Kurai

## Backstory

Kurai and Riku were twins, happy and cheerful twins. They always were together and hung out with each other a lot, they got along great. They always sat by this one certain tree, mostly everyday. One day a branch somehow fell between Kurai And riku, and the wind was blowing leaves everywhere. There was no way the branch would just fall like that, considering it wasn’t thin and it was very heavy. It also seemed like something was telling them to “go away.” Even when this happened, Kurai and Riku continued to go there. Everyday it seemed like something was getting worse, but they didn’t pay attention and kept going there. (👁👁; they really don’t see the signs..💀) One day the wind was strong, that Riku and Kurai couldn’t really walk normally through it. When they were about to leave…something happened. A voice said something to them. “**I warned you. You wouldn’t leave my home…Now…let me get rid of yours.”** . . . .Kurai and Riku woke up somewhere…somewhere strange. Somewhere that wasn’t the “real” world…somewhere….where time went by slowly and a day there was a year in the “real” world. Where exactly were they?... Well the twins didn’t know either.. Riku saw light and a peaceful world where nothing could hurt him.. Kurai on the other hand wasn’t there.. He himself didn’t know what he saw, All there was around him was darkness. Far away he saw a red glow..

Riku was happy where he was, Worried about his brother.. But Riku was safe, He was in a world with a small and simple cabin with everything he would possibly ever need.. Kurai was constantly hiding.. From everything, There was nothing around him that didn’t want to kill him.. Eventually he got used to his surroundings, Fighting for his own life each and every day. He never spent a day not looking for his brother.. Riku, He was still safe. He had assumed his brother was somewhere safe too, and that he was somewhere just barely out of reach.. Exactly 122 days went by for both of them, One day the same thing happened for both Riku and Kurai.. The second they woke up there was a purple glow only a few feet away from them both in their own worlds.. They instantly ran towards it hoping it’s help, Once both Riku and Kurai in their own worlds saw nothing, Pure darkness for a minute and then out of nowhere.. They were back! To the same tree.. Although it was no longer a tree, It was a cemetery now.. They had their reunion with each other, explaining what happened.. But Kurai was different now, Colder you might say.. They looked around and there were new things everywhere.. New people, New buildings.. Nothing was the same. Riku asked a nearby person what the date was.. “December 31st, 2022.. Why?” The person said.. Riku ran to Kurai and they had no idea what to do.. Everyone and everything they previously knew was gone.. Now what?

## Personality

Kurai is very antisocial towards most people. He only really likes his brother. He hates most things and has anger issues. He is really into sports because it calms him down and helps his anger. Kurai is constantly compared to his brother, And called “bad news” by many people. He doesn’t really care about it but it still does hurt.

## Abilities

When kurai was somewhere..somewhere different from other places, he stole an ability from a “monster” In that area. How?..that's not so known. No one knows whether he ate the monster, forced it to give it to him, or did something else. No one even knows why. The ability he stole was “manipulation.” They say something like…”mind control

## Extra

Kurai and his brother Riku mostly got along, though after that situation things were just a little different. For example, Kurai was somewhat colder, and the two sometimes got into fights. Though the two still cared for each other.

Riku never did know what Kurai went through.. Although he would always asked, Kurai never gave him a valid answer. Riku is considered, Full of words. He always has something to talk about and there’s never a full second with him.

Kurai on the other hand barely spoke, Only to Riku he would actually participate in a conversation. They both are basically polar opposites, But they were very close. Considering how they are each others only family.
