Izana's Precious Twin

Scarred

The modeling was going well for Emma and Izumi. The chain's grand opening proved very popular and they planned to open even more in Japan. The money from that went into their bank account to be used for things like repairs or shopping. 

Izana and Kakucho had part time "jobs" too. 

Surprisingly Izumi had a free day today and boarded the subway to Shibuya. From there it was a 30 minute walk to the dojo and he let himself in. Gramps was watching tv when he head someone walking in.

It was none other than his *cough* most favorite *cough* grandkid! Izumi hugged him hello and chatted for a bit before being sent off.

"Shinichiro's friends are here if you wanna meet them."

"I'll go look."

Izumi wore the same clothes he did for the first shoot since he couldn't find anything else to wear. He followed the voices and peeked into a room that led to the outside. Shinichiro was on the couch with a guy who had a scar across his right eye.

Mikey was screaming as he ran around holding an airplane model. Izumi watched as a black haired boy and one with bleach blond hair right behind him. They hadn't noticed him yet so he sat next to his brother. As the two followed Mikey a girl with also bleach blonde hair was yelling to play with it too.

"This is my friend Takeomi Akashi! Takeomi, this is Izumi, one of my little brothers I told you about."

"Hello."

"Hey there. That's my little sis, Senju. And he's Haruchiyo. And I'm the eldest, Takeomi."

He pointed to both and pulled out a single wrapped salted caramel from his pocket. It had a shiny sea foam green wrapper covering it as he extended his hand towards Izumi. He unwrapped it to reveal a smooth, round caramel nestled inside. 

It was the most delicious thing he ever tasted. The freshly made candy melted and coated his tastebuds feeling like heaven. Shinichiro and Takeomi chuckled seeing the blissful look on his face.

He finished his treat and joined the other kids. Emma was out with some friends and he knew Mikey didn't like him too much. He got to know Senju and Haru a little better.

"You're pretty Haru."

He admired his delicate lashes and soft head. (No flowing hair yet.)

Haru felt pleased as he felt the same about Izumi. His pure white hair against the tanned skin gave him an ethereal glow. He suddenly remembered why he was taking Izumi out back behind the dojo.

"There's a koi pond back here I want you to see!"

His eyes lit up.

"Really!"

Haru smiled back at him and pulled Izumi along. It was serene here. Bamboo stalks grew tall and thick forming a semi circle wall in front. Small round stones surrounded a medium sized pond where a hollowed bamboo stalk filled up with water and made a pleasant sound when it tipped over.

Izumi knelt down and peered in. He gasped when he saw the elegant and beautiful koi fish swimming around. Haru brought a bag of food and gave him some. They got comfortable and fed the fish, enjoying the moment.

Izumi heard footsteps and turned around to see Mikey breathing hard. He stood up to greet him but stopped when he saw his fists clenched and anger from him. Haru got up as well and frowned noticing the tension from Mikey.

"What's wrong Mikey? Are you upset about something?"

Mikey ignored Haru and looked right at Izumi. Haru stepped in front as if to protect him. Mikey's eyes were dull and blank. At last he spoke but it scared Izumi. He'd never heard such venom and hate come out of his mouth.

"So it was you who broke my toy plane Izumi?! I SAID no one can touch IT!"

"What toy plane Mikey? I didn't touch anything!"

Mikey ran towards him and Haru ready to attack. His hand outstretched to grab Izumi when Haru stepped in front of him to confront Mikey. Izumi screamed when he saw blood from them. Mikey pushed Haru to the ground and clawed at him before standing up and looking at Izumi.

Haru bent over covering his mouth as more blood flowed down his arms and he made weird gurgling sounds. He tried to run and get help.

Izumi fell on his butt as Mikey loomed over him with blood stained hands. He sat on top and started to squeeze his neck. His nails leaving indent and long bruises. He gasped and his eyes watered. The constricted airway made his head start to hurt as his brain needed more oxygen.

Mikey removed one of his hands, keeping a continuous tight grip on his neck. He forced his free hand down Izumi's throat not registering the boy's strangled screaming or gag reflex causing him to choke and try to expel the object.

Haru was able to get up and run for help. He saw Baji and gasped out a few words. He understood and yelled for help then sprinted towards the koi pond. He saw Mikey on top of Izumi and feared the worst.

Baji had a running start and tackled Mikey. He wrapped his arms around him to restrain him from going after Izumi. Izuku has blood around his mouth as well and laid on the ground. Takeomi hadn't left yet and came to his rescue. Both forcing Mikey to calm down and stop resisting.

Takeomi instructed Baji to take Mikey back to the dojo. He carefully picked up Izumi who was unable to stop crying from the unbearable pain in his throat and mouth. Shinichiro called for ambulance and loaded Haruchiyo and Izuku.

Takeomi went with them in the ambulance. Shinichiro tried contacting Izana. He didn't answer. he heard yelling and saw Baji forcing Manjiro along with him. Time to get the whole story outta him.

Takeomi sat in the waiting room at the hospital. He couldn't get those images out of his head. Haruchiyo and Izumi's small bodies on the stretchers with blood coming out their mouths. He was finally allowed to see them. 

He slowly approached the two laying next to each other. Haruchiyo fared a little better. He was conscious at least and reached out for him. Two thick pieces of square gauze were taped to either side of his mouth and he had a clamp on his index finger to monitor his pulse or something.

He sat down next to him and held his right hand.

Haru was placed on the left bed closer to the door while Izumi was on the window and right side. He also had little patches and a clamp to monitor his vitals. There was something to open his mouth to help with breathing. 

His white hair was splayed all over the pillow and you could see his long thick eyelashes as his chest slowly rose up and back down. Hopefully Izana and Kakucho would be here soon.
