The Yin-Yang Wanderer

”Whats taking them so long? ” T asked as he also peaked his head around the corner to see.

B put up his hands to shield himself from the rain and ran quickly through it, reaching the masked kid and the old man while they stared at each other.

”Are you okay? Lets go inside, you look hurt! ” he asked concerned about the kid who was wobbling, barely able to stand on his own feet.

Bs voice finally snaps mister back into reality as he shakes his head and gets rid of the bad thoughts he was having. His head turns to B standing in the rain in front of him.

”WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? GET BACK INSIDE! ” He picks up the mysterious kid as B Flinches from the volume of his voice.

”WELL IF YOU WERENT TAKING YOUR SWEET TIME LOOKING LIKE YOU WANTED TO EAT THE CHILD, THEN I WOUDNT HAVE COME OUT!!! ”

B then runs away, meeting T who was going to follow them. T was using his sling to cover his head and thinking what the hell… as B sprinted by him, yelling his lungs out. He looks over at Mister who picked up the masked person and was now jogging towards the house.

Its not everyday somebody triggers a flashback to my war days, especially a kid. Mister had a nervous look on his face. I guess I still can be around people…

”YOU! I just told B to get inside! You think your special or something!? ”

He sprinted by T holding the masked child who was passed out in one hand and the umbrella in the other.

”YOU LITERALLY SPRINTED OUT HERE FIRST! ” T complained as he followed the old man back into the house.

They laid down the masked kid and the kids scrambled to get clean clothing to wrap up the wounds and Mister boiled some hot water on the stove. K stood over the child holding the baby Tigx who was now awaking form its nap.

”YAWN~ ”

After it stretched out its limbs, it pounced on the sleeping kids stomach and crurled up into a ball right there.

”Sooo cute! ” K whispered, screamed as she watched the creature go back to sleep.

”Okay move out of the way now. ” mister walked up, sat on the floor and started to clean the wounds on the boy as the kids watched.

Well hes definitely a boy….and probably 6 or 7 at the most…. Mister wrapped up the kids wrist where their was a deep scar. what the hell is a 6 year old doing out in this rain alone? and more importantly…

He thought back to the hostile feelings he felt when he first made contact with the boy.

Am I going crazy? why… for a moment…why did it feel like this skinny kid was some a demon waiting to attack me?

”HEY!!! ”

Suddenly S yelled at T as he smirked.

”I TOLD YOU NOT TO TOUCH ME! ”

S then jumped on T as T tried to defend with his none broken arm.

”T touched him with his wet arm sling. ” B explained as the trio watched the two wrestle on the floor. ”We all know S has a phobia of getting wet. ”

Mister sighed and got up with the bucket of water and rag to go and put them away. As he turned his head, from the corner of eye he was able to see K reaching for somthing.

Is she going for the mask?

Mister felt a shiver go down his spine as he sensed menacing aura from the masked childs body. The kid on the bed reached out his hand going for K and before he knew it…

The sound of loud clanging rang through the small house as Mister had dropped the pot of water. He abruptly grabbed Ks shirt on the back, snatching her away. His face was huffing and breathless, looking like he ran a marathon. He scanned the masked kid again but there was nothing out of the ordinary. He was just sleeping there with his pet on his stomach and arm dangling of the side of the couch.

There it was again! The same feeling!

”Mister put me down! whats gotten into you!? ” K complained as she sat in his arms.

”Yeah youve been acting weird the whole day! ” B chimed in.

”Ah. ” Mister put K down as she crossed her arms. ”Im acting weird? You
e the ones who are trying to invade into peoples privacy! ” he bent down to clean the mess he had made with the water. ”AND YOU TWO! IF YOU DONT STOP RIGHT NOW YOULL BE MATCHING WITH THAT ARM SLING! ”

Standing back up, Mister looked outside to see the rain clearing up.

”The rains over as well! get out of my house!!! ”

”NOOOOOOO! ”

They all screamed and a commotion started once again.

”Its only like 5 oclock! ”

”Todays our day off! Let us stay however long! ”

Amongst the chaos nobody seemed to notice the figure sitting up on the coach while holding the white baby Tigx.

”AHHHHHHHH!!! ” K screamed as she turned around and saw the kid. He was wearing all black, helping him to blend in with the shadows. The mask on his face made him seem even the more ominous.

”A-Are you okay? ” The kid worriedly stood up and rushed to K as she had fallen on the floor. He bent on one knee to help her.

”I apologize! It wasn my intention to frighten you! ” He helped her up as the other kids watched in awe. S on the other hand wasn so amused.

”She can help herself okay!? Shes a strong independent woman! ” He exclaimed.

”Im sure she is! Her arms are bigger than mine! ” the masked kid exclaimed as raised up two thumbs and pointed them at K.

Everybody chuckled as S turned his head to the other side with a huff. Stay off my future wife!

Mister stayed quiet and observed everything. I know Im not going crazy! He thought.

”I guess you
e all wondering who I am. ” The masked kid chuckled. ”My name is Assad and im a wanderer from slum 1. ”
