Last Time

"Oh!!! I went the wrong way. Oops stupid me." Neko said as she got up and walked the other way.

Chapter 2

Zero just walked down the road with his hands behind his head thinking. 'I wonder where she came from? Well that really isn't any of my business. I wonder if she likes me. Well ……… I think that she's kinda cute anyway.' Zero thought as he kept walking. He kept like this ……… until a few guys came up and disrupted his thoughts. "Hey man!!! Did you get a chance to talk to that new girl, Neko, yet?" one of Zero's friends said as he went out in front of him. "Um not yet. The only thing that she told me was that she came from somewhere else. That's all I got from her." Zero said as he just walked right past them. "Hey!! What's wrong with you?" one of the guys said as he walked up beside him. "Nothing I'm just tired." Zero said as he walked up a sidewalk to a house. "See ya tomorrow." Zero said as he entered the house.

"Hey mom I'm home." Zero said as he set his bag down beside the stairs. "Oh honey!! You're home already?" his mom said as she walked down the stairs. "Yeah …. School lets out around this time every day. Why?" Zero said in a curious kind of way. "Well ….. I was hoping that you would take a little longer today. I wasn't done with the surprise yet." His mom said as she sweat dropped a little. Then Zero just gave a look of shock and surprise. "Oh you'll find out soon enough." His mom said as she walked back upstairs. "What?!?!?!?" Zero said as he followed his mom upstairs. He found his mom in the guest room. Zero then had a look of confusion on his face as he walked into the guest room.

When Zero walked into the room, he saw his mom cleaning the room up. Then after she was done with that, she got out the sheets and comforter and made the bed. "Well, I think that that should do it." His mom said as she gathered up all of her cleaning supplies and went back downstairs. "WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!" Zero said as he ran downstairs and into the kitchen where his mom was. Then she set the table with one extra spot. "Are we expecting someone or something?" Zero said as he took a seat at the table. "You'll see." His mom gave Zero a little smile.

Then, there was a knock on the door right in the middle of dinner. "Who in the world would be at the door at this time?" Zero said. Then his mom got up and went to the door. "Ahh!! You finally made it. Come in dear. Come in." his mom said as she let the person in and closed the door. "Can I take your things? Zero!!! Get in here!! Take her things up to the guest room." His mom said. Then the girl looked up in surprise. "Um …I can get it." The girl just said. Just then, Zero walked around the corner and saw the guest. It was Neko.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" Zero said as he had a look of confusion on his face. "Zero!!!! How can you be so rude!!!!" his mom yelled at him. "Now, show the young lady up to her room." His mom ordered. "What?!?!?!?! Her room!!!!!" Zero said with surprise in his voice. "Yes her room. Now get your butt in gear young man and take Miss Kage's things upstairs!!" his mom ordered yet again. "Ok, ok. No need to get all bossy." Zero said as he picked up Neko's things and took them upstairs while Neko followed.

"Here's your room." Zero said in an annoyed voice. Then Neko opened the door and Zero dropped her stuff on the bed, then he left. After the door closed, Neko then put her cloths up and put her stuff in the bathroom. Then she sat down at the window seat and looked out at the stars and up at the big navy sky.

Back downstairs, Zero came stomping down the stairs. He then looked at his mom and said, "Why is she here?!?!?!" "Oh honey, if you really want to know then ok I guess. Well, the other day I got a letter from and old friend. She wrote that there was trouble in her town and that she needed to send her daughter somewhere safe and out of harms way because she didn't want to see her daughter killed with the rest of them. So she said that she was going to send her here." His mom said as she started the dishes. Zero just sat ther quietly.

Neko just sat there at the window and looked out it. Then she saw a star shoot across the sky. Neko's eyes widened and then returned back to normal. Then, a tear streamed silently down her face as she whispered, "Mom." Neko then drifted into a deep sleep. Meanwhile, back downstairs, Zero was freaking out about the idea of Neko living with them. "But why does she have to live here?!?!?!" Zero said as he followed his mom around the house. "Zero, we've gone over this a million times! She will be staying with us and that's that! No further discussion."

Then Zero just sat down on the couch and started to brood. "I don't know why she has to though." Zero mumbled. His mom just kinda ignored what he said and kept doing what she was doing. Then, Zero got up and said, "Whatever. I'll see ya in the morning." , and then walked up the stairs and into his room.
