Lucas awoke the next day to the sound of knocking on her door; slowly she got up and made her way to the door. She opened it to see a boy waiting. "HI!" he beamed happily.

"Uhh, hey Kuro" Lucas rubbed his eyes; it was way too early for him to be so loud. He smiled and took Lucas's hand to shake. Kuro was a shorter boy that had dark brown hair, with a lighter shade of brown peeking through in certain places, it extended above his shoulders His eyes were caramel brown. He wore a simple white shirt with black jeans.

"Doji told me to give you this letter from your brother" Kuro handed Lucas an envelope. "He also said that when visiting day comes around…umm…your brother won't be able to come see you. Work problems I guess." Kuro looked down, feeling sad for his friend. Lucas didn't say anything. "But, if you want you and I can hang out! We can read manga and maybe try to get Rex back for letting those glow bugs loose in your room last week. I have a jar of rollie pollies in my room-" Kuro's eyes widened when Lucas steeped back in his room and slammed his door.

"Okay…see you later!" Kuro called and began to walk down the hall. Now I'm really sad for Lucas…his brother hasn't been by in over two months and we have visiting twice a month! Kuro sighed looking down; he began to think about his siblings. I wish big sis would come see me; it's been so long since I've seen any of my family. Kuro felt something bump his shoulder, but they kept walking. Kuro turned to see Tempest walking. "Oh, Tempest! Wait up!" Kuro spun around to catch up with the older boy.

Tempest's hair was longer; brushing a bit passed his shoulders and bangs in his face. It was dyed black with red streaks around the left side. The back was styled up a bit. He had dark purple eyes and a pale completion with a small scar nest to his right eye. He was wearing a plain black V-neck shirt with a gray jacket and dark jeans with combat boots.

"What are you doing? Anything fun?" Kuro wrapped and arm around Tempests.

"Nothing, I'm just running and errand for Namu."

"Oh can I go with you?"

"You can't leave!" Tempest snapped.

"Aww, well later do you want to hang out? We can read manga or something."

"No thanks."

"But we haven't spent any time together lately" Kuro complained. "How about we watch something together later?"

"I'd rather not watch murder mystery shows all night."

"But-"

"Kuro, will you just go away!" Tempest half shouted, stopping in his tracks; they had made it to the front doors. "You're being really annoying and I don't want to hear it!" Tempest scowled at the younger. "Leave me alone, dealing with you yesterday was enough for me!" Kuro looked down, feeling the urge to cry. He spotted Rex in the corner of his eye standing in front the front desk. "All you ever do is talk and whine about anything just to be annoying. You always have to have someone's attention on yourself!"

"That's" Kuro stopped, clenching his fists "That's not fair! All I've been is nice to you since you brought me here and you've done nothing but treat me like dirt! What happened? We perfectly fine before we came here, you were nice and loved to spend time with me. Now you're just horrible!" Tempest just ignored the younger and push past him to leave the building. Kuro silently cried to himself.

Rex, who watched the whole thing slowly walked up to Kuro. "Hey…are you okay?" He awkwardly patted Kuro's shoulder.

"I'm FINE!" Kuro pushed Rex away and ran off.

"Hey!" Rex regained his balance, "I was just trying to cheer you up!"
