Chapter 5: The 'Dark' Part Of The Name
Sunset, I Close My Eyes, I Pretend Everything's Alright
Amu, Ikuto, Kukai, Zuko, and Ako sat on the benches of the court. Ako was reading a book, Kukai was playing with his PSP, Zuko was winking at every sexy girl that waked by him, Ikuto was half asleep on Amus' shoulder, and Amu was blushing, but was bored. Two weeks have passed by, and today was the court date.
Unfortunately, the day after Ikuto and Kukai met, was the day Ako gathered Amu, Kukai, and Zuko to his house, to try and find a way to convince Zuko to drop the court date, and admit to his mistake to the old guy. But it turns out, Amu brought Ikuto along, so she could introduce him to Ako, and Zuko. And they, too, find out his secret, and his past, just like Kukai did the day before.
After an hour about talking about Ikuto, they tried to convince Zuko again, but he wouldn't budge, and left Akos' house angry. So that was a bust.
So here they are, everyone, here for Zuko at court. The five of them sat on a bench, awaiting there turn. Before they all got to the court house, Ikuto complained to Amu about why he had to go. And Amu replied with something that warmed Ikutos' heart.
"You're Zukos' friend, too, so you have to be there for him, just like the rest of us are doing." Was Amus' reply that convinced Ikuto to go.
And again, here they were, sitting on the bench. Ako assured each one of them to dress up for this "occasion", but nobody really didn't meet Akos' expectations.
Amu wore black-ish, gray-ish skinny jeans, with a plain black shirt, and white vest over it, and it was buttoned. Her hair was in a flirty high pony tail, that had a white X clipping the hair togehter. But some of her bangs were hovering over her eyes. She also wore a platinum bracelet that Ikuto gave her, Kukai, Zuko, and Ako. It was on her right wrist, on on her left hand, she had a leather glove, that was chained up all cool, and the glove didn't complete her fingers. She also wore whie slip on VANS.
Ikuto wore a black button up shirt, but he rolled up the sleeves a couple inches below his elbows'. The shirt wasn't even button up all the way, he had like five buttons from the top undone, and his collar was a bit messy. He also wore a white vest, and it was unbuttoned. He also had a thick belt over his shirt, and it hunged down from his waist, along with a metal chain on his left side of his hips. He wore black skinny jeans, and white VANS, just like Amus'. His hair was messy, but cool, as like he always wore it. And he also had the same platinum bracelet, on hir right wrist.
Ikuto wanted to match to with Amu, just in case you're wondering.
Kukai had a white button up shirt, and wore it just like Ikutos'. Only he had three buttons undone form the top. He wore gray skinnies, and white Nikkies. He had a necklace that hung from his neck, it was a Yin and Yang necklace. He wore the platinum bracelet that Ikuto gave her on his right wrist also. His hair was messy as ever, but looked cool, like Ikuto wore his.
Zuko didn't dress up at all. He only wore a plain tight purple shirt, with white skinny jeans. His hair was a little done, but it looked like he ruffled it up after doing his hair. He wore purple slip on VANS, that matched his shirt. And he, too, was wearing the platinum bracelet that Ikuto has given to him, on his right wrist.
Unlike everybody else, Ako actually dressed up. He was wearing a white button up shirt like Kukais, but only his was buttoned up all the way, except the top button, and the sleeves were all the way down. His collar was not messy, and had a black vest that was buttoned up all the way. He wore decent black dress pants, and not skinny jeans like the rest. He wasn't wearing VANS, or Nikkies like the others either. He had black dress shoes, laces tied up nice and neatly. BUT, he was wearing the platinum bracelet, that Ikuto has given him, too, over the sleeves of the shirt.
Drowning In Anger, From All These Lies
Another hour passed by, and everybody was still waiting on the bench bored. Ako continued to read his book, Kukai continued to play his PSP, wich got many complaints from the people around him. But Kukai just laughed. Zuko leaned his head back, and was asleep, and drool was pouring out of his mouth. Ikuto was awake, but refused to take his head away from Amus' shoulder.
They were all in their own little worlds, until the sound of the hammer thingy from the judge slam against the desk, snap them out of it. "Break time!" He exclaimed. Everybody from the benches got up, and stretched, and some left the room for a bathroom break or something. Zuko woke up, and stretched his arms out.
"Is it our turn?" He asked while his mouth was yawning.
"No." Ako replied, still reading the book.
"It's breaktime." Ikuto said with a bored tone, head still on shoulder. Zuko turned his head over to Ikuto.
"Aww.. Aren't you guys being all lovey dovey and shit." Amu blushed, and Ikuto just chuckled.
