Fall Like The Last Petal Of A Flower And Bring The Rain.
Lena smiled happily as Gin stared back at her silently.
Kowa had unknowingly left as he headed toward someone else's house.
Gin looked down to see the black clothes that Lena was wearing, and she smiled as she pushed him back down onto the bed.
She calmly wetted a cloth and placed it on his forehead.
"You should rest for a little bit longer." She said, and Gin nodded as he started to stare at the ceiling.
"So do you have any family left?" Lena asked after a moment of silence, and Gin paused before answering.
"Well, I think my two brothers survived, but I'm not sure…"
"You have a brother?"
"Yeah, their names are Light and Leaf." Gin said as he smiled slightly.
"Knowing them, they are probably already healed and fighting."
Lena smiled as she stared out of the window by the bed.
"You're lucky to have a brother. All I have a sister, but that's not so bad except we hardly ever see each other." Lena said, and Gin looked over at her silently.
"Where does your sister live?"
"Further up north, so she's fine." Lena said with a smile, and Gin smiled also for some reason.
"That's good…" He muttered, and he then sighed as he closed his eyes.
"L-Lena…"
Lena and Gin looked over to see Kowa trembling at the doorway as he stared to his right, and he was suddenly pushed inside as a point of a blade was pointed at him.
Kowa moved next to Lena, and the person behind him smirked as he rested his blade on his shoulder.
"Bye-bye, Gin." The person said, and all Kowa and Lena saw was a blur before the entire wall was decimated as the person swung his blade down.
Gin appeared in dust with a katana blocking the person's blade, and the two stared at each other as Gin straightened up.
"Why you…" The two muttered, and then Lena and Kowa froze as the two punched each other in the head.
The two fell to the ground in pain, but they quickly looked over at each other.
The two were instantly standing as they tried to glare down at the other.
"What kind of brother attacks his own kin when they're resting?"
"What kind of brother of mine has to rest anyway?"
The two started to shout at each other as the people from the houses surrounding them looked out frightened as the two continued to shout at each.
"You're the one who had to act all heroic and try to save everyone!" Gin snapped angrily while pointing at the person.
"You're the one who had to start the fight in the first place!" The person snapped back angrily as well.
Lena and Kowa as well as the rest of the people of the town watched the two snap insults at the other until Lena stepped toward them.
"Um… Can you two please calm down?" She asked nicely, but kicked the two in the head before pointing down at them.
The two stared up at her with the same hurt face as they clutched their heads in pain.
"That hurt!" They said in unison, and Lena smiled sweetly.
"Good, so maybe now you'll calm down?" She asked, and the two looked at each the other before quietly grumbling something.
The two stood up in unison as they brushed the dust off of them.
Gin sighed as he rubbed the back of his neck, and the person across from him gave a low whistle.
There was a moment of silence before the person let out a sigh.
"So how are you?"
"Is that all you can say that isn't an insult?" Lena snapped angrily, and the two nodded in unison, which made Lena even angrier.
"Who are you anyway?" She snapped while pointing to the person, and he pointed to himself in confusion.
"Me?" He asked as his dirty blonde hair blew in the breeze.
"Yes, you."
"I'm Leaf Coldblood." Leaf said calmly, and the entire town froze in fear as they stared at Leaf and Gin.
Leaf looked around at the people, but that only made them quickly run away faster.
"Was it something I said?" He asked innocently, and Gin shrugged as he looked around also.
Lena sighed as she hung her head while Kowa sighed as well.
"Hey, Nii-san." Leaf said, and Gin looked over at his brother.
"Yeah, what?"
"We still haven't found out."
"Good point."
Lena and Kowa watched in confusion as the two faced each other, and they raised their fists quickly.
Lena was about to swiftly kick them until they swung their fists down.
"Jan-ken-po!" The two shouted in unison, and Lena fell back in surprise.
Leaf and Gin gritted their teeth as they tied, and they started to play rapidly as Kowa helped Lena to her feet.
"Jan-ken-po!"
"Jan-ken-po!"
"Jan-ken-"
"Enough!" Lena shouted and kicked the two in the head, which only caused them to hit the ground hard and tumble away a few feet.
"What were you guys even doing anyway?" She asked angrily as her vein pulsed lightly while Kowa sighed behind her.
"We didn't finish seeing who would get the bigger piece of bread." Leaf and Gin said blankly, and Lena fell backwards in surprise.
"That's why you did that?" She snapped angrily, and the two nodded innocently, but each received a hard kick to the head.
Leaf groaned as he sat up while clutching his head, and Gin slowly pulled himself up as the two stared at Lena in pain.
"That hurt…" They muttered in unison, and Lena let out a deep breath as she calmed down.
"Now then…" She started to say, and Leaf and Gin both perked up as they stared at her.
"You two are going to be repairing our house for us." She said as she pointed to the destroyed wall, and Leaf sweat dropped at what he had done.
"Um… Sorry?" He said, but was silenced by Lena's glare.
"But I didn't even do that… Nii-san did…" Gin muttered, but then paused as he looked over at Leaf.
"Where is Light?"
Leaf looked over at Gin with a small smirk, and he pointed behind him.
"Baka-Light is probably lost."
"Probably. We Coldbloods do have an awful sense of direction, right?" Gin said, and the two chuckled until Lena kicked them gently in the head.
"How about you start fixing our house before catching up with each other?" She said calmly, and the two nodded in fear as they quickly went to work on fixing the wall.
Leaf slumped against the wall when they had finished, and Gin was panting heavily as Lena handed them both water.
"Thanks for fixing the wall." She said kindly, and the two nodded as she left to give some water to Kowa.
"She's kinda cute." Leaf said calmly, and Gin nodded in agreement.
There was another moment of silence, and the two just sat in utter silence as they looked in different directions.
"Do your best, Nii-san." Leaf said, and Gin nearly choked on the water as he stared at Leaf in shock.
"W-What?"
"What? I'm already married, so it's your turn." Leaf said calmly with a smile, and Gin glared angrily at him.
"Just cause Mother likes you more than me, doesn't give you the right to state how she found you a wife before your older brother!"
"You're only two days older than me!"
"So?"
"So there!"
The two were quickly back on their feets as they glared at each other while trying to push the other away with their heads.
They suddenly paused as they stared at each other, and then the two started to chuckle as they slumped back down to the floor.
"It's energy wasting to fight against you cause you always lose."
"Same here cause you never learn."
The two smiled calmly as their veins pulsed angrily, and the two glared at each other with a smile before quickly stopping as Lena walked back into the room.
"What did I miss?" She asked when she noticed the strange looks on the two brothers' faces.
"Nothing…" They said in unison, and Lena raised an eyebrow at them.
"Well, I guess we should…" Lena trailed off as a scream pierced the silence, and the three perked up at the sound of blood being spattered.
Leaf and Gin quickly looked over at the window, and Lena didn't even get to blink as she was suddenly outside as Gin had lifted her and suddenly appeared outside the house as the Akuma rose into the air.
"They're here!" Leaf said happily as he unsheathed the blade from his back, and Gin formed his katana from the water around his hand.
"Maki."
"Kikan Mizu."
"Innocence Activate!"
-sigh- Akuma... Oh well... -continues to fix wall- Why did I get sent to fix the wall? Lazy brothers...
