Chapter 8 The Truth Unfolds
Yuuri's POV
Yuuri…?
I opened my eyes, hoping to see Wolfram's expression when I held him in my arms, but what I saw wasn't near what I had expected. I was floating in a dark dimension I didn't know I had entered. No one was to be found in the weird place I was in. I was alone, all alone. I decided to wander around, trying my best to figure out where I was and why I was here. I tried to escape this unusual world but there was no exit to be found. I got tired of floating around and thought it was best to retreat for the moment. As I was resting, a ray of light had appeared in front of me. There floating in front of me was a tall blonde man with blue fierce eyes. He resembled Wolfram but he was more muscular and was more manlike. I guessed he was the blonde's father or something but I would find out soon enough.
"You are indeed Yuuri Shibuya, am I correct?" he questioned.
"Yes, I am… Who might you be kind sir?" I replied.
"It may be hard to believe but I am Shinou, the Great One…"
"Shinou huh… Where am I? Why was I brought to this strange place?" I asked. I was somewhat relaxed at the moment, it was awkward.
"You are deep within your mind. I, Shinou, have summoned you here…"
"What do you want from me?"
"This boy…" He suddenly raised his right hand and a portion of the violet sky formed an image. To my surprise, it turned out to be Wolfram.
"He has a great responsibility and an important value in your world… As the people on earth say, he is my favorite son…"
"I don't understand… If this is about Wolfram, how come you called me? Why didn't you tell him this yourself?" I suddenly felt a soft squeeze on my left shoulder but I ignored them at the moment for it wasn't important now.
"That is because I am not able to contact him… His heart and soul is being sealed by the negative feelings deep inside him. He has given up all hope and somehow he has gained energy far greater than mine… If we are not able to convince him that he still has a chance to start over and soften his heart, your world will be in danger…"
"What do you mean when you say 'danger'?"
"Your world's state depends on the happiness of this boy… You will see what I'm talking about soon…"
"But why are you telling me this?"
"Because you are his only hope… You had said yourself that you wouldn't let him get hurt again… You are the only person who can save him and your world… Don't forget that…" He said slowly fading away.
"But wait! I still have many more questions to ask you!"
"I will contact you again in the future… For the meantime you have to figure out things yourself… Remember what I said to you… Goodbye for now…" He stated before he entirely disappeared.
I was about to chase after him but when I blinked my eyes for a short second, the dark dimension faded away and I was back in the present time. I was back where I belonged. I figured that time had stopped when I was brought deep inside my mind where Shinou had called me. I didn't know if that was for real or if it was just all a dream. I shoved away my thoughts and realized that I was at the moment I was expecting earlier, the moment when I find out the other boy's reaction. I wasn't sure if his expression would be a positive or negative one but whatever the result, I need to avoid him getting hurt no matter what. The fate of the world is counting on me, at least that's what I believe. Well real or not, I'm still going to help Wolfram open himself up to others. For his sake and mine…
Wolfram's POV
The warmth of his tight embrace on me was indescribable. It was filled with care and gentleness, there wasn't anyone who could make me feel like this again. I moved my head to face Yuuri but something was different about this picture. I gazed at him and noticed that his eyes were those of a person who was in a coma or something. He was still breathing but he wasn't present mentally. What was wrong with him? I looked around and everything was still, no one was moving. I couldn't even hear a single breath from the other people in the room. I squeezed Yuuri's left shoulder since I was frightened at the sight I was seeing. I didn't know what was happening but I remember that this had happened before in my childhood. I just couldn't recall clearly what it was. I cuddled up in Yuuri's arms again and rested my head on his left shoulder. Something was definitely wrong…
Everyone despises you Wolfram… A sudden voice told me, apparently it was a male, and it was the sound of pure evil.
Who are you?! Show yourself! I shouted in my mind, it was stupid of me but I knew I wasn't imagining things!
My identity isn't important… You must release your inner negative power Wolfram… He continued.
What the hell are you talking about?! I growled. What was I to do? This stranger is talking about nonsense!
