This is my first story.

I hope you like it.

She hugged her little brother tighter as her mother hit her back with a belt repeatedly until she can't feel anything from pain. This isn't the first time she had to protect one of her little brothers from her mother's anger. It's been two years since her mother, Nana, started abusing them but she always protected her little brothers. Ieyasu is 5 years old, he was born when she was 8 and Takumi is 2 years old, she was their older sister so she had to protect them with everything she had. It's not like she wasn't already used to be in pain. Everyone had bullied her in her school since she started elementary because she is clumsy and always trips on her on air. The only things she is good at is books smart and protecting her little brothers from their mother, she was starting to get better at housework since their mother has stopped doing it so in return she had to do took her mother another 15 minutes of beating until she got bored

"am leaving and not coming back today, this house better be clean before I come back" she said and then left the house.

Tsunayuki-hime started to stand up slowly making sure not to fall on Ieyasu; she had a high pain tolerance for a 13 years old child.

"Are you OK Ie-Kun?" she asked her little brother because he was crying.

"Ie-kun is fine, mama hurt nee-Chan -gain" he sobbed.

"I am fine Ie-Kun, your nee-Chan is strong come one let's go check on ta-Kun" she smiled at him while hiding the pain she was under.

She helped him stand and they went to Takumi's room to see if he was awake or not. While on the way she started to think of a solution because she can't let this continue, she was afraid that her mother may attack Takumi while Ieyasu and her were at the school.

Sighing she opened the door to find the Takumi was starting to wake up. She went up to his bed and sat beside him. He woke up and blinked at her then smiled a big smile and held his hands up to her waiting to be picked up. She smiled and him and then carried him in her arm.

"Ohayo ta-Kun, how about we get something to eat, come on Ie-Kun let's go to the kitchen," she told them already moving back to the door.

"Hai" they both replied at the same time.

She sometimes thought of them as twins since most of the time their reactions are the same. While making breakfast she started to think about what she would do today since she can't leave Takumi alone at the house.

It doesn't matter if I go or not even if I try to get a high score they just accuse me of cheating and I get detention and bad marks she thought sighing quietly

"Finish breakfast and go wash your hands so you won't be late for school Ie-kun," she said washing the dishes.

Ieyasu looked up at her then stood up gave her his plate and then ran to the bathroom shouting "Haai"

After finishing everything and dressing up Takumi, they left the house. She took Ieyasu to his school and then went shopping to get the things needed for the house.

"It seems its only you and me today ta-kun" she smiled and then laughed when he replied "ay".

Reaching home, she put Takumi down beside his toys and turned on the T.V for him and then when to put away the things that she got. After she finished she went and sat beside Takumi and started to study what she knew they took at school today even though she got low marks she didn't want to be behind the rest of her class. She finished everything then went and started doing dinner. Looking at the time, she stood up taking Takumi in her arms she left to get Ieyasu from his school.

Reaching the school, she started to look around for Ieyasu only to find him crying near the school gate.

Running up to him worried "what's wrong? Did something happen? Are you hurt?" she started to ask fast while trying to calm him.

Looking up at her "why doesn't mom come to take me from school?" he said

She hesitated "a-amm mom is busy Ie-kun, you promised me not to talk about what mom does at home to anyone right?"

He sniffed "I didn't talk"

Sighing she put on a smile for him "how about we go get ice cream before going home?"

"Really! Yay, I want chocolate" he said running out of the gate.

"Ah matte, you know you have to hold my hand when walking in the street," she yelled after him.

Stopping, he turned to her with a sheepish smile "gomenasai".

Shaking her head she smiles and took his hand happy that he smiled again and that he forgot what happened earlier. After getting ice cream and going home they had dinner and then she put them in their bed and read them a story until they slept. Hearing a voice down she tiptoed slowly down and looked at the door only to find her mom entering.

" huh, your still up, good" slapping her "from now on am going to stay with my boyfriend and am going to divorce your good for nothing father. If he wanted you then he will come and get you if not then you can rot in hell for all I care" she hit her a few more times before going to her room to pack her things.

"Hn" he looked at the paper in his hand. "I'll bite the herbivore to death for breaking the rule".
