Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well look on the bright side....at least she did tried to stay up to watch it all but then again she stayed up the most of it and saw the evolutin of the new Cuties began to start."
He says softly as he picked her up carefully and headed upstairs to put her back in her bed to sleep more properly, knowing she was up to date with what is happening in the media now. It didnt take too long till he had got into some bed clothes and slid into bed as well knowing the children were being taken cared of back with Demitri since he wanted to keep them for a little while since the news and developers wanted to see them for a little while since the change in tunes had became popular over an hour time from the concert since the sales for the songs became increased for more, which ment albums were starting to develop on the way.
Though they were starting to become popular Demitri knew that they were still children and the wee hours of the night would be too much so he had them well resting at his penthouse and would pamper them for a bit till coming back home from a night of hard work.

For a soft toy like a little piggy made of cotten she did have a good arm to swing as Raiku aruptly sat up and alert as he looked around to see nothing was around and it wasnt an attack or anything, unless in a way you wanna underestimate a little one giggling at daddy's reaction. Raiku looked down to see theblanket had covered her and took it off only to spook her too with a loud boo noise and she laughed even harder at that. Senente knew he had got lucky that most of Yuki's toys were soft so she didnt get hurt but on the fact too that the outcome of being hit in his sleep was made easier than her taking a block to his head and being knocked out.
Realizing it was a little joke of being awake for the day he picked up his attempted assaliant and headed out of the room for the morning, only to hear that Senente was awake herself watching some television on the concert last night, since it was everywhere from the gossip shows, to news, to even talk shows popular in the city areas of Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, and Nagasaki, pretty much it was all over the place and was spreading to other countries fast for one night.

That was the one thing she needed after the long she had for the first time in her career of being in the Cyber Cutie media group, and most likely would be a little time before things like that could happen again since she was still small and needed the time to grow and have an actual childhood than a mini celebrity on the red carpet. Senente knew it and made sure the children were not pushed to the limits and when she came home it was tend to the voice or else having to deal with the possibility of it being hurt even more, and the tea was what hit the spot the most with the right blend of herbals. Once the tea was finished Everest didnt say much of a word and went to her room to rest from the lack of it from the party last night while the rest of the family started to get around their own time jusy to have her get the rest needed.

He came inside with the basket that was even bigger than he was, overfilled with a mass amount of plants coming in different vials since some were pretty potinent. Senente helped him with the basket onto the table to take the contents out as Hiroshi climbed up into a chair.
"Mother thought you could have a few new plants to try she just brought from the Shadowlands, LugLug root since its a favorite in the house here, Ginkabon for burns and blisters, Fuble root for healing bones and fractures, Dried worm salt for skin irritations, Beekleek for headaches and pain reliever, the list is on the bottem for the rest but she wanted to make sure you were stocked up."
Senente nodded for the herbs but something was a little bit off coming from Hiroshi since his face was dirty and kimono had the beginnings of holes and was scruffed, she didnt want to say anything in case things were getting tough or busy that Haruka couldnt even find time to fix it but before she asked Hiroshi was already placing his shoes back on, one with the strap close to snapping point and covered in dirt. He started to walk out the door but it only took a few steps out till the string snapped tripping Hiroshi hard on the ground, but he didnt have the time to cry over getting hurt ditching his sandal running off.

It didnt take too long for Senente to make up a basket she liked to call a 'survival basket', packing everything from clean white rice, some fish for protein, pickled veggies and fruits, along with a few pokeberries and other thing she would think they would reconize as food from butter and potatoes and such. Right after the cloth it was placed in Raiku's hadn and off he went into inland and the dreaded swamps he hate so much since the smell was hard to tolerate at times, he even wondered how the Mokenamis were able to bare traveling through the thick water to get to the dojo, but that was their own thing and left at that. Once Raiku got to the dojo he automaticly saw Hiroshi working in what was left of the rice paddies damaged from the quake and collecting the discolored rice that remained on the stalks, not really much nutrition there but he called it food but Raiku's heart almost started to tear from the sight and confronted him.
"I saw you run off and my wife knew somthing was wrong, I could tell from a few yards something wasnt right since your kimono is slipping off your shoulders."
Hiroshi looked back up startled but he knew he was found out pretty close and fast as he tried to pull his obi tightly possible to keep the top from falling but he was stumbling.
"I've lost track how long mother was gone but this time its an important reason and not to become a geisha or work but to bring happiness finally back home."
Raiku was a little confused on what he ment as he placed the basket down but listened to get it out of the boy.
"She had hid it from me for a long time but she had a good reason to raise money and work hard to leave me here on Earth....she's bring my little brother home. At first I didnt think it was the truth but the look on her face said it, he was born about five years ago making him six now so I was seven when she left to give birth back home, problem was shadow beings need passports to go freely from the realm but mother barely had enough to get me and her out, so my brother was left in an orphanage and with the years the rate of releasing him doubled making it hard to make the money to bring him back....now she can and will be back in the fall."

He had a little bit of a problem figuring out the wordings but something like this had to be said since if it was a shock for him it would be for her, since the fact that she had known Hiroshi and Haruka for some time now and the reason to lie or hide things shouldnt be so hard, but it was in a few things like this.
"I know it will seem hard to stay in but I figures that I found out why this poor boy is always alone all the time, I wanted to think it was because Haruka knew he was close to age to fend on his own to work but it was all for a huge reason. Haruka was only working as a geisha to raise the money needed to get a passport for leaving the realm and even I know they're not the cheapest around, Sen.....Hiroshi has a sibling back in the Shadowlands and had just found this out not too long ago and since then had to fend for himself until his mother comes back in fall.....along with his long lost sibling."
Senente wasnt sure how to put it in words but putting two and two together on the clues it made some sense for the constant leaving and abandonment, but it was the fact that Haruka had kept it from Hiroshi and everyone else all this time and finding it out was odd in a way, true he could be on his own from time to time but sooner or later money would run out and so would the food sources around his dojo wouldnt be much to feed his body's energy needs. He was at the point his muscle was breaking down into weak tissue that even walking was starting to become a challenge as he moved on the couch to find a comfortable position. Senente came back with a blanket for him to burrow in to feel more secure as well as giving him a plate of food he smelled fast and didnt take much time to quickly but respectly finish the plate to ease the hole his belly had but with her cooking it was filling. That was what made Senente happy as Hiroshi started to get a little more comfortable and cleaner then when he first arrived, but hearing news like that was still a shocker.

"I have no clue his name or anything having to do with him, only the fact I now have the oppertunity to take the lead as an older brother and take care of the little guy. I know you and Mrs.Hatchi say that even at my age its still harsh to leave me be, but back home I wouldve been considered a man when I was 8 and I'm 10 close to 11 just like Everest and Nasagah are. Then again things are different here than back home."
Hiroshi really didnt have a clue on the identity of his sibling but knew that he was glad someone was going to help his mother find work even if it was washing clothes at the laundrymat or as a delivery woman or something close to what her basics could get her through since working was the only thing she knew and learned. Senente let him be afterwards to rest his meal while searching about on the laptop on places Haruka could go and work, finding a place here and there where she could be discreet and hidden to being by the counter it all depend, the bright side was she had a list of small mom and pop shops that would take a person, especially when it was a crisis. She had some time for now since it would take Haruka some time to return, as Senente looked about she could only lagh seeing a pair of ears twitch in the blanket as he slept, thoughhe was a ghost hybrid and the ears were fake they gave him some comfort after seeing Yuki twitch hers when she was happy or curious.
