Chapter 1 - The begging(Part 3) "Hey,Nara-kun..where did you go?I was worried..." Masato said,patted his friend's head. "I had a phone call." Narayama smiled,shaking his cell phone.Of course it was lie,but he hoped that Masato wouldn't notice. "Really?Let me check,then?" Masato smirked,trying to take Hitoshi's phone,but the boy stepped back. "No!I mean..you don't need to.Don't you believe me?" the boy tried to make the most innocent look,which he could,but it wasn't the reason which saved him. Masato's cell phone rang.He frowned,but after all,answered. "Yeah?What's up?" "You can't believe who is fighting,right now with your band..." a man voice chuckled. "Eh? What that supposed to mean?Why is my band fighting again?Didn't I told you,idiots?Do not fight again!!" Masato yelled. "They couldn't resist,because it's Sano Ichiro who is fighting with them." the other male answered. "WHAT??Say it again?!" Masato couldn't believe in the other male's words.Was that true? Was that possible? "Yeah,Sano Ichoro.You heard me right...Now,can you come here,because the fight is really serious.Amane and Hirata are already on their limits?" "I'm coming!Where are you right now?" Masato couldn't think at all right now.The only thing in his head was that Sano is fighting,right now with his band. "In the usual place,oh and...I'm..." before to finish his sentence,someone grabbed his phone. "Yo,Watanabe Masato-san.You'll come here,right? I'll be waiting."after these words,the call ended. "OI! Bastard!!" Masato yelled again.He knew that it was Sano.He looked at his phone,then at the other around him.Everyone in the pub were looking at him,but he didn't really care about it. "I'm leaving." he said,without even saying why or what happened.Just ran through the door. Narayama couldn't believe what just happened.He didn't think too much and ran after Masato,but the other boys didn't. No matter how hard Hitoshi tried to follow Masato in the end he lost him. "DAMN!What should I do now??" he tried to calm himself,thinking for the best decision,but at least he couldn't think anything. It was already midnight.Masato just arrived on the place where he had to,but...no one was there.The only thing which he could see were few knives and drops of blood on the ground. "WHAT THE HELL???" he hit the wall next to hit,but a few seconds ago his cell phone rang again. "Yeah?" Masato answered. "I'm sorry Masato-san the police came and we had to run.Don't be angry,okay? Oh and don't worry about that bastard Sano.He is half dead,so he will remember to not fight with us again." the same man's voice with who Masato talked few hours ago called him again. -At he same time on one of the bus stops- "Shit...I'll kill Masato when I see him tomorrow.." Narayama was mumbling while he was walking to his house. Just when he lift his head,he saw a young boy,sitting on the ground,next to a bus stop. "SANO-KUN!" he screamed,seeing his classmate half dead there.He ran fast to him and what to see - Ichiro was pass out and his head was bleeding. "Oi,Sano!Sano! Can you hear me?" Narayame called the other's name,hoping that he will come conscious. "Mm...?" Sano opened slowly his eyes and saw Hitoshi. "You...came to -cough- kill -cough- me...or...?" he couldn't see properly,but he remembered that the other was friend with Masato. "What are you talking about?Come on,can you stand up?I'll help you.." Narayama smiled,grabbing Sano's hand and helping him to stand up. "Now,put your hand on my shoulder." he continued to talk,starting to walk slowly.

