Learning How To Be A Brother
Garrett got up at six in the morning. He was wearing a sleeping cap like Naruto's and black pyjamas. He was nervous because today was the first day of high school for him. Shrek hadn't told Snowgre that Garrett was attending the same school as him.
He then did some hand signs as purple energy was in the palm of his blue hand.
He smiled at that.
It was his chakra.
"I'm glad Snowgre doesn't know about my chakra or that I'm a Genin. He wouldn't understand." he murmured to himself.
He then put a shuriken beanie on his black spiky hair, wore a Gaara t- shirt, black jeans and biker boots.
He missed Shai and Osaka.
He then went into the kitchen and found Fiona there. She was frying eggs for breakfast.
"Morning Garrett, excited about high school?" she asked him.
"Sort of." he yawned drinking juice.
Snowgre then came in sleepily. He was dressed in punk rock clothes.
He had his furry head on the table.
Shrek laughed at that. He then poured a mug of coffee. He knew Snowgre had sleeping problems because he was thinking about Garrett. He then drank it.
"You okay Garrett? You seem nervous." Shrek told him.
"Yeah I am. I'm worried about high school. I've..... never been in school. I was home schooled by my adoptive mother.
I'm scared about being around other kids. My only friend was Shai." he told him.
Fiona understood Garrett's nerves. She'd never been to school wither but had taught herself through books.
"Just be yourself and things will work out, I think." Shrek said.
Garrett thought about it as he ate breakfast and did some skateboarding. He grabbed his back pack which looked like Gaara's gourd bag and went to school.
He then collided into a boy with spiked purple hair. He seemed angry.
"Hey freak!
Watch where you're going!" he yelled as he got to his feet.
Garrett sighed getting to his feet and got back on his skateboard. He felt a little depressed about him and was worried about the other kids at the school in case they were all like that.
He then walked through the doors as he breathed deeply. Kids stared at him as he walked to his locker. Mikaz then tapped on Snowgre's shoulder.
"What's he doing here?" he asked himself angrily but remembered yesterday. But he saw a girl with black and purple hair, wore black and wore skull earrings.
"Leave him alone!" he heard the girl say to the other kids teasing Garrett. They ran off at once. Mikaz laughed at that.
"Wow everybody's always afraid of Kendra." he said but he gasped seeing Garrett talking to her.
"I like your clothes. You're not from here, are you?
I'll see you later, okay?" she told him.
He nodded smiling as he left for class.
Kendra blushed seeing Garrett walk off.
"He's so sweet and quiet. Maybe he.... won't be scared of me like everybody else." she thought sadly.
Snowgre saw Garrett in the canteen at lunch alone. He was eating ramen with sushi but using chop sticks. It made him feel better in an unfamiliar place like this.
Mikaz wondered what was up with Snowgre.
"You don't like Garrett, remember?" he reminded him.
"Yeah.... you're right." he told him eating a burger.
Kendra then approached Garrett's table and sat down. She was eating noodles.
Garrett smiled.
"You used to live in China, didn't you?" he asked her.
"Yes. I used to live in Asia with my mother until she..... died. I've been living on my own ever since. The other kids are afraid of me because to them, I look like a Goth." she told him.
"That's not true. You look like a normal kid. I'm the one they should run away from. I'm Garrett." he said softly.
"You seem like a normal ogre kid to me." he heard her say.
Snowgre was amazed that Kendra wasn't hurting Garrett but was confused.
Why wasn't he running away from her?
He saw a smile on his brother's face.
"She mustn't be evil as we thought. Maybe Garrett sees something we don't." he thought as he went to Gym class but Garrett wasn't there.
Snowgre found him with the Goths, Kendra's so called friends.
"What is she doing here? She gives us a bad name." one of them said. Garrett was shocked by that.
"But I'm one of you. I have powers and wear black." Kendra told them.
"Yeah right! You're nothing but a freak. We're like this because we're rebelling against others like our parents, you on the other hand are a monster, a witch so stop trying!" a human kid in white make up told her.
Garrett saw tears in Kendra's eyes.
"Shadow Clone jutsu!" he yelled after making a hand sign.
They were scared as more Garretts appeared. "W-What're you?" the leader said.
"A ninja." Garrett replied taking care of them.
They ran off scared.
Snowgre was amazed but curious about his brother.....
