Okay I lied, next chapter should be really funny. This one is pretty sad if I do say so myself.
My hand went to my eye. As if I was trying to hide it from the world, but they all had seen it.
"If I told you, then I would have to face my demons." I told him with a sigh. They all looked at me waiting for me to tell them, but I refused. I don't want to live in the past...
"If you don't tell them, then I will" I look over and saw Natsume.
"You wouldn't dare." I said glaring at her. She gave me a smirk that said 'wanna bet?'
"They need to know, it will make all of our performances better especially yours." she said. She was right, since the accident my potential went down. I sighed.
"Fine but you can't jugde me... I nearly killed someone." I said, I turned around to leave everyone not knowing about me and fearing me.
"That's not what I meant," she said "I meant your whole story." I didn't turn around, I didn't want anyone to know what happened to me. I then felt someone pull me over to the group and push me down into a sitting position. It was Kazemaru, who then sat next to me waiting for me to start. I sighed, but began.
"when I was born my mother had put me in an orphanage. She just left me there with good intentions I now realize, but I never thought that as a child. By age four I was a cynical, distrustful, rebel kid. I went to at least fifteen different orphanages, even one in Korea. I ended up in Sun Garden where I met some kids who love soccer and eventually I did too." I said smiling remembering the good times before continuing "I was there until I was six, then I met my father, but I didn't know that at the time. He talked to the man who ran the orphanage into convincing me to enter a kendo competition. Which I did and won, he then told me that he was my father and took me away from the orphanage. I was so angry that he did that, that I began to go back to being a rebel, but not as bad as before. My father took care of me until one day I was sent to the hospital, because of severe food poisoning, the first time I almost died."
I stopped to take a breath and see their reactions. Most were thoughtful others were confused.
"I was about nine when that happened. My Grandfather thought my father was unfit to raise me and took me in, where he taught me the basics of sword play. Apparently I was really good because he would always praise me. I learned various techniques with him and my levels of power went up. One day an old friend came for a visit bringing his own student, who turned out to be a cousin on my fathers side. He wasn't as good as me, but still skilled enough to hold his own against me. We had sparred for a while then took a break to chat.
He started to ask about my weaknesses which I found odd so I change topics. We kept chatting till my Grandfather said it was late and offered his friend to stay the night which he agreed to. It was midnight when it happened, I had felt someones presents in my room and as I awoke I saw the tip of their sword. I had dogged, but not quickly enough, they slashed my eye. I didn't pay attention though having my instincts kick in, so I knock the guy out. I saw it was my cousin, with realization I ran to my grandfathers room, in time to see him get taken down.
In my fury, I grabbed the nearest blade, which was Shi, and attack the man. I knew who it was, but I didn't care. I fought against him then I noticed he wasn't guarding his chest. So I took it slashing at his chest and succeeding. He fell crippling in pain. That's when the police came, it turns out that a maid for my grandfather heard the commotion and called them. Which I was thankful for. Three ambulance came with them and they loaded us up, by then I had fainted from blood loss and didn't wake up for two hours.
When I did I went to see my grandfather who was almost dead, he had lost to much blood to be saved. He told me that everything he owns goes to me (he even wrote a will) and to stay strong. That was the first time I had cried in a very long time." I told them almost in tears again but I wasn't done
"the hospital had found my parents and had them come to see me, which they did, but I wasn't happy to see them. I was too distressed and I just had found out that I was blind in my left eye." I heard gasps and looked to see everyone gaping with shocked faces. "So my parents came, fought, went to court and now they both have to take care of me. The end" I finished dramatically. They all just looked at me...
"So you're father is a bad cook too." Kazemaru said. Everyone looked at him, then I started laughing.
"You got that right, he's the worse! I swear his food had a mind if it's own." I said laughing. Everyone started laughing to, though some had looks of disgust.
"Come on! Lets play soccer!" yelled Endou, to which we happily agreed to. I was glad, they didn't think I am a killer (though I didn't kill anyone). I couldn't wait to play Soccer.
When I was thinking of how to write this I almost started to cry, but I was also laughing. I was imagining a younger Ren and it was just plain funny especially how he acts now. Like a gentleman (sometimes) he's like Allen Walker mixed Kanda Yuu! Except better ;) R&R please!
