Past People
Prolog: Little Brother
Learning that you aren't one person is bad enough. You can handle multiple personalities. Learning that because you have multiple personalities, your not human, that changes everything! It gets worse when you learn that you and your other personality are becoming one. Everything is over, and you are just getting used to sharing your body, you find out that you and said alternate personality are becoming one person! You don't know what its like, do you?
Well, that was the dilemma Yukito was facing at that very moment. It had been six years. Six years of living with Yue. That was the other one, the other personality. He was a guardian, his job was to protect Sakura. Yukito had never even seen the man. In fact, this Yue, rarely even came out at all. It was strange. He didn't understand!
He just didn't understand. Protect Sakura. When ever the guardian had been out, he would come back with this thought pasted into his mind. Obviously, Yue knew what his job was. So, why would Yue protect him? No clue. Last thing he remembers was some man in black attacking him for Yue's moon power. Next thing he knows, he's waking up on the floor of Sakura's bed room…
X. X. X.
Yukito groaned as he came to. The feeling of having been forcefully shoved through a door covered his being. Through the confusion in his mind, he can barely hear them. He almost didn't make out the words. "That feeling will ware off in a minute." The voice said. "You have to get used to being forced in and out of your different forms Yue." The voice addresses Yue, not him. There is only one person who does that. Kero, the other guardian.
He pulled his eyes open to the blurry faces of Touya, Sakura, and the plush toy, Kero. A little disoriented at first, Yukito soon came into awareness. The sight that met him was a strange one indeed.
Touya had the small guardian by the wings, and was shaking him forcefully. "His name is Yukito, plushy. Quit calling him by that name! They aren't the same person." Touya hissed, then yelped as Kero's small teeth clamped down on his hand between the thumb and forefinger. "He was Yue once! And he will be again! Its already started, and when its done, I'll have my little brother back the way he was! The way he was meant to be!" The small creature shrieked, before escaping Touya's hand and flying off to find a hiding spot.
The room was quite for some time. It seemed to press down on Yukito, as he and the rest of the room stared at where the plush guardian had exited. What had he meant? How could he have once been part of Yue? And what did he mean, 'and will be again'? Were they starting to form one person? He shuttered at the thought.
As far as he knew, no one even liked Yue. Them again… The look on the sun guardians face when Touya said that… It was sadness. Tears had formed in the corners of his eyes, and he had bit Touya with more force than strictly necessary. Yukito had seen him bite Touya before, it never left any marks. Touya's hand was starting to swell slightly, and little red bite marks were visible.
Little brother… The word rang in his head again. That's when it finally dawned on him. Kero was older. Yue was his little brother. The feelings Touya held for Sakura were mirrored. The creature Yukito had thought unwanted, was wanted. Even if no one else liked him, Kero would. He was oldest, it was his job!
More questions filled his mind. If Yue and Kero were siblings, what was their relationship like? From what he had heard, they fought like Touya and Sakura did. But, what about their relationship before their creators death? And their creator himself! If they were siblings, was he father? And the other two guardians he had heard about, were they siblings too? Yukito's mind was reeling.
Sakura shook her head. Turning her attention to Yukito, she looked him over, checking for injuries. He rubbed his eyes and sat up. "What happened?"
"Well… You were attacked and well, Yue transformed. And Kero felt him transform, so we went to your house and well…" She looked at him in worry. "When we got there Yue was unconscious and a man was trying to drain his energy. I've never seen Kero-Chan so mad before. He attacked that man and he drew blood. I told him to stop, and well, the man got away. Then, when I tried to wake Yue, he was unresponsive. So, I called Oni-Chan, and he came and got us and brought us home. Then, Kero taught me how to force Yue to turn back into you. We don't really know what happened, or why Yue was unconscious. We tried to wake him for about ten minutes, he didn't even make a sound. We don't know what that man did to him. I'm really worried."
It took him a minute to understand what she was telling him. Yue had risked his life to protect Yukito's. Yukito didn't understand why. He risked his life, and was injured, just to protect Yukito. Now only one question came to mind. Why? Why did he protect someone who wasn't his master.
As Touya helped him to his feet, he couldn't help but want to know more. Sakura sighed. "I'll go get Kero. He needs to apologize." She got up and made to leave, but Yukito stopped her.
"May I help?" He questioned. "Why?" She asked. Yukito took a deep breath. "He said little brother. He referred to Yue as his younger sibling. And I want to know…" He stopped, looking for the write words. "I want to know more about Yue. More about his past… Our past. I want to know what he looked like. What he acted like. If Kero's his brother, than he is the person to ask."
X. X. X.
Twenty minutes later, Touya, Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, Eriol, Spinal Sun, Ruby Moon, Yukito, and Kero, sat in the foyer of Eriol's mansion.
Sakura had found her sun guardian lurking in the pantry and, after Sakura and Yukito asking him, he agreed to tell them about his and Yue's past. Kero wanted to cast a spell that would show them all some of his memories, as well as some of Ruby's and Spinal's.
The group sat in a circle, the spell was just about ready.
"Ok Sakura, it will be me and you will be providing the magic for the spell. The spell will be focused on the four guardians. The spell will extend to Yue even though he is conscious." Eriol explained. "We will see the memories like they are on T. V. We will look in on the scene. Also, we will be able to converse with each other while we are under the spell." He took a deep breath. "Are you ready?" The group nodded.
"Then let us begin."
On to chapter one and our first memory!
