THE AWAKENING: BIO-GENETICS

In the heavy pouring rain, San walked the streets, all drenched, his uniform, his bag, his books.

"Now I have to get new book too" he said with sad eyes. The bullies also took his umbrella, 'Jerks!' he thought with clenched teeth.

He adjusts his school bag as he kept walking. He couldn't even see a thing, the rain was super heavy.

He looks for the fifth time.

"No cars seem to be coming, I guess I'm good" he said faintly as he moved off the pedestrian lane crossing, his looks sadden knowing his mom was gonna be pissed at him.

*Loud Horn*

He froze as his eyes went wide, he gasp in panic but it was already too late, the truck was near.

*Crash Sound*

***

*Loud Siren*

"Hey..."

"Hey"

"Hey!"

"Hey! Open your eyes Dammit".

San groaned, he slowly opened his dark yellow eyes, they met with black eyes.

"Black eyes" he groaned.

"Blue hair".

"Hey snap out of it dammit, you also died!" He hissed shooking his body but not harshly.

At his words, San weak eyes went wide.

"I'm I dead?!" He hissed seating up.

"No idiot, you're not" the boy said.

He froze at his words.

"But...but" he stammers as his eyes lands on the truck, it was crashed into a pole but not in a serious state, the driver inside, unconscious.

Loud siren came, signifying the ambulance was already here.

"I survived!" He said stunned, knowing he should be that pole right now.

The boy beside him rose to his feet, walking away.

"Hey wait!" San hissed, trying to get up but he couldn't, his leg was wounded and he was bleeding, the rain brushing the blood stain everywhere.

"Hey... just stay down, the ambulance is here, you're gonna be okay" the boy said not turning to him, looking at him they were the same age, but he knew the boy thought him to be 5 due to his stature, it wasn't the first time.

His eyes then drift to his hand, it was wounded covered in blood.

"You saved me... didn't you?" San said for certain  a his eyes trembled.

"Hmph" he made a sound proud.

"Don't get too excited, I was passing by" he said turning to him.

"You're too short, the truck wouldn't have seen you, you were in a pitiful state, so I saved you from dying a pitiful death" he said sarcastically.

San cheeks heated as his eyes circled in tears.

The boys eyes turned white.

"Hey! Don't cry!" He hissed.

"What are you expecting me to do, laugh? You just saved me from death and you make it sound as if it's nothing... its a big deal for crying out loud!" He hissed crying loudly.

"Okay okay okay, I get it, so stop crying please" he said rushing to his side once again, he didn't wanna be the reason the poor kid was crying in the rain.

"Your name?" He asked with a smile against his lips.

"Sama..." he sobs.

"Sama San".

"San, everything is gonna be okay, so don't cry" he said patting his head.

San pouts.

"I have to go".

"What? But your wound"

"It's nothing to worry about" he states rising to his feet turning to leave.

"Take care San!" He said waving his head.

"But... but... you didn't even tell me your name!"

One month Later 

Yamamura Junior School

'It's been one month now, I haven't seen the boy that saved me ever since' San thought, he was seated in class staring at the window, a hand against his jaw. 'My leg is all healed up now... but I wonder if he's okay' he thought with sad eyes he has been worried about him ever since, constantly dreaming about his saviour, he went back to the place the accident happened multiple times waiting and hoping he would get to see him again but he never did.

He sighs. 'I don't even know his name'

"Alright everyone settle now" their homeroom teacher said as she adjust her glasses.

The other kids did as they took their seats properly.

'I would never get the chance to see him again' he sighs.

"You have a new classmate, extend your welcome".

"What a new classmate?"

"It's already end of the year, why so sudden?"

"I wonder, its a first"

"Getting a classmate by this time of the year"

Whispers filled the classroom.

"Quiet down!" Their teacher hissed sighing.

"Come in Saionji-san" she adds.

The door opened, a boy walks in.

San turned as his eyes slowly widen, the spiky blue hair, the black eyes, the paled skin, he would recognise those attributes from anywhere because they belonged to his saviour.

He bowed his head.

"Saionji Mosu, nice to meet all of you" he said in a bored tone.

Even the cocky tone, it was him alright!

"You!" San hissed elated rising to his feet, all attention drift to him.

Mosu eyes lands on him, he froze as he sweat drop behind his head, he recognised him instantly but he was 5 wasn't he? What was he doing here.

"Hey... aren't you suppose to be in kindergarten or something" Mosu said with twitching eyebrow.

The whole class burst into laughter.

"He gets that alot"

"He's really small, dude"

"The smallest in our class"

San blushed as he sat back down, but his smile didn't seize because he was happy he got to see his saviour again, and more they attend the same school now, and the same class.

Ever since that day, wherever Mosu goes, San followed.

Mosu always came to his rescue whenever he was bullied, resulting to both of them getting beaten up, but later on they both overpowered the bullies, making them popular in school.

***

"Here" Mosu said handling San a soda, they were both seated on the rooftop of the school. San took it with a smile against his lips.

"I never got to ask, how come you transferred school at the end of the year?" San asked, he was always puzzled by that fact.

"Well my mom and dad got divorced, she took me along back here, we originally based in Fukuoka" he explained.

"Oh" San made a sound regretting why he asked.

"I'm sorry"

"Dummy don't be... I get to see my dad as much as I want, the two just aren't in agreeing terms, I would have chosen to go with my dad but, he doesn't earn much to take care of me so I had to go with my mom, she was backed up by her parents to gain custody of him, but with my dad nope" he states drinking his soda.

"Besides I get to see him as much as I want, spend weekend's over there, so it's cool"

"I see" San said with a smile against his lips.

"I'm happy that you're okay with it" he adds.

"Exactly" Mosu said as they cheered with their soda drink.
