✔️Born Assassin

Lost Friend

I've been going home and leaving home without my foster family knowing until they go to check on me. Waking up really early to leave early and staying at school late so they're already having dinner or having relaxation time by the time I get home. While I've been at home, I've been locking my door and keeping my windows open. Today is Thursday and yesterday, Karma set up his own picnic, but at a cute park away from the city and more towards the water. We got front row seats to the fireworks this high-class people festival was having. There was no expense on the fireworks show. The worst part was that I ate so much that my stomach stuck out a little, but Karma had made it by hand with just spices and meat and rice, which ended up being amazing. The best part, was that I was becoming more like a normal student in 3-E. I was an assassin, but at least I was learning how to have emotions again. I nearly forgot about the tests and everything. At least in the last two days, Nagisa hadn't known a thing about us being twins. I was hoping that he had no clue, but I knew that he hadn't known to the point where he was thinking about it.

Karma woke me up this morning by showing up at my window. I made him go knock on the front door for scaring me. After he left, I changed into my uniform. As soon as I got my backpack all packed up, there was a knock on my bedroom door. It was Hitoshi.

"Karma's at the front door looking for you Kaiko! You better hurry, she's about to tell him about our trip to Paris!" He yelled, and I opened my door and ran down stairs right away.

"No telling embarrassing stories!" I screamed, but she already had the picture book. My face went pink. I couldn't believe she was showing him the pictures. There was an indoor beach at our hotel and Mother had bought me a bikini. I spent most of my time there. Every guy flirted with me, but it was mostly because the top was too small and my boobs hung out a lot. "Okay Mother, we have to get to school. Sorry Karma, no more pictures of Paris." I told them, then dragged Karma outside. When he got outside, his face was actually red. It wasn't just a blush, his entire face was burning up.

"Why don't you wear that more often?" he asked me.

"Shut up!" I screamed at him. "We're going to be late if we don't hurry up."

"Look, I was suppose to tell you last night but I got distracted by your pretty dress. Today, for the last little bit of summer vacation, Korosensei managed to rent out Seagaia Ocean Dome for the whole day. I figured you would want to get a breathing suit that wasn't super girly, so I came to tell you early and I got paid last night so I'm willing to buy you one. I have mine in my backpack." He told me, and I was surprised.

"You did that for me? That's really sweet, but I can just run home and get my school..." he cut me off.

"Why don't you get one that suits you instead? Price isn't a factor. Let's get going before all the good ones are sold." I smiled brighter then ever. "I'm kind of regretting it though. That one I saw you wear in Paris really suited you."

I punched his shoulder playfully. "Let's just get going." I laughed, and we headed towards the shopping district.

We went through dozens of stores before I found a perfect one. The clerk let me try it on, and I absolutely loved it. I changed back into my school clothes. By that time, school should be starting soon. Karma bought it and I ran us both to the school as fast as I could. Everyone was in normal clothes except for us. They all had their swim suits on but Karma and I were ready for a normal day of school.

"Nice of you two to show up. I'll check you off and we'll get going." He smiled, quickly changing into a Hawaiian shirt and shorts. I was surprised at how fast he got so much stuff from around the world. I never thought anything could go that fast. "Now, remember children, no killing or maiming in this place. Leave all your weapons behind. The only person who is allowed to have a weapon is Karasuma unless it's a water gun, but they will have stuff selling there too so if you have the money, you can buy whatever you want to."

I hadn't realized it, but there was someone at my desk. There was another desk set up on the other side of Karma. This boy had completely white hair like me. I had seen that face before, at the lab, though he was much younger. I sat down on the other side of Karma at my new desk. I knew this was Itona Horibe. I think he recognized me too, because he stood up to get a better look at me. He was standing behind me when Korosensei spoke up.

"Itona, is there a problem? Kaiko looks very uncomfortable with you standing so close." Korosensei told him, but I couldn't take it anymore. I stood up too, looking him in the eyes. He had grown a lot since I last saw him. He was a few inches taller then me now.

"Woah." was all I could say. I was so shocked at how much he had grown. His hair grew out and his eyes were a lot bigger. The I remembered, he had seen me like this before but with my hair all ragged from a knife cutting it instead of scissors. The last time he had seen me, my hair was down past my butt. His head tilted as he looked down at me.

"I know you, don't I?" He asked, and I was surprised he remembered. "You're name sounds familiar."

"Hidori." I said, and his insane eyes widened. All I saw was crazy and a little bit of respect. I couldn't say anything else though. I was too scared.

"Hidori? It's been a long time. So, how long have you been here?" he asked me, like nothing had happened. His smile was the same as when we were seven and soddenly I saw that terrified, skinny little boy instead of this very muscular, tough young man.

"Since Monday."

"Oh, I got here before summer but I haven't really shown up. School is boring, don't you think?" he asked, his smile plastered on his face. It was like when I made him laugh when we were younger.

"You've certainly grown and got... muscular." I told him, looking at the tank top he was wearing.

"I haven't stopped training. It looks like you haven't either. I came here to get some info on my brother."

"Your brother?"

"Oh, sorry, our brother. We are made from the same lab work, but we didn't fail like him. We're successes."

"He's not our brother Itona. We aren't siblings either. You are my friend though and that's why I'm telling you this. You still trust me, don't you?" I asked him, hope in my eyes.

"Of course, but he's still my brother even if he's not your brother."

Korosensei joined in. "I don't mean to interrupt you reunion, but we have to get to the train station. You can catch up at the beach. I want to get a little more sun in the fun before we start training very, very hard." He said, and we nodded. Everyone took their weapons out of their stuff. Korosensei checked every bag to make sure. He took all the weapons and moved them somewhere we couldn't get them while going out of the school. After he did all the checks, and our other teachers got in, we all headed for the train station.
