Disclaimer: I own no CCS. I also do not own Somewhere over the Rainbow. Period, okay?
Somewhere,
over the rainbow, way up high
There's
a land that I heard of
Once
in a lullaby
Somewhere
over the rainbow, skies are blue
And
the dreams that you dare to dream
Really
do come true
Someday
I'll wish upon a star
And
wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where
troubles melt like lemon drops
And
way above the chimney tops
Is
where you'll find me, and
Somewhere
over the rainbow, way up high
There's
a land that I heard of
Once
in a lullaby
Where
troubles melt like lemon drops
And
way above the chimney tops
That's
where you'll find me, and
Somewhere
over the rainbow, skies are blue
And
the dreams that you dare to dream
Really
do come true
If
happy little blue birds fly
Beyond
the rainbow
Why, or why, can't i?
-Somewhere over the Rainbow sung by Ronan Keating
Evanescent: Short Lived
Chapter III: Six Years
The death of Eriol's parents entitled him to millions worth of assets all over the world, a fact that has served as a magnet to frauds and swindlers disguising as his distant relatives.
But Eriol have no relatives. His parents were both orphans and had no siblings. That his other self knew and has planned out long before it all started.
The day the family lawyer was to read his parents' will and testament a ten year old chocolate haired girl with ruby eyes appeared with all haughtiness known to man clutching a black leather suitcase and a stuffed winged cat.
"Excuse me miss, but who are you?" the lawyer asked with all cautiousness as he adjusted the rim of his glasses.
"My name's Nakuru. Akizuki Nakuru. Upon hearing about my uncle's death my father sent me hear all the way from Germany to make sure all of my cousin's affairs are well taken cared of," she said her chin held up high full of arrogance.
"How are you little cousin of mine?" she said in German changing her tone upon the sight of Eriol who was then confined in a wheel chair.
Eriol gave a small smile, "I'm pretty much better," he answered in the same manner.
The lawyer and the rest in the room were surprised. After the death of his parents Eriol has not uttered a word and here was the lad smiling.
"All documents you need regarding me and my father's relationship with Eriol are here. I had them authenticated before I got here," Nakuru said handing the lawyer a leather suitcase.
"Look Eriol, I brought Suppi with me, isn't he cute?" Nakuru said stretching the face of the winged creature inches from Eriol's face.
The stuffed toy squeaked.
Everyone sweatdropped.
After minutes of silence Eriol burst into laughter like he hasn't laughed for years.
Two hours later Eriol was in a flight to Germany with his cousin and winged stuffed toy only to return to England after six years.
As of the girl in the park, she lived with her mother who started getting depressed after her divorced and her husband's death.
Everyday she would wait for her mother from work who would arrive not until past midnight and not even touch her food and for some strange reason the gap between the two just keep getting bigger.
Things got worst when her mother's favorite cousin died and it came to the point she has to live in the shadow of the dead having to grow her hair long. But she doesn't want to complain, not when it is the only thing she has.
Her only consolation was her best friend and cousin, Sakura Kinimoto, the daughter of her mother's favorite cousin who later became the card mistress with her as the loyal video taping friend.
In many ways more than one she has become a mother figure to the motherless creature. Where she got such instincts no one knows, not when she's close to being a motherless figure as well.
For her the happiness of the ones she loves is her happiness as well.
And her name is Tomoyo. Daidouji Tomoyo.
