Chap. 3

Dinner had just been set and everyone was gathered. Yugo hadn't arrived yet, so they chatted awhile. 'They' as in Uriko and Alice. Mitsuko was getting the last dishes ready and Shin and Kenji were normally quiet.

"I'd wish Yugo hurry up. I'm staving!"

"Well, you know how he is. He just has to make an entrance."

The two girls laughed before turning their attention to the boys.

"What about you Shin? What do you like to do?

"……………"

Umm, hello? Is anyone home?"

Shin suddenly shook his head a bit."

"Huh? Oh, sorry."

"It looks like you zoned out there?"

"I guess I was daydreaming."

"Oh, really? About what?

"…………."

"Geez, you act more like Kenji every minute."

Kenji and Shin faced each other for a brief minute before turning away again. The doorbell rang and Alice went to get it. On the opposite side was a brown haired man of medium build with an X-cross scar in between his eyes.

"Yugo!"

Alice suddenly leapt out and gave Yugo a fierce hug. Yugo returned it briefly before moaning a bit.

"Do you have to do this every time?"

"Of course I do. It shows that I care. But are you aware that you are late?"

"Oh, well you know me. I have to make a good entrance."

"Do you two want a room?"

They didn't notice Kenji behind them and they had forgotten that they were still embraced together. Sliding apart, Yugo then walked up to his brother and rubbed his hair.

"Ahhh. Cut it out. You know how much I hate it when you do that."

"That's why I do it. Now we're even for that 'get a room' remark."

Yugo, Alice, and Kenji re-entered the house.

"Wow, something smells good. I'm starving."

"You are not having one bite until you wash your hands, young man!" Mitsuko yelled from the kitchen.

"Aw." Yugo moaned aloud. He walked into the living room where Uriko and Shin still were.

"Hey kid."

"Stop calling me that! I'm not a kid."

"Heh, sure you are. And who's this?"

"Oh, this is Shin. He's a guest for dinner."

"Well, the more, the merrier." Yugo let out his hand to shake. "I'm Yugo. Yugo Ohgami."

Shin took his hand, "Yugo Ohgami. That name sounds famil…ahhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"

Shin suddenly let go of Yugo hand and grasped his head, screaming in pain.

"Shin? What's wrong?"

Shin began to crumple to the ground, his hands gripping his hair and his screams continuing. Uriko and Alice moved forward to help him and then he stopped screaming.

"Shin. Are you okay?"

Then a small sound was heard coming from him. It was barely recognizable, but enough to know it was laughter. Suddenly without warning, Shin leapt into the air, his leg spinning around kicking both Uriko and Alice. Then he landed and hit Kenji with a backhanded fist, knocking him to the wall. Finally, he crouched low and kicked Yugo in the chin, causing him to roll out of the house. Yugo stood up and faced Shin. His eyes were different, blank and cold. He held two of his fingers upward in front of his face. It was the classic trademark of a ninja. Shin then spoke, his voice cold and dangerous as steel.

"Yugo Ohgami. By order of the Tylon Foundation, you are sentenced to die…"

Shin leapt high into the air, ready to strike down.

"…by the hand of Bakuryu!"
