I am back just as I promised!
Please write a review!
Thanks, enjoy the read.
---------------------------------------
'Ugh' Ian groaned.
'Where am I?'
He looked around confused and flabbergasted.
Because he found himself in a normal room but everything was big as a house. Big floor, big ceiling, big shelf, and even a big cradle.
'Wait a cradle...?!'
Ian first looked at the wooden poles surrounding him confused. But then everything became clear to him.
'So the old man was real and I was reincarnated!' He thought and tried to remember the conservation between him and the supposed deity.
But his memories of the conservation and his memories of his past life were terrifyingly quickly fading away.
'Shit that old coot didn't say anything about this!' He cursed the deity in anger while trying to save as many of his memories as he could.
.
.
.
*Huff*
After ten minutes of intense remembering, he finally could rest a little. Since the memory deletion process was seemingly finished.
But sadly that ten minutes were enough to delete most of his memories of his past life.
"Uwahhh"
He wanted to curse out loud but the only thing coming out of his mouth was the cry of a baby.
"Uwahhh" He tried to curse again in anger and fear, fear of being in a new world alone. But again the only thing coming out of his mouth was a cry.
Realizing that it was not going anywhere Ian stopped trying to talk.
"Uwahhh"
'Wait that wasn't me'
He gave in all and turned his heavy baby head to the right. From where he heard the other baby cry.
'For some reason, he seems familiar!' Ian thought looking at the source of the cry.
It, no he, was a baby as well similarly lying next to him. He already had little fluffy hair, half white, half red. He was loudly crying his eyes out, probably because 'somebody' woke him up from his sweet dreams.
'Agh, so annoying! It's in my mind my mind but I can't remember!'
Ian felt like when you know something but you can't remember. Like when his history teacher asked him what it was called when the Jews gain equal rights as citizens.
(A/n: Sorry, previous grievances!)
*Click*
But he couldn't think a lot more because the door slid open. And through the door, a middle-aged woman with natural hair came through. Followed by three kids. All three had white hair with red stripes in it.
The oldest was probably around 10 years old while the youngest was just barely four. He was holding his sister's hand while curiously looking toward the cradle.
"There, there mumy is here, you can relax."
The middle-aged woman stood beside the cradle, picked up the screaming baby, and said gently caressed his head.
The infant feeling his mother's warm embrace slowly stopped crying.
'He is sure lucky!' Ian thought jealously because he instead of a milf got an eight years old kid who was really interested in his cheeks.
"Natsuo look how cute he is!"
The eight years old girl poked Ian's chubby cheeks and said to her little brother standing next to her. While the oldest one just looked at the scene with a happy smile still not stained by the cruelty of fate.
Ian whose body was still just as responsive as a sack of potatoes could only glare at her angrily for the shame-destroying pokes.
"So cute! He loves it!" She squealed and started to poke the already red cheeks of Ian. Totally misinterpreting the glare.
"Sis Yumi, I don't think he really loves it."
Natsuo said observing the more and more annoyed glare of his little brother.
"But I can't stop he is too cute!"
She said still not stopping with the poking for a moment.
"Uwa uwa!"
But Ian couldn't stand it anymore and gave up his shame and started giving out annoyed baby noises.
"Yumi stop bothering your little brother and let him rest."
Finally, after the middle-aged woman noticed the commotion said to the cruel face poker.
"Alright, Kāsan...."
Fuyumi said and with a reluctant face, finally stopped poking Ian. She could only retreat for now but she promised to not let his chubby cheeks go waste.
'You have my eternal gratitude savior!'
Ian thought and looked at the woman who was probably his new mother, with warmth and gratitude. Who seemingly noticing his look smiled warmly at him.
With each passing moment, the atmosphere in the room slowly got warmer and homelier.
'Ah, maybe this reincarnation is not that bad in the end.'
Ian thought losing himself in this new feeling, trying to not remember how scary of a position he is in.
*Bang*
But then everything changed when the door forcefully opened again. And through the door, a big blury middle-aged man with red hair came into the room.
'What the fuck?!'
Ian shouted in his mind after noticing the man. He felt a little familiarity again but the main reason why he was so shocked was because the man was on fire!
'Does this world have magic or something?!'
While Ian was thinking the others in the room also noticed the man. Which caused the temperature in the room to visible drop.
"Welcome back Enji-sama."
