Chapter 4:Someone Who Understands



October 3, 2003



I loved autumn. It was so colorful and peaceful outside. I was walking through town again. People just seemed to see through me. It's better than them looking at me like I was an alien. Then... he called.


"Shuillin!"I recognised that voice...Keiyosei. I knew he was with them. I didn't bother turning around. I pulled up my hood and ran. I pushed the crowd apart. I heard their footsteps...They were after me again. I turned to an alley and ditched my cloak. Inside, I wore clothes like I actually had a home. I walked out of the alley and they grabbed me.


"HELP!!! THEY'RE NOT MY PARENTS!!!"I cried and started struggling from them. People turned around and the fools left. An old woman helped me up and I thanked her. After everyone was busy with their own lives, I put on my cloak and took the fire escape to the roof of a building. Just as I expected, they were waiting for me.


"You almost got us there."Yusuke smirked.


"But we don't go down that way."Kuwabara said.


"Neither do I."I ran to the edge of the roof and jumped to the other. Hiei was fast, but not fast enough. He was falling behind an I was speeding up. Keiyosei was waiting for me at the next building. He grabbed me and we both went falling. I guess it's in my nature to help. I flipped him on top of me and took the fall. It didn't hurt that much, I guess I just got used to pain. I got up and kept running, leaving him in a very confused look.


He didn't deserve my trust. None of them did. They lied to me. They tried to imprison me. They think I'm a fragil little girl. Well they were wrong.


"SHUILLIN!!!"Keiyosei was there...but where were the others?


"LEAVE ME ALONE!"He pinned me to the wall.


"What is the matter with you?! Why are you running?!"


"YOU'RE A BUNCH OF BACKSTABBERS! ALL OF YOU! I THOUGHT YOU WERE MY FRIEND! FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I FELT WANTED! DO YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL NOW? BETRAYED, ABANDONED, USED, AND ANGRY! YOU THOUGHT THAT I WOULD BE EASY TO TAKE DOWN?!"By this time, the others had caught up."LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, I'M A PERSON! WHY ARE YOU TREATING ME LIKE A MONSTER?! ALL I WANTED IN LIFE WAS TO BE LOVED! I GAVE UP ON THAT WHEN I LEARNED THAT YOU WERE LYING! YOU'RE A FAKE! I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN, DO YOU HEAR ME?!"I was crying. I cried it all out...Tears of long lost happiness, tears of anger, sadness and fears.


"Shuillin, I understand how you feel..."Keiyosei was a fool.


"NO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! YOU DON'T UNERSTAND WHAT'S IT LIKE TO SLEEP ALONE AT NIGHT CRYING! TO HAVE TO LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER TO SEE IF THERE IS SOMETHING GOING TO ATTACK YOU! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT FEELS TO HAVE YOUR FRIENDS BETRAY YOU! TO BE THE ONLY ONE OF YOUR FAMILY LEFT BEHIND! TO WITNESS EVERY DEATH OF YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS! TO LOSE YOUR HOME, YOUR LOVE, YOUR LIFE, AND YOUR HEART! TO LOSE RESPECT AND FEELINGS! TO BE SHUNNED BY EVERYONE WHO MEETS YOU JUST BEACAUSE YOU'RE DIFFERENT...To believe and have those hopes and dreams shattered..."Keiyosei had let go of me. I heard footsteps...they walked away from me again. Someone wiped my tears off. When I looked up...Hiei was there.


"You shouldn't live in the past. I was like you years ago. My family abandoned me and left me to die. I found a people who treated me like one of their own, but they abandoned me after a period of time..."Hiei brought me up to my feet."You are still too young to be thinking of this. How old are you, nine?"


"Eleven..."


"You look too scrawny for an eleven year old. The others think I'm going to take you down. I'll give you another chance, but don't tell the others. When we meet again, things will be different."I nodded and he disappeared. Maybe...there is someone who understands...
