Prologue
It was a warm night in May, when Crystal found him lying on the cave floor. Crystal was gathering wood for her outdoor fire pit to use later in the week, when a young kit ran to her. She bent down with out dropping her bundle of wood, she asked, "What is it Naru?" The young kit known as Naru, yanked on Crystal's sleeve trying to get her to follow him. "Alright then no need to pull." She stood up and motioned for Naru to take the lead. With that Naru took off sprinting with Crystal right behind him. They ran threw the forest while Crystal was making sure that she wasn't dropping the wood that she worked hard to collect.
Crystal was still following Naru until they stopped at a clearing. She stepped into the clearing and was greeted with a growl. A black wolf with blue tint in its fur and onyx colored eyes stepped out into the clearing. Naru ran to the wolf wagging its orange and blond tail and his cerulean blue eyes sparkling up at the wolf. Crystal smiled as the wolf nuzzled Naru, showing him how much he was missed. "What is it that you wanted me to see?"asked Crystal. Both the wolf and Naru looked at her then turned to the cave that was behind some bushes. Crystal was led by the wolf to the back of the cave and saw a young blond boy lying down on the straw mattress unconscious and bleeding from the wounds on his arms. Crystal dropped to her knees and set the wood down on the floor then turned to the wolf and Naru. "I'm going to need some water and cloth. If you both could get those for me that would be great." Both Naru and the wolf took off to grab the things that Crystal had asked for.
Crystal gently ran her hand over the young blonde's body checking for any bones that had broken the skin through the skin. There wasn't any. Crystal knew that there were cuts and bruises but she needed to check for internal damage. Her hands began to glow green and she gently ran her hands over the blonde's body again. Crystal sighed in relief; there wasn't any internal damage at all. There was a sound near the front of the cave and Crystal looked up. Standing there were two boys, one had sun blond hair with orange streaks in it as well as his fox ears and tail. He also had tan skin. He had cerulean eyes and he was holding dry pieces of cloth. Next to him was a boy with pale skin and had blue hair with black streaks in it along with his wolf ears and tail. He had onyx colored eyes and he was carrying a bucket of water. They walked in and set the things down next to Crystal who nodded her head in thanks. Crystal started to fix cuts and bruises that littered the body with the medicine that she always had with and started to wash the wounds before she started placing the medicine on to the wounds. Without turning around, Crystal asked, "Where did you find him?" "Sasuke found him while hunting." said Naru as he and the wolf boy known as Sasuke came and sat next to Crystal and the boy. Crystal nodded her head and asked Sasuke. "Did you see anyone else around when you found him?" "No, all I could smell was blood and it came from every direction. I couldn't pinpoint where." "Alright, thank you." With that Crystal went back to her task of getting the boy back to health.
It was a good couple of hours later that Crystal finished cleaning and bandaging the unconscious boy in front of her. The boy stirred but a few minutes later opened his silver eyes. Sasuke and Naru noticed first before Crystal and walked over to him. The boy blinked a couple times to get his eyes to focus and groaned at the feel of pain from the cuts and bruises. Crystal heard the groan and quickly stopped what she was doing and went over to him. "Don't move." The boy looked at her and asked in a raspy voice, "Where am I?" Crystal looked at him and said, "In a cave close to my home. My friends found you and came to get me." "You a healer of some sorts?" Crystal noticed that the boy was looking at the several of medicines that she had used. "You could say that. Now please don't move." The boy nodded his head as he noticed a black wolf and a blonde and orange fox sitting on his left. Crystal saw that Sasuke and Naru had changed back into the animal forms. 'Thank god.' Thought Crystal as she looked at the boy and asked, "What is your name? And what do you remember?"
