Hello, Misc. Comic fans! The name is Anomynous Nin! And this is the first time that I write a fanfic in the Misc. Comic for a simple reason. No, make that a huge and powerful reason... Better Days.
That's right. I read Better Days yesterday and finished it in the same day. And all I could say is... awesome. Pure awesomeness. That webcomic expressed the love and drama within, which probably really happened in real life. The author of the story gave us an advice of love, and the consequences of trying to cheat love. He was trying to get us to understand what it feels like, to love someone and to betray the one we thought we loved. That was a story about the everyday life of every human being... Except, of course, everyone are animals. Heh heh...
Anyways, I'm making a story based on the webcomic. A three chapter fic, if you wanna call it that way. Anyways, as I was saying, I'm writing a fic based on the comic. It's all about Fisk and Lucy, and their thoughts about each other. Everything changed so quickly and they already got someone to love with. It was like the relationship with each other was nothing but a comfort situation, which was in the past. Well... To be honest, when I read Chapter 10 of the comic, I feel really emotional. Fisk cared about Lucy very much and did everything he could to make her happy. And she started to develop feelings for him, even though they're twins. And then... that happened.
Throughout the story, all towards the end, Fisk and Lucy didn't get together. They both got someone to love with and live a normal life. And... Well... Sure, they are tyring to be legal, but I got a feeling that they should be together. Chapter 10 opened up to me. It's like... Um... Ok, maybe I talk too much.
Anyways, here's the one-shot story. Watch out for grammars and stuff... I'm not really sure how to write "grammar" good... And also, watch out for the incest. Don't like it, don't read it. For your own sake.
Disclaimer: I do not own Better Days. Jay Naylor does.
Chapter 1:
Fisk
This planet... The planet that we are living right now... is the Planet Blue of the Solar System, called... Earth. This is where the first lifeforms were created, and where life on the planet was made. It is possibly the only planet who still lives. Many years have passed, as many events happened for thousands of years. Antiquity, Modern Age, Renaissance, everything. It is supposed to be a planet at peace. However, peace doesn't always happen everytime. They were the times of war happening in a country, a continent, and even between nations. That was where World War was created. A war to ensure the peace for their nation and to ensure the domination of one's country. If this keeps up... no one will be at peace.
But it's not only about war. It is about love as well. Love is found in one's true desire to obtain the love of another. They believed that when they truly found love, they will live in happiness forever. However, it isn't that simple. Hidden behind love... is betrayal. The other face of love is something of a greed A greed for pleasure. A greed to obtain their own happiness. A greed that shatters the heart of the oblivious ones. In order to find true love, they must find their true path to ever lasting destiny. They make sure that they will make no mistakes in their mission, not even the simplest of mistakes. Love is not something to earn that easily, but something that can be obtain through challenges.
Only a few people have experienced what it feels to be betrayed of love, to lost a special someone and to understand the world that we are living in. And two of those people were young, but greatly developped to understand those facts. A pair of twins from the family called Black. Two twins who went through a lot of the world's greatest challenge yet.
Their names are Fisk Black and Lucy Black.
It all started a few years after the war in Vietnam. Their father died trying to fend off against the vietnamese. And they lived in a normal life at a young age, before they began to discover the Earth's true drama. Fisk was an average boy who paid no attention and interest in class. He was sort of a wild boy, but a little more calmer. He wasn't afraid of anything, not even certain death. But the only thing that he was afraid of... was the death of those who he grew close to. At a young age, when his sister, Lucy, was in a verge to die, he blamed himself for not being careful with her and for failing to protect her. He wished that he was the one who should die instead. At teen age, when his grandfather died, he was starting to understand the consequences in the war against Vietnam, which made his father die for one reason... Peace. To understand what his father really died for, he decided to join the army in search of his father's real reason to fight.
Lucy was nothing more than a young girl with a lovable personality and trying to develop herself in hopes to find someone who loves her and for her to love with. Unlike Fisk, her discovery was love and its hidden face. She was trapped on decisions on who she truly wanted to be and who she truly didn't want. A conflict in love happened to her in a certain and most devastating occasion. However, she wasn't the only victim around here. She disliked the fact that someone wants to be with someone else just for lust, for fun and for something far worse than that. Betrayal, lost, confusion, she succumbed to those facts that made her feel like a wreck. However, she overcame them and started to search for her own way to find love. And she found one in the most unexpected place.