"Zuko, get me a snack." Kukai told Zuko, not looking up from his game.
"Get it yourself lazy ass."
"You're the one who fell asleep." Kukai reached into his pocket, and pulled out some dollar bills.
"Here." He stuck his hand full of cash out to Zuko. "Buy something for all of us."
"Fine." Zuko groaned. "Thank you." Ako thanked the both of them.
"Thanks." Amu did also.
"Whatever." Ikuto said with his bored tone. In return, got a light slap on his legs from Amu. But Ikuto chuckled. He lifted his head up from her shoulder, and pressed his mouth against Amus' ear. This startled Amu, and increased her blushing.
"You owe me." He whispered seductively into her ear.
"W-What do you mean?" She whispered.
"I had to wake up early for this. And I'm dying of sleep right now. So I wont let you sleep tonight." Amus' blushing increased even more.
"Y-You think I w-wanna be here?" She whispered again. "If it weren't for Zuko, we wouldn't be here.." She sighed. Her stuttering went away.
"Here." Zuko walked up to Amu, and handed her a bag of mini Reeses. Amu looked at the bag for a quick second, but then shot her hands up at Zuko, and grabbed his shirt. She pulled him down, until his face was only a couple centimeters away from her face.
"Zuko.." She trailed off, with anger in her voice. "Lets just drop this! Please! I REALLY don't want to be here."
"For fuck sake, no! I'm gonna win dammit! And what? No 'Oh thank you Zuko!' for me?" He smirked.
"But Zuko!" She whined, she went into her little sister act. She started to shake him around. Zuko just laughed. Everybody in the court room started looking at them, like they were crazy. Amu let go of Zuko. Zuko sighed, relieved that Amu didn't get to far into that. But she shot her hands up again, and grabbed his shirt, and brought him closer again.
"You're taking me out shopping tomorrow for this." She was obviously pissed off.
"Fine." Zuko said bluntly. "Now.." He trailed off. "Where's my 'thank you'?" He smirked again. Amu held up the bag of chocolates, and her face went all sparkly.
"Arigatou! Nii-san!" Even her voice was different.
"Awww." Zuko spread his arms out, and walked closer to her. But Amu socked him in the stomach, before he could hug her. Zuko hugged his stomach, and doubled over in pain.
"That's what you get for bringing us into this." She held her fist up. Kukai bursted out in laughter, and Ako slightly chuckled. Zuko got up from his position, and socked Kukai in the arm. But Kukai kept laughing. He threw Kukais' snack at him, and politely handed Ako his snack. "Thank you." He thanked, as he got back into reading his book. Zuko went back to his seat, with a pouty face on.
'Damn, doesn't her attitude turn me on..' Ikuto thought to himself.
Ikuto opened the bag of chocolates, and reached for one.
"Amu." He called out to her. She turned to face his direction. Ikuto pointed to a chocolate that was resting on his tounge. Amu wasn't so sure what he meant at first, but the her face went red when she got the point.
"W-What?" She asked even though she knew what he meant.
"Lets eat this chocolate together." He smirked.
"N-No thanks! I'll just get one from the bag." She added a nervous laugh afterwards. She reached inside the bag, and stuggled to grab a chocolate. Ikuto chuckled at the position she was in. And again, she was confused. She looked over at where her hand was, and it was inside the bag, and the bag was resting on top of his cock. And that position looked wrong. Amu quickly took her hand out of the bag, and held it tightly as if someone bit her hand, hard. Her face went red like always.
"Arent you horny?" Ikuto teased.
"W-What? Im not! P-Pervert!" 'Damn my stuttering.'
"Awww, I'm just playing." He brought his kitty eyes out. He grabbed a chocolate, and brought it close to her face.
"I'm not eating that." She pouted, while turning her head a different direction to avoid contact with his hand.
"Please Amu." Everytime he emphasized her name, it made her heart speed up. She turned her head back around, and caught him doing kitty eyes at her. She couldn't resist that face. She opened her mouth, and bit down on his fingers to get the chocolate. She purposely left a lot of saliva on his fingers to piss him off. But it bakcfired on her. He brought his fingers up to his face, and licked the saliva off.
Amus' face went beat red again, for like, the billionth time that day. She didn't know if she should be disgusted, or offended. But one thing she knew, that turned her on.
I Can't Pretend Everything's Alright
"Case 83!" Exclaimed the judge. Zuko stood up from the bench, and walked over to the front. It was finally time for Zukos' turned, but oh how his friends doubted he would win. But to make up for it, they cheered when he got up with a couple, 'Go Zuko!' and a whistle from Amu.
