Yeah to keep this kid friendly I had to censor all the swear words. If I decide to move this up to T I will go back and un-censor everything. Enjoy!

Edit: Yeah, I moved it to T. Here we go editing editing editing...........

The clock seems to get slower every second, Yako almost glances behind her, almost, but thinks better of it. She hears a deadly sounding rip behind her. 'No. no, no, no, no! Not the stuffed animal dad brought back from America for me just last night!'

Yako's face blanches as a Panda head flies over her head and unto the desk in front of her. The eyes have been ripped out and the ears are gone as well. Yako holds in her tears. The long, low bell signaling the end of school seems to mourn with Yako over her loss.

"Hey, pigeon turd." Yako turns to her side slowly, a look on her face so menacing it would have sent any other kid into hiding, but not him. Neuro shows a sign of mock displeasure.

"Oho, is the slave going to turn on its master?" His foot comes down on Yako's. Hard. Yako suppresses a whimper, she already has a large painful bruise there from yesterdays torture.

"Hmph. I will let you off easy today, chunk of amoeba. But do not show me a face like that again." Neuro stalks out of the room cackling madly.

Everyone else has already left. "some friends" Yako mumbles as she quickly packs up her belongings and grabs the mutilated toy. She runs as fast as she can out of the building, stopping only to toss the irreparable animal in the trash.

She bursts out the gate and runs three whole blocks and stops dead. 'I can't hold it in any longer.' Yako's lip trembles. Not caring who sees she slouches down onto the dirty street curb and begins to sob. 'Why me? Oh why, why, why? Its not fair He makes fun of others but he tortures me expressly! What did I do?'

In the distance she can hear a string of profanities being said rather loudly, but she will not move even if it means death. ' Life is so unfair! Did my ancestors do something for me to deserve this? Oh, papa!' The profanities, quite close suddenly stop.

"Oi, kid, whats wrong? Why are ya cryin' in a place like this?" Yako only sobs harder, Hoping whoever it is will go away and leave her to mope (or kill her quickly.). "Hey kid I asked what the hell was wrong with you, and I want a damn answer!"

Yako glances up to see a Junior school age kid, actually he looks like he should be in high school but he has a junior high uniform from one of the local schools on. 'must have failed multiple times.' She decides. "Go away. I have been bullied enough!" Yako chokes out, turning her head back towards the ground.

"Ah. Bullies huh?" The nameless guy sits down on the curb next to her, continuing to stare straight forward. Yako glances at him out of the corner of her eye. "Two earrings..... a delinquent? Great, just what I needed" Yako's sobbing stops leaving only silent tears as she ponders on this.

"Good, ya stopped. I hate brats who cry, its annoying." Yako stares at him. The young man notices and tugs slightly at the collar of his shirt, quite a skill since the top three buttons are undone.

His other hand rummaging in the back pocket of his pants. "Here." He continues to stare straight forward as he hands her a simple white hankerchief. "Ya better not get any lil' kid snot on it ya shitty brat!" Yako dabs her face with the hankerchief. Surprised by how soft it is.

" Look, ya stupid brat. I know a thing 'er two 'bout bullies, and I know that bullies generally are stronger or smarter than you, or both. So ya gotta work hard to catch up to 'em so they can't bully ya any more. But 'till then, Don't show any signs o' weakness. That what they want ya to do. Ya gotta fight any way you can and if it means bottling up yer feelings then ya do it."

Yako smiles at the man. He gives surprisingly good advice.

"thanks mister. Say whats your name? Mine is Katsuragi Yako." " Damn brat, don't thank me. My name is Shinobu Godai. Remember it." His eyes narrow slightly but his cheeks turn a light shade of red.

"Thank you Godai." Yako smiles wholeheartedly at him. Godai jumps up. "Yeah whatever! Don't let me find you cryin' again damn brat, or there will be hell to pay!" He runs down the road, with speed almost inhuman.

"Ah, Godai!" Yako reaches a hand out toward him but he has already turned the corner. "..... you forgot your hanky." Yako looks down at the hankerchief stained with her tears.

"I'll do it Godai, I will fight." she scrunched the hankerchief in her fist and walks determinedly towards her house. yelling,

"And I won't cry either!"

Hey there! I fear I have made Godai too soft for his own good, ah well it was cute, besides this is before he gets involved with the mafia.

As always R&R is helpful.

More chapters soon! I hope. It all depends on my school load.