Chapter 2 - The worst night in my life. Thanks god,that Narayama was living nearby the bus stop.The both with Sano were finally in front of one small house. Hitoshi took his keys and opened the door. "We arrived.Do you want to take shower or something?" he asked Sano,while putting him on the sofa in the living room. Sano lifted his head to see the other male,frowning; "Why did you help me?Aren't you one of Masato's dogs?" he asked,without even understanding that Hitoshi don't know anything. "What are you talking about?" he blinked several time,trying to understand what was Sano talking about. "Oh yeah,now you're trying to be innocent? Come on,don't you know that I was fighting with Masato's band?" Sano chuckled,but felt a pain in his chest and squeezed his shirt. "Eh? Wait,wait...What do you mean?Masato's band?Look I don't know what do you mean,but let's do not talk about that now." Narayama,took off Sano's shirt,but when he saw the bruising on his chest,he just couldn't believe it.At least there weren't serious wounds. "Oi,oi why are you strip...." before to continue his sentence,Narayama grabbed his hand and went with him in the bathroom. "Go and take shower...After that we will talk again." he said throwing a towel to the other. Sano understood that no matter what he was saying,Nara wouldn't listen to him.He just went to the bathroom.He let the water to run down,to his hair,neck,chest,while thinking about what happened tonight. "Damn..." he mumbled,lifting his head up.The water ran to his face and then continued again down to his body. After he took a shower Sano went back to the living room.He sniffed food and instantly went to the kitchen,from where was the smell. He couldn't believe in his eyes - Narayama was cooking. "Oi...what are you doing?" Sano asked. "Can't you see? I'm cooking?" Hitoshi chuckled. "No,no..I meant..why do you cook?" Sano asked again. "Because I'm starving maybe?" Hitoshi chuckled again. "Come on,help me with this." he said,pointing one saucepan,on the stove. "And how am I supposed to help you with that thing?" Sano mumbled little annoyed.The truth was that he didn't know anything about cooking and he didn't know what to do with the saucepan. "Oh man,just take it away?" Hitoshi said,preparing other things. When everything was ready the boys had a dinner.The funny thing was that no one was talking to the other,like they were statues.After the dinner,Hitoshi washed the dishes,while Sano was sitting on the sofa,thinking what to do. "Oi Sano,come here for a moment." Hitoshi called him. "What do you want..?" Ichiro mumbled,going to see why Hitoshi is calling him.Narayama was already in the bedroom,searching clothes for Sano. "Take off the towel and put on these clothes." he pointed an shirt and boxers. "They are clear,right?" Sano joked.Narayama hit his head,mumbling: "Of course its cl--..." before to finish,Sano's towel were on the ground. "WHAT THE.."Hitoshi turned back,blushing all over.It wasn't that he didn't see male's naked body before,but just it was awkward. Sano couldn't resist,but started to laugh hysteric.He turned Narayama,grabbing his face and kissing him.After that he continued to laugh.It was just too fun to tease the others. "Man...It was really funny..." Sano said,taking a deep breath. "IDIOT!Why did you kiss me...? Sleep here! I'm going to sleep in the living room.." after these words Narayama leaved the room,slapping down the door. "What a cute boy,he is...no wonder that my brother loved him.." Sano chuckled,dressing himself and laying on the bed.

(Uh..thank you Miro ^^ I hope that you'll enjoy reading my fic...) (Oh and btw...I know that my way of writing is sometimes really strange...but I still hopes that everyone will like it) Chapter 1 : The Beginning (Part 2) "Ahahaha so it's true that the transfer student is always alone?" "Yeah,people from his class told me that he already had a fight Narayama-san." "Eh?What are you talking about? Are you joking?" "Haha,no I'm not joking.It's true...Sano was really cold with Narayama-san." "Ah,I thought that they had a real fight..." "Idiot.Come on,let's go...The next already started." -During the break- "So Nara-kun,how was in France?" Masato asked,while the both guys were eating on the roof. "It was nice,but I still prefer Japan." Narayama chuckled. "If I were you,I wouldn't come back.I would stay in France." Masato said,biting off his sandwich. "There are people who continue to talk about you and..." Hitoshi stopped his friend. "I don't care what are the others talking about me. Everything is in the past now,so let's do not talk about it again,okay?" he smiled. Masato nodded,biting off from Narayama's sandwich. "Heyy!" Hitoshi chuckled,hitting lightly his friend's head. "Ne,Masato-kun? Who is this guy...Sano Ichiro I mean.." he finally became more serious. "Heh,why do you ask?" Masato looked at him,a little shocked. "I'm just curious..No one is talking to him and...I think that no one likes him.Why is that?" while asking,Masato could feel that Hitoshi was worried about that guy. "He is the one who is rude with everyone.From the first day,he didn't even tried to talk