Chapter 6 - Quality family time, and a new person.

He was almost six now, and the time for his mother to give birth was very soon.

"Aki, do you want to go get some ice cream?"

"Mhm."

His mother was offering ice cream very often lately. Likey a woman thing, I'm guessing.

It was late at night, when he heard someone pull into the driveway and enter the house. He got up from his bed and stealthily walked to the living room, where he saw...

His mom and dad. But there was a baby.

'Oh, yikes.'

His dad turned and saw him.

"Aki. Come here. Meet your little sister, Oko."

He walked over to them slowly, before getting close to his mother, which was holding the baby.

He reached his hand out and touched his sister's face gently.

His mother spoke up.

"She's going to take the crib you used to sleep in. Which means she'll be in your room. Go to bed, Aki. It's late."

"Okay..."

He then walked back to his room, climbed in bed and fell asleep.

The next day, he woke up to the smell of bacon and pancakes.

He climbed out of bed and sleepily walked over to his mom.

"When is it gonna be done...?"

"In a little bit, Aki. Why don't you go sit down next to your dad for a bit?"

"Okay."

He walked over to his dad, which was currently playing a racing game on the tv while holding Oko.

His dad noticed him and said:

"You wanna play? There's another controller over there. I'll teach you how to play."

He nodded and grabbed the controller, sitting down next to his dad as he taught him how to play.

A few minutes later, he was beating his dad in the game, holding first place.

"Aki, I'm catching up to you! I'm gonna beat you!"

He tried to preform some speed boost tricks but failed, resulting in his dad winning the game.

"Aw man..."

His dad just laughed.

"Haha, you did good."

He thought for a moment and decided to ask about something he'd been pondering on for a while now.

"Hey dad. What power do you have?"
