[Chapter 2]

Teleporting back into the studio apartment. I sit down and ponder on my plans about how I'll live in this world.

[Gojo]: "I don't see why I'm thinking so much on it. I'll live free and battle anyone that can peak my interest' I think to myself with an unconsciously created grin. 'Seems my counter-part didn't have my 'Six Eyes'. Or any cursed energy for that matter. So he never needed to use a blind fold. But I'll start to since it would be troublesome having people constantly looking at me for it. Not that it would matter considering he seemed to be a loner as freshman. But he apparently had one friend."

[Gojo]: "His family seems to have disowned him for being a bastard child. Seems like his mother had cheated on his wealthy father and he was the result of a one night stand, which she herself hadn't expected to happen. His father, noticed her unusual condition and was enraged. He had divorced her and kicked her out. So she moved back with her parents.

She wanted to abort him, but her family was against it. They believed she had to take responsibility for the child since it was created from her and her husband's love despite the unfortunate break up. See here's the kicker. She didn't tell her family that she cheated on his father and said that they had a falling out due to multiple disagreements. So he had been born having his mother's hair but different colored eyes then his father and mother, much to the suspicion of his grandparents.

But soon their family had many unfortunate events fall upon them. His grandfather had lost his job out of nowhere being accused of forcefully pushing himself on to an female intern, sexually harassing the young lady. When his grandmother heard about it, she was furious towards his grandfather and they argued over it all night as well as the next day until his grandfather finally convinced his grandmother that he was framed.

How did he convince her? Because she was fired out of nowhere as well. She was accused with having been sleeping with men in higher positions then her to gain benefits throughout her many years of working there. Rumors had spread and reached to her boss who decided to let her go as she had both, betrayed his trust and stained the companies reputation.

Little by little, family members on his mother's side had been losing their jobs. And soon they found out why. His father had called each of his mother's family members and told them he was responsible for their misfortunes, much to their resentment.

But their resentment lessened and focused on his mother when his father told them the truth about his mother, their break up and how he came to be. His mother's family began to hate her for ruining their lives, even her parents. They had kicked her out of their house and left in the streets.

She decided to sell him years later to a couple who had visited Japan on a vacation and couldn't keep their eyes off him as they believed he was very pretty with his snow-white hair and light-blue eyes. At first they looked at his mother with disgust as she would sell her own child for money. But accepted anyway.

They travelled back to America, bringing him along, which was a long flight as they lived in New York. He lived his life with them for the rest of his years until they had him move into a new apartment as to teach him responsibility. They come by occasionally to check on him. Every month on a Saturday of my mom's choosing.. which happened to be today and they had visited before I took over."

I realize I was talking about my counter-part in the third person but I soon remember this is also me and I now accept it...

(1 WEEK LATER) - June 17, 2003

Well today my adoptive parents will come by to check on me again since my mom apparently didn't want to wait another month for a visit. But they had mentioned they will be here in the afternoon this time.

You might be wondering what I have been doing for the past week. Lazing around, that's what. Nothing interesting had happened besides finding out some rich play-boy got kidnapped last month.

I got calls from this girl named Felicia Hardy, whom I assumed is my only friend. She only mentioned how much of a douchebag her boyfriend Eddie Brock was. All I told her after her rant was, 'Why am I supposed to care? We are starting are sophomore years after summer. shouldn't you be focused more since you almost failed freshman year.'

That reply left her speechless, not that I cared how an immature highschool girl thought about it. Especially one who couldn't even see how much his counter-part had cared for her, even more so than her own boyfriend. I hung up and didn't bother responding to her calls or messages afterwards. I guess my maturity and my counter-part's jealousy sort of made me do so. But whatever

Lazing around watching the news for anything interesting happening. Something finally had popped up. Showing videos and images about a big bulky green dude smashing military vehicles. Possibly killing many men. Seems the media had labeled the creature as a monster.

I wanted to meet this thing, but apparently it tends to disappear after brawls with the military. Much to my disappointment but I promised myself that I would meet and try to fight it myself the next time it appears.

(7:30 PM) - Mini timeskip~

My doorbell had wrung. Opening the door, I was greeted by my parents. Both of which had brown hair but my dad had a darker shade while my mom had a lighter shade as well as lime green eyes and my dad, a very dark brown.

My mom was the first to greet me with a big hug which seemed to have become tradition for her every time they visited.

[Mom]: "Ohh~ I missed you! I hope you have been taking care of yourself!" Squeezing for a harder hug.

[Gojo]: "It's only been a week since your last visit mom." I replied with a smile while returning the hug.

[Gojo]: 'I've never gotten this kind of parental attention as a kid, while it's not difficult to copy what my 16 year old counter-part would respond with, it will take quite a bit of time to get used to.'

[Mom]: "Mou~ I know, but how can I not miss my little boy knowing he's quite a far distance away from me!" Looking at her husband,.my dad, she glared and stated, "It's all your fault I can't refill my Gojo-energy when I feel like it with your proposal to separate for him to learn responsibility. Compensation is needed. We will stay the night tonight!" She stated with a pout that quickly changed to a wide smile when she said her last statement.

[Dad]: "Haah~ Yes, of course. But remember that you agreed with the proposal." He sighed before showing a wry smile.

[Mom]: "Only because you made super convincing points and was persistent!" She pouted.

[Gojo]: "We don't need to argue about it. I also agreed to this as I wanted to learn to live on my own. But it's late and you both are probably tired from the long drive so please get some rest. You can both use the bed and I'll sleep on the recliner." I stated thinking that the argument, while was amusing, was a very pointless one as well.

They both agreed since they took quite a bit of time to arrive due to them leaving later than usual and bad traffic on the way. They lived fairly far south in Brooklyn while I live in Midtown Manhattan. So it was quite a drive away. They decided that they should sleep so they changed in the bathroom borrowing some of my clothes.

My mom wore one of my white, XL, short sleeved T-shirts and a skinny pair of joggers that usually reaches only half my leg a littlepast my calves, but for her, fit her perfectly to her ankles due to her short size. My dad wore a white, XXL, long-sleeved shirt with a darker gray pair of joggers.

[Gojo]: 'Now that I'm thinking about it... I have a lot of cozy clothes in different sizes. But I have different pairs of skinny jeans and shorts as well so all's well. Way to go old me!' I cheered in my head.

[Mom]: "Well goodnight sweetie~ In the morning I'll be sure to make your favorite for breakfast!" She claimed, seemingly excited to cook for me.

I look to my dad to find he was knocked out as soon as he hit the bed. A strange feeling filled my chest and I unconsciously let out a smile due to the warm atmosphere.

[Gojo]: "Goodnight, I can't wait." I said with a soft tone. Quite uncharacteristic of me. 'Must be because of the memories that fused with me.' I thought. Though, I didn't mind too much. They seemed like good people.

She went to sleep and I went to my recliner and opened the leg rest and decided to watch the news on low 10 volume but I could still hear it as though it were turnt up to 40. Suddenly something catches my attention.

[News Anchor]: "This just in, the green monster has returned in Harlem and seems to be fighting against another monster! Their fight has cause many surrounding buildings to be destroyed!"

[Gojo]: "Harlem huh~? Time to have a bit of fun" I claim, putting on my black blind fold, which causes my snow-white hair to fly upwards. I put on a black pair of sneakers and walk out the door.

Clap and clasping my hands together, I teleport from the front of my door with a wide smile.
