The burning desire
To live and roam free
It shines in the dark
And it grows within me
(Lyrics from Utopia by Within Temptation)
The humans live in a utopia. With their relaxed lives and their advanced technology they have little to worry about. D...
Dedication: EVERY READER *throws confetti* INCLUDING GHOST READERS!!!!!! YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Much to everyone's surprise, the (now alive) Suga isn't the first to speak... The first to speak or rather yell, is Tanaka. "HELL YEAH THAT LEGEND IS TRUE!!!!!!! CROW-PEOPLE'S RESERVED LIFE FORCE IS RELEASED BY TEARS OF THEIR LOVED ONES! SUGA-SAN I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE ALIVE!"
"WHAT?" Everyone else present shouts, feeling extremely confused. "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?"
"There is an old legend..." Tanaka says, pausing for dramatic affect, "that states that crow-people have an extra amount of life within them... Kinda like cats and their nine lives. For crow-people it's called 'reserved life force'... Sadly it skips a generation. Since Suga has it, it means that his parents didn't have it, and his kids won't have it, IF he has kids..."
"Wow Tanaka-san you sound intelligent for once," Kageyama remarks, and soon ends up having to use his crutches to defend himself from Tanaka's anger induced, and wild flailing.
Despite the seriousness of all that has happened, Suga finds himself laughing... Laughing louder than ever before. His laughter is calming, and soon Kageyama and Tanaka are no longer fighting each other. Instead they are gazing at him... Gazing at him with large smiles and bright eyes. In fact, everyone is. Well, almost everyone...
Daichi has a small smile... A small smile that is accompanied by tears.
"Daichi," Suga says, in a soft voice, "come here." Daichi immediately walks over to Suga... Walks over to Suga, and bends down... Bends down so he can wrap his arms around him, and pull him close.
So he can nuzzle his face into his neck...
So he can smell Suga's sweet smell...
"Stop crying, Daichi," Suga whispers, "I'm okay... Everything is okay." As he speaks, he rubs circles on Daichi's back. Just like Daichi had done to him a while ago... Just like Daichi had done for him after his first encounter with Kyotani.
A few sniffles later, Daichi is no longer crying.
But he still holds Suga. He still holds Suga because a small part of him is afraid... Afraid that not only is Suga is dead, but that he was never real to begin with... That the crow-people and him are just one big, and elaborate dream. He desperately hopes that it isn't a dream... He hopes that the Suga before him is real, and that the crow-people are real... That everything that really happened....
"We'll give you some privacy," Tanaka says, before having to shoo everyone away from Daichi and Suga. Before having to make everyone leave...
And hide behind a boulder ten meters away.
"This is real, right?" Daichi asks, with a shaky voice. "You're no longer dead... You are real... This isn't a dream? Because if it is a dream, I will admit that it is the most beautiful dream that I ever have had."
"Yes, this is real," Suga says, all the while grabbing hold of one of Daichi's hands. Ever so gently he pulls on Daichi's hand, and only lets go when Daichi is touching his chest... When Daichi's hand is resting over his heart... "I'm alive. I'm real. This isn't a dream. Although it feels like a dream..." Feeling the need to convince himself that he isn't dreaming, Suga places one of his hands over Daichi's heart. "It isn't a dream... I'm so glad it isn't a dream."
"Me too," Daichi says, and in the hopes of cheering them both up, he quickly adds, "Now, your majesty, is it alright if I kiss you?"
"Yes, but only if you tell me what a stripper is," Suga says with a grin.
"YOU REMEMBER THE INCIDENT WITH KUROO?" Daichi exclaims, genuinely surprised.
"Just because I was dead for a while doesn't mean I lost my memories," Suga says, with a laugh. "I'm just really curious... You don't have to tell me... After all, I want you to kiss me. I want you to kiss me everyday. Can you do that?"
"I can," Daichi responds, before kissing Suga. In between kisses, he says, "and you know what? I won't just tell you what a stripper is. I'll show you." Suga, who is always excited to learn more about human things, emits a happy hum.
"YEAH SUGA GET SOME," Tanaka shouts, making both him and Daichi jump... And making everyone who is hiding behind the boulder with him laugh.
Well, except for Kageyama... Upon seeing how nicely Suga and Daichi interact... After seeing how much trust they have in each other, he can't help but feel guilty. Like Daichi, Hinata had tried to help him... He had tried to help him even though Kageyama refused to see the good in him... After he refused to see that there are good humans in the world.
Deciding to apologize before he loses his courage, Kageyama turns to face Hinata. With slightly pink cheeks, Kageyama mutters, "I'm s-sorry, dumbass..."
"My name is not dumbass," Hinata huffs, "But I'll except your apology."
Suga is glad that they were able to save the forest... But he knows that there are still many forests in Japan, and even the world that need saving. With Tanaka ruling in his place while he is traveling, Suga, Daichi, Kuroo, Hinata, and Kageyama travel around Japan, trying to save as many forests as they can.
Trying to save as many animals..
As many trees...
As many crow-people as they can.
Sadly, for some forests, there isn't much to save...
Sadly, for some forests, they arrive too late...
"Wait, do you hear that?" Suga says suddenly, hearing a high pitched cry from somewhere within the pitiful remains of the forest.
"Hear w-" Daichi begins to ask, just as a sound interrupts him. A sound that is similar to the crying of a baby. In a matter of seconds, he finds himself chasing after Suga, who is chasing after the sound.
There is a baby, within a log. And not just any kind of baby... A crow-person baby. A crow-person baby with spiky hair, with part of it being lighter in the front. Bending down, Suga gently picks up the baby, and holds him to his chest. Daichi will admit, the baby is adorable... With incredibly adorable, big eyes, and feathers on either side of his head. He looks a lot like what Suga looked like when Daichi first met him... "The poor thing, he is all alone... His parents are probably those dead crows we saw earlier...."
"Yeah..." Daichi says, "It's a shame... Anyway... We can't jut leave him here! We'll take him with us. You know, we could... Umm..." Daichi grows a bit embarrassed yet happy just thinking about it... Just thinking of Suga and him raising a child together.
"I'd love to raise him with you," Suga says, with a smile that makes Daichi's heart melt. The moment, the peaceful and beautiful moment is soon interrupted by the screaming of Hinata. "WOAHHHHHHHH YOU GUYS FOUND A BABY! LOOK KUROO-SAN HIS HAIR IS MORE WILD THAN YOURS!"
"STOP YELLING OR YOU'LL MAKE THE BABY CRY!" Kageyama says, scolding Hinata in a very loud voice.
"We already have some children, don't we?" Daichi mutters, as Hinata and Kageyama begin bickering, with Kuroo occasionally joining in.
