ALL ATTACK!! JUNE YAOI!

Prologue

I’m Karman Lowell. I’m seventeen years old and my birthday is June 7th. I used to attend a public school in America but have been sent here to Japan to study at Ashford Academy against my will. Sort of like a reform school. Really I think my parents just can’t stand the sight of me so they sent me here while they stay in America far, far away from me.
It’s fucked up like everything else about my life. Now that I go an all boys private school and live on my own on the money that my parents send me and paying for schooling. Rich assholes cut me out. I get no mail or letters saying that they miss me, I only get the checks they send in the mail monthly. No phone calls, though I never bother to call them or write anyway. As far as I can tell I could care less. I can get by on my own, I don’t need them.

Chapter one: Breaking down walls

“Did you hear about the new American student?” a boy gossiped to his friends. They nodded. One smirked.

“Yeah, heard he doesn’t know much Japanese either!” he scoffed. The other boys chuckled.

“How the hell did he even get into this school? His grades aren’t there!” another said scornfully.

“Didn’t you hear you twat! He’s the only son of the Lowell family” he sneered.

“Figures! Money talks!” the group of boys suddenly shut there mouths when the source of there gossip walked into the classroom a distasteful look burdening his face. Said boy was slender with fair skin. He wore a dark brown Long sleeve shirt with three small white buttons on the collar which were left unbuttoned. He then wore snug light gray skinny jeans with and black boots. Both of his ears were pierced several times, his unruly hair was a light reddish brown that fell around his handsome face and azure eyes. The student stood in the doorway holding his bag over his left shoulder with his one finger, his eyes glanced around the room before landing on the gaggle of male students that stared at him.
The red head have then a scornful look like he had just eaten something distasteful. He had been here for almost a month and still he could tell he was the talk of school. Of coarse with his record he probably would be for a time to come.
The group of boys sneered at him causing Karman to glare at them before taking a step towards the students.

“If..” he began getting there attention. They looked at him still smirking. The red head smirked in return a fierce look in his azure iris’s. “You got something to say I suggest you say it to my face, or do you plan to continue to whisper among yourselves like a couple of girls?” he sneered. The group of boys glared at him both scared and anger like what did he say? One of the boys a second year quickly stood up in his seat the chair tipping backwards and hitting the floor with a loud crash.

“What! You want to pick a fight!” the second year snapped at him. Karman smirked something almost insane like he had found this extremely amusing.

“Sure, Got nothing better to do, I could use some light exercise” he explained causing the boys to growl at him. Unfazed he continued pointing light at the boys the same feral look on his face. “But I don’t have that much free time on my hands so why don’t you all come at me at once”

“You fucking asshole!” another student snapped standing up.

“Must you idiots fight over the stupidest things?” a calm voice asked. Karman looked over his shoulder seeing another slightly shorter student then himself standing behind him. Said boy had fair skin and brown eyes. His unruly hair was a light gray. The boy wore a snug brown t-shirt with white decaled beast on the front, forest green cargo pants and a lopped belt.

“Mr. president” the group swallowed. Karman glared at him over his shoulder. The student council president folded his arm over his chest an indifferent look on his face.

“Fighting on school campus is against school policy” he muttered. Karman smirked in return.

“Hmmm? Is that so?” with no warning he swung his arm around his fist clenched tight, the attack was caught in a firm grip by his wrist.

“Yeah that is so” The small boy perked. Karman’s eyes widened. “I’m guessing that you must be the student from America, Karman Lowell” Karman glared at him in return his wrist still being held tightly by the boy. With no warning a fist was thrown catching Karman in the side of his mouth his wrist in return was released so he could fall backwards into the desks. The students who once gathered there had no better then to stay and backed up a while ago. Karman laid on table connected desks before sitting up whipping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

“Thought you were against fighting on campus?” The red head sneered, the student council president raised his fist his knuckles were red from hitting him before.

“Let that be a lesson to you” he answered before turning and waking away and leaving the classroom. Karman frowned and sat up glancing over at the gaggle of boys across from him.

“Hey Jerk off” he began. “Who as that?” he finished rudely.

“That was Mr. president. Head of the student council Ya Shura Nora” the one boy spat. “He’s the only son of the prestigious Ya Shura family, the top of our school” Karman let a depressed look burden his handsome face. He was the same as him, a family that expected so much from him. He had the same problem when he lived with his father, nothing he ever did was good enough. That was why he was here instead of at home.

* * *
It was late at night sometime around twelve at night. Karman walked around the empty park around his apartment building. He never could really sleep very well at night. He could only fall asleep if he was dead tired and walking for hours around this park did the trick. It was chilly out tonight so he had put on a dark red hooded sweater the same clothes he had worn in school hidden underneath his sweater. He walked around with his translator in his hand studying his Japanese to pass the time.
“Hey! Get back here!” he heard some one yell. Karman looked up indifferently.

“Huh?..a fight maybe” he thought aloud. The red head stopped by a large hedge on the side of the path listening to the voices yelling from the other side. That was when a boy fell through the hedge tackling him by mistake. Karman fell backwards with the boy on top of him hitting his head hard on the stone walk way. “Ouch!” he whined his eyes easing open painfully to see the boyish face of Nora Ya Shura. “Nora?” he questioned. Said boy glared at him.

“Don’t call me by my first name like you know me!” he snapped. There was suddenly a rustling in the bushes from behind them causing Nora to whip around to see the rustling of the bushes in the darkness. “Run!” he yelled grabbing Karman by his collar and dragging him to his feet as he stumbled into a running pace.

“Hey!” Karman yelped as he was drug along leaping into another hedge by the path ducking down to hide. The two hid in the bushes quietly peering through the small gaps in the leaves. They saw two men’s legs run in front of the bushes not facing the hedge but each other instead.

“Where’d he go!” one man snapped.

“He must have gone that way hurry up!” the two men then suddenly took off leaving them alone. The two teens then stopped holding there breathe and waited a while until the coast was clear. Karman fell out of the bushes dragging himself out covering in tiny cuts and scratches on his face from the branches.

“Ow damn” he swore feeling the burning scrape on his face, looking at his finger tips he saw a thin stream of blood. Nora fallowed brushing himself off as well after more calmly exiting the hedge. He to was covered in cuts on his arms and face, though one mark on his right check bone looked fresh and wider then the other on his arms. Karman sat on the ground glaring up at Nora. The gray haired boy looked down at him.

“What?” he questioned. Karman stood up getting in his face clearly angry.

“Oh nothing It’s just I still owe you a punch in the face and another for dragging me around and throwing me in a bush is all” he growled. Nora had a stoic look on his face.

“Really? Then hit me tuff guy” he said in English this time. Karman was taken back by his smooth answer in his own mother tongue.

“You know English?” he questioned. The gray haired teen sighed putting his hands in his pockets.

“Of coarse I do, don’t insult me” he muttered. The red head snorted and back up away from him looking around to make sure those guys didn’t come back.

“Who were those guys chasing you anyway?” he asked slightly curious. Nora made a face at him before smirking.

“Curious?” he pressed. Karman’s eyes narrowed on him.

“Not to much. Just a question” he answered truthfully. Nora then smirked again.

“Oh! Then you were trying to start a conversation with me then?”

“No!” Karman defended. “Don’t misjudge me but I’m not good with awkward silences I hate the quite air” he muttered. The gray haired boy smiled slightly. The blood from his cut cheek ran down his face in a slightly think flow. Karman looked at it just as the smaller boy moved his hand up to rub the blood away. The red head caught his wrist before he could do such a thing. “Don’t rub it!” he ordered. Nora’s eyes widened at his reaction. Karman noticed the surprised look and quickly let go looking awkwardly away from him. “I mean…it’ll get infected” he mumbled. Nora let his hand fall to his side letting the blood slide freely.

“Your right I guess I forgot” he admitted. Karman stood dealing with the awkward silence for a while pursing his lips before broke the calm air.

“You never did answer my question?” he pointed out. Nora sighed in reaction.

“It has nothing to do with you” he muttered. Karman looked back to him now seeing that Nora was staring at the ground his milky brown eyes avoiding his own. The unabashed look of longing on his face. Karman would never understand this kid, but in a way he did. Cause in a way there were alike. “Well I guess I’ll be going” Nora mumbled as he turned to walk away. Though before he could get very far he felt a hand on his shoulder he looked up at Karman with a confused look.

“Those guys are still after you right…it’s not safe for you to be running around at night” he mumbled.

“What’s your point?” Nora questioned. Karman sighed.

“Stay over night at my place till morning” he answered now finally looking at him. Nora’s eyes widened slightly.

“But..I have school tomorrow and so do you” he mentioned.

“If that’s all your worried about then I don’t see why not” Karman pointed out. “You can barrow clothes from me” he added. Nora nodded and was lead home by Karman.

* * *
Karman and Nora entered the apartment, it was very small with only a living room, a bathroom. And a small kitchen. Karman closed the door behind him and walked into the living room shedding his sweater and tossing it aside. Nora stood there looking around the darkness of the apartment. “Where’s the bed room?” he asked curiously.

“Don’t have one” Karman informed him. Nora made a face.

“Then where do you sleep?” Karman took off his shirt tossing it aside as well he pointed over at the couch.

“It folds into a bed” he mused. Nora nodded watching as Karman reached under the couch pulling out a large comforter and two pillows setting them on the coffee table. “Move that will ya” he asked motioning to the coffee table. Nora nodded and walked over grabbing the table and pushing it up against the far wall away from the couch. The red head then pulled a suitcase out from under the bed opening it and drawing out a pair of sweat pants and shoving the case back under the bed. He then finished changing taking off his pants and putting on the sweat pants then turning to the couch shirtless. Karman then began yanking the couch apart tossing the cushions aside and grabbing the metal frame of the couch and easily pulling it up.
Nora watched his muscles flex in the light of the moon the creped through the crakes in the window blinds as he pulled up the frame of the couch to turn it into a bed. Karman pulled out the legs before setting it down having the couch now a bed. It seemed like a lot of work just to go to bed. But he looked used to it. The red head then grabbed the pillows and the single comforter of the coffee table and throwing them in place on the bed.
Karman then walked towards another door disappearing behind it and returning with what looked like a first aid kit. He sat Nora down on the coffee table and sat next to him and began patching up the cuts and cleaning his wounds. He then closed the kit and tossed it aside again, he then looked over his shoulder at Nora. “Well are you just going to stand there or get undressed?” he questioned. Nora nodded quietly and kicked off his shoes then removing his brown t-shirt leaving his cargo pants in place. Karman watched him in return as he stood half naked in the light before him. The red head then shook his head and crawled under the covers resting his head on a pillow patting the pillow next to him.

“You want me to sleep in the same bed as you?” he questioned. Karman sighed.

“It’s either you share a bed with me or you can sleep on the floor your choice” he muttered yawning. In reaction he felt the bed droop and creak as Nora crawled into bed next to him pulling the cover over his body. The two laid in bed on there sides facing away from each other. This was unexpected to see the Karman lived alone in a rundown apartment building, even with his families name he would have never expected him to live like this. Nora inhaled the scent of the bed and pillow then he laid on, it had a musky smell to it. It smelled like Karman. He felt an thankfully unseen blush creep up on his face. He was sleeping in Karman’s bed with said boy laying next to him. And for some reason it felt comfortable.

* * *
It was early morning the birds were chirping loudly outside the window, the light from the sun pierced through the blonds landing upon the two figures of the boys in the bed. The two teens lay tangled in the covers now both of them facing each other there fore heads close to each other. Karman’s face twitched before he opened his eyes lazily. He sat up in the bed yawning and scratching his head. The red head then glanced around the room before looking down at the place next to him on the bed. There Nora slept still curled up with the covers. Karman couldn’t help but smile slightly before laying back down on his side shaking Nora gently. “Hey. Get up” he mumbled. Nora’s eyes cracked open slightly before he looked up at Karman. He grumbled something inaudible before pushing himself up on the bed rubbing his eyes.

“Wha-time is it?” he mumbled. Karman climbed out of bed throwing the covers over Nora’s head.

“Time for you to get up” Karman answered. In response Nora threw the blanket off himself and crawled out of bed. Karman reached back under the bed pulling out the suitcase of clothes he yanked out some clothes for him and Nora tossing him some clothes. “Put these on” he ordered. Nora caught the clothes and nodded to begin changing in the living room along with Karman. Both standing at opposite sides of the bed there backs to each other. Karman changed into a pair of darker blue skinny jeans and shoes with a plain black t-shirt. He glanced over his shoulder watching as the unknowing Nora changed out of his pants putting on the darker gray skinny jeans with black flower decals on the right pant leg. He then slide the snug black long sleeve shirt on over his frame. The two boys then brushed there teeth and fixed them sleeves in the bathroom. Karman then pulled on a dark green jacket leaving it unzipped grabbing keys off the table and heading for the door waiting for Nora. The gray haired teen fixed his hair before pulling on his shoes and walking with him out the door leaving the bed and covers laced with there scent to burn in the suns rays.
The two walked down the stairs exiting the apartment building into the morning air. Karman lead the way to the parking lot walking up to a dark blue Suzuki sitting in the lot. Nora stopped there as Karman mounted the bike and prepared to start it up. “So this is what you get around in?” Nora questioned. Karman smiled at him.

“Sure. Why you scared of bikes?” he asked chuckling. Nora scowled at him walking over towards the bike to get on the back.

“Idiot” he mumbled. Karman started the bike and it roared to life trembling beneath them. Nora coiled his arms around Karman’s waist as the red head put on a pair of sunglasses before grasping the handles of the bike.

“Hang on tight!” he yelled over his shoulder. Nora nodded against his back. The bike then stormed out of the lot screaming down the road towards the school. Nora buried his face in the red heads back his eyes widen open watching the scenery fly past them and smear together. But as if only riding for a few minutes they had already reached the lot of the school. The curious looks of onlookers and students stopped and stared as they pulled into parking space near the school entrance. Karman took off his glasses and stuck them in his coat pocket before dismounting his bike. The red head then turned helping Nora off the bike as well.

“You seem to attract a lot of attention” Nora pointed out. Karman chuckled.

“And you say it like it’s a bad thing” he mused taking the keys and jingling them in Nora’s face before stowing them in his pockets and walking away. Nora fallowed him picking up the pace to fallow beside him.

“You know that neither of us brought our things” Nora asked. Karman nodded smiling.

“I knew I had forgotten something!” he beamed. Nora shook his head and fallowed him. He then stopped and looked at the floor with a conceded look on his face. Karman looked over his shoulder at him a stoic expression. “Hey how about I give you ride on the bike later?” he asked. Nora looked up at him with a confused expression.

“What?” Karman rolled his eyes.

“yes or no it’s not that hard” Nora nodded smiling a genuine smile.

“Thank you I’d like that very much” Karman felt lighter for a second at his unbiased expression of happiness. And for a moment he felt greedy and wanted to be the only one who could make him smile like that. But he knew that that would in any likely hood would never happen there would always be someone who could make him smile like that. And Karman knew he looked better smiling like that, he felt his heart flutter for a moment and in a sense he had fallen for Nora Ya Shura.

“How about after school?” he asked hopeful that he would say yes. Nora smiled brighter nodding at him the pure and charismatic look of happiness on his face.

