Silverwings of Dream
_____________________________________________________________________
[Prologue]
“IT’S RAINING…AGAIN,” sighed a boy. He was lanky, and tall for his age of 16 years, at 6 foot 7. With piercing blue eyes that, seemed icy enough to freeze you. That by it self was odd enough, but still more was his hair…for it was silver. A silver that shone like cats’ eyes-only whitish not red or green-and almost as if it were made from starlight. Although I do not believe that was his…oddest aspect…for he had an ability, a rare one. Can you guess what it is? No, I suppose not…well then how about a hint! From time to time…he could be seen conversing with animals. Yes, animals, and I suppose you know now. His rare “ability” is being able to “communicate” with animals. So they could understand each other as well as…well us I suppose. But even so, he seemed not to have any human friends. So in a way he was alone…and yet he would always seem happy-to others. But right now, he was sad, as sad as the sky seemed. And as it continued to rain, he sighed, and the sky seemed to sigh with him, as it started pouring even harder. And for the 37th time since it had begun to rain-3 days ago-he wished the rain would stop.
* * * * *
WHY? Why was I born so different? Why am I so different from everyone? Why? And…how is it that I am the only being in this world-perhaps universe-that is like myself in any way? And was born that way? How is it that I can commune with animals and anything that is living? How, WHY is it that I am like this? –sigh-I’m always asking myself these questions, and yet…I never get an answer or…come up with one…-sigh-I wish it’d stop raining…
* * * * *
As the rain continued to fall, he prepared for bed. And as he started to drifted off, the last thing he remembered was hearing the rain pounding and faintly, so faintly the sound of a strange purring, as he finally drifted off to sleep.

[Chapter One: The Beginning]
“WAKE UP! COME ON! WAKE UP!” a voice yelled. “Wake up or we’ll be late!” Rubbing his eyes as he yawned and awakened, the boy asked, “Wuz' goin' on? What’s the hurry! …Saru?” And was answered by a discreet, “Don’t tell me you forgot!? We have a field trip today!” With that the boy was at once completely awake. “A field trip? Oh! That’s right we have a field trip today! Eh?” immediately he noticed that it had stopped raining and quickly dressed and grabbed his things.
On his way down the bus stop he asked his sister if she knew when had it stopped raining? And was answered with, “Uhm, I think it was around 2 or 3 this morning, lucky wasn’t it? Otherwise they’d’ve canceled the trip!” the boy’s replied with a, “thanks Saru, for waking me up too.”
And was brushed off with a plain, “no prob. After all we’d’ve missed the trip, if I hadn’t’ve waken you Kyo! I mean seriously what kind of person would sleep ‘til…Hey! It’s Ari!” and she waved to the girl already standing at the stop. And the girl waved back too, as the two siblings approached the stop.
“Hi Saruka, Hi Kyousuke. I see you see managed to get here on time!” smiled Ari.
“Yeah, no thanks to somebody here,” laughed Saru.
“Hey! That’s not fair Saru! You know I was up late…last night,” replied a blushing Kyo weakly, as the two girls laughed.
And as the bus had just arrived they quickly got on and into the usual seats. As the bus started moving he saw Ari take out her ipod and give an earphone to Saru. As soon as Saru put it on her ear Ari pressed the play button. And they listened as Kyo’s mind began wandering…
* * * * *
He was awake and yet he wasn’t…he was conscious and yet unconscious…
What’s goin’ on!? Wasn’t I just sitting next to Ari and Saru just now!? How’d I end up here! …Did I…black out? …? Huh? W-what is this light! Its…its hot!…but…I-I don’t feel uncomfortable! In fact…In fact it’s kinda nice actually…huh? Who…who’s there!
Prrrrrr…I though you’d neverrr notice me, said an oddly cat-like voice.

_____________________________________________________________________
Who…who are you!?
I, am Nekomizukihime, the cat-like voice purred. In a voice that was quite dramatic.
Ne-Nekomi-mi-mi whatzit?
Prrrr, laughed the voice…at least he thought it was a laugh…
Nekomizukihime, but…you can call me Nekomi
Uh...th-thank you…Nekomi…
Prrr, you are an interesting kit…I believe I WILL watch you…
Eh? Wh-what? Wait…wait! What do mean you’ll…
* * * * *
It was gone, as quickly as the cat-voiced person had come he or she was gone. And he realized he had been staring blankly out the window. As he pondered what had just happened, he heard Saru exclaim, “Oh! I LOVE this song!” And with that she began to sing along with-what he realized to be-the song “Break Away” by the newest singer that he was sure was called Kally or Kelly Clarkson or…something along the lines, and he listened to the two girls next to him sing as he began to relax and for got about the odd
…Dream or vision if he could call it that…
He listened to them as they began to sing the song again,
“ladadadalada ladadadalada ladadadaladadala ladadadaladaladadadalada ladadadaladadala
Grew-up in a small town,
And when the rain would fall down
I’d just stare out my window~
Dreamin’ of a could be,
And if I’d end-up happy,
I would pray…
Tryin’ hard to reach out,
But when I tried to speak out,
Felt like no one could he~ar me…

_____________________________________________________________________
Wanted to belong here,
But something felt so wrong here,
So~ I pray~
I could break-away~
I’ll spread my wings,
And I’ll learn how to fly.
I’ll do what it takes,
‘Til I touch the sky…
And I’ll, make a wish,
Take a chance,
Make a change
And break-away
Out of the darkness,
And into the sun. Well I wont forget all the ones that I love,
I’ll take a risk,
Take a chance, Make a change.
And break-away…
Ladadadalada ladadadalada ladadadaladadala Wanna feel the warm breeze,
Sleep under a palm tree,
Feel the rush of the o~cean.
Get on board a fast train, Try a lotta dare play’n,
Far a~way.
And break a~way

