Tales of Sora part 50
One Big Happy Family!

"Can we please rest?" you asked. Bankotsu sighed with frustration, "Sora! We rested ten minutes ago! What's wrong with you?" Bankotsu said. "Well, she is weak because her body is getting used to being a normal fox demon" Tsuki said. "Yeah, we should rest" Seiko said. "What?! Your tired?!" Bankotsu said. Seiko shook his head, "No, but don't you care about Sora? She must be really tired. In fact Sora should fall asleep and you should carry her" Seiko said. Bankotsu's face went a little red and he quickly turned around, "Why should I carry her?" Bankotsu growled. "Yeah, he would drop me anyway" you teased. "Well, my arms don't work and I'll never let Tsuki get near Sora" Seiko said. "Com'on! Its been 250 years since that happened!" Tsuki complained. "I don't need sleep. I just want a break" you said. "Too bad, suck it up" Bankotsu said. "Who do you think you are? Our leader?" Seiko asked. Bankotsu didn't say anything, he just continued walking. He seemed a little angry for some reason today. His pace was extra fast. You caught up with him and walked next to him. Your body was tired but you tried to ignore it. "Something wrong?" you asked. "Kind of" Bankotsu said. He walked faster so he was ahead of you. You noticed he was holding the place in his arm that his jewel shard is in. You grew worried. This time you couldn't sense his feelings at all. It will be harder to know how he feels. Soon all of you entered the village that Toru and Jun live. You looked over to the rice feilds and saw Toru. Seiko was about to run to him but you pulled Seiko back. "No, we can't talk with him like a brother yet. He doesn't remember us" you said. "I TOLD YOU NOT TO COME BACK!" Jun screamed in your ear. She came out of nowhere! Toru, who was working in the fields looked over and saw you and Seiko and ran over. "Wait Jun! Why can't they stay?" Toru asked innocently. "Because we can't trust them! They are fox demons!" she said. "But..I'm a fox demon" Toru said. "Yes, but these are wild fox demons! They come from the forests with monsters and all sorts of demons. I bet this isn't ever their true form!" she yelled. You and Seiko stood next to each other sucking in the insults. Then Bankotsu did the most STUPID thing. He slapped Jun's face, "DON'T TALK LIKE THAT! YOUR JUST A COWARD WHO FEARS DEMONS! YOU MUST ALSO FEAR TORU BECAUSE HE'S A FOX DEMON TOO! THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T WANT HIM TO HAVE HIS MEMORY'S BACK AND YOU MAKE ALL HIS CHOICES FOR HIM!" Bankotsu spat. There was silence and then Jun started to cry and run into the house and Toru ran after her. You, Seiko, and Tsuki stood there with your jaws hanging. Bankotsu turned around with a huge grin on his face, "Well, that showed her" he said, pleased with himself. "You idiot! Do you think that will make her trust us more!? You made the poor thing cry!" you yelled. Bankotsu had a cute, innocent, and confused look on his face. "She is right. Now even Toru may not trust us" Tsuki said. "Calm down, everything will work out" Bankotsu assured. Toru then came out of the house, his face expressionless and stood in front of you, "I'm sorry but you must leave" he said. "Toru, please.." you begged. Toru then looked at you with anger in his blue eyes, "MY NAME IS SHINTO! NOW GET OUT BEFORE YOU CAUSE MORE TROUBLE!" he spat in your face. He was very scary when he was angry. You backed up into Seiko. Toru then turned around and ran back into the house. You turned to Bankotsu, "See what you've done!" you spat. "We should talk to them" Tsuki said. "What do you expect us to say?" Seiko asked. "Ok, here is the plan" Tsuki then motioned all of you to come closer. All of you huddled around Tsuki and listened, "First, we'll come into their house and tell them sorry. Then if they accept our apology, we explain to Jun that Toru should decide for himself if he can trust us. Then if that works, we tell Toru that Sora and Seiko are his siblings. Then we'll give him his memory's back" Tsuki whispered. "That's one stupid plan" Bankotsu said. "Yeah, I doubt it would work" you said. "Lets still give it a try" Tsuki said. All of you nodded and went into the house. Toru was comforting Jun in the family room. Toru then saw you, "I told you to leave!!" Toru yelled. Bankotsu stepped in front of you, "I'm sorry for slapping Jun" he said. He didn't sound like he meant it when he said it. He said it in such a careless tone. "I still want you to leave" Toru growled. Tsuki then stepped in front of Bankotsu, "Toru, I mean Shinto, I'll explain everything. I was the one who erased your memory's-" then suddenly Toru looked interested. But then Jun stopped crying and got angry, "No! Don't tell him anything!" she yelled. Tsuki stopped and looked at her, "Why not?" he asked politely. "Shinto, go to the fields and work while I talk with these people" Jun said. Toru nodded and walked out of the