Riku watched as his father walked in from the living room. His father was taller than he was and much more built. However, his adoptive father did use drugs and other substances to perform better. He sat down and began to eat. He glared at Riku. "Why you .. You worthless kid! You didn't make the meat soft enough! My teeth aren't as good as they used to be!" He stood up, towering over Riku. Riku trembled. What did he do wrong this time?! He cooking it for the same amouth of time as always. "I-I'm sorry father.. I-I'll cook you another one.." He turned around to open teh fridge. His father grabbed his shoulders and shoved him into the fridge. Riku slammed his chest and cheek into the fridge. He trembled more. "F-Father.. I-I didn't do anything wrong.."

Riku's father grabbed him and drug him into the living room, where he had more room. He threw riku onto the table, breaking a vase on Riku's back. Riku coughed up blood and rolled off the table. He panted and stood up. He punched his father square in teh jaw, which only upset him more. "You little!" He grabbed Riku and took out a pocket knife. He shreded Riku's shirt and sliced open teh scar on Riku's chest. He carried Riku and walked to a window. "Don't you dare do that again!" The threw riku out the window, shards flying onto the gr*censored* and stabbing Riku's hand and back. Riku stayed alying on the gr*censored*. He finally sat up after a few minutes and stumbled out the gate. He had to get away. He ran clumsily toward the orchestra dome, hopeing nobody would be there.

(i hope i wasnt controlling your character :/ if so tell me)

Sunni looked up towards the position of the deep orange sun in the now setting sky. She knew it was time to meet Riku at the stadium. She smiled to herself and climbed of the roof from the trellis her feet splashing in the cool gr*censored* and mud. Then she started to walk into the middle of the empty street, calm and relaxed humming to herself as the sun hit her warming herself. The air was muggy and hot, smelling like fresh cut gr*censored* and earth. The feeling made her feel free like anything was possible.Sunni closed her eyes letting her happiness all soak in. Almost to the stadium,Til she heard someone walking infort of her.She slowly opened her eyes to see who it was at first her mind froze when she saw Riku stammering covered in blood “RIKU!!” Her voice screeched in cracked in fear.She ran up to him putting her arms around him to hold him up. “oh my gawd what happened,what happened!”but in the back of her mind sunni knew exactly what had happened it filled her heart with fear and sadness.Tears welled in her eyes.“its,its okay riku its okay im here im here”her voice smooth whispereing in his ear as she tried to hold back from sobbing.She slowly gided him to the gr*censored* to lay down

(it's fine. He needed it XD)

Riku let his body fall onto the cool gras.s and lettin ghis fast beating heart slow down. He looked at Sunni, color was gone form his face. "Ngh.. Don't worry about me.. Please don't." He could feel tears in his eyes. He never wanted to cry but he never wanted to keep this to himself. His father.. His abusive, sadistic father... He knew the pain on Riku's face was enough to make his father happy and to find more ways to torture him. He wasn't about to let his eyes well with tears. He kept them back and starred at Sunni. "I'm fine.... This... This happens all too much.." He closed his eyes slightly. "Just take me.. Take me to the dome... I wana fix myself.. There's a first aid kit there... Please.. Just take me.." He sat up painfully and it showed on his face. He stood and began to walked down the hill leading to the dome. "Come on.. mmh... I don't want anybody else to see me like this.. Especailly my little brother.."

Kyin ran inside and dark house and up to his room. He put his art supplies away and walked dwon teh stairs. His father was happily eating a porkchop, rice, beans, and drinking a beer. He looked arounnd. Nothing seemed out of teh ordinary. THe broken window was now replaced, the shards cleaned from the gras.s and floor. "Father, where is Riku?" He walked over to his dad.

"My boy, he's run off again. Don't you worry about him. Just go upstairs and paint something pretty or draw what you usually do." He smiled at Kyin.

Riku looked at Sunni and gave her a weak smile. "I'm fine. and as for you wanting to know about me and my past or family or whatever you want to know, I'm not sure if you really want to know.. So, just ask me a question and I'd be glad to answer any question you want to know about me." He turned his attention to the piano now. The air was crisp as the dusk settled in and engulfed the night sky with darkness. He looked up and saw the stars had already begun to pop from the darkness like small holes in a fabric. He looked as the moon let it's light engulf the stadium with low but beautiful light. He looked at Sunni and then he knew what he would play. He turned his head and eyes back to the ivory keys of the grand paino. He breathed in deeply and let it out slowly. He closed his eyes and searched for the sheet music in his head. He let his hands and fingers search the keys before he began his song. The stadium filled with sound and melody from the piano. The music resonating from the half-dome of the stadium and then heading out toward the town. He opened his eyes and continued to play.

(Riku's song- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0NfOJsoU90&feature=my_favorites&list=FLICTS5EMUw_o)

Riku finished his song and looked at Sunni. He wiped her tears gently with his thumb. He smiled slightly and knew she understood the song. He didn't see the sadness and sorrow in her tears. "Heh, you seem to cry when I end up playing. You shouldnt cry. Your too pretty." He turned his head to the stars and saw that more were appearing in the sky as the sun's final sliver creeped behind the mountains to leave the moon and darkness in it's wake. He smiled and looked at Sunni. "Alright, don't cry please. Your really not suposed to cry. I feel like you are showing pity for me. I don't need pity..." He put his hand on her shoulder and let his own eyes well with tears. Are you really going to cry? What would your father say if he saw you cry like that? You know he'll merely beat the crap out of your body and you can't do a thing about it. Riku's thoughts raced through his mind and he felt something inside. He knew he wanted the night to never end and to have the night just fade away slowly with the sound of his piano and this girl at his side. He let a tear escape his silver eyes and run down his suprisingly soft cheek and drop off his chin to land on his pants.
