, did you see . . . " Just when I was going to ask about Kyo, Kyo fell right through my roof. I sighed.
"Great" I said under my breath. "Now I have to fix my roof again." Tohru heard me. She looked over at me.
"TIME TO DIE RAT BOY!" Kyo was about to strike. Tohru stared to panic.
"Don't worry about them" I said to her. I smiled at her. Shigure came home.
"I'M HOME!" he yelled.
"Come on. Let's go eat" I said while pulling her arm.
"Shouldn't we stop them!" Tohru said with a panic in her voice.
"Nah. It will end soon." I turned to her. "Don't worry. They'll be fine. Let me hide some things" I said. I ran around hiding all my breakable stuff in my closet.
Kyo kept trying to kick Yuki but missed every time.
"You're pathetic" Yuki said to Kyo. Kyo was getting more pissed off.
"YOU'RE DEAD!" Kyo said while throwing his last, hard kick.
"NO!" Tohru said. Tohru ran to him and put her arms around him. Before we knew it, Kyo was a cat. Tohru fell onto his clothes.
"Stupid cat" Yuki said under his breath. I sighed. Shigure came running in. He first stopped Tohru on the floor.
"Hello Tohru" Shigure said. Then he spotted an orange kitty on the floor. I walked toward him and grabbed him.
"Now look what you got us into. Hope you're happy" I said to him.
"SHUT UP!" Kyo yelled. Shigure sighed. Tohru was confused. She stood up really fast.
"Oh my gosh! Did I kill him? What did I do!?" Tohru cried out. Tohru got dizzy and fell toward Shigure. Shigure caught her but he turned into a brown dog.
"Mrs. Honda! Please calm down" Yuki shouted with concern. He grabbed Tohru. But then he turned into a grey rat. Tohru sat in the middle of the room, confused.
"I'll explain" I said. "Well, you know the Zodic story right?" I asked Tohru. Tohru nodded. I went on with the story. "Well, Yuki is the rat, Shigure is the dog and Kyo is the cat. Well, I'm not part of the same Zodic as they are. I'm part of the Persian Zodic. I'm year of the cat. There's a cat on my Zodic but not on theirs. Anyway, there's more people in the Zodic" I explained.
Tohru sat on the floor confused. Then a crashing sound followed by smoke suddenly happened. Kyo, Yuki and Shigure returned to their normal selves, except for one thing. They were naked.
I went to fetch their clothes. Tohru was staring at the wall disgusted. I gave them their clothes then went to grab Tohru. I grabbed her arm and tugged. She looked at me.
"Come on, let's leave so they could dress" I told her. She got up and left the room with me. We went into the kitchen. I watched her look around the kitchen. Shortly afterward Kyo, Yuki and Shigure entered the kitchen.
"I'm hungry" Shigure said. Kyo was pissed off because he didn't beat Yuki yet. Someone's stomach grumbled.
"Tohru is going to cook and clean" Yuki said. I nodded.
"But I'll cook cookies and brownies" I said. Kyo smiled.
"You still make your delicious cookies?" Kyo asked. I giggled.
"Of course" I replied. "I'm going to clean up my room" I said while grabbing Kyo. "And you're coming with me to fix the ceiling you broke! Damn Cat." Snoopy followed me. I looked down. "Not you Snoopy. Sorry."
Kyo and I walked down the hall to my room. I let Kyo go and went to the closet. I grabbed my vacuum and plugged it in. I went to get a bag. Kyo followed.
"What happened today?" Kyo asked.
"I fainted. That's all" I responded.
"I know there's more. I can hear it in your voice. You're hiding something from me." I grabbed a bag and sped off back to my room.
"Fix the ceiling" I demanded him.
"I will! Tell me the truth."
"Fine! I had a strange dream. Is that enough?"
"What was it about?"
"It was very strange" I said while thinking about it. I didn't understand the dream at all. I'm usually good at decoding dreams. Why can't I decode this one?
"So, tell me little sister!"
"A man who was tall with brown hair, bright blue eyes and wearing a blue robe said something to me. He said to me 'We're waiting for you' or something like that. Everyone was dancing and laughing behind him. It was like he was my God for my Zodic" My voice faded when I ended my sentence.
I thought about the first time I explained to Kyo about what happened to the Persian Zodic. I told him 2 years ago.
-Flashback-
Kyo was sitting on the couch daydreaming. I came up to him.
"Hey Kyo. Watcha doing?" I asked him.
"Nothing. Just thinking. Hey Sara, if you're part of the Zodic how come you don't have a New Year's celebration like my Zodic. Do you even know other members of the Persian Zodic?" Kyo asked me. I sighed.
