Akira's body began to feel numb. The cold white snow sent shivers up his spine. He felt so cold baring that his blue coat was the only thing separating the snow from his naked chest. He then rolled onto his back with the energy he had left he felt weightless. Numb. He craved a sign of hope. The white snow imaged with his beautiful blonde hair, as he sat up he hugged his knees going into the fetal position trying to gain some warmth...some hope. Akira's beautiful long blonde bangs shifted revealing his white eye. He stared at the distance emotionless, His eyes gazed at the never ending whiteness. It was like the desert, but colder. Akira desperately tried to think but his mind was so drifty he couldn't. He clutched onto his legs tightly as his strength continued to weaken, and he became colder and colder. He urged himself to lift his body weigh, just enough so that he could stand. Akira grunted and clenched his fist lightly. "I fell so helpless" He finally managed to think.
Akira fluttered his eyes tensely commanding them to open, But it was no use. Akira closed his eyes, relaxed his body and drifted into sleep. Akira's pale skin made him blend into to the cold snow even more. His Faded Blond hair and long bangs made it look so beautiful, His bangs obviously haven't been cut in a long time. Who knows how long he had been alone, How long he had suffered.
Akira felt warm, very warm. Akira was tired, he didn't...he couldn't open his eyes. He heard Noise but it was blurred. "It sounds like clacking....no" The sound became more clear as Akira came to open his eyes very slowly. "G-Galloping?" Akira felt a warm hand brush his bangs onto his head. Akira finally managed to open his eyes to a hand...no a glove, A white glove on someone's hand. Akira's arm shook as he reached to his forehead and grabbed the person's wrist lightly. "W-Who are you?" Akira Quietly Muttered. Akira's eye wandered up to the stranger's silky long black hair, Akira's eye widened as it was caught by the sight of the stranger's beautiful gold eye. "My name's Vincent"
Akira released his light grip from Vicent's hand and let it sway down. He then Finally realized he was laying on a carriage seat. Akira shakily began to sit up gripping his knees with the strength he had left for support. Akira couldn't gather enough strength to sit up and before he plopped his back down, the stranger put his warm hand under his back guiding up to sit up as the stranger sat on his knees beside Akira. Akira panted and petted the soft knitted black blanket that laid on top of him. "Thank You" Akira managed to muttered. Then Akira Realized he wasn't wearing his blue coat anymore, instead he was wearing a black coat with a zipper. Akira thought it looked astonishing and it was far past anything he could afford. If he could afford anything anyway, but he did realize it was expensive because the beautiful comforting professional tailoring. Akira sitting up on the right side off the carriage looked to his left A boy with Very long black bangs and normal length in the back, sat there slouched crossing his arms in the corner of the carriage with his left leg crossed over his right one. Akira Figured this was a carriage with a high roof not only because he up at it, also because of the fact that Vincent was quite tall and judging from how tall he is just sitting on his knees he could probably stand up in it. Akira knew that these kind of carriages were also expensive, he then figured that they were most likely a quite wealthy family.
Vincent caught glimpse of Akira staring at Fang. Vincent Helped Akira sit forward and brushed off his shoulders, He then placed his hand on Akira's head Shuffling His Blond Hair. "That's My son Fang, If that's what you were wondering." Vincent Smiled and brushed Akira's long bangs back once more revealing his hidden face that always is hidden by his long blonde bangs .Akira Stared confused at Vincent as Vincent glared at both of his eyes. Akira then continued to stare at Fang and noticed how strong he looked. Akira wondered why Vincent helped him, He thought it was impossible for someone to be this nice despite being wealthy. "Um...Can I ask you something?"
Vincent asked nervously glaring down at the red carpet on the carriage beside the seat Akira was sitting on. Akira's eyes shifted towards him as Vincent pulled his hand away and held Akira's hand tensely. Akira's eye widened as he saw through that Vincent was franticly nervous. "U-Um sure"
Akira Replied. Vincent looked straight at Akira's face and used his right hand to place the right side of Akira's bangs behind his ear "Can I ask What....How your eye got this way?"
Akira Became confused And blinked. Vincent realized that Akira had no idea what he was Talking about and reached into his pocket. "W-What?...What's wrong with my left eye?"
Vincent finally gave up searching in his pocket and stood up and walked over to the corner Fang was relaxing in. Akira figured that fang was either sleeping or really creepy. Vincent Once again sat on his knees but in front of Fang. "Fang...Wake up" Vincent Whispered to him
Fang sat up and tucked a long strand of black hair behind his ear as he kept his eye closed.
Akira's eye locked on Fang's close Eye awaiting it to open. Akira watching as Fang opened his eye slowly glaring back at Akira. Akira felt his heart thump hard as his breath dropped staring at fang's red eye. "R-Red" Akira Muttered Quietly under his breath. Vincent pushed himself up and sat beside Fang "As you know this is Fang, He is 13 probably around the same age as you. How old are you Akira?" Akira's eyes widened as he swiftly clutched his head. Akira searched for answers but the only thing that answered was pain. Fang Stood up and Fastly came to Akira sat on floor of the carriage then grabbed and gripped his wrists. Akira forced his eyes closed. "Stop Trying To Think!!"
Fang loosened his gripped on Akira's wrists and placed his hand's on his shoulders. Akira Desperately tried to stop asking himself. Vincent Put his Hand on Fang's shoulder Gripping it tightly.
"What?!....Oh.." Fang slicked back a long strand of his black hair once more revealing his red eye.
Akira then locked eyes with Fang and immediately calmed. Akira Looked to the side and lightly blushed as he whispered "Thank...You" Fang grinned "No problem just try to find some control."
Vincent Giggled.
The carriage stopped.
