Prologue

Shion laughed as she walked back into the Elsa. "Wow, that was so much fun chaos!"

"It was!" he gave her a quick kiss. "We should go out more often!"

She smiled. "We'll see... we'll see." she said in a mysterious, yet teasing voice.

"Sister! You're back, I see." Jin came forward to greet the two.

chaos seemed to zone out as the two talked. Though he had company... he felt alone. Not in the way of people, but family-wise.

Shion waved her hand in front of chaos' face, bringing him back from his faraway thoughts. "Is something wrong chaos? You seem... out of it."

"Not... really." he muttered. "How I envy you Shion..."

"Envy me? What do I have for you to envy?" she wondered.

"Family. You and Jin... even though you two don't get along too well..."

"Isn't that the truth." Shion said sarcastically, as Jin chuckled at the statement.

"You still have each other." chaos continued. "That's something... I'm never going to have."

"So... you don't have any family left? What happened to your parents?"

Memories of a forgotten past came back to chaos. "My father... I never knew him. I heard he left my mother after he heard she got pregnant. My mother... died shortly after I was born. They told me... she was lying in her hospital bed... holding me, when a Gnosis came to her. It didn't do anything... it just stared at me. When security came, it suddenly attacked. Almost everyone in the room was killed... they were amazed I didn't die. That's all the family I've had..."

"Aw... but you still have us." Shion motioned at herself and Jin. "And everyone else here... we're all like family."

"Yes... but, it's not the same. And because I have no family, I'm never going to know about myself. Why am I... who I am? Like... my wings. Why do I have wings? No one else has them... even though I'm surrounded by people, I still feel... so alone." he turned and walked away. "I'm... going to bed now. Good night Shion."

She reached out for chaos, but then stopped. "Good night..." she whispered back.
