I wanna heal, I wanna feel
what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long
Erase all the pain til it's gone!
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've felt so long
Erase all the pain til it's gone!
I wanna heal, I wanna feel
Like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
Somewhere I belong

APPEARANCE.[/size][/color]
Khai, being as young as he is, stands at four feet and three inches tall, and weighs about seventy pounds. He's of mixed race, being three quarters Egyptian and one quarter American, which is made the most obvious by his medium brown skin color. He's quite scrawny, with little muscle to him, and isn't very strong at all, even for his age.
Khai has large, slate blue eyes, and inherits his father's platinum blonde hair. His hair is fairly long, going just past his shoulders, and he just wears it loose. His hair length is one particular thing he is very stubborn about keeping, and is one of the few things he'll withstand numerous insults for. Being a child he obviously has no tattoos, and though he has had his ears pierced in the past, wears no jewellery.
His clothing choices tend to fluctuate very frequently, rolling with whatever is currently popular, and hitting the trash bin once people start poking fun at him for wearing it. Though he likes jeans and sleeveless shirts, he could be found wearing just about any kind of clothes that are considered popular among his peers.
In the digital world, his outfit changes to egyptian themed garb. He wears a white short sleeved linen tunic, which goes down to his knees, as well as pants of the same fabric. He wears a thick gold colored belt around his waist, as well as a pair of brown sandals. He also wears a pair of gold earrings and bracers around his forearms and neck.
PERSONALITY.[/size][/color]
Khai is a very troubled young boy, more so than what most would expect of a ten year old. With parents who pay next to no attention to him, classmates who bully him and ostracize him, and friends who tend to ditch him quickly, his social skills have suffered, and he's developed many flaws which only serve to compound his already numerous problems.
Friendship is very important to Khai. He wants people to have fun with, to keep him company, people he can care about. Unfortunately he has extreme difficulty making friends, and even worser luck keeping the few friends he does make. If they aren't turned off by his personality, often friends just abandon him due to pressure from other children who bully him.
Khai can also be very hateful, particularly towards anyone who's ever wronged him. This mainly is directed at those who bully him, and those former friends who abandoned him for one reason or another. His parents can occasionally be subject to this hate as well, but since they usually give him anything he wants when asked, his hatred for them comes and goes.
Khai has no trust in anyone. His parents are never there for him, his classmates bully him, and what few friends he ever manages to make, abandon him. It's made him cold hearted, and he no longer believes anyone will ever truly be his friend. He still longs for friends though, and to that end he's turned to more corrupt methods of gaining 'friendship'.
Those who bully him, do so mainly due to his race. Because he's different from them. He's picked up on this, and his attempts to counter this he's developed a materialistic obsession which drives him to obtain what clothes, toys and other things that his peers have, as well as anything else they might find cool so he can show off to them.
Having been mistreated by both his parents and peers, and knowing little friendship most of his life, Khai has had little chance to learn how to treat friends well. As such, he has grown to be increasingly selfish, and has difficulty thinking of others or doing anything for others that would go against what he wants for himself, even when he really wants to.
Khai is very clingy, and isn't shy about close contact with those he considers his friends. He's also quite curious, often to the point of being down right nosy, and often sticks his nose in other people's business. A lot of the time it's just to learn what others are up to, or to find out what new stuff people have or want so he can put it on his list of things to get. Sometimes though he just finds what people are talking about interesting and he does enjoy hearing stories.
Even though Khai is often selfish and mistrustful, there is a caring person deep down inside. He wants to be able to trust others and be a real friend. Conflicting with his selfishness that often overwhelms his ability to consider others, this aspect of him doesn't appear too frequently. If something slips out, he'll typically either cover it up or pretend it never happened, not wanting people to take it as a reason to push him around.
Despite the fact that he often does hurt people with the way he treats them, he doesn't like it. He easily gets upset when his friends suffer anything. Yet, his selfishness and desire to have his own way, often prevails in these situations, and he'll often invent excuses, to justify his hurtful actions and ease his own aching conscience.
