*Chapter 1* /Cousin!/
"Wake up!" you jumped out of bed. You annoying sister came into your room shouting for you. You guys were twins and, entering high school. You guys were sixteen years old. It was an okay life but, you wish your life was easier. Not to mention, today was the day you meet your cousins! "Jeez! Your always late for school!" she says and, leaves your room. "Well, excuse me for wanting my beauty sleep!" you said back to her. It's just you and, her since your parents died. They died last year in a plane crash going on a trip to America. You should be the one watching your sister since she has a very bad heart condition. She needs watching over! Not you! She needs heart surgery but, you guys don't have money for that sort of work. "I'm coming! You yelled down the stairs to her. "Okay!" you hear her yell back. After, you finished getting dressed, you heard the doorbell ringed. "I get it!" you yelled running towards the front door. When you got to the door you opened it up to see your cousins standing there. "Miaka!" you yelled out. She was holding her son in her hands. Of course, you know what they look like cause; they send pictures of them in a Christmas card during Christmas. "Aw! Your son is so cute!" you took him from Miaka "What's up Riku?" Taka walked right past Miaka. "Nothing much! Getting ready for school!" you said while, they walked inside. "I see you guys are starting High School today?" Miaka asked. "Yeah!" you smiled at her cause; it must be nice having a family. Being out of school now. She finished school and, now she is nineteen years old. She was only seventeen when she had her son. Taka, she met while she was in middle school. She was fifteen at the time. He was seventeen years old when he met her. Now, he is twenty one and, working. (They are deeply in love) you were still thinking about their lives until, Taka started to talk to you. "Hey, squirt!" Aren't you late for school?" Taka punched you on your head. "Yes, but... *CRASH* you heard something break in the kitchen. "Risa!" you screamed your sister's name. You ran into the kitchen to see her collapsed on the floor. "Miaka! Taka!" you screamed out for them. They both ran into the kitchen. "Call 911 Taka!" Miaka told him and, she sat next to you guys. "Okay!" he said and, pulled his cell phone out. He dialed the number while, you held your sister. "I'll be okay!" she said but, you knew she was lying. You just sighed. "No! You need this surgery or you will die!" you told her. Miaka just looked at you. "Riku? Miaka just looked down.
*Later That Day!*
Taka, Miaka, You and, their son were at the hospital. Your sister was getting checked on by the doctor. While, you guys were in the waiting room area. "What should I do?" you asked them. "How about we stay with you, until your sister is out of the hospital?" Miaka asked. "Sure!" you thought she, was only being protective of you guys. That made you very happy. The doctor soon came out after you guys were talking a bit more. "Riku?" the doctor said out loud. You stood up. "Yes?" you didn't know what the news were but, you knew something was wrong. "Your sister's heart condition got worse. She needs to be hospitalized until farther notice!" the doctor told you. You just looked down. "We will keep an eye on her just, in case anything else gets worse or changes! He added on. That just made you cry. "What about school?" you questioned that cause; you were suppose to start High School with her today. "Well, when you go back, I will give you a note to give to your principal. They will know she won't be in school for a few weeks." he handed you a piece of paper. "Now she needs plenty of rest. Why don't you all go get some rest yourself? He said and, walked away. "How can I get rest when, my sister is in the hospital?" you questioned him. Miaka just hugged you. "We will be with you! That made you smiled but, it didn't help bringing you sister back home with you guys. (I hope so) you thought while, you guys headed back home. When you guys got home, you went straight to your room. You didn't want to talk to anybody right now. You yelled goodnight to them and, lay down in your bed. Yeah, Miaka would stay with you but, that wasn't enough to make you happy. You were scared you were losing all of your family this time. You just wanted your sister healthy and, back home. Going to school together and, laughing together. "I hope everything will be better soon!" you said and, drifted off to sleep.
*Dream!*
"Priestess! You were walking around to find where the voice was coming from. "Come to me!" you didn't know where the voice was coming from. You were just walking in circles. Everything wasn't cleared to you at all! "Who's there?" you asked. That's when a bright light shined in front of you. "I am Suzaku and, you're my new priestess!" you see a guy walk right up to you. "Suzaku? Like the bird?" the guy just smiled at you. "Yes!" he touched your arm. He had red hair and, he had old looking clothes on. Looks like a gown from the old ages. "What is the meaning of priestess?" you asked him. "There will be seven rainbow color crystals. You got to find them all, to make your wish come true!" that just made you gasped. "My sister? How did you know?" you were shocked he knew. "Isn't that you wish all along? Like I said you're my new priestess!" he then, wrapped a red ribbon around your arm. "You will need this!" he said. He was starting to vanish. "Wait! For what?" you didn't want him to go without telling you why. "Somebody that you know will know what that ribbon is on your arm! They will know it's the ribbon of Suzaku!" with that said, he disappeared. Everything went silent and, you just looked down at the ribbon. You didn't want to believe him but, why would this be in your dream? "Riku!" somebody was calling your name and, that's when you woke up!
*End of Dream!*
"Riku!" you turned your head to see Miaka next to you. "What?" you just sat up in bed. "You were yelling in your sleep!" she looked like she was worried about you. She just gasped after that. You looked at her and, you seen she was looking down at your arm. Weird thing is that the red ribbon in your dream was on your arm. "Why do you have that?" she questioned you. That's when you remembered he told you that somebody you know will know what the ribbon is. "You know what this is?" you asked her. "Um... NO!" she just backed away from you. Taka was standing right behind her. Taka looked shocked and, you were wondering why. "What's wrong guys?" you were starting to get worried. You just got out of bed and, walked over to them. Miaka just grabbed your arm. "You can't be! This can't be!" she said. That just confused you even more. "She might be the new Priestess of Suzaku!" Taka said. That statement just made you shocked. "No, I'm not! Now everybody stop saying that! You backed away from them. You started to see a bright light surround you. It was coming from the ribbon. "What the?" with that said you disappeared. "Riku!" you heard Miaka call your name before, you couldn't hear anything more.
*Miaka's Pov.*
"Taka! She probably went back where everybody else is!" you told him. "Hurry and, grab everything we need! We need to get going!" you pulled your ribbon out of your pocket. Taka went to get your son and supplies. You wrapped the ribbon around your arm. You haven't seen anybody for over one year. They missed you and, you missed them. (Why is she the New Priestess of Suzaku?) You thought while, Taka ran back into the room with your son. He had supplies with him. "You ready?" you asked him. "Yeah!" with that said, you all vanished from the room. The next thing you knew, you were at the palace. "Miaka?" you turned around to see everybody sitting down eating. "Guys we have an emergency!" you told them. They all just looked at you. "We can sense that we are needed again!" Hotohori said. "I know!" you said. You looked at Taka. His character on his head was appearing again. That must mean he is back being a warrior again. "My cousin is here. I think she is the new Priestess." you told them. "She is here and, alone?" Nuriko asked you. "Yes, we must find her! This is what she looks like! You held a picture of Riku in front of them. "Please find her! You asked them. They all nodded their heads in agreement. That's when everybody went off to search for Riku. You hope she would be okay alone, in Konan!
