A new life starts in the closet [FINISHED]

[Miyu]

"Yeah but what if I got stronger and hurt you on accident?" She shook her head. "I don't want to take that chance. Sparring is one thing but when you don't have anyone more experienced to oversee it then it can be dangerous. People can die if they don't take the right precautions."

She wanted him to understand how dangerous this is. Besides..... it looked like her had been forced to fight enough in his life. Miyu didn't want to add to that. "Won't you be glad to not fight anymore?"

[Arai]

His head tilted to one side slightly. He doubted that she could hurt him enough to cause any fatality. Even with the burns he had before nothing was life threatening. If it was his creators would have helped him. But since they didn't it clearly wasn't too much damage.

But him not fighting, he didn't know what to think of that. It was something that he had done for a long time and he had to do it to survive. But now, he's been curled up in a closet living without having to hurt anything or prove his worth. It was nice...
"Arai will do anything to help Miyu. She saved me from the Creators and gives me food and a warm bed. Arai would die helping Miyu." He smiled broadly meaning his words entirely. He didn't know how to lie anyway.

[Miyu]

He would die for her? She sat up and stared at him. So this was what having a friend was like? She'd always wondered about it. Miyo was so popular. She had tons of friends. Miyu though, had always been a loner. She didn't get along with other people very well and most of the kids at her school avoided her.

Miyo always said that if she just acted more friendly then tons of people would like her, she'd probably even have a boyfriend. But didn't that defeat the purpose? If you had to change yourself to get people to like you, then they weren't really friends were they?

She got off the bed and kneeled before him. Her face flushed as she gave him a very lose hug. She hadn't hugged anyone in years.....

[Arai]

What was... She doing...? Arai tilted his head to one side and watch as she held him. He didn't know what he was suppose to do but he knew that ruining the moment would be a bad thing. This was one of the times he was disappointed in his lack of knowledge. There was no doubt that he should be doing something here... he just didn't know what. He could try to mimic what she was doing... But what if it was wrong..? She would forgive him, he knew that much but...

Against his thoughts he slowly wrapped his arms around her body as she was doing to him. It felt oddly nice... He didn't know what to make of it.

[Miyu]

Miyu gave a little cough and pulled back. She went back to the bed and stared out th window with a light blush on her face. She just wasn't an emotional person at least not on the outside. Showing afection was difficult for her.

"Sorry bout that."

[Arai]

He watched her carefully. He was still very confused, but it seemed that what he had done wasn't wrong. Though, he wasn't completely sure of that. His head tilted to one side again.

"What was that?" he asked curiously.

[Miyu]

it took Miyu a moment to realize what he was asking.

"oh. Umm that was a hug.... it's a physical way of showing afection...." that was awkward but oh well one less thing he didn't know now.

She gave him a smile. "Because we're Friends.

[Arai]

So he did it right!That made him happy. He did everything right without knowing exactly what he was doing. Because we were friends that made him smile even bigger. He didn't exactly know what the definition was, but he was slowly beginning to understand.

"Because we're friends," he repeated smiling broadly.

[Miyu]

Miyu smiled again. Slowly she layed back down on the bed.

"I dunno where to even start looking but I guess we'll find someone. You don't have to train if you don't want to." After all she wanted a normal life ot be avalible ot him and fighting would complicate thagt.

[Arai]

Why wouldn't he want to? He was raised to fight. He was already use to killing those that need to be. He has already witnessed pain from others and his own. There was little in fighting that he hasn't seen. At least, so he thought.

"Arai wants to... Does you not want him to?"

[Miyu]

"I want you to do what you want to. Don't feel like you have to do anything."

After all she enjoyted fighting and he had been forced to. Surely he would have some aversion ot it? Then again maybe not.

[Arai]

What was he to answer to that? Arai stood and walked to her bed before hopping on it. The springs lightly creaked but it wasn't nearly as much as it should have.

He held out his claws to her. "What are these for?" He asked the same question for his fangs, muscle, and a little flare of his energy.

[Miyu]

"Survival." She answered. She gave a little smirk since she knew that he was trying to prove a point and she was ruining it.


"I mean it. you don't have to fight. You can have a peaceful life."

[Arai]

That was mean. But he still laughed at her reply and expression. She did that on purpose. But what a peaceful life was he didn't know. If it was this, it might get boring eventually.

"I will help Miyu. I will fight when she does and live a peaceful life when she doesn't."

[Miyu]

That made Miyu smile. There was actually someone who was on her side. Not just someone wh osaid they weer when all they wanted ot do was control her or yell at her for not being like her sister.

"Thanks Arai."