Khai is easily intimidated, it takes very little effort to frighten him to the point of crying. He'll often avoid coming in contact with people who look intimidating, and if he ends up facing a frightening person, he'll usually hide behind the nearest object, or a less frightening person, which ever is closer to him.
Khai is amazingly frugal, and has never had problems saving the money he gets. Even when his parents refuse to give him larger amounts of money for more expensive things, he's good at saving what money his parents are willing to give him to make those bigger purchases. Khai also has some artistic talent as well, having found drawing and painting a fun way to entertain himself and also express emotions that he isn't comfortable talking about.
HISTORY.[/size][/color]
hometown; Denver, Colorado
family members;
[Father] Jahi Saa
[Mother] Sharifa Sekani
It cannot be said that Khai was born to a loving family. His mother never personally desired a child, only having Khai to fulfill her husband's wishes. She gave her son only what was needed to keep him healthy and out of her way. Khai's father only wanted him for the purpose of making him the heir to his weapons and robotics business empire, and though he had paid more attention to him than his mother, he was cold and strict with him, treating him more as a business investment than a son.
As the intended heir to everything his father owned, Khai was privately tutored from the very young age of 3. He was forced into his studies, but he was always distracted. He could see the children running around down the streets outside their home, but wasn't allowed to play with them. The only other children he ever came into contact with, were children of other businessmen that worked for his father. They were all older than him, and just as cold. They weren't the children he wanted to play with.
Khai was five when his family moved to Odaiba after his father found opportunities to take his business to Japan. Their new home was a penthouse on the top floor of a highrise , while smaller than their estate in Colorado, it still held the luxurious feel that came with expensive homes. It was a nice place to live, mind you didn't have a fear of heights. The one thing he disliked about this particular home was that he no longer had a clear view of the sidewalk, and couldn't even watch the other kids having fun like he wanted to do.
Khai's private tutoring continued in Japan, which included lessons in speaking Japanese. He achieved decent grades, but his father expected far more from someone who was to inherit his businesses after he died. Khai's continued failure to live up to his father's expectations after five years of tutoring, resulted in his father giving up on any possibility that his son could be his heir. It was when Khai was eight that he ceased hiring private tutors for his son and instead just shoved him off to Odaiba Elementary.
Khai wasn't too too unhappy. Yes, he lost his father's favor, but he was never a loving parent to begin with. In exchange, he got to go to a public school with other children. To him, putting away his father's strict curriculum and going to an easier going school system where he could finally be with other kids and make friends was the best trade off ever.
Of course, even what we think is going to be something great, can turn out not to be as great as one first imagines. Khai got to meet other children yes, but it became increasingly apparent that many of the children didn't like him. They gave him strange looks, many tried to avoid him. Others went out of their way to bully him. They called him names, beat him up, and in general were quite cruel to him.
Obviously, this was very upsetting to Khai. It felt like he was so close to being able to play games and have fun like the kids he had watched from his bedroom window. It wasn't so easy, but he refused to quit. He had been lonely for too long, and he wouldn't give up so easily. He just had to fix what they saw was wrong with him right? They picked on him because he was different, so he just had to do his best to be the same as them.
Of course, he couldn't change his race, and he was too young to dye his hair to even look somewhat like his classmates, but he could still copy other kid's clothes, and his parents would buy him anything within even only slight reason just so they wouldn't have to deal with him longer than necessary. So from here Khai spiraled into his materialistic and kopy-cat tendencies in order to impress his classmates.
At first, it sort of worked. Kids realized his family was rich and Khai had a lot of cool stuff, and lined up to be his friend. Nothing ever lasted though. Especially stuff like this. Even if the whole rich kid appeal didn't wear off as quickly as they found out his parents wouldn't fund them for all the cool stuff they wanted from him, his selfish attitude among numerous other unappealing aspects of his personality repelled many potential friends.
As the years went on, it only became harder and harder for him to make any friends, and as more of what few friends he could make left him, he grew more and more possessive and controlling over those he had. All in all, his attempts to make friends and be accepted have been little more than a downward spiral into deeper failure, which has continued on to present day.
