chapter 10 - found

Meiku venture more into the dimly lighted sketchy street , as he was unsure which way to go. He roamed around for a while with each minute passing he could feel the atmosphere of the place effecting his mood more and more. The narrow alleyway were lined up with dilapidated building that go on for miles. Meiku had an uneasy feeling in his stomach ever since he realised he was lost. The wall looked not in good condition ,filth stretch across the wall and graffiti in forms of unknow liquids tells the stories of neglect and despair.

Suddenly a group of menacing figures took meiku by suprise when he turned the corner. They were lent up against the wall seeming like some kind of gang work. As soon as this gang caught sight of this pretty little boy instantly block meiku's path.

'w..hat , is going on?? Maybe I am in there way ,I should go around. ' meiku back away from this big, tall, rotten guy's a little and attempted to go around again. BANG! meiku found himself somehow walking into a human metal pole again.

'I walked into them!?!? Yet, how was it possible . I am sure I avoided them'

" I am sorry sir, but can you please move out of the way" meiku whispered feeling over whelmed with how the feeling of oppression was emanating from them.

" Hey, did you say something little dude"

....

There was no answer.

" oh is that so I don't know why your down here. I can't tell with those kind of clothes you clearly don't belong here( he sneered) but see you down here is no coincidence. Is it. from that look on your face I can see that both you and me know you belong here."

Tears started to well up in meiku eye's as fear and lonelyness stared to grip at him. He too thought he doesn't belong in the life he living and should be here instead.

' if only shinite was here he would know what to do. I wish I didn't just run away just cause of a stupid thing like that .. I guess I am the one to blame for getting my self here. Shinite probably doesn't even know that I am lost and even if he did , would he come?'

Meiku could not help it anymore as the tears forming kept getting bigger the more he thought and eventually one began rolling done his pale face. The menacing guy watched as the boy Infront of him started to cry , the menacing guy seemed amused by him.

" hahhaha what a weak boy don't you know men are supposed to be strong and here you are crying over nothing. You know you belong in this area..." with that he started to walk away leaving meiku to cry by himself.

' There are horrible feelings in my heart and I should let them should but I can't hold them in. He right men like us should be strong why didn't I fight back?? I learned martial arts soo I could have used it but .... '

Meiku started to fall into despair as he balled his eyes out crying.

........

Shinite was following the sound of crying running into the dirt delapidated street. Not carrying about his social status. All he could think of was find meiku and if this was sound of sobbing leads to him then he would follow it anyway where.

As the crying peeked to the loudest, shinite slowed down. He approached the Conner and peeked around. He didn't want to get spot saying on someone crying if it wasn't his friend so he had to be cautious. With that small glance he found the clothes familiar and was certain that it was in fact meiku. He finally felt relieved, but that was short lived, as meiku was crying and shinite had no clue why.

" are you ok" he said while he slowly approached meiku.

There was no response. Which left shinite speechless. He didn't know what to do for he didn't know the cause of the problem again he is left tin the dark. But shinite was fine with that first thing was is to stop him crying.

Shinite had no clue how to solve the problems but Seeing his friend cry shinite had the instinct to embrace meiku. It left meiku stunned for a moment and his tears started to slow down.

" I will take you back, I am sure you don't want to stay here. Your probably tired after the long and tiring day you had out here I could never imagine how bad it got for you..." with that Shinite strong arms lifted meiku of the ground in a bridal style in hopes that meiku would relax more since he didn't have to hold on.

As meiki started to calm down a wave of exhaustion hit him in the face but he couldn't fall asleep yet he need to think of something to keep himself awake.

" Hey , thanks for staking me... home... and for coming .... to .... Search for m.....eee"

" It my pleasure, that is what freinds should do anyway to help when they are lost."

" oh ... that is ...nice". Meiku felt relieved at shinite words he felt that he could finally rely on someone at point. The feeling was so nice he found himself curly up against shinite chest and started to drift off. Shinite noticed there was no move mebt and paused for a moment a smile slowly grew apon his face and soon he carried on his journey back to the house.

It was getting dark and sun was about to set. Red and orange clouds grew across the sky it was a wonderful sight to see. The colours fading together as the shining sun stated to loose the bright white light and turn into a fiery flame. That made shinite determined to make meiku see him in a different light and if it had to be in causally ways then he would do it .
