Chapter One: A day in the life of the Brothers
"Kill me…"
"What?"
"Kill me. Take my life goddammit!"
" Cloud… I can't…"
"Kill me! Let me sleep in peace!"
"I can't!"
"KILL ME!"
"NO! I WON'T! CLOUD STOP! STOP IT PLEASE! DON'T DO IT! I NEED YOU! CLOUD PLEASE! PLEASE STOP IT! I HATE THE BLOOD!"
Another night was filled with terrifying thoughs and piercing screams. Tossing and turning, kicking and bucking, tears mixing into sweat that fell. It was another panic filled night for Vanizostry… it was another medicine filled night for Sora Mizaki.
"Somebody please… save me… SAVE ME! I WANNA GO! I WANNA GO!"
His cries echoed the whole entire house and as his brothers ran and searched for his machines to calm his body and his blood back down to normal, Sora began to cry hard. His fists turned bloody as he pierced his skin with his nails and he drew blood from his lip as his head began to spin round and round the room with voices and images.
"Sora wake up… Wake up Sora… Vanizostry, open your eyes!"
Mindless fighting. Muffled cries. Screams to be let go.
"Go get Huzinatic… GO!"
"Leon, wake him up!"
"GO!"
Leon watched as his brother ran out the room, his brown hair tied back from his face, blue and gray eyes frustrated. He went to Sora's side and he knelt down to the bed level, his knees touching the floor because he was so tall.
"Sora, open your eyes. Wake up."
"Stop dancing… stop singing… stop! You're hurting me!"
"This is working… fuck."
Leon pulled out his cellphone and he dialed 9-1-1.
"Come on… come on… Sora, wake up! Goddammit, I hate this shit!... Hello?... This is Leon again. I need an ambulance right now. He's not waking up. Please... Hurry."
In the small waiting room, the three remaining brothers sat in their pajamas and coats, eyes red and tired.
"Huzinatic… Huzinatic, wake up."
"I am awake."
Huzinatic was Vanizostry's brother. Or in easier terms, Huzinatic was Cloud. His dark blue eyes were sleep deprived and his blond hair was a real mess. His muscular frame was shown through the coat and as he put his manly hands together, he gave the longest yawn that they had ever seen. It was… common, from Cloud.
"Leon, what was he crying about tonight?"
"The old choir and the dancing."
"… Fuck. We need to schedule another therapy meeting."
Leon's ice cold gaze softened as he stared out the glass. One eye was light blue, the other eye was light gray. He examined the two colors in his pocket mirror out of boredom, and a groan escaped his pale pink lips as the colors began to slowly switch sides.
"Leon… Leon… Gunblatzi!"
"What."
"Stop examining your eyes. We're getting jealous."
"They're changing though." he replied with a dull, mono-tone voice.
Demetrius sarcastically rolled his eyes and teased, "Well, duh. They're multi-colored."
"Kamikazetkis… shut up."
Kamikazetkis, or Demetrius, gave a smile to his older brother and he leaned his head back, black hair pulled over his shoulder as he fiddled with the ends and began to think. His light green orbs were sleepy, but he was more awake than anything. A frown soon covered his smile as they all became very serious.
Ten minutes passed by and then Demetrius got tired of the deadly silence and he spoke up.
"How long does Sora have to stay here?"
"Until they call me or until he wakes up." Leon answered and Demetrius then arched his eyebrow and asked another question.
"How do you think that will be?" This time, Cloud answered.
"… An hour or so." Cloud leaned back and Demetrius rested his head on his shoulder as he was the closest thing there.
"I'm drowsy again." He whined.
"No sleep. Open your book from your coat and read to us as practice."
Demetrius nodded and he began to dig into his pockets. A gasp left his lips as his pockets were empty. He began to franticly look to see if there were holes and as he was about to drop to the floor and look, Leon sighed and Cloud just shook his head as Leon pulled the book out from his pocket.
"I have it. Watch your things more closely."
Demetrius nodded his head once more and he opened the book to the page that he had last left off on. Instantly, the words confused him, but he kept on looking until he could understand bits and pieces.
"The… the c-coordin-nates of the g-glacier… h-have… dra…d-dramo-"
"Dramatic." Leon corrected and Demetrius thanked him before he started to read again.