Fisk has Elizabeth to love with, whom he had dated when he was young, and whom Lucy set him up for the time being. He developped feelings for her after the first date. But when she learned that they were set up on that very date, she was crushed. He didn't want her to be sad about that very fact that made him have feelings for her, and he tried to consult her about it. However, she decided that they should be only friends with each other and nothing more. However, she still hold feelings for him even after that. Her mind never forget about Fisk. But her decisions were stuck between the decisions of her family and her way of life. She was trapped in a battle of who makes the decisions. Her family... or herself. She had chosen herself and she lived a happy life with the one who she truly loved... Fisk.
Also, Lucy has Tommy to love with as well. Their encounter was at random. She asked him for a certain felatio, and he did. But that resulted in the anger of Tommy's girlfriend, Rachel, who she slept with numerous boys for her own joy. Tommy despised the fact that she had sex with a lot of them, leaving him out of the way. He decided to leave her, knowing fully well that it would cause a breakdown to his family. No matter how much Rachel begged for him to stay with her, he didn't let any of her pity get in his way. And so, his only choice was to go with someone who truly understood him and his feelings... Lucy.
The two twins found someone to truly love with and lived a normal and peaceful life. Their relationship were greater than the few last relationships they had.
However, there was one relationship that they haven't thought about, and which was forgotten the very time that Fisk left to join the army and Lucy trying to find love... Their love for each other.
It all started in a certain night, at teen age. Lucy was asked out by the most popular and hot guy in school name Ted. She thought that she would be happy with him and lived a normal and peaceful life. However, she later discovered that he only went out with her just so he could get a close-on with her mother, Sheila Black. And after that he was yelled out by her, he thought of Lucy of nothing, but a mindless and ugly girl. Her heart shattered like glass shattering on the ground. And she spent all day crying her eyes out. Fisk didn't want to see her sad like that. And he decided to do anything for her, anything even in the most ridiculous and embarrassing way. They went to the mall, which Lucy chose to go with him. And after that, something unexpected happened.
Lucy kissed her own twin brother. Right on the lips.
That night, she was still thinking about what she had unexpectedly did, and got confused of that fact. She didn't know what to do next after that. But then, she decided to go to his room to speak about things.
That night, that very night... The two twins had sex with each other.
Lucy learned from Fisk the reason why they started doing that. He cared for his sister too much. When she was starting to die a few years ago, he just couldn't stand it at all. He didn't want to lose her, like he lost their father. And he couldn't even stand seeing her heart crushed because of that very boy. He cared for her for a long time...
But now that they are happily married with their love ones, do they even remember their relationship, which disappeared from their minds from the way that they have chosen?
It is truly a story of love and drama...
----------
".... ake.... ey... ke up..." During the black and white furred cat's slumber, he heard a faint voice coming through his ear, but still a little faint to hear it clearly. He was having a small and comfortable sleep in his time. But could he help himself waking up now? "Hey, wake up!" He clearly heard that and opened his eyes quickly. He was fully awake after hearing that. He looked around him and saw that he was still in a private airplane that flew straight towards a certain destination... His home. As he was still sitting on his seat, he looked at someone next to him. A beige fox with shirt and a pair of baggy black pants. He seemed to be another agent who worked in the same company as him. The fox chuckled. "Well, someone is having less sleep last night. You've been asleep ever since we started going off. Something the matter?"
It was true what he said. Fisk worked a little too hard that night and he was having a little trouble waking up in the morning. Although, it was quite normal to him, since the work that he was investigating went through almost all night. He shook his head lightly, his gaze never left the fox. "No, it's nothing. Just working a little hard last night."
"Ah, right. Gotcha. Well, be careful, if you don't want to sleep in the middle of an important investigation, alright?"
Fisk only nodded lightly. "Understood."