with us,like he is living in his own world.But please let's stop that topic." Masato,sighed and Hitoshi could feel that, he surely don't like Sano. "But I wanted to...." before Narayama to continue,Masato placed his finger to the other's lips. "Let's just go back.It's already time for the other classes." he smiled,getting up.Masato opened the door,waiting for Narayama to get up as well and after that they went for their next class. It was already nightfall and the classes for today finished.Narayama was tired,because it was his first day at school from so long. Just when he thought that he will go right in his house,someone called his name. Thanks God,it was just Masato,who was with some of his friends. "Wanna come with us for a drink?" he asked. "Ah,sorry Masato-kun,but I'm too tired.Some other time." Nara thought that it was enough reason,to leave him,but he was wrong. "No.Come on,just one drink? Don't worry,we'll be in my father's pub.So everything will be okay." Masato wouldn't leave the boy no matter what. "I hove no other way,right?" Narayama chuckled and followed his friend. "Isn't it a problem that we are under-aged?" Hitoshi asked,while they were walking to the pub. "Tc,no one will say anything.Don't worry,okay?" Masato sighed.No matter how happy he was that he is with his best friend again,when Nara was like that,asking for every single thing,he could piss Masato off. Finally they entered to the pub.There weren't many people,because it was still early for the adults to come here. "Four cups of sake." Masato ordered,while they were siting on the chairs around the bar. Narayama went out for a bit.He liked to be with his friends,but sometimes he needed to be alone.He saw his reflection on the mirrored door.His brown hair,were already to the shoulders.His dark green eyes which weren't typical for an asian guy,were so bright now. No,he already promised that he will start his live again,forgetting about the past,but sometimes it was so difficult. "I love your eyes,you know?" Narayama remembered his lover's words and shivered. No matter that they already broke up,he was still thinking about him. After few minutes he come back the the pub,smiling like nothing happened,but inside his heart was already in peaces and so cold,but still screaming for someone to warm it.

Title: Beauty Main characters:Narayama Hitoshi,Sano Ichiro. History: Hitoshi is coming back to school after half year,but he is finding that in his class have a new boy - Sano Ichiro. Sano is a hooligan and don't care what the others are thinking about him. But one night after a big fight Sano was find by Hitoshi.Narayama helped to Ichiro and they go to Narayama's house. And after that night,their story begin. Chapter 1 - The beginning (Part 1) "Oi,did you hear?Narayama-san is coming back." "Really?After everything which happened with that guy,who he loved?" "I heard that this guy already graduated and because of it Narayama-san is coming back." "Ahahaha really?Where did you hear that?Its a lie.Narayama-san is coming back,because he is already 3th grade and he want to graduate here." "Eh?Really? Oh,Minata did you hear about the new student in Narama-san's class?" "You mean Sano-kun? Yeah,we talked twice.He is nice,but do not forget that he is hooligan." "Ah,but I thought..." "Shh,he is coming." These were the usual conversations,which you could hear in Meiji High School - only boys school.Everyone knew who is in relationship with who. Who is sleeping with who and other things. But now the big new was that,Narayama Hitoshi was coming back.He was really nice with everyone and always helped to the others, but he leaved school half year ago,because of his relationship with one guy,who was one year older then him. But because Hitoshi's father helped him,he came back at school. And now the day of Hitohi's new life started.The boy came to school,just before the bell to rings. "Hey,hey is it true that Nara-kun is coming back?" one of the boy's classmates asked. "Yeah,its true.I'm so happy that I'll see him again." other guy answered. "Ahh here,he is coming!!!" "Eh?Eh?Really? Where?" Narayama entered to the classroom and every single person inside jumped on him. "Ahaha oi,oi...What's that guys? Did you miss me so much?" the boy chuckled,but in the same time trying to believe that everyone was happy to see him,because after everything which happened,he thought that everyone would just hate him. "But of course Nara-kun." his best friend Masato said,pinching Narayama's cheeks. "Come on sit whatever you wish." another guy said,making way to Hitoshi. The young boy looked around the room and saw one of his favorite seats- next to the window. But just when he was placing his bag on one of the desks,someone threw it away. "Disappear! It's my seat." a manly voice yelled,behind Narayama.He turned his head and saw a tall boy with medium black hair and black eyes. "Who are you?" he tried to be nice,but the other just pushed him away and sat on the chair. "It's Sano Ichiro.He is a transfer student." Masato said,patting Nakayama's shoulder. "Don't worry he is always like that,right Sano-kun?" Masato frowned at the other,like he hated him. Of course Sano didn't answer to the question,just returned with the same scary look,with which Masato looked at him. "Come on,Nara-kun.Sit here." Masato pointed a seat which was behind Sano's and next to his own seat. Narayama looked again at Sano,who was staring at the window now,then sat on his seat. After few minutes the teacher came and the classes started. (Uh..sorry if there have some mistakes,but I'm too sleepy to look for them XDD Oh and I hope that you'll like the fic ^^'')

