1 Chapter 1: Zorin in bad condition

It is now 7 years later. They boys are now 25 years old and have kids of their own. Zorin Married Sapph and had a boy and girl twin who are 5 years old. The girl Zuri, had white hair like her Dad, and light blue eyes, like Daddy's blue eye and white like her Dad. The boy Slade, had hair like Mommy's brown. He had different colored eyes like Daddy and tan like Mommy. Jason married Mystery and had 2 girls. Melody had golden eyes like Mommy and hair like daddy. Jayde had green eyes like Daddy and hair like Mommy. Who are 6 years old.

Oh. What a long day. Said Zorin, and Crashed on the couch. Hey honey. How was work? Oh it was ok. How was work at the hospital? Oh it was good as well. Mom and Dad wanted to say hi. For you to come by once in awhile and say hi. Yeah I know. Just been a busy bee I guess. When are the kids supposed to be home? They are at Jason's right now. OK. After I take a rest, I will go back down to Jason's and get the kids. Ok honey. I will be here. Zorin closed his eyes for an hour. OK. I better get up and head to Jason's now. I'm taking the car to pick up the kids. Ok honey.

Hey Bro. Oh hey Zorin. Your kids were great. You here to pick them up? Yeah I am. I'm gonna bring them to the dojo with me a little later. We are going to do some sparring. Your kids want to come too? Yeah! The kids were excited to see their Dad. You guys could use a break.

Ok kids. Get buckled. Let's go. 10 miles later they were there. OK here we are kids. Let's get out. Zorin your back. Said Zuki. (Who is now 20) Yeah I am. I picked my kids up from my brothers. We are going to spar a bit since there is no classes today. What do you say? Ok here are the rules. First one to say stop or raises their hand looses. Why don't Melody and Slade fight, and Zuri pair with Jayde. Ok Daddy. Said Slade. Ok ready Zuki. Ready. Lets go.

They fought for awhile. Zorin was pinned down trying to push Zuki off of him, but barely did. Zuki said, What happened? You used to be stronger than this. I don't' know. Something's going on. OK let's finish this. OK let's. The kids were doing great. Zuri Pinned Jayde down, but pushed her off too. It went on for a little while longer and this time Zorin pinned Zuki down and gave in. Hey. Good job Zorin. Zorin helped Zuki up. Hey. What's wrong Zorin? Oh nothing. Just some thoughts in my head right now. Let's watch the kids. When Slade and Melody fought, the last part was so quick they didn't see what Melody did to pin Slade down. As for Zuri, she ended up pinning Jayde down again until she said stop. OK kids. Very good. All of you. Said Zorin. Go dry your faces off. Zuri helped Jayde up and Melody helped Slade. Why don't you kids go rest now or play. Said Zuki. The kids went off and did that.

Hours later Zorin took the kids home. Hey kids. Did you have fun? Yeah Daddy. Said Melody. I beat Slade. Zuri beat me. Said Jayde. Jason chuckled. Is that so. Well I am sure you did your best. Why don't you come in Zorin? NO. We gotta head home to Sapph. Ok well, I will see you guys later then. Yeah sorry. Tell Mystery I say hi. I will.

Ok. Let's head to see Mommy. We're home kids. Go on in ok? Daddy will be right in. OK Daddy. Said Zuri. Zorin sat in the car for a min, took a deep breath. He got out of the car and headed inside. Hey honey. I'm home. Hey Zorin how was it? It was fine. I beat Zuki this time. Wow! That's good! Slade said, Melody beat me. Zuri said, I beat Jayde. Wow! Good job Zuri. Slade I am sure you did your best. Yeah. If Daddy trained me more, I could beat Melody. Sorry Slade. Maybe some time when Daddy isn't busy. I know Daddy.