The white-haired woman greeted me with a cold face and a monotone voice without any real respect. But for some reason, Ian felt like there are more things buried deep in that cold face.
The man in a turquoise body suit just ignored her and walked in front of her.
And without saying anything took out the baby with two colored hair out of his mother's hand. The cold mask on the woman's face broke for a moment and showed a hint of worry. But she quickly wiped it off her face and her face became cold again.
Enji didn't notice it or just didn't care but either way he just intensely stared at the infant for half a minute.
"Hahaha"
He suddenly started maniacally laugh while holding the frightened boy out.
"Shoto, burn and freeze, perfect! You will be the future number one!"
He started to mumble out random words loudly, not caring about his surrounding.
'He is totally crazy!'
Ian thought a little frightened, not noticing the twitch on his oldest brother's face.
Enji after finishing with the Shoto's inspection gave him back to his mother where the poor boy could finally relive a little, and looked at the three oldest siblings.
"Welcome back oto-sama!"
The three of them greeted at the same time while straightening a little. And while the oldest one had a pure admiration on his face the other two had a little hate and fear in their eyes.
"Hmm"
Enji or in another name Flame Hero: Endeavor just grumbled and looked down in the crib where Ian was lying.
Enji stared in Ian eyes for a moment and then without saying anything turned around and started walk out of the room.
'Yep, he totally gone nuts!' Ian confirmed in his mind and sighed mentally.
"Toya come it's time for you to train!"
Endeavor turned around and said to his oldest son and left the room.
"Yes, father!"
The smile on Toya's face stretched out and happily said, ready to prove himself.
After Endeavor finally left followed by the excited Toya the room in fell into silence.
"It's time for you two to go!"
Finally, Rei (their mother) broke the silence and said to the two siblings left in the room.
"But we still couldn't play with Shoto, right Natsuo?!"
The ever energetic Fuyumi tried to protest against his mother's decision. While little Natsuo could only nod his head if he didn't want to face his sister's pranks.
"No means no, it's time for them to get a good afternoon nap!"
But Fuyumi still didn't want to give up and didn't move.
"Sigh, you are sometimes just as stubborn as your father!" Rei said with a sigh, she stretched out her arm without Shoto in it, toward the two naughty children.
'What's happening?'
While Ian looked at the scene confused, the two siblings were excited.
After a short time finally, Ian's question was answered when the temperature around Rei's outstretched hand started to visibly drop at an alarming rate. Until her whole hand was cast into ice.
And the ice with a fast speed started to spread towards Fuyumi and Natsuo, whose faces instead of fear burnt with excitement.
The wave of ice reached the two, it spread around them enclosing their waists. After they were tightly secured Rei motioned with her hands sending the two flying.
"Yuhe, we are flying!"
"Hahaha"
Fuyumi happily shouted while Natsuo was just happily laughing.
With the speed of the ice, it didn't take long for the two to reach the opened door and they fought right through it.
*Bang*
After the two left Rei motioned with her hands again and the ice closed the door.
'That was so fucking cool!'
Ian looked at her new mother's back in admiration.
"Now that two scoundrels are gone it's time for you two to sleep." She turned around, put Shoto in the cradle, and said to the boy were looking at her in amazement.
"Hmm its seems the excitement is too big to sleep..."
Looking at the shining eyes of the twin she understood that if she doesn't do something they probably won't sleep for some time.
"Hmm about, a lullaby..."
She said and tried to think of a good one.
"Oh, I have a good one! My mother always used to sing this to me..."
She said and smiled a little remembering the old days. She cleared her throat and started to sing.
Whenever life gets you down,
Keeps you wearing a frown,
And the gravy train has left you behind
And when you're all out of hope,
Down at the end of your rope,
And nobody's there to throw you a line
If you ever get so low
That you don't know which way to go
When she finished singing the second verse seemingly the twin were already deep asleep.
When Rei noticed this she quietly stood up and leaned in the cradle.
"Good night my little treasure Shoto."
She whispered and kissed Shoto's forehead.
Then he leaned over to Ian where her eyes landed on the fluffy red hair of his. She just stared at it deep in thoughts, on her face wide range of feeling buried in deep, starting from fear, to sadness even some hatred appeared.
Ian actually was still awake and he was just pretending to sleep. And witnessed the whole thing through the small gap between his eyelids.
"Good night..."
After a few minutes, Rei finally woke up from her thoughts and whispered in a little shaken voice.
"My little rising sun Akiho!"
