"On Mentsiquar, only the government has more money than my parents." Anjin explained. "So, what's your story?"

I blinked in confusion. "Story?"

"How did you meet my older brother? Stuff like that."

"Oh." Unbidden, a blush rose to my cheeks again. Damn! Why do I keep blushing?!
"I ran into him." I grinned at Kai. "Then HE ran off like the idiot he is. He then found me at the library, and-"
My words faltered as i stared at the four siblings. "Are you all...like Kai?"

"What do you mean?" Yuna asked, cocking her head.

"Do you all come from Men..Mensit...Mensiq...where he's from? And..have his AI thing? And...generally do things not on Earth, okay?"
I resisted the temptation to bury my head in the floor. I couldn't even pronounce his home planet!

"If you mean Mentsiquar, then yes. We ARE his siblings after all... As for AI's, we all have them." Anjin stated simply.

Mentsiquar! That's it! "Ah." I attempted to sound calm, but didn't succeed. I was getting excited about this whole adventure - hello? They're from another PLANET!
Just as that thought struck me, another took its place. However, it was as far away from exciting as possibly can be.
"shit!" The word slipped from my lips. I shot an apolegetic look towards Kai for my bad language. "I need to head home; my foster parents will be raging by now."

"Do you want me to walk you home? I've heard New York is dangerous after dark..."

Warmth blossomed in my chest at his protectiveness. "Thanks, but I know karate. I'm more dangerous than anything in the dark."
Winking, I hitched my bag over my shoulder and left with a wave, ignoring my instinct to pull Kai into a hug.

I sighed and sat down on the couch, flipping on the television. It was some Earth sport, consisting of a group of guys running and tackling at each other, all for possession of a strange-shaped ball. I watched the game for a while, when a sudden, horrible, tangible fear consumed me.
"FUCK!" I yelled, and raced out of the room. I knew who's fear it was, Nahrin's. He was in trouble...

"Get off!" I snarled as hard as I could.
The drunk holding my arm giggled then grunted in pain as I elbowed him in the stomach before spinning and sending him flying backwards with my foot. The four others groaned and cheered in mixed truimph as the leader of the gang stepped forward; showing in his stealthy movements how sober he was.
"Look, boy. We only want your bag. Just give. And I'll stop my boys having some fun with you."
I grimaced. This shit only happens in movies and sappy fiction books, dammit!
His fingers suddenly pitched towards my face, making me jerk back before launching my own attack. I managed to momentarily blind him by scratching across his eyes; however I'd forgotten about the others. One sucker punched me in the gut and laughed while the other two held my arms like some bad gangster movie.
The leader gave his eyes one final wipe before stalking over to me, seizing my face in one hand and making my tongue poke out.
"I'm going to cut your fucking tongue off." He spat. "See how you like being handicapped!"
It was at this point I felt sudden, searing fear; panic that made me struggle and whimper as he whipped out a pen knife.
Help. Anyone. Please.

I felt the fear grow greater, and knew that something was about to happen. That's when I heard it, a loud, girlish scream from an ally. I raced into the ally, and punched the man standing in front of my mate, knocking him unconscious. I then picked up his knife and faced Nahrin's attackers.
"Let him go." I growled.

As the knife started sawing away at the muscle I let out a terrified, high pitched scream.
HELP!
Without warning a shadow knocked the leader in the face and sent him sprawling on the dirty ground; unmoving. The men moved away from me, fear in their eyes as they glared at the knife weilding person in front of me.
"Let him go." He growled.
Releif pumped through my system at that sinister growl. "Kai." I breathed.
The vices on my arms released, allowing me to stagger sideways away from the men. I repeatedly spat blood onto the ground - euch! It tastes horrible! And only halfway listened to the threats and growls that erupted behind me. Eventually the mens' voices faded, and I was left alone with Kai; still spitting out blood from my bleeding tongue.

I raced over to Nahrin, and saw blood all over his lips.
"Nahrin, are you okay?!" I was worried, what had they done to him?
