CHAPTER 12: THE PIPER part 1
The morning breeze blew through the air as the sun rises. The sunlight shines through the window as Rona opens the curtain.
"Rise and shine boys! Breakfast is ready!" Rona said loudly as she claps her hands.
"Ok..." Butch said tiredly as he gets up, scratching his back.
Brick got up, his eyes are still close and his hair is messy. His cap was laying down the floor not far from him.
Boomer is still sleeping, hugging his pillow while drooling all over it.
"Wake up Boomer," Rona said with a soft tone as she shakes Boomer's body, causing him to wake up. The blond boy gets up and whips the drool on his mouth.
Rona then shakes the body of the person who was lying next to Boomer.
"Wake up, Taka." Rona said softly.

Usually, the boys would have a race to the toilet with each other but this time, they decided just to walk there as they were tired from yesterday's event.
Being on the front, Brick enters the toilet first while the others wait outside. All of them have the tired look on their faces.

(Somewhere in Tokyo City)
"Haruko? Wake up! Breakfast is ready!" A woman said, knocking the door of a room.
In the room, the atmosphere was dark. The purple walls and the violet colored curtains makes the room looks gloomy. On the bed, lies a sleeping girl. Her raven colored hair covers the left side of her face. Her ginger locks runs smoothly down her sides. Her peaceful sleep was disturbed when she heard the knocking.
"Yeah mom, I'm up....." The girl said with a dull tone, rubbing her eyes.
--
After taking her bath, the girl walks out of her room and head downstairs to have her breakfast. Near the table was her father who was reading the newspaper when he sees his daughter sitting down on the chair.
"Good morning dad." The girl greeted.
"Good morning, Haruko. How's my girl?" The man said with a smile.
"I feel just fine." She said. She then plugs in small earphones in her ears as she turns on her iPod.

(Treehouse)
The boys along with Ronna and her grandfather are at the table, eating there breakfast.
"So Taka, how are you feeling?" Ronna asks.
"Fine! Just fine." Taka replied while taking a bite of his bread.
"You must have slept well." Rona's grandfather said while stirring his tea.
Taka just smile at the old man, scratching the back of his head.
Brick just stares at him, spreading the jam on his bread. "Yeah right..." He thought to himself as he bites his bread. Boomer was not listening to the conversation because he was to busy eating. Butch just ignores them as he eats his scramble eggs.
--
(Later tha day...)
The boys are walking down the lane of a street, feeling bored. Since there was nothing they want to do today, they decided to have a drink at their favourite cafe. As they walk, Taka noticed something up ahead. He sees a person in a black coat, sitting down on a bench while playing his flute. There is also a group of children sitting down on the ground, listening to his play. However, something about the person caught his attention.
"That tune, I heard it before. But where?" Taka thought to himself.
"Hey guys! Look!" Boomer said as he points to the man.
The boys quickly turn their attention towards the man that Taka pointed. They see blue colored dusts come out of the children's' nose and they enters the person's nose whilst the children turning paler. Without wasting time, the boys run towards the man.
"Hey!" Butch yelled.
The man startled and starts to make his get away as the boys chase him down.
--
(Somewhere)
Haruko said goodbye to her parents as she walks out of the house. She decides to spend the day reading her favorite novel at the park. As she walks, she sees a something coming towards her direction.
--
The chase was still on. Taka tries to catch up to the man by attempting to tackle him on the corner of the street. However, his plan failed when he accidently bumps into a girl.
"Ouch!" Haruko said.
"Sorry!" Taka apologised. He helps the girl to stand up.
"Next time watch where you're going!" Haruko scolded. But Taka ignored her as he runs off to chase the man.
"What was that all about?" Haruko said as she looks at the running boys.
"Whatever..." She said to herself, shaking her head.
--
The chase has stopped as the man comes to a dead end. He has no way to escape as the boys walks closer to him.
"Hey. What have you done to the kids?" Brick asks with a serious tone. Butch smirks at the man as he cracks his knuckles.
The man grins and turns into a cloud of black smoke and disappears.
"He's gone!" Boomer said.
However, they suddenly heard laughter behind them as the same cloud of smoke reforms.
"Alright. Who are you?" Brick said, pointing his right index finger at the man.
The man smirks, "I'm the Piper!"

I'm finally back for this fanfic. I also changed my penname from RedBrick17 to ShadowRainX. I changed my writing style but I don't know if its any better. Anyway, I think I'm gonna change the storyline a bit but I don't know..... What do you guys think?
PS: I don't know if i want to continue this fanfic cause I think its kinda childish now. I got some better ideas for an RRBZ fanfic. Or maybe I do a 'remake' of two of my PPGZ fanfics with a better storyline and title? Tell me if you support me.
R&R
