Chapter 8: Burial

Yuki would scratch his head. "But Callie said you were waiting here for me…" Said, Yuki. Kaki would spit out his water. "BAHAHAHAHA!!" Kaki would burst out laughing. "Man, you are so lost… HAHAHA!!" Kaki would keep laughing. "W-What do you mean!?" Said Yuki confused. Kaki would slow down his laughter. "Man, you sure look different but your that same old Yuki…" Said Kaki. Suddenly there would be knocking on the door. The door would open. "You two should get some rest, we have a funeral tomorrow…" Said Mr. Clark. The boys would nod. Yuki would walk over to his closet and grab a pair of sweatpants. He'd put the sweatpants on. He'd walk down out of the dorm and walk over to Callie and Nakamura's dorm. Nakamura would answer the door. She would look up at Yuki. "she's downstairs…" Said Nakamura as she slammed the door in his face. Yuki would sigh. He would walk to the stairs and walk down them. He would enter the lounge and see Callie reading. She would look up at Yuki. "Oh uh, hey there…" Said Callie. Yuki would sit down next to her. She would put her bookmark in her book and close it. "What the hell happened Yuki?" She asked. Yuki would look down. "I would feel more comfortable not explaining…" Yuki said. Callie would sigh. "You know we went looking for you…" Callie says. Yuki would look confused. "H-How long was I gone?" Yuki asked. Callie would look stunned. "Y-You were missing for a couple of weeks…" said Callie. Yuki would be shocked. Callie would put her hand on Yuki's. "Don't worry… I never gave up on you once…" Said Callie smiling. She would start taking off the bandages on Yuki's right arm slowly. Once the bandages were off his arm would have raw cuts on it. Callie would close her eyes and breathe. She would hover her hand over his wounds. The cuts would start closing. The wounds would then turn into scars. She would lift her hand and pass out. Yuki would catch her. She would look up at Yuki with a smile. Callie would close her eyes and lay on Yuki. She would mumble something but it was inaudible. Yuki would lay down with her and he would close his eyes. The next day everyone would be at a cemetery. It would be raining. Nakamura would be standing next to Yuki and Kaki. She would be covering her eyes. Yuki would look at Nakamura with sadness. The Peters family would be there. Nakamura would walk over to the casket and lay a cherry blossom in. "I swear…" Yuki thought. "I swear I won't let this happen again… I'll be faster… stronger… smarter…" he thought. There would be a tall man next to Yuki. His face was covered by a mask. He had a black tophat on and a black suit. He would look at Yuki and then look back at the casket. Yuki would look at the man and then look away. He would look back over but the man would be gone. "What the…" He whispered. 30 minutes later everyone would be leaving. Nakamura would walk over to Yuki and Kaki. "L-lets go back to the dorms…" she said. Yuki and Kaki would nod. They would leave the cemetery. "N-Nakamura, I swear…" Yuki stated. Nakamura would stop moving. "I swear, I won't let this happen again…" he said. She would turn around and hug him. "P-promise me… Y-you won't…" she whimpered. He would hug her back. "I promise…" Back at the school, Yuki would be in the training room. He would be wearing a training suit. He would be meditating. He would have a yellowish aura around his body. The holographic eyes would re-appear on his forehead. He would open his eyes and stand up. A blade would appear from his hand. He would vanish and appear behind the hill of rocks. The rocks would then explode evaporating into nothingness. Yuki would brush off his shoulders. "Not enough…" when suddenly the training system would stop and the door would open. Akuno and Mr. Clark would walk in. Yuki would sigh and his holographic eyes would fade. The blade would also fade. Yuki would walk over to Akuno and look him face to face. "What is it, father…" Akuno would clear his throat. "We have lots to talk about…" he said.
