(First thing first, my computer's been acting a little funky, so I can't guarantee very many updates. The good thing, is that I can type the chapters and access the internet so, hopefully I can give you all what you want. Another good thing, is that I've finally beaten Final Fantasy 8, so I'll try to update more.)
The Demon Lord, Haruko-Chapter Twenty Two
The night passed slowly, almost as if time stopped completely.
Todd noticed the streaks of lightning from the bedroom window. He could not sleep, not tonight at least.
Another dream had occurred in Todd's mind, however, it was not as chaotic as the last ones.
The dream plays itself with Todd at the age of five or six. He is sitting in some home, he has no clue who the house belongs to or where it is located.
Like the past ones, Todd felt as if he was in the dream as well. However, his current thoughts and the thoughts of his child self entangled.
His child form continued to excite about seeing his brother for the first time.
Todd had been surprised at the moment. He had no family, nor had any siblings. The only person he had ever thought of as family was the elderly woman he lived with for a time. Now that he thought about it, he was around the age of seven or eight, after the current dream occurred.
Todd sighed. "I know I have parents, but could I have had a family before I was orphaned? Who would give up their son?" he thought as he grasped his face.
Unfortunately, the dream ended with his child self wandering outside.
Todd continued to wonder about the dream until morning came.
Clive grabbed his coat from the coat rack as Gallows limped behind him. "Hey, Clive! I can come too, right?"
Clive turned to face the Baskar, pushing his glasses up his nose. "Gallows, your leg has yet to heal, I do not wish to threaten your life."
Gallows scratched his head. "You don't have to worry about me! Look, I can heal it myself!"
Clive stood aside as Gallows cupped his hands around his knee, a faint glow coming from it.
Soon, a green light enveloped his leg. After a few moments, Gallows kicked his leg in the air and grinned.
Clive smiled slightly. "All right then, I believe you can accompany us. Just remember, your life is t stake when we're dealing with Haruko."
Clive placed his coat one and strolled out the door, leaving Gallows to sit back down.
Jet loaded his Airget- Bambh(I don't know if it's spelled right.) and glanced up at the sky.
He squinted, thinking he noticed a dark shape hovering, but he blinked, losing the gaze.
He leaned against the wall as Clive stepped out and turned to him.
"Have you seen our leader around?" he asked as Jet sighed.
"Sorry, I just remember her leaving early this morning."
Clive nodded and walked off to the sheriff's post just as Todd walked out.
Jet glanced around before walking up to Todd as he wandered around the front gate, seemingly in thought.
"Um, Todd?"
Todd turned to Jet as he stopped.
"Well, I gave some thought to what you said and, yeah, I guess anything's possible."
Todd glanced to the ground before looking back to Jet.
"Mr. Jet, have you ever had a dream, but it's not a dream. It's as if you're in the dream, but you're not."
Jet squinted. "Yeah, I have."
Todd closed his eyes. "All right. However, were the dreams normal, as if they were placed in reality?"
Jet nodded, causing Todd to glance around.
Clive entered the sheriff's post to see a young man speaking with the sheriff.
"So, you haven't seen a boy, around the age of fifteen? Blue hair, with brown eyes?"
The sheriff shook his head, confirming he had not seen a boy of that description.
The man turned, a samurai sword strapped to his side. "All right then, thank you."
He wore a black shirt with a green jacket over it. Long black pants covered his legs as he wore brown boots. A crimson glove covered his right hand.
Dark brown hair fell to his shoulders as he walked past Clive, exiting the building.
Clive watched him as he left, thoughts flowing through his mind.
"Todd? Is he looking for Todd?" he thought as he glanced at the closed door.
Jet spotted the young man exiting the sheriff's post. For some reason, he seemed vaguely familiar.
Todd noticed the man as well, his gaze making contact with that of the man.
"That man? Where have I seen him before?" he thought as the man walked towards him.
"Amazing, you're still alive. I was sure you died when the accident occurred. You disappeared, but here you are, I can barely recognize you."
"Excuse me, but have we met?" Todd asked as the man crossed his arms. "Could it be possible you're suffering from amnesia?"
The man closed his eyes. "Yes, we were actually good friends. When you disappeared, I decided to track you down, seeing as your parents were going through a few problems. They thought you were dead, and to think, you've been alive this whole time."
Todd scratched his head. "I... had parents?"
"Of course you did. How do you think you're alive today?"
Todd glanced to the ground as the man grinned.
"I'm not sure if you remember me or not, but my name is Aaron, Aaron Dragio."
Aaron Dragio, the name burned in Todd's head. He knew he had met this person before, he just did not know when or how.
Aaron glanced around the town, his gaze fell upon Jet leaning against the wall, their eyes meeting for a moment.
Aaron's mouth widened a little. "You? Jet Enduro? It's impossible, you can't be alive, you're dead. I know you are!"
Jet stood straight, his mouth widening as well.