"Dramatic changes to the o…oce…"
"Oceanic." Cloud answered since Leon wasn't showing any signs of doing it. The two were used to guessing the words since they had both read the book twice for one of their classes a year or two back.
"Oceanic life that is un.. un… un-der-seas. Underseas!" He looked over to Leon and Leon just nodded with a soft smile before a smile came up on his lips and he began to read with more confidence, Leon's smile giving him that extra boost to want to learn.
They took turns reading and gave small jokes as Demetrius learned the work and got ready for his school classes. It made their minds at ease and it instantly made time go by much faster. Eventually, Cloud pulled a deck of cards from his pocket and gave the boys a teasing smirk.
"Uno, anybody?"
"Nuh uh! Nuh uh! Dryd'c ykyehcd dra nimac!(That's against the rules!)"
"How?"
"Huzinatic just went, Leon. You're cheating."
Cloud smirked as Demetrius took Leon's cards back, Leon's eyes giving an icy glare that he was already used to. It made people bow down in fear everywhere he went, but to Demetrius… he was harmless.
"My turn." He laid down three cards and instantly Cloud jumped and spoke.
"Uno."
"… Damn." He picked up two cards from the deck and as Leon was about to win the game with his monstrous hand, the door opened as Leon's hand was up in the air, a smile on all their faces as he was about to lay down the final strike of the game and tell them to bow down.
"Cloud Mizaki?" Cloud grew serious and he looked up to see a doctor standing there with a clipboard in his hands.
"That's me." He said sternly and he stood up to shake the doctor's hands before he led them out of the room. Immediately the doctor began to speak to them as they moved down the hall to inform them and keep them up with his stats.
"Sora is doing better now, but he's still in care."
"I see."
"Do we leave him here here, or do we take him home?" Leon asked and looked up to see and hear his answer. He arched his eyebrow and then he said, 'well' as the doctor finally turned to him to speak.
"Leave him here for tonight. He needs one more treatment." The three stopped behind the doctor and then looked through the glass that was there. Demetrius went closer and he put his hands to the glass as he stared in sadness and in slight awe.
"Huzinatic, fryd'c kuehk uh fedr Sora?(What's going on with Sora?)"
"A treatment."Cloud answered softly and then he put his hands in his pockets and turned to look at Sora more fully with the others.
The sweet brunette that they all loved to death had different cords attached to different parts of his body and two of his fingers were held in a white thing that had a small glow coming from it that was red. His heart pulse was on the monitor and as he breathed in an oxygen mask and let it help give him air, he looked filled with pain and full of a secret sadness that nobody would understand. It killed them to see him this way and Demetrius frowned in the glass as they all instantly felt bad for him more than usual.
"Can we go in to see him?" Demetrius asked and he looked at the doctor with sad light green eyes. The doctor nodded and they went inside before looking around the room
"Wow. Different this time."
"Yeah, the last room was a gold color." Cloud went over to Sora and he pulled his hand from his pocket before he put his hand on Sora's forehead and pulled the bangs back from his damp forehead. A soft whimper escaped the bruised pink and purple lips.
"Sssh. It's alright."
Sora remained asleep and Cloud began to hum and sing to him softly as Leon took a recording of Sora's information in a pocket sized notebook. It was as big as his hand. He wrote the date, what happened, the hospital machines used, the the type of treatment that he was under. Cloud picked up Sora's hand and he held it before he raised it to his lips and kissed it gently, his dark blue eyes showing signs of concern and worry for his younger brother. Leon and Demetrius stood next to him and put a hand on his shoulder.
"We should get some sleep. We have to cook Sora's favorite breakfast tomorrow." Cloud nodded and he put his hand back down before he looked at the heart monitor. For some reason… it matched his own heart pace as he was relieved Sora was okay.
Beep… beep…beep…beep…….
Cloud woke up bright and early, his eyes showing signs of not enough sleep and his movements making it certain that he was still sleepy. He got up and he went straight into the bathroom he shared with Leon. It was connected to both of their bedrooms and each of them had a door to enter. He shut the door and he walked through to the other door to see that Leon was still asleep.
"Still asleep… little fucker." Cloud went over to him and saw that a cup of water was sitting there.
"Gunblatzi." He received no answer and he picked up the cup. He dipped his fingers in it and he began to sprinkle Leon's face with drops of water, something the dark brunette hated with a passion.
Leon shut his eyes tight and then he opened one blue eye. He shut it and then he opened his gray eye since the other eye was slightly blurry.
