A Disappointment

Tokyo, Japan,

Shibuya Ward,

Rin POV,

Rin was currently sitting on a table in the living room, her mother sat across from him with a worried look on her face. "Why do you look like you cried?" Mei asked worriedly, earlier Rin had arrived home holding a plastic bag, her face although clean clearly gave away that the little girl had cried. Mei was quite worried especially considering that Samuel was to be the one to bring the girl home and yet he was nowhere in sight.

Rin opened and closed her mouth several times as if trying to say something before she quieted down, shaking her head, "It's nothing..." She answered, her face now devoid of any emotion, it was a promise to her brother and....no, it was stupid of her to not report this incident to her mother. "Someone came for Sam- nii-sama, a fight broke out and he may have been injured. Though, he sent me off and chased after the assailant by himself." She spoke out quickly, taking a deep breath afterwards, not being used to talking this much to anyone.

"......" Mei silently nodded her head, clenching her fist. She had been assured that this was a safe neighbourhood! Nonetheless, setting her anger aside she picked up her phone and dialled her husband's number. Just as she was about to dial his number though, the door to the house was thrown open by a figure they both recognised.

"No need to panic." Samuel walked in, his shirt was ripped near the shoulders but that was about it. Some blood could be seen on his face and hands but that was about it, other than that he was completely injured. "See? Completely alright!" He gave Rin a thumbs up with a cheeky grin, even if his face was smeared with blood, it was apparent that he was quite vibrant rather than injured.

Rin's eyes widened in shock, "I saw an arm hanging limp... a bruised face..." She muttered out, not understanding how her brother was alright after the extent of damage delivered and the appearance of the surroundings. "You mean this?" Samuel asked with a smile as his right arm fell limp before he once more moved it around with, bending it to show that it wasn't broken at all.

He rubbed his cheeks slightly hard and the 'bruises' faded away, "They're just dried blood." He reaffirmed, still smiling as Rin's mouth, opened and closed in surprise and shock for the second time, "But the blood....."

"Not mine." Samuel replied almost instantly, it would be folly to think that a human could seriously injure him, the first time he was hit, the damage regenerated in seconds and so did the damage he received. As he had stated before, it wasn't really possible for him to lose if Rin wasn't there.

At least he managed to learn Capoeira this way... Getting pummeled by a Capoeira master provided ample time and opportunity to do so.

"Hmmm....hmmm...HMM! You idiot!" Mei smacked his shoulder lightly, it was obvious that he wasn't injured and with the mastery her son had over the Uechi Ryu, she was more worried about whoever had done the stupid act of attacking him.

"Hey, it's not my fault." Samuel shrugged averting his gaze, he would be happier if he was allowed to just live out his days peacefully.

"What do you do next time you get into a fight?"

"Call for help?"

Currently Samuel could be seen sitting on the ground in the seiza position, having washed up earlier further proving that he had in fact zero injuries, deadpanning at his mother who was standing over him with her arms folded under her chest. Mei narrowed her gaze making Samuel sweatdrop, "Not play around?" He asked with an awkward smile,.... either he lived under a rock or parents weren't supposed to tell their children to beat the shit out of people who attack them.

"Beat the shit out of them?"

"Fumu, beat the shit out of them!" Mei pumped her fist, placing her other hand on her waist, anyone that attacks someone should be prepared to be beaten into the ground! That was what her family had taught her, tradition and being preserved be damned. Rin didn't know but Mei definitely did, Samuel had practised martial arts since he was a child and exercised since it was possible for him to do so.

Someone outdoing him when it came to physical prowess? That was something impossible, the boy was unnatural so far as his body was concerned. He had only gotten a fever one time in his life and never again, only gotten the cough one time and never again.... Mei believed that there was definitely something special about her son even if the doctors refused to accept it.

"....What is wrong with you?" Rin voiced out from behind, considering her mother's attitude she figured out that her brother getting into fights was normal.... Why wouldn't it be? With their mother preaching violence as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"You're telling me." Samuel looked at her before both siblings nodded at each other in understanding, their mother was a special case. "Why do I feel like you two were insulting me?"

-x-X-x-

Samuel sat in his room with his head in his hands, "What the hell am I supposed to do about this....." He muttered out somewhat despairing, as same as the first life he had lived, his true nature was unsightly and disappointing. He had no explanation for it, it had been with him since he was born and had followed him everywhere ruining things for him a good few number of times.

Incredibly violent and sadistic, he liked it yet he didn't. The conflict that followed around ever since he first opened his eyes.

Nonetheless, he was used to it by now. Samuel shook his head in slight disappointment looking at the night sky outside with a small self deprecating smile. It was a strange phenomenon, his body felt as if it was on fire each time it happened.

"Sammy, dinner's ready!"

"Coming!" Samuel shouted back putting a small relaxed smile on his face, he was too done with it to linger on it much longer. Just as he was about to move, intending to go downstairs, the atmosphere around him changed .....as if everything was frozen in place. His 'phone' started buzzing continuously before light enveloped his whole body and he disappeared.

Though, if one were to look outside his window, they would see that the world was frozen in place, as if time had stopped moving..... well not entirely, it was still moving albeit at a much much slower pace.

Samuel POV,

Currently in the middle of a lush green forest with floor covered in grass, a single silver haired teenager could be seen scratching the back of his head as he looked around..... "That's...... something." Samuel remarked looking around in curiosity, he was calm because this situation was acceptable.

Why?

The Group Chat was a thing.

"I would like it if I was asked or informed next time though." He remarked rubbing his chin in thought as he looked at the clear blue sky, it was kind of strange to be seeing a blue sky when it was night moments ago.

Samuel opted to pull out his phone, wanting to check what missions had been issued to him, clearly this was the Group Chat's work considering he didn't remember anything else that could transport him to the middle of a forest.

Before he could check much further though, he ended up tilting his head to the side out of instinct just as a spiked ball passed him by, a thick metal, presumably iron, chain connected to it. "Sheeeesh." Samuel looked at the person who had thrown it with a small smile on his face, although his eyes were slightly wide.

"What is your business here?" A monotone voice asked as the tree behind Samuel fell to the side prompting him to look behind or rather, slightly stumble to the side disbalanced.... "Hey... what if that hit me?" He asked, turning around with a small smile.
