Chapter Eight
The sun had risen recently; and many had risen with it. Many, not including one Grizzly Bear, who had decided to atay awake.
Within the homely walls of a decently sized villa, said Bear sat upon a an expensive couch, sipping expensive alchohol, and wearing expensive clothes.
That Bear was named Asahi.
And he had thoroughly decided that he despised his younger brother. The damn idiot had let some teen break into his car!
Asahi leaned forwards with a sigh. At the good age of twenty five, he should not have to worry about the idiotic escapades of his younger brother, but Asahi did not leave a normal life.
Mostly due to his 'Grand Lineage', his father would say, if he was there, and not in an even larger villa.
"Daimyo, damn it, we are and always have been Daimyo.", a direct quote from his father.
Asahi finished his drink, setting it down on the table, and taking off the jacket of his suit.
It wasn't like his father wasn't correct, the Kuma clan had been, for thousands of years. Fading in and out of prominence, they had still survived.
And Asahi would have had a rather peaceful life if his father hadn't gotten a fetish with "Returning to how we were"...
Of course, the old bastard wasn't really fit to run his idea for getting back into prominence, so Asahi had been given this stressful role.
He opened the door to his balcony, and leaned upon the railing, taking a deep breath.
He could fix this. He always did.
Asahi took out his phone, and texted an old number.
'We'll find him, and give him a lesson on why no one fights with the Kuma Clan. Maybe you'll stop acting like a fucking moron?'
After a thought, Asahi erased the last sentence, and clicked send.
He put his phone in his pocket, with a sigh.
Maybe he could find a couple prostitutes to better his mood?
Meinai sat down on his new, comfy hospital bed, his leg in a small sling.
But none of that mattered, as he wallowed in his worry. Zasshu hadn't been home this morning. How long was he gone?! Was he okay?!
Meinai had attempted to run downstairs when he realized that Zasshu was nowhere to be found, tumbling down the stairs and leaving his leg in it's current state.
He'd do it a thousand times more if it would let him know where Zasshu was.
"Sir? You have a visitor." A nurse said. She smelled like some sort of feline.
Meinai sat back, and gave a thumbs up.
"M-Meinai?" a voice asked, noticeably shaky.
He sat up almost instantly, forcing the nurse to order, "Sir, please calm down, we don't want any more problems with your leg!"
"Zasshu; come here." he said after he calmed down...
And once Zasshu came close enough, he gave his ear a hard pull.
"Zasshu! Where were you last night?!" he said angrily, before pulling him into a hug.
Meinai could hear Zasshu stutter.
"W-Well, I was out with my friends again..."
Meinai rubbed his face with one hand.
"Zasshu, go to the waiting room, I'll be out soon. When we get home, you're grounded." He ordered.
Zasshu, who was in no place to argue, left with no complaint, offering quiet apologies to the nurse.
When Zasshu left the room, the nurse asked Meinai a question.
"Do you want him to be notified, sir?"
Meinai shook his head.
He didn't want to put that on the poor boy just yet, he had been through so much, and it was unlikely that his life would change much.
Who wouldn't be crushed if they knew the one that they think of as a father was dying?
Hey guys, thank you for waiting so long, and Im sorry.
My dad had a bad medical emergency last weekend, and I wasn't able to write.
But, now I'm back and the story will go along as normal
Thank you all for reading, this story wouldn't have been made if it wasn't for you all, and I'll see you all in the next chapter :)
