Akashi had been separated from his family, since the war, he was but a boy, he had wondered all over, hiding in the shadows, as best as he could. He has forgotten everything, out of fear for his family. He knew that his stepmother was killed, he had watched selena, AKA Savannah, get killed during the war. As she was taken down, he was left alone to wander the world by himself. No means of money, no way to survive. He was cold and scared, but every night he would remember them and their memories. He would find what was left of his family, and he would become stronger. He had to, his father taught him to the ways of protecting himself and those of his family.

After seven days of hiding, and scraping, he decided to get out of his rut some way,with his father in hiding, and protecting their people, he would make his family proud, but becoming stronger, by becoming better than what he is now.

So his first lesson he remembered was to hunt, even though Akashi was immortal, he didn't need to show that off yet, before he gets too arrogant, he needed experience and skills to get pretty far and well known.

So he needed to get wood, and build a fire, after all it was in the middle of September, so nights will become colder, although he doesn't get cold, he still still have to play like he is human.

He got up and got some wood, looking around from kindling, to actual logs of wood. He didn't have any money so he had to start off small, with the strength that he had gained, when he was with his father training, he then set it down near the trees, and started it up, lighting a fire, as the flame build up, he then began to relax against his father's coat as a pillow. Remembering his father's teachings, he was glad he wasn't in the city just yet, he needed to get stronger first, then he will relax a little bit.

As he laid down, next to the fire, not really sleeping, he thought about all of his goals, beginning meditate, listening to his surroundings.

Then not realizing, it turned to daylight, as it turned to daylight, he could the sun coming up, and opened his eyes, seeing the fire was down to ambers, he then went to the nearby river, to freshen up abit.

As he found the river, he then splashed his face, waking himself up, and cleaning it a bit, he then stood up and went to do a days work out, for the start of his training. He started to make a bow, even though it wasn't as good as the one. His father had, this was better than nothing.

He then grabbed a few thin branches, carving a point, they were good for hunting and killing people, and he was in the mood for it, if they pissed him off.

Akashi being but a boy, he finished his weapon, and started to look for what he could hunt and get money, he needed you train, and do what his father needed him to do. He then started to walk looking for something to kill and eat. He then saw a dear, he took a deep breath, she shot off two, as one hit a rabbit, the other hit a dear.

He then ran to the spot they fell, as he picked the rabbit up and slung the dear over his shoulder, he went back to his spot and started to cut it up.

As he skinned it, he then gutted it and went to clean everything as he was finished, he went and got some wood, and started the fire up again.

As the days turned into nights, he started to get faster, stronger, his speed faster than lightning.

Seeing how strong he was, he would take his meat into the city, we he often went to the butcher selling his dear and rabbit meat for rich restaurants. As he came into town after almost six months he noticed it was extremely busier than normal, now that he thought about it, it would be considering a war just happened and families were burying their dead.

"Oh hello there boy..I see you are coming in with the good stuff as usual." The man of the shop said.

"Yeah..a huge amount of it lately..I figured since my stocks are huge, why not sell it?" He said, as the man handed him 10 wads of cash this time.

"Wow, you saved us a big trip, you are keeping me in business my friend..i hope we can keep this up and maybe we can make a contract for business?" The man said as Akashi shrugged.

"No problem..I just love the good meat to eat..anyway, I have to go and finish the rest of my errands, I will think about that proposal." He said, ad he started to leave and waved.

"Best of luck to you my boy." The man said.

Akashi left to check the city life, he wondered since he had more than enough cash, if he could find a place, a huge place, he was tired of living on the ground.

A few minutes later, Akashi found himself looking around deep in the city, he saw cars passing by, people screaming and hollering about whores and then men fighting in the streets trying to make a name for themselves, gang to gang, clan to clan, it was just like home, he laughed. Then not paying attention, bumped right into a boy, he had seen this boy before, even heard his name, booogie.

He had heard this kid was good with fighting and highly influential, he would try best to avoid this guy. Akashi wasn't on the right set for just yet, but fate seemed to take control.

"Hey, you okay?" The boy said.

"Uh..I'm sorry..I should have been paying attention..if you want money for me bumping into, I can't pay you right now..but after I get established, I can pay you back." He said, Akashi suddenly felt less bored and lonely, he wonders why that was.

"Haha..no worries, I like you, how about I give you a helping hand and show you around." The boy said, and Akashi blinked.

"Why do you want to help me?" He asked, as he looked around and he saw her was being stared at.

"Because I have been watching you for awhile, I like the startup you got going..plus I know everything there is to know about the cities." He said, as he noticed the boy playing with his hair.