Holding On. Sadness could not be brought away by the monstrous waves How can you leave after knowing what I’ve became Never would I let you go and allow history to repeat Our love is real; we both understand the love was deep I do not wish to look at you leaving firmly While I grieve that you left me lonely Please turn and spare me your glance again For all I did was holding on to the pain You’re warm yet you’re cold You’ve dampened all the hopes of my soul When would you start believing That my love for you is unwavering Never would I let you go and allow history to repeat Our love is real; we both understand the love was deep I do not wish to look at you leaving firmly While I grieve that you left me lonely Please turn and spare me your glance again For all I did was holding on to the pain Looking at you as all my tears dries up What can I do to win back your heart I still love you and I always do I’m still dedicated always to you Please do not leave and stay with me I never ever let you go Never let you go Never would I let you go and allow history to repeat Our love is real; we both understand the love was deep I do not wish to look at you leaving firmly While I grieve that you left me lonely Please turn and spare me your glance again For all I did was holding on to the pain (I'm sorry for what I’ve done) I’m still holding on I’m not giving up (Please do not go and stay with me) How can I get you back Can i ever get your heart back =========================== For those who know Chinese, you can check out the original version below with additional parts.

One destiny love once in life time... Japanese said something like this... So I use that thought in my poem... Well, this is kind of my story... Love is one and live life for that love is most beautiful love reaction for the one who have to leave the life behind... Live a life and love as this is one and only for you... Don't waste and regret later in you life... Cherish you every day as this might be you last day or last love for you. Picture I use was from the Porno Superstar...

LESSON SIX "Always bite the apple because you don't know what you're going to find under the skin" After a long night, rainy night, gray early morning comes. I comb my hair while looking through the window, sun rays are welcoming the new day. I got into my car, play my favourite song and start to drive. Empty streets greet me and I feel the emptiness in my heart. As I stop at a red traffic light, far at the skyline I see for the first time a rainbow. A beautiful multicolor arch, where everything has its place, where everything in this world is represented. I stop my car, get out and look at it among the gray clouds. "Maybe, one day" I think "behind those gray clouds, on the other side of the rainbow covered by clouds, there'll still be hope for me" Hope is such a great word, so heavy that sometime hurts but that no one must forget that there is always a way..... So I got into my car again, hoping that maybe tomorrow it will be a better day...

I'm not sure where to post this thread so feel free to move it if doesn't fit in here. Do you ship guys with each other in other shows and movies? I watch other shows besides Asian Dramas, and in some of them I ship boyxboy pairings. Arthur/Merlin from the BBC show Merlin. I wish this pairing was canon so badly. Merlin and Arthur have such a strong bromance. There's so much unsaid between them, and it's clear they love each other. And the eye sex...so much chemistry! Tenth Doctor/The Master from Doctor Who Actually, my main OTP in Doctor Who is Tenth Doctor/Rose, but I can't ignore the amazing chemistry between The Doctor and The Master. In fact the only reason The Master never killed The Doctor is because he loves him. Blaine/Kurt from Glee This is actually a canon couple, and it's very cute. Sherlock/John from Sherlock Sherlock is unconfirmed but obviously gay, and you can't fault this pairing even if the show only has three episodes. XD Jack/Ianto from Torchwood Canon Pairing. It's so special and tragic. [video=youtube;fF2a-Q5z1qQ] Dong Soo/Yeo Woon from Warrioir Baek Dong Soo. Yes I know it's actually an Asian Drama, but the main males have this great bromance it's almost BL. So I ship them. They kind of remind me of Naruto and Sasuke (and I ship narusasu XD)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaX2IZXO16o Dean/Castiel from Supernatural It's been said several times in the show that Dean and Castiel share a profound bond. I think Castiel secretly loved Dean. Besides, what is more epic than love between a human and an angel? ;) So that's my ships. What are yours?

