Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kiyoshi was on his way back from the range having spent his morning there working on his aim. It was always the most relaxing thing that a person could do, or at least that was what he believed. His family was a loud group but in looks and in the way that they acted. A group of artists, two of which were tattooists, the third of which was a teenage decorer girl. The only way to get a chance to relax was by leaving home so he could get himself some time on his own. He never really felt as though he belonged with them, he couldn't even draw a straight line, loved traditional Japanese dress, darker, muted colors. He didn't stand out like his rainbow of a sister or his tattoo covered parents.

He was going to look for a place of his own soon, a place where he could be able to relax and be himself. He shifted his bow where it rested on his left arm, the other hand touching his quiver to make sure that all of his long arrows were in place before continueing onward toward home tough he was moving at a slow pace. He was enjoying the quiet and warm weather, he was in no rush to get home.

The breeze was nice, it blew through his long hair drawing a soft sighing sound from him and he tilted his to life his face toward the warm sun and the breeze, eyes sinking closed for a moment. If it weren't for him enjoying the weather he'd of never noticed the fact that someone was hanging high up in the branches of a nearby tree. He only realized as his silver eyes slid open and he spotted the boy. He blinked a couple times before lifting one hand to rub it against his eyes and checked again as though he were expecting that it was just some sort of strange mirage but when he opened his eyes a second time the boy was still dangling there.

"Ah..." Kiyoshi stood in shock for a moment before he rushed forward, dropping his bow and quiver as he went, pausing only when he got to the base of the tree, "Hey! Are you alright up there?" He called up, the boy didn't look as though this were something he had meant to do, instead he almost appeared as though he were about to burst into tears at any moment. He looked from side to side as though he were trying to figure out where the boy's parents were at but couldn't spot anyone anywhere... not good, that meant he was going to have to help him on his own since he was lacking in a phone at the moment.

Kiyoshi felt so bad for the kid who was stuck up the tree, he seemed to be so terrified that he couldn't even speak. He looked around once more before he set to undoing his uniform, setting the heavy pieces of formal clothing aside, deciding instead to climb up to where the boy was in his light weight linen pants instead, "Just hold still! I don't want the branch your on to break!" He called up to the boy with the bronze hair.

The tree was given a quick once over before Kiyoshi jumped up to catch hold of a branch that looked sturdy enough to hold his weight and pulled himself up into the tree. This was one of those activities he'd learned to do on his own, his own family wouldn't be caught dead up a tree... well, maybe Fenrir if she thought something in the tree would add to her current outfit but neither of the other two. He made his way upward toward the boy who needed his help slowly but surely his, his bare feel able to feel whether the branches were stable enough for him to stand on.

"I am almost there, its going to be alright." He said, keeping his voice at a reassuring tone and normal level so as not to add to the fear the boy must already be feeling.

Kiyoshi's eyes went rather wide as he heard the groaning sound from that branch the boy was hanging on, "Oh... no." He murmured, trying to climb up that much faster but he realized as the thing started to snap and crunch that he wasn't going to be able to make it up to him...

"Hold on, its alright! Its gonna be alright!" He said, then he heard the final crack and the boy was falling... Kiyoshi didn't really even think twice about it as he reached out to catch hold of the boy. He wrapped his arms around him, hugging the boy to his chest as the two of them fell down through the low hanging branches and he gave a grunt as he hit the ground first, giving Dinnye something softer to land on, and he gave a slight gasp finding the wind hand been knocked out of his lungs.

"H-Hey... you alright?" He murmured, lifting up to pat it against the smaller boy's back, "Your not... hurt?"

Kiyoshi slowly sat up when the other boy moved away from him, dragging in slow, steadying breaths that were a bit painful to his lungs after having the air knocked from them in such a harsh manner. He stretched out, shifted, and rolled his shoulders to make sure that nothing was broken. He didn't think so, he was sore but not broken which was a bonus.

His attention then turned to the other boy who seemed to be trying to find something, "Hey, kid. You alright? What did you lose?" He asked, his voice seemed to slowly be regaining his strength as he got his breathing back at a normal pace again. He looked from side to side once what the boy might have dropped that would caused him to look around with such an intense sort of look in his eyes. He tilted his head to one side before sniffing at the air, it smelled like... melon?

Was he one of them? Of the Pocky boys? It might be, that or perhaps the boy was just wearing perfume he thought to himself.

Kiyoshi starred for a moment as the boy made the circle shapes with his hands, playing them over his face. His head tilted to the side in a thoughtful manner before he finally gave a little nod, "Oh! I see." He murmured, moving over slowly to stand up to make sure that he didn't step on the very item that he was looking for. Glasses, huh? He set to looking around, from side to side, scanning the grass under the tree the two of them had fallen out of, "We will find them, no worries."

As he looked around for the missing eye wear the milk Pocky boy rested his hands on his lower back, rubbing his hands against it. He was a little sore now and he was certain that he was going to be very stiff and sore come tomorrow but it was all well worth it in his mind since he'd been able to catch the other boy to keep him from getting hurt. The fact that the boy with the pretty colored hair was alright was all that really mattered.

Kiyoshi paused in his search for the missing glasses when he felt the smaller boy catch hold of his hand. He turned his attention him quickly, as though to make sure that he was alright, "You don't need to worry, we will find your glasses." He said in a reassuring manner. At first he'd figured that the boy was catching hold of his hand due to being afraid and wanting to have some reassurance from the one that could still see.

Instead he seemed rather embarrassed over having grabbed onto Kiyoshi which caused the older Pocky boy to figure it must have been an accident. He couldn't help but to give a smile as he reached over to ruffle Dinnye's bronze hair, "Its alright, you can hold my hand if you want. Might be best for the moment that you do since you can't see, I can better look out for you that way." In fact he was likely to pick him up and carry him soon if they remained unable to find what they were looking for. The boy seemed pretty well blind without his glasses and Kiyoshi worried he could seriously hurt himself it he were left blind and to his own devices.

There was an ominous crash of thunder overhead that had Kiyoshi jerking his head to look upward toward the gathering clouds and for a moment worry fill his eyes. He had to remind himself that it was warm out, that there was no way that it was a snow storm. Ever since he was younger he had a fear of snow storms and the idea of getting lost in one again.

He looked from side to side then spotted his things, "Wait right here." He said, hurrying to where he'd left his things. He grabbed up his bow, arrows, and clothing before returning to Dinnye's side. Without even a moment's hesitation he took the top of his traditional archer garb and wrapped it around his younger companion then did the same for his bow and arrow by wrapping it in the traditional hakama pants to protect them from the rain.

"Alright, now to find our way back to your place." He said, giving a bit of a sigh as the clouds opened up and started to drop rain onto them, "Do you have any idea what direction its in?" He was sure that asking a boy who was currently mostly blind as well as mute where he lived likely wouldn't net the best results but it was worth a try.
