The process of being reborn was hazy, and all Mikage could remember was a deep voice, echoing in the huge abyss in which he was suspended. It was loud, but kind and somewhat familiar.
He also remembered the fact that he could see pink - or was he pink?
The next moment, he saw the world. He was surrounded by pink fluff balls, and a large pink dragon thing. He realised he couldn't talk, and when he tried all he could give out was a 'burupya' sound.
That was weird.
A few days passed and the memories of rebirth were fading rapidly, until he had no recollection of it ever happening. He saw the world with new eyes, the eyes of a newborn child, and was soothed by the sounds around him, familiarising himself with his numerous siblings, his parent, and his environment.
Then they came.
It was faint at first, to his sensitive ears, but his mother perked up and growled, glaring at the sky- more specifically, at the two black spots that were getting bigger.
What happened was fast. One moment, he was lazing under the shade of their home, and the next, he was snatched up, his cries muffled, as he was tucked into somewhere dark and warm. He heard the enraged cry of his mother, and unfamiliar voices. He felt wind, and realised they were in the air.
He was cradled carefully, squashed between two large palms. There were voices, saying things in an unfamiliar language, and he was growing impatient. His face scrunched up, and he took a deep breath.
There was a yell as he was dropped to the floor, and he hopped over to the one who seemed the kindest of those gathered in the room - a guy dressed in white, with soft lavender eyes. He curled up in front of the man, and glared at the other two dressed in black. He heard the man laugh, and flicked his tail playfully.
He looked over the two other men carefully. All of them seemed very familiar in some way, like he had met them before...
Growling, he jumped onto the one with blonde hair, and nestled himself atop his head. Somehow, he felt quite comfortable.
The blonde man grumbled.
He didn't know why the man was running, holding a tray of food of some kind. He had tried taking a little, since he hadn't eaten since his capture, and was starving, but the man had shooed him away. Nonetheless, the feeling of wind in his hair was exhilarating, so he didn't mind that much.
He did wonder who he was going to meet, though, as the man had been smiling quite maliciously at him earlier.
The man shouted something at the people gathered in front of the door, and they immediately dodged as he kicked the door open. Not expecting the sudden tilt in angle, his little paws lost their grip on the man's hair, and he fell into the hands of the mellow, lavender-eyed man. He tilted his head up, and purred. Meanwhile, the man, who smelled like a whole garden, sighed and looked at the room beyond the door, then dropped the little one on the floor, ushering him forward.
His claws made slight clicking sounds as he bounded towards the bed, and jumped on, purring at the boy already seated on it. The boy looked back at him with wide eyes.
"This...?" he asked, and reached over to pet him, running his hands over the scar on his forehead - something his mother said he was born with.
"It's Mikage," the blonde man nodded.
The boy started to tear up, and the little one tried in vain to comfort him, running around in circles and yelling 'burupya' all over the place. Then, determining that the blonde man was the source of the boy's sadness, he jumped up and bit his hand, not relenting even when he was shaken to and fro.
"Wha- Let go! Let go!" the blonde man said, not that he could understand him.
He was once again in the boy's arms, cradled gently but tightly, like the boy was afraid he was going to disappear. To comfort him, the little one smiled up.
"Mikage..." the boy whispered, and smiled.
The little one, Mikage, decided he liked his name.
Especially because of its sense of familiarity.
This is the second and possibly last chapter of Mikage. I realise it gets very confusing cause practically everyone in this are male. Uh, hope you guys could understand, cause I can't do anything about it. (He wasn't named until the end, so...)
And I am aware they are called Fyulongs. Just...Uh? It was suppose to be sort of in Mikage's point of view but not? And just...
Okay I don't know what I'm doing.
Please review for efforts.
