Hi! Um...This is my FIRST fanfic so...yeah! Pretty nervous! 0_0||| P.S REVIEW
Wish Upon a Wing
Lost Wings
"Once upon a time...there were two giant wings said to grant any wish one desires. They were called the 'Tsubasas'. Many evil beings tried to capture these wings in order to fulfil their own selfish desires. To prevent this from happening, the princess of the Kingdom sealed the Tsubasas by separating them and transforming them into two objects. Unfortunately, from sealing them the princess lost all her energy and fell into a deep sleep. The Tsubasas went separate ways. No one could wake the princess for it is said that when the Tsubasas are reunited, she will awaken."
A young boy with midnight blue hair closed the old thick book.
"Grant wishes, huh?" he muttered.
As he strolled out of the library, a young girl with rose pink hair ran into him.
"Oh! Sorry!" she then ran after an older boy with dark hair.
"Be careful, Amu!" he scolded.
The girl caught up with him and walked away, leaving the boy blinking after her.
15 years pass...
"AHHHH! I'm late!"
A girl with rose pink hair raced down the stairs.
"Morning Onii-chan!" she said as she enters the kitchen.
An older boy with dark hair and dark eyes smirked over the streaming pot, "Late again, Monster?"
The girl glared at him, "Don't call me that!"
Shigeru, my older brother. Loves to tease me but he's a great cook.
The girl quickly gulped down her breakfast.
"Oi! Don't eat too fast or you'll..."
Suddenly, the girl gave a yell and clutched her throat.
"…or you'll choke," finished Shigeru as he gave her a glass of water.
"Thanks Onii-chan! See you this afternoon?" she asked.
Shigeru shook his head, "Sorry. I got my part-time job."
"Oh...,"said the girl, "Then...I'll see you tonight! Bye!"
Then she raced out of the door.
Hi! I'm Hinamori Amu! I'm 17 years old. I live in the Kingdom of Light; a fantasy world, a world full of light, magic and kindness. My only family member is my older brother.
When I was young my parents died...I can't really remember what happened but Onii-chan said they died from a sickness. Everyone here is born with a magical power or skill. Onii-chan can see things no normal person can! So far I don't have a skill or power...at least I don't think so.
Amu raced in and out of the shades of the sakura trees. Vivid pink petals fluttered down.
Her face broke into a smile, "I'm here!"
She ran to join a group of friends.
"Sorry I'm late!" panted Amu.
A girl with orange hair tied into piggy-tails with an iridescent pink pendant around her neck laughed, "You're not late, Amu-chii!"
Yuiki Yaya. Age 16. She possesses psychic powers.
"You're on time Amu. One of the first," said a girl with long, wavy blonde hair.
Mashiro Rima. Age 17. She's short for her age. She's excellent with rope...or a whip.
"Good morning Amu-chan,"greeted a boy with long purple hair.
Fujisaki Nagihiko. Age 17. He's good at basketball, spears, cooking and Japanese dancing. His other 'side' is Fujisaki Nadeshiko.
"You look nice, Amu-chan," came a voice. Amu froze and stiffly turned around. A boy with blonde hair and ruby red eyes smiled at her.
Hotori Tadase! Age 17. His power element is Light. H-He's like a prince~ I-I have a crush on him.
"U-Um, good morning!" Amu's voice went high-pitch.
"Shall we go?"
"Yes!"
The Kingdom of Light's castle loomed over the village. The castle seems to radiate light. Shimmering towers rose majestically into the clear blue sky. Their golden spires glowed warmly like a king's crown. But deep in its hallways a figure was being leaded by two guards and was bounded in chains. In the throne room, the Kingdom of Light's ruler, Mia sighed.
Her trusted advisor, a scarlet red bird named Redwing, soared down and perched next to her, "We finally caught him, Your Highness," chirped Redwing.
"This is the third time he's been seen in the Royal Treasure Room," sighed Mia, "We need to do something."
The doors of the throne room flew open and the guards threw the figure down before Mia. A boy looked up. As he did long strands of his midnight blue hair fell into his face. Mia took a deep breath, "Tsukiyomi Ikuto."
"How many times did you break into the Royal Treasure Room? This must be the third time," said Mia, "What were you looking for?" Ikuto glared at her but said nothing.
"Speak you, fool!" shrieked Redwing.
She swiped her wing and a feather went air-born. As it spiralled through the air, the feather sharpened and gave a cut as it flew across Ikuto's cheek.
"Something you don't have," came the blunt reply.
Mia bit her lip, "And do you have a reason of breaking and entering?"
Silence.
"Guards take him outside for a minute," sighed Mia.
The guards dragged Ikuto out of the throne room.
After they've left, Mia slumped back and sighed, "Redwing, while I think of something to do with him, is there anything to report?"
Redwing fluffed up her feathers, "Well, lately we've been detecting a powerful presence coming from a girl called Hinamori Amu. Throughout these years this presence has grown stronger and stronger."
"Interesting," said Mia, "Hmmm… That might work."
Ikuto was thrown in front of Mia once again. "I've decided what to do with you, Tsukiyomi Ikuto."
