Hey guys it's me again and I know I'm writing another story why are you reading a story and you're not even finished with the first two as I said before this one was a dream of mine so I'll be done with it pretty quickly don't like it I'll probably make a second series so without further ado let's go down in the story.

Cold, their bodies, they're cold .

Red , red is all that I can see.

My parents they dead, and I killed them.
It took control again like it always does I can never control it it's too strong, strong enough to devour my soul and I can do nothing about it but just watch as it is always the people that I love the ones I hold dear even the people that I hate the ones that I envy , the ones that hate me.
Looking outside the window I thought ' they'll be here soon'. I went into my bedroom cleaned up packed my things and waited outside. I knew this would happen, they knew it would happen and so they were ready they were prepared to take me and I would go without a fight without protest.

Waiting on the side of the porch three black humanoid figures appeared.

I have to say there's in the Fox mask said with a very deep voice" we told them this would happen well I guess there's nothing we can do about it now. " he said turning to the boy.

Another replied this one had a tangu mask it answered with a feminine voice" I don't see the point of bringing him with us why don't we just kill the little brat already?" it said folding its arms.

The third one answered this one voice was of an elderly man" I'm afraid we cannot do that, we promised his parents if it ever came to this that we would bring him with us back to the motherland, we cannot break Swinehart promised you know that. Even if he was not born of our blood." do men finished looking down at the boy who had no expression whatsoever on his face.
he picked up the 5 year old boy and asked him" Tell me child , what is your name?"

The boy did not look up at him but he did reply"Ryu".

The old man lift up his fingers then made a symbol across the boy's forehead and said" Is that so, well then, from this day forth I bind you to the motherland and to yourself and the bank only be broken but something as strong as itself ."

the feminine voice gave a little laugh then said in an almost mocking tone" you seriously believe that a binding spell will be able to block that things from coming out, he's not even of Arlene blood. His mother was a...."
Before he could finish his sentence he was cut off by the one in the Fox mask.

" that's enough Zarei , the fact is that his father was one of us thus that makes him our brother" he lowered his voice in a warning tone" no matter what his mother was, and if you cause any harm to him I'll make sure to deal with you myself."
Before the two of them began to fight the only one raised his hand and said" that's enough you two, we should hurry things up before the police arrived. Unless you want the secret of the motherland to be found."

They eyed each other then said in unison" yes sir"

When the police arrived , the house was in flames at this rate there will be anything left. The four of them made it back to the motherland as they call it through a decent amount of thick trees and vines that made a trail only to the ones of the motherland .
They then made their way to one of the tall towers inside of them magical looking place. Waiting inside of the tower was rather old man with a very long beard. The elder man who had the child in his arms put him down in front of the even older man . He stroked his beard examining the child, looking the child up and down the child did not seem to mind at all he just kept his face expressionless. He then looked up to the three fingers and said" this child is indeed my youngest sons offspring. Tell me where there any others ?" the three figures kneel down and the one in the middle spoke"No my lord it was just him." The old man made a hmmm sound in thought." tell me child what is your true name ?" The elderly man said still stroking his beard.
The boy looked up at him and mouth the words"Umbra" the elderly man's eyes widened at this." I see so the rumors were true my son such a fool he was but I never knew it was to this extent." the old man said shaking his head as if in disappointment.

The figure in the tangu mask said" You'd think he'd know better than to......" before he could finish he was cut off by the fox masked man. " As if you have any place to talk you stupid bird!"
Suddenly they heard a slam and looked up towards the elderly man" that is enough arguing my son, this is the same reason why Jiro left the motherland." the old man looked back down at the child, then back up at his three sons "Soichiro"
The Fox masked figure looked up" yes my lord?"
"Since you are the closest to Jiro ,I put this child in your care, I'm sure Jiro would want the same." without hesitancy he said" yes my lord" but in his mind it was a whole other story.
Soichiro took the boy and brought him back to one of the tall towers which was he's home. Putting the boy down and sitting him on one of the two beds. the boy eyed him carefully and said" you cared for him a lot didn't you" Soichiro paused surprised by the boy suddenly speaking.

"What makes you think that?"

"Because ,when you came to get me I saw it'' Soichiro was now facing the little boy " you saw it? And tell me how exactly did you see it?" he said folding his arms.

"With my eyes, I'm sensitive to the emotions of other people, so not only did I see it I felt it." at this Soichiro raise an eyebrow." and what emotion exactly did you feel?" the boy looked up at him and he could swear he saw a darkness hidden in the child's eyes" worry, fear, heartbreak but when you saw my face I saw a hint of love." he said as though it was a fact which it was. So Ichiro was lost for words this child what exactly is he. though denied it he knew his brother was stupid, so much so that he even fell in love with a human and even more stupid not let the child be born in the motherland. But the child was right, he was worried he did feel fear and heartbreak , but most of all he felt love when he saw the child's face it looked just like Jiro's . Snapped out of his thought by the child speaking again.

" now you're feeling a hint of love, tell me did you by chance love my father?"

Why of course I love your father he was my brother after all , even if......'' before finishing the boy interrupted and said" that's not what I meant, I mean did you love my father and I don't mean in the brotherly love" the boys eyes darkened " and you know exactly what I'm talking about." Soichiro was lost for words could this boy really read the emotions of others? If that is so then he really is the Ombra , more importantly right now he was reading Soichiro's emotions, and if he remembered correctly if he lied about his true feelings he would die. What should he do ,should he just tell the boy the truth say what he kept on telling himself for so many years ? He didn't know.
