Chapter 50

Weeks turned into months, months turned into years. Before anyone could register it, Mystic was now two, Kamui and Fuuma had twins that were a handful, Hokuto and Kakyou were engaged, Watanuki and Doumeki had gotten married and were working on a child, Kurogane and Fai had their first child; a little boy, and Winter had a new sibling on the way soon.

Hokuto was playing babysitter today but Mystic was being very fussy. Sighing over wedding dress patterns she looked down at her niece. "Want to go see your daddies?"

"YEAH!"

~#~

"Ministry of Magic, name and reason for visit today."

"Hokuto Sumeragi here to pay her brother and brother-in-law a visit." A badge rolled down with her name and said "visiting" underneath.

"I'm Mystic Sumerwagi-Sakuwazuka,I wanna see my daddies."

The same thing happened with her and Hokuto attached it to her niece's hat. "Let's go sweet pea."

As they walked inside they saw a familiar figure dressed in navy blue robes walk by. "I submitted the paper work for that case this morning you should've received them by now."

"Subaru!"

"Huh? OH! Hokuto hi! Tell the Minister I'm taking my break now, no I'm not leaving the office, my sister and daughter are here." He swept away before bending down and lifting the two year old in his arms. "Hello my little angel, have you been a good girl?"

"UHUH!"

"Where's Sei-chan Subaru?"

"Down in his office, let's go, I'll take you there."

They reached the ending of the corridor. "Aurors department, please enter your ID number."

"Something new they started?"

"Yes, we've had break-ins recently. Of course it's just an inconvenience to all of us. It took me over a week to memorize my number. We're not allowed to bring them with us for fear of losing them." Subaru paused and turned to the intercom. "7-1-4-2-1."

"Welcome Subaru Sumeragi, come on in."

"This way, come on follow me and make sure you hold her hand tightly it's dangerous down this hallway."

"So you and Seichan are doing good?"

"More or less...he didn't get home until two AM last night."

"You're okay with him doing this?"

"Yes as long as he doesn't hurt anyone I love it's fine."

As they walked down the hallway they heard a familiar voice talking loudly and sounding aggravated with whoever he was talking to.

"I don't care if they have top notch security. Tell them it's the London Ministry of Magic and it's important they get Fuuma Monou on the phone. Don't say I'm his brother calling, tell them it's one of the heads of the Auror department calling. Yes now, NOT NEXT WEEK!" A pause. "Fine give me the phone I'll use my identification number so if anything happens I'll have full responsibility and your neck will be saved." Another pause. "Yes, I want to make a call, my identification number is 9-1-6-1-8. Yes I'll hold on just make it quick and put Fuuma Monou on the phone."

"Fuuma Monou here, how can I help the great Ministry of Magic?"

"You can help by not getting your ass on that broom, what with all the recent attacks lately on Quidditch players, so you stay put until Subaru gets there."

"Wow is that you Seishirou? I've never really heard you sound so professional and unprofessional at once."

"Shut up and do as you're told he'll be there in five minutes."

As soon as the phone hit the receiver he got up and instantly had a small body attach itself to his leg. "HI DADDY!"

"Mystic what are you doing here?"

"Surprise Sei-chan!"

Looking up he saw Subaru and Hokuto standing in the doorway. "Ah Subaru, good timing, you need to head to Germany to find Fuuma and check his broom for curses. Here's the coordinates."

"Seishirou…shouldn't you go?"

"I would but I just got another message for my other job. You'll be fine."

"Fine. Mystic be good for your Auntie Hokuto." Subaru leaned over and pecked his husband on the cheek. "See you tonight."

~#~

A hand gripped the roof and the other pale hand was latched to another hand. "Ah I'm sorry Fuuma, if only I had gotten here sooner, we wouldn't be in this mess."

"I should've listened…this is my fault. How are we going to get out of this one?"

"I haven't the faintest idea."

"I should learn to keep my wand on me at all times, even during Quidditch games."

"It's always recommended to do that, I have mine but if I try to reach it we both plummet to our deaths."