“Yeah after school” he answered before he was suddenly crowded by other members of the student council. Karman smiled to himself as he left the hallway feeling lighter then usual. Like a huge load had been lifted no longer keeping him pinned to the floor allowing him to stand up tall. He must have had a very different expression his face because he noticed some teachers and students look at him with a surprised expression. He must have looked happy. And the word happy was strange for him, let alone the feeling but there was nothing wrong with it and he now longed to always feel like he was walking on air. And Nora just might have been the key.

* * *
Karman stood leaning against his bike waiting for Nora and for some reason he didn’t show up. He felt his heart sink with every passing moment. He felt betrayed by Nora, he was angry for a moment but then felt more sad then pissed. He sighed and was ready to leave after waiting a while when he noticed Nora walking with two other men in black suits leading him off the school grounds towards a black limo parked in front of the school. They walked right by him and Nora glanced at him his face becoming confused like he was surprised that Karman had waited that long for him.
One of the men opened a door to the limo for Nora to climb in. Karman glared stepped behind them on the path. “Nora!” he snapped. The men stopped and turned to him along with Nora. The red haired boy walked up to Nora looking a bit angry. “Whose then men in bla-” the men stepped in front of Nora blocking the path between the two. Karman glared at them.
“Get out of my way” he growled.

“Karman” Nora mumbled. The men glared down at him, one of them reaching into the inside of his coat for something. Karman ignored the men.

“Please back away boy” one of them warned. Karman glared at them.

“Fuck you. I’m not hear to talk to you” he snapped at them. Just as he did he watched one of the men pulled a stun gun, clicking a button. “Eh?” he questioned as the man jabbed it at him, he dodged it, the stun gun grazing his side but it still hurt like hell. He held his side painfully crouching on the ground.

“Last warning kid back off”

“Karman I’ll be fine these men work for my father” he mumbled. Karman glared at the men before forcing himself up.

“Shut up before I kick your ass. Get out of my way” he growled once more. “Move now before I get angry okay” the guards snarled and the one man jabbed the stun gun at him again. He swiftly knocked it away with his left arm, the one man gasped as it fell clattering to the floor. Karman quickly scoped it up tossing it cockily in his hand. “Told you so..” he jeered confidently. The two men glared at him. Nora’s eyes widened. Karman just might be able to win here. The men came at him and Karman used the stun gun on the one mans stomach holding it there and hitting the button holding it in. When the other man came at him from behind he smirked looking over his shoulder and putting the stun gun under his armpit pointing it at the man, the mans eyes widened as he to was hit with the stun gun. Nora stood flabbergasted as the two men fell leaving Karman alone with that damned smirk on his face and the stun gun in his hand. Nimbly he tossed the gun around in his hand.
“What? I promised you a ride didn’t I?” he mused. Nora smiled warmly at him that same perfect look of satisfaction.

“Yeah you did” he mused, Karman extended his free hand to him and hesitantly it was taken by Nora.

“I’m hungry lets go get something to eat” Karman added smiling.

“Same! I’m starving” Nora admitted as the two walked happily to the motorbike.

Chapter two: Reaching the other side

Karman sat curled up on the couch on his notebook a board expression on his face. The coffee table sat in front of the couch holding warm drinks of chocolate. Nora laid out stretched on the floor with a few open books around him and a notebook and a pencil in his hand as he wrote and took notes. Karman wore a warm dark red turtle neck and gray skinny jeans and gray socks. Nora wore a snug emerald turtle neck with black skinny jeans and white socks. Nora sighed when his pencil tip became dull. “I need a sharper tip” he bemused dully. Karman tossed a pencil from the table to him and went back to working on his computer. He was then hit with the same pencil in the forehead.
“I already have a pencil you idiot, I just need to sharpen this one” Karman rubbed his forehead sneering at Nora.

“Then why’d you ask me for a pencil?” he snapped.

“I didn’t! I was talking to myself!” Nora yelled back. Karman rolled his eyes.

“Oh and that’s normal” he scoffed. Nora sighed closing his books and sliding them under the coffee table before heading over to kitchen to make something to eat.

“I’m going to get something to eat you what something?” Nora asked. Karman smirked and fallowed Nora into the kitchen coming up behind him, he stood in the doorway watching as the slightly smaller boy stood before the fridge with the door hanging wide open as he search through the contents of the fridge. He picked through the leftover food from take out nights. Mostly pizza. Nothing healthy like a normal teen should be having. He looked back into the fridge finding more pizza with weird looking mold on the top “Karman!” he snapped at him. Karman looked up at him lazily his hands in his pockets causally.

“Hmm?” he asked.

“Don’t you ‘Hmm’ me! What the hell is this!?” Nora yelled holding up the discussing pizza.

“Hmm, Pizza with mold on it why?” Nora chuckled the pizza at his head hitting him square in the face.

“Idiot! Don’t you throw food away!” he yelled. Karman kicked the pizza across the floor and left it go.

“Yeah. I do” he answered. Nora crossed his arms over his chest an annoyed expression on his face.

“This fridge is disgusting! Not to mention judging by it’s contents I’d have to say you order out a lot” he sighed turning back the fridge and cleaning out all of the spoiled food which was half of the fridges contents.

“Yeah, so?” Karman brushed it off. Nora sighed.

“So. You need to eat healthy! All this pizza can’t be good for you” he replied. The red head scratched the back of his head sighing.

“Yeah well I’m not exactly a very good cook, in fact I don’t even know how to use a stuv” he answered.

“It’s a stove not a stuv.” Nora pointed out tying up the trash bag to keep the smell inside. He then pushed the fridge door closed with his heel putting his hands on his hips. “If you take me to the store I can get some things and make you dinner sound good?” the gray haired teen pressed. Karman sighed and pushed himself off the thresh hold of the doorway.

“Sure, sure” he sighed grabbing his jacket and taking a seat on the coffee table to get his shoes on. Nora did the same tying his shoes then standing up straight pulling on his black trench coat with a wide raised collar similar to that of a tunic. The coat had white fur on the hems of the coat fitting snugly over his form. Karman’s jacket was simple just a gray coat with white fur on the hoods hem. He grabbed his keys and opened the door adverting behind him just as Nora grabbed his wallet and headed with him out the door.

* * *
Nora skimmed along the shelves carrying a shopping basket. His cheeks were rosy from the bike ride here, not exactly the warmest way to get to the store but Karman had no other vehicle. Karman fallowed behind him dragging his feet scratching the back of his head catching the looks of some girls who giggled at him. Probably for shopping with a boy. The red head sighed and looked ahead of him seeing that Nora had picked a can of something off the shelves. “Eww I hate pickled cabbage” he complained. Nora stopped and looked at him placing the can back on the shelf.

“Then what DO you like?” he snapped.

“Big macs” Karman answered simply. Nora sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

“Those are okay every now and then, but you need to eat healthier food too” he argued. Karman made a face.

“But healthy food tastes gross” the red head interjected. The gray haired teen turned away from him and began looking through the shelves again.

“Your eating what ever I feel like making” Karman sighed and kicked his foot of the hard surface of the floor. “You coming? If you don’t watch me carefully I might get something you don’t like” Karman jogged up to catch up to him, his pace slowing once he reached him. “What about beats?” he asked picking up a small can of beats. Karman shook his head no. Nora and sighed and put it back and moved on. The red head looked down into the basket seeing that Nora had filled it with some items he hadn’t seen him pick up.

“What that?” he asked childishly bending over the basket slight and pointing to one of the food contents in the basket.

“Eh? Oh burdock spaghetti” Nora answered. Karman made a face at the name. “It’s good trust me! Don’t give me that look!” he snapped. Karman sighed and left it go. The two shopped around for a while after a while Karman had given in and agreed to at least trying pickled cabbage and the healthier foods. As a reward Nora promised to make desert dumplings with dinner much to Karman’s delight. The two looked over some filing for the sweets. “What kind of fruit do you like?” Nora asked.

“I like strawberries” he answered. Nora picked up a few cans of strawberry filling.

“But strawberries are bitter” Nora pointed out. Karman shook his head smiling taking the cans from him.

“Eaten raw they are, but if you make them into a jam or something like that with the right ingredients they can be really sweet like chocolate” he mused. Nora pursed his lips at him.

“I hate chocolate” Karman’s eyes widened.

“No way!” he yelled loudly catching the attention of the other shoppers.

“Inside voices please Karman” Nora sighed. Karman continued freaking out despite the fact that people were staring, some mothers were steering there children away from the sight.

“How can you not like chocolate! It’s the best! It sweet and tangy!” he argued. Nora once more pinched the bridge of her nose.

“Okay first off look up the meaning of the word tangy before you use it again, second it’s far to sweet and it rots my teeth” the gray haired teen argued. Karman grabbed his shoulder and dragged him down the aisle towards the candy aisle thou he protests mildly by refusing to fallow. Thou his protests were ignored and he was dragged along anyway, Karman stopped before a row of candy bars adverting and smiling at Nora.

“What are you waiting for pick on up” he urged motioning to the candy. The gray haired teen made a face at him pursing his lip at him.

“I told you I hate chocolate…” he informed him again when a colorfully wrapped candy bar was held up inches from his face, he looked at the treat blinking before looking beyond at the reed head holding it.

“Come on! Everyone likes chocolate” he bribed. Nora pushed the hand holding the candy out of his face his usual emotionless look burdening his boyish face.

“Not me” he reminded him. Karman sighed and ran his hand through his hair.

“So not fair, I’m trying the food I hate and you won’t even try chocolate” he pointed out waving the chocolate in his face.

“Well life sucks that way” Nora said simply moving to walk away with the basket of food still hanging off his arm. Karman tossed the candy bar back on the shelves and fallowed him scratching the back of his head idly. The two walked to the self check out counter seeing Nora scan a credit card.

“HEY!” Karman snapped. Nora looked to him with a mild expression raising a elegant eyebrow at his loud friend. “don’t pay for stuff for me!” the red head yelled. Nora chuckled.

“You flip out over everything” he pointed out picking up the bags of food and walking away. Karman chased after him still shouting and catching attention from the other shoppers. The gray haired teen merely walked out the doors with the seething Karman chasing after him.

* * *
Karman sat on the couch in a rather laid back manner grumbling to himself about how stupid Nora was. The latter was currently in the kitchen cooking the food he had promised for Karman, the red haired teen glanced up occasionally staring holes into Nora’s back. Finding himself swallowing and biting his tongue. Lately he had been experiencing feels foreign for Nora who he had considered his friend. And unusually he found himself thinking about Nora almost every second of the day and he’d be much happier when he was with Nora. He felt like he could himself around Nora Ya Shura. The American boy sighed and laid his head back on the head rest of the old couch.
Thou he knew he valued his friendship with Nora more then anything, and if that meant he’d have to lock up these feelings then so be it. The red head felt like smashing his head through a wall for even think of Nora that way, he glanced out the window seeing the freezing ran pelt the dirty window. Nora glanced over his shoulder at Karman who seemed to be staring pensively out the window, which was odd for him. He normally never looked deep in though or like he ever thought at all, he was always optimistic. Well around him anyway. He Didn’t do well with people he didn’t know, he would often be rude and a bit standoffish. But that was when he first got here, he seemed so angry and like he hated everything and everyone. Nora knew it had something to do with his family sending him away because he dared to be what he wanted to be. Normal.
Nora stared down at the steaming pot before him with a lamenting expression. He only wished his way out was that simple. “The food done yet?” Karman grumbled leaning over his shoulder. Nora jumped and looked up at him quickly before looking back down at the food.

“Almost” he offered. Karman glanced at his face, the ashen haired boy focused on his work noticing the relenting stare he looked up at him, their eyes meeting for a brief moment that seemed to last a lifetime. It was broken when Karman glanced to the side like something had caught his attention. It had seemed his darkest secret would be the hardest to hide in his life, he was an excellent lair but. A small part of him wanted him to tell the truth. But the fear of rejection shrunk the will power away an shoved it in some dark place in his heart. The red head glanced out of the corner of his eyes at Nora seeing that he had returned to cooking. Things never seemed to go for him, and they never will would they?

* * *
Around a week had past since Nora had stayed late over at his house and cooked him dinner. And after that they had started another one of there not talking to each other retunes. Karman couldn’t explain why they were like this, it was almost normal for them in an awkward kind of way. The American teen stood at his locker with the door hanging open, he peered aimlessly into the locker with no intention of stopping of stopping for a while. The other students watched him nervously and whispered, to them Karman was a strange guy with a uncanny personality and a bold disrespect for authority as the teachers and other students had learned very quickly. He was like a ticking time bomb, he was unpredictable and unapproachable and so far to Karman he liked it that way.
“You know if you continue to stare at the wall like that your burn a whole in it” Nora pointed out monotony behind him. The red head adverted looking over his shoulder at the slightly shorter boy. “Or is said stupid American trying to think again?” he added. Karman frowned at him.

“What talking to me again?” he snorted finally shutting his locker. Nora made a face at him.

“Excuse me, but some of us are busy with school work. You would know for you lack there of” the ashen haired teen grumbled. Karman rolled his eyes at his comment.

“Yeah, yeah you got a reason for talking to me or are you just hear to bitch?” in reaction Nora held up a clean white piece of paper in his face. “The hell is that?” Karman added snatching the paper from him.

“Join the student council” Nora said simply. Karman couldn’t help but start to bust up laughing holding his sides. Nora frowned distastefully at his reaction. “I’m serious” he added only making Karman laugh more. He tried to speak through his fit of giggles but failed miserably at it. Nora’s eyebrow twitched in annoyance at his bold out burst, the other student became more unsteady by his suddenly display of emotion. “Fine be an ass all your life” Nora snapped turning on his heel to walk away when he was caught by his arm.

“Wait” Karman said between his dying giggles. Nora glared at him. “It just seemed funny is all”

“Really how so?” the Japanese boy pressed. Karman smiled at him.

“Well It just seemed that you wanted nothing to do with me and now you want me to join the student council with you it’s just funny” the red haired informed him his giggles still hanging in the air.

“Sometimes I wonder if being friends with you was such a good idea” Nora sighed. Karman slung an arm around his neck smiling like a fool.

“Sure I’ll join what does the student thingy do anyway?” Karman beamed. Nora sighed his shoulders slumping under the weight of his friend.

“School stuff” he answered simply. Karman rolled his eyes.

“School stuff very descriptive” he said his tongue dripping with sarcasm. Nora smirked.

“Maybe, but can you handle it?” Karman smirked in return.

“Try me”

* * *
“Let me leave” Karman whined.

“Your getting out of class, stop whining” Nora snapped. The other student members felt very uncomfortable in the presence of Karman but said nothing since Nora was the one who recreated him. They were going over some boring things about the school. And what not. Karman didn’t know cause he wasn’t really paying attention.

“I’d much rather be sleeping in class then here were you smack me every time I try and sleep” Karman grumbled earning another smack in the head by Nora who sat next to him. “Ass face stop hitting me already!” Karman barked at him holding his aching head. Nora gave him an impassive look his chin resting in his hand.

“Get over it” he said simply. The red head glared at him making the other students sweat. The air was filled with tension. Karman flopped back in his seat lazily with a huff.

“Look this is so boring! I changed my mind on joining” Karman explained. Nora smirked and tossed a fabric banner in his face. “The hell is this fucking thing?” Karman commented shoving the banner to the ground.

