Zuki was strong enough to walk a short distance. He sat next to Bella. Hey Bella. I had a feeling it was you under that mask. I knew your Mother. I think I might be your brother. No one got a note from Mom. I am so sorry Bella. I didn't know till now. I was lost in a fire, they must have thought I was probably dead. I'm sure they loved me. I just wish I knew about you sooner. Bella woke up. Her eyes fluttered. Zuki? She said trying to get up but couldn't. Hey don't get up Bella. It's ok. I had a feeling you were related to me when we met. We are similar in so many ways. Mom told me about you. She thought you were dead in the fire, and it was hard on them. No one ever got a note. She put it in Dad's mailbox by his dorm room. Tsuna must have taken it. I'm sorry. It's not your fault. She said in tears. I was mad all this time for not knowing who my father was, I never dreamed I would meet my brother. When I am better, I would like to get to know you better. For you to know me as well. There are 2 others in the orphanage Mom put me in, that we have to get out. Since Zeth was one of them, he has Zania. I hope I have you. I have to stay with little Rain. She is 5 years old. We have been together since she was a baby. Shinta who is 8 years old. I'm sure we can find homes for them, once everyone is better. We will call the Orphanage and have them meet us ok? Thanks brother. She laid back down to sleep.
Kiara finally woke up. Zorin was able to walk over to her. Hey Kiara. Said Zorin almost stumbling over. What is your story? What do you mean my story? Well everyone has a story who ends up as villian's, or here in this place. Well nothing to tell. Come on. There is something. Fine. After my Mom died, I had no one. I was on my own. I sat down in a field, in the middle of nowhere and cried. A man in red came by and said his name was Jay. He asked if I wanted to come with him. I said yes, I didn't have anywhere else to go. What if me and my wife took you in? My wife has the same power as you do. Really? That would be great! Would you really do that for me? After all we have done? Yeah, why not? You are still kids anyway. Thank you so much Zorin. Thank you. She got up and hugged him. He hugged her back. It will be ok Kiara. Sapph will be happy to have another daughter in the house. After awhile everyone was better.
Aww man. I'm glad I'm better. I better call Sapph, she's probably wondering where I am. Said Zorin. He got his phone and called her. Hey Sapph, it's Zorin. I would have been home sooner, but the marks activated. It took us a while to recover. We are good now. You don't have to come over here, I will be there soon. Also we need to talk about something when I get there. I will have a teenage girl with me. OK. Said Sapph. I will be waiting. Next time, have someone let me know what has happened. I was worried something serious might have happened to you. NO. Not this time anyway. Love you Sapph. See you soon.
OK. Now that we are all better. Said Zorin. I want to see the color of everyone's Mark. What are you talking about Zorin? Said Zuki. Everyone else looked Confused too. He took off his shirt and showed everyone his Sapphire Blue Mark. Everyone looked at theirs. Zuki's was a Burgundy Red, Bella's was Purple, Kiara's was Green, Zania's was Dark Pink, and Master's was Black. Cool! Everyone has a different color and design. Hey Bella and Kiara. Said Zorin. Did your marks hurt when they developed like I said? OH hell yeah. Said Kiara. I'm normally not a crybaby, but damn! That felt like the worst pain in my life. Worse then when I got shot in the side. Wait, when did you get shot? Said Zorin. I will tell you my story later. Right now lets just be happy we are alive. Yeah good idea. Said Zorin. Hey, anyone see Sky anywhere? Yeah. Said Zuki. He was headed toward the River View. OK. Thanks. Be right back.
