Even a song can make you remember
(10 Years Later)(At Devil May Cry/Scarlet Devil Mansion)
Shirogane:*reading a manga book*
Sayuka: here's your boba chocolate master.
Shirogane: thank you Sayuka, now I must check on if anybody arrived.
He got up and checks the windows if anybody are these. He sees a girl in red hair and she knocks the door which caused Shirogane to open the door letting her inside.
Shirogane: you must be Rias Gremory, is that correct?
Rias: yes I heard about this Devil May Cry location and so I checked this place for myself.
Shirogane: so what do you want Rias?
Rias:*sigh* Lord Phenex ask me to find you as he heard about your powers.....
Shirogane: sorry I don't take request from bastards like him.
Rias: why?
Shirogane: have you heard any other family members of the Phenex Family?
Rias: no I have not why?
Shirogane:*mind* that bastard use some memory seal on Rias!!
Rias: something wrong?
Shirogane: anything wrong with Lord Phenex? Was his voice acting different? his body movements? Did you felt odd when arriving the Phenex Castle?
Rias: yes the aura felt more different more cold as I arrived.
Shirogane: what about the pictures?
Rias: many of them I've seen where just them and their two children.
Shirogane: that's what you're wrong.....there's the third child.
Rias: a third child!?
Shirogane: yes that child was different has he has white hair which that fool thought it was a "curse" but it's not the white hair is actually a blessing. The third Child was also abused by him.
Rias: why?!
Shirogane: because the white hair, his Hell's Flames were not strong before and having half of an Archangel's blood.
Rias: before?
Shirogane: let me check your neck.
He checks her neck and growls as he sees a memory suppressed seal. He did some hand signs and the seal is removed as Rias remembers everything.
Rias: now I remember.....wait where's Y/n!? Please tell me he's not dead!!
Shirogane: oh no he's safe just he's here.
Rias: where?!
Y/n: because I'm in front of you Rias-hime.
Rias: Y/n!? You're okay!!
Y/n: yeah but not really.
Rias:*sobs*I'm sorry that we could adopt you!! I'm sorry!!
Y/n: hey easy I don't want the Gremory princess to be in tears.
Rias: yeah I was also have a new problem.
Y/n: why?
Rias: my mother and your father made a marriage contract.
Y/n: what?!
Rias: I couldn't remember you since the memory seal was on us!!
Y/n: that bastard is gonna be the depths of hell itself with the stages of hell!! Is it Riser that you're marrying isn't?
Rias: yes....
Y/n:*growls* I'm gonna beat up Lord Phenex until he's just a bloody chicken and I'll roast his ass until he's burned chicken. I'll rip he flesh from his body.
Rias: Y/n?
Y/n: sorry my demonic side is really protective of you.
Rias: oh I see now.
Y/n: actually I'll be sing with my lovers if you want to join with me.
She was shocked that Y/n has a harem and wives. Y/n's eyes glowed many different colors while stopping at his yellow eyes.
Sayuka: master?
Y/n: Sayuka I must go to a restaurant to sing you join with me along with some of my girlfriends while Remilia takes cares Devil May Cry for me while I'm gone.
Sayuka: yes master we should go now.
He, Sayuka, Rias and some of his girlfriends left the Scarlet Mansion. They arrived at the restaurant in the Underworld, Y/n sees his mother, his older brother Riser, younger sister Ravel and his bastard of a father.
Y/n: Rias they're here wear this hoodie so you won't get spotted.
He summons out a hoodie and she wears it as she won't get notice. Y/n brings his instruments as his lovers grabbed them. He walks up in the stage and speaks to the crowd.
Shirogane: hello I'm Shirogane a hybrid. The situation I'm having with my family. It's what inspired me to sing the songs I do. For those of you who don't, well I'll explain. My family neglects me, to the point where I don't even seem to exist to them. A father abused me because I wasn't powerful and he thinks I bring a curse. I'm an outcast. This has been going on for my entire life. So, I've decided to build a house, so that I can leave them. Since they don't want me, I'll go away. In fact, my house was finished today, so I'll be moving into it, tomorrow. For years, I've been looking for the perfect song to describe how I feel. I finally found it during a visit to another country. The artist calls the song, "Missing." This song will be my message to my family. The family that turned me away."
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
They began to start to the music, everyone starts to watch Shirogane.
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And barely conscious you'll say to no one
"Isn't something missing?""
That last line brings Lady Phenex's mind back to the oddity she felt with the photos on the walls back at castle.
"You won't cry for my absence I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"
"Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?"
Lady Phenex is certain she's forgotten someone important. She feels light-headed, but fights against it, trying to remember who she forgot.
