I was waiting for one last review before posting the final chapter, so you guys better thank StarlightProject! I'll also thank all future reviewers/followers!
I'm sorry about stabbing all of you in the hearts last chapter... I assure you, it'll all be okay! Okay?
For those of you who haven't read Just Someone's Toy, it basically ended in a three-way, I still have no idea how that happened. It was GakupoxKaitoxVY2... In the end, it hinted that they might adopt in the future.
For those of you who did read it, and are now reading this, you shall now find out who Kaito's adopted child is!
So their family is here! [Without Kaito sadly.]
Enjoy the final chapter! Don't forget to leave this story your last review!
[Chapter 11 - Fake Memory]
Walking in the graveyard with Yūma, we went to go visit Kaito's grave again. It is his death day after all. Sadly, he died on the same day Kaiko did, years later.
The medication the hospital was giving him was no longer working. He was slowly starting to suffer more and more all over again.
Yet, he would simply smile and attempt to reassure us that he'd be fine. Galaco, being very attached to her 'mother', started noticing his odd behavior.
How are you supposed to tell your adopted child that the one they had let themselves attach to, and call 'mother', was going to die?
When Kaito died, she didn't understand fully, but knew a lot more than we expected. He was saying a lot of things as the time came closer, Yūma and I did suspect him of telling her things that weren't exactly age appropriate... His words got more dark and disturbing by the day...
We thought it best today to just bring Galaco over Mizki's house. It was her niece after all, so she wouldn't mind. We planned on taking her back to the cemetery another time, a better time.
Approaching where 3 of the many dead Shion siblings' graves lie, I spotted a body.
It looked a lot like... Taito.
I ran over immediately. Could he possibly be passed out from shock? Turning over the body, I realized that that was too good to be true. He loved Kaito too much to do ANYTHING without him.
I could still hear his heartbeat, although it's faint. That means it's not too late...
Which reminds me, I was supposed to visit him today after coming here...
Too bad the only time Galaco could see her uncle, was while he was lying in a hospital bed. At least this time it's not at a mental hospital...
His eye slowly opened, taking in his surroundings. He didn't say anything, he just continued laying there.
That's always one of the worst reactions. Kaito used to do it too...
"Uncle?" Galaco stepped closer to the bed. "Mother told me a lot about you, I always wanted to meet you. He said you were a really good brother, you know!"
"Really...?"
"Uh huh. Before he died, he said he wanted to see you again, he said he hoped you wouldn't be sad or lonely."
"He's not dead though." How Taito's mind works, I'm pretty sure it tried to block the memory. "Right before I passed out, he was right there next to me. He kept saying 'sorry', that it was only a joke, and he wanted to see how much I cared, but he didn't mean for it to go so far..." Another solution for his mind, to create a fake memory.
I don't know if Galaco should be hearing this though, she might not understand...
"He definitely took it way too far then!"
"Yes, but it's okay. I forgive him."
Taito is now living with us. The hospital didn't see any of the files with his mental problems I'm guessing. Who knows what Taito did to the mental hospital, but I think those files might have gotten lost within the place.
It still worries me if he's stable enough to stay with us, I haven't seen the other side of him yet at least. Well, with Kaito gone, I don't think it'll be as bad, I have a feeling in his mind, Kaito's still here though.
At least now we can all deal with Kaito's death together. I know it's been more than a year now, but he was such an important person in all of our lives, having him gone had such a big effect on all of us.
At least Taito and Galaco are getting along well. He's similar enough to Kaito to comfort her... I guess he's happy to have someone who was close to Kaito to talk to too, one that wouldn't 'take him away from him', even if she isn't blood-related.
Kaito did say something about a person remaining alive in another's memories after all...
On that note, Taito will also be in the Just Someone's Toy/We Can Never Separate continuation fanfic. I still haven't come up with a name for it though. The main character is Galaco, but as you can tell from the ending, there will probably be a lot of Taito too. Also, most likely some GakupoxVY2 now that Kaito's gone...
Everyone gets lonely, you know...
Ah, and thank Shiori. This chapter was originally going to be Taito's funeral, but because of him, Taito's alive!
This fanfic will probably get 'episodes' out of the chapters once we finish Just Someone's Toy. Make sure to check out my spare YouTube 'Ayakashi Rage' for them!
Thank you for reading, my puppets, I hope to see you again in the future~
