12 The Sports Festival

The day had come, the festival was here and the students were overcome with pure joy and excitement. the first round was a last man standing and mitsuko won beating kenji but something was off, neither of them saw suichi let alone any ice or scorvh marks (something that suichi commonly leaves behind after fights). confused the tired boys left and went to the changing rooms where they found him he sat there on the bench as blank faced as ever "hey dude whats up you arent the one to pass up a fight or lose so thre must be a reason i didnt see you out there . suivhi looked troubled "I..I..forfeited"

both kenji and yami were taken by surprise by that as he would never do such a thing and he sounded concerned,more than he'd ever shown. yami then piped in "whats wrong,dont spare any detail,i know somethings up and if you dont tell me ill get your uncle and your mother and you know how they get if one of us is upset or concerned" he then waited a few seconds for an answer but it was slightly different than expected, if they were shocked earlier they definately were now, they both looked in complete shock as tears started to roll from his eyes.

the two other boys looked at one another, something was up and it was clearly bad if it could make the near emotionless teen show more emotion than he had in his life. "fine" suichi looked up wiping away his tears "when you think of me you dont think of me as the friendliest of people and so you would assume that i had no friends before you two, but you couldnt be more wrong, you see being the child of two high ranking incredibly popular heroes meant everyone wanted to know me and be my friend and to be fair i loved it but one day there was this boy, he sat just in the corner right in the shade usually because that is where the bulies would beat his ass up and take everything he had ,he was at a point where i could have mistaken him for a stick but that wasnt hard as he already had a small frame" kenji a little concerned said "thats horrible what happened to him?" suichi for a second smiled as he began to speak again."one day i couldnt take watching it and i froze one of them solid from the waist down and gave the other one a ,bad but not serious, burn across his arm and scared them off and then my and his friendship began from there. we became besties and that is when i quickly discovered all my other 'friends' were lying bastards who wanted my fame and status but i knew that he was a true friend. me and him were at the top for everything sports,subjects and our personal faviroute hobby vigilantism,well sort of. we would sneak out at night and secretly take out thugs on the street and we had the time of our lives however we never took on anything abover a simple robbery or attack because even we knew we were just kids.but one day we decided to do our hobby once again but this time we heard a feminine scream come from an alley way and the worst bit is he didnt want to go but i insisted so we decided to swoop in but we never should have. we found a woman but not screaming more like with her hands to our necks, there was a man to and as soon as it happened we knew we were in trouble..." kenji and yami feared the worst and guessed the outcome before it was mentioned. "they beat us up and tortured us, constantly mentioning how they wanted a real hero and how we were useless and would never live to become heroes,then the woman stopped and whispered "nobody is going to save you, it is just you and me and im about to take you out" but in one last desperate attempt my friend hit the woman on me with everything he had and told me to run so i did but obviously the man tryed to stop me, stabbing me and tearing my skin and flesh down my back leaving me with this giant ugly scar. i eventually found help and me and some of the pro heroes ran over to where it happened but i already knew what had happened, there was nothing there no trace of anything the only proof being my knife wound and it was then i realised they killed him and it is my fault it should have been me they killed i was a spoiled brat who had never thought about anybody else and got my only true friend i had killed. ill be the first to admit ive never been the same ive been emotionless and cold hearted because i feel like if i feel what i used to, became what i used to i t could result in me guetting you two killed or make me forget about what i did to him, how i ended the life of a hero better than myself i dont deserve to be here, not after what ive done. his tears went from a few rolling down his face to a stream " the reason i dont want to take part in this festival is because this is the anniversary of his death all those years ago and because this was his dream the one thing he wanted to do in his life was to stand on the podium like his father did and become a hero others could look up to and he couldnt acheive that because of me! i know one day ill have to face them again and ill return the favour to them for him, for me ,and for you and others theyve hurt!" yami was suspicious now "wait what was that last thing you said to me?" suichis eyes widened, he swore under his breath and calmed down "oh it is nothing i meant it in general as theyve hurt so many people in that damn league" yami now started to grow mad "what do you mean league" suichi now grew nervous hes given away to much "Suichi! theres something your hiding from me and you better tell me now or i swear to god ill trap you in a black hole for the rest of eternity!" suichi hesitated but he then spoke "you see the ones who killed him and injured me were not just thugs they were high tier vilains , you see the vilains who atacked us 6 years ago were.. your parents." yami almost fell over at what he heard, he was shocked and furious at the same time he stormed out of the room in tears , his stupid bastard parent had yet again ruined his life but this time traumatising his best friend to the point that hes void of emotion and blames hims self for what theyve done ,yami lost it and shot a beam of light matter making a masive hole in his wall, for all he cared suichi could get revenge on his parents as much as he wanted, well with the scraps from when yami is done with them, they were going to pay but not with the endless riches they stole but instead with their lives.