The next day after school, the older kids ended up at the dojo. Chloe is now 10. She noticed that Zuki was meditating. OK. Who can tell me why we meditate? Chloe raised her hand and said, We meditate to clear our thoughts, and also feel lighter so we can do more things. She was looking at Zorin while saying that. Yes that's right Chloe. Thank you. OK kids lets cross our legs and close our eyes. Chloe did that, but was thinking more of Zorin. Zuki continued Breathe in the good thoughts and out the bad. Chloe tried, but just couldn't focus. Ok kids. Now lets find our partners and start sparring. Zorin will be observing. He will train those who need it. We will call the names of the people we help and do private training. Yes sir. They all said. OK begin. Zorin waited awhile to observe. The first one he noticed was Chloe having more trouble than usual. He went over and observed the others. Once he was done, he stood back up front and waited for the kids to finish.

Everyone finished. Chloe lost. Which shocked her partner. Hey. What's up? Said her partner. Sorry. I just have some thoughts. I couldn't focus on meditation today. Hey, its fine. Maybe next time. Yeah thanks. OK kids. When I call your names. Said Zorin. Please step up here! Chloe, Zara, Samuel and Rayden. OK! Everyone else, good job! OK kids, when your parents get here, I will talk to them about when a good time for you all to meet together will be. Once they all came, they had a good time. Zorin said, James? You, me, and Chloe, need to talk. Sure. Come this way please. They sat on a bench away from people.

I have noticed that Chloe wasn't focusing on meditation. She wasn't fighting at her best. Chloe. Why don't you tell us what is on your mind. Said Zorin. Why don't you Zorin? Said Chloe. You don't meditate with us anymore. We aren't talking about me, we are talking about you. You are the reason I am not concentrating Zorin. I'm worried about you. You are acting weirder than usual. I have been really close to you apparently since I was 2. I was more attached to you, then my parents. Kind of still am. Don't know why? No one does. I can always sense something wrong with you. She was freaking out now. Zorin! What is wrong with you! Please tell me! She said in tears. If you don't, I don't know what I will do. First of all, calm down and take a deep breath. Said Zorin. Like I can when I am worried about you. Just please. I will tell you if you breathe. Ok fine. She took a deep breath and calmed down a little. OK now. If you want to know why I don't meditate, its because I have been afraid lately. These thoughts I have right now, I don't know. I will be fine with a little rest. Go home and relax ok? Do better tomorrow. Sorry Dad. I know you haven't seen me like this before. No one has. I have been like this once before. We better get going. Said James. Thank you Zorin. Yeah. Your welcome uncle. Chloe really. I will be fine. Maybe sometime soon we can even hang out to prove it. Just you and me. If its ok with your Dad? Yeah its fine with me. OK cool. I will call you Chloe a little later. Ok Zorin. Thanks. Yeah sure.

Zorin told Zuki to tell the Master he was going for a jog. Hang on Zorin. Stay here for a second. OH ok. Zuki went to get Master. They went back to Zorin, and he looked confused. What's going on here? Said Zorin. I told Master what was going on with you. Zorin, I will let you go on and do your job on one condition. You need to be observed for awhile. Just to make sure you don't do anything crazy and hurt anyone including yourself. Yeah Yeah. Said Zorin. Can I go for my jog now? Yes you may. Said Master. Thank you.

Zorin went to the track and did his jog. Zuki sat on the bleachers and watched Zorin run a few laps to try to clear his head. Zuki noticed he was jogging a few more laps than he used to. Zorin! Hey man! Its time to stop! Come sit down please! Said Zuki. Zorin slowed down, barely got to the bleachers and passed out. Dammit Zorin! Zuki picked Zorin up and put him on his shoulder. He laid Zorin down on his bed. Waited for Zorin to wake up. 1 hour later, Zorin started to wake up.

Cough cough. Ow that hurt. Hey Zorin! How you feeling? Like I got hit by a bus. What happened? You went for a jog around the track, and you were doing more laps than usual. You were slowing down and collapsed right by the bleachers. So I brought you here. Zorin sat up with his feet on the ground. Zuki? I think I might need to do something about this. I think its time to put me in the Magic chamber. Zorin! What are you talking about? Just put me in the Magic chamber for at least a week. Just to see if things calm down in my mind. Let's talk this over with Sapph, and let her know what's going on. OK Zuki. Let's go. Master, me and Zorin are heading over to see Sapph. OK see you later.