"Right. Well, at least we're almost at home. Can't wait for a two week vacation from work! All that work back there is killing me! It's nice to finally have a relaxing vacation at home..." said the beige fox, who leaned back onto his seat and placed his arms behind his head in a relaxing matter. "Maybe I should get a girl. A girl that I can get married with and have as much kids as possible. It's been so many years since I haven't hooked up with someone since Darry." He looked at Fisk to ask him a question. "What about you? Got a girl the you have the hots on?"
Fisk crept out a small smile on his lips, remembering his loving family back home. "Yeah... A beautiful woman... And we shared three children together..."
"Ah, lucky you! Good thing you got a girl and children earlier than I'm going to do. Yeah, it's nice to spend your vacation with the family you loved. It was the only time left to take care of your wife and kids. Work isn't the only thing that you have to do. But you know that, don't you?" The fox began to set his eyes out at the window, enjoying the view of the numerous clouds moving in response of the plane's flight. "By the way, do you have any family back home? Like... a mother and father?"
Fisk looked at the fox with his eyes in curiosity of why he asked that. "Why do you ask?"
"Ah, no reason. I was planning on visiting my folks for a few days, before I go all out around the town. I wanna hear what the news is in there. Not only that, but they were worried for my safety. So it's better if I go see them and tell them that I'm ok."
"I see..." He understood what he was trying to say. True, there was another family back there who are enjoying life as there is. "In that case, I do have a family who are enjoying life just as I do, back home. A mother who lived happily with a man who I can trust her to be with..."
"Let me guess... Her name is Sheila Black? I read all about her in her profile, a few years ago. She's an interesting woman, alright."
Fisk only nodded. "Yes... And I have a twin sister who is happily married with a good friend."
"She lives in the same town as you?"
"A little further away, just in the next town."
"Ah, right. Well, at least they're living in peace. I can't even imagine any of them living in despair."
"Does your family lived in despair?"
"Sometimes, when I was away for work. They were worried that something might happen to me. I already told them that everything will be just fine, and that I won't get hurt badly or killed in any other way. Well, you know how my parents are... They cared too much about my safety. Can't blame them for that. Heh heh..."
"Care..." whispered Fisk. Care... That word that expresses one's love for his family. That word expresses one's desire to protect their special people. When he heard of that word, he couldn't help, but feel like he remembered something in the past. But it was so vague, that he couldn't unmask it with any common sense or even complicated ones.
"I have a brother and a sister too. My bro is 16 years old, and he was planning on becoming a journalist. I'm not sure about his future job. I think he would great on doing the weather report. He can tell the weather very well. And it was predicted at the very same way he talked about. And my sister is 18 years old. She has a hot boyfriend who she can have sex with every single night, when he comes to visit her. Well, you know what it's like, when girls are ready to do anything at that age. But I just hope she doesn't turn into a big slut. I actually have a nightmare about that once." The fox chuckled at the thought of the nightmare he had, when his sister became someone that he didn't want her to become. "Well, as long as these two are doing ok, I'm doing fine as well. I just love those two very much!"
"... Love..." Once again, Fisk whispered one word that remind him something from the past. It was vague, just like before, but there were little details that were shown this time. But it was still too vague to know what it was. For some reason, Fisk was having a thought of why that vague memory came to him, when he heard certain words like "care" and "love".
The fox noticed the black cat's thought of things, as he began to ask him something. "Hey, everything alright?"
Fisk snapped out of that thought and looked back at the fox, shaking his head lightly. "No, it's nothing... Just something that I remember..." He was half-right about it. He did remember something, but he didn't know what it was.
"Oh well." The fox shrugged. "I hope that memory makes you a happy. Everyone deserves a happy memory, even when it's someone as bad as a killer." He went his gaze back towards the window, to continue watching the clouds. But now, he could only see a city just large enough to fit a window, as it closed in closer after a few minutes. "Yo, we're almost here." he alerted Fisk.
The black cat nodded and continued to wait here, until the plane made a landing on the ground and fully stopped right in its tracks. The door opened and a stair escalator was moving towards it, trying to form a path for the passenger between there and the solid floor. Fisk and the fox, as well as the few passengers of the private plane, went to the door and descended down from the stair escalator to the ground. The fox stretched his arms up high to try and feel better with a little stretch. "Ahh... Finally back home... Can't wait for what's in store for me. In fact, maybe I'll start trying to score as many girls as I can! Hah hah! Nah, I'm just kidding."
