Chapter 12 Reunion after A year and A half

It had been a year and 6 months since I had got my memory back. I am almost 19 years old. I have been getting closer with Rin and we are still together. No matter what Elias tried to stop us from ever giving each other reasons not to be together. He didn't want to lose any of us. Haha. Spoken like a true brother, I guess. Everything had been peaceful for now. Rin and I were actually talking to mom and dad about getting an apartment together. They were shocked at first, but then they agreed. They wanted us to get one in the same building as them, so we though we might for starters then eventually get a place a little further away.

"Hey Kai! I need you for a minute please!" "I'm coming Rin!" I said. "Hey what's up babe." I said. "Can you get this for me I'm having trouble." "Yeah hang on." She wanted me to untangle a string on one of her jewelry things. "Are you ready to go Kai." "Yeah just about." Kaia, Cliff, and my brothers are coming back from sea after so long. They said they would try to be here for my 19 birthday which is in 2 months. "Ok mom dad Elias. We are going. We should be gone for a while. So, don't worry." "OK Kai. Take care of Rin for us." Said mom. "Sis be nice to Kai. Kai same for my sis." "Yes Elias." We both said.

We made it to the port and saw a ship a ways away assuming it was cliff and Kaia's ship. Once they got closer, I knew it was them. As we were waiting for them, I felt someone tap me on the shoulder which made me jump. "Woah kid. Didn't mean to scare you." It was Sea. "Sea! Don't scare me like that! When I am focused, I jump easily." "Sorry about that. Hey Rin. Kai treating you good?" "Of course, I'm treating her good. She's treating me fine to thanks to Elias." "Haha. That's good. Elias is an interesting kid, isn't he?" "You can say that again." Said Rin. The ship finally came to shore.

Captain and Cliff were the first ones off. "Hey Cliff and Captain! Good to see you after a year and 6 months. You were pushing it there for getting it to my birthday. Its in 2 months from now." "Yeah we know. Cliff and Kaia didn't let us forget. Neither did your older brothers." Then Kaia and my brothers came down. "Hey little brother and big brothers. Woah Aiden. You've grown, haven't you? You are like a tad bit taller than me now." "Haha yep I am. I don't think I'm going to get any taller though." "By the way love the voice." "Oh yeah. I finally got my manly voice as well. Haha." "I got my girlfriend here with me today. How long are you guys staying this time?" "Dad's actually thinking about retiring from the ocean. Once in a while he might have a little boat ride but that's about it. Mom is agreeing as well. They were talking about it for awhile now since they knew you were alive." Said Fury. "Well that would be cool." "Hey Sea." Said Dylan. "Hey, Dylan, how've you been?" "Can't complain." So we talked a bit and my girlfriend went over to Kaia to talk a bit.

After awhile after we talked a bit, they said they were definitely going to stay for my birthday before they left. They weren't sure when they were going to leave again. "Oh We all either got you a little something, or made you a little something for your birthday when we were gone." Said Dylan. "Thanks guys. You didn't need to. Just you making it is good enough. Have you heard word if Kairi is coming yet?" "No. No word. Hope she makes it." "Yeah me too. OK guys. I guess Rin and I gotta head out. I have some plans. See you all in a bit ok?" "We will be waiting." Said Fury. So I went over to Kaia and got Rin then we headed out on a date.

Rin and I wandered around town for our date. I made it look like we weren't really going anywhere until we got closer to our destination. "Surprise Rin!" We went to a romantic spot with green grass and a few Sakura trees. "Wow. This is beautiful." "I thought you might like it. I'm sorry its been awhile since we were able to go out. I just had to get used to everything again after so long. I wanted to get in the Routine of writing letters to my cousins as well. So this is how I wanted to make it up to you. Oh yeah. Your birthday is 2 months after mine huh?" "Yes exactly 2 months and 3 years." "You don't have to mention the years Jeeze. Make it sound like I'm a kid saying your 3 years older than me." "Hehe. Oh Kai. Your so adorable." She kissed me on the lips, and I was shocked at first but then I relaxed and kissed her back. "Remember my birthday a year ago when Elias had that big surprise?" "Yeah. I sort of helped him with that. I only just a little then he said he would do the rest, so I let him." "How did you guys manage that? How did you get my favorite band to come over and play for us in town?" "Hehe. If I told you I would have to kill you. I'm being serious." "Haha OK keep your secrets. I really wanted to do something special for Elias' Birthday in 3 months. I need your help." "It would be my pleasure. Oh, and I know just the thing he has been bugging me about. Its his favorite skateboarder Tony Hawk. He has been waiting to meet him for years. It was always If I met tony hawk this and If I meet tony hawk that type of thing." "Haha. I can see that. I can contact him pretty easy. It's the actually party I would need help with." "That would be the easy part. Leave it to me." So we talked about our future and just snuggled under a Sakura tree and enjoyed our time.

The sun was setting, and it was getting dark. "We should probably get going Rin. I don't want anything bad happening to you. I may be younger than you, but I am strong and about 4 inches taller than you. I will be able to protect you. I promise." So, we started walking home cautiously. I looked everywhere we walked just to be sure nothing would happen.

We got to our apartment building peacefully. Then I felt something dangerous. I stopped and told Rin to go in the apt now. It was on the second floor. So, Rin did as she was told and walked quietly up to the house and went in. I turned around and ran the opposite direction away from the apartments to make sure they stayed away from my family whoever they were.

"Dammit! Why is everyone after me? What did I do to deserve this?" I noticed as I was running, they were following me. Then I sensed another presence that seemed familiar. I looked on my right side and I saw Sea. "What's going on Sea! There are people after me and following me. Dangerous presence." "Yes, I know. That is why I am here. I will take care of them. I was sent here to watch over you after all." "I'm sorry. I can't let you." I knew Sea's weak spot and hit him in it, he collapsed on the ground still awake. By the time he was able to get up I was too far away for him to come after me.

Once I knew I was far enough away from people, I shouted "Show yourselves!" About 6 people surrounded me. I was sure. There was more, and the boss was hiding somewhere. There was moonlight luckily, so I was able to see a bit. "What do you want from me? Who the hell are you people?" They didn't say anything. There was silence for a moment, then they started attacking. I had no weapon with me at the moment, but I think that was their plan.

I fought them off as best as I could without a weapon. Surprising I only came out with a few scratches and maybe a wound that need a couple of stitches, but I knew I would live.

"I fought off your six men! Now tell me who the hell you people are?!" I shouted again. This time a man who I am assuming was the boss, came close to talk to me. I had my guard up just in case. "You want to know who we are huh? Why we are after you? Well I will take off my mask. Just don't judge us before we explain ok? Can you promise me that?" "It depends on who you may or may not be." He took off his mask. "No. No way." I was shocked on who I saw.