Zorin made it to the River View, and saw Sky sitting there. He was hesitant to walk up to him. He was going to turn around a leave, when Sky spoke up. Hey Zorin. It's ok if you join me. I know you are probably worried about me, among my family. Zorin went over, and sat next to him. Hey man. What's up? Said Zorin. Oh nothing. I was just thinking about Jay, Mystery's brother. It's strange. I wonder what happened to him? He used to be a nice guy, and silly. Kind of like Zuki. Your right. He used to be. He told Bluefire, he has a way of getting Mystery on his side. I just hope nothing happens. I don't know what Jason would do. if she was taken. Plus the kids. How would they react? Yeah. Your right. Said Sky. Oh hey Sky. I wanted to thank you for getting the book back and saving everyone. No problem Zorin. The only 2 I know who can read it are me and Master. I am sure there are more. We just don't know who yet. Yeah I guess not. Well we bettter head back. Said Sky. Let's go. Yeah.
They both went to the dojo, and Zorin said, Hey I found Sky. Everyone went up to thank him for saving the day. He was a little nervous. He wasn't used to all the attention. Ok Everyone. Break it up. Said Zorin. Thanks Man. Yeah your welcome. Hey were did Zen go? Oh. Said Master. He told me to tell you he went back work, and has another week before he can dye the metal. Oh ok. Sounds good.
Hey Zuki. Have you and Bella talked yet? Yeah we have. Is it alright if I tell them Bella? Yeah sure. Bella is my sister. Our Mom was named Serena. She left a note for our Dad in his mailbox in college, but he apparently never got it. That was when Bella was born 16 years ago. Sorry guys. A little emotional here. Said Zuki. So I am going to take her in. I will call the orphanage she stayed at, and get the last two kids there. Shinta who is 8, and a little 5 year old named Rain. I will be taking the 5 year old, and I'm sure someone here would take Shinta. Tsuna spoke up. I will. OH Tsuna. Hi there. Where have you been? Oh just on a walk. OK now we have a family for all the kids. So I am going to make that phone call now.
Zuki called the orphanage and said, Hello? This is Zuki. I found Bella. I would like to take her in. Is there a time we can meet? Yes. How about 1:00? Sounds good. Oh and bring Shinta and Rain. We have families for them. Thankyou. Oh, and my name is Mrs. Runner. OK. Thank you. Mrs. Runner. I will see you in the village in the mountains at 1:00. See you then. Ok everyone. At 1:00, the lady from the Orphanage is coming. Said Zuki. Zuki? I have to talk to Tsuna for a min ok? Said Bella. Yeah sure. Go ahead.
Tsuna. Said Bella. There is something you should know about Shinta before bringing him in. I love all 3 of the kids as siblings. I should tell you, he has had some families before take him in, but certain things happen. He does have a power, but the power is not the problem. He does have tantrums. I just want you to watch him, because he can be a danger to himself, and others if he's not careful. He usually doesn't know what he is doing. Thank you Bella, I will keep that in mind. I will deal with it when the time comes. Hey Bella? Yeah what is it? Does everyone in the Orphanage have powers? Yeah they do. If you want to know what Shintas power is, all you have to do is ask. OK. Thank you so much Bella. You have been a big help. Then she went back to Zuki.
Hey Zuki. Said Tsuna. Can I talk to you alone for a min? Yeah sure. Hey Bella. Why don't you and Kiara hang out a bit ok? Yeah sure. Thanks. OK let's go this way. They sat on a bench, and Tsuna started talking about What Zuki's real name is and the letter he had taken when he knew it was from Serena. Its not in the letter, but your real name is Kiran. I was your Dad's roommate. When I heard the name Serena, I started feeling bad. I hid the note from your Dad. I just wanted him to finish college before he knew anything. When he graduated, I was going to give it to him, but I lost it. I recently found it. Here is the letter Zuki. The letter said:
Hi Zuna,
I guess it's beyond that. I wanted to let you know the reason I left you is because I was pregnant. I was scared on how you would react, so I told you I couldn't be with you. I still love you. I know I can't take care of this child myself. I put her in a Orphanage called The house for little children. We had a daughter, I named her Bella. You know how I have always liked that name. I just thought you should know she was born. One day I hope to see you and Bella again. If you do find our son somehow, please let him know I love him. I always have loved him. If he is still alive he should be 4 now. If you do find him I would love to see him as well. I love both children very much. But I am sick, and there is no cure for what I have. It is in the beginning stage. It could last up to years or months, doctors just don't know yet. Well I better get going now. I will be waiting for you and Bella to show up, no matter how long it takes. I might show up to say goodbye to Bella one of these days, when my sickness gets worse. I hope one day to see you again. Sorry for the drops on this paper. I was crying writing this.
