Disclaimer: I do not own: Yuuri! On Ice.
Yuuri looked at the vial in his hands. This tiny vial of light blue liquid could change his life permanently. Since he left the Council he hadn't taken his eyes off it, even for a second. Many times he was tempted to open it and drink the entire thing but always stopped himself. He thought of his family and how they would react to the news that he was dead, sure being a Guardian was equally as life changing but at least could still be with them.
"Are you doing to drink it?" Phichit asked as Yuuri kept staring at.
"Part of me wants to." Yuuri looked down for a moment. "But the other part doesn't."
"I would drink it!" Phichit said with a bit of excitement.
"Really." Yuuri raised one of his eyebrow's slightly.
"Of course who wouldn't want a chance at being a Guardian."
"But what if it comes with a chance of dying?" Yuuri looked at the vial once more.
"I would still do it. The temptation of being a Guardian would be to big for me!" Phichit almost fell out of his chair as his hamsters tried to keep him up. "Guys I'm fine. What is with you guys?"
"You are so dramatic." Carmel signed leaning against a glass of water.
"I don't know if that would be worth all the risks." Yuuri clutched his hands to his chest. "Say I do survive and I am a Guardian, then what? I'll have no memories from my life as one. What if I'm really from an enemy Coven and was killed to be a spy?"
"Like that would happen." Phichit fed his three hamsters some seeds. "Think of it this way, would rather find out now or live the rest of your life wondering and regretting?"
"Victor how did it go?" Yakov asked stopping Victor in his tracks.
"About what?" Victor asked a little nervous about what the older Guardian knew.
"About meeting with the Council." He replied annoyingly. "Yura told me about because he knew you wouldn't."
Victor shook his head and cursed that he didn't make Yurio promise to keep this a secret. "Well the Head Council member believes Yuuri is a Guardian and gave him a potion to become one. I'm not sure if he's going to do it or not."
"If I'm going to be honest I've had my suspicions about the guy. He remains me a lot of that Yuuri from 500 years ago. It helps he appears to have bonded with that toy poodle that always hangs around him."
"Do you think he'll do it?" Victor asked for the first time in years needing some from of comfort from his teacher.
"I cannot say. The chances are about equal. But if he is our Yuuri he'll make the choice he sees as the best, for everyone."
"And there." Yuuri said as he finished writing. Reaching into the Christmas present he bought for Victor he pulled out a red ribbon. Rolling up the paper he tied the ribbon around the paper and smiled.
"Vichann." He called as the puppy ran over to him.
"What is Yuuri? Are we going to play a game?" The puppy jumped around happily.
"Can you give this to Victor for me?" Yuuri gave the piece of paper to Vichann.
"Yes." The puppy took at the paper and left the room. Once Yuuri was sure he was out of sight he closed and locked the door. He walked over to his nightstand and picked up the potion before opening it.
"Well here goes nothing."
"Victor!" Victor turned to see Yuuri's puppy running towards him. "I have a gift for you from Yuuri!"
"Why that's very sweet of him." Victor took the paper and unwrapped the ribbon carefully. As he read he started to cry
Dear Victor,
I didn't know how to say this but this could be goodbye. I have decided to take the potion and see if what I was told is true. I wish I could have told you in person but I didn't want you to see me cry. Please take good care of Vichann for me if the worse happens. I know he'll be in good hands with you. Before I do this I just wanted to tell you something. It's been on my chest for awhile now but I need to say it, even if not in person. I love you.
"Yuuri." Victor folded as tears started falling down his face. He couldn't read anymore.
"Are you okay?" Vichann put a paw on Victor's leg.
Without saying another word Victor picked the puppy up and embraced him. Even though neither said anything both knew what it meant.
Yuuri took a deep breath and brought the vial to his lips. In second he let the liquid run down his throat. It had a sweet taste to it and it went down with complete ease. After a few second Yuuri felt his head hurting and he started getting dizzy. Trying not to fall down he sat on his bed and quickly laid down. In a few minutes he closed he eyes and awaited his fate.
When he opened his eyes Yuuri found himself in a dark hall. In the center he saw something glowing as he approached he saw many screens light up around him. He saw about twenty figures that looked like him but from different time periods. They all had his brown eyes and black hair. He felt like he was looking in some form of mirror. He reach out to touch one in feudal era clothing only for it to show an image of underwater. Instantly Yuuri knew this how this version of him died. A few second later he saw a golden orb float up from the scene until it reached the next one. The cycle repeated until it reached his present day self represented by a mirror. At that moment the golden orb floated out and Yuuri noticed it had a crack in it. Looking back at the mirror he saw his image had changed he saw himself dressed like a warrior, like a Guardian. The Guardian version of himself held out a sword to him. Without hesitation Yuuri took the sword and immediately the crack in the golden orb fix itself. Before he could say anything the orb floated into his body and after for some reason he felt complete.
