SHADOW

Episode 02: THE NEW KID

(As Saki and Takashi are still arguing a portal opens in front of them. A gust of wind starts to blow things away and Saki and Takashi are now focused at the portal wondering who will be coming out from it; Seth or Saito)

Saki: Takashi...? (Sweet drops down from the side of her face)

Takashi: Yea (tightens grip on his staff)

Seth: Yo!

Saki: (furious) Can't you just appear like everyone does...

Seth: (deadpan) Now is that a way to welcome your papa whom you haven't seen for awhile now huh?

Takashi: She almost wetted her pants cause she thought you were Saito (laughs)

Saki: I did not! (Embarrassed)

Seth: (looks at Takashi) From your swollen head I guess you were caught peeping again. I told you that's not a right way for a man to live

Takashi: (smirk) It was worth the pain

Seth: You saw her didn't you? (Excited) Tell me the size of her bosom

Takashi: (grins) If you want to know you got to see for yourself. The sight is too amazing to tell

Saki: (Bites her lips)

Seth: (Giggles) Okay!

Saki: Am right here papa!  (Strikes their heads)

Seth: (Yells in pain) Ou!!

Takashi: You're gonna kill me before my time, child (his head swells bigger)

Saki: Tsk! By the way papa. You didn't fight him again?

Seth: I did. Why?

Takashi: Cause whenever you two have a fight you don't look too good

Seth: What do you mean I don't look too good? I have never lost to him well except for the part where we had the... (Shakes his head) that's not important...

Saki: What I meant to say was this is the first fight you've had with him without coming home injured and bloody

Seth: (giggles) Oh that... Sora patched me up

Takashi: (looks at him)

Saki: Who's Sora?

Takashi: Come with me

Seth: Will tell you later (follows Takashi into his house leaving Saki outside)

Takashi: Do you mean her son

Seth: Yup. Found him in a cave. Apparently he lives there

Takashi: But how? He was supposed to be dead. I mean the news we heard said he died alongside his mother. What about her? Is she also alive?

Seth: My elder sister didn't make it (Old memories come flashing back in his head)

*****************************************

.Sakura: Seth meet your nephew (carrying a baby in her arms)

Seth: Aww she is cute (pokes his face)

Sakura: (laughs) It's a he Seth not a she and stop poking him like that

Seth: Eh!

Tsume: Perverted fool she said nephew (Takes the baby from her)

Seth: Elder sis, does that mean you two will now be staying here....?

Sakura: (sad look) Am taking him back with me to the city. We will live there

Takashi: Why!?

Sakura: Cause of Saito....

Seth: But I can....

Takashi: (taps Seth on the Shoulder) Have you found a name for him??

Sakura: Uh... I was thinking of naming him Sora

Seth: Sora eh?. It's a fine name

Tsume: He has your eyes

Sakura: (blush) T-Thank you

*****************************************

Takashi: Let me guess you plan on bringing him here. Don't you?

Seth: Yeah! He needs to be with his family. After all that's what she would want. And Renders don't sleep in a cave like animals

Takashi: Does he know you are his uncle?

Seth: No (yawns)

Takashi: And how do you intend to tell him that?

Seth: I will think of how when am standing in front of him.

Takashi: Bring him to me when you return

Seth: (He disappears into the shadows)

Takashi: (speaks to himself) He is probably going to throw him in here

*****************************************

(The following day Seth appears behind the cave he met Sora. He circles round the cave and stands at the entrance)

Sora: I knew you will come back (sits inside the cave)

Seth: Are you planning another sneak attack. Friendly reminder it didn't work when I was injured and still not gonna work now

Sora: (Comes out holding two identical pictures) This fell out from your pocket the last time you were here. My mom had one exactly like this. You know her, don't you? (hands him one of the pictures) She used to show it to me

Seth: I and your mom are siblings. She's my elder sister

Sora: That makes you my uncle then (shows no emotion)

Seth:.....

Sora: So why are you here again?

Seth: I have come to take you home. By the way Sora is the name your mother gave you. How old were you when she passed?

Sora: Ten years old

Seth: Then how come you forgot your name?

Sora: I know my mom's name, her face and how she died. Anything other than that is blank

Seth: Anyways I have come to take you home. Time for you to meet your family

Sora: I see

Seth: We live in the...

Sora: Im The Shadow Realm I know, I read it in her journal

Seth: (Opens a portal) After you then

Sora: I can trust you right?

Seth: Dammit kid (kicks him into the portal and walks in with two hands in his pocket)

(The portal opens inside the realm and Sora flies out landing on the floor face first eating the realm's dirt)

Seth: Welcome to the realm kid