The boy looked at her and thought for a couple of seconds. The boy was drawing a blank and started to panic. Crystal who was watching noticed that the boy was starting to panic. "It's alright. Just take it slow." At her words the boy slowly stopped his panic attack. She sighed in relief and the boy spoke, "I don't know. I can't remember anything before I woke up at all. I'm sorry." Tears started to well up in his sliver eyes. Crystal quickly gathered the boy in to her arms and gently laid him back on to her chest. Then she started to softly rock back and forth whispering comforting words into his ear as he cried. Crystal hummed a tune that always puts her baby brother to sleep after he woke up from a nightmare. 'This reminds me, I need to go get him from Dani.' Thought Crystal as she continued to hum the tune, soon the boy stopped crying but occasionally sniffed. Crystal spoke, "Well…I guess, I'll introduce myself. Names Crystal Minamoto. This Sasuke" She pointed to the wolf "and this is Naruto or Naru. He's Sasuke's mate." She then pointed to the fox sitting next to Sasuke. The boy nodded his head, but looked up at Crystal as she stood up pulling him us with her. "Oh, I'm sorry. But we need to get to my house. See I have a baby brother and my friend is bringing him home for me. And we need to give you a name until you can remember yours. Now let's see." Crystal stopped and got a good look at him. The boy had platinum blonde hair, silver eyes and pale skin. Crystal noticed something around his neck. Reaching for it, she pulled it out. On a thick chain was a silver dragon with emerald green eyes holding a blue orb in its claws. She then flipped it over and saw the name 'Draco' written in Japanese on it. "Hm…Well that is interesting, does Draco sound okay to you." said Crystal as she flipped the dragon back over and tucked under the shirt. The boy was watching her the whole time that she was looking at the necklace.
"For some odd reason, it feels as if that was my name before I lost my memory. So yeah that will do just fine. But why were you looking at this necklace?"said Draco as he pulled out the dragon necklace. Crystal and Draco slowly made their way through the forest back to Crystal's house. "Well it has your name written on the back of it." said Crystal as she watched as Draco flipped the dragon over and saw a look of confusion come across his face. "What language is it?" "Japanese." "Oh, you know Japanese?" Crystal nodded her head and Draco saw her smile. "You could teach me?" Now Crystal looked at him before looking a head of them. "If you want to, do you want to?" "Yes, please." Crystal nodded her head again and continued to walk. Both Sasuke and Naru followed behind them watching for anything out of place and listening in on the conversation. They had retched Crystal's house and Draco took everything in. The house was a two-story farm house that looked like the paint was just put on it. The windows were open to let the wind through causing the white curtains to flow in the wind. There was a barn that was painted the same color as the house and it looked a little older than the house. Draco turned to his right and saw a field with what looked like berries were growing. He looked to his left and saw that there was a well and a little farther down was a river with a tire swing attached to the tree branch. They walked up to the porch steps where there was a swinging couch that was set up in the left corner of the porch and two chairs was set in the right. There was also a small table in between the chairs. "Wow." Was the only thing that Draco could say, Crystal laughed and dropped his arm that she was holding and walked to the door. She unlocked it and pushed it open. Both Sasuke and Naru rushed in and started running around. Crystal turned to him and said, "Well it's not much but its home. Feel free to look around and get familiar with everything. Later I'll show you the fields and barn that you saw when we walked up." With that she led the way to the kitchen. Draco followed her and took in the kitchen.
The kitchen was big but not to big. There was a stainless steel fridge, a stove and a microwave above it. There was a duel sink and an island in the middle and hanging above it was a rack with pots and pans. There were cabinets all over; next to the fridge was a big pantry. Next to the stove and microwave a smaller cabinet where some of the spices were but Draco noticed that Crystal had a spice rack for most of the spices. Through the window, he could see a garden of herbs, spices, and a variety of vegetables that were growing. Crystal looked at where he was starting and said, "That is where I grow most of my spices. The field you saw earlier has the fruit and other vegetables that are gowning at this time of the year. Draco nodded and sat at the oak table and noticed that Naru and Sasuke had come in at some point and had placed themselves next to Crystal as she cooked whatever she had grabbed from the fridge and from the pantry. Crystal who was working on dinner felt someone staring at her and she turned around. She saw that it was Draco who was looking at Sasuke and Naru who were at her feet and laughed lightly causing Draco to blush lightly. "They always do this. (A/N: My dogs do this a lot when my parents cook. It becomes annoying. My dad calls them his sue-chefs. It's funny.) Do you want something to eat and drink?"asked Crystal as she looked in the fridge for something to drink and other things to eat, beside what she was making. There was a yip and a bark and she glared at the two at her feet. "Wasn't asking you." There was a bark from Sasuke and Crystal glared at him. "Doesn't matter and don't you try that excuse that you are thinking of either." Sasuke glared at her and Naru laughed at him causing Sasuke took stop glaring at Crystal and nuzzle Naru instead.