"Get up, Gunblatzi."
"… No." Cloud glared at him as he turned over onto his stomach and put his head under the pillows.
"Gunblatzi, get up."
"I said, 'no.'" Cloud put the water down and sat on him. After a minute of Cloud humming and tapping his arms with his fast fingers, Leon spoke up.
"Cloud."
"Hmmm?"
"… I can't breathe."
"Will you wake up?"
"…"
"Then I'm not getting up." Leon sucked in as much air as he could and then he let out a sigh.
"I'll wake up." Cloud jumped off of him and Leon throw his pillow at his head with means of violence in the speed. Cloud gave a smirk as it hit him in the chest and he rubbed it with a hiss before he gave him a playful glare and went into the bathroom. As Leon began to curse, he started to laugh at the last string of curses.
"You're always angry in the mornings."
"Fuck you; I didn't get any damn sleep last night, I'm fucking tired--get the fuck out of the bathroom, I gotta fucking pee-- move out of my damn way!"
"Vanizostry?..."
"My name is Sora to you."
"So why is the other name on here?"
"Because you people who work here are absolutely, positively… ignorant."
The nurse sighed in annoyance and ran a finger through her hair as Sora looked away in aggravation and he examined the bandage on his two fingers and the white bandage on his hand.
"What happened to my hands."
"From what I can tell, you pierced your skin with your nails. That's why they're not there anymore. We cut them down."
"Oh." The door opened and Sora's light light blue eyes looked up fast to see Cloud and Leon enter the room. Immediately, a big smile came up on his face as he got happy.
"Huzi! Blatzi!" he smiled again as he saw the container of food they were holding.
"We brought you food."
Sora ran a hand through his brown unruly hair and he then looked up and gave another soft smile before Leon went and sat behind him to prop him up so he'd be able to eat without problems."
"Where is Kamikazetskis?"
"Asleep. He made you the whole breakfast and he fed us in the process."
"I have to thank him later. He works really hard to make me food when I'm sick."
The nurse passed Cloud a paper and then she bowed with a soft smile and she left the room to find the doctor.
"Rihkno?(Hungry?)"
"Very." Cloud opened the container and Sora's mouth immediately watered. The boy was always a sucker when food was involved in anything and they constantly used his against him when they wanted to use him for "special" purposes.
"Eggs… bacon… sausage… HAM! He went all out this morning!"
"Hell yeah. That food was off the shit." Sora picked up chopsticks that were inside and he began to eat and savor the food that was there.
"Sora, why do you use chopsticks?"
"I like them better than forks."
"How? Forks are so simple. Chopsticks are all about holding them a certain way."
"True, but I have patience for them and I know how to use them perfectly." Sora held up a piece of sausage to Leon's mouth and Leon took half before Sora ate the other half and he looked at the door in thought.
"What's today?"
"It's Sunday." A gasp escaped his mouth as he remembered something very important.
"Oh my fucking god; we missed church!"
The two boys looked at Sora's panicked face and were instantly confused.
"Why are you so worked up? We can just go next week."
"We promised our S.S. we would go!"
The two faces paled instantly as the memory of promising hit them and Sora ate faster as Leon called Demetrius to get ready and Cloud ran to the car to start it up. Sora got up from the bed weakly and he began to pull things away from his body as he tried to get ready as fast as possible.
"We have to make it back to the house in ten minutes!"
"Well, let's move!" Leon made sure Sora was nicely patched up before he scooped him up into his arms and proceeded to run from the room. "God, I hope we don't get in trouble."
"It's not gonna happen... we're screwed."
"FUCKING GODDAMN BITCH!"
Sora winced as Cloud slammed the door shut angrily and he turned around with a glared pointed at nobody in particular. Demetrius and Leon were filling out papers on the stairs and their S.S.(Social Service) worker had just given a punishment.
"I can't be-fucking-lieve that we have to be in the house by eight thirty! And all because we missed church! (Growl) Fucking Ansem and his fucking punishments. Fuck him."
Sora frowned and he bowed his head as he said, "I'm sorry."
"If I didn't have a bad dream, this would've never happened."
"Don't blame yourself, Sora. It's alright. We'll just hang out until our usual bedtime, okay?" Sora nodded as Cloud tussled his hair and gave him a re-assuring smile. Leon finished the papers and he took Demetrius' sheets before Cloud put them into an envelope and stepped out onto the front porch.