Ikuto shot her a glare, "Why don't you throw me in prison?"
Mia frowned, "Don't tempt me. Anyway, you are going to become a guardian of a possessor of a strong power, Hinamori Amu."
Ikuto's ears perked up at the name.
Amu? Could it be...?
"There are a few rules of being her guardian; one you must protect her with your own life, two you must not fall in love," continued Mia.
In love? Hmph. As if. There's only one thing I need from that girl.
"There are a few more but they're not as important. This task may help to change your cold heart. Now you may be dismissed."
"Are you okay, Amu-chan?" Tadase looked worriedly at Amu.
"Huh? Oh! I'm fine!"
Tadase frowned, "Tell the truth please." Amu looked into Tadase's ruby red eyes. "Please."
"Well...I-I had a dream. There were two gaint wings...then they were separated and transformed into two objects...I couldn't see what kind of object. The moon then raised and there was a silhouette of a tall person...a boy...he then reached over to me as if...as if I have something he wants."
"Your life will change from this day forth...," said Yaya in a deep spooky voice.
"AHHHH!"
Amu jumped and quickly wrapped her arms around Tadase.
"Yes! 'Get Together Plan' succeeded!" cheered Yaya. Rima gave her a high-five while Nagi smiled awkwardly. Amu's face went pink and quickly let go of Tadase, whose face was pink also.
Amu's fist trembled, "YAYA!"
Deep in the castle, in a secret chamber, two birds was watching a pool in the middle of the spacious room; a black bird and a white bird. The black bird was named Ebony and the white bird was Pearl, who was mute. They both were the lowest ranks of the bird council while Redwing was at the top; Ebony was second last and Pearl was at the very last.
Ebony and Pearl quietly peered into the deep pool. At the very bottom was a glass coffin. On the glass coffin was a strange symbol shaped almost like two wings. In the coffin was a sleeping figure with jet black hair spread out and a peaceful expression on her face. It was Zina, the former ruler of the Kingdom of Light and Mia's older sister.
"Still sleeping, huh?" chirped Ebony. Pearl nodded. "I'm going to check if anything is new with Redwing, okay?" Pearl nodded again. Ebony then flew off, out of the room and disappeared. Pearl flew down to the edge of the pool and gazed at Zina. Checking that no one's watching, Pearl closed her eyes and a light pulsed from her white body.
Your Highness...
Zina's body then glowed with a soft light.
Yes Pearl?
Has it started?
Pearl...Everything begins right now...
The sun was setting as a lone bird craws.
"Are you sure you don't want me to walk you home?" asked Tadase.
Amu smiled, "I'm fine! See you tomorrow!"
Yaya, Rima, Nagi and Tadase then walked off in their own separate ways. When they're gone, Amu's smile disappeared.
Why? Why do I keep pushing them away?
She then turned and walked slowly to her house.
"I'm home," called Amu, when she opened the front door. Silence greeted her back. Amu looked at the floor, no shoes were there.
He's still working...
Amu slowly walked upstairs and into her bedroom. She sighed and flopped down on her bed. She listened to the sound she's been growing up around; silence.
Ever since Mum and Dad died, Onii-chan had to work in order to pay our taxes. I've always been lonely. I fake a smile so no one knows...but really I'm lonely.
Amu sat up and placed her head on her knees and cried.
Far away, Ikuto watched Amu's house.
I finally found you but...
Ikuto frowned. There was no presence of the thing he was looking for.
It hasn't awakened yet!
Ikuto thought for a moment.
Might as well confront her...
Amu stared at the night sky from her balcony. Here in the Kingdom of Light darkness is an enemy. The night sky was adorned with thousands of stars that shone so bright that the night sky doesn't appear black. One of the stars shone the brightest.
I can't believe I'm doing this.
"I-I wish that I had a person to keep me company," whispered Amu.
But don't you have Tadase? A little voice said in Amu's mind.
"Wishing on stars doesn't help." A deep voice came out of nowhere.
Amu jumped.
"Who's there?!"
A boy suddenly popped his head from the roof.
"AHHH! Who are you?! What are you doing on my roof?!"
The boy climbed down and leaned against the wall of the balcony, "Your guardian."
The boy was dressed in long black pants tighten with black belts. He wore a black V-neck shirt. His midnight blue eyes glowed in the dim light.
They're so different to Tadase's warm red eyes.
"M-My guardian?"
The boy bowed, "Tsukiyomi Ikuto is my name."
"W-Why do I need a guardian?"
Ikuto sharply glanced at her, "You," he said as he pointed at her chest, "Are a possessor of a strange power."
"S-Strange power?" stammered Amu who's still shaken by Ikuto's sudden appearance, "I'm just an average girl! I have NO powers or skills!"
Ikuto's eyes narrowed.
She's unaware of it?!
Before Ikuto could say any more...
"I'm home," called a voice from downstairs.
Amu gasped, "Onii-chan!"
"W-Welcome home!" greeted Amu.
Shigeru smiled warmly at his sister, "Did you already have dinner?"