“Pick it up. Carry it. And help me hang it up.” Nora said slowly like he was dumb. “The rest of you hang up the paper banners, you can handle that right?” he snapped. They nodded and picked up the stack of papers and leaving the room. Karman grumbled and gather up the banner in a ball and stowed it under his arm and walked out the door into the empty hallway. Nora fallowed after him forgetting to lock the door behind him. “You brought your things for gym right?” Nora asked as he left chasing after Karman. Once they were out of sight a group of students peeked around the corner and tip toed to the door of the classroom.

* * *
“Why do I have to be the one to climb up the ladder?” Karman complained as he climbed up the trembling ladder that was set up in the large entrance way in the hallway. Nora held the ladder in place to keep it from falling over.

“You seem to be so piped up on energy so you can climb up the ladder” Nora said flatly. Karman glared down at him climbing up to the top rung to reach the place were he was to hang the banner, he pulled the banner up and began pinning it in place. Nora frowned seeing that he was making a mistake already. “Ummm Karman?”

“What is it now?” the red head groaned looking down at him almost losing his balance.

“Ya notice anything….wrong?” Nora tried to throw him a bone. Karman had a questioning look on his face, he glanced up at the beginning of his crappy pin up job. It was then when he noticed the banner was upside down. He glanced down at Nora.

“Shut up” he muttered and Nora smiled at his stupidity as he began pulling the pins out to redo the banner. As he worked Nora watched him with a seemingly less threatening look, it was replaced with a mild look of adoration. After they finished up Karman slid down the ladder making Nora nervous. “All done!” he beamed looking up at the banner.

“it looks crocked…” Nora offered.

“Deal with it” Karman snapped playfully ruffling his ashen tresses before moving to collect the ladder. Nora walked up to help him glancing up when a pin bounced off the floor behind him. He glanced up just as the banner sagged and fell on them. Karman flipped out and flailed underneath the banner bumping into Nora knocking him over. “I ca--sorry!”

“You big oaf!” Nora yelled trying to crawl out from under the banner. Karman stepped towards him and tripped over his stomach falling flat on his ass. “Damn it Karman!!”

“I’m fucking sorry!” Karman yelled thoroughly aggravated. Nora crawled out from under the banner and stood up brushing himself off turning to face the banner with Karman still underneath it. The red head stood up and peeked his head out from under the blue banner smiling at him with a yeah-I-know-I’m- a-moron kind of look. Nora shook his head at his antics placing a hand on his hip and leaning most of his weight on one foot. Karman let the banner fall off his frame before he tossed it in a pile in the middle of the hallway.

“You know you have to redo that don’t you?” he pointed out. The red head scratched his head nonchalantly in response.

“Oh shut it” he groaned moving to pick up the discarded school banner.

Chapter three: Pushing me away

After finally getting the Banner to stay up. The two boys headed back to the classroom grabbing their things just as the bell rung for gym. Upon entering the locker room together leaving each others sides to move to their lockers to get changed. Karman sighed unlocking his locker and moving to pull his school uniform, his eyes dilated slightly seeing foreign markings on the white gym shirt. Curious he held the t-shirt up to read what had been spray painted on his shirt: Go back to your own country!!. The shirt was labeled with all shorts of raciest terms and hurtful phrases meant to insult Karman.
The students around him laughed joking and talking unaware of what had happened to Karman. The red haired teen clutched the shirt tightly in his hands his blood boiling at only one of the sayings on the shirt. Go back to your own country. In his furry and might he punched his locker hard the sound rang through the locker room making the students near him jolt in fear quickly looking to the angered teen. He had punched the metal door hard enough to dent the locker and scrap his flesh on the small slits in the metal door. The room became deathly silent as Karman’s head was downcast on the floor his face still twisted in anger. Then with no warning in his native tongue he screamed profanities. “Do you actually believe that I fucking want to be here!!” he screamed causing most of the students to back away from him. Concerned mutters emitted lowly from the locker room. The only one who had stepped forward skirting the lockers was Nora who was half naked in only his red gym shorts.

The frustration Karman felt was a regular thing for him. He felt so much now mostly anger towards his parents for putting him in such a place. “Karman” Nora spoke up with his usual emotionless face, his voice was just the same. Karman glared at him removing his fist from the dented door down to bleed at his side.

“What the fuck do you want!?” he snapped. The gray haired teen’s eyes narrowed on him in return. Though Nora could partly understand his frustrations though he didn’t understand Karman’s predicament. He didn’t know about his parents sending him away because they didn’t want to deal with their son, he didn’t know that his parents avoided all contact with him.

“Calm down your acting like an ass” Nora answered dryly folding his arms across his pale chest. Karman’s wild blue eyes dilated at his response.

“Shut your fucking mouth you little shit!” he snapped back his intense feelings of anger escalated with every passing second he allowed his thoughts to race. Karman the failure: Karman the unworthily: Karman the useless: The unwanted: the hated: the stepped on: the anger: the wrath: all of it was building up and threatening to crush his world to pieces. With no release in sight such thoughts will destroy him from the inside out. Outside his vivid azure eyes but deeper lies something that hates and wants everything around him to go straight to hell. “You don’t know a fucking thing about me! So don’t stand there and fucking look down on me I don’t need your fucking pity!!” Karman screamed at the gray haired teen. The other students lingered in the locker room though some deciding it best to leave.

“Your right I don’t know you” Nora muttered. “Yet you don’t know me either yet there you stand screaming accusations at me” the gray haired teen added in surly. The red haired student growled at him in response clenching his fists at his sides, now everything was pissing him off to know end. The faces of the students who watched from afar, the silent mutters of his mind screaming at him. He could see the faces of his parents as his father told him repeatedly how disappointed in him he was. He remembered his mother merely standing by saying nothing yet showing nothing either. He remembered begging his parents to give him another chance.
He recalled getting angry again and snapping at every little thing and hating all the things he once held dear. He remembered his hard childhood from the beginning himself trying to be everything his parents wanted. He remembered giving up and throwing everything back in there faces when he failed repeatedly. By voicing that he didn’t want to become a lawyer like his father, he wanted the freedom to chose his own friends, make his own choices weather they were right to wrong. He wanted to face have real friends who liked him for him and not because their parents were friends.

“Shut up! I already know how you are!” he screamed. Nora glared at him.

“Stop getting so worked up over everything!” he shouted back.

“Why so I can be like you!” Karman screamed making Nora wince slightly. “So I can become just like you! So I can turn myself into a fucking emotionless asshole!! So I can have perfect grades and a bright future at the cost of my very self!!” he finished his voice still screaming.

“I’m not like that!!” Nora defended.

“So I can have my parents actually look at me and tell me there proud of me!! Because I gave in and became what everyone wants me to be!! So I can end up just like you!!” he accused pointing harshly at Nora who stood dumbfounded.

“Shut up!”

“I don’t want your fucking life!! Leave me to trip over myself and fail over and over so long as I can look at myself in the mirror I’ll be just fine!! I DON’T NEED ANYONE ELSE BUT MYSELF!!!” he screamed at the ending his body trembling in tremors from the pent up frustrations that were almost released on his only friend. “Stop trying to turn me into you I don’t want to be like you”

“What is going on? Honestly that never happened, I tried to turn you into me” Nora began. “Anything is better then being me” he whispered to low for anyone to hear. And he began to understand little by little that he and Karman were far to much alike, it was almost terrifying. Karman was everything he wasn’t. Karman was: fearless: spontaneous: outgoing. Karman was beautiful. And if one looked closer Karman could be gentle and kind. His tough outer shell was merely a shield from the world, and Nora was one of the few who had gotten a peek at his true self on rare occasions.
The latter bit his lip hard before shoving past Nora and leaving the locker room just as a teacher had walked in lead by a few students. Though he had intended on intervening he stepped quickly aside for Karman to pass on his way out taking nothing with him. Nora stood glued in his place watching Karman leave before his eyes glanced over at the Karman’s forlorn pile of belongings. With steady steps and walked forward bending over to pick up the ruined shirt. His eyes widened at the sight of the sayings and malicious comments and insults, he tightened his grip on the shirt recognizing the handwriting fairly easily. It was in fact some one he knew on a level though not as friends. Feeling his own frustrations boiling he bit his lip and packed up Karman’s things and finished getting dressed. He would confront this person at lunch and deal with things his own way.

* * *
Lunch period. A group of boys laughed at a lunch table. “Hey Akomon-san” one of the boys chuckled glancing to his friend. “That was pretty sweet what you did to the American gym shirt!” he spat laughing. Akomon laughed as well.

“Yeah, hope he takes my advice!!” he bellowed. And in that moment his tray of food was smacked off the table colliding with the floor. The boys eyes widened as Akomon angrily looked up behind him seeing Nora standing there across from him, the raven haired student glared at Nora. “The fuck you want!!” he snapped and with no warning Nora slammed the t-shirt down onto the table for all of them to see.

“Remember this?” he growled. The table fell silent knowing that Nora could get them in some serious trouble. Though Akomon took pride in his work and smirked leaning back in his seat casually.

“Not really” he sniggered only seceding in pissing Nora off more then he already was if it was even possible.

“Need me to refresh that bad memory of your?” he threatened. Akomon glared up at him before standing up his height reaching over Nora.

“Yeah--” with no warning he was punched hard in the face causing him to stumble back falling against the table. His friends jumped up in reaction. Nora held up his tightly gripped fist the same angry and pissed off look on his face.

“The next one will put out for good” he threatened. Akomon touched under his nose feeling the warm blood streaming from his nose, he glared at Nora. His eyes becoming hard.

“You little shit!!” he snapped ready to dive in to attack when his friend grabbed his shoulder.

“Not here man!” he encouraged. The bully tore his arm away from his friend, throwing a punch at Nora in unison. Using his arm he deflected the punch pushing it to the side, and with his opposite he upper cut catching him in the stomach knocking the wind out of him. It turned into an all out slugfest between the two boys though Nora was more then enough to hold his own. Due to his training to protect himself she he wouldn’t need a bodyguard during school hours, he hated those stuffy brutes. Using the advantage of his weight Akomon plowed into Nora throwing him back into another table, Nora fell back into the table to students at said table jumped up backing away from the fight. The students gathered around and cheered not allowing the teachers to pass and brake up the fight. The thick crowd of people cheered and punched the two fighters back into the fight when they fell into them.

“FIGHT!! FIGHT FIGHT!!!” the students chanted. Nora joined back into the fray throwing out another strike connecting with his collar bone, Akomon grunted and doubled over stumbling backwards into the crowd. He was shoved back into the fight and while running he punched Nora in the shoulder causing him to almost lose his footing falling back towards the crowd. Once again he was shoved back in straight towards Akomon who was in mid-swing. Luckily Nora ducked under the punched ending up behind Akomon, he spun around kicking the latter in the back sending him falling into the crowd only to shoved back into the fight. Nora stood ready unable to hear anything over the chanting crowd, Akomon glared at him furiously in a blind rage he charged at Nora full speed ramming into Nora shoving him hard towards the crowd that nervously and quickly dispersed reveling the wall right behind them. Akomon shoved Nora’s back into the wall holding him by his collar forcing him into the wall as he punched him the face with his fist.
He had Nora pinned against the wall as he repeatedly hit Nora in various places. In an attempt to escape the gray haired teen kneed his opened in the gut causing him to double over slightly, he then roughly grabbed his hair and slammed his face down into his knee again. Akomon cried out stumbling backwards releasing Nora’s shirt one of his hands covering his face the other held out as if to fend off any on coming attacks. Nora smacked his arm to the side and grabbed him by his hair throwing him head first into the wall, the students let out horrified screams as the fight ceased to be amusing the crowd thinned slightly as teachers forced their way through with much effort. Akomon sat slumped against the wall still holding his face the same hand came up to protect himself, his friends prepared to jump in as Nora approached but hastily said boy was yanked back away from Akomon by the teachers. The fight was broken up and the students quickly returned to their places not wanting to get in trouble for watching the fight.

“What the hell is wrong with you kids!!” one of the teachers yelled. Nora breathed heavily glaring furiously at Akomon who seemed down for the count. The teachers gathered around Akomon to assist him with his injuries while the teachers kept their grip on Nora while scolding him, though most were to surprised to say much to him. None of the staff had ever expected to see the day Nora started a fight.
It was then when the principal grabbed Nora and drug him off to his office while Akomon was taken to the nurse and would be dealt with later.
Nora was shoved into the office harshly by the principle, Mr. Tokamura.

“Sit down Ya Shura-san” the elder man snapped. Obeying Nora took a seat in the seat, his shirt stained with blood and he could already feel the bruises on his face and shoulder throbbing. Mr. Tokamura paced the office to angry to sit or speak. Though finally he did. “What in the hell did you start that fight for?” he asked unable to understand Nora’s logic. And in return the student said nothing. The elder man grumbled in aggravation at his silence and not before long he was giving Nora a long tirade about his behavior. Though seeing as this was Nora’s first transcription he left him off the hook with only a weeks worth of detention and nothing else. He ended his and Nora’s little chat though Nora said nothing nor replied to anything Mr. Tokamura.

The rest of the day seemed to drag on. After Nora was told to go to the nurse to get his wound patched up, though he was in better condition then Akomon. Students had ribbed him about his reasons for fighting but the flow of questions stopped when he glared at them the same feral look that he had given Akomon. He wanted to leave school early to go find Karman but when school let out he didn’t know were to start. He knew nothing about Karman’s favorite hang out spots or places he liked to be.

Nora walked slowly out of the school building with the crowd of chattering students. He watched his feet as he walked with the other students, his thoughts lingering on how he would find Karman. And eventually his thoughts drifted to what his parents would do when they found out about his fight today. He sighed to release the stress he felt before stopping in the middle of the parking lot looking up at the gray sky. The cold winter air nipped at his face stealing his heat despite his jacket.
“You just going to stand there and freeze or are you going to let me give you a ride?” A voice said pulling him back to reality. He calmly glanced next to him seeing Karman standing across from him motioning towards his bike. He was wearing a snug dark green jacket with black fur trimming on the hood. He scratched the back of his head awkwardly knowing about his and Nora’s little spat before. “Listen…about…you know before…I’m sorry” he mumbled.

“Sure, sure” Nora agreed brushing it off. Karman noticed his bruised face and raised an eyebrow in questioned, he stowed his hands in his pockets to keep them warm.

“What happened to you? Looks like you were hit by a truck?” he pointed out. Nora sighed.

“You could say I was” he admitted. Nonchalantly he then held up Karman’s forest green one strapped backpack for him. “Here” he murmured. Karman perked up before taking the bag from his friend tossing it over his shoulder.

“Thanks…” he mumbled awkwardly. The two stood in an awkward silence until finally Karman spoke up first thou hesitating slightly. “Hmm so…as I was saying before, you want me to take you for…a ride?” he asked. Nora smiled a tiny almost unnoticeable smile.

“Okay” he said calmly though the happiness clearly in his voice from the mellow tone. The red head smiled a crocked smile at him as he lead him to the bike to go for a ride like he usually did for Nora. In truth he would do anything Nora asked him to do though he would never tell him that. He mounted the bike letting Nora climb on behind him already wrapping his arms around his waist as the bike roared to life. Karman used his feet to hold the bike up as he pulled his small sun glasses from his coat pocket putting them on to protect his eyes. The gray haired teen glanced over seeing a limo waiting for him in the parking lot across from them he smiled to himself as the bike roared haphazardly out of the parking lot onto the road cutting off a car in return.
“Careful you idiot!” Nora snapped. Karman merely laughed in return as the bike screamed down the road as he whizzed around traffic skirting turns and running red lights only to piss Nora off but surprisingly Nora watched the city fly with dilated eyes a perfectly content smile on his face. He laid the side of his face on Karman’s back to use him as a wind shield. He didn’t know were they were going nor did he care. Hearing the cars honk and swear at them in protest to Karman’s skillful yet radical driving. His arms tightened their grip on his waist as he watched the people pass them by along with the buildings and cars.