house. Once he exited the house Jun stared with her scary black eyes filled with hate, "I'm not letting anyone give him his memory's back. I like things how they are. YOU WON'T TAKE HIM AWAY FROM ME!" she yelled. You walked up to Jun with your sad orange eyes looking into hers, "Jun, do you really love Shinto?" you asked. Jun didn't answer. "I love him as my older brother. Seiko loves him as a younger brother. And I bet that deep inside Shinto is a Toru who wants his family back too. Jun, if you really love Shinto, let him choose what he wants in his life" you spoke from the heart. "You fox demons are pretty good at tricking people. But I will never fall for it! GET OUT!" she spat. She was really stubborn. "Alright, we'll leave" Tsuki said. All of you stared at him with surprise but he winked at you. "Good, and this time don't come back!!" she yelled. You, Tsuki, Seiko, and Bankotsu exited out of the house. "So, what's the plan now?" Seiko whispered to Tsuki. "We'll camp out in the forest until when it becomes the middle of the night. Then we'll sneak into the house and kidnap Toru and give him his memory's back by force" Tsuki said. "Uh, isn't that a little bit harsh?" you said. Tsuki's deep purple eyes looked serious, "It's the only way" he whispered. So all of you set up camp in the forest and sat around a fire. "I'm hungry" you complained. "Then steal food while you kidnap Toru" Seiko said who also appeared hungry. "Wait, I'M kidnaping Toru?" you said. Everyone nodded, "Toru will be in less panic if he is kidnaped by a girl" Bankotsu said. "Jee thanks" you mumbled. "Yes and your very sneak since you're a fox demon. Seiko would if could but his arms can't move" Tsuki said. You sighed, "Fine, I'll do it. So I'll bring him back here, right?" everyone nodded. "And don't wake up Jun!" Tsuki said. You could just imagine the horror of waking her up. You gathered some leafs off the ground and put then in your pockets to use fox magic if needed. Soon the moon was high in the sky, it was time. "Good luck" Bankotsu whispered to you. You nodded and left. You took a leaf out of your pocket and turned into a little bird and flew the rest of the way. You then made it to the village and was surprised to see Toru sitting on the roof of Jun's house. He looked lonely as he stared at the stars and moon alone. You flew to the room and perched next to him. He looked at you and smiled, "Your a cute little birdie" he whispered. He put out his hand in front of you. You jumped onto his hand, enjoying how kind he was. He then jumped down from the roof with you in his hand and landed in the rice field. "Do you have a broken wing or something? You should fly away" he said. You struggled to stay in the form of a bird but you were too weak, you had to change back. You transformed back into yourself and Toru dropped you. "JU-" he was about to call Jun but you covered his mouth with your hand. "Shhh, I'm not kidnaping you. I'm saving you" you whispered in his ear. But he struggled and bit your hand. "You give me no choice" you whispered. You took a leaf out of your pocket and put it on his head, "Fox magic, sleeping comand" you whispered. Toru's struggling lessened and he slowly fell asleep in your arms. You sighed with relief. "What was that noise?" you heard Jun's voice. You panicked, if she saw you here in the middle on the night with Toru, she'll kill you! The house door slowly opened and you quickly took out another leaf, "Magic fox, hidden cloud" you whispered. Nothing happened! You then panicked more when you noticed that its because you said magic fox instead of fox magic. You screwed up! Jun stepped outside and saw you with Toru. At first she rubbed her eyes and blinked to make sure her eyes were telling the truth. You then dropped Toru and ran at Jun with your leaf and put it on her head, "Fox magic, sleeping command" you whispered. She closed her eyes and leaned against you and fell asleep. Your thought you were about to have a heart attack, your heart was beating so fast! You held Jun and went into her house and put her on her bed and put the blankets over her and her head on her pillow. "I'm sorry, but he is my brother and I can't let you take him away from me" you whispered to her. You then walked out of the house and picked up Toru off the ground and carried him to where Tsuki, Seiko, and Bankotsu were waiting for you. Toru was not going to wake up anytime soon. That fox magic trick you used makes it so he can only wake up when you want him to wake up. Your energy was so drained. To do that trick twice in a row and not be a goddess is so hard. You were also exhausted out of fear. You had to take a break. You set Toru on the ground and sat next to him. "Ah man, your heavy" you said. You looked up at the stars and moon in the sky, such a beautiful night. You looked at Toru who was sleeping deeply under your magic. You hugged him against you, you missed him so much.

