Mimi: Welcome to LPLB Oneshots! I'll be writing some backstory from the Lost Prince, Lost Brother series! From stories with little Clay and Kai, to unexplained things that occur throughout the main story!

Without further ado, onto the first story!

Zelda: YAAY!


Takes place: After Ray takes Clay home, before Nya was born.


Clay's POV


Fire. It was all around me. I saw the deadly black smoke slowly start to embrace me.

My eyes stung and I coughed. I couldn't see anything, but I could hear so I cried for my mommy. She rushed into the room and I felt her pick me up. I could now see the flames dancing, but I still couldn't make out mommy's face. I grabbed tightly onto mommy's kimono as she whispered comforting words into my ear and ran out of the room. We were on the last floor when strange men surrounded us. Their black clothing made them hard to see in the thick smoke. I felt mommy hug me tighter.

But mommy didn't have any weapons, so I felt a hand grab the back of my kimono and the warmth of her embrace disappeared. Next thing I knew, the leader of the men took out a shiny, silver dagger and stabbed mommy in the chest.

At first I felt numb. I heard my mom scream and she fell to the floor. It was then I subconsciously screamed as well. I would never hear her voice again. Never feel her hug again. I reached out for mommy. I hoped that she would just get up and take me back from these men.

Then the leader of these men blocked my view. His dagger was dripping red and pointed directly at my neck. Time seemed to slow as the dagger came closer and closer. I wondered what death was like.

Then I heard a large bang and turned my head to see daddy crash through one of the walls, but when he looked towards my direction, it was first to the leader. His face contorted with rage. The leader just smiled and pressed the dagger closer to my neck. I felt something dripping down my clothes. It was then daddy finally saw me and his eyes widened. His mouth seemed to form the word 'No' and he ran straight towards the leader. I felt my mouth move, telling daddy to not come, but he didn't stop. The leader sprinted away from me, another dagger in hand. This one was glistening black. Daddy shot a beam of water but it bounced right off the dagger. It was the first time I ever saw him scared. He didn't move in time. The dagger went into his stomach and he coughed up blood. His eyes grew dim and he landed on his knees.

I screamed again, this time I kicked, punched, and even bit the land of my captor. But then I felt my clothes drenched in something red and I started to lose consciousness. The leader of the men then turned to me and showed no hesitation as his blade pierced my flesh and I screamed once more.


I sat up and looked around frantically, my hands going to my chest. I… was safe. I was in my bed at my uncle's house. The room was pitch black and I felt my breath constrict again.

"Kai?" I squeaked, clutching my blanket. There was no response.

"Kai?" I cried a bit louder this time. Still no response.

"お兄ちゃん (big brother)!" I desperately yelled, crawling to the edge of my bed. I knew I was safe here, but my body told me otherwise. When I heard nothing I started to sob.

Finally, I heard a rustling sound and the light came on.

"どうした (what's wrong)?" Kai mumbled, rubbing his eyes. I jumped off my bed and tackled my brother.

"I- I… wa-was with mommy and daddy. Th-then both of them ju-just," I cried into his shoulder.

"It's fine now," my brother rubbed my back, "They're gone now,"

"Bu-but so are my parents," I continued to cry.

"I know… I know." Then there was a moment of silence as my sobbing turned into sniffles.

"Kai?" I looked up to see him in the eye.

"Hmm?" Kai replied.

"Why couldn't I be normal?"

"Destiny chose you."

"I hate destiny."

"Don't say that!" Kai grabbed my arms, almost too tightly, "Destiny chose you for a reason. Don't think of our gifts as a curse,"

"How do YOU know that they aren't a curse? YOUR parents are still alive," I instantly regretted what I said, but Kai seemed unfazed.

"I know the powers are a gift because there are others who are helped by them," Kai calmly replied back, "So don't cry."

"I know what'll make you laugh," Kai smirked after seeing that I couldn't stop my tears from falling. He tackled me and tickled my stomach.

"Hahaha!" I laughed. I tried to run away from my brother but ended up making both of us fall off of the bed. However, Kai tackled me again and continued to tickle me.

"Stoooooooop!" I squealed, managing to wiggle out of my brother's brasp and run downstairs.

"Not until you surrender!" Kai replied. I jumped onto the sofa and grabbed a pillow.

"PILLOW FIIIGHT!" I screamed and Kai grabbed a pillow himself. We ran around the living room, laughing while we hit each other.

In another room, Ray and Maya woke up to the sound of crashing and screaming downstairs.

"Should we stop them?" Maya asked.

"I'm not doing it," Ray groaned, covering his head with his pillow.

Maya sighed in defeat and decided to let the boys have fun. The next morning, both were greeted by the sight of the two boys collapsed on the sofa, the room crashed with pillow feathers everywhere.


Mimi: WOOOO! I've been meaning to do this for a long time but never got to upload it until now! We only have two more days of Finals left, too!

Zelda! Yay! Then we'll be free to write and edit even more!