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again.
I know what you do to yourself,
I breathe deep and cry out,
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"
Lady Phenex is now noticing a stinging sensation on the back of her neck. She continues to fight against whatever is trying to stop her from remembering.
Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't someone missing me?"
She looks at Lord Phenex who's focused on Shirogane. Like before, in her mind's eye, something begins to appear on his eyes.
"And if I bleed,
I'll bleed:
Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep,
Just to dream of you,
And wake without you there.
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...?"
Lady Phenex can now make out the things appearing on the boy's face.
Lady Phenex:*mind* wait white hair? Blue eyes?
The stinging sensation on her neck intensifies, but Lady Phenex summons more of her willpower to fight it, and a name finally comes to her mind.
Lady Phenex: "Y/n."
Luckily, no one heard her, so Lord Phenex is none the wiser.
"Even though I'm the sacrifice,
You won't try for me, not now.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
I'm all alone.
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"
The crowd starts applauding. Lady Phenex, certain that something is messing with her mind, keeps her focus on her jumbled memories of Y/n. She looks at the people sitting around the table and sees that Y/n isn't with them.
Lady Phenex: "My son. Where is my son? Where is Y/n?"
Something in her subconscious warns her not to ask her husband, so she remains silent.
Later, they're walking home. Lord Phenex notices that Lady Phenex seems distracted, but shrugs it off. He's certain she'll talk to him about it. When they get home, the siblings and Lord Phenex go off to bed. Lady Phenex stays awake. She walks into the living room and looks at the photos. The lyrics of the song are echoing in her head as she looks in the photo album.
"You won't cry for my absence, I know."
Lady Phenex: Why isn't there a photo of Y/n?"
"You forgot me long ago."
She looks at the family photo.
Lady Phenex: Why isn't Y/n in this photo? Why?
"Am I that unimportant? Am I so insignificant?"
She reacts in anger and smacks the photo off the mantle. It falls to the floor and breaks. The stinging sensation on the back of her neck intensifies, trying to make her forget. She summons more of her willpower to fight it.
Lady Phenex: Why?"
She goes into a closet and pulls out a box labeled photo albums. She pulls out the one for this year and starts flipping through it. Tears are now building up in her eyes.
Lady Phenex: Why isn't Y/n in any of these photos?"
She tosses aside the one she's holding and grabs the one from last year. She flips through it, finding no photos of Y/n. She tosses it to the side, and grabs another one. The tears are pouring out of her eyes.
Lady Phenex: Why? Why isn't Y/n in any of these? Where is he?"
Shirogane: And if I bleed, I'll bleed: knowing you don't care."
She keeps frantically flipping through the photo albums, desperate to find a picture of her son Y/n.
Lady Phenex: Why? Why?"
Finally, she finds one. Her eyes widen at the picture and the date.
The picture depicts Lord Phenex, a young Y/n, with a young Riser and a pregnant Lady Phenex, with a cake in front of them. The date on the photo is (Insert your birthday). The photo was taken on Y/n's fifth birthday. Lady Phenex is sobbing now, realizing how long she has forgotten her son.
Lady Phenex: Oh, Y/n. Y/n, I'm so sorry."
The stinging sensation increases even more. Lady Phenex tries to fight against it, but her memories are beginning to slip away again.
Lady Phenex: No, I don't want to forget again. Y/n. Y/n! I'M SORRY Y/N!"
*Scene Change*
Y/n sighs in relief.
Y/n: I didn't think I would make that much money for that last performance. Well, it'll make living with my wives and paying the bills of the mansion.
As he files off away from the Underworld, he notices something.
Y/n: the castle? Why are the lights are on?
He flies towards it, walking in the castle and saw his mother crying while clutching a old photo with many other photo albums everywhere.
Lady Phenex: I'm sorry Y/n, I'm sorry*sobs*...
Y/n: mother.
He sees a modify version of the memory seal and he uses some of his holy powers to remove it.
Lady Phenex: Y/n?
He nods at her, still a little wary. His mother quickly grabs him into a hug, still crying.
Lady Phenex: Y/n!! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! I didn't want to forget you! Why did I forget you?"
His instinct was to push her away but with her emotions getting too much for him so he let her pour out her emotions.
Y/n: mother listen we need some rest for tomorrow. We should clean this mess up and don't tell anybody about this as "Father" would be involved with this.
She didn't looked at him but nods. They both get up and clean the mess. As they both went to their respected bedrooms.
Lady Phenex: We'll be talking about this tomorrow?
Y/n: yes goodnight mother.
Lady Phenex: good night, Y/n.
Then they rested for the night.
