Chapter 23 - Brother

Death Seven- Third Person Point of View

"Oh my! You're finally home! Can I see the baby now!" A 9 year old Touka jumps up and down when the moment Kya and Kai arrive home from the hospital.

"Yes, Touka. You can see him now," Kai said while he kneels down for Touka see the baby.

"Wow! He's so cute! What's his name?" She asks them.

"Shun," Kai said. "Touka, although you'd just started living with us and will start in the Academy, we want you to be there for him."

"But... I'm not his sister..." Touka said upset.

"You have our clan's Shizengan. I know we can't replace your real family. Wherever they are. However, we like you to count you as our family."

Years past as the family grew happily. Touka helped out Kya with Shun whenever she's home from school, training, and missions. She taught Shun how to walk and read. She acted as a loving sister and Shun was happy to have her in his life. Until one day, Touka returned to the village, but not at the (l/n)'s clan house. The young Shun was confuse and asked many times where is Touka. Weeks later, he overheard his parents conversation about her. Confirming, that Touka had disappeared. Sadness grew inside him that day and became the start of keeping his distances from his family and friends. That lasted for a long months until his parents came with big news.

"I'm going to be a big brother?" A 7 year old Shun asked his parents.

"Yes, Shun. Isn't it wonderful?" Kya asked him. He wanted nod happily, but looked down at the floor with a sad look on his face. "What wrong?"

"My baby brother or sister won't disappear too, right? Or at least... The village won't..." Shun finally asked. Admitted he was still sad about Touka no longer in his life and heard his parents' conversation.

"Shun," Kai kneels down and hugs his son. "We will make sure she won't ever leave. No one in this family will leave you. Nothing will change that. Listen to what I said and trust my words."

The young Shun nods with a cute serious face, "I'll make sure I'm the best brother she has!" He said to his parents which made them laugh and smile.

A mix of happiness and depression overboard Shun's head. The happiness of the arrival of his sister and the depression from the death of his mother. He continues to feel that way as years go on. However, he continued to be the best brother he could be to (y/n). While he felt like wasn't for letting his father hurt (y/n). He wanted to stop it, but his grandfather wouldn't let him due to his belief that would stop. It finally stopped, but not the way he wanted. He lost both his father and grandfather.

"Shun!" Shun heard Alice voice from behind him, but he ignored and continued to walk towards the gates. She finally stopped him by the arm. "Stop! Please talk to me! How could you not talked to us for a month and randomly decided to take high ranks and far off missions!?"

"This is none of your concern..." it was all he could say.

"What about your sister? You can't just leave her-"

"She'll be fine. Momo, my mother's ninneko partner, will watch her," Shun said while not looking at her.

"No she won't! She'll need her brother! She lost two people in her life too! And it was right in front of her eyes-"

Shun didn't take it anymore. He turned around and forced his lips on Alice's to shut her up. After a second, he pulled away with his eyes and month wide open. He didn't mean to do it, but did it anyway. Alice hung her head slightly down and touched her lips.