I’ll spread my wings,

I’ll do what it takes,
‘Til I touch the sky…
And I’ll make a wish,
Take a chance,
Make a change,
And break- away
Out of the darkness,
And into the sun. Well I wont forget all the ones that I love,
I gotta,
Take a risk,
Take a chance,
Make a change.
And break-away…
Buildings with a hundred floors,
Swingin’ round revolving doors,
Maybe I don’t know where they’ll take~ me.
But, gotta keep movin on, movin’ long,
Fly a-way, break a-way,
I’ll spread my wings,
and I’ll learn how to fly.
Though it’s not easy to tell you good-bye,
I gotta,
Take a risk,
Take a chance,
Make a change.

Make a change.
And break-a-way~
Break away,
Break, away.…”

And he smiled sure that he heard someone groan in the back of the bus…

[Chapter Two: Trouble’s Awakening]
“…NAKAMURA, KYOUSUKE NAKAMURA”,
droned the voice of a teacher who was taking attendance. Kyou answered as the teacher continued to take attendance. Meanwhile in another place and time there was an ‘elders’ meeting in session…
* * * * *
“…We MUST watch him at all times!” snarled Diomenas. He was lean and well muscled, brown haired, with amber eyes not unlike a cat’s. With a short temper he was younger than 20 turns one of the younger ones attending the meeting.
“Nekomizukihime is already watching him! And be mindful of your tongue Diomenas! Do NOT take us so lightly, or as fools! Many here are turns older than you!” snarled Ulquiora harshly.
He was as lean and muscled as Diomenas if not a tad more intelligent. With hair as dark as night, and eyes as light as molten gold. He was no less younger than Diomenas but he was not as ignorant. Or as disrespectful as Diomenas was being now. But as patient as he usually was he was VERY irate when Diomenas was around.
“Do not quarrel now Diomenas…Ulquiora this meeting is not being just so we can witness your hot tempers flash…” came the quiet response of Gurimjua. He was the eldest of the group many MANY turns older. Even Diomenas was forced to listen to him with a bit of humiliation for not even he, as disrespectful as he was would DARE try to enflame the elder’s anger.
He to was lean but not muscled not that he didn’t, but he was old, his beard had long since grayed, and where he was once well muscled he was now wise. With silvery-gray hair, and eyes as blue as the sea. He was by far the most patient of patient people, he was very wise and very

intelligent. But now…Ah how his bones ached…to be young again. So much life and vigor…curse this old body if I had been younger I’d be able to move around MUCH easier…oh? Ah yes the boy, the boy…
He did not wish the boy any ill…but should something arise…no, no he would not use force…. he hoped that he would not have to…. he did not want the boy to think ill of them either…but…
“We do not want to quarrel amongst ourselves…”, continued the elder. And we do not want to make a bad impression on the boy should there be problems that suddenly bring him back… thought Gurimjua.
“…I apologize for my rude behaviorism…elder Gurimjua”, apologized Ulquiora. And after several nudges and finally a poke Diomenas to, apologized.
“Fine!”, hissed the unhappy male. “…I…apologized as well…”, was the choked out mumble from Diomenas.
“…*sigh* So long as you do not bicker again…”, came the worn-out reply. He was tired, so tired of this…*sigh* when would the constant bickering end?
* * * * * *
What was going on! It just suddenly started…snowing! It wasn’t anywhere close to freezing either! What the heck was going on!
“…ura…Kyousuke! Stop daydreaming and get on the bus! They’ll leave you behind!” came a familiar voice yelling to him.
“Ari? Wha-Holy sh- uh wait for me!” called Kyo as he just managed to board the last available bus with open seats.
“Geez! Ya doofball, at least learn not to daydream during such an important day!” scolded Saru.

_____________________________________________________________________
“I’m sorry! I though I saw snow….” was Kyo’s cut-off reply as he thought he saw snow again.
“Uh, Kyo? Are you alright? And snow!?” said Saru as she waved her hands in front of her brother’s face for the attention that had seemed to have wandered.
“Huh? What? What where we saying?” came the baffled reply of her brother.
“…right…” answered a slightly confused Saruka. “You…seem kinda ‘off in your own world’…ya know what I mean?”
“Really? I…oh. Hi, Ari! Didn’t see you there!” called a cheerful Kyo.
“O…K!” He has definitely lost a few screws…though Saru as she watched her brother converse with her best friend. Which, now that she though about it he almost NEVER conversed unless he had to…or she was around to force him…something was DEFINITELY wrong…very wrong.
* * * * *
He was dreaming he knew he was….for what other explanation was there? He wasn’t dead, that he was sure….so where was he? Suddenly thousands- maybe MILLIONS of images and sounds were flowing into his head. Blocking out almost all his senses. What were these? Visions? Dreams? Illusions? Why was he experiencing so many emotions? Suddenly he saw something that…peaked his interest and grabbed at it. And once again he was tossed into the world of dreams…
* * * * *
“KYOU! KYOU! Wake up! What’s wrong come on!” Saru shook her brother hoping to wake him up. He had fainted. She hoped nothing bad would happen…

[Chapter Three: Enchantment and Illusion]
IT WAS WRONG…Completely and utterly wrong! He knew it was. It wasn’t his home…not that he had ever truly had one…but still WRONG…after all…people don’t have CAT ears….right? And come to think of it they had TAILS as well…where the hell was he!?
