"A-Akira"
The middle aged woman almost dropped the dish she had been cleaning as she rushed to the other side of the counter nearly nocking down the teen she had been rushing to meet.
"oh my god, your okay, you-you're alive and-"
She stopped, tears streaming down her face, looking behind Keith or Akira as she had called him she noticed the confused looks of the people he had entered with aswell as her customers.
She grabbed the teen's wrist and motioned to the ones behind him to follow.
The six made it to the brake room only a lone employee was there before they were shooed by the woman.
The woman turned and looked each person one she knew and another seemed familiar.
" where have you been, we've been worried sick! especially when you stoped sending letters!"
Keith put a hand on her shoulder using the other to pull down his mask.
" I wish I could explain but right now i need you to tell me where Hikari and Asuki are"
Saku nodded worry and confusion replaced by determination as she quickly made her way to her phone.
Shiro had been loosly translating the conversation, so the others were caught up.
"sooo Akira? "
Pidge and the others looked curious, Shiro had a pleading look as if asking him to share this little bit of information.
He sighed, " Akira is my Legal name, it was Keith before my grandparents changed it, but the garrison got my files messed up and ended up using my old ones"
Pidged nodded thoughtfully though they seemed to be making mental notes and lists of questions.
Hunk looked confused, looking over to Shiro (accidentally typed Shito XD) for comformation only to receive a solom nod in response.
Lance on the other hand looked a little irritated, "ugh more secrets, look Keith, Akira whatever, i understand this is sensitive and all but can you atleast tell us what the hell is hoing on"?!?!?
Shiro moved to defuse the situation but Keith stopped him, "no, no you...you all deserve some answers, though i cant promise theyll all be answered"
he motioned to the chairs at a large table.
As each person sat down Keith prepared, his mind skimming over memorys to see which he would ahare and which to keep for later.
"i guess i should start at the beginning"
0000000000000000
A young maybe 6 year old Keith sat on his old too creaky bed, his messy and unkept hair reached past his shoulders and curled out slightly at the ends.
His unaturaly lilac colored eyes swept across the hand made home or shack as his father jokingly called it, it was empty save for the broken down furniture
His father hadn't been home , he left late in the night with only a 'ill be back tomarrow'...that had been days ago.
two ...
or was it three...
Keith couldn't remeber, all he knew was that his stomach hurts and he that he was scared.
00000000
"Wait, WAIT , so he just ...up and left?! "
Lance looked outraged and pidge looked annoyed that lance had interupted, Hunk on the other hand was on the verge of tears.
Keith sighed , "yes now let me continue"
lance didnt look like he wanted to accept that but sat down after he got a glare from both pidge and Shiro.

The 6 year old winced when he felt a shock of pain go through his stomach, he was really hungry, he jumped off his bed and walked out side his little home, he walked to a small plott of dirt full of wilting plants.
His father had kept a garden full of veggies and stuff but it required the knowledge of how to maintain them in dessert heats.
Somthing keith didnt have.
The small boy walked through the plott looking for any survivors, none, not even a green leaf.
The child sighed about to enter the house when he saw dust clouds nearing in the distance.
They were getting closer, maybe his dad was back!
There were two...
Maybe his dad brought someone with him?...
He quickly ran into the small tool shed his father put the gardening suplies in doing his best to fit into the small hiding hole.
He heard car doors slaming shut and murmurs of speach, it was in english, he knew a bit of English, his father prefered to speak Japanese, his home language, but keith had heard him speak the seconddary form of speach over the phone.
"hello? any one here"
It was a womans voice, she sounded worried and unsure.
Another voice cut in with annoyance, this time a mans voice, he sounded experianced but young, someone stern but calm.
His father was like that.
"Beth he's been out here for a few days by himself, hes not gonna trust the first rando that trys to be nice to him"
Keith leaned on the door of the tool shed, were they talking about him?
Keith leaned on the shed door forgetting about the weak door, the door creaked open startaling himself and the strange people.
The man and woman spun around eyes locking onto keith like hawks.
The two froze the man noticing the panic and fear lifted his hands in surrender and elbowed the his partner so she would do the same.
They acted as if they were aproaching an injured wild animal, but if keith was being honest, thats what he felt like.
000000000000
"Beth and Jason took me to an orphanage, I lived there for maybe a year or so before my actual blood family picked me up...
They weren't to fond of the name Keith, so they switched it with my fathers first choice, Akira. I was raised in the family homes, i wasnt exactly allowed outside much, if it wasnt a family gathering or manditory appearance I wasnt allowed..."
Keiths shoulders slumped his eyes locked on the table, he didnt want to look at his team, he wasnt ready to tell them everythong, and for some reason he felt that if he looked at them, his resolve would shatter.
"Akira, their on their way and bringing the twins! they over heard the conversation and demanded to see you! hahaha you shoulda heard it they were whining and crying"
Saku smiled sensing the tence atmosphere, her eyes looked sad until she finally made eye contact with Shiro.
"wait a second...Shiro Takashi?!?
the boy Akira and you know who would sneak out with!! oh my, youve changed so much"
The woman practically rushed the now slightly terrified paladin, and then turned flustering when she noticnoticed the confused looks of the other teens.
"Oh forgive me none of you other then Akira and Shiro speak Japanese, you must forgive me, i do apologise in advance for any improper english"
She had a strong accent some of the words being lost in trancelation.
Keith smiled softly at the flustering woman who continued to speak in broken english, almost laughing at hunks panicked face as he tried to calm her down.
Lance looked like he wasnt sure what to do but tried to approch only to be asked questions by the japanese woman.
Pigde and Shiro escaped easily leaving Hunk and Lance to suffer.
Keith couldnt help but smile a little wider, this was just like Saku, she seemed cool when you first meet her but she was a huge softy and a mother at heart.
00000000
After Saku calmed down it seemed so dif her accent, it was easier to understand for the others.
As soon a lound scream was heard and a silver blur tackled Keith forcing him from his chair.
A moment later a boy maybe 8 or so sped in to the room holding a raggy old stuffed cat, strangly an almost identical boy was hugging keith like he would dissipear within secounds.
Both had black hair and dark chocolate eyes tho the one that had attacked keith had lighter eyes, the one with the stuffed animal had longer hair and a skinnier frame, this one rushed over to keith aswell joy obvious on his features.
Two men came running in after them, the relation was clear, they had similar faces though one had a beauty mark near his left eye, the shorter had dyed blond hair while the other had dark brown, their eyes were almost black.
The two men panted, their hands on their knees on glared at the two boys but the look seemed to soften after a moment, menwhile the other seemed to be practicly wheezing.
The others (paladins not including Shiro) gave eachother confused looks, as the two boys seemed to attach themselves to Keith both barely even letting him stand to fix the chair.
The two men finaly stood, the one with yhe beauty mark stood first despite having been wheezing moments ago.
" the names Hikari"
Th other stood, this is the one who had glared.
"im Asuki"