RG Veda (聖伝) (for jenova) Three hundred years ago, the god of thunder, Taishakuten, rebelled against the Heavenly Emperor, killing both him and the guardian god Ashura-ō. With the help of Ashura-ō's wife Shashi, he usurped the throne and began his cruel reign as the new Emperor. However, a prophecy was made by the stargazer Kuyou, first to Ashura-ō and then to Yasha-ō: "Six stars will fall to this plane. The dark stars that will defy the Heavens. And you shall undertake a journey. One that begins when you find the child of a vanished race. I cannot discern the child's alignment. I only know that it is he alone who can turn the wheels of Tenkai's destiny. For it is by Heavenly Mandate that through this child, the Six Stars shall begin to gather. And then someone shall appear from the shadows. Even my powers cannot clearly make out his figure, but he knows the future and can manipulate both evil and heavenly stars. A roaring flame shall raze the wicked. Six stars will overpower all others. And inevitably, they will be the schism that splits the Heavens." Following this prophecy, the Guardian Warrior of the northland, Yasha-ō, awakens the genderless child of Ashura-ō, Ashura, who has slept the last three hundred years under a magical seal. Believing the prophecy to mean that the "Six Stars" together can overthrow Taishakuten, he and Ashura set out to find the "Six Stars". Over time, five of the Six Stars gather as Yasha-ō and Ashura, the first two stars, are joined by Sōma, Ryu-ō and Karura-ō, the other three. A mysterious character who appears and disappears quite regularly, Kujaku, gives them helpful advice, but his nature and intentions are unclear. The gentle and childlike Ashura (who is usually referred to as "he" out of convenience, though some translations use a female pronoun) soon reveals a deadly alter-ego, a youth who delights in death and destruction, but this side remains for the longest time more or less suppressed, also by Ashura's affection for Yasha-ō. Seeking to bring Taishakuten's reign to an end, the Six Stars finally enter Zenmi-jō, Taishakuten's palace. They are met there by the three remaining "Four Generals" (Shitennō) (one was killed by Yasha-ō earlier), warriors who swore to protect Taishakuten. The Six Stars are shocked to discover that the sixth Star, Kendappa-ō, their friend and ally, is among them as Jikokuten, the previously unknown general. By the meeting of all the Six Stars, Ashura's dark nature is brought to the surface. He kills his mother, the traitorous Shashi, takes the seal on her forehead and merges it with his sword Shura-tō, to awaken the true Ashura; the god of flame, blood and war, whose aim is to destroy heaven, earth, and hell. The true Ashura proceeds to complete his awakening by killing the remaining Six Stars (some of them were killed earlier). He kills the stars one by one, absorbing their power, until only Yasha-ō is left. Surprisingly, Taishakuten stands against him. It turns out that his cruel reign was really a plot by him and the deceased Ashura-ō to prevent the gathering of the Six Stars and the true Ashura's awakening. However, it is not Taishakuten who stops Ashura, but Ashura himself. As he is about to give Yasha-ō the finishing blow, Ashura in the last moment stabs himself instead. He is then enveloped in a cocoon and enters into a deep sleep. Ashura is awakened hundreds of years later when Kujaku sacrifices his own life, on Yasha-ō's promise that he will not let Ashura become the God of Destruction again. Genre - Fantasy, drama, adventure

Part Nine is ready, enjoy ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Near death experiences, don’t come often in regular people’s life. However, a few unlucky human experience those kind of situations on a regular basis... Soldiers, Firemen, Policemen, among others...there’s a list so vast of heroic characters that could be-proud human kind... But my point here it’s not to talk about those people... Even without a profession that manages risks, a person might be having such a fucking hard time in life that near death experiences mean shit compared to what they go thru... Poor Shouji was one of latest... We went thru all kinds of bad situations in life and still, sometimes, he was happy he could wake up in the morning and witness another day... Till today, the 19 year old kid, soundly sleeping in his futon, having forgotten all the bad in this world, is going to have the worst wake-up call he can remember... Today was definitely not one of the days