1 Hey you all...or those of you who have been reading I'm sorry for those of you who still have "The Reawakening" I changed the title of the story for certain reasons...which will remain confidential.
In other words...for the heck of it So sorry for the inconvience...n–ways...on with chapter 7!!!!
"I wonder who that boy was...he looks so familiar." I asked myself as I walked into my one room apartment. I lived on the bad side of town, disowned at twelve and caring for a six year old son was hard. Well he isn't my son...I just call him that cause he calls me mom, he's really my baby brother...but I can't tell him that. If he ever found out that his real mother abandoned him and me, his little heart won't be able to take it. As I walked in he came running to me out of nowhere as usual. "Mom!! How was work?" he asked me happily tightening his grip around my legs.
"What are you still doing awake?" I asked him sternly. "It's late."
"I'm sorry I just wanted to stay up for you." he told me sadly.
"Ah...it's alright," I told him patting his head. "Now go to bed." he just nodded and ran off to the room.
I sighed tiredly. I had a two-bit job that hardly gave me enough money to keep up the rent, let alone buy food. I knew it wouldn't be long before they threw us out. I walked into the kitchen and turned on the light. I saw mail sitting on the table, I reached out and grabbed them. As I was flipping through 'em I saw one that was a light brown color. I read the return address and it read.... "Child Protection Agency."
"Oh no...."
"Man, what a night." I thought to myself as I laid down on my bed. I was a rough day, nearly getting hit by a car, ate some bad rice balls, and almost got food poisoning. This time is so strange it's like as if everyone here lives by the clock, and they are always in a rush. 'Well at least I got my own room.' I thought looking around. It looked like Yusuke had a guest room that he didn't know about, so I'm living here now.
I then remembered that girl I saw....Kari. "I wonder how she's doing." I thought to myself as I turned over and fell asleep.
"Nonononononno, they can't...I won't let them." I screamed in my mind as I tore the letter into little pieces and threw them on the floor. "They can't take him away."
I ran to his room and saw him snuggled up in his sleep with his dog curled up around him. He found this dog not that long ago, and he felt sorry for him so I let him in. I walked to his bed and shook him gently. "Come on sweety...wake up."
"Mom? What is it?" he asked me sleepily waking up.
"Nothing dear...were just leaving again." I told him grabbing a bag and stuffing some clothes in it. "Why?"
"Don't ask questions...please." I asked him as I grabbed his little hand and was about to grab the doorknob when someone knocked on the door. "This is the police please open up!"
"No! Never! You can't take him from me!!" I screamed at the door. I threw the bag to the side and picked him up into my arms and ran into the bed room hugging him tightly. He knew what was gonna happen. It's not the first time, he knew they were here to take him away from me. He started crying softly, they were scared tears. I cradled him in my arms telling him it was going to be ok. I heard the door crash to floor. And I heard a lot of movement in my kitchen. "Miss we have to take the child! Your breaking the law! Your kidnaping him now!" the man shouted from the living room. 'How can I kidnap my own brother?' I asked myself.' I could feel him tightening his grip around me. The door to the bedroom fell to the ground and three men and a women came in with a few policemen. I tried to run but they grabbed me and pulled me back onto the ground.
"No! No! Let me go! Your not gonna take him!" I screamed as I tried to fight against them. I felt one of the men rip him from my arms. "Mama!!" I heard him cry out. I tried to see were they took him, but I was hit in the side of head...and I passed out.
"Oh gawd...what happed?" I asked myself as I picked myself up from the floor. I couldn't remember anything. "Where am I?" I walked into the living room and I saw the mess...then it hit me. I didn't shed one tear or anything, cause I knew that crying wouldn't bring him back. I looked at the clock that was hanging on the wall it said 11: 00 in the morning. I walked to the table and grabbed a marker, I then walked to a blank space on the and wrote:
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN LIFE IS SCREWED UP!!!
SO GOODBYE, AND GOOD RIDDANCE!!!!
I then wrote in small little letters......AND IF U EVER COME BACK TO THIS ROOM., I JUST WANT U 2 KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU....my baby brother.
I threw the marker to the side and I grabbed some change from the table and walked out the door to end it all
"Kurama....why are you making me follow you into town, I don't like being out here." Nak complained walking behind him sulking. "I already told you, we have to ask around and find out more about this villain."
"Who...you mean Gara?"
"How do you know his name?" Kurama asked him stunned. "Well DUH!! I did fight the son of bitch...why wouldn't I know his name?"
"I'm sorry I didn't think you would remember." he said softly.
"Ah it's alright....no worries." he laughed as he walked ahead of him happily.
"It's strange...this boy shows absolutly no sadness or emotion towards the subject at all. I guess he really is like you." Kurama thought to himself as he walked a bit faster to catch up with Nak.
"So were are we going again?"
"Ugh...were going into town, we are almost there we just have to cross that bridge." he explained again pointing to a huge bridge that crossed a river. I stood pretty tall just hovering over the river. "Why did they build it that high....why not just build it straight across?"
"I don't know...they just built it that way."
"Hah, humans are weird!"
"Shhhh...not so loudly Nak."
"Sorry..."
They walked a little while more till they actually caught up with the bridge. Kurama paid the toolbooth guy about fifty cents. They walked onto a walkway were other people were walking.
Next to the walkway were a bunch of cars and trucks stuck in traffic. "I now see why you didn't want to take a vehicle." Nak said watching the cars honk and everything, Kurama just chuckled.
Up ahead screams and shouts could be heard there was also pointing up ahead. "What the hell is going on?" Nak asked aloud. A random stranger told him that a girl had climbed to the top of the bridge and that she might jump. "Is this normal?"
"Yes Nak it is.." Kurama said sadly. "So are we going to do anything about it...?"
"What are you talking about......Nak?" Kurama looked around him and saw that Nak was gone. He then looked up to were the girl was standing and saw him climbing up one of the wires.
"Nak you idiot! What the heck are you doing?" he shouted at him through brainwave.
"I can't help it....I should at least try." he told him still climbing. Kurama said nothing.
(Nak's p.o.v)
"Excuse me miss....can we talk?" I asked her softly as I picked myself up onto the pillar. She was facing the river. She quickly turned around startled, when I saw her a shocked look came upon my face. "Kari...?"
"Oh hi Nak....how have you been?" she asked me simply smileing.
"Kari, what are you doing up here? Come down...."
"No Nak....my life is nothing but pain....there is no point in living anymore." she told me facing the river again, she put one foot out.
"No don't do it....I can help you.." I said as I took a step towards her.
"No you can't....what I want I can never have back, I am sorry." she said sadly. I could see a tear run down the corner of her face.
"Kari...."
"Goodbye...Nak.." she stated turning around facing me. She then let herself fall backwards into the air heading towards the water.
"KARI!!!" I shouted. I ran down the pillar and jumped off after her. I straightend my body so I could fall faster. When I caught up with her I wrapped my arms around her and turned over, with my back facing the water.
"Nak! What are you doing?!" Kari shouted through her tear streaked face.
"Shh...don't worry just trust me." I told her softly. I held on to body tightly, a bit frightened. After a minute which felt like forever I felt I icy cold impact hit my back. Pain shot through my entire body and I heard Kari scream before we hit.....I then passed out still holding on to her.
