From too much running my legs ached, and I also had a pain in my stomach.
I then noticed an abandoned building and tried to find a way inside. Eventually I found an opening where we could get in.

I sat down and carefully layed my little brother down beside me. He was now fast asleep next to me.

That night I had a hard time sleeping...Lost in the thoughts of what just happended...
"My parents were killed, I'm now an orphan, I'm homeless and I am alone to raise my brother by myself....But wait they weren't just killed....They were murdered."
I then remembered how a mysterious person kept threatning them.. If they didn't make a deal over the inventions then something bad would happen...And well it did end up happening. " That mysterious person has got to do with the murder of our parents."
I looked around in the dark area we were in, it was scary, cold but I felt way safer in here and that my brother was safe with me, at least we now had shelter.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I woke up in the morning and my little brother was gone. I was scared because now something might have happened to him. I looked around and called his name " Hiro, Hiro where are you!!??" and there he was by the enterance. Startled he looked at me and started crawing my way "Tadasshhi" He said smiling as I picked him up " Yes Hiro... Tadashi" and I smiled and gave him a hug.

"Hmmm" I sat there thinking "how are we gonna get food to eat?" I put my hand in my pocket and looked around...And then I felt something that felt rolled up and took it out "Aha thank you... $100 will help us... I almost forgot I even had this still." I took my brother and we were out exploring, nothing was familiar. Then we came across a vending machine, Hiro wouldn't stop pointing at a vending machine "What is it Hiro?" Then I looked up "Oh Gummy Bears...I should have known" I put a coin into the machine and the gummy bears came out and I grabbed them from the machine "Here you go Hiro, I know that you love Gummy Bears but I get one."

We walked into a store and I bought some milk, bread, Water, blankets, pillows, and some other food and things.
"There, that should be good for now" and then we left back to our new home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A year went by since we lived by ourselves. Every day it seemed to get harder and harder living by ourselves. Hiro started to get really sick and I was scared for him and as was I starting to get a little sick as well. We weren't eating proper food, the only thing Hiro seemed to want to eat was his Gummy Bears.

I sat there one morning thinking, wondering what will happen when we get caught. What will happen to us? where will we go? I don't want to go to an orphanage...And I defently cannot loose my little brother.

"Hmmm." I decided that it was time to go back out, I grabbed our pillows and blankets and put them in bags and then we were off. I was holding my little brother who was getting worse and he started shaking, I walked down the busy street, and there standing in front of us was a Cop "What are you kids doing out here all alone?" he asked and then drank some of his Cofee " Exploring around.." he looked at me "Is that your brother there young man?" he said pointing at my brother "Um yes..." "He looks pale...You should come with me back to the Police Department" I knew that maybe I shouldn't because he's still a stranger but I needed help and he probably was the only help I could get "Ok" I said following him to his Police car."So kid do you live over by here?" he asked while driving " Yes...Well um I did.." I said looking at my shoes "So where's your parents shouldn't you be with them?" he said raising an eyebrow "I um..They are gone..They have been gone.." he drove on to a long Orange Bridge "Oh I'm sorry about that..So you um you kids living with any family members then?"
"Um no, Don't think we have any... Um hey where are we going?" To me this placed looked familiar like I have been here before " This is The City Of Sanfransokyo kid" he said smiling as we finally came off the bridge onto a long curvy road.

In no time we were at the Police Department which was located some where downtown the city "Wait here kid" said the Police Officer as he walked over to another Police Officer. The Tv was on and was on to the News Channel. But then I saw something that made me want to cry. A news report about my parents death and us missing, it says we have been missing for a year now.
"Now I know who you are Mr. Hamada and this must be your little brother Hiro." Said a Police Officer
"Please come with us Mr. Hamada" said a lady. We then went into a room and they asked me questions about how long we have been living alone and when my brother started to get sick.

We slept at the Police Department that night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mr. Hamada we have good news!!" Said the lady walking in
"Yes? what good news?" I asked
"We have found a living relative of yours who has been worried about you kids, she will be coming to pick you up around noon today." A living relative? Oh yeah I forgot... An aunt who owns a Cafe called The Lucky Cat Cafe, and she also lives there upstairs. I have met her before a few times actually when I was younger, she was a very nice person.
"Ok" I said and smiled
"You should start packing Mr.Hamada" she said nodding
"Ok" and so I started packing our things, and soon as we know it we would be living in Sanfransokyo with our Aunt that I have met before but Hiro didn't really know much about or have seen a lot.
