My Brothers (Up For Adoption)

Chapter 1

"Come on, Daun!"

"Wait for me, Api!"

Two figures could be seen running in an abandoned dumpster. One of them, Api, was running far ahead from his younger brother, Daun. Well, not exactly younger.

You see, there were seven of them, all the same age as one another. Their personalities vastly contrast each other, making it difficult to imagine them being related to each other if it weren't for their near-identical looks.

Api stopped on a corner of the dumpster and searched through a pile of debris like he was looking for something. His brother followed him in a more sedate pace and stopped just a few steps behind him.

"If Tanah finds out that we went here again, we're dead," Daun said worriedly, his bright green eyes looking around the place for any signs of anyone trying to spy on them.

Api stopped looking through the pile and turned around, facing his younger brother. With a dirty hand, he pointed his index finger upwards, as if making a point.

"That's why we won't tell anyone," he said, a small smirk playing in his lips. "And with that, Tanah will never know, okay?"

"But-"

Api pouted. "Oh come on, Daun. What Tanah doesn't know won't hurt him."

The green-eyed sibling sighed. "You have a point. Your hand is dirty, though."

Their talk was interrupted with a loud clang from behind Api. They both turned to see what had made the sound, only to see a yellow metal sphere rolling down from the mountain of debris. 

"Wha-" Api gaped at the unexpected sight.

"What's that?" Daun gasped, pointing at the yellow sphere.

The red-clothed sibling walked closer to the pile and picked up the sphere, inspecting it. "It's round and a little heavy."

"Maybe it's a soccer ball?" Daun mused as he crouched to look at the ball.

"I don't know," Api said, turning the sphere over. "There's like a hand sticking out of it."

"Ooh, I know!" Daun exclaimed cheerfully. "Let's ask Cahaya! He knows everything!"

Api rolled his eyes. "Ugh, that know-it-all is so annoying though."

His eyes went back to the sphere in his hands. "But I guess we don't really have a choice. I'm curious too."

His orange eyes immediately snapped back at Daun and he started walking back to their house. "But we can't tell him we went here, okay?"

"Okay!" Daun replied with a smile as he scrambled to follow his brother back home.

Little did they know, the sphere had its eyes open and was listening to their conversation.

So the first part of the septuplet AU is now here! Kind of weird that I'm not writing so much, but I'm trying to stick to the plot of the comic without modifying too much. I hope I did the comic some justice.