The ride lasted for the longest time so long until the sun started to go down and city lights flaying past them in a whimsical blur. He didn’t recognize this part of town yet he stayed quiet as they took the scenic route flying past the glistening waters of the ocean just over the bank of the nearly empty road they drove on. They were leaving the city far behind though Nora had placed his trust deep within Karman and believed that nothing bad would happen between the two of them. They’d be okay so long as they stuck together. In that moment the sun was setting over the ocean in a wide array of fire. Nora simply watched in awe until the bike sputtered nosily. Karman made a face looking down at the gauge and soon he felt like kicking himself. “What’s wrong?” Nora asked.

“Out of gas” he yelled over the bike, the bike crawled to a slow as Karman steered it off to far side of the road. The bike suddenly died under them and Karman sighed placing the kickstand down and dismounting the bike, Nora fallowed the suit watching as Karman messed around with the bike for a moment before standing up right scratching his head. “Well…” he sighed. Nora rolled his eyes. So much for trusting Karman. The gray haired teen glanced out at the beach under the sunset, Karman noticed his wondering gaze and smiled at the burning sky. “Guess running out of gas isn’t so bad when you get stranded in the right place” he mused. Nora nodded slightly.

“Yeah, you seem to get stranded in good spots” he viewed. The red head gave him a questioning look.

“This is the first time you ever got stranded with me?” he pointed out. Nora glanced at him.

“What’s your point?” he asked. Karman gave him a self-confident grin pointing his finger up at nothing.

“You might go stir crazy if exposed to me to long” he joked. Nora smiled a tiny smile once more.

“So you’d like to think” he argued. The two then leaned on the metal guardrail of the road, Karman had climbed over the rail to sit on it’s edge instead. They watched the sunset for a while until Nora peeped over in Karman’s direction once more. “So what do we do now?” the gray haired teen inquired. The red head smiled in return keeping his glazed expression glued to the setting sun.

“I have my cell phone I could call for someone to come tow us?” he informed him. Nora sighed as a chilling wind blew playing with their tresses, the smell salt wafted around them carried by the same breeze. The two teens watched the sunset moving to hide behind the waves of the ocean that went on for miles in almost every direction. They relentless wind like a thief stole there heat causing Nora to shudder slightly. In response to the almost unrecognizable shiver Karman slid himself over towards Nora his shoulder rubbing up against the smaller boys to share the warmth.
Karman had made the call long ago and soon the two could see the headlights of a truck in the distance driving towards them. Karman stretched smiling to himself. “Finally!”

Chapter four: Valentines fever

The students cheered happily while riding a bus on a trip to spend a week at a famous hot springs resort for Valentines day. Everyone was very excited to be going Karman though could really care less he only went cause Nora had asked him to come with him. The red head sat slouched in a buss seat in the back next to Nora who sat in a much more dignified manner then his companion. Karman sighed scratching his head listening to music from his Ipod. Nora was actually beginning to doze off from the long ride to the mountains. Karman could care less about what was going on around him so the cooing of the girls in his grade went unknown and unheard to him.
“He is really cute isn’t he?” a girl giggled glancing over at the board Karman who sat near them. The group of girls giggled in return. A beautiful girl with long raven tresses that were held in a under her dark blue beret. Her big brown eyes were framed perfectly with just the right amount of make up. She wore a small dark blue long sleeve dress with thigh high white stockings and white boots. Her name was Elide and she had recently developed the hots for Karman Lowell.

“Come one Elide-Chan go talk to him” one of the girls coaxed. Elide smirked lewdly peering around the corner at the unsuspecting Karman. The raven haired girl stood up and walked back sitting in the seat across from the one that Nora and Karman sat in. the red head ignored her at first until he saw her lips moving. He couldn’t hear her due to the loud music in his ears, though he didn’t feel like dealing with her so he ignored her until his ear phones were yanked out of his ears by a peeved Elide. He glanced up at her nonchalantly.

“Can I help you?” he asked aggravated. The beautiful girl smiled taking a seat again.

“Hello I’m Elide” he introduced herself. Karman raised an eyebrow at her. He cared why. Elide pouted cutely at his response or his lack of one. “I was wondering if you wanted to sit with me and my friends” she said far to confidently obviously a girl used to getting everything she wanted. And Karman hated girls like that, he smirked in return and Elide gave him a sly smile. Casually he reached out grabbing her chin seductively puling her closer to his face that same surly smirk on his face making the girl blush for once. There lips lingered close together though never touching her friends watched with there eyes wide.

“Beat it” he whispered in a low undertone before releasing her and leaning back in his seat comfortably placing the ear sets in his ears again. Once Elide recovered she glared at him but that died as well and she smirked. She stood up and pulled out one of his ear phones leaning down to whisper in it, he kept his face smug and over confident.

“Once you’ve had me you’ll always come back” she encouraged in lustful tone. Karman chuckled looking at her there faces inches apart once more.

“Trust me, I’ve had FAR better then what you could ever give me” he pointed out huskily. She frowned at him. And in return he flicked her hat smirking. “Cute hat” he mocked her. Slightly embarrassed Elide stomped away leaving Karman and his over confidents to fester as he watched her leave. And honestly he felt so much better now.
He watched Elide return to her friends who quickly gossiped about the event some glancing over at him seeing that smug grin on his face flustering the girls even more. Some guys snorted at the girls behavior muttering things about the American born boy. Nora dozed off using Karman’s shoulder as a pillow now which didn’t bother Karman in the least bit.

The buss eventually stopped at the resort and the busses emptied of the students and teachers. Karman walked off the crowded buss stretching with his bag over his shoulder. “Man! Finally I hate sitting for to long!” he whined smelling the fresh open air, he wrinkled his nose at the unfamiliar smell. “The fuck is that smell?” he questioned. Nora walked past him yawning still half asleep.

“It’s called mountain air idjit” he scoffed. Karman made a face at him fallowing casually behind Nora.

“Smells like shit to me” he informed him. The students were split up co-ed style. Girls in one dorm and boys in the other. They would be two students in one room each that would be assigned by the teacher. Luckily for Karman and Nora they were paired up as roommates due to the fact the two didn’t get along with others well. Well Karman didn’t anyway, Nora didn’t bother nor cared for others company though he didn’t seem to mind Karman’s.
The two boys headed to their room, upon entering Karman tossed his bag lazily inside the room and flopped on the futon. “Why are the fucking beds on the floor?” he complained. Nora shut the door behind him sighing in response guessing that Karman had clamed the left side so he took the right. The red head laid on his back out stretched on the bed looking up at the ceiling. The resort was done in the traditional Japanese style with candles in paper lanterns and wooden floors. Not to mention the clothes wear for the hot springs was a kimono. Nora unpacked some of his things before turning to Karman.

“Lunch is at six, we don’t have to be in the dinning hall until then, what do you want to do?” the gray haired teen asked. Karman glanced up at him thinking for a moment.

“…Want…to go to the hot springs?” He asked slowly. Nora shrugged sure I don’t see why not. He stood up padding across the floor to grab his and Karman’s Japanese wear for the evening. He tossed the white kimono to his friend who made a face. “No. Fucking. Way” he spat out. After some swearing and cursing each other out. A while of wrestling and disturbing their neighbors with the racket Nora finally got Karman to put on the clothes though he refused to were it correctly.
He wore the white kimono leaving it open in his chest, his perfect fair skin and finally toned chest and stomach revealed for the world to see. He grumbled with his arms crossed as he waited for Nora to finished changing into his black kimono.

“Stop being a big baby it’s not so bad” Nora sighed. Karman glanced at his friends, he wore the attire correctly letting it fit snugly around his thin frame. The red haired boy found himself staring for a moment to long, Nora titled his head in a questioning manner. “What?” he asked. Karman awkwardly looked away so Nora wouldn’t see his face.

“…Nothing” he said after a moment. The smaller boy walked past him grasping the hem of his kimono and pulling Karman along with him.

“Come on stupid” ‘I don’t know how much longer I can hide my true feelings from him..’ Karman mentally kicked himself. Now he wanted a room with anyone but Nora, let alone to be in a hot spring with him. He just hoped that Valentines day fever didn’t infect him as well and make him spill his guts to Nora. Their relationship was just beginning to see a break through. And if it meant hiding behind a mask for the rest of his life in order to protect that relationship then he would gladly stitch the mask to his face forever. Cause he revealed his secret to Nora and he rejected him. He would surely be gone before the morning came.

SCHOOL CRAP

My I-search is on both laptops and Desktops and on which I should get. Some of the things I have found out about weakness and strengths of both computers. Or com’s for short. First off I should pretty much explain both of them so you have a general idea on what I’m talking about.

A desktop is normally bigger then a laptop PC. Yet it has more power and actually never needs a charged battery it has more memory and actually can cost more then a laptop top depending on the model, year made and type. For me through the things that matter most to me when buying a computer is memory, cost, and appearance.
For me if I considered getting a desktop or laptop it would have to go along those lines. A desktop normally can cost more then a laptop but is bigger and takes up all of my desk space! Though some models can be sleek and take up less space, but added with a tower and a unconnected keyboard it can take up a lot of space on your desk. Meaning I’ve got no place to do my homework and that could prove troublesome. But a big plus is memory! With a tower I can a lot more memory for stuff on my desktop then on my laptop and with it being so big and heavy it’s not going anywhere.

A laptop isn’t something to spit at either. It’s portable which believe it or not really works for me plus with it being wireless I can get the internet anywhere I want. Plus its smaller and way more lightweight so I can take it anywhere in my house or out. Though that comes with the risk of being dropped and broken and repairs for laptops can be costly do to it being a laptop model makes repairs harder then that of a desktop. Normally a laptop has to be sent away to be repaired or taken to someone. A desktop is far to heavy for that so someone would have to come over and take a look which can be costly as well.
Laptops though with their fixed keyboard and screen means less flexibility. Though a laptop can cost just as much as a desktop of even more! But all laptops are sleek and thin and they take up way less space on my desk. And if I have not that much space on my desk a laptop can just slip away some where until I need it.

After all of my research I believe that a laptop is best for me. It’s portably and it has every thing I want from a computer. So believe I shall choose a laptop model over a desktop, laptops are far more private.

Lethal Drug

Lethal drug

It was an late Fall morning at the all boys private high school. The leaves had already changed to such vibrant shades of fire, reds, oranges, and yellow leaves decorated the tree’s and the ground with a festive look. The air smelled of the dead wet leaves from last nights rain.
The 10th grade biology class was loud with the voices of the students talking and laughing, a boy of sixteen made his way into the classroom and back to the teachers desk.
“Hello” he said quietly handing him a slip. The teacher looked up at him and took the slip and looked it over.

“You the new student?” he asked in a low harsh voice.

“Alexander Valentine, yes I‘m new here” Alexander informed him with a stoic expression. Alexander was a sixteen year old boy with porcelain skin and a slender and fragile looking frame. His eyes were a vibrant amber and outlined in crimson. His raven hair framed around his delicate face and eyes, he wore the school uniform, black pants with a matching sweater and red tie. Alexander was a beautiful boy, but life had no sympathy for beautiful things. The teacher stood from his desk after looking at the clock seeing as it was time to start class.

“Attention!” he yelled. “Class is beginning as of now please take your seats” he ordered. The student’s listened and quietly got situated in their assigned seats. Alexander stood facing the class, his expression was blank, totally devoid of any kind of emotion. “We have a new student, his name is Alexander Valentine,” he informed them. Some students made snide remarks and giggled about them. “Alexander please take a seat next to Vice Kamalot” Alexander turned he knew that name from behind, it was the name of a good friend of his, it was the only open seat next to a boy with spiky black hair. Vice looked up at him then he looked away.
The raven haired boy took his seat quietly next to Vice. Vice had short black hair with long bangs framing around his handsome face and soft gelled spikes in the back. He had multiple piercing in both of his ears around five of six in each ear, he had a sort of muscular build to him with fair sun kissed skin. His eyes were a luminous azure color out lined heavily in black. Everything about him seemed unsettling, like he was someone you didn’t want to run into in a dark alleyway. He seemed to pay no attention to Alexander, he only stared out the window with a jaded expression. In truth Alexander knew Vice from his childhood, they had been best friends until Alexander moved away when they were ten when Alexander‘s mother died from cancer. But it seemed that Vice didn’t remember him, though Alexander would never forget him.

Alexander walked into the bathroom. An honest trip, though it was the mistake of his life. As he walked in he could hear voices talking quietly to each other. Without thinking he stopped to listen.

“This is all you made?!“ a boy muttered angrily.

“Yup. That‘s 80% of the sales” another said casually.

“If your screwing us over Vice!”” another male snapped before he was cut off.

“Relax I would never do that” Vice said casually. Alexander knew what was going on. Vice was selling drugs on campus to students along with the other two boys and they we‘re worried at Vice had pocketed some of the money. Finally Vice looked up seeing Alexander standing there looking at him. “Hey” he snapped causing Alex to look up at him and the other two boys to advert to him. They seemed angry. “How long have you been standing there?” the pierced boy asked narrowing his azure eyes at him.

“Long enough” he answered him in a monotone. The other two boys glared at him but said nothing. Vice smirked.

“You here to buy?” he asked quiz idly.

“No, I don’t do drugs” Alexander informed him. The hair gelled boy frowned.

“Oh, your one of THOSE kids” he spat. Alexander scowled furrowing his perfect eyebrows.

“What do you mean one of those kids” Vice smirked before taking a few steady steps towards the smaller boy.

“You know the good kids, the ones who look at me like I’m the bad guy” he said wavy his hand around in an easy going way. He then put his hand on his hip giving him a knowing stare. His face then twisted up into a devious smirk. “Your that new kid, Alexander right?“ Alex made a face.

“Yes I am” Vice’s expression became stoic. The other boys pulled out a knife, Alexander’s eyes widened.

“Sorry kid” the one chuckled. “But you came in at the wrong time” Vice stopped his advance with his arm.

“Leave him alone” he muttered not taking his eyes off of him.

“Vice! He knows! We can’t!” the other boy growled. Vice glared at him.

“I’ll take care of it!” he hissed. The other boys growled before quickly leaving stowing the money away in there pockets. Vice walked closer to Alexander his glare turned into a small smile.
“Hey Alex, it’s been a while” he said calmly. Alexander glared at him.

“What are you doing? Why are you?” he began when he was ruddily stopped when Vice put his finger over his lips.

“Not now I’ve got to get back to class, meet me outside in the parking lot we’ll go for a drive and talk then” the taller boy then left the bathroom before Alexander could get another jibe in.

Vice stood outside in the school parking lot leaning up against a silver convertible with a cigarette in his mouth, he looked seeing Alexander walking up to him. He took another long drag on the cancer stick before flicking it on the ground and stepping on it. The smaller boy made a disgusted face.
“You came? Didn’t think you would” the older boy chuckled as Alexander climbed into the passenger seat Vice fallowed the suit only sitting in front of the steering wheel. He put the key into the ignition bringing the car to life before he pulled of the parking lot.

