Ben POV

"Neo! Get back here!"

"Not a chance, catch me if you can old man!"

"HEY!"

I laughed as I watched dad chase Neo around the yard after Neo dumped a bucket of cold water on Dad to wake him up. I burst out laughing as I saw them pick up branches and began to spar with each other as if they are swords.

Sharp pain in my head made me grip my head in pain and confusion. I leaned against the banister of the porch as I slowly sunk down to the ground. Slowly, all my senses began to drift away as a memory started to play in my head.

Flashback

"Do you want to see Neo and Igris?"

I eagerly nodded my head yes. The hologram panned Rex and Danny sparring against each other while 2 others were on looking. I recognized one of them as Fright Knight, I ran into him once at the castle. The other one I don't know who he is, he's too far away for me to see.

I focused back on Rex and Danny and realized that they were sparring with swords. Danny had a katana and Rex had a broadsword. I guess that explained Fright Knight being there if I remember, he also uses a broad sword.

"Cassius!"

I opened my eyes to see the blue sky. My dad's and Neos worried faces came into view. Dad helped me sit up and supported me. He looked at me with worried eyes.

"Are you ok?"

I put my hand on top of my head as I sat up completely. I nodded my head.

"Yeah, I-I just got dizzy."

Neo and dad exchanged looks then looked back at me.

"Are you sure? We can take you to the doctor if you want?"

"No, I'm fine dad, promise."

I looked back up at Danny and Rex as they helped me up. I froze when I realized that I called them that. Their names are Igris and Neo, not Danny and Rex.

I thought about the vision and I remember seeing dad and an older version of Neo fighting together with swords. I took a glance at Neo and dismissed the thought, Neo didn't look as old when I saw him in the memory.

"Are you sure you're ok Cassius?"

I looked back at dad and nodded my head when the question popped up in my head.

"Actually dad, do you know anyone by the name of Danny and Rex?"

My dad froze and didn't change his expression. Neo answered before dad could.

"Did you say Rex?"

I looked at him with a curious glance and slowly answered his question.

"Yes?"

I swear I could see the lightbulb go off in his head.

"I've heard that name before, back when I was 13, I woke up to voices and whispers in my room, they called me Rex, I didn't hear that much before I freaked out and went to dads room."

I took in that information with my curiosity being peaked. I looked at my dad and even though his expression did change, I could see the guilt in his eyes. I stepped closer to him and closely examined his face. He stepped back from me when I did that.

"You know something, don't you dad?"

He stepped back further from us and down casted his eyes. The only time when I've seen him act like this is when he's lying or he's guilty.

"No, I don't."

"Dad, come on, we know that you're hiding something from us, what are you hiding from us."

"Nothing, I'm not hiding anything from you two, now end of the discussion, go do your chores."

Dad walked into the house and closed the door behind him. We exchanged glances.

"He's hiding something from us."

"Yeah, I know."

I stared at the retreating figure of my dad as he walked away from the back door. I started to think when all of this started to happen. I realized that all of the moments of Deja vu started right after I turned 15 years old.

"Neo, I didn't get dizzy, I had some sort of... vision or or a memory."

Neo looked at me with a curious look and nudged me to go on.

"And I saw you and Dad fighting against each other with swords, but, you looked older, you looked like you were 20, and dad looked to be the same age."

Neo shook his head, already dismissing what I saw.

"That's impossible, dad is 18 years older than us, there's no way me and him could be the same age."

I rubbed my head again and sighed in an exasperated way.

"Yeah I know it's impossible, but what I saw, it was so real, it was too realistic for me to just pass it off as a figment of my imagination."

I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked to see Neos sympathetic eyes.

"Its fine, the same thing has been happening to me, well sort of."

"Really?"

He rubbed the back of his neck before he continues speaking.

"Well ever since I turned 15, I've been getting these bouts of Deja vu almost every time I see you and dad together or someone at school says something."

Relief flooded our body as he related to me.

"The same thing has been happening to me, although this is the first time this has happened to me."

We stood there in silence as we processed all the information.

"Do you think he'll ever tell us?"

I thought about it for a second. Dad definitely hid secrets from us and it's always been difficult to pry it out of him. He usually doesn't tell us until he thinks we are ready for the truth.

"I don't know, he usually doesn't reveal the secret to us until he's sure that we are ready for the truth. He'll tell us in due time."

"Yeah, you're right, come on, let's go inside and do our chores before he gets mad at us."

We walked in and did our chores. Dad started helping us after he got dressed so we finished relatively quickly. For the rest of the day, we lounged around the house doing nothing but wasting time.

As I laid in bed that night staring at the ceiling. I started to wonder what my dad could be hiding for us. I laid there for a long time thinking about the possibilities before I pushed it out of my mind and rolled onto my side to go to sleep.

He'll tell us eventually, I trust that he will.