After all that court crap happened, Zuko and the old accent dude were now against eachother. But like everybody in the room knew, except Zuko, Zuko was loosing. After hearing about the case, the jury came to a decision, and found Zuko guilty.
The judge or whatever slammed his hammer thingy down on the table.
"Zuko, you will pay a fine of $300 for this mans repairment of his car."
"What!" Zuko yelled, obviously angry. "I only left like a couple of dents on this guys car!"
"Well, its up to the man if he wants to continue with this case." And with that, everybody turned their heads to the accent man. He hesitated before answering.
"Fine. I will drop the charges." Zuko was shocked, but happy. But Amu, Ikuto, Kukai, and Ako were only shocked.
"T-Thank you! I'm very sorry for the inconvenience!" Zuko bowed his head.
"No no, it's my fault for getting carried away." The accent man bowed his head.
"Well it seems as though this case is closed." The judge slammed the hammer thingy again.
Kukai facepalmed, and he did it so hard, that you could here the noise throughout the room. Amu gripped her hair, and Ikuto sighed. Ako, on the other hand, kept the same shocked expression. They all stood up, and exited the building with Zuko.
"YOU FUCKING BASTARD!" Amu gripped Zukos shirt, and shook him around.
"YOU MADE US WAIT ALL MORNING AND AFTERNOON FOR THAT!" Kukai yelled.
"Piece of shit.." Ikuto muttered, but everybody caught it.
Everybody was angry at Zuko. But Ako still hasn't said anything. Amu released her grip on Zukos shirt, and face palmed. Then finally, Ako punched Zuko across the face, wich shocked everybody by the way.
"What was that for?" Zuko asked, holding his face. When Ako got violent, everyone knew it meant serious business.
"You bastard. We tried to talk you out of it two weeks ago, and you woulnd't agree. And you drop the charges on the day of the court? You made us wait all damn morning, and damn afternoon for your stupid 'argument' that you prepared?"
Zuko stayed silent, realizing his actions were annoying.
"I'm sorry guys.. But how about I make up for it? Huh? Dinner at my restaraunt." He slightly smiled a crooked smile. Everyone sighed, but then agreed, and soon, they were off to his restaraunt.
Please Don't Let Me Fall Forever, Can You Tell Me It's Over?
"Ah, Master Zuko. You're back again. What may I get you." Sebastian asked the teen.
"The usua-" He got cut off by Kukai slightly hitting his arm.
"What?" He asked.
"We have a new member, duh." Kukai pointed over to Ikuto, and Ikuto just sat quietly, looking at the menu.
"The usual." Zuko repeated. "Ikuto, what do you want?" Ikuto took a short moment deciding.
"I'll take number 5." He said as he finally closed up his menu and handed it over to Sebastian.
"Very well Master Ikuto. I will return shortly." Sebastian took a bow before leaving.
"Nice." Ikuto said as he layed his face on his left hand. "Butler huh? So does that mean you're a rich boy?"
"It's a long story." Zuko said after a sigh. Ikuto reached over to grab a breadstick that was in a little basket in the middle of the table.
"I have time." He said as he took a bite.
"Uhhh.. Well-"
"What? We're friends, right?" Zuko hesitated before answering his question.
"Yeah, of course. But.."
"But..." Ikuto repeated, gesturing for Zuko to go on. 'He did the same thing to me that night two weeks ago..' Amu thought. 'Maybe that's just the way he gets people to talk.'
"I guess it's time for me to tell you my story." Zuko said with sad eyes. The table went silent, as everybody, especially Ikuto, was ready to listen. Amu, Kukai, and Ako have heard his story several times, but they felt like they needed to hear it again.
There's A Hate Inside Of me Like Some Kind Of Monster
"I was about seven years-old, and I was walking down the a field of flowers, holding hands with my grandpa." A slight smile appeared on Zukos' face.
"It was the day after school ended for summer break, and my family and I decided to go relax at a faraway park from here. It was my favorite place to be at, especially with my grandpa." A moment of silence passed by.
"But what I didn't know..." He trailed off. "We were being chased." Zukos' eyes went teary, and his vision was blurred.
"These two guys, that hated my father, came chasing us. So my parents and grandpa thought it would be safe for us to be as far away from home as possible.."
"Why did they hate your father?" Ikuto asked, as he leaned in a little bit closer.
".. 'Cause my dad, he turned the two guys into jail one time, when I was like six I think. But after two months they broke out, and searched for my dad."
"What did the two guys do?" Ikuto asked another question.