"Oh..oh okay..I normally try not to interact with people, but I'm sure I will get further with you than I have in six months." He said, as he looked back at the boy.

"Mhm..plus I can help you blend in, considering your appearance isn't normal..by the way I'm boogie..what do I call you?" Booogie stated as he extended his hand out to shake.

"I'm Akashi..I'm wanting to reimburse my family as much as possible." He said, as he took booogies hand and shook it.

"Ah..you are that legends kid." He said as the not ruffles his hair.

"Huh..my father is a legend?" He asked.

"Yeah let's just say your father was a huge hero..he took down his own father, because of all the experiment bunkers..which there is still a lot of them..but not as much as when he first started..then when a major war of all the families broke out..it is said that he kept them alive as possible,...he was the only one to survive, forced to flee into the shadows to make sure history wasn't destroyed..they say he still lives on after all these years." Booogie said.

"Yeah we shall see..I miss him, but i won't forget all of his teachings, so I'm gonna keep getting stronger like my father and being him out and we will fight together and make the world a better place." Akashi said, he blinked realizing he was feeling a bit more open he sighed.

"Haha,come on, we need to find you a big place to live for that to happen." The boy said.

As he was pulled by the hand, he blinked, as they ran down the noisy streets, until they came to a huge piece of property.

As the came to a stop upon a huge property, there was a sign, with a name and an address, most likely the city bank, booogie cheered.

"You still got money right? The boy asked, Akashi nodded.

Suddenly he say booogie have an evil grin, as Akashi blinded, he had a calm blank expression on his face. Then as they made it to the bank, he looked at boogie he was pretty sure he was gonna get turned down.

"I don't think they will let two young boys buy a house.." Akashi said.

"You let me worry about that..I told I like you..and I take care of those I like..just watch me work." Booogie said, as he chuckled a bit.

As they walked into the bank, he watched Booogie do a jump onto the counter, as the man backed up and gasped.

"Booogie..what are you trying to do? Give this old man a heart attack." The man said, as Akashi leaned against the wall and watched.

"See that boy over there?" Booogie said, as he pointed right at Akashi, passing for a bit as the man nodded, "He wants to buy this property." He said handing him the address.

"Does that boy have money?" The man said.

"Well don't worry about it..can you do it or not?" Booogie asked.

"Yeah, we just need fifty thousand and its his." The man said, as Booogie signaled him over.

"Done..Akashi..give him fifty thousand and its yours." He said, as Akashi handed him a few wads of cash like he had it in candy bags.

"Damn kid..where do you get all of this money?" The man asked, but Akashi decided he didn't want to tell this man.

"Let's just say this boy had to do a few hunting jobs to survive." Booogie said, as the land deed was handed to them.

"Alright well, it's all been written down here is the receipt of purchase and the deed, have a good day and be safe." The man sad, as Booogie grabbed Akashi's hand and they ran with everything that was given to them.

"Now what?" Akashi asked, as they came to their land.

"Now we build a house and whatever you want." Booogie said, as he was pulled onto three grass.

As the days turned into weeks, Akashi and Booogie built a house that was like no other, it has Akashi's family backgrounds built into the house, along with a slight american style. As they built the house, they also built a guest house, along with a Chinese/ japanese style garden. It looked perfect, while they did the finishing touches, they finished, they had already established a weird friendship.

He finally stepped, and they were happy, Akashi went to his own room, finally in a bed as he heard Booogie hiring people for the house staff. He laid down on his own bed, leaving his own room door open, he closed his eyes and started to fall into a deep slumber.

Akashi has white hair, and weird eyes, he heard Booogie calling his name as he slightly opened his eyes, and he was standing at his door frame. akashi's eyes was bit too tired to focus, he could see Booogie's outline figure, walking towards his bed, and felt him sit on the edge. He felt Booogie touching his cheek, removing his white hair out his face.

"You don't need to worry man...I got you ..you can sleep now..your in a safe place..I will protect you from those that want to take you away from me..from the day i first met you..until now and forever..you are mine..and always will be." He whispered as Akashi started to fall into a deep slumber.

Finally without a care in the world, he could sleep, and later depend on his Booogie to help him find his family. For her could trust Booogie, for now at least, but he was sure the boy wouldn't bring him harm, and so a friendship was started, only to bring him hope and adventure as he wanted, and for that he could hang onto this hand that helped him remember warmth that he had almost forgotten, he would rely on this boy, and try to repay this boy, for now and ever will be belong to Booogie.