“You smoke too?” he snorted looking out the window instead of looking at his long time friend.

“Don’t be like that” Vice groaned in aggravation. Alexander didn’t look at him, he just continued to stare out the window. He didn’t speck for a long time, finally he did.

“You’ve changed” Alexander whispered in a shaking voice, Vice looked to him quickly. His friend continued to stare out the window. “What happened to you?”

“Alex?” he whispered. Alexander turned more keeping his face hidden from him, Vice’s face twisted up into a sad expression. “Alex” he whispered again.

“Mother smoked” Alex said finally. Vice’s eyes widened, he quickly parked the car on the side of the road, Alexander looked up as Vice leaned over pulling him into his arms, his hand pressed from the back of Alex’s head into this shoulder. “I’m still me” he whispered. “I’ll protect you like I promised, I’ll always be your friend” he assured him, tears streamed down his face as he wrapped his arms around his friend.

“I-I don‘t want to lose you too” he sobbed clinging to him like he would vanish if he didn’t hang on to him.

“Sssh I’m here now, it’s okay” he cooed smoothing out his soft raven hair. “I’m not going to die, I promise” Vice assured him. Vice pulled Alexander back so he could see his face, his eyeliner was smeared from crying. He chuckled and used his sleeve to whip away the tears and crimson make up leaving smudges on his sweater sleeve. “Don’t cry anymore” he smiled warmly at him. “I’m hungry do you want to get something to eat?” he asked. Alexander sniffed before nodding.

Fall turned to winter. Alexander and Vice sat in English class, this was a pretty bad class. There were a few trouble makers in the class, they had a habit of disrupting class and talking about inappropriate things. The teacher was going over the story they had just finished reading. A boy named Nora sat behind Vice, he had bleach white hair that framed around his face and deathly pale skin. “Vice got any gum?” he asked. The older boy turned to him shaking his head no.

“FUCK!” a student yelled with an intent to disrupt the class. The teacher glared at him. Seth put his hands up defensively. “My bad keep going” he smirked. She went back to reading when he yelled again. “SON OF A BITCH!” the class tried to stifle their laughter at his outburst, the teacher glared at him again.

“NORA!!” another yelled.

“WHAT!!” he yelled. They were screaming when they we’re sitting right next to each other.

“Are you coming to the spot?” he asked in a regular tone.

“Why?” the bleached boy asked.

“TO SMOKE A BLUNT!! YOU STUPID BITCH!!” he screamed. The class laughed, the teacher began writing him up.

“She’s writing you up” Seth said to Vain, the brunette made a face at her.

“Your writing me up?” he asked, the class giggled. She ignored him and continued writing, Vain got up and walked up to the teacher ripping the paper away from her. “Lets see you write me up now” he laughed tossed the yellows papers around the room.

“Get out!” she ordered. Vain smiled.

“Make me you stupid bitch” he yelled, tears swelled up in the teachers eyes.

“I mean it you get the fuck out of my class” she growled in frustration.

“You get the fuck out!!” he screamed. The women bit her lip before leaving the class to most likely cry in the bathroom. She always did this when they decided to scream at her. Vain screamed out the door at her. “Don’t fucking come back!!” he then slammed the door shut turning back to the class. Nora laughed along with Seth and Vice. The rest of the class tried to finished the lesson without the teacher. Alexander was one of them, Vain walked up to him and shoved his things off the desk. The boy stopped and looked up at him with a sharp glare.
“The teachers gone you can quit” he mused. Nora and Seth had the right idea, they sat on their desks with a cigarette in their mouth. Alexander made a disgusted face at them.
Vain raised an eyebrow at him.
“You don’t like to smoke?” he asked.

“No” Alexander snapped at him. Vice stood moving over to vain pushing him back a bit.

“Leave him alone?” he said nicely. The brunette put his hands up defensively.

“It’s cool, it’s cool. So you coming to the party tonight at my house?” he asked Vice.

“Yeah you could snag us some of the good stuff” Nora cheered flicking the cancer stick out the open window.

“Ooo chilly” Seth whined moving away from the open window. Vice sat on Alex’s desk top.

“Sure” he sighed before smirking. Alexander sighed.

“Have fun” he said dryly. Nora slung his arm around Alex’s neck pulling him close with a silly smile on his face.

“Come on emo kid, join us! You’ll have the experience of a life time” he beamed, the raven haired boy frowned.

“No thank you” he snapped. Vice smiled.

“Come on you don’t have to drink or anything like that, you could keep me out of trouble” the older boy assured him. Alexander made another face at Vice. “Ah-oh the face” he teased.
Vain sat on a desk smoking a cigarette, he leaned back on his free hand. Seth smirked and took his lighter and burned his finger causing the brunette to curse and jump off the desk checking his hand.

“Fucker” he cursed throwing his cigarette at him. Seth laughed dodging the smoking bud letting it fall on the floor. The brunette looked at his finger. “Damn it” he cursed putting it in his mouth. Seth picked up the bud and threw it out the window.

“Fuck I have gym next” Nora cursed walking away from Alexander to Vain.

“Skip” Seth said simply. Vain pulled his finger from his mouth to inspect his finger.

“Son of a bitch” he swore again putting the finger back in his mouth.

The group yelled and howled stupidly as they jumped around in the parking lot heading towards Vice’s car, Alexander sighed as he fallowed them. They jumped into the silver car still yelling stupidly, Vain smacked Seth up side the head for burning him. Vice made sure that Alexander got the front seat. The car peeled out of the parking lot with a loud squeal.
“Woooo” Nora cheered standing up in the car. Seth pulled him down.

“Sit the fuck down!”

The music was loud inside Vain’s house, it smelled of smoke and booze, the house was crowded with people that Alexander didn’t know at all, including some girls. The gothic boy made his way through the crowd of dancing people, he walked out back seeing that Vice along with some other people where there as well, it was snowing but they were dressed in warm clothes all laughing and having a good time.
Nora sat by the pool in a chair drinking a beer, Seth came up and kicked him backwards into the freezing water. The group laughed with the blaring music, Nora surface holding his beer up. “We’re good” he yelled. The white haired boy climbed out of the pool shivering, he went back inside to change his clothes.
Vice looked to Alexander.

“Alex!” he cheered slinging his arm around him holding a beer in his other. “You having fun?” Vice asked. The younger boy shook his head.

“Not really” he admitted. Seth was stumbling through the yard giggling uncontrollably over nothing, soon he fell and rolled around still laughing. Vain walked up to him laughing as well he held out his hand to help him up. “What wrong with him?” Alex asked. Vice turned looking behind him at his friends.

“Seth?” he’s tweaking don’t worry he’s fine” he said waving it off. “Come on lets go back inside before you freeze” he then lead Alexander back inside. Nora leaped down the stairs wearing new clothes, most likely Vain’s. The house was a mess with discarded cigarettes and empty beer bottles, the party went on late into the night. Alexander sat on the couch with Vice and Nora who was now passed out on the floor with a blanket thrown over him.
Two familiar boys walked up to Vice and Alexander, they were Vice’s friends that he was arguing with in the bathroom, there eyes were blood shot they were either drunk of under the influence of drugs. Vice raised an eyebrow.
“Hey” he mused.

“We need to talk outside” the on growled angrily. Vice told Alexander he’d be back before fallowing the two out into the backyard, Alex fallowed after them but waited in the kitchen instead of walking out into the cold.

“What is it?” Vice asked. The blond boy snarled at him.

“You’ve been lying to us” he growled. Vice raised an eyebrow again. “You’ve been stealing money from us!” he snapped angrily. Vice bit his lip, he had been pocketing more then he was supposed too from the drug sales behind there backs.

“I have no idea what your talking about” he said innocently. The blond glared at him.

“Don’t play dumb!!” the red haired boy yelled at him. Vice made a face.

“We trusted you and you screwed us over!” the blond screamed.

“That’s your own damn fault for trusting me” Vice snorted. “Yeah I’ve been pocketing more money, what are you going to do about it?” Vice challenged with confidence. The blond snarled clenching his fists tightly, his frame trembled with rage. Without warning the blond drew a gun and pointed it at Vice, the boys eyes widened.

“YOU SON OF A BITCH!” he screamed. The pierced boy quickly grabbed his wrist holding the gun, the two struggled against each other, the red haired boy joined it attack Vice with a knife.
Alexander heard a scream, he quickly stood and ran out the door seeing the three struggled over the gun. Vice had his back to him and the blond still held the gun tight in his hand.

“Vice!” Alexander yelled. The blond pulled the trigger. A loud shot rang out, the shot had missed Vice and shot behind him over his shoulder. The three stopped struggling shocked that the gun had fired, Vice turned to look behind him, his azure eyes widened in shock, his frame trembled with what might have been fear. A cold sweat ran down his face, there in the snow laid Alexander, blood pouring out of his head. Bathing the snow with the crimson elixir

“ALEXANDER!!!” Vice screamed running toward shim, the blond trembling still holding the gun, his eyes were wide as he came to the realization to what he had just done. Vice collapsed next to the boy cradling the blood boy in his arms tears streaming down his face. The two other boys dropped the gun and quickly ran leaving the party behind.
Vice screamed as the tears streamed down his hot face landing on Alexander’s blood face.
“You can’t fucking die! You didn’t do anything wrong!” he screamed. “I’m so sorry” he sobbed holding the boy tightly against his chest.

A small six year old boy with black hair sat on the ground sobbing, he was soaking wet sitting next to the river, another boy with raven hair kneeled in front of him. “don’t cry Alexander” boy older boy cooed pulling him into his arms. “Your okay stop crying now” the boy sniffled.

“V-Vice” he sobbed. Vice smiled. Vice had saved Alexander from drowning in the river.

“It’s okay You scared me I thought I‘d lost you” he assured him. “Your safe now, I’ll protect you always” Vice assured him.

“I’m so sorry” Vice sobbed. The snow continued to drift towards the earth.

Chapter 10 Snow day

Autumn pasted by, bringing winter to come. The air was cold a slow snow fall began to flutter down to the ground below, it was Christmas vacation in the all boys privet school. All most every student was going home for Christmas to spend the holiday with their family and friends back home. Almost every one except for Daiki and Takko. Daiki’s parents had invited him to spend Christmas with them but Daiki declined their offer saying he had to work on a school project, hey he couldn’t leave Rya here all by himself who knows what trouble he’d get into.
What was great about Christmas vacation was that the school would let you go of campus to shop in the town for Christmas presents.

Rya sat on Daiki’s bed as he got dressed in his winter clothes to go out shopping with Takko. The ashen boy tied his white scarf in place, he then turned to Rya.
“I really wish you could come with me Tenshi-kun but the suns out today” he sighed and pouted slightly. Rya sat on the bed leaning back on his hands.

“Do you want me to come with you Daiki?’ he asked with a slight smile. Daiki caught the smile and walked over to him, he leaned over him his hands on the bed by his hips.

“Spit it out Tenshi-kun what’s that smile for?” The white haired boy pressed, Rya smiled again a placed a quick cold kiss on his lips. Daiki blushed as he put his cold thumb on his lips brushing them idly.

“Well do you want me to come with you is the question Daiki” he teased.

“Yes” he said quickly.

“Well since it’s snowing out I came use magic to manipulate the clouds and block out the sun for 24 hours, meaning I can come with you”

“No way!!” Daiki yelled in surprise. “Well do that I want you to come with me” he commanded excitedly. Rya smiled and stood up and face the covered window. Takko entered the room with a huge smile on his face.
“Hellooooooo every one!!! Ready to go shopping!!” he cheered as he entered the room.
Daiki turned and smile at him, he grabbed his wallet and put it in his pocket.

“Hey Takko-kun” he greeted him as he walked into the middle of the room. The brunette grinned widely, Rya then opened the blinds. The sky was a bit darker, white snow still fluttered down to the ground. The Amaranth turned on his heel and smiled at them.

“I’ll meet you two at the gates to the school” he laughed and disappeared out he window.

“It’s so much colder now” a young girl complained to her friend. She had long black hair with a blue ribbon in her hair, she looked to be about sixteen years old with light colored skin. She was thin and had on a tight dark green school jacket and a light green skirt with long white baggy socks.
Her friend looked to be about eighteen years old with hand long light brown hair that was held up in pigtails that cascaded down past her waist, her bangs framed around her beautiful face. Her eyes were big and a dark purple color, her skin was a light peach, she was wearing a light purple flowered kimono with a red obi belt that was tied into a giant bow behind her back,. The women glared at the sky as her friend playful breathed to see her breath. She then turned to her friend.
“Hey Fuyu-chan what’s wrong?” she asked.

“This weather isn’t natural the sun quickly vanished completely making the temperature drop as well” Fuyu stated. The younger girl looked up at the sky.

“Do you think a demon did this?” she whispered in a small voice. The women nodded and looked up at the pale boy that was leaning up against the gate to the boys privet school. The younger girl looked at the beautiful boy up a head. “Hey Look Fuyu-chan that boys gorgeous” she pointed out giggling, she then grabbed Fuyu’s hand and pulled her towards the boy. “Come on lets talk to him, maybe I can get his number”
Rya stood with his arms crossed on his chest his back leaning against the wall. The snow lightly fell in his raven tresses, his eyes were closed. The girl pulled Fuyu to stand in front of the boy.
“Hello there my names Amehana Utsukusii and this is Fuyu what’s your name?” she chirped. Rya opened one of his scarlet eyes to see who was talking to him, then he sighed and closed them again. Amehana laughed. “Kyaaa you have such pretty eyes, look Fuyu there scarlet how pretty” she pointed out. Rya’s eyebrow twitched. Fuyu glared at him. The younger girl leaned closer to him. “Hey you don’t talk much do you? Are you shy?” she questioned. Fuyu examined him then her eyes widened.

“Kura-I Ouji” Fuyu said quickly. The boy opened on of his scarlet eyes in question, he then opened the other and looked at Fuyu. Amehana did the same turning to her. Rya sighed.

“Do I know you?” he said simply. Fuyu smiled.

“No you don’t but I’ve heard a lot about you Ryakamimugin-sama”

“OH! Is that his name? he’s a demon then! Cool I had no idea no wonder you didn’t want to talk to me” she laughed. “Hey Rya-san what kind of demon are you?” she chirped.

“He’s an Amaranth” Fuyu answered for her knowing Rya probably wouldn’t answer her. “Kami-sama where’s the Junichi I wan to meet him if that’s okay with you” she asked with a bow.

“Tenshi-kun” a voice called as the boy walked past he gate. Daiki and Takko looked at Rya then he looked to the two women that stood with him. “Um Tenshi-kun who are they?” he began.

“OH my your cute too, what’s your name? my names Amehana Utsukishii but you can just call me Ame-chan okay” she squeaked with a happy smile. Daiki’s face flushed again this was so embarrassing. Takko smiled.

“Daiki-kun it looks like somebody likes you” he teased. Ame looked to Takko and smiled.

“OH what’s your name?”

“I’m Takko and this is Daiki-kun”

“Daiki-kun oh that’s such a cuuuute name” she giggled at the name. “And what did you call Rya-chan, Tenshi-kun right that’s s just adorable” she laughed. Daiki walked up to Rya, trying to ignore the very annoying Ame.

“Tenshi-kun who are they? He pressed again. Rya looked to him from his place on the wall.

