ALL HE NEEDS

DISCLAIMER I don't own any of the characters in this fan fiction but I have the honour to use them… please forgive me if you don't like it.

Chapter one - home

The breeze raffled his hair as it played softly, going from one direction to the other. But the young man was feeling anything but playful as he shifted his gaze towards the moon once again. This was the forth time within the week that he had the urge to just go outside into the night. It was almost as though something or someone was calling him… as though something needed him - or maybe he needed "it".

"Baka, who on earth would need you" Touya mocked himself as he shook the uneasy feelings that where swimming inside of him.

………''''''………

The silvery white hair was slightly moist from the sea air, as the young man leaned against the ship's mast and looked over at the moon, his other half was watching the same moon at that very moment… he could feel it inside. Ever since he got on the boat to Japan four days earlier he had this distinctive yearning inside that cried out for the one he loved. But why now, why after all he had gone through with - with… oh he didn't want remember, not now when he was so at peace, when he felt so complete. Yue closed his eyes against the wind and breathed in deeply as a smile pulled at his pale lips. He is almost home, just a few more hours and he will be in Tomoeda. The only place he had ever felt at home, since all the travelling he had gone through in the past with his brothers Cerberus and Spinel Sun, his sister Ruby moon and his master/father figure Eriol Hiiragizawa.

Three weeks earlier

The sound of a gong vibrated across the mansion, indicating to the angel and the lion that dinner was served. Changing back to their façade, Kero became a small yellow stuffed animal with little wings that held him steady in the air, whist Yue's wings simply vanished, his white attire were replaced by faded black jeans, a grey vest top and his hair pulled back into a neat plait that run the length of his back with a few bangs that fell across his face as he lifted his head from the kneeling position he had finished off after his training was interrupted.

Once they were sitting on the table Eriol announced that they were moving… again.

"But Eriol-sensei, we just got back to England." Kero looked up from his plate, his face smudged with spaghetti sauce.

"Hai, I'm quiet aware of that. But this is the last time we travel." Eriol looked at each one of his creation in turn as they all reacted in their own way to the news.

Ruby Moon and Kero both smiled widely while Spinel and Yue lifted an eyebrow questionably and somewhat irritated by the fact that they had to move yet again.

………''''''………

"Yue… are you alright?" A gentle voice brought the angel back from his reminisce as he snapped up from the mast, upon hearing his name.

"Hai, just thinking… remembering." Yue looked at his sister as she walked out of the shadows that were created by the sails and the deck above.

"Gomen… I didn't mean to disturb you, Yue-kun." The young woman moved to leave but then remembered what she had to tell the younger man. "Eriol-sensei said that we won't be going back to the old mansion because Li-dono is living there with his family, if I recall correctly Eriol-sensei said that his little descendant has moved there recently, and has dropped his attitude quiet a bit since he arrived… maybe you'll drop yours once we settle down, since this is the last time we're travelling." Ruby commented, ignoring the dagger-like gaze that Yue shot at her as she insulted him mindlessly. "Kedo, I will be picking the mansion so don't get any ideas." She added in an attempt to make the atmosphere lighter, but the 19 year old just raised a sardonic eyebrow and walked away. "Gomen!" Ruby called back then pushed her brown hair away as the wind hurled it forward, blocking her view.

………''''''………

The previous year

"I don't see why we have to move so much. What is it that you're looking for?" Yue argued as Eriol announced that they were going to America, they had just returned to England three days earlier from Switzerland.

They had grown up travelling from place to place and that had confined Yue and Spinel into spending a lot of their time training or going for long walks around the parks - or around the city if the area interested them - in the middle of the night; Kero and Ruby spend a lot of their time sightseeing and going on 'adventures' across the city or town where they dwelled for a few weeks at a time, depending on Eriol's instructions. But it was obvious that their need of belonging was beginning to choke the silent, stubborn and mysterious as well as the carefree, optimistic and loud creations that the 27 year old mage brought up.

Eriol looked down at the second oldest of his creations and considered answering the question that had been plaguing him for the past 13 years since he took to travelling and seeking for something… but what he was looking for exactly, was beyond the young man's knowledge. "Ano… I don't know."

The present

He woke up when the sunrays that streamed through the curtains touched his eyes, bringing in light into his dreams and a small pleasant smile to his lips. Touya rubbed his eyes slowly as he walked towards the window; the blue sky looked clear of clouds and that brought a smug grin to the young man's face as he started to plan the day's activities. His father was home today, so the entire family could go out for the day. Touya opened the window slightly before going into his bathroom; 15 minutes later he emerged from the cold shower and was greeted by a warm breeze that entered and danced in the bedroom a few seconds before dying down. Touya got dressed in a pair of jeans with a short sleeve shirt, leaving the top three buttons open, subsequently he left his room after making his double bed and putting the dirty laundry in the basket.