Hey Sapph. Said Zuki. Oh hey Zuki. Zorin you OK? Zorin didn't say a word. Is Zorin ok? Kids go play in your room ok? Grownups need to talk. OK Mommy. Said Zuri. Slade did the same.

What's going on here? Zorin is getting worse. His thoughts are getting crazier. Said Zuki. Zorin finally spoke up and said, I will tell her. You know when I say I'm going to do something, and nothing will change my mind? Yes I do. For a week, I will be staying in the Magic Cell. I know you don't want me too. It will keep me from loosing control of my powers and hurting myself. What about the kids? Are you going to say goodbye to them? Yeah I will before I go. I just thought you should know from me instead of someone else. Thank you Zorin. For telling me. Yeah sure. I love you Sapph. I love the kids too. Ok let me call the kids. Ok kids come here a minute please. Ok Mommy. Said Zuri. Slade came too.

Daddy has to go away for awhile, he wants to say goodbye to you. Daddy be back? Said Zuri. Yes. Said Zorin. Daddy will be back. Hopefully Daddy will be better. Daddy you sick? Said Slade. Yes. Daddy has to go away because he is sick. Ok kids. Come here. He gave the kids a group hug and gave each one a kiss. Eww. Daddy I'm a boy. I don't need a kiss. Sorry I forgot. Your a big boy huh? It's fine I guess. Ok Zorin. She said looking worried. Oh Sapph. He gave Sapph a hug and said, It will only be a week. Hopefully. He gave her a kiss not a peck, and said, Should we go Zuki? Yes let's go.

Right after they left, Sapph called James and told him what was going on. Chloe heard, and snuck off on her 4 wheeler. He hung up and said, Damn that girl! She needs to stop sneaking off.

They had just gotten to the dojo when Chloe showed up. Zorin! Is it true? You decided to go in the Magic Cell? Yes Chloe. I will be in there for at least a week. Fine. When you get out, we are going to have a cousin outing ok? Yes. I will still take you out somewhere. You better Zorin, or I will never forgive you. Chloe watched him leave. Dammit! She said. Why is it always Zorin!

Ok here we are Zorin. Your wife gave me your coloring stuff, so you can sketch something in here if you want. Maybe it will help. Thanks Zuki. Zuki went out and told Tsuna to watch Zorin. Peek in if you have to make sure he doesn't cause trouble. Yes Zuki.

Zuki went out to join everyone else. Chloe went over to Zuki. Hey how is Zorin? Well he thanked me after I took him, I gave him his colored pencils and pad of paper and left. I also told Tsuna to watch him closely. Even if he had to peek in. Chloe felt more relaxed.

Finally it was the middle of the week. Zuki and Master went to go check on Zorin. Hey Tsuna. Said Zuki. How is Zorin? See for yourself. He opened the door and they slowly walked in. Zorin? Said Zuki very cautiously. Zorin turned around and both Master and Zuki were shocked. Zorin was really pale. Ok Zorin. What have you been doing in here to help yourself? Zorin didn't talk but he showed them his pictures. You have been drawing pictures of people riding on 4 wheelers? Does that calm you? Zorin used his fingers as to say, a little bit. Zorin? Can you talk at all? Said Zuki. Yes I can. I just don't feel like it right now. He said in a weak voice. Master said, Ok Zorin, I know you don't want to, but I want you to meditate with us. Fine. I will try anything to stop me from feeling like this. He crossed his legs, and when Master and Zuki closed their eyes he did too. Master said, Breathe in the good and out the bad. Zorin took one breath and, Ahh no! This isn't working. It needs to stop! Zorin. Hey Zorin! Said Zuki. Zorin! Can you hear us?! Said Master. Zorin! Come on! Open your eyes! Zorin slowly opened his eyes and said, This is why I was afraid to meditate. I know who can help. We need to go to your old high school. They can help. The people in the Lab. We are going to bring Sanchez, Mr. J., maybe even Dr. Bone will be there. Yeah, I think that will be best. The only thing that can help me now is a doctor. We will be right back to get you.

Master called Mr. J. to tell him what is going on. Also that he will be bringing doctors in. OK I will get things ready. I will be ready in about 2 hours. OK good.