Fisk took a quick look at the fox, before he began to walk forward, to head out to his usual destination... Home. "I can understand your enthusiasm."
As soon as he walked away from the plane, the fox quickly followed him just in time for one more question. "Hey, wait! I didn't catch your name yet. Who are you?"
"... Fisk."
"Ah, Fisk Black! Well, sorry for asking you that. They never told me of your first name. I'm Leo Daverra. But I would like to call myself Leo Da Vinci!"
Fisk shot a curious look at the fox, named Leo. "... Like the artist from the Renaissance period? Why?"
"Oh, you know. Most of the time, when I'm taking a short break from work, I draw stuff. A lot of stuff. And when I showed those drawings to many companions, they were astonished. they even told me that I'm at a level of an expert artist. Well, yeah, I did get a perfect grade in Art class back in highschool..."
Fisk simply nodded once more. "I see... You can show me some of your arts some other time."
Leo grinned. "Yeah. I won't let you down. My art will bring any loving emotion to any who looked at it that way!" he said, as he hit his chest full on with his fist, as a sign that he was confident with everything he went through. He was a man of his artistic talents. "Anyway, I better go. I need to help out my sis with some stuff, so that she'll be ready when she gets married with his boyfriend. I'm not much of a marriage expert, but the least I can do was to help her out in any way I can."
Fisk could feel the love Leo felt for his sister. He cared so much for her that he would do anything for her. But... When Fisk thought about it... He thought that it felt familiar... Like...
"... Fisk... Fisk..." Suddenly, he heard a voice somewhere inside of his head that almost made him jump of surprise. What was it? Another memory? This time, it was only in a voice, and not in image. "... Don't stop... Fisk... Don't stop..." From the thought of that, he could tell that the voice was somewhat having sex... with him. When he thought about that voice, he thought that it might have been Elizabeth. But she didn't sound anywhere like that. Maybe Beth? No, not her too... It was someone else that he couldn't possibly remember having sex with...
"Hey, Fisk! What's up?" The black cat once again snapped out of the memory and looked at Leo, who seemed to be a little worried about him. "What's wrong? You spaced out a few seconds ago.
"Oh. Um..." Fisk raised his hand up and used his palm to rub his temples. That memory was starting to bug him a little more than before. He even made Leo worried. "I'm sorry... It's just that... I still keep remembering something that I don't... even know what it is..."
"You're having some kind of a flashback? What's it like?"
"I'm not sure... Everything was so vague... And this time, I heard a voice of someone, moaning my name and plead that I don't stop..."
"Waaaaiiit a minute! Are you sure it's not you having sex with your wife or something? Because it is pretty obvious that you two have, like, I don't know... sex three times and made three children."
"No... My wife didn't sound anywhere like that... Not even my last girlfriend... It was someone else..."
"... Are you sure that it's not Nikki? I mean, don't get me wrong. I didn't spy on you or anything like that. I read some reports in your profile, and Nikki's, that you two had sex at the age of..." Leo would like to continue on, but he thought that maybe it was a little too much information of such things. "... Maybe I shouldn't explain it. It's... confidential in your part, right?"
"Right..." Fisk nodded again. "But... It's not even Nikki... I mean, she did sound like that at that age... But it was nowhere near that voice... There was someone else that I had sex with that I don't really remember... It's been such a long time..."
"Well... Whatever it is, I hope that you'll remember it soon enough. I mean, I can understand that it's starting to get really annoying to remember things unexpectedly that it would give us a little headache, but if it's something that you gotta know, try to remember harder. Otherwise, it'll be hard to remember things if it gets in your way so many times..."
"Yeah... You're right..."
"Well, then, good luck in your part. I gotta go and see my folks. They're dying to see me alive and well." said Leo, as he gave Fisk a refreshing smile that even an angel could make. "See ya!" He waved good bye to him, as he ran towards one direction, while calling taxi for a ride.