*flashback*
"Toru, why are we going into human territory so late at night?" you asked. Toru turned to you with a evil grin on his face, "Because we're going to have fun!" he said. "What kind of fun?" you asked. "Fox demon type fun. In other words...we're going to piss off the humans!" he said. "You mean like that time you killed all the the farmers chickens?" you asked. "Well, that actually was an accident. But this time we are going to chase chickens and ride cows and see who can stay on the longest!" Toru said. You smiled, that really sounded fun. You and Toru sneaked into a farm feild. "Ok, to the chicken coop!" Toru said. You nodded and ran into the chicken coop laughing as the chicken squeaked and tried to fly. "Hey Sora, watch this" Toru picked up four chicken eggs and juggled them. "Wow, let me try!" you said. You took another four chicken eggs and tried to juggle them but you could barely catch one and the rest broke. "Its ok, it takes practice" Toru said. "Hey, want to try and ride the cows?" Toru whispered. You nodded with a grin on your face. The two of you sneaked into the field with cows. "Ok, watch this" Toru said. He quickly jumped on one of the cows and hanged on tight as the cow when mad. It jumped up and down and ran around the place but Toru held on tight. Then the cow gave up and stopped moving. Toru jumped off it, "So, you want to try?" he asked. You nodded, "Teach me!" you said. "Ok, cows are calmer but harder to hang onto because they don't have horns. The bulls are extra aggressive but their easy to hang onto. So which will it be?" Toru asked. "The bull!" you said. "Your very daring my friend" Toru laughed. He put you on a bulls back. You quickly grabbed its horns as it went crazy kicking the air and running around. You laughed from the extreme excitement. Then you fell off the bull and the bull ran away. "You alright?" Toru asked. You got up, "Do it again!" you laughed. Toru smiled when suddenly you heard a voice, "Damn fox demons! Messing with my animals again!!" the farmer ran out of his house with a ax. Toru then smiled and picked you up and ran away laughing.
