[b][u] April 9th - ??? [/u][/b]

Kaze began in a dream in surrounded by a myriad of shadows. A beam of light shone in the distance which he quickly began making his way towards. 
“Come, O noble soul. Seek me if you wish.” A voice said. 
Kaze continued to approach the light.
“For the truth shall shine from the abyss like a beacon.”
Kaze approached the figure, unable to make out his appearance due to the blinding light.
“Allow me to test your strength!” It called as a large hand grasped Kaze’s head and squeezed hard.

Kaze awoke with a start, grasping at his face before being relieved that he was not being crushed. He started to slump back down below the sheets before the door opened loudly.
[color=fff200]“Wake up! It’s time for your first day of School!”[/color] Chizuru yelled happily into the room, startling both boys awake. 
[color=fff200]”Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t think that would scare you two city boys.”[/color] Their aunt said before laughing and retreating to the kitchen. [color=fff200]”Breakfast is already on the table.”[/color]
The boys quickly got up and ready before stepping out for breakfast.

“Good, you’re dressed.” Chizuru said from a seat at the table, Sakura eating an egg sandwich next to her. “Sakura can point you towards the Highschool once she and Ishi-chan make it to school.” 
Kaze asked her why she couldn’t drive them.
“Oh, I forgot to tell you. I’m late for my shift at the Tourist Tower. I can’t just close that place down you know.” She said laughing to herself before grabbing her purse and keys. “Don’t be late now.” She said before leaving.
Kaze and Ishidaiku sat at the table and began eating their own breakfast. It seemed to be a western recipe. Kaze stopped when he noticed that Sakura looked sad. He then asked her what is wrong.
“Nothing. I’m used to this. Mom always has to leave early, so usually I get dropped off early. But mom told me to show you guys where the school is.” Sakura said slowly.
“Would you like us to hurry?” Kaze asked, taking another bite.
“No, it s’okay. I was just wanting to talk to a friend that borrowed a DVD of mine. But I can wait till lunch.” Sakura said before looking towards the clock.  “We should hurry though. It won’t be long before school starts.” 
The three quickly finished up and headed out of the house.

The trio headed towards school, several other children of varying age went the same direction. A boy with bright red hair zipped by on his bicycle, a pair of headphones on his head. He weaved between the people effortlessly. 
“He has the same uniform as you.” Sakura said. “I wonder if he’s in your class.”
Kaze wondered that too. It wasn’t long before they reached Sakura’s school, and she pointed Kaze up a small road and to the left. It was a steady uphill climb.

Kaze approached the front gate, and saw the boy from earlier battling with a bike lock that didn’t want to work. He noticed several other people in the yard, including a girl with a red scarf… in spring time… Odd…