"... Remember... the past..." Fisk whispered. If it was something that he has to know, if it was something that his mind wanted him to remember... Then he had to try harder in order to remember what his memories were trying to tell him. It felt like... His memories were giving him something that he had to do, to settle things over with. But what was it, anyway? What were his memories trying to make him do? He didn't know what else to do. He couldn't think harder even if he wanted to. But it would lead him nowhere, until time passed. And so, he decided to grab his stuff and call in the taxi, to go and see his loving family once more...
----------
The taxi stopped in front of the house of the Black residence. The door to the rear of the taxi opened and Fisk came out of their. Just by seeing his house again made him feel happy. He was going to see Elizabeth and their loving children again, for two weeks. After he got his baggages out of the trunk, he thanked the driver before he set off to find more people calling for a cab. Fisk walked towards the front door of the house, trying to surprise his loving woman with his return. But, suddenly, the door opened without him being near it or even try to make it open. From behind the door, there was a young, gray mice with long, blond hair, who ran outside of the house and gave Fisk a warm and loving hug, which made them spin themselves around and around a few more times. He dropped the baggages so he could fully gave her a hug and a short spin "Fisk! You're home!"
"Hey, Elizabeth." he said, smiling as he continued to spin themselves around in a loving hug, before he stopped the spin and made sure that her feet touch the ground.
"It's so great to see you again, Fisk! How's everything over there?"
"It's been fine. Nothing too dangerous and all that. How about you? And how are the kids?"
Elizabeth gave him a loving smile that he always loved very much about her. It made him feel special around her, when she did that. "Nothing out of the ordinary. Still stuck with a lot of work at school, but I have enough free time to spend with you around. And the kids are just fine. Both Abigail and Thomas are fast asleep in their room, while Janie is still at school. It should be over soon, so I'll have to go and pick her up."
"I see. Then all is well with everything." He was happy that everything went pretty well in both his and Elizabeth's case. But since Thomas and Abigail were asleep, and that Janis was at school, that may be the time to try and arouse her with his sexual behavior. He wrapped his arms around her and gave her a tender kiss on the lips, which she responded with a return one. He then went his kiss lower so he could kiss her neck. And he continued to do so just so he could hear his woman giggle and moan in pleasure.
"Teehee! Fisk, stop that...! I still need to go and pick... up Janie...!" she said, trying to resist the small pleasure that Fisk was giving her on her neck. He didn't stop, however, as he continued to kiss her neck, before he decided to go for it a little more. She couldn't help, but let out a few small moans in response, trying to find a way to make Fisk stop trying to distract her. She placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed him a little away from her, just about two inches away. "We can do that later tonight... Right now, we still need to take care of our children until the night comes..."
Fisk smirked a little and nodded, understanding very well the situation and could wait for it until the night comes. His number one top priority, aside from having sex with Elizabeth, was to take care of his children really well, just like all the other weeks-off that he received. "Don't try to make me wait for a long time. I am starting to crave for you..." he said with a loving and seducing smile.
She smiled back, with the same kind of smile that he made. "I won't try and keep you waiting... All we gotta do is to take care of our kids... And when that is done for the day..." She couldn't say the rest of the sentence, as she knew that Fisk knew what she was talking about. She let out a small giggle and gave him a peck on the cheek. "... Well, I gotta get going and pick Janie up in time. I'll be back in a few. You can go and get your stuff out in the bedroom. Just don't wake up our babies, ok?"
He smiled quite fondly. "Don't worry. They won't even hear a simple noise when I get in."
"Well, as long as everything is a-ok." She gave one more smile to him, before she turned around towards the car and march right towards it. But as she opened the door to the driver seat, she remembered one thing and looked back at him. "Oh yeah! I almost forgot, Fisk. Lucy and Tommy called, asking if they could go for a visit this week-end. What do you think about that, Fisk?"
"That's ok. They're always welcome in our home. After all, Lucy is my sister and Tommy is a very good friend. Why would I think of not letting them visit us?"
"Well, I can think of one thing. You were trying to get Janie to stay at your mom's house so you can have the entire week-end full of sex with me." she answered with a sly smile.