"They were robbing a group of old people, they beat them down, and were gathering their belongings, checking for cash, and my dad passed by, called the cops, and beat them down. Soon the cops came and sent them away to jail, and the old people were safe. But when they broke out, they sent a threatening letter to my dad, saying, 'One of the people you love will die.' " Another moment of silence passed by.
"So my dad did all he could to protect us. But after school ended for me, he decided it was a good time to leave the house for a while. So he took us to that park, that little park that no one knew about. I thought they were taking me there to reward me for my hard work in school, but it was to protect us." A few tears fled down Zukos' cheeks.
"And while I was holding hands with my grandpa, I heard a gun shot.." More tears.
"I didn't know what it was, so I turned around, and I saw those guys, and they were trying to push my mom and dad into a black van. But then I felt a drop on my forehead, and when I looked up.." More tears.
"My grandpa was shot, right in the middle of his chest. Were his heart is.. He collapsed onto the ground, and the next thing I knew, I saw cop cars pull up, and shoot the two bad guys that were trying to take away my mom and dad. My mom and dad were rescued, and the two guys were sent to jail again."
I Tried To Save You, But I Can't Find The Answer
"Grandpa! Grandpa!" The little boy shook his grandfather to wake him up. His hands were covered in blood, but the little boy didn't care.
"Grandpa!" The tears he was holding back were now flowing down his face. He wrapped his arms around his grandfathers neck, and sobbed.
"I love you grandpa.." Were his final words before a cop came and picked him up.
"I'm sorry little guy, but you can't see this." The little boy struggled, and tried to get out of his grip. But he failed.
"Grandpa!" He screamed as he was being taken away from the scene. He reached his hands out, as if he was reaching for his grandpas' hand, but nobody grabbed his hand.
Another moment of silence passed by.
"That bullet was meant for me." Zuko said bluntly. "But I guess that asshole didn't have enough strength to shoot a little boy." His tears stopped, and he wiped his tears away.
"Zuko." Ikuto started. "I'm... I'm sorry I made you bring that up." Zuko smiled at Ikuto, and lightly punched his shoulder.
"Friends are suppose to know eachother. It was time.. For you to hear my story. And now it's out. So don't worry about it." Ikuto smiled back.
"My grandpa, was important to me. Since my dad was always working, my grandpa was there to cheer me up.. He always put a smile on my face, and he would play with me all the time." Amu scooted closer to Zuko, and petted his hand, and held it, too, for comfort. He turned his head towards her, and smiled. And vice versa.
"I just wish my dad had enough courage to face me. We don't really.. talk anymore, not since that day."
"Why?" Ikuto asked.
"I.." Zuko trailed off. "I don't even know. But I hope one day, we can go back."
"And I'm sure you guys will." Amu smiled again at Zuko.
"Thanks." Zuko felt better, knowing that his friends were there for him.
"Now it's my turn." Kukai said. Everybody turned their heads towards Kukai.
"What?" Ako asked.
"It's my turn to tell my story."
"Kukai.. You don't have to-" Kukai cut Ikuto off.
"I want to." A few seconds passed by, and none of them spoke. Until Ikuto finally answered.
"Ok." He smiled at Kukai. And Kukai gave him a thumbs up.
I'm Holding On To You, I'll Never Let Go
"I had a big family. Me, five brothers, a father, and a mother." Kukai started off.
"And we were happy together. But one thing I disliked was that my dad sometimes boozed to much." 'Oh God.' Ikuto thought.
"And one day, my dad took us to a soccer game. Japan versus Mexico. I was really excited, since I really like soccer. I'm actually captain of the soccer team."
"Really? I thought you would only be in a band." Ikuto said in a bit of shock.
"No, soccer is another passion of mine. But the band comes first." He slightly smiled.
"But... So we went to a soccer game. Japan lost, but I was completely fine with it, because I was with my family. But my mom was working late that night, so it was just the guys. And my dad wasn't too happy about Japan losing, so he went to a bar after the game, and he made us wait in the car." Ikuto bit his lip, he had a pretty good idea of what was gonna happen next.
"He was in there for hours. And when he came out, he was drunk. A bar tender tried to stop him from driving, but my dad said he was fine. And so he drove off, drunk, with the five of us in the car. And the next thing I knew, I was waking up in the middle of the street with a massive headache. I thought it was a dream at first.. but when I looked around, I just saw my brothers and my dad on the ground." Kukais' eyes started getting teary.
"The side of my head was bleeding, because a chunk of glass managed to break through my skin, but I didn't care. I got up, and I ran over to my brothers and my dad.."