he'll say he's happy to be alive... Shouji started to hear the sounds of loud shouting, mixed with some stuff breaking... He couldn’t figure out if he was still dreaming or reality was banging loudly at his conscience... After a few moments of pure blurriness, he started wondering if what happened last time really did happen or was he still having such fucking weird dreams, he felt like throwing himself of a bridge... At that instant a monster came barging in... “AREN’T STILL UP YOU PIECE OF SHIT??” What the fuck was going on...? Why was he already screaming this early in the morning, and screaming at him at that... What did Shouji do to hear the demon growl as soon as he wakes up... Damn bastard, already ruining his day... Then...at that precise moment the most fucking embarrassing memory came swimming on Shouji’s head... He could still feel it. Feel all of what Kai made to him... His hands, his tongue, his whole body leaned against Shouji’s skinny body, making him feel like he lost his fucking mind that night... But with the erotic memories, came the nightmare... The image of the kid coming on Kai’s face was starting to become vivid with each second passed... And after that... Pure darkness! Nothing whatsoever... That was just fucking weird! What the fuck happened after that? Did Kai beat him up so bad he passed out...? That was the only possibility Shouji could come up with. Well, whatever it was, he was going to find out... The Green Dragon, was standing in front of him looking like the devil itself the moment before he’s going to commit a murder... “Are y’a fucking gonna wake up today...y’a bastard...?” “What the fuck! I’m waking, i’m waking...What th’a hell’s wrong with’ya..?” If it was bad before, now Shouji should just consider the possibility of running away... Running away the fastest and the farest he could... Because those eyes meant “Death”! “What you did.....?!” The dragging on Kai’s voice was becoming so damn fucking scary, the kid was now thinking he really might have done something to piss off the yakuza out of fucking normal ratings ... “You sleazy, sneaky, skinny son’of a bitch... Do y’a have any fucking recollection of what y’a did to me last night!” “Wha... Did t’a you?! Ya mean what ya did to me!!! Ya did those weird things to me, i can’t even remember half of the shit you made me do...” “YA FUCKING PASSED OUT ON ME, Y’A FREAKING SON OF A BITCH!!” And light was made... Holy shit, so that was it! After Kai made Shouji come, the feeling was so damn out of this world the kid couldn’t managed it and passed out completely leaving Kai sucking on his big toe after that... The kid was done for... “I...passed out?!” “Yeah....ya did... Did that feel so damn good you went t’a dreamland all by y’oself you bastard... I had to whack a few, all by myself, cause fucking pussy here FUCKING PASSED OUT!!” “What the hell, i told’ya it was my first time doing shit like that, didn’t i...It’s y’o fucking fault!” “What did y’a say....? I had to clean up yo’r cum out of my face, i serviced you real nice, and now Y’O FUCKING COMPLAINING?! I’M TH’A ONE WHO SHOULD FUCKING COMPLAIN!!! I DON’T FUCKING JERK OFF, Y’A DAMN BASTARD!!” With that Kai left Shouji’s room, breaking a few more things along the way. Shouji sighed a bit of relief since he wasn’t dead yet, but what could be expecting him after that? Was he being turned into a fucking sex slave from now on, or dead was really the path he would follow... The strong stomps were coming back again and he braced himself for the worst... “AND GET Y’O ASS OUT OF BED RIGHT THIS SECOND OR YOU’RE DEAD MEAT!!” Shouji did what he was order and got up, unfortunately he forgot he was butt naked and the second he stood up Kai’s death glare gave place to an endearing blush, never to be fucking seen in a freaking yakuza’s face... “GET TH’A FUCK DRESSED, OR I’LL KILL YOU THIS FUCKING INSTANT...” Another slam... The noise made by the sliding door was still ringing in Shouji’s ears... He looked around the room to find some piece of clothing he could wear, but there was none. Not his own clothes nor something Kai could have left him... He pulled one of the blanket’s lying of the futon and went to find the yakuza. If he wanted Shouji to get dressed he better find him clothes, or give him back his... Walking around that fucking giant house, he realized that even after Kai’s shouting and breaking shit, everything was still peaceful and quiet, he realized for the first time, it really was one hell of a big freaking house. Not to