Chapter 2:

Yoh pov

School had finished and now Tamao and Lufix and I were walking home. Tamao had always gone early to school because she felt that she was in the way of me and my brother on what you call brother bonding. After school Tamao either goes to me or Lufix's house. Lufix was going to coming over later after I asked my parents about going to Tokyo. Tamao today was going to Lufix's house because she forgot her pencil case there yesterday when he was helping her with her homework. I was suddenly disturbed by someone yelling at me. Lufix was yelling at me "Bye Yoh!" "Bye Lufix! See Ya Tamao! See you guys later tonight!" I saw them go off and I continued my way home I predicted that Lufix was going to accuse me on daydreaming about oranges. For some reason no matter how hard I tried today whenever I try to think about something I got this headache I told my friends at lunch but they just said it was from the hangover. Maybe that's why I have been acting differently today. I was praying that it was going to end by the end of school but it just stayed put. I started to think how much did they spike the punch and how much did I drink! "Ahhhhhh!" I just burst out a scream and after I let out my anger I felt a bit better. A little relieved. All I hoped is that my friends did not hear that. It went sunny as soon as I thought of that. "That was odd" ah well not my fault what happens, happens. I continued my way home singing a little song to myself.

Hao pov

I awoke again feeling a big lump on my head. I had to reassure myself if I had amnesia but I was safe again. The sense was not knocked out of me. I checked over my wounds and found that someone with care had actually fixed them up disinfected them and everything I checked twice to make sure it was not a hallucination. Usually they just brought me to my room and left me to tend to my own wounds. I guess I was bleeding all over the floor they could not help it. It irritated me how much my body and soul was aching.

My body from wounds and soul from the harsh words of Keiko. "I was an accident huh?"I remembered the exact words that she had told me. I got up and attempted to change into another pair of pants so Yoh did not see the blood stains. All I could find was this t-shirt that was white. It wasn't long but it would do for now. It covered some of the blood stains that were along the waist of my pants. The leg blood stains I would have to change the pants I don't even know how there were bloodstains on my leg part of my pants.

"Oh ya that bastard father of mien he got me on the waist that's why I can't move very well. It must have dripped onto my pants then when I blacked out I fell on my front creating a blotch." I made the scene in my head calculating everything after that I got up put on my shirt with great difficulty thanks once again to father. I gave a humble bow. "Thank you Father you are the best at incapacitating your elder son how do you feel?" I held out my hand to no one and expected and answer but there was no one.

"I feel sad and pain of resentment." I gasped someone had been watching me I gave a low growl out of my throat and turned and glared at the person in the doorway. "Keiko." I gave a sharp tone of voice at my mother. It always bugged her when I called her by her real name instead of mom. I usually called her mom but when I was pissed off I called everyone by there real name. "Hao my son I would like to talk to you."

She took a hesitated step forward like I was going to bite her and pull off her foot and eat it like some animal. "Keiko I am not going to kill you just because you enter my room and since when are you afraid of me?" I had read her mind and sensed her fear of me when I was angry. Usually Mikihisa came to see me and beat the shit out of me but usually that just made me angrier. This is a switch of Keiko coming to try and calm me. Keiko came over after closing the door halfway so it wouldn't lock and sat on my bed and motioned for me to come and sit next to her. I came and she started to talk.

"Hao my son I did not mean any of those things that I told you. I am very happy for having you I may not show it sometimes but the love is there." I sat there trying to understand her. "My son, I was zoning out down there and did not see what was going on I zoned in when you were arguing to go to the school and I lost control. Like mother like son."

She couldn't help but laugh at her own joke and I smiled at my mother laughing. "So Hao what happened between you and your father?" I simply stated, "I came downstairs made the breakfast and your parents start asking me stuff and when I turn around to go upstairs you husband stabbed me in the shoulder and twisted it around so it drew more blood and was harder to heal. Then Mikihisa started telling how I am stupid and sending me to school in Tokyo then you came in and said it was for my own good and I am a bad role model for Yoh." I lowered my head in shame my hair coered my eyes of no emotion. "Then he cut open my stomach and I blacked out from blood loss. Do you know who bandaged me up? No one has ever bandaged me up before usually I have to do it myself" I saw her lower her head in shame "I was the one who bandaged you up so I could prove my love to you Hao I hope you don't hate me." I looked directly at her jet black eyes that were focused on the floor

"The reason that I said all that stuff is because … well sometimes when I see Yoh he looks so un-happy and everything. Then a few days ago I let Mikihisa persuade me into hating you for it." She then decided to look at me "Besides Hao you are an important member of this family you keep us living with your powers and your work at the grocery store at moving boxes." I looked away. "So are you still ending me off to Tokyo?"

"Yes Hao but its only for a year you are very smart you can handle yourself" From those words the doorbell rang, Yoh was home Keiko got off the bed and began walking to the door. I asked hurriedly, "Why do you love Yoh more and not us equal?" She turned and looked at me with the most hurt eyes. "I can't show it but I love you equal" "Are you going to tell Yoh that you are sending me away? Also when I am going?" All she replied was, "Yes Hao we have to let Yoh know and you are leaving sometime tomorrow."

"Oh and also what's for dinner tonight Hao?" "Rice balls" and with that she left the room and walked down the stairs to greet her younger son. I remained on the bed all bandaged. After a few minutes of sitting there I painfully stood up and walked down the stairs to get started on the rice balls. When I had entered the room the family was sitting in the discussion format. I just walked by trying not to limp from my weak waist that was not supporting me right. It felt like my guts were going to come out.

When I got to the counter I listened to there conversation. Yoh "So um well Lufix and Tamao are coming over tonight and I was to go to Tokyo high school with him and Tamao is that possible?" Keiko, "Well this is a turn of events we were planning to send Hao there tomorrow." "YOU WERE GOING TO SEND HIM! This is perfect I can go also