"Yes! Your dinner is on the table."
Shigeru's smile suddenly disappeared, "There's someone here."
Amu bit her lip.
I can never trick Onii-chan!
"Reveal yourself!" He demanded.
Ikuto stepped out of the shadows.
"Who are you?" asked Shigeru.
Ikuto bowed deeply, "Tsukiyomi Ikuto. Princess Mia sent me to be Amu's guardian."
Shigeru glared at Ikuto suspiciously, "Guardian? How can I-"
Shigeru looked into Ikuto's right eye and his own eyes widened.
What's this?!
Shigeru stared at Ikuto for a while.
Amu looked at her brother with a worried expression.
"Onii-chan?"
Suddenly Shigeru smiled and thrust his hand out, "A pleasure to meet you, Tsukiyomi Ikuto."
Ikuto noticed Shigeru's change of behaviour.
He knows...
Ikuto smiled sweetly and shook Shigeru's hand warmly, "The pleasure is mine."
Amu blinked as her brother talked and laughed with her 'guardian.'
"Amu," called Shigeru still smiling, "Why don't you and Ikuto talk together in your room while I have dinner?"
"WHAT?!"
Amu sighed as she closed her bedroom door, "Sorry," she said turning to face Ikuto, "Onii-chan isn't usually like this."
Ikuto seem to also be deep in thought, "Does your brother have a special power or skill?"
Amu blinked, "Well, he can see things no normal person can."
So that's how he knows...
"I see."
"So," said Amu drawing closer to Ikuto, "What was the strange power you were talking about before?"
Ikuto looked at Amu for a moment and said, "Have you heard about the Tsubasas?"
Amu's eyes widened, "I thought they were only a myth!"
"All legends have some truth in them," smiled Ikuto. He pointed at Amu's chest, "You hold the positive Tsubasa. Yet it has not awakened for some reason," Ikuto looked at Amu thoughtfully, "Is there anything troubling you? Perhaps are you being tough about yourself?"
Amu looked at the ground, "Well...,"
Ikuto smiled, "You can trust me."
Amu took a deep breath, "I've been lonely ever since my parents died and Onii-chan works so hard he doesn't have time for me."
"Why didn't you tell your friends?"
"I didn't want to burden them with my troubles."
Ikuto blinked then smiled, "Well Amu, just close your eyes and take a deep breath and relax."
Amu closed her eyes and relaxed a bit. She felt Ikuto gently placed his hands on her shoulders. While Amu had her eyes closed, Ikuto concentrated on Amu's feelings. Suddenly dark waves came out of Amu's body and into Ikuto's own body. He winced as the waves entered.
Then the dark waves disappeared and Ikuto took his hands off Amu's shoulder, "You can open your eyes now."
Amu blinked, "M-My heart...it doesn't feel heavy anymore! And I feel a lot happier!"
She smiled at Ikuto, "Looks like your relaxing trick worked! Thank you!"
Suddenly a white light shone from Amu's chest. "W-What's going now?!" gasped Amu.
Ikuto placed his arm in front of his eyes.
That was faster than I thought.
Suddenly a pure white feather emerged out of Amu's chest and the blinding white light faded.
The feather gently rested on Amu's open palm, "What is it? Could it be..."
Ikuto nodded, "The positive wing. It awaked because you no longer torment yourself with those negative thoughts."
Then Ikuto reached forward to the feather. But before he could wrap his fingers around it, a barrier suddenly appeared and reflected Ikuto's hand of it. Ikuto quickly retreat his hand.
It rejected me! I can't believe I have to progress to the next stage. I didn't plan to do this...
The positive Tsubasa glowed and transformed into a golden lock that rested around Amu's neck, "This must be the object the Positive Wing was transformed into," she breathed.
"Yes...," said Ikuto, "Well I must go now."
Then there was a knock at the door and Shigeru popped his head in, "Oh you're going now Ikuto. Well, Amu it's time for you to go to sleep."
After Ikuto left, Shigeru sat next to his sister, "Amu...I'm sorry."
Amu looked at her brother in confusion, "Why are you saying sorry?"
Shigeru sighed, "I've been too busy for you since Mum and Dad died...I'm sorry," he wrapped his arms around Amu into a gentle embrace, "I've always known about your loneliness and I'm sorry."
Tears filled Amu's eyes and she hugged her brother tightly, "I'm sorry too. I should have told about this."
Shigeru pulled away from the hug and looked Amu straight into the eye, "That's why I want you to be around with Ikuto so you won't get lonely. But you can also hang around with your friends too. Make sure you tell everything to them. It'll be better. And don't worry! I fully trust your Guardian. Now, goodnight."
Faraway Ikuto looked into the far west where ruins shaped of two giant wings rose from the ground. "I can't believe I have to do this. But I must...I must grant my wish," he muttered.
Meanwhile, in a dimly lit room, a figure watched the sleeping Amu and the determined Ikuto in a giant mirror. Blue eyes sparkled in the dim light. The figure smirked, "So ...that's the Positive Wing. I do hope HE doesn't fail me."
To be continued...