“Um I forget, how are you guys again?” Ame fell over while Fuyu sweat dropped. The younger girl jumped back up.

“My names Amehana! Or Ame for short! Don’t forget it!” she yelled. Rya frowned at her. Fuyu stepped forward and put her hand on her chest.

“I’m Fuyu Hyo I’m very pleased to meet you Daiki-chan” she bowed. Daiki bowed to her as well. “I’m an ice demon and Ame-chan is a guardian of the flower mist” she explained.

“Oh” Daiki said slowly. Rya rolled his eyes with annoyance having Takko was enough now he had these two. The taller women smiled at Daiki, then she turned to Rya.

“Kami-sama” Fuyu said to get the attention of the small demon boy. Rya acknowledge her with a short glance with his scarlet eyes. “Yutomi-sama said-”

“I don’t care!” he snapped with an icy voice. The tall women froze a little startled by his tone of voice. “I don’t care what Yutomi has to say or what he thinks! He can kiss my ass! I’m not taking orders from him anymore!” Rya glared at her with his scarlet eyes. Fuyu swallowed and regained her posture.

“So it’s true Kami-sama? You really did betray-”

“I didn’t betray anyone!!” he screamed at her. The group stood speechless at the fight that had broke out. “I’m now fallowing my own path!!” Rya closed his eyes and opened them again, his eyes flared with scarlet flames. “And if you stand against me, I’ll kill you” he whispered in a murderous tone. Daiki stared confused at the two, Ame frowned and stood next to Fuyu.

“Rya-kun obey or pay the price” Ame threatened. Rya smirked and pulled Daiki to stand near him. The small girl glared at him.

“I think I’ll take my chances” he muttered. Fuyu looked at him with pleading eyes.

“Kami-sama we don’t want to have to fight you, but we will if we must” she moved her hand to reach into the obi and pulled out a flute. Rya smirked at her still holding Daiki tightly.

“If it’s a fight your looking for then you’ve got one” the Amaranth challenged. “How about you pick the place that way you’ll have an advantage”

“Cocky brat! The park! We’ll fight at the park!” the group took off towards the park, Daiki told Takko to stay behind and do some shopping on his own. The brunette haired boy nodded and watched as they walked away.

Chapter 11 the challenge

The group stood in the middle of a park, the park was empty of people and surrounded by a cement wall. Snow fell steadily to the ground below, a cold wind blew moving the swings slightly. Ame stood holding a lance in her hands, Fuyu stood further back holding a small flute near her mouth. The Amaranth stood across from her holding a small black gun in his hand, another guest of wind blew making his jacket flutter with the breeze.
Daiki stood away from the group near the wall, his white hair blew into his face. Ame growled and raised her lance as she charged at him, Fuyu pulled her flute to her mouth and blew. The young girl swung her lance at the Amaranth, Rya quickly stepped back dodging the strike with a smirk on his face. Ame growled and pulled her lance back to swing again, Rya jumped up grabbing the handle of the lance with his free hand restricting her movement, he then pulled up his gun to shoot. Ice spears shot up at Rya from the ground, the ice shot towards Rya, the demon boy quickly weaved his way out of the ices way jumping back out of the ices reach.
The ice recoiled back into the ground, Ame shoot forward again. She stabbed her lance at him again, Rya ducked under the blade and pulled up his gun again, Ame quickly pulled back and swung down on him, Rya caught the blade with his hand. Suddenly hundreds of ice spikes shot up from the ground under Rya, the ice quickly built up into a tower of ice. The Amaranth was taken up with the ice, Fuyu stopped playing her flute halting the ice tower.

“Kami-sama please surrender we don’t want hurt you” The women pleaded. Suddenly the ice tower shattered, tiny ice shards fell to the snow covered ground. Rya fell down holding a scythe in his hands, he swung down on Ame, an ice wall quickly built up catching the blade before it hit the girl. Ice quickly froze around the blade of the scythe, Rya let go of the scythe and jumped up into the air landing on the top of the slide behind Fuyu and Ame. Blood ran down his face, his scarlet eyes flared as he raised his hand.

“Hell is calling for you” he yelled as another giant scythe appeared in his hands. Ame quickly ran up to the slide, she raised her hand into the air as it glower with a crimson light. A cloud of pink flower petals flew wildly around the slide, the flowers swirled around Rya cutting his flesh. The Amaranth stood fast in place letting the flowers scrap his skin, Ame jumped up onto the playground railing, she dashed towards the slide and leaped into the air, she swung her lance down on Rya.
The Amaranth smirked and vanished from sight letting the lance crash into the empty space. Ame quickly pulled her lance close to her as she readied for another go, Rya appeared a ways from her still holding his scythe in his hands. The girl growled and raised her lance again, she stood and pointed it at him. The cloud of red flowers once again swarmed in around him, Rya quickly vanished from sight again, he appeared in front of Ame his scythe gleamed as it was swung at her. Another wall of ice caught the blade again, Ame leaped over the wall of ice, she raised her lance and swung it down on Rya, the dark boy quickly jumped back dodging the blade, Ame landed in the empty space where Rya once stood. She again charged at him her lance was in a position to stab him, Rya nimbly jumped up over the blade pulling gun from his jacket again, he fell back to the ground catching himself on his free hand.
Ame quickly stabbed at him again, the dark boy swiftly moved away from the blade again. He pulled up his gun and quickly shot at her, a wall of ice stopped the bullet from it’s target. Fuyu continued to play her flute in a tone to attack Rya, a large ice spear shot up from the snow at Rya, the Amaranth dodged the spear as another came up after that one, he nimbly flipped away from the frozen water, Ame moved in to attack. Rya landed soundlessly on in the snow as Ame attacked him again, she swung her lance down at him, The dark boy quickly rolled away from the attack. He then jumped up on the heights of the playground, the young girl growled and went after him. Rya moved onto the wide bridge and turned on his heal to face Ame as she attacked, Rya dodged the attack and shot at her, another wall of ice blocked the bullet. Rya growled and shot again at her hitting the ice, suddenly the ice moved in around her creating an ice like mail to protect her.
Ame attacked again swinging her lance, Rya jumped up onto the railing of the bridge again he shot at her but the bullet just bounced off the ice mail. The girl again swung her lance at him as he stood on the metal rail, Rya leaped over the blade quickly vanished again. He appeared again over Ame head holding an all back katana in his hands, he swung down on her as she parried the assault with he lance. Rya’s blade stopped on the handle of the lance, Ame pushed Rya off and attacked him again. Their blades danced clashing together violently, both parried each others attacks and come back at each other with more force then before. With each swing both got more aggressive and drawn into the match of blades.
Rya quickly jumped up onto the railing then he jumped back onto the snow covered ground away from the fray. Ame quickly fallowed him, Ice shot up at Rya as he quickly dodged them, the young girl growled and swung at him again, Rya caught the blade and pushed her away to swing at her again. Daiki watched restlessly as the fight drew on, he swallowed the lump in his throat trying to stay calm. Rya continued his combo of agile assaults on her, he danced away from her blade and attacked her again. Ame quickly parried him again making her own step towards him, her blade scraped his arm as he dodged the attack. He ignored the wound and swung at her again, his blade smashed against hers. Rya then jumped back and drew up with his sword again, Ame parried his sword and struck at him again.
He quickly grabbed her lance with his hand and drew his sword back, he quickly thrusted his katana at her. The blade hit her ice armor and stopped, Ame quickly pulled her lance away from him and swung at him. Rya parried her attack and jumped back away from her, he moved his hands around in a wide circle in front of him. Flames danced from his hands and quickly scorched their way towards Ame, the young girl jumped away from the flames as her armor began to melt away reviling her stomach. Rya appeared before her and stabbed his sword into to her stomach, Ame screamed in pain as Rya quickly pulled his blade from her stomach and fell quickly to the ground. The girl fell to the ground clutching her wound with her free hand, blood slowly oozed from behind her fingers.
Fuyu quickly played another melody, more ice spears quickly shot from the ground at the Amaranth. Rya quickly jumped and flipped away dodging the ice assault, the ice continued to fly at him from different directions all around him. The older women continued to play commanding the ice to attack faster, Rya dodged every ice knife that came at him, he then jumped back away from another ice knife, when another quickly sprung up and grazed his stomach. Rya growled and moved away from the ice knife as another came up, the demon boy raised his sword and cut through the ice he then vanished again. Ice quickly formed around Fuyu’s flute creating a sword to parry Rya’s katana. The demon appeared before her with a large scythe in his hands, he swung at her as she quickly moved away from the blade.
She then flung her hand at him sending thousands of ice shards flying at him, Rya held up his scythe to block to oncoming shards from hitting him, the shards slammed and broke against the hard scythe’s surface. The Amaranth then jumped up away from the cloud of ice and came at Fuyu again, the ice demon quickly dispersed the ice around her flute and played a quick tune, ice shot up all around Rya attacking him as he ran at her. The dark demon sliced through the ice and came at her, another ice knife come up in front of him, Rya vanished again he the appeared behind Fuyu. The startled ice demon gasped as she tried to turn and face him, suddenly Ame appeared behind Fuyu to fend off Rya with her lance, she raised her lance to catch the scythe, a chain weaved around the handle of her lance. The chain was connected to the bottom of Rya’s large scythe, the Amaranth pulled back on his scythe snatching the lance away from Ame’s hands. The young girl gasped as Rya vanished and appeared before her again, he quickly swung his scythe down on her, Fuyu quickly turned and played another tune. A wall of ice came up and caught the blade again, Rya growled and pulled away again. Ame fell to her hands knees clutching her wound with one hand the other was pressed against the ground. She gave Rya a smirk.

“Bye-bye Rya-chan” she whispered in a low voice. Suddenly a crowd of clumped together tin thorned vines shot up from the snow at Rya, the vines slashed at the empty space where he once stood. Ame’s eyes widened when a cold blade pressed against her neck.

“Goodbye Ame” a dark voice whispered as the cold blade was still held in place on her neck, the young girl fainted and fell into the snow as Rya pulled his scythe away. Fuyu gasped and ran towards the fainted girl, she kneeled down in the snow next to her and held her in her lap. She was still breathing she must have past out from fear or loss of blood. Rya adverted way from them as his scythe vanished, he put his hands in his pockets and began to walk slowly towards Daiki when he felt something cold press against the nape of his neck. Rya stopped in mid-step and turned slightly to see who was behind him. Fuyu stood with an ice blade pressed against his neck.

“We’re not finished yet Kmai-sama” she whispered coolly. Rya turned away and began to walk forward again.

“Yes we are” he muttered. Fuyu gasped and looked down at her stomach, embedded there was a small dagger. The ice demon coughed up blood and fell to into the snow. Daiki ran up to him to walk beside him. Rya smiled at him and placed his hand on his head.

Chapter 12 The little things you do for me

Daiki sighed as he entered his room, Rya sat on the chair waiting for him. The ashen boy closed the door behind him and locked it returning the keys to his pocket. Takko was still shopping but as soon as he comes home he’d have to do his homework so he would be busy for a while. Daiki walked up to the Amaranth touched some of his small cuts on his arms and head, he then shook his head then he walked into the bathroom and coaxed Rya to come with him. The bathroom was of medium size with a sink and wall mirror by the door and a large bathtub on the other side of bathroom near the toilet. He turned on the water in the tub and tested it until it was at the right temperature, the water flowed quickly into the pure white tube. The ashen boy then turned to the Amaranth.

“Okay to get you cleaned up so take off your clothes and get in the tub” he said motioning towards the tube. Rya cocked his head and smiled. Daiki gave him a funny look. “What’s that smile for?” he questioned. Rya gently cupped Daiki’s face and leaned his lips close to the ashen boy.

“Will Daiki get a bath with me?” he asked innocently. Daiki’s face flushed as his lips gently pressed to his own.

“Ummm?” he started to think about it. “Sure okay I guess if you really want to” His face flushed even brighter he then walked over to the sink and crouched down in front of it’s cabinets. He opened it and pulled out a bottle of what looked like bubble bath, he stood over the tub and poured it in until a mass of white bubbles covered the water below. Daiki then put the bottle away and turned back to Rya, he cover his eyes and turned away signaling that it was okay for him to change now. Rya took off his jacket and tossed it aside, he then removed his shirt and shoes.
When was finished undressing he climbed into warm bath water, the bubbles tickled his bare skin as he sat in the large tube waiting for Daiki.

“Okay I’m in your turn” He called in childish voice, Daiki turned to him and blushed again. Rya smile and covered his eyes mimicking what Daiki had done. The ashen boy sighed and carefully removed his clothing, he then joined Rya in the tub. Daiki sat on the other end of the tub facing the Amaranth, the bubbles obscured the depths of the tub below.

“Okay you can uncover your eyes now” He whispered a little embarrassed at the awkward moment. Rya uncovered his eyes and smiled at him again. Daiki’s face flushed again as he gazed at Rya’s perfectly pale and smooth chest. The Amaranth gave him a small smile and waved to him. Daiki sighed and turned around to look for the shampoo behind him, suddenly he felt a pair of cold arms wrap around his neck resting on his shoulders. Daiki’s face flushed again.
‘He didn’t just’

“Daiki I’ll wash your hair for you if you’ll let me” a passionate voice whispered in his ear and was barely heard over the running water. The ashen boy grabbed the shampoo and conditioner and handed it to Rya. “Thank you” he chirped. Rya positioned Daiki to sit comfortably as he took a cup and filled it with water from the tub and carefully poured it over his silken tresses. He then got some shampoo on his hand and began to gently rub the substance around in his hair.
Daiki sat quietly as he washed his hair. His fingers felt good running through his hair. Rya finished washing his hair then he rinsed it out and began to use the conditioner. After he finished that he rinsed it again. He then wrapped his arms around Daiki again. “See that wasn’t so bad now was it?” the Amaranth cooed lightly as he nipped at Daiki’s ear. The ashen boy smile and turned to him.

“Okay my turn” he smiled lightly almost enjoying the idea. Rya gave him a smile and turned his back to him. Daiki took the cup of water and did the same to Rya. Soon he finished washing his hair completely, Daiki smiled and laughed a little. Rya turned back to him, Daiki grabbed the wet rag and began to gently scrub away the blood from his face and arms. Soon the two were done bathing, Rya stood up and got out grabbing a towel and wrapping it around himself. The Amaranth then grabbed a towel for Daiki, the ashen boy stood up and took it from him wrapping it around himself as well.
He then pulled the plug and walked out of the bathroom leaving Rya to get dressed. Daiki walked over to his dresser, he pulled open the drawer and then he then pulled out some clothes for him to wear. He pulled on his white boxers and a white tang top, Rya walked out of the bathroom wearing his old clothes again, the Amaranth then gave Daiki a small smile as he walked over to the sit on the bed.
The ashen boy smiled and walked up to him, he cupped his face with his hands and planted a kiss on his lips. Daiki then turned away from him to finish getting dressed when a pair of strong arms gently pulled him back to the bed to sit on his lap. Rya then began to place soft kisses on the nape of Daiki’s neck, the ashen boy giggled at the touches. The Amaranth then leaned to whisper in Daiki’s ear.

