Iza saw the snotty little brat hiding under the slide as he bit his lip and hugged his knees towards his chest. Without missing a beat Iza, ran towards the swing where she enthusiastically tried to reach the sky.

"Hey brat, what the hell are you doing there? Are you trying to be some creepy kid that scares others?" Iza asked as she quickly stole a glance at the boy.

"N-no! Y-y-you're wrong," the little kid replied with shaky voice.

"Suit yourself, but from now on I will call you Brat or maybe Twerp. Either way, they still fit you perfectly," said Iza as she gave a smirk.

"My. Name. Is. Not. Brat. Or. Twerp. It's Akira! Hyuuga Akira," Akira bellowed.

"Hyuuga Akira doesn't suit a creepy Twerp like you. It is for someone that is brave and faces reality and someone smart. Hmm…I imagine a strong character when I hear the names Akira and Hyuuga," Iza replied as she continued to enjoy herself on the swing.

Akira was silent for a while before he finally came out from under the slide with his head looking at the ground, "It's my Father's name."

"That solves the mystery then. How did your parents die?" Iza asked bluntly.

The boy looked taken aback, usually adults would try to avoid the subject but here it is, someone asking him how his Father and Mother has died. "Oi! Reply already will ya. How did your parents die?" slowly, the swing started to slow down as Iza faced the taken aback kid.

"It was a car accident three years ago," Akira replied silently.

"Wow! Three years ago and you're still not adopted. Right now you look like you're around ten and if your parents died when you were seven then a lot of parents would've wanted to have you. Gosh, you must be some terrible kid then," said Iza as she gave Akira a once over.

He had a dirty blonde hair, striking emerald green eyes and a pale skin, he wasn't all that bad for a twerp but it definitely was a wonder why he was not adopted already. "Why should I call someone else Mom and Dad when they are already dead? Those kids in there are stupid, mindless idiots," Akira responded as he slowly sat on the swing next to the blunt teen.

"I agree, they are definitely stupid people but then what would that make you? A genius? Einstein's descendent? Wake up will ya? You're nothing but a moron and a coward. You are worse than those kids inside. At least they are brave enough to face reality and face life head on," said Iza without any compassion. Akira remained silent as her words echoed inside his head but before he had a chance to respond a deep monotonous masculine voice cut through the silence, "Akira they are looking for you. It's time for lunch."

Iza and Akira looked behind and saw the familiar cold brown eyes staring at them with curiosity and of course it belonged to the one and only Kanda Yuu.

"Are you deaf? Do you not want to eat?" Kanda harshly asked. Without saying a word, Akira ran inside, leaving Kanda and Iza alone.


Iza stood up from the swing and looked Kanda straight in the eyes with all seriousness, "Why isn't there anyone adopting Akira?"

"Nobody wants a kid with a bad personality like him. No one on their right mind would want to raise a kid like Akira. They would rather adopt someone cute, polite and warm hearted," Kanda replied bluntly as he walked past Iza and into the direction of the orphanage.

"What!" Iza shrieked with much irritation?

"Look, Akira is nothing but a troublesome kid and every family that has adopted him gave him back quicker than they had decided to get him," said Kanda.

"Fine. You know what? We are adopting him and there's no way you can say no," said Iza with a smirk as an idea brewed inside her mind.