I Need You With Me As I Enter The Shadows
"Kaidou! Shuusui! Unkai! Rento!" A little brown hair boy yelled as he ran over to their dead bodies. His vision went blurry, and he was sweating hot because of the flames from the the wrecked, flipped over car. He shook each one of them, praying they would wake up.
"HELP!" He screamed at the top of his lungs. He looked around, and he saw flashing red and blue lights come up the street. "HELP!" He screamed again.
He looked around, and saw his dad trying to sit up.
"Poppa!" The little brown hair boy ran over to his not-so-drunk-anymore dad.
"Kukai.." He trailed of. "I'm sorry.." Tears fled down the mans face.
"Poppa.." The the little brown hair boy started to cry. He fell on his knees, and gripped his hair. He started shaking, until he screamed to the sky.
"NII-SANS!" His tears fled out, and the dripping blood stained his clothes, as he heard the sirens get louder.
"But hey, things happen. People die everyday right? And someone gets hurts, physically and/or emotionally.." Kukais' voice cracked, as he held his tears back, turning his head towards another direction so nobody would notice. But they all did.
"And God said it was my turn on that day. He gave me this scar," He pushed the hair on the side of his head back, and revealed a scar, "Yeah, he gave me a scar, but.. He took my brothers lives away..." He started making sobbing noises, as tears flowed down his face.
"They could've gotten a scar, too, but no. He just had to take my brothers lives away." Kukai wiped his eyes. And his voice went back to normal.
"Well I hope he's damn happy. He better have my brothers up there." Kukai looked up at the ceiling, and his mind went blank. Amu held back her tears, and got up from her chair. She went behind Kukais' chair, but he didn't notice since he left Earth. She slightly smiled, and blowed on his hair. She then grabbed his hair, and started ruffling it around.
"Nom nom nom! I'm a monster! Grrr! I'm gonna eat your hair!" She started rubbing her face up against his hair, and Kukai snapped back to reality. 'What the hell?' Ikuto thought. 'Is she high?'
Kukai started laughing, and the tears went away.
"Thanks." Kukai was back to his old self. But then he went serious.
"But like Zukos' situation: I wish MY dad had enough courage to face me. He thinks my brothers death is his fault, but it's not. But since hearing it from me isn't good enough, he stays locked in his room all day." Kukai looked down at the floor.
"My mom has trouble getting him out of bed.. But ever since that day, things changed. But I keep hoping that one day, he'll come back to his old self... Because no one blames him for his sons' death."
"I'll pray for you." Amu smiled at Kukai, reassuring him that she was still by his side. And he smiled back.
"Now.." Kukai spread his arms out.
"Ako.." Kukai emphasized.
"It's okay, he doesn't ha-" Ako cut Ikuto off.
"Yeah.. yeah I do actually. We all know your past, so you need to know ours." Ako interlocked his fingers.
"But-"
"We're friends, Ikuto." Ako smiled. Ikuto felt warm. He felt like he's known these guys his whole life. They were friendly to him, and let him join the family.
"Yeah.. Yeah, we are." Ikuto returned the smile. Ako cleared his throat.
Caught In The Darkness, I Go Blind
"I grew up in the ghetto part of this city. I had an alcoholic uncaring mother, and a druggie dad that disappeared when I was eight years-old. My mom abused me so much, she always took her anger out on me. And she didn't even love me. She only saw me as a tool for money... That's all I ever was to her."
"One day, she stole money from the bank, and told the cops that it was me. So I had to run for three weeks, hiding in alleys, and living off of trash food. I wasn't safe anywhere. Then one day, my mom showed up in the alley, and tricked me into believing she was taking me home, when she really turned me into the cops. I had to fight off everyone of them, so I wouldn't get in the car. And I ran off again."
"After that, I shut my self from the world, and didn't trust anyone. Two weeks later, I ended up running into some annoying fucks."
A spiky hair guy with black hair stood in an alley way, leaning up against the wall, looking up at the sunset colored sky. His hand were in his pockets, and his eyes were dead. No feeling, no sadness, his eyes were impossible to read.
A group of guys in their late teen years, all wearing the color red, walked in the alleyway, laughing, and some of them carried booze. They all stopped when they saw the spiky hair guy staring at the sky. They all decided to have some fun, so they walked over to him.
"Hey nigga, what you doin'?" One of them asked. Spiky rolled his eyes, and turned his head to face them. Eyes' still dead. But he didn't respond.
"The fuck are you doin' here?" A shorter one asked. Spiky stayed in the same position, still not responding.
"You want some booze?" One of them held up a bottle of jack.
"Or weed?" Another one held up a blunt.
