Blooming Hope

The flame demon

"W-what are you? S-some kind of demon or something?" The guy said in a shaking voice. Was it something i did? I looked at my hands. I did it again. I merly shook my head.
"Im not a demon... as far as i know. Please dont hurt me anymore." I said as i got up from the ground with my head down. "Im sorry if i hurt you. I didnt me-"
"Bull! Your a demon! A freak of a demon!" The guy said as he turned and started to run away from me and the scorched ground. I went and sat down by a fence by my bag. I just got out of school for the winter break. I grabbed my scarf and put it back around my neck. I just huddled there on the cold grass. That was until i heard a familier voice.
"Hey kiddo. Why the glum face?" I pointed to the scorched ground.
"I hurt another person. Accidentally. They ran off even after i said that i didnt mean to hurt them. Why would it be any of your concern old fart?" I said using my insult for my caretaker.
"You realy have to learn to controle your protective instincts. Lets head home. Your brother and everyone back at the orphanage is waiting for you to start dinner." Yes me and my brother live at an orphanage. Me and him have been in there since we were infints. So far, im the twin that has my ability. It sucks. And im also the twin that has never been invited to an adoption interview. I usualy spend my time in my room, in a corner with a book and music. Hey, my life is a merry go round, goes around in circles forever and never goes in a different pattern.
As soon as i walked into the dinning room, a little girl came over and hugged me. "Kami! Come sit by me! Come sit by me!" She cheared. Her name was margo. A sweet little thing she is. No older than 6. She pulled me to a chair beside her.
"Margo. Hate to disapoint you, but im not hungry this evening." Everyone dropped their jaws. I was the one that ate the most and every hour i would complain about being hungry. I may be skinny but i do have a large stomach. I need a lot to function properly. Anyway, i was released from margos grip and i made my way to my room. And to my surprise, i saw that kris, my twin brother and also the younger twin, was packing. He got... adopted...? "Kris, why are you packing?" I asked and he shoved a paper in my hand that had a coledge name on the front and the vuilding itself. "I got in it. If you actually fid the assignments from class you would be with me. The school said that i was too inteligent to be takeing their classes anymore and have had me going to this colledge. And not just any, the demon exicution acadame. And why arent you at the dinner table like always?"
"Not hungry today."
"What happened?"
"The flame thing. I did it again. Why am i the one with it and not you?"
"Not sure nee-san, not sure. Maybe its because im possibly more on our birth mothers side and your more on our birth fathers side?"
"Not possible. You of all people should know that. Now go eat your last meal here. You will need the energy for the walk you will have to make to that acadame."
"Actually, nominic has been kind enough to have someone get me tomarrow morning. Im gonna miss you, kami-nee. Get your grades up or get a job so you can either earn your way in or vuy your way in." Kris said in a joking matter. My aura then got evil. I got down from my bed and he took off running and i was chasing him. He ran straight to the dining area. "Nominic! Help me!" He yelled and of course the old fart grabbed meby the coller of my shirt as i was running by and kris sat down happily by margo, who was chanting that kris sat by her. She gets happy about anything and everything. Its kinda annoying.
"Please excuse me for a second." Nominic said as he got up. He pushed me to the kitchen. "Why were you chasing your brother?"
"Long story short, he practicly said that i had terrible grades and that i cant keep a job for more than a week. And he joked about it as well. Thats my reason."
"Looks like my old friend is gonna have a lot to teach you." He sighed. I gave him m most questioning look.
"While you were gone at that park getting into trouble, Miric, my old friend, said that he wanted to adopt you. I will go further into details later and wait. For chasing your brother, no more electronic time untill you leave." He held out a hand and i put my head down and put my mp3 player and ear buds in his hand and i went back to my room and sat in my corner with a book and read. I was about to find out who killed who when the old fart came in with something in his hands that was in a box. He passed it to me and when i opened the box, i found a thick book that had flames printed on the cover, and a necklace. "From miric. He said that he will be expecting me to have you at a meeting place that we decided on at noon. Get packen kiddo. You will be ablw to say your good byes tommarow before we leave. And he said that he will explain why flames form around you each time yo get beet up and what you are as well. Thats it for tonight. And get some sleep because i dont want to catch you reading in the morning when i come to wake you up." That was all he said before he left. So this miric person thinks that he wants to adopt me without an interview huh? This is gonna be a load of fun just to see him beg the old fart to take me back. I closed my book and got up to the top bunk and waited till kris came in to tell him.
"Ha! Thats hilarious! Nominic never aranges adoptions for you! He says that you are special to him. Why would he let you go to this mirics house hold just like that?"
"Apparently an old friend of the old wind bag."
"And im gonna be going to the acadame tonight instead of tomarrow. Can you help me take my boxes out to the entrance hall?"
"Sorry. Cant. Have yo go to sleep. Hope to run into you someday kris. Its been good havin you around." I soluted and hit my head on the roof since the bed im on is high up. I fell asleep while kris was taking his boxes out to the entrance hall. I wonder if my little twin brother will be in good hands.