"I wish I knew. But I don't. In the myth, they say that something happened. God separated us, but not for long. Only until he comes back to us finding us in the world. Pulling us together for a celebration. Sadly we don't know what he looks like. But he's powerful" I explained. Kyo grabbed me.
"He won't ever get my little sister" Kyo yelled while tackling me next after grabbing me. I screamed then laugh. His words just hit me.
"Little sister? You never called me that before" I told him.
"Well, it's true, isn't it? You're like a little sister to me." I couldn't help but smile.
"Well, you're my big brother" I said. He chuckled then got off.
-End of Flashback-
I return to present time. Kyo was poking me with a stick. I turned toward him. He had an evil grin on his face and cackling. I whacked his hand.
"Stop that!" I shouted.
"Well! You were just standing there with a gaze look!" Kyo argued. I looked up. Kyo was done fixing the roof. Sadly it was only a patch job.
"I'm taking money out of your account to fix the ceiling" I said to him as I look at the patch job.
Tohru and Yuki came in with bags. Tohru looked really nervous.
"Are you sure I'm not imposing?" Tohru asked. Yuki smiled.
"Don't worry Mrs. Honda" Yuki responded.
"How a bout this?" Shigure said. "We'll leave you with the cooking and cleaning and let you stay in Sara's room. Do you like that deal?"
"Yes" Tohru replied. Tohru put down her stuff. Yuki and Shigure left the room.
"I made some room for your clothes in the closet. And you get to sleep on the bottom bunk" I said to her in my sweet voice.
"Thank you so much" Tohru said while bowing down. The doorbell rang. I looked at my door. Kyo came in shortly after.
"You friend Patty wants to know if you want to come hang out and go shopping today" Kyo said. I smiled.
"I'll come! Tell her I'll be out in a minute." Kyo left and headed back to the living room. I went to help Tohru.
"Don't worry about it. Go see your friend. I'll be fine" Tohru told me.
"Are you sure?" I asked. Tohru beamed at me.
"Yes. I'll be fine. Go enjoy yourself." I gave Tohru a hug than ran to get my purse in my closet.
"I'll be back before dinner" I said. "I have my cell phone with me. The number is on my desk if you need to reach me." I headed down the hall. I saw Patty. She got taller and taller every step I took when I got closer.
"Patty!!!!!" I squealed on top of my lungs. I ran toward her with my arms opened.
"Sara!!!" Patty squealed. She ran toward me. We ran into each other arms. Shigure smiled. Yuki and Kyo were annoyed.
"Let's go!" I said while taking Patty's arm. "So anyone else coming?" I asked.
"Yep! I dragged Lizzy, Sophie, Zita, Ayaka, Justin, Gary and uhhh . . . there's more. Hold on" Patty said while thinking. "Oh! Danny and Crissy!"
"Yay!" I yelled. We started walking toward the bus stop. Someone was sitting and talking to someone. They looked familiar. I looked harder. It was Lizzy and Justin. Patty saw them and started to run toward them. I followed her.
"Oh dear" Lizzy said while Justin and Lizzy took cover. Patty attacked Lizzy first for a hug then Justin. Justin looked terrified. Justin had his eyes closed then opened them when Patty finished hugging him. Justin relaxed.
"Ello" I said to them.
"Hey" Justin and Lizzy responded. I sat next to them.
"Let's get cookies!" I shouted. Everyone smiled. The bus came. We took out our passes and got on. We sat down.
"So Lizzy" I said. "Are you doing anything special with Gary sometime this weekend?" I asked her. Lizzy blushed.
"No. I have a lot of homework and he's busy" Lizzy answered. I was a little bit disappointed because it seems that Lizzy and Gary never have time alone to be with each other. At school they try but it doesn't last long. I'm happy that they're happy together.
One day I'll find an opening in both their schedules so they could spend time together outside of school I thought. I smiled at the thought and looked at my feet. I toned back into their conversation.
"There's someone new who's worse than Jen" Lizzy said. My jaw dropped. Justin looked at Lizzy then at me.
"What is her name?" I asked her.
"Belle. She's in our grade. But Jen hates her. Belle is taking all Jen's fame" Lizzy said with a grin. "But Belle is a lot worse than Jen."
"I haven't even heard about Jen" I said.
"Same" Patty and Justin both said. The bus stopped. We got up and got off the bus. We stood in front of the mall.
"Oh no" Lizzy said while staring at the front entrance.
"What?" I asked. Lizzy pointed someone out.