This time, Fisk was frowning a little, when she answered that. "That... was only because I feel the need to..."
"Yeah, like every other day." she answered once more, giggling a little. "Anyway, gotta go now! Be back in a few minutes!" And so, Elizabeth went inside of the car and started the engine, before the car backed up to the road and went off towards the direction of the school.
Fisk was left standing here, smiling. Elizabeth sure knew how to make a guy feel like a play toy. And that was one of the million reasons of how he loved about her. 'Heh...' he thought. '... Even though that I won't be able to stay for a long time... It sure is nice to see my family again. I have a wonderful woman, three loving children, a lot of great friends, a great mother and sister and... It's too bad that it would only last two weeks. But that's how I chose my way. I started off as a soldier of war, then I became an agent, taking my father's job... I think everything went pretty well...' As he thought about it, he picked up his baggages and walked towards inside. 'But I wonder... I don't know how well the others are... I hope everything went ok with Beth and Aron... And I hope Tom and Lucy still lived well and-' However, suddenly, his thoughts were cut short, as a flash went into his mind. He dropped his baggages again and clutched his head with one of his hand. He groaned a little in pain, as his memory started to appear again. "What...? A... again...?" he said, before he could fully see what his memories were trying to show him again.
"Fisk... Oh Fisk...!" It was that voice again. The voice from the last flash of memory. He still wondered about that voice... Who was it? "I didn't know... you were that good... Fisk...!"
"Neither have I about you..." He heard another voice, different than the other one. Even though the voice sounded different, he could tell that it was his voice, for cetain reasons. "I'll make you feel happy once more... L.... y...." What? L... y...? It sounded like the past Fisk said her name. But it was so faint that the current Fisk couldn't hear it. Why? Were his memories trying to play games with him?
Then, right after the voice, he was starting to see an image of some sort. It was starting to get a little clearer than last time. The image in front of him showed in two people moving a little roughly. He could tell that it was a scene of sex, that he did it with someone that he couldn't remember. The position they were in is somewhat a missionary position. He could tell that the someone who was moving his hips back and forth was him. Even through many small fogs trying to distract him, he was starting to remembered that scene. But it was still incomplete...
Then, with a quick flash, Fisk returned to the real world, still clutching his head with his hand. He looked around himself to make sure that he was really back in the real world. He sighed of relief. But the memories are still bothering him. What was that? He did have sex with someone, but who was it? Who? If that keeps up, he won't be able to calm down until he remembered perfectly about what it was about.
Still... The memories were starting to haunt him... taunting him to remember... L... y...? Who that might be?
----------
Inside of the house, after that Fisk finished getting his stuff out of the baggages, he laid himself down on the bed on his back. The memories still bothered him a lot. Why did he have so many of them? What were they trying to tell him? Was there something that he had to do in order to end the flash of memories? But still... Who did he had sex with? And why did it happen to many times? Even if he did discover who it was, what good was it to know? '... Why...?' he thought. 'Those recurring memories... Are they trying to haunt me or something...? Why do they want me to know who that I had sex with...? There's something bothering me about those memories... What is it that they are telling me...?' He groaned a little. He turned his head a little to the left in order to adjust the comfort of his head. When he did, his eyes were looking towards four pictures, which were standing on the small table to his left.
When he saw those pictures, he remembered the memories of the past. On one of those pictures, it showed a certain group that he remembered very well. It was the time when he was in the army. He was wearing the usual soldier outfit, along with the bunch of the other men, along with Ryan Tobs, his most tursted companion and friend. The war was a tough battle for him. But it took a lot of skill and strategy to survive, barely. Ryan got hit by enemy fire and, after the battle, he wasn't able to move his legs at all. Fisk also remembered the time where he and Ryan argued with each other... there was something that had to be done for Ryan.
The other photo showed him and his cousin, Persia, with her new boyfriend who had just turned bisexual in that time. He remembered the time where he was an agent. Few years ago, he discovered something odd about Persia's disappearance. So, he had to cut his vacation short in hopes of finding her and finding the one responsible for her disappearance. Thanks to a fellow friend of Persia, who was trapped in guilt of being responsible of her disappearance, he knew that she was kidnapped and taken as a sex slave for a group of men. After he rescued her, he brung her to his other home, where she met the boy who was gay, before he slowly turned bisexual.
