FATE
Summary: Omi never wanted this to be like this. Never wanted to kill his family. Never wanted to watch his friends suffer one by one but it seems he may not be able to help it. So, he gathered his last strength and wished to change the past even if the past might come to hurt him. Yaoi AxO

He walked down the streets of Tokyo, his black coat hanging loosely in his hand. The light of the afternoon sun hang up in the sky making him savor what little heat he can get despite the usually cold climate of December and watching as other people do the same.
"How is school, Omi? I trust everything is going well?" His father asked, voice echoing on his cell phone.
Omi smiled. "Hai, otousan. We had a surprise test today but fortunately I have already reviewed the contents before and got a passing grade."
"I see."
The voice stopped, small silence filling the other end of the line.
"An-?"
"It went fine, otousan." Omi answered dutifully. "Kawasaki-sensei said that everything seems to be doing much better lately." He paused. "Would you be coming back to Japan anytime soon?"
"Hai. I would only have to finish a few things here in Germany and I'll be free to go back."
Omi bowed his head. "Then I'll be waiting Otousan. I'm sure we'll have lots of fun once you go home. In the meantime, - he dropped down, raising his hand to help a fallen girl – "Are you alright, Miss Michiru?"
Chapter Three
"Mount Takagami?" Omi asked, looking at the familiar girl sitting in front of him in a cafe. "You wanted to know if I know how to get there at this time?" He looked at her carefully. "Can I ask why, Michiru-san or is it something private?"
Michiru shooked her head. "Ah no. I'm sorry. It's not really private or anything. It's just-" she looked down. "I just promised to go there to meet someone. I didn't mean to bother you."
"Oh. It's nothing at all, Michiru-san." Omi interjected. "As a matter of fact I'm going there myself to do take care of some things." He paused, putting his hand in hers. "It's just you look like you were very worried and agitated over something when you were running earlier. Is there anything at all I can do to help?" he asked looking at her in concern.
"No." she answered softly and Omi squeezed her hand. Before she said anything else, though, they heard a shout and they turned to see a tall man walking his way towards them.
"Michiru!" the man called out, face anxious. "I didn't mean to make you scared. I just wanted to help you."
"Akiko!" Michiru acknowledge the new presence in surprise before her gaze softened. "I'm sorry too. I got scared. Like you said, we should be in this together." She stood up, standing in front of him and matching his gaze.
"Miss Michiru, is everything alright?" Omi interrupted, making Akiko turned to him in confusion.
Michiru nodded. "Hai. Arigato for your help Tsukino-kun but I'm fine now." She gestured to the new attendee. "This is my friend Akiko-kun, by the way. We just have a little disagreement earlier and well I'm sorry I made you guys worry."
"Nice to meet you. Tsukino-kun." Akiko greeted him. "I guess from what she's saying I should thank you for looking after her when I wasn't here."
Omi shooked his head. "Oh. That's okay. I was just in the area when I saw her fall down. No need to thank me. Anyway," he pointed to a car parked by the street. "If Michiru-san is still interested, I can give you a ride to Mount Takagami since I'm going there myself."
They looked at him hesitantly but Omi insisted and after that, they found themselves traveling together towards their destination. They rode in silence for a couple of hours before finally stopping on a small log cabin by a hill. A small van sat parked beside it, covered in a little bit of snow, but otherwise the area itself appeared deserted.
"Is this it, Michiru-san, Akiko-kun?" Omi asked as they dismounted. "If you don't mind me asking, are you sure you don't want me to wait for you instead? I don't seem to see a lot of people around here."
Akiko shooked his head. "No that's okay. I've already called my friends and they would come pick us up later."
Michiru hesitated before agreeing. Looking once more at the sight of the cabin, she thanked him again before starting to walk towards the door of the cabin with Akiko in tow.
There was a bang and Michiru screamed. She found herself, falling instinctively closing her eyes for a second, before finally gazing up at the sight of a brown haired youth.
"Ken-san!" Michiru exclaimed in recognition as she tried to calm her heart beat.
Akiko frowned, looking at her questioningly. "Do you know this guy Michiru?" he asked, helping her get back on her feet.
