A/N: I'm just about to pull an all nighter, provided my teachers don't catch me, and if they do… don't know… (sweatdrop) Any way for all you YYH fans who've seen Hiei's past you will know where this chapter's format came from.
Disclaimer: I own nothing!
Pairing: Yuki/Tohru, Kyo/Tohru, Akito/Yuki, Kagura/Kyo, Seto/Tohru, Yuki/Motoko, Hiro/Kisa

Chapter 5: (That Dream Again) Born Into Emptiness
"I hope you enjoy your nightmare, as much as I enjoy mine."
Seto bolted up right, panting. After a minute he sighed and fell back onto the bed "that dream again"
"Seto ,meet your new baby brother, Mokuba." He said, smiling all the while. Seto peeked over the crib, and smiled at the baby boy that looked up at him, The baby in turn started to laugh. The boys' mother stood in the door way, she laughed also, the father joining in shortly afterwards, and then the brown haired boy, a smiling happy family. But it was not meant to be.
"I want them gone, both of them, but leave the children, make them watch, make sure the elder boy sees. Then one of you bring him to me, the rest of you gather some of the boy's things, and be ready to take them to the orphanage." Akito said, playing with the little bird the entire time.
Seto shook behind the screen panel, He could tell Akito knew he was there. And so he made a ran for it, he had to get home before those men got there first.
"Mom, Dad! Akito's sending people to kill you!" The young boy screamed at the top of his lung when he got home. His parent's faces paled considerably. At that moment there was a loud knock at the door. The boys' mother ushered them up stairs.
But they never made it all the way up, before the front door slammed open, and before the very eyes for the two children, their parents were attacked and killed.
And for the younger, the world faded into black, he would never remember, but the elder would not be so lucky.
"Tell me Seto, why did you knock out your own brother, why would you hurt him like that?" Akito asked, his eyes on the bird of his finger, rather than the younger boy who was being held captive before him.
"He should not have to remember. He just turned two yesterday!" The six year old shouted angrily, tears for sorrow, anger, and frustration streaming rivers down his cheeks.
"He will be to young to remember, he would have forgotten in time, but you did was unforgivable, you hurt you baby brother, your only real family. Maybe as punishment I should take him away from you." Seto looked shocked at these words.
"or better yet. You must stay with him, you may not allow him to be adopted without you, or else…"
"Or else?"
"Or else I'll doto him the same I did to your parents" Akito snapped, then regained his composure "by the way, you can be adopted by someone different, but he can't" Seto looked horrified. "Take him away!" Akito barked.
Two surly men came, and started to drag the smaller boy off. "Wait, just a moment." Akito said, as an after thought. He slowly walked over toward Seto. Akito put his head near the six year olds face and said "Goodbye Seto Sohma, I hope you enjoy your nightmare as much as I enjoy mine"
Seto Bolted up right, panting. After a minute he sighed and fell back onto the bed "that dream again"
To Be Continued…
A/N: OK so I got tired and went to sleep, but I did finish this within a twenty-four hour period of the other chapter. That's something. I might actually have three to four chapters to upload when I get back. Cool, no? I'm sorry this one is so short, but I was half asleep when I wrote most of this, and looking back, I think it looks really good, I'm sorry for the shortness. GOMENNASAI!