The third one showed him and Elizabeth, both wearing their wedding outfit at the time when they were married. He remembered that when he was young, he thought of her as nothing more than a nerd to him. However, Lucy was trying to blackmail him if he didn't go on a date with her, and so he did. But slowly, he started have feelings for her and loved her company. But it didn't last too long when Elizabeth discovered that he was set up to go on a date with her. When everything is settle with the two of them, he couldn't help, but feel sad that they won't be nothing more than friends. However, things changed now. And Elizabeth went back to him to rebuild their relationship.
Last, but not least, was a photo of the family, when he was young. He, Lucy and their mother, Sheila, were smiling at the camera. When he remembered the time when he was a child... Everything went so fast... It seemed like everything all started when he was a kid. That was when he learned of the cruelty hidden amongst the world and everything. It was the time when everything he knew... Everything he understood... lied in his childhood, and how he developped himself. And he also remembered the time when Lucy was dying, he felt really guilty of causing it to her. And when she was crying because of that bastard Ted, he tried his best to comfort her with everything he could...
Lucy... Lucy... Why did it feel familiar from inside the heart? Lucy is his sister. He cared for her through everything...
... Cared... Cared...? He was starting to remember something. He cared for Lucy. And he also loved her...
... Loved...? Those three words... Lucy... Cared... and Loved... They all seemed to connect somewhat. But how...?
Then, another flash went into his hand, as the familiar pain errupted in his head. With one hand, he clutched his head and closed his eyes tightly, trying to make the pain go away. "No...! Not again...!" He knew that a memory is coming into his vision, when that happened. But what was it going to show now?
"... Don't stop, Fisk...! It feels so good...!" There it was. The girl's voice. The very same girl that echoed into his mind ever since back in the airplane. It was so frustrating. Who was it, already?
"Lu..." ... Lu? Not L... y...? It felt like the name was starting to get cleared. But why? "I'll make you forget about that sadness... I want you to know that I love you too much to see you heartbroken..."
"Fisk... Why...? Why do you care about me so much, Fisk...?" Just as she said that, an image came into his view. It was the same image than last time, but with a little less fog. He could see himself thrusting his hips onto the girl whom he had sex with. He could see that they were still young, around the age of 14 or so. When he looked at the shadowy figured, something made his mind click. He was starting to remember her...
"Because... You're my sister..." The name slowly came into mind, but still too vague to read. "I hate seeing you like that..." The name is slowly getting clearer and clearer... "And I want to express myself that I care about you..." Getting clearer... "... That I love you..." Clearer and clearer... "I will always protect you... Always... L..."
"LUCY!!!" He remembered now. The one girl who he had sex with at the age of 14... The one girl he cared about and loved with... was the girl who he always protect... Lucy... "... So... Lucy was... the girl that I..." He didn't know how to feel. Would he feel happy? Or would he feel guilty? He didn't know what...
But, when his consciousness returned to him, he could see that something was different. He wasn't in his bedroom, but in a pure white room. A room that he had never went before. He quickly stood up from the ground and looked around himself. There was no door or anything at all. Just a room, with no entrance or exit. "... Where... am I...?"
"... You're inside of your mind." Suddenly, he heard someone's voice. It sounded like a teenage's voice. When he was starting to look around for someone, he found one particular person standing in the same room as him... But he seemed familiar... Too familiar... As if...
"... Who... are you...?"
Upon his eyes, he saw the younger version of himself, 14 years old. He wore a white shirt and a pair of pants with the same color. He seemed straight up and a little perfect. But that was what made him feel uneasy in the first place. "I am you... Or at least, I'm your memory."
"My... memory...?"
"That's right. I'm the one who sent you the flashbacks of the missing memory locked deep within your heart. It all started when you were in the army. You slowly forget about your time with your sister, and how it all happened."
"If... If that was you... Then what are you trying to tell me...? What is this all about?!"
"I'm trying to warn you about your future."
"My future...?"
