Chapter 18- Past Meets Present
"Kyo…."
Who's that…?
"Kyo…."
Kyo opened his eyes, the bright light from outside making him shield them with his arm. "Who's there?" He looked around. Where he stood was in a room that looked familiar, but he couldn't place where he'd seen it before. The room was painted a dull green, a bed on his right a desk in front of him.
"Kyo…"
The voice called again.
"Who is there?" Kyo yelled. He whirled around and there behind him stood himself.
Kyo fell backwards, loosing balance. He sat on the floor looking at himself who was looking back at him. The other Kyo, the look alike, kneeled down to where Kyo now was. "Your so clumsy, no wonder why she fell on you…" His other self said and sighed.
"What are you talking about?" Kyo asked getting annoyed. Who was the she he was talking about?
"You don't remember her do you?"
"Remember who!" Kyo yelled, all he wanted was a straight answer, he didn't feel like playing the guessing game.
"Tohru."
Kyo thought a moment, the name was familiar, but like the room he couldn't place why it was familiar to him.
"Look, I don't know who the hell you are but get out of here!" Kyo yelled and got up. His other self stared at him, curious. "Who are you anyway?" Kyo yelled at the other that looked like him.
"Kane, just Kane." Kane said.
Kyo felt utterly confused, "Why do you look like me?" Kyo asked.
Kane circled him, looking at him oddly, as if judging him. "This might be a little complicated…You don't remember who you are do you?" Kane asked.
"Of course I know who I am, what kind of stupid question is that? I'm--." and Kyo stopped. He couldn't remember his name. Kane sighed, "I thought so."
Kyo was confused more than he had when he first noticed Kane. Who was he? How could he forget something so simple? "What's going on?" Kyo asked unsure if he wanted to hear the answer.
"Your in a comma." Kane said sitting on the bed the was near the two of them. Kyo sat next to him. A comma? How could he have gotten in a comma? What had he been doing to have that as an end result?
"How did I get in this comma?" Kyo asked unsure.
"You transformed into your True Form."
Kyo immediately looked to his wrist, bare now but something didn't feel right. "True Form?"
Kane got up from the bed and paced the floor. "I was sent here to help you get out of it, but they didn't tell me you wouldn't know who you are." Kane said.
Kyo thought a moment, "Who's they?"
Kane stopped his pacing, "That doesn't matter now, what does matter is you getting your memory back and getting out of this comma."
Kyo stared at him, "And how do we do that?"
Kane shook his head, thinking, "I'm not sure, but I have a plan." Kane sat back on the bed. "We need to go through your memories, the ones that you can't remember."
"How do we do that if I don't remember them!"
Kane looked at Kyo, "We need to go far deep in your mind, you wont recognize them probably for a while, but you once lived these. Its just you would need to recognizing them as your own experiences."
