User blog:Hakaishin Aro/Little Aro's first adventure

On the west coast of central Zipangu, a small young boy is ready for the greatest adventure in his life, a trip to the mainland wit his onee-chan Miyuki, a Kitsune-Tsuki.

"I'm going on an adventure with onee-chan!" the boy chanted loudly to himself, happily running trough the temple garden while the Miko serving there were trying to calm him down. It was a very loud and hectic morning for the poor shrine maidens.

The boys mother, an Inari, smiled softly looking at her son. Even if the boy wasn't her flesh and blood it didn't matter to her, for she loved him as he was her kit.

"Calm down Aro, we have to prepare the cart and, oh boy you need to take a bath," his mother jokingly held her nose, a big smile on her face. "Once you finished, I have something for you." she then said with yet another motherly smile on her face as Aro rushed to the temple hotsprings shedding his chlotes on the way.

His mother and sister laughed at the boys antics before they started to discuss about the 7 days trip the two will be taking in few hours.The conversationn went on untill the boy returned all clean and ready to see the big world that is waiting out there. The boys loving mother then gave him a small Gi consisting of a sky blue sleeveless shirt that is held in place with a belt made of white cloth, pants of the same color, dark blue training boots and dark blue wristbands which he immediately put on.

He started throwing punches and kicks into the air grinning happily "Wait until Megumi-chan and Yukiko-chan see this!" he was proud of his mothers gift and wanted to show it off to his friends. Aro then ran to Nozomi, his Inari mother and hugged her for all his worth "Thank you Kaa-sama, this is awesome!" he beamed at his mother, extatic about the new Gi.

Soon the cart was ready, it was a small two wheeler pulled by one person. Seven days from now It will be full with all the goods from the mainland, but now only held the essential for the siblings journey. The cart itself was modified with extentions on the handles so to make it possible for the little sealed deity to reach said handles to be able to pull it in the first place. That was the work of his father, Octavius Tacitus, a former Order Hero.

The siblings were ready to depart, but Nozomi knelt before Aro and said "Aro, a martial artist..." she started and the boy quickly continued

"...Fight to better himself, not to hurt others, He fights with honor, to protect those in need." He smiled as Nozomi patted his head.

"Good Aro, and remember to protect your sister." She winked as Miyuki smiled a bit knowing well what mother ment.

At that point a tall man with black hair came from inside the temple and wreaped his arm around the Inari. They both were watching their children going toward the temple gate.

"I am worried about them." The Inari sighed.

"Do not be, my love. You raised them bot well, their heart is in the right place." the man responded, planting a kiss on the side of her head.

 "You're right dear." she leaned onto the man as they wathced the two figures gaining distance.

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> The Kimura siblings took the path that leads from the temple down to the Murky Water village itself. Half way there a small Kappa and a Yuki-Onna rushed to them and tackled Aro in a big hug. The three were best friends as long as they can remember. Once they untangled themselves from eachother he immediately took a battle stance and assumed the most serious face he could muster to look the best in his new training outfit.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Ha, what do you think? Isn't it awesome? Kaa-sama made it for me." The sealed Hakaishin said with pride.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Cool!" the two young Mamono said with a little blush that Aro didn't even noticed. He did't saw them that way, but as they grew older the girls started to get more open with their emotions, to the point of forming a small rivalry between them.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">The trio walked in front of Miyuki who was pulling the cart as they passed troug the village. They were chatting excitedly about the usual kid stuff until the well known voice of a Youko was heared shouting at some kids from her window few houses away.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Aww man, It's Hikari-san again, she's always in a bad mood." Aro commented abouth the Youko lady.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"I heard she's cranky because she can't find a husband." Yukiko chuckled while Megumi noded several times in confirmation, both daydreaming about marrying the oblivious boy walking between them. Soon the Youko lady was forgotten as they passed by the dango stand owned by a local family.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Dango!!!" the three yelled in unison. Aro turned back giving his sister a pleading puppy dog look. The red and white furisode clad Kitsune-Tsuki smiled and nodded, earning a big smile and a loud 'Yes' from her little brother. The three kids immidiately surrounded the dango stand where the elderly owner handed them their treats. Miyuki approached the stand taking a dango for herself and payed the stand owner. The kids were already sitting by the sea watching the big ship in awe while nibbling on their sweets. Miyuki let them play for the time being as she supervised the cart being loaded aboard and finalizing the other arrangments. The travel with the ship is almost a day long, so a sleeping cabin was necessary, same with a meal in the morning. Todays meals would be bento boxes prepared for them by their mother, much better than the food aboard.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Soon the cart was loaded, and the ship was ready to take the voyage. The Kitsune-Tsuki called Aro "Hey otouto, It is time."

<p style="font-weight:normal;">The kids soon stood up and slowly started walking towards the ship, two of them sad that their mutual love interest is leaving, even if it is only for a week. "You be careful Aro." Megumi hugged him giving him a peck on the cheek startling him. Then Yukiko did the same adding

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"And take care of yourself and your sister." she smiled.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"W-what, you too, Yukiko-chan. What was that for, why did you two did that?" the boy asked confused, the two young Mamono merely giggled. The boys sister watched the scene with a miscievous smile making a mental note to tease her little brother about it.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">After they said their goodbyes and the two finally released Aro from the bear hug, Miyuki and him finally boarded the merchant vessel. The two Mamono kids run along the coastline, waving at them and shouting thier goodbyes, Aro doing the same earning few chuckles from the other passengers. They kept waving at each other untill the port, the village itself and the temple complex overlooking the village became specks on the horizon.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Don't worry little one, you'll see your girlfriends in a week, just be patient." Miyuki giggled seeing her brother blush and wave his hands in front of him.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"G-g-girlfriends?" He was shocked, "W-what are you talking about Miyuki nee-chan? Aro blushed, as he stuttered which was unusual for him, unless his big sister teased him like she's doing right now. "They are my friends, t-that's all!" he shouted defensively.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"My my," She grinned slily " You are being very defensive about it. You are telling me you didn't noticed how open and clingy they became lately?" she continued teasing him as his face was turning a deeper shade of red every second.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"I don't know what are you talking about." He retorted, mortified. Some murmurs of how cute the situation was from several Mamono ladies wasn's helpful, at all. "Besides I don't have time for this girly things, I have to train and become stronger." He said trying desperately to drop the subject.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Ok ok, but you'll see in a few years." She giggled "Don't say I didn't warn you." she then winked making him blush yet again.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"~Mou, ONEE-CHAN!" he crossed his arms over his chest.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">"Fine, I'll stop now..."

<p style="font-weight:normal;"> Few hours later the little sealed deity was bored out of his mind, counting seagulls was difficult since once away of the shore they became very few in numbers. Exploring the ship was over and done with several times by now, at least the sections opend to the passengers. Training martial arts on the ship or mindlessly runing around almost had him fall overboard several times making poor Miyuki gasp in horror each time. She finally had enough of the scares and decided to put a stop to her brothers shenanigans.

<p style="font-weight:normal;">Just as she was about to intervene, he slipped and went over the railing. Miyuki let out a bloodcurdling scream at the sight of her little brother falling into the sea. She fell on her knees as tears started to roll down her cheeks.