"Yes. Your future might be in vain. If you don't settle the score with everything that you ever locked out..."
"... What are you saying? What's this about my future?!"
"... If you don't get it done soon... Your future might be very well lost..."
"What?!"
"Fisk... Go and confront your sister. If you want to keep your future... Then you must settle everything with her. You two are destined to end it all... You two are destined to fix everything... If you won't... You and your sister might meet a terrible fate..."
"... Are you saying that... I have to..." Fisk wasn't able to finish his sentence, when he saw that his younger version was slowly starting to fade away, as if he was a mirage or something. "Hey, wait! What do I have to do?!"
"... Trust your heart... It tells you what to do..."
"Wait! I still don't understand what I should do about it!"
"... Trust it... with your very heart..."
"WAIT!!!" But it was too late. His younger self disappeared from his view. And suddenly, a flash of light shined into his eyes, almost blinding him in the process... Then, he started to have another memory...
Flashback
The young Fisk was laying down on the bed, looking out of the window to the moon that shined brightly deep into his eyes. Since he was a full grown teenager, he was topless at that time. As he continued to watch the moon, the door slowly opened. He looked out to see his twin sister, Lucy, with her white shirt and pink panties. She seemed to be worried about something. But he could tell very well what was on her mind. So, he moved in for some space for her to tuck in. She climbed on his bed and descended down, looking at him with worried eyes.
"... I was lonely..." she said.
"... You don't have to be..."
End flashback
Fisk sat up from the bed off of his back. He looked around himself with quick glances. He could see that he was back in the bedroom again. Sighing, he threw himself back down on the bed. "What... happened...?" he said, still confused of what happened back there. Then, he remembered something. When his younger version told him that his future might be at risk... Could he be right? Was the missing memory trying to alert him to settle things quickly before it was too late? What was it about? What was everything all about? He couldn't wait for any more questions. He had one priority in mind.
"... I gotta see Lucy." he said, as he got off of the bed and ran out of the bedroom.
He ran towards the front door and, as he stopped right in front of it, he quickly opened the door in no time. There, his eyes met his wife's. And his daughter's. "Fisk?" said Elizabeth, confused of what happened.
"Daddy?" said the young Janie, with her white childish dress.
"Fisk, what's wrong? You look like you're in a hurry or something."
Fisk sighed a little. He was feeling a little agitated, but he had to do something and go see Lucy. "Elizabeth, I'm sorry... But there's something that I gotta do. Let me take the car."
"... Ok." Elizabeth simply said, as she lifted up the car keys to him. "But one more thing... Lucy called on my cellphone. She told me that you should go and meet her somewhere at the top of the hill, where you two usually went when you have something to talk about, when you were young."
"She did? Is there something... she wanted to talk about?"
"I think so... You should get going as fast you can."
"Right. Thanks, Elizabeth." Fisk said, as he took the car keys from her hand to his and walked towards the car.
But before he could get going, Elizabeth turned towards him and shouted out to him. "Hey! Fisk!" The black cat turned his attention towards his wife, waiting for her to say something. "... Right now... She needs you the most..." she said, smiling widely at him. Fisk smiled back, as he got inside of the car and started the engine, before he went down the road and head for the destination that he received from Lucy herself.
"... Mommy?" asked the young Janie to her mother, whom she turned to face her. "Where is daddy going...?"
Elizabeth smiled at her daughter. There was a time where things have to be settled for the good of the people. She would tell her about it, but she wouldn't understand. So the best way was to make it short...
"Well, Janie... Daddy has some unfinished business to tke care of, with Aunt Lucy... He'll be back eventually... After everything is all settled with the two of them..."
----------
In the road, Fisk was driving down the familiar rpad to the certain place where he and Lucy always went when they were young. It was their special spot that they could talk about things. If Lucy wanted him to meet her there, then she might have the same thought about him. And so, he had one objective to accomplish...
"Lucy... I need to see you..."
----------
There are times when we forget about our childhood, at an adult age
But when we discovered our precious things from childhood, we slowly remember them
Even the faintest memory can be remembered by a single key
And once the memory is remembered...
... the light shall shine the way.