mention, the gardens and greenery looked like a fucking picture from those gardening magazines Shouji used to see in the magazine stalls... Could a place like this really exist just outside Tokyo?! This looked like a lost garden of Eden, right beside the fucking hell... The shadow of someone looking at Shouji startled him... He looked straight to the place where he saw the shadow but all that was there was plants and trees... Was he dreaming, or was it only the clouds high up in the sky playing light games? He continue to walk around a stone path leading the garden to another house. Not as big and monumental as the main house, but still pompous enough to be considered damn freaking scary. Shouji felt the urge to see the inside of it, but the image of the man in front of the building stopped him on his feet. “Who are you?!” ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- That's it for part 9 hope you guys liked it... Big kiss :**

I love it! Thank you to whoever or whomever are responsible for the wonderful Halloween themed banner I am looking at right now. It makes coming to the forum even an even better experience for me. :hamtaro-005 (23): By the way, this is my first post!!! See the banner was so moving I had to get out of lurker mode and actually post!

Chapter 01 Spring Time. Early in the morning, the warm sun shone brightly from the sky. Masamune Hikari thought of having a stroll outside his shop. Although his right eye was covered with an eye patch, it made Masamune look tougher instead of weak. Never did he imagine that he would see a ‘corpse’ lying around the moment he steps out. Making a quick glance at the ‘corpse’, Masamune then looked straight ahead, and continued his stroll – towards the ‘corpse’. When his steps arrived at the 'corpse' side, not only did he not slow down his pace, he stepped over the ‘corpse’ – with increased strength - to get to the other side. "Awwwww ----!" The ‘corpse’ groans as he stood up slowly. Of course, there were 2 footprints behind his back. "You ……" "Don’t sleep outside of other’s shop early in the morning!" As he finished the sentence, he head straight forward right away. "Uh..." Although the ‘corpse’ was weak, he watched Masamune left with his eyes still wide open. And in the end… He fainted once again. === === === === === === Masamune was back in the shop around evening time, he noticed a stranger in the house, holding a bowl piled up with food as high as a mountain. "Who let him in?!" Masamune snapped. At the same time, Midori and Naoki happened to stepped in and overheard the voice of Masamune. "It was..." Midori was going to explain, but the stranger acted faster. "I should leave. Thank you Miss for your hospitality, I’ll definitely remember your kindness and put them in mind." The stranger got up and left after he places the empty bowl down. After the man left, Masamune entered the house and sat down by the table. Naoki followed behind him and sat down obediently behind him. "Young master, you should really do something to your temper… How are you going to take over the business like this? You better..." Gradually, Midori’s voice disappears. That was because she saw the winks which her younger brother, Naoki, was trying to sent her and the gradually darkening face of Masamune. "... Do not let strangers come in and out freely; we are not having a charity house here. And... Call me master." === === === === === === After finishing his business meeting, Masamune was on the way home with Naoki. But as they come to a corner, Masamune took a turn and walk towards the other direction. Again??? Naoki thought. Although he was puzzled, he’s didn’t the courage to question, all he could do was follow obediently. Finally, they reach a Sake House. It was a small scale Sake House that was transformed from a small house. The furniture in it were simple and plain. Just standing by the door, they could see that there are a handful of customers, a blind lady singer, and an elderly playing the Shamisen* in it. As always, Masamune chose the corner seat and order some sake. "Bang -" Slight commotions was aroused at the other corner of the house. Several burly physique men got up to go, as they kicked and topple the chairs and yelled. "Well... Looks like we can’t visit this drinking house anymore. Even the rich are here, what about us? Maybe to the streets?" "Wahahahahaha --!" The man’s companion echoed around and laughed. ! ! ! These people are really…! "Hey! Do you know who are you talking to now? What’s with the