Return
Akira waited patiently. It seemed like hours before The woman who had helped with the delivery left. Taking a deep breath he moved through the shadows, stopping right before Lottie. He couldn't bring himself to reveal his return though. So he merely stood there. He could leave right now. . . he should have but he found himself moving without a second thought and kneeling beside Charlotte.

Her change
Akira watched as her family swarmed around her, welcoming her back, telling her how much they missed her. Even Raige, her seemingly emotionless father was over joyed to have her back. Akira stood off to the side, hoping no one would notice him though he was too engrossed in his thoughts.
Something was wrong with Charlotte. . . she had used powers he had never seen before.
He could sense a change within her, one that he could not see if it were good or bad. She seemed fine now. Laughing and crying from joy. She no longer had her crazed expression.
He winced at the thought that occurred to him. The question that arose in his mind. . .what has father done to you Lottie?

The ten year old boy strained against the bonds that binded his hands and feet but to no success. His energy was gone, he was exhausted.
"You are a disappointment." His fathers voice resounded in the room.
Akira turned his heated gaze to his father.
"At least you show much hatred and anger little weakling." He let out a half laugh.
Akira growled at him. It was all he could do.
His father merely stared at him. "If you can unbind yourself before dinner you may eat. If not then you might want to hurry for breakfast for you will not have a single bite until you have released yourself. Good luck." He turned without a second glance and left.
Akira lay there for sometime. It always happened this way. He failed they took the vitals away from him. Either food or water.
His stomach growled as if reminding him to hurry else he would starve tonight. He tried and tried as he might he could not seem to succeed.
. . . . .
Dinner came and went as well as breakfast. It had taken him three days to finally tear the bonds apart.
