Riku looked at Teresa and smiled alittle. "Thank you... Um.. Goodnight.. I haven't said that in a while.." He smiled and laid down on his cot. He pulled the blanket over himself and closed his eyes. The fatigue he had been feeling since yesterday was catching up. When he let his head and muscles relax,a sudden fatigue from fighting came over him. He felt so weighted down. he fell asleep like a small child would

Kyin mumbled a soft 'goodnight' in repsonse to what Teresa had said. He felt her hair on her arm and smiled slightly. A few tears still falling from his eyes. He held her close to his body. He let his body relax and He felt der. He was soon in astate of sleep. He felt a cool wind come over him and knew he was falling asleep with Teresa in his arms.

Kyin opened his eyes and threw a pillw at the half-opened door. "What an annoying snob..." He rubbed his eyes and looked at Teresa. "Yeah? Why do you look so concerned? You didn't really do anything wrong. You may not know, but orphans here usually sleep with their family members ro boyfriend/girlfriend.. The monitors hardly care but they do snap a lot." He sat up and put his hand on his stomach. "Stupid girl.... I'm guna kick her... mmh.." He stood up and stretched. He kicked Riku off his cot and pulled a shirt on.

Riku fell to the floor and sat up. "You.." His red eyes darkening. "Your lucky you were cryign last night ot I'd punch the hell out of you.." He stood up and pulled some normal clothes on. "Teresa, are you okay? You look really pale.."

(Rocca! Here is  a repost..)

Dakota~ He looked to his thin frame then looked back up to Rukiea “oh uh im naturally thin” he gave a weak smile then she held out have “are you sure?” he lightly took the half the apple looking at it in his large hands then took a small bite.”thank you..so..why are you here? I mean if you don’t mind me asking that is” he immediately felt guilt for even asking “im sorry I uh shouldn’t have asked that was wrong of me’

Rukiea~ Rukiea laughed a little. "it's fine. I'm outside because there is nothing to do.. And i'm in this damned orphanage because my parents died in a fire along with my little brother. It wasn't very hot, but they were all stabbed to death then the house was set on fire. I was at my friends house. and... well..." Rukiea began to tear up. She saw the burning house again and the smoke rising from the windows. She felt like she was about to die again. She shook slightly. "I didn't get to see them.. All I saw..." Her lip quivered and her voice began to crack. "was their charred bodies being rolled out..." She began to sob and she impulsively hugged Dakota. Rukiea buried her face in his shoulder and began to cry.

Kyin pulled on a shirt and looked at his bullet necklace. "Here.. Let me.." He reached out for her but Riku slapped his hands away. Kyin knew what he was about to do, would just cause Teresa to tell him his habit was bad again. "N-nevermind.." He walked out the door and held onto his bullet. His eyes looking down toward his feet. He bumped into the boys who had beat him the other day. A sudden rage took over him. He could see nothing but red. He knew he was just being a kid, but he shook his head.

One boy reached out for Kyin and tried to punch him. Kyin quickly slapped the boys hand away and returned the punch with a palm strike to the boy's ribs. Kyin's eyes narrowed and he pushed the boy back so hard that the boy stumbled and landed on the boy behind him. Kyin caught one boy's fist and twisted his wrist to the side. Kyin looked up and the boys began to run down teh hall. But the leader remained.

Riku looked at Teresa. "Sorry. I wanted to just prevent him from carrying you. I know he doesn't want to upset anybody..." He looked at her. "Are you really sleepy? Damn.. Maybe I should hae let him carry you.."

Kyin looked at her and his face softened. "Yeah.. Your right. I don't know what came over me... I guess.. I just needed to vent something... But it's not done.. Nope.. Not een close.." He walked into the cafeteria and took a tray. He watched as some weird and bumpy oatmeal was splattered into a bowl. He looked at it with distaste and watched as a lady gave his a decently cooked egg and toast. He took an orange juice and waited for Teresa and Riku to get their food. "I'll go get a table.."

Riku followed them and noticed the "leader" of the boy's gang run off down the hall "Your luckey Kyin didn't snap..." He walked into the cafeteria and selected a cereal bowl. Half-stale cereal was poured in his bowl and some slightly spoiled milk. He grabbed a cranberry juice and looked at Teresa "Why did you pull Kyin away? He was about to snap.. It would hae been fun to watch what my brother can really do."

Kyin looked at her. "I have the medicine for the headmaster and those of authority already.. But i have no intention of trying to escaped today. They are going on double guard today becasue there is supposed to be a higher up coming today. If they see us escaping, they'll punish us like they did me and Riku on our first try. We were little, so we got off easy. But the scars don't heal... So i refuse to try today while there are guards everywhere.." Kyin ate his breakfast quickly and reached under the table. He pulled off a pencil and sketchpad. He opend it up and began to draw a boy, looking like himself, crying his eyes out.

Riku looked at Teresa. "Sorry, Kyin is just pent up about something.. and he neds to cool his stupid head before he gets knocked upside his head."

Kyin looked at the drawing and ripped it out of his notebook. He handed it to Teresa. "Burn it.." He stood up and walked toward his room. He noticed his door open and he ran in. He looked around. The dresser was overturned and the small door had been unlocked. The picture and locket insdei had been taken. A note was left. he looked at it.

Riku looked at Teresa. "What a destructive personality... You would fit it great witht heh other Kyin... I don;t see the other Kyin often thought.."