"Now now, all of you shit heads needa calm down." One guy came through the crowd. He was wearing the same thing as everybody else, but he had a black bandana, instead of a red one like everybody else. He seemed to be the leader. His voice was raspy. He stared at Spiky, while Spiky still kept the same face on.
"Eyy, kid, you seem pretty tough, wanna join the gang?" He said as he held up his arms a bit high, gesturing to the guys behind him. Spiky still didn't respond. He turned his back, and started walking away. The leader became furious, and took the bottle of jack from one of his followers, and ran towards the spiky hair dude. He raised his arms high, and smashed it against Spikys' head. The leader backed off, and waited to see him fall, but was shocked when he didn't.
Spiky stood still, but his head was a bit lowed then it was before. Blood ran down his face, and his neck. Spiky finally turned around, and started walking slowly to the leader.
"Hehe," The leader smirked, "Get him." He said as he stood back while everybody else went after spiky hair boy.
The leader thought he had him, but damn, he was wrong. Spiky beat down the first guy, and took the knife from the second one. And stabbed everybody that came after him. One by one, they all fell, until the leader was left. Even though the spiky hair guy was furious, his face expression stayed the same, and his eyes were still dead. He picked up a bottle of jack that one guy had in his hand, and slowly started walking towards the leader.
The leader stood still, and was raging up at that point. He pulled up his shirt, and it revealed a gun that was stuck into the middle of his pants. But Spiky didn't stop. He kept walking towards him, and then the leader had it. He took out the gun, and fired, but the next thing he knew, Spiky dodged the bullet, and ran over to the leader. He smashed the bottle of jack right on his face, which caused him to fall down. His face bled, and some chunks of glass was stuck on his face, but did Spiky care? No. He took the gun from the leader, and walked away.
The next day, after the fight, the spiky black hair guy hung around a park, after curfew. He sat on the branch of a tree, and stared up at the sky. He hid the gun in his pants, like the leader did, and the knife was in his socks, hiding the evidence of weapons. He heard sirens, and saw the mixing colors of red and blue in the sky. The cop cars stopped in front of the park, and cops popped out, with guns in the air, and yelling, "FREEZE!"
Spiky felt like he needed to give in. He didn't want to keep running from the cops, or getting into gang fights. So jumped down from the tree, pulled out the gun and knife, and dropped them on the grass. He held up his hands up in surrender, as the headlights of a couple dozen cars blinded him.
One cop ran over to him, and pushed him down to the ground, and arrested him.
But Can You Help Me Find My Way Out?
"He doesn't want to talk." A woman in her early twenties told a cop.
"Well, get him to talk!" The cop raised his voice.
"I tried everything I could, but he wont budge. Forcing things out of him is not the right way to do it. He needs to come out, and tell his story himself." The cop sighed.
"For God sake, he's only ten years-old, offer him candy!" The cop said, but it made him feel stupid. The woman crossed her arms and mentally sighed. Yes, Spiky was only ten years-old, but he took the appearance of a 15 year-old.
"This ten year-old kid took down 27 gang members in under five minutes. This has to do with fury and anger, and hatred in his life. So I guess it would be best for you, to bring out your past." The cop slightly tapped the woman in her twenties on the shoulder, with the a file of the boy.
This time the woman sighed out loud. "I guess it would be the best thing to do." She sayed as she uncrossed her arms.
"I'm going back in." She sayed as she went back into the room with the little boy sitting, with the same expression as he always had.
Nobody Hears Me, I Suffer The Silence
The little boy was sent to jail for his crimes. He wouldn't talk even after the woman opened up. Everyday, he would just lay on his bunk bed, with his arms crossed behind his head. Even though he was the youngest there, nobody would mess with him. Everybody there knew what he did with the gang fight, and his other crimes, so they were rather quite scared. But the one who wasn't scared was a foreign guy named Pablo, who shared the same cell as him. Pablo understood the little boys pain, because he went through the same thing as him. Though he was in jail this time for being caught smoking weed outside of a kid store.
Pablo walked into his cell, and greeted the little boy. And the boy just lazily waved, but didn't bother to look at him. Pablo sat on the same bunk bed as the little boy.
"Hey, it's dinner time, you wanna go and eat?" Pablo asked the little boy. But the little boy just shook his head no as he sat up.
"I don't blame you, the food here is terrible, it taste like a donkeys' ass!" Pablo joked. Spiky just laughed to himself silently. Pablo was really the only one who was able to get Spiky to interact. So they had a close bond together, but Pablo has never heard him talk.
While they were laughing, the woman from before was observing from far away. Then she finally knew what to do.
Can You Tell Me It's Over Now?
