Reluctant letter home.

[GONE]

Yamaroshi walked into the owlery carrying a pen and several pieces of paper, which he prefered over a quill and parchment. He scratched the back of his neck and thought. Maybe he should have written the letter before he came to the owlery. He contimplated turning back and going into the common room, but he didn't want it to turn it into an excuse for not sending the letter, which was more than likely to happen. He decided to stay and write the letter there.

Before he could send the letter, Yamaroshi had to find one of the school's owl's since he didn't have his own. He looked around and found an owl that could do the job.

The boy looked around to find a place to write. He walked over to a table, put one of the pieces of paper he had brought and started to write.

Dear Mom and Dad,

Yamaroshi paused for a moment and thought, then continued writing.

First of all, I have a gi-

Yamaroshi crumpled up the paper angrily. That wouldn't do at all. He needed to think of a less blunt way to tell his parents what he needed to tell them.

He took out another piece of paper and started to write again.

Dear mom and dad...

[Nnhy]

"It's surprising, I think, of the amount of students who come up here, by themselves, whey they are upset, or lonesome," said a voice from the corner.

Nny sat on her window ledge and looked at Yamaroshi.

"Hello there, who are you?"

ooc: I must ask. What did the wheebirds ever do to you?

[Orca]

Orca padded down the hallway, aimlessly making his way to the owlery. Ryu chirped and fluttered down to his shoulder as soon as the wolf walked in. Stifling a yawn, the Lycan continued walking, still trying to remember why he had come there in the first place.

He stopped as a familiar scent crossed his senses.

"Yama-kun!" he yelped, bounding down to where the other boy stood, and seizing him in a brief hug.

"Whatcha doin' here?"

[GONE]

Yamaroshi was about to opened his mouth to speak but Orca showed up before he could speak. "I need to write send a letter home. The only problem being I haven't written it," he said.

"Anyways"

He continued to write his letter.

Dear mom and dad,

I need to tell you some things that-

He stopped writing and looked at Nny. "Oh, sorry," he said. "I'm Yama...roshi. Yamaroshi."

OOC:Wheebirds don't have to have done anything. They're just evil.

[Nnhy]

ooc: allrighty then, thanks.

bic: Nny grinned, "Well hello then Yama, and you're Orca, right? I think we met earlier. I'm quite sure I met Ryu. Sorry to interupt you letter Yama, but I was getting tired of talking to the birds. Especially Pastulio, what a whiner he is. Anyways, It's nice to meet you. I'm Jhenny, but feel free to call me 'Nny'. Hey, I rhymed! That fulfilled my life for the next two minutes."

[GONE]

Yamaroshi raised an eyebrow. This girl seemed rather strange to him. But that was enough distraction for now. He needed to write his letter.

He crumpled up his last piece of paper, not liking the way he had started the letter and started to write again.

Dear mom and dad,

I don't exactly like to write letters, but this was the best way I could contact you since there are no telephones in the wizarding world.

There are three things I need to tell you:

First of all, Kamaroshi is dead. I was bored and walked into the forbidden forest, which got him killed.

Yamaroshi picked up the letter, held it in both hands by the middle and started to tear it apart, but changed his mind before he ripped it up.

Secondly, I found a chamber somewhere in the school. I met a vampire there who told me I was an heir to the founder of the Slytherin house, which makes it impossible to have non-magic parents. Does that make me adopted?

Finally, I have made new friends.

Yamaroshi paused and bit his lip. He knew what his parents would say about his going into the forbidden forest. He also knew how they would answer his question about being adopted, but this time, he had no idea how they would react. He looked down at the table and paused.

[Bree]

Bree walked into the Owlery, with a smile on her face, then she saw Yama and walked over to him gave him a kiss on the cheek "Writing to the family hey?" Bree asked looking down at the letter and reading it, She bit her lip.

He had told her, he was going to tell his parents about them, But reading the paper it said nothing about them together. She sat next to yama and smiled at him, even though she was hurt inside, wasn't she suitable to take home to the Family.

[GONE]

Yamaroshi smiled when Bree entered the owlery. He was always happier to see her nowadays.

Not liking the way he had started his last sentence, he took out his shuriken, placed another piece of paper over the first then cut the bottom off and continued his letter on the new piece of paper.

When Bree entered the room, he decided he would just tell them, rather than hint it like he had planned to before.

The good news is, I have a girlfriend now. Her name is Bree. We've only gone out once so far, but I'm sure there'll be other times.

Anyways, I hope all is well up there.

~Your son,
Yamaroshi

Yamaroshi nodded his head, satisfied with his letter. "It's done," he said as he looked for something to tie the letter to the owl's leg.

[Bree]

Bree watched Yama and saw him write that he had a girlfriend, she knew he would have wanted to tell them in person but for now a letter would have to do.

Bree handed Yama a piece of cotten and smiled at him when their hands met.

[Orca]

The Lycan looked back and forth between Yamaroshi and Bree, and quite suddenly bright understanding glowed in his aqua eyes.

"Ohhhh! I get it! You's two are goin' out? Well, congrats and all that," he cheered, giving them both tight hugs, and barely dodging a peck from Yama's owl.

"How long has this been goin' on?" he asked.

[GONE]

Yamaroshi shrugged. "I dunno," he said idly. He held up his letter and read it over again. "You know what?" he asked rhetorically as he devided the letter into two pieces.

"I have a better Idea." he declared. The boy pulled out another piece of paper and started writing.

Mom and dad,

Just writing to say hi. I guess I'll see you around Christmas.

See you soon,
~Yamaroshi

Satisfied with his new letter, Yamaroshi looked back at the owl. "I don't like this owl," he said. "I'm gonna find another one."

He looked down at the piece of cotton Bree gave him. He didn't know why she'd given it to him, so he just put it away in his pocket.

Yamaroshi then stood up to look for a more suitable owl.
