Hell to Earth

-Robin-

I love my new friend. Heï¿½s just so cute! I get a kick out of pressing Taroï¿½s buttons. I canï¿½t help it; his reaction to me is so adorable. I always try to track him down and play with him. He doesnï¿½t seem to enjoy my games, but that doesnï¿½t stop me. Itï¿½s just nice to have somebody to mess with. I donï¿½t do it to be mean. Itï¿½s just how I bond with people I happen to like. Taro isnï¿½t the first that I enjoy winding up, however. I happened to run into my first by chance.

Today started out as another game before my past caught up to me. Of all people, I didnï¿½t expect him to find me again. I thought that he wouldï¿½ve cut me off just like the others did. When he called my name, everything around me stopped. I turned around, tilting my head. I know this man standing before us. Heï¿½s my age and wears glasses just like me.

ï¿½Matty?ï¿½ I asked. ï¿½Matty?ï¿½ I slowly walked forward. He narrowed his eyes at me.

ï¿½Robin?ï¿½ he asked. My jaw dropped once I realized who it was.

ï¿½Matty!ï¿½ I exclaimed. Matty rolled his eyes.

ï¿½Donï¿½t call me that,ï¿½ he hissed. I rushed forward to hug him, but he pushed me away. I looked up at him, pouting.

ï¿½Matty?ï¿½ I whimpered. He groaned and shook his head.

ï¿½You are too old to be acting like this!ï¿½ Matty shouted. I lowered my head.

ï¿½Iï¿½m sorry,ï¿½ I murmured.

ï¿½Where have you been?ï¿½ Matty asked.

ï¿½Excuse me,ï¿½ another voice spoke up. We turned and saw little Taro staring at us. I gave him a bold, little smile. He started back away as I walked up towards him. I leaned down so that our faces came within inches of each other.

ï¿½Taro-kun,ï¿½ I said in a low, child-like voice. ï¿½This is my brother, Matty.ï¿½
