Author's Note: I am a new author, so don't flame me too much. This is the first fanfic I've written…I think. Well, it's definitely the first I put up for public display.

Prologue: Will Love Find a Way?

"Please! Ferio…don't forget…." Fuu bolted up from her bed, beads of sweat rolling down her cheeks mixed with the now falling tears in her eyes. It had been two years since Hikaru abolished the pillar system, and there had been no more summoning for the three Magic Knights. There were faint remnants of the land of Cephiro seen only when all three go to Tokyo Tower. Ring! She picked up the phone.

"Hi…Hikaru-san." Said Fuu almost sadly

"…Fuu-chan sorry to wake you up. I know it's late…"

"No buts, don't forget how many times I've called you so late at night."

"Yeah…"

"A dream?"

"No, more like a nightmare. This time…I dreamt that soon all the memories of Cephiro would vanish! Clef was there, and he told me that we won't remember anything!" Hikaru's voice was about to crack, Fuu could tell. But at the moment…all she could hear was silence on the other line. She decided to let Hikaru calm down before saying anything. She wouldn't be able to comfort her when she herself felt so much grief. But…she decided that she still needed to make things clear.

"Flashback"

"But why? Clef! How could you do this? It isn't fair! Please…"

"Hikaru…my dear pillar who saved this world. I love you and Fuu so very deeply. I miss you both so very much…especially…"

"UMI! How are you going to tell this to her? How do you think she would feel?" The tears poured down uncontrollably. She couldn't hold back the tears any longer.

"I'm sorry I never told you before, but it is part of the legend. When the Magic Knights are summoned, and the Mashins have been released, Cephiro's crisis will disappear. However, after the work is done, all memories should have been erased because Cephiro does not exist in your world, and neither does yours in mine. My theory is that you three have such strong willed hearts that the memories had to slowly disappear. After all, Cephiro is the land where the will determines everything. Tell me Hikaru, when and how did we meet?" asked Clef softly.

"We met when………." Hikaru was shocked, she could not remember.

"And so, I plan to erase your memories all together so you will not be confused. I will try my very best to do so…but I guarantee you will have lingering thoughts, because your wills are strong. I will not be able to take them all away. No doubt most of them." He hung his head low. "It's better, I will erase Cephiro's memories too. This way…no body will be hurt. All your memories will be altered, nothing will be the way it use to be, not that anyone would notice."

"Lantis…Eagle. But Cle…"

"I'm sorry…Hikaru. I'm only telling you because as the pillar, you deserve to know. Because of this pain, I'm also making sure that Cephiro's memories will become reality in your world. I can't explain now, but I could only let destiny lead its path. You may tell the others, ok Hikaru? Hikaru? Hikaru?"

"End"

"Hikaru? Miss Hikaru?" asked Fuu.

"Huh? OH! I'm sorry Fuu…I was just thinking about my dream." Then, the fire knight explained the whole thing to the wind knight.

"Are you sure? Maybe it's just a dream?" said Fuu trying to convince herself.

"My dreams…they've always been…"

"DON'T!" Fuu gasped immediately. "I'm sorry I…just…"

"It's okay Fuu-chan." Said Hikaru, thinking twice about telling her.

"I just think we need to hope for the best and not think about other things. Plus, it might just be some silly dream." Fuu laughed nervously.

"Good night F…Click" Hikaru sighed and hung up the phone. I will not tell Umi, I can't bare for her to be so sad like Fuu, thought Hikaru. Hikaru got under her covers and brought her legs up, wrapping her arms around them. She huddled there, and slowly cried herself to sleep.

Fuu just lay in bed, not sure what to do. What had possessed me to act so rudely towards Miss Hikaru? Thought Fuu. No matter how she tried to deny it, she knew Miss Hikaru was right. The dream she had lead up to it perfectly well. Her eyes started to water, as she thought of the dream, half sleeping.

"Flashback"

"Ferio? Is it really you?" Fuu ran up and embraced him tightly.

"Of course silly, I just couldn't bare not seeing you one last time." She let go suddenly.

"What do you mean?" she said nervously, looking into his sad but beautiful golden eyes.

"I love you." He said almost regretfully. A playful blush started creeping up.

"I love you too, Ferio."

"So much…and I don't want to forget you, ever." He said bringing her back into his arms.

"What are you saying?" asked Fuu.

"I can't remember you, I can't remember your last name. What do you control…fire, water, or wind? Did…we…ever get married? All I can remember is that I love you and I know I should know but…" He started to vanish and Fuu went into a panic.

"FERIO! Don't leave me…please! Ferio…don't forget…"

"End"

And Fuu with tears in her eyes fell asleep.

Wind blew around her, twisting and turning like a mad tornado. Yet they brought her up and down, rocking her like a baby so very gently. The wind played with her hair and danced with her.

"Huh?" Fuu woke up from the musical sound of her alarm clock. That was rather weird, thought Fuu. She got up and went to attend to her daily morning routines on every school day. Along with her sister, they finally started to walk to school.

As Hikaru was walking to school, she thought over what happened. That was the weirdest dream I ever had. I never dreamt about fire before. Such beautiful fire in several colors, my dreams are usually materialistic, thought Hikaru. She was in such a pensive a mood that she didn't ever realize…

"Oof! Ouch!" That really hurt. WATCH WHERE YOUR GO'IN!!!" said a lady.

"Omigosh! I'm sooo sorry. I really didn't mean to bump into you!" replied Hikaru.

"G, um…yeah. I really wasn't that mad. I was kinda in a bad mood. Sorry too I guess." Said the beautiful blue haired lady. "I'm Umi Ryuuzaki, High School, and a sophomore."

"I'm Hikaru Shidou, in High School, and also a sophomore."

"WHAT??? You're the same age as me??? No way! I wouldn't have guessed you're a day older then 11?"

Just them Hikaru clung to her head as voices suddenly roamed her mind. "I'm Umi Ryuuzaki…Umi Ryuuzaki…what…you mean you're the same age as us? I wouldn't…"

"Uh Hikaru? Are you okay?"

"Huh? Oh…I'm fine…" replied Hikaru a bit sheepish as she was jolted from her sudden train of thoughts.

"Ya know, there's nothing more unreliable then when a person like you says your ok." Umi gasped. She felt…that someone else was talking for her…like this has all happened before.

"I'm sorry, but I'm gonna be late for school. I gotta go." Said Hikaru a bit shaken.

"Hey! Wanna meet me hear for some ice cream after school?" asked Umi. "It's kinda a sorry for yelling at you for something partially my fault." A quick excuse she made up covering for the fact she felt a need to talk to her again.

"Sure! Ja!"

"Ja ne."

"Ya know, you are a lot prettier without your glasses."

"Fuu? Fuu? FUU-CHAN!" yelled Kuu.

"Yy-ess?" stuttered Fuu.

"Sigh you usually try so hard to not let mom and dad worry. Are you sure your okay?" asked Kuu worriedly. "Do you have…"

"Someone to talk to? Its easier if your not…alone…right?" finished Fuu.

"How did you know? Have I ever said that to you before?" asked Kuu quizzically.

"No…yes…I…don't know." Said Fuu. "Kuu…have you ever told me how pretty I am without my glasses?" asked Fuu.

"Uh…I always think your pretty, silly." Replied Kuu happily.

"Thanks Kuu…well…here's my stop. Bye!" said Fuu. And with that, she sauntered towards her locker.
