He was no longer expecting a familiar pair of golden eyes to greet him when he returned to his room. When Homura told him that Goku was happy and free somewhere in the lower world, Nataku had been more than pleased for him. He hadn't known what would become of Goku and his friends, but one of the worse outcomes would have been for the other boy to be forced into the role of war prince. He didn't want to think of Goku's bright fire being drowned in blood. There were worse outcomes than the reality.

And yet as the day wore on, even as he met new and adjusted to the strangeness of the institute, Nataku couldn't help but feel a little bit empty. It was to be expected, he supposed. That was the part of him that Goku had filled up.

Well, there was still time. Someday they'd find their way back to those places that Nataku held dear. It had been a promise. For now, he could only deal with what was in front of him.

...Too bad it happened to be the Nurse's big butt. That was probably not the best omen.

Someone was already there when the nurse let him inside. He'd expected the room to be empty, but he found himself peering curiously at another boy who looked about his age. He didn't seem to be getting along with his pie. "Hey. Looks like we're roommates."