"Good morning, ota-san, kaa-san… kaijuu." He grinned as Sakura frowned at the much hated nickname that her 20 year old brother had given her.

"Ota-san, could we have a picnic today?" Touya asked as he sat down and his mother placed his breakfast before him, before sitting at the other end of the table opposite her husband smiling at her son's suggestion. "Arigatou!" Touya smiled as he noticed his breakfast and began to eat. "Kaa-san this is great" He looked at his mother as he tasted a few bites that he spooned into his mouth.

"Doumo Arigatou Gozaimashita" Nadesiko's smile widened at the compliment.

"I would love a picnic… ota-san, kaa-san could I invite Tomoyo and Syaoran… o'negai" Sakura pouted her lower lip as she pleaded.

"I don't see why not." Nadesiko and Fujitaka replied in union.

"But why the gaki, he'll just ruin the day." Touya moaned almost at once.

"Leave Syaoran alone, he's not a gaki and he will not ruin the day for your information, he'll probably make it better." The 17 year old drifted into a daydream making her parent giggle and her already annoyed brother roll his eyes.

………''''''………

"So what do you think, should we buy this one?" Eriol looked at the four creatures as they stood in the third mansion that they had seen that morning.

"I love it!" Kero and Ruby smiled widely at their master as they turned to face him then at their darker brothers.

"I like it." Spinel admitted as Yue gave a small nod.

"Hai, it's close to the park." Spinel and Yue added as an after thought, bringing a pleased smile to the mage and his other two creations.

Kero turned to his brothers after Eriol left the garden to finish the financial business with the state agent, "The Park?" Ruby who had been looking at the flowers moved closer to her brothers to hear the explanation that Spinel was going to give.

"Hai, the park, it's one of the only places we like to spend time in. You should know that." Yue answered, to much of Kero and Ruby's surprise.

"Hai we know… demo you never choose a place because there was a park nearby." Ruby rubbed her head as she tried to find a distant memory that wasn't there.

"Do you want to go and see Li-dono?" Eriol walked onto the garden as some of the servants began to move the furnisher into the mansion.

"Hai." The four siblings chorused as they moved to follow their master out of their new home, Kero taking his refuge in Ruby's handbag and Spinel taking his in Yue's folded arms.

The Li family lived three blokes away from Eriol's new home so the family decided to walk to their previous home instead of taking the limo; it was almost midday and Kero was getting hungrier as his stomach growled to emphasise the point.

Eriol pressed the newly installed bell that chimed and echoed throughout the mansion, life stirred somewhere in the back of the mansion and a few seconds later the door opened, revealing an aging butler. "May I help you sir?" Wei asked with polishes politeness that never seemed to outgrow the older man.

"Wei-san, is my uncle home?" Eriol returned the equal amount of politeness.

"Of course Eriol-sama." The older man's smile confirmed the recognition as he moved back to let the five visitors inside. Once he closed the door, he led the way as he explained. "The family are going for a picnic with some friends. I'm sure that a few more lunches can be added." Eriol smiled at the new piece of information.

"Eriol-kun!" Meiling run forward and took her cousin in a tight embrace. "Long time no see." She laughed, since she had only met him once in the 14 years of travelling, and that was when he went to China 6 years before.

"It's nice to see you too Mei." Eriol pulled away so that he could breathe.

"Ruby, Kero hi guys" Meiling moved towards the 20 year old girl with a yellow stuffed animal that was licking his lips eagerly. "…Yue, Spinel." She nodded in respect as she noted the two siblings hanging in the shadows of the hallway; they nodded back then continued their hushed conversation with Syaoran, who had just walked down stairs with his mother, whom had resumed into the kitchen and was currently talking with her nephew as they waited for the man of the house.

"So where are your sisters?" Spinel asked warily.

"They're in China, on holiday." Syaoran informed him leaving the black cat with mixed feeling of relief and disappointment.

"They're not staying permanently?" Spinel tried again to gain a little satisfaction.

"Iie, demo they are coming back in about two months." Syaoran smiled and Spinel let his breath out slowly.

"Well two months is not long demo I'm sure that they will be busy when they get back." Spinel tried to reassure himself quickly.

"Hai, and I'm sure they've outgrown their kawaii phase." Yue added sending a 'agree with me' look to Syaoran who shrugged in understanding, and smiled towards the cat unable to voice the lie.