Draco laughed and said, "What do you have? And what are you making?" Crystal looked into the fridge again and said, "There's lemonade, Ice Tea, Soda, Water, Milk and OJ. As for the food, I was making southern style chicken, with corn, baked beans and corn bread." "What kind of soda do you have?" "Let's see…We have Coke, Diet Coke, Mt. Dew, Pepsi, and Root Beer though that is used for making Root Beer floats, we have Orange and Seven-Up." "Can I have a Coke, please?" "Alright." Crystal grabbed two Cokes and set them on the counter. Then she grabbed two glasses from the cabinet closer to the door and filled them with Ice. She opened the cans and poured them into the glasses. "There you go." said Crystal as she set the glass down on the table. "Thanks. So tell me about your baby brother?" Before Crystal could answer the front door opened and a yell came through the house.
"Crystal-nii!" Naru, Sasuke and Draco watched in amusement as a red headed little boy came bounding into the kitchen and took a flying leap in to Crystal's waiting arms. Crystal caught him and held him on her hip. "Hey Dai, how was daycare?" "It was chaos." A new voice caused everyone to look at the door. "Dani, how are you? And thank you, for picking him up for me." The girl, Dani waved her hand and stared at Draco. "No prob. And you are?" Draco flinched under Dani's stare and Dani backed off. She looked at Crystal for an answer. "Sasuke and Naru found him. He doesn't remember anything. His name is Draco." Dani looked at her and she continued while bouncing Dai on her hip, "The only thing clueing me in on his name was the dragon necklace he is wearing, it has his name written in Japanese." Dani nodded her head when she saw the dragon necklace. "Ah." said Dani as she sat down at the table. She held out her hand and said, "Danielle Wheeler. But everyone calls me Dani for short." "Draco." They shook hands while Crystal and Dai watched wearing smiles.
"So he is staying?"asked Dai to Crystal who realized that Draco hasn't been introduced to Dai. "Draco this is Daisuke or Dai. And maybe Dai, only if he wants to, we can't make him stay." said Crystal as she set Dai down on the floor to grab more plates and glasses. Dani watched and bent over to pick up Dai as she walked over to the table. She then placed Dai in his booster seat next to Draco. "So, Dai how old are you?"asked Draco trying to make conversation with Dai. Dai looked at him and smiled and held up five fingers. "Wow, five years old. That's amazing, you must be smart." said Draco looking at Davis who went back to drawing on the paper that was placed in front of him. Everyone fell in to a comfortable silence, the only sounds was Crystal finishing up dinner. Draco looked at Crystal who was finishing up the chicken and putting ice into the glasses and how Sasuke and Naru stayed out of her way by laying next to the table. "So…I was thinking." Everyone looked at Draco as he looked into his glass of Coke that was in front of him. "Go on Draco." said Crystal as she put the food had finished making on the table along with the glasses of Coke, Mt. Dew and milk down on the table. Crystal handed the Mt. Dew to Dani and placed the milk into a sippie cup for Dai to drink out of. "Okay, well I don't remember where I lived. So I was thinking that I might stay here, to thank you and to repay you as well." All eyes went to Crystal who had a smile on her face.
"Well, that is mighty kind of you. There is a lot of work this place needs to have done around this old house." said Crystal as she sat down at the table. Draco looked at her and smiled. Then he remembered something that was bothering him earlier. "Crystal," Crystal looked up and at him. "Hm?" "There was something that you said before. When you found me, you said that I was near your home but where exactly am I?" Crystal looked at him and slapped her hand to her head. "Damn, I knew I forgot something. This here place is Grizzly Barrels, Coppertone England." Draco nodded then asked, "But you both have an American accent, why?" Both Dani and Crystal laughed. "Both Dani and I lived in New York when we were little, then Dani and her family moved to Domino City, Japan and I moved here." said Crystal as if it was normal for her to be asked. "Oh." Was all Draco said as he took a sip of his soda. Both Crystal and Dani looked at him and smiled. "It doesn't matter. But what does is you eating and I have to ask some questions, but that is for later. Right now, you need to eat and get your strength back." said Crystal as she piled some chicken, beans and corn bread on to Dai's plate that was in front of her. Draco grabbed some and watched as Crystal cut Dai's chicken in to smaller pieces for him and Draco smiled before grabbing the beans, corn bread and a piece of chicken and putting them on to his plate before he started to eat.