Michiru nodded before turning her attention to the youth who was gazing at them in confusion while alternately balancing pots of plant in his hands.
"Eh? If it isn't Michiru-san from the shop. What are you doing here?" Ken asked before he found himself being shoved out of the eye by another person.
"Are there here yet, Ken-ken?" asked the newcomer who Michiru identified as another worker from the shop.
Ken snorted. "Not yet Yoji and don't call me Ken-ken! You know how I dislike that name!"
"Maa Maa. Don't stand here then and try to scare my future important guests then." Yoji stated opening the door wider. "You're blocking the way!"
"Why You-?"
"Ano…" another voice interrupted, making them stop. They all looked up, finding Omi standing not so far away from the porch. "I don't mean to interrupt but you wouldn't happen to be the owners of this place, would you?" He pointed to the skies where small flakes of ice started to come down. "I was going to leave but I don't think the weather would allow me to at this point."
Ken and Yoji stared at him before quickly ushering the couple inside. Omi followed them as Michiru and others sited themselves around a small fireplace where a red-haired person who Michiru identified as Aya, another worker sat reading a newspaper.
"What's going on? What are they doing here?" Aya asked, glaring at them.
Yoji shrugged. "Don't know. The only people I invited here were my girlfriends and so far I haven't seen hair or hide of them yet."
"Girlfriends?" Michiru asked confused. "But I—I received a note stating that I should meet…" she trailed off looking at her friend Akiko who remain frowning.
"What?!" Yoji exclaimed surprised. "Don't tell me you gave my note to the wrong person Ken!" He groaned. "I was hoping I could fix the mess up during my vacation!"
Ken rolled his eyes. "Whatever. I told you I don't want to be your messenger for your stupidity but you still insisted." He turned towards Michiru. "Long story short, his two girlfriends found out that he was dating them both and had a row."
"So you were hoping that they will come and you can talk to them about it is that it?" Omi finished amusement in his eyes. "I'm sorry but I don't think a mere talk would fix that kind of mistake Yoji-kun."
Aya narrowed his eyes. "And who are you again?" he asked, crossing his arms. "You seem to act familiar with us (hint: they are Japanese) but I don't think we've even introduced ourselves yet."
Omi blinked at him innocently. "Oh how impolite of me. I'm sorry if I forgot to introduce myself earlier, Aya. I'm normally isn't this horrible of a character." He stated, extending his hand. "You can call me Omi-chan."
Yoji grinned. "Nice to meet you then Omi-chan!" he caught the extended hand in a handshake ignoring Aya who continue to stare at the blond. "Don't mind him. I'm afraid he hasn't been taught manners before either."
Ken grimaced. "And I suspect you wouldn't be either because I don't think you have that long to live to be taught any." He stated gesturing to the redhead who was now glaring at him.
"Ano---" Michiru started, biting her lip. "Please don't fight. I'm sorry if I accidentally ruing your vacation. Omi-kun and Akiko-kun were only accompanying me that's why they are here."
Akiko nodded before breaking his silence. "She's right. Speaking of which, I think it's time for us to go anyway before it gets too dark."
"I don't know…" Ken said glancing at the small flakes falling outside the window. "The weather seems to be going in a bad direction. Why don't you guys stay for a while instead? It's because of Yoji that you guys are stuck here anyways."
"Hey! Hey! This isn't just my doing you know!" Yoji complained. "You were the one who was supposed to deliver the notes anyway."
Ken sniffed. "Well you are the one who decided to date to women at the same time you know. Naturally, everything is your fault."
Omi smiled. "Then we'll be happy to stay for a while then."
Aya stood up. "I'll go and make us some tea."
A/N: Nope. It was actually violets in the English version now that I have seen it again. However, after looking up its definition, I think I like my flower for the story better. Also to answer one of the other questions, you have to remember how old Omi was at that time of kidnapping and imagine someone even if that someone is a prodigy and an assassin who just *pause* then again, should I be telling you this.*evil grin* Be patient but for just a hint: Omi was NOT his real name was it? Why do you think his family calls him that? Thanks for the reviews!
