The Reason to Our Life

[Zephel]

Bringing up his laptop, Zephel took a seat on the available small set-up chair there. He had recorded the music from Mia, he had asked Hikaru for the lyrics, he had taken days to edit them all together... and finally, for the finale...

The voice.

He had chose the lighthouse for several particular reasons. It's deserted for one, and it has a nice view of the vast ocean and sky, meeting at the furthest point of his view. Another reason for him is the fact that the gentle wind soothes his pain and calms his mind, automatically making him able to hear his thoughts...and his voice.

After the laptop's opening chime could be heard, Zeph opened the music he just edited and took out the lyrics his brother had written. No matter how much of a nitwit that redhead is, Zeph got to admit, the boy have skills in combining meaningful words together.

With a deep breath and a rather slow exhale, the silver-haired clicked the mousepad to start Mia's edited music, complete with a special microphone that allowed him to record his voice and echoes or double it...

Clutching the lyrics Hikaru created, Zeph doesn't even try to sing as well as he can.....because he's already using his full heart to let his voice flow with the wind. Memories with the other students attended this school clouded his mind as he sings...

You see me sitting here
A smile upon my face
The time has come but you know that it's not too late
There's been too many things
Together we have seen
It's not that hard if we start to believe
And we're not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So please

(CHORUS)
Show me a reason, give me a sign
Tell me the way we fall out of line
Is it today or is it tonight we'll find
The answer to our life

This world is not at ease
We seem to hide the truth
Thinking there’s only so much we can really do
It's up to you and me
To fix our destiny
The jury's here, so let's take the stand
And we're not gonna take anymore
Can we try to erase all the pain
So please

(CHORUS-Repeat)

So tell me why we have to cry, and not try
When there's so many things we can do
To help this troubled world start anew

I need a reason, I need a sign
There's no turning back, I'm here by your side
Is it today or maybe tonight, we'll find
The answer to our life

Show me the way
Give me a sign
Tell me the way we fall out of line
Is it today, is it tonight
The answer to our life

(CHORUS-repeat 2x)

[Kimiko]

Eyuki sat in a small cut out area of rock just below the lighthouse as she watched out. She hadn't expected to hear a rather lovely male voice singing quite nearby. She listened for a minute, before deciding to look for where the sound was coming from.

Eyuki climbed out of her hiding spot and looked around, noticing a familiar backside as she quietly approached, waiting for the song to finish as she smiled at him from behind.

When Zephel finished his song, Eyuki walked a bit closer, keeping a small distance so she wouldn't freak him out too much by jumping right in his face. "Ani-ue!" She called, "It's great to see you again!" She said, smiling sweetly at her elder brother, hanging her clasped hands in front of herself.

[Zephel]

After Zeph finished his rather heartful song, he quickly clicked the laptop's mouse button to stop recording, before hearing a girl's voice behind him. Spinning around, Zeph stared sharply at this girl... Somehow, she looked a lot like him...only her hair is long.

"Ani-ue..." he repeated. Since he suffer from memory-loss, Hikaru had been trying to help him remember his race and family for two years. Zeph still kept the picture Hikaru gave him of the 6 element-siblings. In fact, it's right inside his back pocket...

Reaching in his pocket and pulling out the picture, Zephel's eyebrows rose as he tried comparing the picture and the small girl in front of him, "...Eyuki...?!"

Some flashes of his past seemed to attack his memory again as he vaguely remember he sang a lot to his siblings back when they're really small, "Wh... Eyuki! What are you doing here?" his cold exterior completely breaks as he quickly touched her by the cheek, smiling slightly...

[Kimiko]

Eyuki's smile grew brighter as her elder brother said her name. "I wanted to be with Ani-ue and Hikaru-nii-san!" She said as she hugged Zephel a bit tightly, fully happy.

[Zephel]

Zeph chuckled lightly, amused by the hug. Truthfully, he can't remember much about her due to his lost memories, but that's the least what he wanted to tell his sister.

"Wow, you've grown a lot. How are the others back in Mount Etna?" Zeph silently thanked Hikaru in his mind for giving that sort of info to him every night.

[Kimiko]

"They were doing fine when I left. It had been rather quiet lately, so nothing too big has been happening." She said, smiling at his older brother as she moved back from the hug and clasping her hands together, hanging them in front of herself.

[Zephel]

"Ah, that's good to hear," Zeph nodded before staring at Eyuki, "It seemed now that we're balanced. Three wielders here, three wielders there."

The silver-haired then sighed, though his small smile remained there, "Have you met Hikaru yet?"[/b]

[Kimiko]

"No..." Eyuki said a bit quietly as she lowered her head a bit then smiled at Zephel again. "Do you know where he is, Ani-ue?" She asked, hoping he did.

[Zephel]

"No, but I can ask someone to look for him, Zeph nodded at Eyuki before turning around to face the ocean, place his hands beside his mouth and yell, "ORPHION!!!"

Seconds after that, a large dragon could be seen soaring nearer towards the lighthouse and lands just beside it, 'What is it, Zephel?'

"Sorry to bother you, but can you find Hikaru for me?"

'Of course,' Orphion replied. But before he can take off, he noticed the girl beside Zephel, who looks a lot like his master apparantly, 'Oh? Who is this?'

[Kimiko]

"Wow! Ani-ue, you have a dragon?" Eyuki asked, smiling in pleasant surprise as she moved to standing to the side and slightly behind Zephel, looking over at the dragon. "It's beautiful"

[Zephel]

'Thank you,' the blue dragon takes that comment highly before taking off and started to soar up the sky...

Zeph turned to Eyuki, "Of course. And a fire-lizard. ...And a dog. ....And as you know, a nitwit. Oh, that reminds me, Hikaru is currently battling the evil forces of female seduction right now...so you might want to keep your distance."

Sighing, the last thing he wants after seeing Hikaru hugging Kimiko, Hikaru and Kimiko on a bed together and also the complaints about Hikaru inside the Female Comfort Room, is incest.

[Kimiko]

"Eh?" Eyuki questioned, smiling at Zephel still, a bit confused about his comment on Hikaru.

[Zephel]

Zeph sighed, "Or in a more simpler term.....he has a girlfriend. ...At least, I think so."

And just as he said that, Orphion arrived, carrying Hikaru behind his back.

"What's so important you want me to skip my leaf-hunt?" Hikaru yelled from the dragon...and that's when he saw...

"Y....YUKI-CHAN?!!"

[Kimiko]

"Hikaru-nii-san!!" Eyuki called happily, stretching her hand straight up into the air, waving to Hikaru, smiling wide.

[Zephel]

"Wh...What are you DOING HERE?!" clearly super happy, Hikaru waved at her also....until he tripped on one of Orphion's scaly back and fell off the dragon... Its a good thing Orphion caught him behind the collar with its mouth...

Sighing at his brother's clumsiness, Zeph turned to Eyuki, "You must've remember how pathetically clumsy he is, right?"
