Thanks for reading, I'm on my way to the hospital for a checkup and this is to keep me entertained... time for my "car writing"!
All the brothers were shocked to say the least. Zuriel, the perfect blonde, the strong hearted boy; had a dead brother. They had learned that his name was Liliana and he died a year ago when Zuriel was fifteen. He barely shows his sadness openly. But now... he was crying into Tsubaki's shoulder and Azusa was hugging him. Kaname rubbed his back and Iori gently shushed him. The tears fell down his face and his shoulders shook. Yusuke, Ukyo, Subaru, Louis and Masaomi sat on the couches. Wataru sat on a pillow near the tv and Hikaru came down the stairs, his eyes widening slightly when he took in the scene. but he then regained his composure.
He walked over to Ukyo and whispered something in his ear. Ukyo nodded and stood up.
"I'll be making dinner, now. After dinner we can watch a movie to end Zuriel's first day here?"
Zuriel gasped and hiccupped as he lifted his head and looked over at Ukyo. Ukyo's heart broke seeing Zuriel like this. Zuriel nodded and Ukyo walked into the kitchen. Zuriel excused himself to go upstairs to the bathroom. When he looked at himself in the mirror, he gasped in surprise. He looked like trash.
His hair was a mess and his eyes were puffy from crying so much. Tears were on his cheeks and his face was slightly flushed from, yes, crying.
Splashing some water on his face he looked in the mirror. He then brushed his hair and walked to his room. Grabbing a blue muscle shirt and grey sweatpants. he took off his shoes and walked back down the stairs putting some clips in his hair to keep his fringe out of his eyes. He caught his brothers looking at him, he turned to them.
"What is it? Is there something on my face?" He asked them before mumbling. "But I just washed my face so it wouldn't-"
"Nothing is wrong. Don't worry about it." Kaname stood up and pat Zuriel's head. Zuriel took a step back.
"D-d-don't.." He stuttered. Kaname looked taken back.
"Sorry. I didn't m-"
"Doesn't matter." He then jogged to the kitchen, a bright smile on his face as if nothing happened.
"Ne~ Yusuke-kun. Fuuto-kun is coming home tomorrow to visit for a week."
"UH?! Give me a break! Whyyyy?!" he groaned in annoyance.
"he's been gone for a month, Yusuke-kun." Azusa spoke, pushing up his glasses on the bridge of his nose.
"Fine." Yusuke sat back down from standing up when he was told the news.
"Uhm.. who's Fuuto-kun?"
"He's our brother."
"really, how old is he?" Zuriel asked.
"Uhm.. this year he is.. fifteen."
"So I'm an older brother to two?"
"Yeah."
After a while of talking, Ukyo gave them their dinner. Zuriel didn't talk as they ate, he just listened at some points.
"Looks like someone wants to go for a swim!"
"Come on guys! Cut it out! Stop it, please!" I pleaded. They didn't stop. They held me in their arms and threw me into the water. The cold enveloped me, I shut my eyes and held my breath. I heard someone call my name, I came up sputtering water and coughing.
Liliana dove in the water and there was a bright light, it was blinding. It was red and beautiful. When the light faded, I saw Liliana swimming towards me. Determination in his brown eyes and water falling down his face.
"A-Aniki!" I gasped. I tried to kick towards him but my legs didn't move. Looking down, I saw that I had a tail.. like a fish. "Aniki! Something's wrong!" The tail was meters long with fins swirling around it in the water. It was a beautiful vermilion.
"Zuriel!" He called. The current pulled me out to sea.
I can't swim..!
My weak body couldn't push against the water. I felt strong arms wrap around me.
"Zuriel!" Another voice dragged me to shore and the last thing I saw was Liliana trying to swim to shore but he failed... he can't fail, he is the best swimmer in my family. He can't fail. This told me that something was wrong.
"Zuriel! Stop struggling!" The voice called to me.
"Aniki! Aniki!" He took me to shore. "ANIKI!" I cried. I didnt't notice the tattoo being carved into my arm.
"Zuriel-kun!" Someone called his name. He jerked and looked up. It was Tsubaki who had called his name.
"Yes?" He responded. The brothers glanced at each other in worry.
"Is something wrong?" Kaname asked.
"is it the food?" Ukyo asked him. If it was, he'd feel bad for making something Zuriel wouldn't like. But surprisingly, Zuriel shook his head.
"No, the food is fine." He gave them all a closed-eye smile. He opened his eyes. "You don't need to-"
"If you're about to say 'you don't need to worry about me', I swear to god I will punch your jaw." Yusuke threatened. Zuriel's eyes widened, not knowing the red-head was bluffing. He held his jaw and leaned away from Yusuke who was sitting beside him.
"Relax, Zuriel-kun. He's joking." Hikaru spoke. Zuriel visibly relaxed and took his hands off his jaw.
"But anyway, is something wrong? You were staring at your food as if it had told you we were dead. You looked terrified."
I wouldn't be terrified if you died... I never wanted to be here in the first place.
"Really? I was just remembering something."
Something painful.
"Should we watch a movie, now?" He asked, successfully drawing their attention away from the earlier discussion.
"Good idea." Iori spoke after being silent for a while.
They all went to sit at the couch.
"What movie should we watch." Iori asked.
"How about-"
"Battle Royale?" Zuriel asked. They looked at eachother then at Wataru.
"Do you think it's okay for Wataru-kun?"
"It's almost his bed time, speaking of which."
Time Skip brought to you by Hinata Shouyou spiking a volleyball
It had been 40 minutes into the movie until Zuriel began to feel sleepy. I guess it won't hurt to shut my eyes for five minutes he thought.
He slowly closed his eyes and instantly he fell asleep, snoring softly and falling limp into Subaru's lap. Subaru looked down with slightly flushed cheeks before watching the movie.
"Aniki! Aniki!" I screamed. I didn't get a response. The strong arms held me tighter.
"Zuriel! Zuriel! It's okay! He'll be okay! Don't you worry.." Tears fell down my face. I looked up to see a scratched out face. Like his face was censored. He had shaggy brown hair. I remember this voice..
"But what if he-?"
"He'll survive, Zuriel. Lili is strong."
"I believe you... Mason." I inhaled sharply as I held my brother tightly. Sobs and screams tore through my throat as I clung to him for life.
Now I remember. I have an older brother Liliana... and another one named Mason. Lili and May, I think I called them. Liliana supposedly drowned and when I was fifteen and under I was always very sick and weak. Then after Liliana disappeared, Mason and Father told me something that changed my life.
I wasn't human. I am Zuriel Hinata and I am not human, neither are my two brothers, mother or father. My brothers and I are adopted.
Two months before I turned 16, I began training and making myself stronger in case my brother needed my help. He moved out when he when he was 20, the same age as when Liliana disappeared. I was 16 at the time. So I have been training for about a year now.
Don't worry, Lili, I'll always wait for you.
My brother is Mason.. and I'll wait for Liliana
A/N: Okay, so I am making Zuriel's memories add up and soon they will link together and new mysteries will be solved. (my favourite part of writing fanfiction) So yeah, thanks for reading this story.