rich and poor talk? Don’t rich people eat? Can’t rich people drink? Can’t the rich chat? Don’t the rich sleeps? Aren’t the rich human beings as well!! "Naoki got more and more excited, and his voice got louder and louder, he even did not know what he was saying. Naoki’s momentum shocks the men a little and the other customers are also beginning take notice to their dispute. "You... Don’t think you’re great just because you spoke loudly!" The man also shouted response. He could not bear losing to a kid! "You..." Naoki wanted to continue, but Masamune raised his hand holding the Kiseru* to stop him. "To talk loud doesn’t make us great… What makes me great is, all that’s needed for you to disappear from this town, is a ‘soft’ word from me." As though he was totally worthless, he felt totally ashamed by Masamune’s words. All that’s left for the man to do was to leave an angry warning before he left. "You better watch out!" "You haven’t changed. Have you?" It was the blind singer of the house. She was holding on to a bottle of Sake. She sat down beside Masamune and smile gently, at the same time, she held out an empty glass, signaling him to fill her glass. Masamune did not reply. All he did was filling her cup silently. Who is this lady?? Why is young master listening to her?? Why would young master patronize this sake house so often?? Could it be due to… her?! === === === === === === The next day, Masamune get Naoki to run errands for him while he decided to go out for a stroll. As he walked, he passed by a stall by the road side selling snacks, Masamune naturally sat down at the chairs by the stall. A man who looks like the boss came up to ask for his order. "What’s your recommendation?" "How about trying our signature dish, Daifuku*?" Seeing that Masamune did not reject the idea, the man went behind the stall, and came out with a plate. Masamune did not start eating immediately. He picks up a stick and held one of the Daifuku up, observing it before taking a bite. The boss was watching Masamune as well. Intuitionally, he felt that Masamune isn’t someone simple, hence he didn’t move away, he just stood by Masamune, waiting to accept his praise. Surprisingly, one bite is all that Masamune does. Before he leaves, he puts the Daifuku back to the plate and place the money beside the plate. The boss was puzzled. His stall’s Daifuku is a very well known dish where many come from far just to get a taste of it. But this person… "Excuse me sir... " To clear his doubt, the boss ran after Masamune. "Can I ask, was the taste not suitable for you?" "…" Masamune pause and thought for a while. "Tasteless." === === === === === === Bamboo Garden. Unknowingly, as Masamune stroll, he came to a bamboo garden. Suddenly, he felt the change in the surrounding. He’s not alone. Sure enough, moments later, a group of people appeared and stand in front of him. "Boy, I told you to watch out." It turned out to be those thugs from yesterday. Masamune did not want to have much contact with these people. He looked at them for a second and walked around them to continue his stroll. "Damn." Noticing that Masamune is not taking them seriously, their leader - that guy who spoke yesterday – became very furious. "Get him!" Masamune glance back after hearing them. When he saw them armed with weapons, he knew that he had underestimated them. Unexpectedly, another figure appeared and stood in between of him and the thugs. Even with Masamune’s height of 5 feet 6, he still seems short as compared to the guy infront of him. Facing those thugs calmly, the man slowly retrieves his Wakizashi* from his waist. Not only that, one by one, he defeated those who were preparing to attack Masamune. When those thugs ran away, Shiroyama Izumo kept his Wakizashi immediately. As he wipes the sweat from his forehead, he turned to look at the person who came close to being attacked. Never did he expect to be shocked in that way. He was somewhere nearby when he heard some commotion, so he came to take a look. Of all people, this guy was someone he has never predicted to save… The guy who left the footprints on his back the other day! Masamune looked at those who fled; he shook his head, and began to move forward again. !!! This… This guy!!! He didn’t even bother to say thank you before he leaves?! "You… You ungrateful guy! Next time when you are in trouble, let’s see if I’ll help you again! " Humph! Like a kid throwing tantrum, Shiroyama also turned and went in the other direction. To be Continued... Writer's Note!