*end flashback*
You started to laughed. Those were fun times. You hugged Toru close to you. "But now you have Jun controlling your fun. Shinto is very different from Toru" you whispered to him. You then picked up Toru. "I prefer Toru more than Shinto" you said. You continued on your way to your friends. Then you finally made it to camp. "Man Sora! I was getting so worried that Jun killed your or something!" Bankotsu greeted you. You and everyone sat around the fire. "So he is asleep. How did you kidnap him?" Seiko asked. "Actually he struggled a lot so I put him into a deep sleep. Then Jun woke up and I put her into a deep sleep too" you said. Bankotsu's eyes widened, "You can put people to sleep?" he said. You nodded, "Yes but its so hard" you said. "You scare me sometimes" Bankotsu said. You smiled, "I'll never do something like that to you. I don't do that stuff unless I have no choice" you said. Tsuki examined Toru, "Sora, I want you to wake up Toru" Tsuki said. "Uh, ok" you said. You hesitated but then squeezed him in your arms, "You can wake up now" you whispered in his ear. His ear twitched and he slowly opened his eyes. "Where am I?" he mumbled and rubbed his eyes. He then blinked, remembering what happened and struggled in your arms. "Shh, calm down!" you said. "Its ok Sora, let him go" Tsuki said. You obeyed and let Toru go. Toru fell to the ground. Tsuki sat in front of him. Toru looked up at Tsuki, "Who are you?" he asked. "I am Tsuki, god of the moon. I am the one who stole your memory's 250 years ago. And I am going to give them back to you" Tsuki said as he took out his flute. Toru shook his head, "No! Jun said that I'll turn evil if I get my memory's back!" Toru said. "Toru, she's lying! You weren't evil! You were my kind and caring brother" you said. "My name is Shinto!" Toru spat and he looked into your eyes. You then started to cry and hugged Toru, "Please Shinto! I want my brother back! I want Toru!" you cried into his chest. Toru was shocked from how you acted. Toru then put his arm's around you, "I'm sorry I made you cry" he said. "Please Shinto, all I want is for you to remember. Then you can do what you want. Deep down you also want to remember. Jun told us that you once began to hurt yourself to remember" you said. "Yes but that was a long time ago. Jun said-" Toru was interrupted by Bankotsu. "Jun said this and that but what do you say? What do you think?" Bankotsu asked. Toru looked down at you, "I...can't turn back. I'll like to remember" he said. You smiled, that wasn't Shinto talking, it was Toru. Tsuki nodded and took out his flute. You stepped away from Toru. Toru faced the flute with a serious look on his face. Tsuki then started to play. Toru close his eyes as he felt the memory's come back like a wave of water. Ten minutes passed and then Toru had a big smiled on his face and opened his eyes. "Man, I'm really am embarrassed" he said. He then looked at you with his hand on the back of his head, "I thought my sister looked hot" he said. You laughed and hugged him. "I can't believe it! You've grown up!" Toru said. Then he let go of you and hugged Seiko, "What happened to your arms?" Toru asked. "Blame Tsuki" Seiko said. Toru turned to Tsuki with hate, "Bastard, splitting us up like that" he growled. "Don't be mad at him Toru. He helped me find you" you said. Toru then looked at you with a weird expression on his face. "What? What's wrong?" you asked. "I can't believe that your actually Sora" he said. You smiled, "Yeah, I have many stories to tell the two of you" you said. "Yes, we should all talk about each others lives" Toru said smiling. Bankotsu seemed deep in thought as he watched you and your two brothers talk, but he had a slight smile. Tsuki watched you, his bangs hid his expression. Toru then paused for a minute. "What's wrong?" you asked. "Jun, I need to talk to her" Toru said. You feared what will happen between Toru and Jun now that he has his memory's back. "The sun is beginning to rise" Tsuki said as he put his flute back. Tsuki turned and began to walk away. "Tsuki, where are you going?" you asked. "I'm leaving. I did as Izanami wanted. So I'm going back.." Tsuki said. He didn't stop, he walked into the darkness of the forest. He can't just leave like that! You ran after him. Geez, how far can he travel in a couple seconds? You then saw him and grabbed him. He stopped and turned to you in surprise. "What do you want?" he asked. "You can't just walk away like this!" you said. "Why not?" Tsuki asked. "Because...we're friends. You've done a lot for me. Thank you" you said. Tsuki backed away from you, "Sora, you really have lived in the mortal world too long. Gods don't need friends. Friends are merely people to lean against when you can't defend yourself" Tsuki said. You gasped, "That's not true! Friends are people who enjoy spending time together" you said. "You really think we're friends?" Tsuki said. You nodded, "Yeah, I enjoy spending time with you" you told him. Tsuki smiled, "We'll meet again. Goodbye" he waved and snapped his fingers, he was gone. You turned and went back. "Hey, where is Tsuki?" Bankotsu asked. "He went home" you said as you sat next to him. "Well that was fast" Seiko said. You were so tired, staying up the entire night and carrying Toru and draining your magic. You curled up on the ground. "What's up Sora?" Bankotsu asked. "Sleep.." you mumbled. You quickly fell asleep.