"Then let go...you at least have to make it out alive, my brother would go crazy if anything happened to you."

"Are you blind Fuuma? He'd go crazy if anything happened to you too."

"Perhaps; but if anything happened to you, I'd have to answer to both Hokuto and my brother so I'd be as good as dead."

"Well then I'm joining you…my hand...my hand's slipping…please, you have to introduce me to your sis—" Subaru felt a rush of cool air right as his hand slipped and let go, sending them both plummeting to the ground. He was partly lying. He had met Kotori once of course; but being true to his word he hadn't revealed her to anyone else...yet.

Instead of hitting the ground, Fuuma found himself in on top of a mountain of trash bags. "Really? Why me?"

Subaru hit a soft surface as well, though when he landed he didn't smell trash like Fuuma did. "This scent this is...Illusionary Dreams...but how...?"

"It's nice to see you too Subaru."

"Well a big hello to you too Seishirou, I'll thank you for breaking my fall, but into trash, really?"

"You deserve it for not listening to me. I told you to stay away from the godforsaken broom."

"What I don't understand Sei-kun is how you found us…I thought you had 'work'."

"I did. I'm not sure myself, I was on my way to work when I got the feeling to come here."

"It was because of me, I know how much Subaru and big brother mean to you, bigger brother. Being dead and all I can wisp as fast as a Patronus. I couldn't let them die, even if Subaru did want to meet me."

Amber eyes went wide and so did honey brown. What little color was left on both of the brothers' faces was drained from it. "…..Kotori?"

The ghost girl raised her hand and waved. "It's me. I'm the youngest one in the family and I'm watching over all of you. I need to get going, I'm sure we'll meet again soon. Maybe when the children are older they can meet me too! Be good! Especially you big brother! When you're told to do something do it! And you bigger brother…you're not as alone as you think."

"Come on Subaru…we need to pick up Mystic…the mood she's been in lately she's probably driven your sister up the wall by now." An arm wrapped around his waist and amber eyes turned to Fuuma. "You should go home and see your husband and children. To hell with the sports department."

"Yeah…I'll do that…" Fuuma frowned. He hated working for the Ministry but it was the only way to help Kamui with the twins.

~#~

After both Subaru and Seishirou landed back in Diagon Alley, Subaru felt lips on his cheek. "Go on, I need to finish the job. Besides, didn't Hokuto say she had new robes for you?"

"Alright don't be too long." Subaru walked into his sister's loft, finding the place covered in what appeared to be cake flour.

"Hokuto?"

"I'm back here; Mystic is taking a nap for now so I'm working on your robes; speaking of, get in here so I can pin them."

"SUBARU HOLD STILL! It's your celebration party next week, you need to have the finest dress robes!" Hokuto paced around her twin pinning up his new dress robes. Mystic had just woken up from her nap and yawned, still covered in flour.

"I should get going, she needs a nap."

"Please do let her finish, although he looks charming as is, right Hokuto?"

"WAHHH SEI-KUN!"

"DON'T FALL OFF SUBARU, ALL MY HARD WORK WILL BE RUINED!"

"I'm sorry but…it's embarrassing."

"Oh Subaru, you should be used to your husband's antics. Jeez Sei-chan, I thought I told you to make an HONEST BRIDE OUT OF HIM!"

"WAH HOKUTO!"

"Oh for heaven's sake, take him home, I can finish the rest of this without him."

A soft chuckle.

"Come on dear."

~#~

Later when they were back home, Mystic looked at both of them with wide green eyes. "Daddy? Papa?"

Subaru looked from the closet as he hung up his cloak and Seishirou peeked over the book he was reading. "What is it sweetie?"

"Winter has a little sibling coming soon and Kousei and Ember have each other, how come I don't?"

"One day you will sweetie, come on, bath time!" Mystic gladly took her papa's hand and let him lead her to the bathroom that was joined to her bedroom.

Neither of them seemed to hear the book hit the ground or see the amber eyes widened in shock.