“I love you” he cooed, his cold breath tickled his ear. The ashen boy reached out and grabbed the remote to his stereo, he turned it on and put it on repeat. The song that began playing was by Gackt the song was called Rain. Daiki then turned in Rya’s arms, he kneeled on the bed over Rya and leaned down to kiss his lips. The ashen boy licked his bottom lip begging for an entrance to his mouth. Rya parted his lips allowing Daiki to explore his wet inside, Daiki’s tongue flicked around in his mouth dancing with Rya’s tongue as well. The ashen p laced his on hand on Rya’s shoulder the other was placed behind his neck. The Amaranth then slipped his hand up Daiki’s white shirt to feel his chest, Rya tongue plunged into Daiki’s mouth. The ashen boy licked the roof of Rya’s wet mouth, his tongue probed around inside of him feeling the soft surface of his mouth. Rya’s eyes slide shut as they kissed, a warm wet fluid ran from the corner of his mouth, Daiki broke the kiss and licked up the fluid and began to kiss him again.
Rya self consciously fell back onto the bed, Daiki leaned over him his tongue traced around inside of his mouth. Rya’s cold hand reached up to tease Daiki’s nipple, he gently twisted it around his fingers sending wave of pleasure through Daiki. The ashen boy’s face flushed with heat and passion, a warm sweat ran down his face. Daiki gently pulled Rya’s shirt off of his back and tossed it aside, his fingers traced down his pale chest. Daiki then began to place soft warm kisses along his neck to his caller bone then he drifted down to his navel. Rya moaned quietly as he began to lick and tease his stomach. Daiki’s tongue traced up his stomach back up to his mouth again, Rya sat up on his elbow, his other hand kept teasing his nipple.
Daiki passionately kissed Rya, his tongue finding its way into his wet mouth again, the Amaranth then rolled himself to lean over top of Daiki, his hand still was connected to his chest, his tongue twirled around in Daiki’s mouth. The ashen boy wrapped his arms around his neck as if to keep him there, his body felt painfully tight and every touch just made his body feel tighter.

Rya’s hand then lingered drifting down wards towards Daiki’s hard center. He continued to kiss him passionately as he tucked his hand under his boxers, he gently grabbed hold of his hard length and began to massage it. Daiki moaned at the continued touches around his sensitive area, his face flushed with a passionate heat as he continued to kiss his Amaranth. Rya laid down on the bed next to Daiki his mouth was now pressed to his soft warm neck, his hand continued to rubbed up and down his length. Daiki moaned and breathed heavily in gasps at the prolonged touches, Rya’s was then removed from his pants. Daiki then began to kiss his lovers pale chest, his tongue flicked out to taste his cold skin. Rya moaned softly at the touch of Daiki’s lips and tongue on his chest. Rya then rolled to lean over Daiki, his hand drifted back to pull up Daiki’s legs a little, Daiki sat up on his elbows still breathing heavily. He then pressed his lips to Daiki’s, his hand pulled up his boxers some, his fingers stroked his entrance before slipping in. Daiki scream silently as he plunged deeper into him, Rya moved his fingers gently inside of him allowing Daiki to feel every movement. One of Daiki’s hands came up to hold the nape of Ray’s neck, his fingers curled in his still wet silken tresses.
He moaned with pleasure his breath was heavy, his face flushed with an intense heat. Daiki then fell back and began to fumble over Rya’s belt trying to undo it, finally he manages to undo his belt. He then pulled down Rya’s black pants, the Amaranth helped Daiki remove his pants tossing them to the floor as well. The Amaranth then removed his fingers and licked them with his wet tongue, Daiki breathed heavily as he sat up and wrapped his arms around Rya’s neck, he leaned close to his ear to whisper into it.

“I love you and I want you inside me” Daiki said panting. The Amaranth pulled Daiki’s legs to wrap them around his waist then he slowly and carefully pushed himself inside of Daiki.
“Ah” the sound came involuntarily in response to the pain inside him, his fingers curled in his hair. Rya began to move slowly in and out of Daiki, the ashen boy moaned unable to control himself. The Amaranth began to move a little faster putting a bit more force behind himself, Rya pushed roughly into Daiki hitting a spot that made his head buck, Daiki’s hands clutched his shoulders tightly. Rya hit the spot hard again, Daiki gasped as he bucked again. Rya continued to go a littler faster, Daiki continued to silently scream at the renewed movements. Rya hit the spot again making Daiki buck and gasp again. The Amaranth then collapsed beside Daiki, a small smile was wore on his face.
Daiki gasped and looked over to the boy laying next to him, Rya pulled the covers over them and snuggled against the ashen boy.
Daiki rolled over to face him, Rya wrapped his arms around the ashen boys neck. The ashen boy then giggled to himself.

“What are you giggling abou-Ah” Rya gasped when he felt Daiki press in fingers inside of him, he moved them in and out pushing them in as far as he could. Daiki smiled at Rya as his face flushed with heat, he moaned quietly as Daiki moved his fingers roughly around inside of him. The ashen boy then gently kissed Rya on his neck as he pushed himself in farther. Rya gasped his fingers curling in his hair. Daiki then pulled his fingers from inside of him, he then gently slipped himself inside of Rya. The Amaranth moaned again with absolute bliss. Daiki quickly thrusted himself deeper into him, Rya bucked a little a the movement. The ashen boy continued to move inside of him with more force then the first thrust. Rya moaned, his face began heated again. Daiki then pulled himself from Rya and snuggled closer to him, his arms wrapped around his waist. Rya’s hand stroked the back of Daiki’s hair.
“So that’s what you were giggling about” the Amaranth said between gasps. Daiki nodded and pressed his lips to his throat.

“Yeah pretty much, you reaction to it was cute” he said smiling. Rya smiled back and kissed his forehead.

“So was yours”

Chapter 13 Called out

Daiki’s eyes fluttered open meting the pale chest of his lover, the ashen boy smiled and snuggled closer to him his face nuzzled his cold neck.

“You awake?” a soft voice cooed. Daiki smiled and nodded into his neck. Rya laughed lightly and held him closer. “Don’t you have class to get to?” Daiki jumped up right to look at the clock on his desk top.

“Shit I over slept!” he yelled as he quickly climbed out of bed throwing the covers to the side. Rya sat up in the bed leaning against the back board of the bed, Daiki quickly put on his black and white uniform he then ran off to the bathroom to brush his teeth and hair. The Amaranth laughed quietly as the boy struggled to get ready for school, the raven haired boy then crawled out of bed and began getting dressed.
The ashen boy dashed out of the bathroom and grabbed his bag and headed for the door, he stopped at the door and turned to Rya.
“Be good, I love you” he added with a smile. Rya waved him off as he headed out the door. The Amaranth then clenched the small crumbled piece of paper in his hand, he then lifted his hand to look at the paper.

Meet me at the arch in the woods when the sky turns gray, come alone. If you refuse I’ll come after the Junichi that you’ve taken a liking too

--Netsu & Satsu

Rya crushed the paper in his hand and tossed it in the trash, he then finished getting dressed. He pulled on his jacket and placed his gun in the hold on his upper leg. He then turned to the window to peek out the sky, the clouds were beginning to turn gray and come together to block out the sun. Rya then reached under the bed the pulled the dark wooden box from under the bed, he then opened it.

The began to turn darker by the minute. A women with long cascading pink hair sat on the edge of the stone arch. She had light colored skin and dull red eyes, she was wearing a tight white outfit with silver mail covering her arms and legs. The women sighed and kicked her feet with boredom.
“Is he even coming Satsu-kun? I mean you left that note for him to find on then window sill last night, he had plenty of time to come by now” she complained to the older man.

“He’ll come Netsu-chan be patient” He sighed with a small smile. Satsu had long cascading raven hair with crimson highlights, his bright crimson eyes gleamed. He was tall and thin, he wore a long white dress shirt and tight black pants, his shirt was partly unbuttoned reviling part of his chest and black chocker was fastened around his neck. Netsu sighed and leaned back on her hands.

“I just wish he’d hurry the hell up” she pouted. The older man smiled.

“But just think Netsu-chan if he doesn’t show then you get to torture that little Junichi to death” Netsu smiled.

“Then I hope he doesn’t show I’ve got some really good ideas” she chirped. ”I’ve even got a place set up to play with the little Junichi” she admitted with a smile. Satsu smiled.

“To bad setting up was all wasted effort” The two looked out at the lake below them, a beautiful boy with locks of raven standing on the waters surface. His scarlet eyes were narrows on the two demons. “You won’t even have a chance to fantasize about your so called methods of torture” Rya taunted with a dark voice. Antipathy was in his eyes, it flared and dance their were it was set free for others to view behind scarlet walls.
Netsu stuck her tongue out at him.

“Meanie watch me I’ll torture you then I’ll make you watch as I torture the Junichi” she scoffed in a childish voice.

“That’s if you can touch me” Rya taunted with a smooth face, the cherry haired girl stood up and drew her sword, she then lunched her self at him. She swung her sword at him, the Amaranth easily stepped back to dodge the strike. Netsu began to raid Rya with a flurry of attacks, the raven boy agile moved parried her attacks by merely stepping out of the way of her blade. The cherry haired girl growled with frustration as she continued her frontal attack, Rya continued to dodge the sword he soon gave her a mocking smile as he dodged.
“You have to want it” he teased her. Netsu growled at him her blood boiled with rage as she attacked him with full force, still he dodged quickly barely moving away from her. He gave her a small smile barring his pearly white fangs, Netsu stabbed her sword at him, Rya jumped onto the blade forcing it down to the ground with his weight. The cherry haired girl’s eyes widened as he swiftly pulled his gun from it’s holster, he then shot her in the shoulder, the women then screamed in pain and recoiled pulling her sword away out from under him. Rya jumped back landing soundlessly on the water, Netsu crouched on the water holding her shoulder, a thick crimson flow ran through her fingers.
“That was your only warning shot, the next time I won’t miss” Satsu smiled at him.

“Well, well lets begin then shall we”

Chapter 14 Defeated

Blood. A thick crimson flow was soaked across the white stone arch, Rya rested on his hands and knees still clutching his gun in his hand. A warm red fluid ran from his lips, his breathing was shallow. Blood dripped from his wounds. Empty glass bottles lay scattered along the stone arch. Satsu walked towards one of the bottle that laid in front of the Amaranth, he then picked it up in his hand and gave Rya a small smirked.

“A blood substitute? How disappointing your true power is being held back you haven’t had anything to drink in a long time your power is only a small part of what is used to be, what’s wrong won’t the little Junichi give you his blood?” Satsu’s dark voice teased the dark boy.

“I would never take blood from Daiki” he muttered. Rya tightened his grip on his gun, the cherry haired girl grabbed Rya by his raven tresses pulling his head back to look at her.

“I told you that I would torture you didn’t I Ryakamimugin” Rya’s scarlet eyes glared at the cherry haired women.

“Go to hell” he whispered icily. Netsu gripped his hair tighter making him flinch in pain slightly.

“Yes I probably will” Satsu tossed the empty bottle into the lake, the glass bottle quickly sunk under the crystal waves.

“It’s getting dark out, my, my that fight lasted for a while, Netsu-chan go send a message to the Junichi he’s probably wondering where his Amaranth is about now”

Daiki opened the door to his dorm, he walked in and closed the door behind him.
“Tenshi-kun I’m back” the ashen boy looked around the empty room, he tossed his bag to his bed. “Tenshi-kun?” Daiki called as he walked towards the bathroom, he opened the door only to see an empty bathroom completely devoid of the person he was looking for.
‘Where is he?’
“Rya-kun? Rya-kun?” he called again. “where are you?” he whispered walking out into his bedroom, he glanced over to his desk and saw a piece of paper under a red rose. Daiki walked over to the paper and picked up the rose along with the paper.

Dear Daiki
Sorry if you got this letter then I’m not home yet, but don’t worry I will be home soon after I ‘m finished. Please wait there. And please don’t worry about me.

~Ryakmaimugin
P. s I Love you

Daiki stared at the paper for a long time then he looked at the red rose on his hand.
‘Rya? Where did you go?’
The ashen boy then looked out the open window into the gray sky.
“I can’t help but worry” he muttered.

“Aw how cute” Daiki quickly spun around to look behind him. There seated on his bed was a women with cascading cherry hair and dull red eyes. “I have a massage for you Junichi”

“Wha-”

“We have your Amaranth, if you want to see him again you’ll come with me do you understand?” she cut him off. “Well it’s up to you Junichi will you comply?” Daiki glared at her.

“You better not have hurt him you witch”

The women took Daiki to the arch were Satsu waited, Daiki walked up the white stone arch he froze in place when he saw Rya being held by the back of his callor of his jacket.
“R-Rya!” he yelled taking a step towards him. “Rya!? Rya answer me!” Rya’s body stayed limp and lifeless, red blood stained his clothes and hair. Tears swelled up in Daiki’s gray eyes. “Please no” be begged as the tears ran down his face. “Please Rya answer me” he whispered. Satsu gave him a small smile as held up the small boy by his callor.

“What’s wrong? Are you sad because he’s not answering you anymore I hate to brake it to you but” the man smiled darkly. “He can’t answer you anymore” Daiki shook his head as the tears fell quickly down his face. “His death is your fault”

“No! you bastard you’re the one who killed Tenshi-kun! You’re the murder!” the ashen boy screamed.

“Tenshi-kun? So that’s what he is to you? Your angel? Junichi your angel would have lived if you would have given him what he needed” Daiki’s eyes widened. “Your so called Angel would have survived if you would have just given him what he needed”

“Lair! I’ve given everything to Tenshi!” he screamed clenching his fists tightly.

“Blood, he needed blood to be strong, that blood substitute could only sustain him for so long” Satsu finished stroking Rya’s raven tresses.

“What are you talking about?! I don’t understand this at all! I have no idea why this is happening to me!!” he screamed falling to his knees. “Please just give him to me” he sobbed remembering his Amaranth clearly in his mind. He could remember everything about him the way he smelled of roses, his cold smooth skin, his silken tresses and most immortality his voice.

You awake?

I love you

What are you giggling abo-

Okay I’m in your turn

Aishitemasu
Tears streamed down Daiki’s face, all of the memories he held dear were the ones that he shared with him. For the first time in his life he was absolutely happy with someone, and now his lover his only love was gone. “Please just give him back, please” he begged to no one in particular. Satsu tossed the dead body at Daiki’s feet, the body landed limply on the stone floor. Daiki quickly wrapped his arms around him lithe frame pulling him up to rest on his lap.
He then stroked a piece of his raven hair from his pale face. Even now when he was covered in blood like this he was still beautiful. The ashen boy pulled Rya close to his chest holding him tightly in his arms.
‘Ryakamimugin I’m so sorry this was all my fault’

“So Rya never told you any thing about what’s supposed to happen to you?” Satsu jeered lightly feeling the blade of his sword.

“Shut up” Daiki whispered. “Just shut up” Satsu smirked and raised his sword to Daiki’s throat, Netsu did the same from behind him. Daiki held Rya closer twisting his eyes shut.
‘I don’t care if I die..’