"Pablo, please sit here." She gestured to a seat across from the little boy. They were back into that room, back into that cop room, where they have that mirror on the wall, but the cops can see and hear everything through the window.
Hours passed by, and the woman tried to get the boy to open up, but he didnt. Pablo just sat back, glaring at the both of them. Another hour passed, and the woman was desperate. Pablo got up from his seat, and walked over to the little boy. The boy turned his body a bit, and looked at Pablo. He bend down on his knees, to look at him eye to eye, and put his hand on his shoulder.
"Mijo, can you not see what's happening here? This nice lady is trying to help you. If you tell her everything, you will be able to feel better afterwards, and get help, maybe even get out of here, too. She is here to help you.." The little boys' eyes went from dead, to alive. His eyes widened, and his vision went blurry.
"But.." He started. Pablo and the woman were shocked. That was the first time they have ever heard him talk. "I don't want to leave Pablo. I like being here with you." Pablo angrily shook him a bit.
"No mijo! I don't want you to stay here! You have a future out there, outside of these bars, and this lady will help you along the way. So please mijo.. let everything out." The little boy had tears going down his face. But refused to cry.
"Let go.." Pablo whispered. The little boy looked all around the room, and jumped out of the chair. He surprised the lady, and Pablo. He ran over to the door, and started to bang on it, trying to hold back his tears.
"LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT! GET ME THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!" He screamed at the top of his lungs, as he continued to bang on the door. Pablo ran over to him, and grabbed him.
"LET GO!" He yelled.
"NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!" He repeated fast as he tried to get out of his grip. The lady started crying, and she calmly walked over to the scene.
"Let go.." She said in a sweet voice. The boy stopped struggling, but still held his tears back.
"Mijo.." Pablo caught his attention. "Let go.." He said one last time.
The little boy, started bursting out. Screaming, crying, sobbing. Pablo just lightly smiled, as a tear rolled down his cheek. "Mijo.." He whispered to himself. He wrapped his arms around the little screaming boy. And the lady ran over and joined.
"I will help you.. no matter what.." She whispered into his ear.
There's A Hate Inside Of Me Like Some Kind Of Monster
A month later, the little boy was walking out out of the jail building, holding hands with the lady from before. She fixed his papers, and adopted him.
"Bye Mijo! Have a good life!" Pablo yelled out to him, waving him goodbye. The little boy turned his head, and smiled the
biggest smile he had ever smiled.
I Tried To Save You But I Can't Find The Answer
Some tears rolled down Akos' face, and everybody smiled at him. Amu got up from her seat, when behind Ako, and hugged him around his neck, and layed her head on his left shoulder.
He smiled, and felt warm because of her comfort.
He wiped his tears off, and smiled.
"Did you ever get hurt getting into a fight?" Ikuto asked.
"Yeah, just this scar." He pointed to a not really noticeable mark a little bit above his left eyebrow.
"It was bigger, and redder when I was little, but through the years, it started to fade away."
"I have a scar, too." Ikuto ran his fingers through the right side of his hair, and revealed at big scar. Amu walked over to him, and softly petted it.
"Oh my God, what happened? Are you okay?" Ikuto slightly chuckled.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Rin gave me this one day when I was a minute late completing the assignment." Amu hugged Ikuto tight. And he hugged back. Kukai, Ako, and Zuko smiled at the happy couple.
"I guess I should tell my story.." She said, letting go of Ikuto. Ikuto smiled.
She sat back down at her seat, and took a deep breath before starting.
I'm Holding Onto You, I'll Never Let Go
"I have this little sister, Ami, and both my parents, and we were a happy family, but after a while Ami was born, my parents started to have problems.. I don't understand why they fought, but they just did.. And only a couple times, my dad would beat my mom, and me. And leave us heavy brused. And then, when Ami was three, she started to think all the fighting was her fault."
"Daddy, I'm sowwy, pwease stop beating mommy and nee-chan.." The little girl tugged her dads' pants.
"Ami! Stay out of this!" The dad yelled at the little girl. The little girl started to cry, but refused to give up.
"No!" She yelled back. The dad looked at her with wide eyes, and an angry face.
"No Ami!" The mom, and a pinkette yelled, beaten up.
"You're fighting becwause of me! And I dwon't like it! Pwease stop it! Pwease! Or..." She trailed off.
"Or I will kill myself!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. The pinkette started to cry, and so did the mom. The dad stood there, shocked, and scared. He started to cry, and dropped on his knees.
"I'm sorry.." He whispered. The mom and pinkette scooted close to the dad.
"I'm sorry." He repeated, but only louder this time.
