Chapter 1
Shion looked over the empty wasteland and where Nezumi once stood and with one kiss and one promise he was gone. Shion turned around to look at the fallen walls of what use to be No.6 and closed his eyes and took a breath
" we will see each other again ... No matter what"
~four years later~
As shion walked into the underground home that he use to share with one grey-eyed boy the same age as he all the memories of their time flooded back, all the smiles all the arguments, even the goodbye kiss that Shion had gave Nezumi before he left for the walls of No.6. Everything. Shion felt the tears begin to well up on his eyes and felt the urge to cry. He stiffened as he sensed someone behind him ... Shion turned around and the tears beginning to fall as the hope filled his eyes.
As he turned around the hope in his eyes faded it was only dogkeeper and the baby that Nezumi and Shion saved during the destruction of the west district -Akime. Shion turned back around and sighed
"forget about that damn rat" the dog-keeper barked at the white-haired boy who was now sobbing
"I can't... I'm not sure I ever will"
Now sitting down on the bed that Nezumi and Shion once shared with a cup of hot chocolate in his hand thinking back to the night when Nezumi first came into his room that night that they shared hot chocolate. He slowly came back to the realization of where he was and the fact that Nezumi was no longer with him...
That he had been gone for 4 years.
Shion felt a tug on his pant leg and looked down and saw the 4 year old girl that brought back more memories that shion didn't want to face.
"What's wrong daddy" the young girl asked as she slightly tilted her head.
Shion smiled " nothing sweetheart just thinking about the past" the child looked a little confused
" what about the past" she said in such a small and innocent voice that shion couldn't help but smile "about someone very important to me"... Shion sighed " someone that means more to me than you know" the girl smiled
"do you love this person" shion blushed a little and was about to answer when a deep voice interrupted
" please answer the question" shion looked up and across the room his eyes met with familiar deep grey ones
- Nezumi.
