Chapter 1: Encounters
It was just a normal day in Tokyo, Japan. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and Tyson and Hilary were having, yet, another argument.
"Will you just back off, Hilary!" Tyson shouted, his face red from anger.
"I'm only trying to help, Tyson!" Hilary said, trying to calm him down.
"I don't need your help! Besides, you're not even part of this team!" he said.
"Not part of it? NOT PART OF IT! Of course I'm part of this team! I gave up my normal life just to be with you guys! And you say I'm not part of it!" she yelled.
Without warning, Hilary punched Tyson hard on the nose, causing it to bleed.
Ray, Max, Daichi, and Kenny didn't want to get involved, not to mention get their butts kicked, and so they let Tyson and Hilary practically beat each other up.
Kai, on the other hand, wanted nothing to do with it, so he got up on his feet and walked out the door.
While walking down the street with his hands in his pockets, Kai was deep in thought.
Suddenly, something hard hit his chest, causing him to fall on his back hard.
He winced a bit as he saw a young girl, about his age, with amethyst eyes and silverish blue hair down to her elbow, right on top of him.
She looked around, as if not knowing what had just happened.
She noticed Kai and went wide eyed.
"Oh, my god! I'm so sorry!" she said, quickly getting off of him.
"Hmph." was all Kai said as he got up to his feet, and brushed himself off.
"Did I hurt you? 'Cause if I did, I'm SO sorry!" she apologized again.
"I'm fine." Kai said bitterly, not looking directly at her.
"I didn't mean to knock you over." she said.
Kai opened his eyes and examined the girl.
She wasn't that bad.
She quickly gave him a warm smile, which lit up her face.
"My name's Sakura Himuri. What's your name?" she asked.
"Hmph. The name's Kai Hiwatari." he answered coldly.
"Kai, huh? That's a nice name!" Sakura said happily, smiling again.
"Yeah, well, you should probably head home. Aren't your parents worried about you?" Kai asked curtly.
Sakura then made a sad look.
"The truth is….. I don't have any parents." she said.
Kai raised an eyebrow.
"Well, I do have parents but… you see.. they passed away a long time ago… And umm… I have nowhere else to go." Sakura said, looking down at the ground.
Kai sighed and shook his head.
"Fine. Come with me." he said.
Sakura looked at him. "Really? Are you sure? I don't want to be a burden.." she said.
"It's fine. Now let's go before it gets late." Kai said.
"Okay!" Sakura said happily.
Kai then started walking towards his house, with Sakura following.
