A/N: Tralalalala Why did I do this? Poor middleschooler Rin, all alone in Australia, beat up for his ‘Engrish’)

An interrogatively pale face, tainted with red spots and a begrudging halter appeared through the limpid maroon hair, like a dark curtain. this was so different than appeared. He moved, no words seeping from his usually extroverted mouth that forth came no editing.

“Is everything alright?” you dared asked. His face lifted from the weight of the curtain, ghastly in its demeanor. He nodded like a phantom, so quiet and cold.

Where was his power? Where was his words?

Once, he was a shark in the deep, so daunting and daring; bold was he in all practices. But now, he looked dead. More lifeless than ever.

Then you saw it. His furtive sheen of hair shielding a bold dent on his face, dried pools of scarlet decorating its edge.

It was soon he had encased himself in what seemed like titanium. Armor that no sword can pierce.

But one day, you would see something that he would never reveal to anyone else.

It was when he was alone, tracing the murky water in a little bowl of mud. Rain had just passed, clearing the field and leaving uneven bumps along the ground. He stood, dropping his stick, shocked to see you come closer.  The curtaining maroon hair parted again, leaving it visible.

What was that look on his face? Was it hurt? Pain? Fear? It seemed so soft and tender before it hardened. You never would’ve imagined  it until it appeared viable upon his face.

Silence filled the void before he took a fleeting step , running out of your line of view.

You wanted to follow. Only if you had the strength to.

A shark can’t stay hidden forever.
