Yin-Yang
Now, I'm not one for cussing but... DAMN! I got some good feedback from one reviewer:
Hacen. He reviewed 7 TIMES! He is a very good supporter. Don't believe me? Check out the
reviews page and you will be surprised. Because of Hacens incredible reviews, I have decided to
screw the whole 20 reviews crap. I'm finishing the story all the way. Because I give him extreme
homage, check out his story, The road to where we are. It's one of the best I've seen in a long time
and it has some extremely good story elements. This story I hope to stretch to about 40 chapters if I
can manage it. Than, I can get started on some other projects. Remember guys and girls, your
undying appreciation for this story will make me finish it as best as I can.
Now, I apologize for not putting in an ending word on the last chapter, but I was in a hurry
to get that chapter up and running. I will try not to let that happen again. I also said that chapter
would take place over 2 weeks. Also attributed to my hurriedness.
Incase you were wondering about the whole yin-yang perception in this story, I will explain
in the story through Eric. See if you can find other opposites complimenting each other. To get you
started here's one: Angela's extreme happiness and Eric's utter hatred are 2 total opposites that rely
upon each other and work together at their best.
I think I've rambled long enough. On with the story. You know what comes next... LINKIN

Lizzie was completely shocked when Eric said that. She looked at him with a look that said
'You know?'
"Yeah, my sister told me about your conversation about me... not that I'm surprised. I
figured some kid would want to know about me. Just didn't think it would be you."
"Well I... I..."
"Well, do you want to know more?" No answer. Eric started to walk away thinking she was
hopeless when she piped up.
"Wait! I would like to know you better."
"Than ask."
The conversation wasn't very detailed. Lizzie just asked about his life and stayed away from
the subject of his mom. Eric knew she had already asked Angela about that because if she hadn't,
she would have asked why he acted the way he did. So he did something that defied all explanation
about him.
"So what did my dear sister tell you about my mom?"
Another bombshell. And by the look on Lizzie's face, she was ashamed about asking that.
"It's okay. I know you asked."
"How did you know?"
"I'm gifted with an ability to know a lot about someone just from what they say and do. I
know you asked Angela about mom because... If you didn't, you would have asked me why I act the
way I do right now."
"Wow. You are good."
"Thanks."
"Sooo... what did you think of me when you first saw me?"
"I thought you were a snobby, spoiled little brat. But, apparently I was wrong. For once.
"Well, you were. That's my brother."
"Yeah, I assumed he was a trouble maker."
"Was? He is."
Eric laughed. This girl had wit to match his. A good qaulity. 'I think Angela might have an
equal.'
"Um... I have a few questions about what happened to your mom."
'Damn.'
"Were the men ever caught?"
"No."
"Was she a good mom?"
Eric had a puzzled look on his face. Like he couldn't remember.
"I can't remember. I spent so much time trying to forget. To heal. I spent so much time
trying to get rid of myself, that I left any memories of before the crime behind. Forgotten."
Lizzie was so touched with this that she wanted to reassure him. But he seemed to be so okay
with how he felt on this, that it was kind of scary. Than she realized that Eric had spent so much
time trying to kill off his old self, the self that was tied to the past and the tragedy, that he had killed
any emotion that wasn't anger or sadness.
She tried to change the subject and found the perfect excuse.
"Hey, what's that on your sleeve?" She was referring to his Yin-Yang patch that he received
at his old dojo.
"It's a Yin-Yang. The Asians believe that the power of the universe can be divided into 2
different sides. The good or Yin. And the evil or Yang. It's believed that the powers cannot exist
without the other. They feed off of each other and give strength to the other. It's also believed that
every person in the world has their own personal Yin-Yang. Some people have stronger Yin than
Yang. Others have stronger Yang than Yin. It's what makes us and it unites us throughout the
world, giving us strength and power."
"Is that all?"
"No. It's usually referred to a lot of things. Ever hear of opposites attract? Same basic
principle. Fire and Ice? Same thing. It's also popular to associate the Yin-Yang to soul mates."
"Soul mates?" Now it was getting interesting. And judging from the tone in her voice, Eric
knew he had her attention.
"Yeah. People tend to think that the person who is completely your opposite, might just be
the one."
Lizzie opened her mouth to ask wether he believed in it or not but than her mother called her
in.
"Well, I've got to go. Nice talking to you."
"Same to you."
As she walked away, Eric thought to himself, 'She might be worth hanging around with.'
And with that thought, he turned and walked back into his house.
Whew, what a write up. Now that was fun. Well, I hope you are enjoying the story so far, it
will really get better, I promise. Tell my next update... kikiki... mamama... kikiki... mamama...
