Garden

Baku walks to the back where the garden is and looks to the fountain dully.
"Negative thoughts, these have been my thoughts since day one when my parents died"

Baku stares at the water his gaze fixed on the ripples of the water.

Baku sighs and looks to his pocket where he takes out the artifact.
"Hey, do you ever think I can get my life back?"

Baku sees the artifact glow and a voice is heard from deep within it.
"Heh and your asking this why?

Baku looks down sadly his white hair hides his tan face.
"Well, just cause I want to be normal"

Baku flinches hearing the voice within the artifact snap.
"BOY!?! That is so stupid!?! Your not normal to begin with!?! You have nothing a normal person has!?! Remember that!?! You have no family like a normal person has!?! No friends!?!"

Baku looks down his eyes closed.

Baku looks to the artifact.
"Well, I have no friends cause well you want me to shut them out"

Baku looks down to the water seeing his darker half.
"Yes, you shut them out so they won't hurt you! Remember that!?! I told you too cause you were afriad of getting hurt. Remember?"

Baku sorely nods and he sighs.

Baku stares at his darker half.
"I remember. But you know everyone will keep trying to be my friend."

Baku blinks to his reflection, his darker half was smirking.
"We will see how determind they are, besides they can't keep it up forever!"

Baku looks down to the artifact which he places it in his pocket.

Baku blinks and he sighs walking off.

Baku comes out and looks at the fountain before taking his item from his neck.
"I'm going to see if I can use its power to heal my wounds"

Normal shyly smiles. "In that case I'll help too!"

Dark scoffs taking his item out and handing it to Normal.

Normal happily smiles with both items and watches as they glow.

Baku watches his item glow until the areas where the broken bones are begin to glow.

Dark watches with his arms crossed while Normal prays for it to work.

Baku stands slowly looking to his leg and feeling his lower spine.
"It worked, sadly that could be our last time to heal wounds and such"

Normal hands Dark his item back. "Yeah or until it recharges which may take forever"

Dark scoffs looking to his item. "They recharge but slowly considering we are seperated now"

Baku smiles and feels his leg.
"My leg is now just bruised which I can live with! Thank you"

Normal shyly smiles. "Your welcome!"

Dark nods with a small smirk.

Baku feels his spine and winces then sweatdrops smiling while putting his item back on around his neck.
"Ouch, okay and my spine maybe bruised as well. Heh"

Normal smiles shyly and looks to Baku while putting on his item around his neck. "Yeah, I wonder how Zak and Blade are doing?"

Dark puts his item on and fixes his hair while grumbling. "They are fine, bet you anything they are...

Normal frowns sadly. "Don't say it..."

Dark shrugs with a restrained laughter. "Okay"

Baku frowns worriedly to Normal and he looks up thinking.

Baku snaps his fingers and smiles.
"Okay! I'm going to the shadow realm to gather some magical things? Maybe also help my item recharge!"

Normal looks confused. "Uh but why do that?"

Dark blinks with a eyebrow raised.

Baku happily smiles.
"I'm going to make a room for Zuzi! I mean if she sleeps with me wouldn't that just be tiring?"

Normal laughs and gently pats Baku's back. "Your silly! Zuzi loves you! It is only natural for you two to share a room!"

Dark rolls his eyes. "Why not make us a room?"

Baku thinks and Normal laughs shyly. "But that is only if you really want too!"

Baku blinks and walks off.

Normal happily follows while skipping.

Dark follows lightly annoyed by Normal's skipping.

:Zuzi walks into the garden, having found it by accident, and sits down near some flowers:
I hope they'll all be alright.. in time..
:She leans her head on her hands and closes her eyes:
i have to let them be, they all need each other now more than ever.. even Dark....

:She keeps her eyes closed, quietly preying for the boys& their grandfather:
Veillez-eux. Protégez l'âme de leur grand-père...
:keeps her head on her hands, feeling tired and guilty for that:

Normal walks out and smiles lightly to Zuzi. "H-Hi, uh Baku is calling his distant relatives"

Dark joins them and takes a seat at a random location looking away.

:Zuzi snaps open her eyes, startled by the arrival of the two, she looks over:
Oh.. Hey..
:She nods, at what Normal says about Baku calling his relatives, in understanding:
so.. how are you all holding up..?
:lifts her head off her hands, trying to make herself less tired:

Normal smiles shyly his eyes still a little red. "I'm fine, I feel bad for Baku and Dark most of all..."

Dark frowns lightly. "I'm fine, I'm still a little shocked that it happened so quickly. Now, Baku is talking to his relatives that aren't much his relatives....their more like his second family"

Normal nods shyly and looks down. "Y-Yeah, he is calling the some what family of his in egypt...but..."

Dark looks to Normal and looks back down.

:notices them looking down:
but.., What?

Normal looks up lightly. "They really do not connect with Baku much..."

Dark sighs lightly. "Yeah, they try to connect but can't seem to do so...like me and everyone here"

Normal laughs a little. "They don't even look like Baku....Heh"

:looks a bit scarred:
Like you, Dark?
:gulps slightly, feeling a little sick:
So.. when Baku calls them, are they going.. to come here..?

Normal shrugs lightly with a shy expression. "I'm not sure? Only a few like Baku over at Egypt"

Dark sighs lightly. "Abasi is a interesting character, he has red hair...which is pretty interesting enough eh? "

Normal lightly smiles. "But if they come it may only be Abasi"

Abasi? Is he.. nice..?
:she looks at them, and slowly gets to her feet:

Normal thinks for a second and sweatdrops. "I'm not sure, he's like a kid brother to Baku"

Dark raises his eyebrow and grows disturbed. "Well acts like a kid sister with a tom-boyish attitude is more like it?"

Normal sweatdrops more and lightly laughs. "Heh, well I think Dark put him in a pretty good description"

:arches her eyebrow:
He sounds like a very interesting person..
:smiles hesitently:

Normal sweatdrops lightly. "Heh, he's even very clingy to Baku for some strange reason"

Dark frowns annoyed yet still disturbed. "Its cause he wants to have Baku all to himself. Weird cousin if you ask me?"

Normal blinks disturbed to Dark and sighs. "I wish it was Baku's step sister who will come and not Abasi"

Doesn't that mean he loves Baku a lot?
:holds her hands together,her expression is shocked as she hears normal:
He has a step sister..?!