You will find out soon enough Wolfram… Very soon…
The voice had vanished after that last sentence. What was he talking about when he told me to release my 'inner negative power'? I don't commemorate having any bizarre source of energy and I'm certain my parents don't have any peculiar powers, I think. I knew my mother didn't have anything special about her, she was a normal woman. Well except for her cheerfulness and her habit of finding free love all over again. But that was a different story with my father. He was a mysterious man and my mother barely talked about him. The only thing she told me was that she was attracted to him with his charm and good looks, I got that from him, and that he left before I was born. His past and history was never known, not even my mother knew.
Thinking of my father made me really curious on his whereabouts after he had left us. Was he even still alive at this very moment? I sighed and closed my eyes for a minute. This was giving me a headache. I opened my eyes and lifted my head. I noticed a journal on the bed across me. Where did that come from? Anyway, it was none of my business. I wanted to ignore it but I couldn't neglect it, my curiosity got the best of me. I took my eyes off the notebook for a split second and glanced at the window to my right, I felt someone watching me. When I turned my head to look at the diary again, I saw it floating in the air in front of my face. I was startled at first but I managed to calm down. I analyzed the book and it was all dusty and dirty. It must've been ancient because some of the edges were ripped and due to the scratches on the cover page.
Usually I would get disgusted upon spotting filthy objects but as I examined the front cover of the journal, something had convinced me that this wasn't junk or just any notebook. At the bottom of the cover of the book was a small label with obscure symbols written on it. I scanned the characters repeatedly in my mind, something was very familiar about it. I kept trying to encode these figures but I just couldn't. As I was attempting to reminisce the meaning of these odd writings, a flash of light abruptly emerged in my head. A past memory was presenting itself mentally in front of my eyes. How and why was this happening?!
A young boy with blonde hair and green emerald eyes was sitting on a chair with a desk in front of it. It had papers with writings unknown to the human world and several books piled on it. Assisting him with his studies was a woman with long light turquoise hair and pale blue eyes. They were learning how to read the handwriting and penmanship of their culture.
"Let's see how much you learned from our progress."
She was reaching for something from the pile of books on the desk and pointed at the tag on the bottom.
Isn't that the book that came forth before me?!
"What does the label on this notebook say?" She asked.
The blonde child squinted his small cute green orbs and tried his best to read what his teacher was pointing at.
"Ce-Cedric… Bal-Baldamer… Wait! No! I meant Baldemar!"
The woman couldn't help but giggle on the boy's answer.
"Continue…"
He squinted his eyes again and pursued on reading…
"Ummm… Von… Bi-Bie-Bielefeld…"
"And all together it reads?"
"Cedric Baldemar Von Bielefeld!"
She smiled. "That's correct."
Cedric Baldemar Von Bielefeld..?! That's my father's name! Was this my father's journal?!
A/N: Okay… That was random… Sorry if the chapter was short and if the plot changed… It's just a temporary chapter since I just can't think of anything anymore! The idea just popped into my head and I'm just writing everything im thinking… The part about Wolfram's father is fiction and was only created by my imagination… His name Cedric Baldemar originated from German and Welsh. Cedric came from the Welsh name Cerdic meaning "kindly and loved" and Baldemar is the German name meaning "princely". Anyway if this chapter is confusing, please bear with me! Everything will be clear soon… But if the new plot and current chapter don't satisfy you readers please tell me… I'm thinking of changing it anyway… I just hate going through writer's block…-- Till next time! Note: To everyone who's reading my other fic, I'm sorry the delay… I haven't got enough ideas to finally end it but I've written some things… I'll finish it and I swear I will!
For now, let me explain a little… Yuuri and the others have been reincarnated into normal human beings due to reasons I will tell in further chapters… The important thing is Gwendal, Conrad, Yuuri and Wolfram are still the keys to the four forbidden boxes… Well the key's effects are still destructive even without the boxes… But the effects can only be activated fully when the people who act as the key decide to give up all hope and become miserable beings… Of course Wolfram is the only person who's feeling that temporarily… That's where Yuuri comes in… Shinou informs Yuuri about Wolfram's case as his past fiancé… He must help Wolfram realize that he has people who care for him and prevent him from being sad… If he fails, the sake of the world will be in danger…
That's about it… If you're still confused, feel free to ask questions either through reviews or private messages… Note: I will renew this chapter if the majority is to change the chapter and keep the original plot… Please tell me what you think so I can write properly again… I'm really going through a severe writer's block… Arigatou… By the way… Happy New Year everyone!