I will be waiting. Love yours truely Serena.
Tsuna I just.... I can't talk to you right now. I have to go for a walk. I understand. I hope one day you will forgive me. I think the one you should ask for forgiveness is Bella. She is the one you kept our Dad away from all these years. Where is he now? Do you know? Yeah, he is dead. He died not long after graduation. I was hoping to find the letter to give it to him, but never got a chance. Do you by any chance have a picture of Dad? Yeah here. Thank you Tsuna. You know Tsuna, I don't really care that you hid it from me. My parent's thought I was dead. I'm going to show the letter to Bella, and see what she thinks. Fair enough.
Zuki walked over to Bella and told her what happened. He gave her the letter that their Mom wrote for her. Hey Zuki? Do you want me to call you Kiran or continue calling you Zuki? I will stay with Zuki. Its the name I am used to. OK sounds good. Hey Bella. I am going to take a walk. I am going to go alone. I need to breathe for a min. OK Zuki. I will be here waiting after I talk to Tsuna. Don't worry. It will be ok. Just be careful Bella. Yeah I know. Thanks.
Bella walked over to Tsuna and said, Zuki told me what happened. I may be only 16, but I am mature for my age. I understand your side, and Zuki's side of the story. So I don't blame either of you. If I hadn't ended up in the orphanage, the little girl Rain probably wouldn't be here right now. Here is what I understand. Said Bella. You took the letter because you wanted our Dad to graduate college and not be distracted. I see your point. Like I said, it was a blessing in disguise. I guess things do happen for a reason. Mrs. Runner taught me that. Zuki gave me the letter you found that Mom sent our Dad. Thank you for finding it, and giving it to him. It meant a lot to us. I could see it in his eyes. Thank you. I think that is one of the most meaningful things he has gotten from anyone. So thank you Tsuna. Bella? Do you hate me for doing this too? No I don't hate you. I don't blame you either. It will take awhile for Zuki to be close friends with you again. Until then, I will have to go with him on that one. I understand. Thank you Bella. Sure no problem.
Zuki came back looking refreshed. Hey Zuki. You look better. Yeah thanks Bella. I just talked to Tsuna, everything is fine. Hey Zuki? When things settle down, can we do some catching up? Maybe do some brother sister things? I would love that with all my heart. Oh thank you. Oh Bella? Did Mom ever go see you before she died? Yes she did. I was 10. She died almost 6 years ago next month. Do you know where she is buried? Actually yes. We buried her not to far from the Orphanage actually. I will show you when things calm down a bit ok? Thank you Bella. Hey Bella. Do you have a picture of Mom? Yeah. These are the only 3 I have. She had one of their Mom holding her as a baby, one of their Mom with baby Zuki, and one of them of their Mom before she got too badly sick. Thank you Bella. You know besides the hair, you look just like Mom. Do I? Thank you Zuki. Oh before I forget, I got a picture of Dad from Tsuna. Here it is. Wow Zuki, You look just like Dad. Except for the eyes. Mom had the different color eyes. Yeah. We both got that from her. Also we both got the white hair from Dad as well. Yeah. I guess you're right. Haha.
OK Everyone. Said Zorin. I have to head back to Sapph. See you all probably tomorrow. Come on Kiara. OK coming. OK Zorin. Say hello to the wife for me. Said Zuki. I will. Jason. You should head to yours too, and Sky you too. Yeah I will. Said Sky. Thanks.
