Lupin the second paced around the small waiting room in Scottlands St. Raphel Memorial Hospital. His wife had gone into labor four hours earlier and here he was, stuck with his overactive eight year old son Ari. Just as he had managed to get Ari out of the wall enclosed fish tank, he thought the gold in the shest was real, the doctor came in holding a pink bundle. Lupin took the newborn from the Doctor and walked over to Ari.
" Say hello to your little sister Yui, Ari. It's gonna be your job to take care of her while your mother and I are working."
"You mean I can't go with you guys anymore?"
The little boy looked very sad. Lupin sat down next to him and gently handed him the baby. Yui, who had been asleep, opened her eyes and smiled up at Ari.
" Someone has to teach her our way of life, Ari. Your mother and I will be too busy to do that. And you won't be alone. Your Aunt Ellen said you could stay with her."
"Will you come back?"
"We always do. The day we don't is the day you're in charge of the family buisness."
10 years later
An eighteen year old Lupin the third sat in his Aunts Scottland home. His sister Yui sat across from him, drapped in black. Earlier that day they had attended their parents double funeral. The great Lupin the second and his wife had been killed in a car crash on their way to see their children. Slowly Lupin stood up and walked towards the door. He stoped when he felt a hand on his arm. He looked down and saw Yui. Her eyes were filled with tears. Lupin thought about how she hadn't cried at the funeral or when they had gotten the news.
"Don't leave me."
"Yui, I have to go. The guys are waiting for me."
Yui hugged him closer as she started to cry. Lupin knelt down and held her close.
"Take me with you."
"You're only ten. You have to stay here with Aunt Ellen."
She sobbed harder. Lupin ran a hand through her hair. She looked so much like their mother. Long black hair pulled back into a ponytail and green eyes with gold flecks in them.
"I'll come back, I promise. When you're eighteen I'll come back and take you with me."
She wiped her eyes and said "Eight years? You promise?"
"Cross my heart and hope to get a blue collor job if I don't."
With one last hug Lupin left.