"I don't want my little angel to kill herself. And I don't want to keep beating my beautiful wife and daughter. I'm sorry, I didn't know what came over me.. Please forgive me..." His voiced cracked a lot, trying to hold the tears back, but failed. The mom, pinkette, and little girl all smiled, and hugged the dad. Group hug.
I Need You With Me As I Enter The Shadows
"After that, we went back to a happy family, but..." She trailed off.
"I lost my feelings for them."
"What do you mean you lost your feelings?" Ikuto asked.
"I mean.. Well, one day, I just woke up, and lost all my feelings of love for them.. I mean, I know I love them, but I don't feel anything. So I asked to move out. And they let me." Ikuto scooted closer to Amu.
"But, I know I will get those feelings back again, I just don't know when. But for now, the only people I love are you guys." She said with a big smile on her face. Ikuto found this to be sad, loosing your feelings for your family. But he returned the smile, even though inside, he had a sad look on his face.
"Best friends forever!" Kukai shouted!
"YESH!" Zuko yelled after.
Sebastian walked over with there plates of food, and set them on the table.
"Thank you Sebastian!" They all thanked loudly. Sebastian smiled, and bowed, then walked back to the kitchen.
"Sebastian is special, because he's always been my butler. He was my fathers butler, too. He was there for me, when my grandpa got killed. He's always had my back, and for that, I love him a lot. He remind me of my grandpa." Zuko smiled.
"A toast to Sebastian!" Kukai shouted again, raising his glass.
"Same." Ako raised his glass. Amu and Ikuto raised theirs, too.
"Sebastian!" They all cheered.
"And a toast to our friendship!" Amu shouted this time.
"FRIENDSHIP!" They all shouted. Amu and Ikuto slipped their hands under the table, and held eachothers hands.
I'm Holding Onto You
Zuko stepped out of his car, staring out to the field of flowers. The moon was shining bright. He ran over to the middle of the field, and kneeled down. He reached into his bag, and took out a framed picture. A picture that he drew when he was little. A picture of him and his grandpa holding hands, and he brought out another one, but a bit smaller, of a picture of him and his family. This one actually taken from a camera.
He placed them neatly, and nicely on the gravestone, and set down some flowers. He rubbed his hand on the grave, and smiled. Tears started rolling down his face, but he kept his smile.
Here Lies Shizuka Ryuichi
A Loved One
1937- 2002
YOU WILL BE MISSED
I'm Holding Onto You
Kukai layed down, in the middle of the street, staring at the sky. The sound of cars passing by were so close. And it was because he layed down in the middle of the road, where all the cars were dodging him. He layed next to the plaques that were on the ground. The mayor of the city was nice enough to have a special area, where only Kukai and his family could lay down and rest. Next to where his brothers died. Plaques were actually inside the ground, but you could read them. Each one 10 by 8, with the names of the loved ones carved into it.
On each plaque it said the same thing, except the names.
The first plaque said:
GOD BLESS
Souma Kaidou
Second.
GOD BLESS
Souma Shuusui
Third.
GOD BLESS
Souma Unkai
And fourth.
GOD BLESS
Souma Rento
There's A Hate Inside Of Me Like Some Kind Of Monster
Ako sat on Pablos' bed, inside his cell. The guards outisde, making sure Pablo wouldn't attempt to escape. But since Pablo never tried, they relaxed and layed back, unworried.
Ako smiled at the ill Pablo. He had an oxygen tank beside his bed, and tubes in his nose, pumping air every ten seconds. Ako held his tears back, it pained him to see Pablo in this position, and Akos' foster mom was right behind him, actually crying. Apparently, she failed at trying to be tough. But looking at Ako trying to be tough, and Momoko crying made Pablo smile.
I Need You With Me As I Enter The Shadows
Amu layed on her bed, with a blank expression, looking at a picture frame of her and her family. Ami was smiling with her eyes closed, she was jumping, and her dad was being a big baby, scared that she might hurt herself doing that. Her mom, was smiling, with her eyes closed, and her mouth open, trying not to laugh at the scene. And Amu was just next to her sister, bursting out in laughther.
Ikuto was laying outside in the balcony, Amus' balcony actually, and yes, she knew he was out there. He wasn't doing anything. Unlike everybody else, he was just laying there, doing nothing. Everybody was strolling through memory lane, but Ikutos' memories were to painful to remember.
Major: OMFG! SORRY FOR TAKING SOOO LONG! DDDDX
Ikuto: FAIL.. AGAIN!
Amu: Be nice.
Ikuto: Is Momoko Akos' foster mom?
