Chapter 2
The park
Slow pan as the sound of stray electrical crackling subsides. Frame comes to rest on the figure of a half demon and half human kneeling faced away, in the previously empty yard. He stands, slowly. The boy is in his teens, tall and powerfully built, moving with graceful precision. Beside are three little demons a little bug, a little human a half fox and a human half tiger. The boy's his facial features reiterate the power of his body and are dominated by the eyes, which are intense, blue and depthless. He glances down, taking calm inventory of himself, and notices that a fine white ash covers his skin. He brushes at it unconcernedly as he walks toward the fence, scanning his surroundings.
The half demon boy approaches the schoolyard fence beyond which is an embankment rolling down in darkness to the cityscape below. The school is perched at the edge of a promontory offering a respectable view of the urban sprawl teeming and glistening under a sullen sky. The night clouds are shot through with occasional flashes of LIGHTNING, presaging a thunderstorm. The boy stands, hands on hips in prefect symmetry, gazing down at the city.
"Shimato, where are we?" kai asked.
"I don't know! Let me check the big book!" Shimato the fox said.
Shimato takes out this big book, and opens it! She goes through the whole book and couldn't find what she was looking for.
"Nope! Sorry I can't find it, Kaitimua!" shimato says.
"That's okay!" kai said, looking at the city.
Ten minutes later.
Kai was walking in the park, but stop suddenly. He heard noises coming from the open area of the park. So he and his friends decided to investigate the whole thing. They moved closer to the opening, but they wanted to be very quite, it was to hard for kai to not make a sound, because he was a half demon. Laughter was heard threw out the park and yelling.
"IT'S NOT FUNNY!" Tyson yelled at the others.
"Yes it is!" Kevin laughed.
"Hahahahahahaha! I'm laughing so hard, that I'm crying!" Johnny said.
"/those voices! I know those voices! I heard them before/" kai thought, while starring at them.
Something was rubbing against shimato's nose and she was going to sneeze.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAACCCHOOO!" shimato said.
Kai quickly grabbed shimato's mouth and whispered, " not a sound!"
The bladers quickly turned around and starred at the bush.
"Who ever you are come out?" Rei said.
"Yeah! Come and face us! You coward!" Lee said.
"Coward? How dare they call me coward?" Kai whispered.
"Kaitimua, don't!" Piteeric the bug said.
"But, they called me a coward!" Kai said.
"No!" Tericila the half demon said.
"Fine!" kai said.
Later that night.
A beer bottle smashes on the ground. Gang members lounging on the jungle gym of a deserted playground. They sport nondescript PUNK REGALIA...torn T- shirts, fatigue pants, combat boots or high-top sneakers, leather jackets. The leader notices something and sits up.
"Hey, hey! What do we have here?" the leader asked.
Kai walks into a pool of streetlight, striding purposefully toward them. He approaches them. They slide from their perches and drop easily to the ground liquid shadows.
"Nice night for a walk, eh?" the leader asked.
Kai stops right in front of them. He just stares at them. They surround him; all swagger and malign good humour.
"Where did you come from, freaks Ville?" the second gang member asked.
Kai's right eye began to twitch! He stared at them without expression, unhurried. Reptilian.
"What is wrong with you dude?" The leader asked.
Kai turn to the second punk, ignoring the others.
"What year is it?" Kai asked.
The punks exchange glances, dismayed.
"I said what year is it and where did you get your clothes? They are ugly" Kai asked again.
"Fuck you, asshole!" the second gang member said, throwing a punch at kai's face.
Kai went flying back, couple of feet! His friends turned to the gang members and starred.
"You are in trouble!" shimato said.
"You shouldn't have done that!" Piteeric said.
"You are in for it now!" Tericila said.
"Hey look! Talking bug and talking weirdo's!" the third gang member said.
Just then kai got up and walked towards them. He stopped and starred.
"You know, you shouldn't stare at people!" the fourth gang member said, while walking forward to kai.
Without warning kai hammer-punches him in the temple with blinding speed. The blow flings him with a CLANG into the jungle gym. He drops to the ground in a still heap, eyes open, twitching. The leader whips out his switchblade and slashes in one motion. Kai ducks back and catches the knife wielder's wrist in an inhuman grip. Then he punches the leader with pile driver force just below the breastbone. The knife clatters down. The punk's combat boots are on tiptoe, barely touching the ground. Kai and the leader are close together as if dancing, but motionless. Their bodies are in total shadow. The punk's eyes are wide, his veins distended with an agonizing pressure. Kai jerks his fist back with a WET SOUND and the other drops OUT OF FRAME. The last tough is stumbling away, gaping with terror. He backs into a chain link fence, turns to run along it, finds he is in a corner.
"Kaitimua enough! Leave them alone!" shimato said.
Kai walked away and said, " You are lucky!"
They three demons decided to walk away from the gang and went off to find some food. They walked about 20 miles before, hitting a hotdog stand. The hotdog guy was starring at kai, weirdly. Kai stopped and sniffed the stand.
"What are you doing?" The hotdog man asked.
Kai kept on sniffing the stand. A girl walks to the stand and order a hotdog. Kai was sniffing her, touching her but!