“Goodbye Junichi”

Life isn’t worth living if your not here’

Twilight ending

Chapter 3 Memories that keep you near

The kitsune made a fire in the woods of the forest. The roaring camp fire crackled and popped. Io sat leaning against a tree, Eldfell lay sleeping in the space between hi legs his head rested on his chest. Io arms lay wrapped around his lithe frame. The fire cast light shadows across the two boys. Io began to stroke Eldfell’s raven locks with his dark blue painted fingers. The kitsune yawned and kept stocking his hair. Eldfell lay asleep on his chest, his mouth was slightly parted, a rouge raven lock hung in his face.
The kitsune held him tightly still playing with his hair.
‘I remember how you got your name Eldfell, I also remember when and how you came into my life’

The kitsune walked to the river and saw a small raven haired boy standing by the river. His gray skin glowed in the moon light, his longish short raven hair framed his face, his red eyes gleamed and seemed to glow in the darkness. Black wings came from his back. He was wearing a tight sleeveless black tang top and black pants that molded to his lithe frame. Strange black marking came up his arms.
Io stood and watched the small demon stare into the pools of the river.

“Hey!” he called to him. The demon turned to him, his emotionless face was gray and forlorn. The kitsune walked up to the demon. The winged demon stared at him his eyes widened with fear, he then stepped back tripping and falling backwards on the ground. Io chuckled and held out his hand to the demon.
“For a demon your awful clumsy, hey will you come with me?” he asked with a smile. The demon’s eyes widened in shock, he then slowly reached out and grabbed his hand. The kitsune helped him stand up he then lead him back up the river path.
A group of bandits stood waiting for Io to return. The kitsune returned with the demon behind him. The group stared at him with wide eyes. The kitsune smiled and pulled the demon in front of him.
“This is a young demon I think he can help us with some of your goals don’t you think” the kitsune smiled patting the demon on the head. The demon gave him a small smile.

“Good job Io now we’ll be unstoppable with two demons on our side” on bandit cheered.

“We’ll be rolling in the riches soon” the other yelled happily. Suddenly the demon boy clutched his head and breath heavily. The man stopped cheering and looked at the demon. The dark demon fell to his knees clutching it’s head, it body suddenly stared to change it form. His hair hung in his face and his skin began to gin some color to it the black markings disappeared. His wings recoiled back into his back disappearing from sight. His skin turned pale white his eyes stopped glowing and turned a dull red.
He then looked back up at the bandits. His face and body was human. The bandits made a discussed face at him.

“A half breed!” one of the men yelled. Io stared at the now human boy with wide eyes.

“He’s no good” another said.

“He’s worthless!” another spat. One of the bandits drew his sword and walked towards the boy. The dark boy winced and put down his head to stare at the ground as if offering himself to be killed.

“Stop” Io said calmly. The bandit with the sword looked at him. The kitsune then walked around to kneel in front of the half breed.
“Were are you from little one?” he asked. The boy looked up at him.

“I-I can’t remember, I don’t know anything about myself or even were I am, I can only remember from moments ago when you came to me” he said with a small voice.

“Do you remember your name?” he questioned. The boy shook his head no. his face seemed distant and far away. The kitsune then smiled and wrapped his arms around the boy pulling him close.
“Eldfell, that will be you r name form now on sound good?” the boy then wrapped his arms around the kitsune’s frame. Feeling a sudden bliss wash over him.

Io then smiled and yawned, his finger still idly brushing through his hair. His eyes became heavy and fluttered closed.
The two slept for a while. Eldfell woke up a while later. His eyes eased open suddenly aware of his surroundings. He then sat up and looked up at the sleeping kitsune. Eldfell then brushed a lock of his dull golden hair form his eyes. Eldfell smiled and rested his chin on his caller bone staring up at the kitsune.
‘I owe you all of what I am, I will do anything for you because you saved me from myself, I will..’
Eldfell leaned his face closer to Io’s until his lips were inches away from Io’s.
‘..do anything for you’
Eldfell then closed the gap between them with a soft kiss. He then rested his head on Io’s chest and fell back asleep.
The kitsune awoke to the sound of footsteps in the brush. His eyes fluttered open, he then sleepily looked around him his arms still wrapped around Eldfell. Suddenly a the figure came into view, the kitsune then smiled and relaxed himself happy that the company was identified.

“I’ve finally found you Io” Arrow said as he walked to him. Io yawned and sat up some holding Eldfell tightly. The kitsune frowned at him and the group of bandits that stood behind him.
“We’re going now” he stated bitterly. Io smirked and cradled Eldfell in his arms as he climbed to his feet. He then fallowed the group through the thick forest.

* * *
The Akachi stood outside of a abandon large stone temple. There was a large wall that wrapped around the temple, the temple was called the Uggi temple it was said to have great treasures from the country of Seresu.
Arrow turned to Io and the other Akachi.

“The Uggi temple may have many treasures inside but there’s only on that we’re after, The seal of the fallen angel” he whispered. Io’s eyes narrowed on Arrow.
The seal of the fallen angel…..a legendry seal that posses great power. It was said to have been lost four years ago, it just vanished into thin air and was never heard of again. This temple was the last recorded resting place of the seal. Io glared at Arrow.
‘What could Kaski possibly want with that seal? If any thing, if it is here then I have to get it first’
Eldfell yawned and stood up next to Io. The kitsune looked to him and smiled. The half demon smirked and jumped up onto the top of the wall. The kitsune smirked and fallowed him.

* * *
The bandits ran around through the temple looking for the seal. They traveled down to the lower levels of the temple, they looked for hours not running into any trouble on their way. The group stopped to rest by the waterway, a dead end. The group grumbled about the seal not being here and some said that they should give up since they could not go further into the temple.

“Arrow lets go back it’s not here” a man complained. Arrow sighed then he looked to Io who was resting on a stone brick. The kitsune turned to him.

“Io can’t you smell around and find it?” Arrow asked. The kitsune sighed and crossed his arms on his chest.

“The scents are to old I can’t tell them apart” Arrow growled and looked around then he turned back to Io. Eldfell walked up to the edge of the waterway, fallowing the water flow. He came to the dead end were the water continued past the wall going through a barred hole in the wall. The half demons eye became dull as he began to hear voices in his head. The voices were muffled and hard to hear. Suddenly he began to see a group of robbed people appear by the waters edge.

An old man wore a dark cloak and carried a lantern in on hand. There was two young boy who stood by his side. The one was wearing a green sleeveless cloak with his hood up covering his brown hair that framed his face. The other was wearing a white and gold cloak , strangely the boys face was never shown to him. The man then hopped down into the water and helped the boys down as well. He then turned to the barred waterway reaching his hand out to touch it. Before he did he spoke to the boys.

“--------, Seluvia what I am about to show you is very important..” his voice became muffled after that.

“Eldfell!” the half demon snapped his head up, the people disappeared. Io was standing next to him with Arrow. “What are you looking at?” he asked. Eldfell looked back to the water way.

“That” he pointed to the barred hole were the water flowed through the wall. “We could probably continue if we crawl through there” Io smirked and hoped down into the flowing water, he then examined the barred hole. Arrow crossed his arms and watched as the kitsune busted through the bars. The bandits then moved into the water and ducked down through the hole. Io turned to Eldfell.

“You coming?” he asked with a smile. The half demon nodded and fallowed Io into the tunnel.

* * *
The group then reached a dead end were the water turned into a small waterfall. Io stood on the edge and looked around the chamber. The room was huge with a high ceiling and made of stone. The kitsune looked down at were the water plunged below into the darkness, he then looked to his left and saw a stone bridge in the middle of the chamber that reached the other side of the room, in the middle of the bridge it came out into a circle. The sound of water surrounded them from the hundreds of tiny waterfalls that poured into the darkness.
Eldfell looked over to the bridge. It was to far for anyone to jump to. Suddenly voices flooded his head again. All of the voices were form different people, the voices talked at the same time getting louder in his mind. He could barely make out what they said.

This place-
---You must listen carefully--
Never forget--
You must----
I will protect--
You can---
It is only you---
I wish it was---
I would never wish for you to---
I’m sorry---
I’ll wait-----you---
There coming---
I’ve seen----
----they will----
They can’t----

The voices hit Eldfell hard, his eyes zoned out his pupils enlarged, his lips parted slightly. The half demon then looked to Io who was looking at him with worried eyes. His lips were moving but he couldn’t hear him the voices drowned him out. Suddenly the voices just stopped snapping Eldfell back to his senses.

“Eldfell!” Io yelled shacking him.

“I’m fine” he finally said. “I was just spacing out” the kitsune then gave him a funny look, then he turned to the outside wall of the waterway.

“Look there’s a small ledge we can sidle across to the bridge” He said matter-of-factly. The group nodded and carefully climbed out onto the ledge and sidled across to the bridge.
The group then stood on the bridge facing the other side of the bridge. Io then walked up to the giant circle, Eldfell fallowed closely behind him. The kitsune stopped at the edge of the circle shape in the bridge, he then looked on the floor and saw engraved markings only in the circle. There was an outer in engraved circle fallowed by another inner in graved circle. In between the two circles edges were strange markings, the center then had a giant engraved feather in the center of the carving. Io crouched down and touched the floor with curiosity.
The bandits walked around the bridge looking for the treasure. Eldfell walked around the circle and stared at it, studying it intently. Suddenly Io’s head snapped up, he quickly looked around the room. Just as he did blood soaked the floor of the bridge. He jumped to his feet and quickly drew his sword, Eldfell looked up at him.
The bandits drew their weapons, a dead bandit lay dead on the floor in a sea of his own blood. Then standing at the other end of the bridge was a herd of demon bests, they snarled and growled at them but made no attempt to attack.

“My, my what do we have here?” a women’s voice called softly. Suddenly she appeared before the herd of demons. She was thin and beautiful with long flowing crimson hair. She had one a tight leather black mid-drift top and tight black pants and boots. Her purple eyes were narrow but beautiful. The women put a hand on her hip and brushed a lock of her crimson cascade from her face.
“A bunch of arrogant humans I see” she sneered. Her eyes then drifted to Io then she smirked.
“Oh, but your not a human now are you?” she asked drawing her sword. The sword was long and thin and made of silver. Io glared at her and readied his sword. Eldfell drew his and stood defensively. Io smirked at the women.

“A babe in the woods huh?” he joked. The women glared at him. “What brings you here?’ he questioned.

“The seal what else, now hand it over!” she yelled. Io’s eyes narrowed at her.

“It’s not here” he snapped at her. The women then frowned and sighed. Then she smirked at him. Suddenly Io turned and parried and attack from behind. The figure then shot away and landed soundlessly next to the women. He had longish blond hair that framed his face. His blue eyes gleamed. He was wearing an all black outfit with a sword in his hand. Eldfell then felt shivers come through his body, his hands became warmed then before. The half demon looked at his hand as it became warmer. Some of his demon powers were slipping out to him for the first time in years. He then clench his fist. He had no idea how long it would last or how much was getting to him, but at least he would have some help.
The blond male frowned and snapped his fingers. Just then the demons charged forward to attack them. The demons ripped apart the bandits in a bloody rampage. The two demons stood and watched the massacre with delight. Io defended himself and killed the demons that attacked him, his sword turned into a bladed whip and slashed through the demons. Eldfell found it easier to fight with his demon powers now that he could react faster then before.
Suddenly the crimson haired women grabbed the bladed whip and held it firmly in his fist. Io’s eyes widened as the blond haired man appeared before the kitsune. Suddenly the bladed whip shattered into thousands of red metal flowers. The flowers swirled around slicing the women’s and demons skin, the kitsune then quickly jumped back dodging the blond males attack.
A cloud of red shimmered around Io. The women held her wounded arm and growled. The blond male smirked and held out his weapon in front of him. Eldfell looked to Io and saw the could of red metal swirling beautifully around him. The half demon then clutched his sword.
‘Io said that you must put your demon energy into your sword to get it to change into a different form, the form depends on the demon energy that used, to control it you must also use your energy’
Eldfell then looked down at his sword, he then poured his demon energy into his weapon.

The blond male charged into the cloud of red, he then slashed at Io. The red flowers moved into a cloud in front of him and parried the attack. The kitsune stood in the middle of the cloud as the petals swirled around him. The blond male growled and continued to attack the petals. The women then poured her demon energy into her sword. It then took the form of lance, fire burned at the end of her blade. She then ran into the cloud of metal and swung her weapon at the cloud of red. Flames jumped form her blade and seeped through the red cloud towards Io. The kitsune then quickly jumped back as the red petals shot at her. She then swung her lance up creating a flaming wall to protect her.
The blond man’s weapon suddenly changed to, it formed into a giant red bladed sword. He then swung it at Io. The kitsune jumped back to dodge it, suddenly the blade extended enough to reach Io. His eyes widened as the sword came down on him. Suddenly two black swords crossed each other catching the red blade in the form of an x. Io looked up at the floating weapons that saved his life. The blades then twisted around pushing the sword away.
The women then dashed towards Io when another black sword was swung at her. She parried the attack with her lance when another sword came down at her, she quickly jumped away from the swords. Suddenly she saw a shadow cast over her as another came down over her. She parried the attack swinging around hitting the sword away from her. She then turned back to Kitsune as a sword pierced through her gut. She looked down and saw a black sword through her stomach. The crimson haired demon then looked up and saw who was commanding the swords. Eldfell stood near Io holding a black katana in his hand and twelve other different shaped swords circled around him.
Io smirked at him and attacked the two demons with the flowers again. Six swords then left Eldfell’s side and fallowed the flowers.

The two demons jumped back to the bridges edge. Suddenly a bloodcurdling screech was heard from the depths of the darkness. A large serpent looking demon rose from the darkness. It’s hide was covered in light blue scales, It’s great big emerald eyes flickered at the four. Eldfell’s weapon returned to it’s original form. His eyes widened. His demons powers had left him.
The demon hissed at the four barring it’s pearly fangs, it then swung it‘s head at the bridge. Red wings came from the blond males back, he then grabbed the women and flew up into the air. Part of the bridge collapsed and fell into the darkness. Io quickly cradled Eldfell in his arms and ran towards to other side of the bridge. The demon swung it’s head and hit Io into the wall, the kitsune shielded Eldfell with his body holding him close as he hit the wall. Io forced himself to stand up again leaning against the wall. He then looked at the wall and saw light streaming through the crakes in the wall. The demon roared and swung it’s head again at the bridge, another section collapsed.
The tiny red flowers shot towards the stone wall behind Io and Eldfell. The cloud of red divided into two groups, the flower hit the wall and exploded as the others shielded the kitsune and half demon.

There was now a hole in the wall leading to an underground tunnel. Io quickly climbed to his feet with Eldfell and ran into the earth tunnel, tree roots hug from the dirt walls and floor. Kitsune could see light at the end of the long tunnel, the kitsune ignored the pain his body from as he pressed on. The blond male looked at to tunnel and shot towards the entrance. The crimson haired women shot a burst of flames at the serpent. Io turned and saw the red angel boy flying towards him, his sword in hand. The kitsune jumped and turned his body to face the man, he held out his hand as roots from the trees quickly tangled between them. The roots kept tangling up forming a thick wall of roots, the blond stopped at the roots and cursed loudly. The kitsune ran out of the tunnel and stopped at the entrance. The tunnel led them into the depths a thick forest.

The crimson haired women sat on the head of the dead demon that laid on the bridge. The blond male walked out of the tunnel and floated to the women, his wings then recoiled into his back. The women frowned.

“They got away” she sighed. The blond man nodded and crossed his arms over his chest.

“It doesn’t matter they were just lowly bandits and a half breed” The man then looked to her wound. “How’s that wound Alexandra?” he asked. The women smirked.

“It’ll take time to heal” she answered simply. “Do you think they had the seal? Kaito?” Kaito looked over at the marking on the floor.

“---Don‘t be ridiculous”
