Home to sister

Goru didn't look at them as he and his sister went out. Naka jumped from roof to roof, Goru clinging to her back like a bag. Finally, they reached a small graveyard. Goru got off Naka and began to put a flower on each tombstone. Surrounding the graves was a fence. At the entrance was a sign in bright orange and purple, 'The Kuroda Memorial'.

Katsumi looked up at Akemi. "I really like them!" She smiled.
"I'm not sure you'll be seeing a lot of them, Katsumi." Akemi said apologetically. "Now why don't you go take your bath?"
"Okay..." She slowly walked off to take her bath and Akemi started to make her some dinner.

There was a knock on the door. Naka and Goru were still at the graveyard, though.

(Knock on their home door? Or Akemi's? Sorry...I'm confused...)

(Oh, sorry ^-^" )

The was a knock on Akemi and Katsumi's front door. The newcomer actually wanted to stalk the Kurodas right then, but felt it was duty to warn Akemi and Katsumi.

Akemi went over and answered the door, though he wanted to start dinner.
He opened the door.

Aiden was leaning against the wall near the door, a pack of cigarettes in his hand. When Akemi answered the knock, he shoved the pack in his pocket. "Yo." Aiden pat Akemi's shoulder and stood in front of him, relaxed. "May I come in? I promise not to touch either of you." He gestured toward the house.

"No, you can't come in. I don't even know who you are." Akemi stated defensively.

"I'm Naka's master. Fine, I'll state my point." Aiden sighed and fiddled with the cigarettes in his pocket. "Don't let Katsumi ask Naka about her past."

"And why are you telling me this? How do you even know my sister's name?" Akemi continued to be defensive.

"Whatever Naka knows, I do too. And this is for Katsumi's own good. If she finds out...who knows? A little girl that age should not have the knowledge...for one thing, she shouldn't know about mass killings...and for another, she shouldn't know about damnation and hell...yet."

"And know that you've told me could you kindly leave us alone?" He asked defensively.

Aiden arched an eyebrow and nodded. "As you wish." He turned around and was engulfed in a swirl of black smoke.

Naka and Goru were done at the cemetery, but there seemed to be one flower left. "Eh? There's still a hibiscus?" Naka held up the flower, perplexed. She had taken twenty-one, and twenty-one only. She passed it to Goru, who examined it then smiled timidly at his sister. "Onee-chan...Can I...go give this to Katsumi-chan?"

"Okay, but you go on ahead first, I'll clean up here." Goru nodded and used Shunshin to go to Akemi and Katsumi's. When he got there, he saw Akemi and 'him' talking. Goru stayed in the shadows, unwillingly listening to the words that drifted his way. "Mass killings...Eternal damnation..." Aiden then left, and the little boy came out from the bushes. His face was expressionless...again. "May I see Katsumi?"

Akemi looked at the boy, wondering how long he had been there. "She's taking a--" He was cut off by Katsumi as she ran to the door. "Hi!!!" She smiled widely at Goru.

Goru gave her a sincere smile. "Hullo." He held out his arm, extending the little white hibiscus to her.

"It's so pretty!!!" Katsumi takes the flower. "Thank you!!" She smiles and smells the flower. Akemi watches them in silence. Katsumi seemed to really like this boy...Akemi could tell he'd be seeing a lot more of him and he wasn't sure if he was alright with that. Sure he seemed like a nice kid...but what if something happened?

(SORRY! Computer crashed!)

"Glad you like it," Goru said, grinning. He blushed lightly at his next words. "Can I sleep over? Onee-chan says it's okay..."

(S'okay. I should inform you though, Naka's already dead, but I suppose this is in her past.)

(Oh wow o.o)

Katsumi looked up at Akemi. "Pleeeaaassseee??" She smiled sweetly. Akemi frowned, not thinking this was a very good idea at all. "Please??" Katsumi made her unresistible puppy dog eyes. Akemi sighed hard.
And without another word Katsumi grabbed Goru's hand and dragged him inside. "Come on!" She giggled.
Akemi stood there, watching them. Was it really okay that he stayed here? Akemi thought.

"Um...okay." Goru smiled and allowed himself to be dragged around by the young girl. "But...Where do I sleep?" he asked questioningly. The couch, maybe?

((It's not that serious ^.^ she's been reincarnated, anyway.))

(Oh :p Ahah okay then~)

"With me!" Katsumi said cheerfully. After hearing this Akemi spoke up. "No, Katsumi, he cannot sleep with you." He said in his normal serious tone. Katsumi just continued on her way, ignoring her brother and dragging Goru to her room. When they got there she smiled widely. "This is my room!"

Goru blushed and smiled to her. "You...have a very nice room," he said. He was a bit worried of what Akemi might do to him, but he didn't want to hurt Kasumi's feelings and stayed.

"Thank you!" She smiled more, glad to be able to talk to someone other than her brother and happy to have a friend.
Akemi walked to her bedroom and stood in the doorway. "You will not be sleeping in the same bed. I'll make a bed on the floor. Okay?"
Katsumi pouted but didn't want to anger her brother. "Okay..."

"Of course." Goru partly knew what it felt like to have a sister to protect. And not from just pervs, but protect her from herself. He smiled and sat on the floor like an obedient pet as he examined the room.

"You know where to find me if there are any problems. I'll be in soon to make the bed." And with only hesitating slightly Akemi left the room and went to his own.
"What do you like to do???" Katsumi asked as she sat next to Goru.

"Ah... I don't know," Goru said, embarrassed. "I've never been to a sleepover before. Or have any friends..." He blushed and played with his fingers how his sister would.
