Sakura sighed as he climbed out of bed at six in the morning. His body ached from the weekend that had just passed. He despised being at home for two reasons, one his brother and two, his mother. His father had died long ago from an illness leaving Sakura to defend himself from his abusive mother and disturbed brother. He was only ten when his father died and now he was almost eighteen.

“Once my birthday hits...I’m gone.” He muttered as he took a brush to his navy blue hair. He purred happily as the soft brush went over his cat ears before he began to groom his tail.

“Sakura! Are you up yet?” His mother yelled from the kitchen.

“Yes Mother!” He called back.

After grooming himself he dressed and went out into the kitchen. His mother just looked at him before she handed him some lunch money for school. His ears fell a bit in submission. He was a neko and his mother despised him. Why? Because he looked like his father, yet younger and more feminine.

“I’m going now.” He waited a second before leaving when his mother gave no reply.

The sun was no where to be seen that morning when Sakura reached his high school giving his emerald eyes a dark look to them. School was his refuge and he loved it besides the teasing he sometimes got on how girlie he looked. They where right though...he was shorter then all the boys and was even shorter than some of the girls and under the clothes he wore his body was thin and feminine. He blamed it on being a neko, even though all the other neko’s where also bigger than him.

“Why me.” He sighed as he walked up to his best friends Atsuro and Mizumi.

Atsuro was a big guy. He had long dark purple hair and silver blue eyes. He was half wolf and had ears and a tail while Mizumi looked like a normal human she was really and angel. Her long golden hair fell to her waist and her sky blue eyes where always sparkling. Mizumi smiled when she saw Sakura and poked Atsuro pointing towards their friend.

“Hey! Sakura!” Atsuro boomed as he grabbed Sakura and hugged him tightly. “How was your weekend?”

“Atsuro, you’re going to break him.” Mizumi pouted glaring at the larger boy who was her boyfriend.

“Oh...sorry.” he said sheepishly.

When Sakura’s feet where on the ground once again he grabbed his tail and held it.

Mizumi giggled at his habit and hugged him. “Are you alright Kura-kun?”

“I’m fine.” He smiled. “This weekend went better than usual. Mom was gone at work and Shouji was off at some party.”

“That’s good to hear. So nothing happened?” Atsuro continued.

Sakura shook his head. “Nope, nothing happened.”

“Where are you going to go once you can leave?” Mizumi poked Sakura playfully.

“Um....I’m not sure. I was thinking I could stay with you Atsuro...until I find a place of my own.”

“No problem! You are always welcome at my place.”

The bell sounded signaling they had five minutes to get to class. Mizumi said goodbye as Atsuro and Sakura made their way to their first class of the day which they shared.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Outside the school gates a shadow stood under a large tree. The man watched the students as they went into the school building, but he wasn't just watching all, he was watching one specific neko. His light purple eyes softened when he saw Sakura holding his tail. He had been watching him for some time now. He could remember his old friend Itachi talk about the boy. Itachi loved his son and often told his best friend to help him if ever he died. It had taken him a long time to find the neko after his mother moved from their original home nearly eight years ago, but now he had found Sakura and he was never going to let anyone hurt him again.

“You’re pain is almost over Sakura Usagi.” He said softly, his words carried away on the wind.