"Son of a bitch hit the mailbox again?! I just fixed the damn thing!"
Demetrius and Sora began to laugh as Cloud growled and put the envelope in the second mailbox by the door and stepped back inside the house.
"What are we going to do today? Sora's fine now, so I'm itching to do something that involves him."
They looked at each other and Leon immediately grew a smirk. Soon, Demetrius grew a smirk and after a few seconds Cloud got one on his face as well. Sora was confused as they chuckled together and he scratched his head.
"I don't get it." Leon gave a sigh and placed a hand on his head.
"Baseball."
"Oh."
"Look at the sexy boy on bat! Let's see what this little one can do!"
Sora swung a baseball bat all around his body and as he got ready, he moved into a stance that Cloud had taught him when he was younger and Demetrius got ready to pitch. It was a three-on-one, and Sora was losing by only one point.
"Ready, Sora?"
"Let it rip!" Demetrius threw a fast ball and Sora closed his eyes as he swung. CRACK! Sora opened his eyes and he saw that he had hit it. He dropped the bat and began to run towards first base.
CRASH!
They all froze as they heard a glass break and when the alarm came on, they picked up the bat and bolted straight into the house. They all went by to the windows to see what was going to happen, curiosity taking all of them over. Sora was under Demetrius as he opened the curtain a little, Cloud and Leon standing on both sides and peering outside.
"Oh shit!"
"What?"
"Dryd fyc Mr. Rush's lyn!"
"That was his car?!"
"Yeah!" The four began to laugh and then fell silent once the owner of the car acme outside.
"Look. He's so pissed." Cloud snickered. Sora blinked and his eyes were noticeable as Mr. Rush turned to them.
"He can see the color. Shit." Cloud put his shades on him and they watched as he pulled at his hair, laughter going around at his violent curses. Cloud smiled at more words and then Sora looked up at him with a silly grin.
"Ansem is not going to be happy."
Cloud, Leon, and Sora lay on the roof while Demetrius went to set up their camera. They all put on skull caps with ears at the top and grinned at the types that they had on. Sora had cat ears, Leon had ears of a wolf, Demetrius had rabbit ears, and Cloud had ones of a fox. They all got close and Demetrius and Sora went in the middle of them as Demetrius held up the camera by a rope.
"Alright. Ready?"
"Yeah." He said, 'smile!' and they all gave smiles before the camera flashed.
"Okay, okay. Dumb faces."
Each gave a dumb look. Then a silly look. Then an evil look. Than an ice look.
"Last face. Just… be yourself. Make a face to show exactly what you're feeling deep inside."
… In that picture… nobody smiled.
Sora lay next to Cloud as they all camped out in one of the big guest rooms. Leon and Demetrius set up the over head projector before putting on a movie with the DVD attached to it. The all laid down and turned it on as they got ready to be entertained with the comedy that was coming up. After watching and laughing, they turned it off and they were drowsy from their giddiness in the movie.
"Tomorrow is school."
"We know." They put one up hand up and then put them close together.
"Who's going to do it tonight?" Leon asked.
"It's Sora's turn." Sora nodded his head and got up before they all sat cross-legged and made a square amongst themselves. Sora let out a soft sigh and they all were soon serious.
"Fa meja vun aylr udran, fa tea vun aylr udran, fa vekrd vun aylr udran, fa mea vun aylr udran.(We live for each other, we die for each other, we fight for each other, we lie for each other.)"
"Dra byld fa ryja vun meva(The pact we have for life)."
"Fa bnuseca alyr udran dryd fa femm hajan ajan keja eh du dra uidceta. Fa nasyeh uha cdab yrayt du draen meac.( Whe promise each other that we will never ever give in to the outside. We remain one step ahead to their lies.)"
"Dra bnuseca fa gaab van adanhedo.(The promise we keep fer eternity)"
Sora began to sing softly and they bowed their heads as his soothing voice went through. Sora sighed after he stopped and he sat down like his brothers were doing before. Cloud pricked his thumb with a thumb tack and then he drew blood. They went one by one, Sora hesitating the most. They squeezed it and then they let it drop onto a white cloth.
"We'll wake up and burn it in the morning."
They all laid down and then they fell asleep, their minds set on locking their emotions in the morning.
R.S. : So... whadda think?
