Ryuko Satuki and Mako were currently heading to a festival in town. "Why are we doing this again?" Ryuko asked looking at the other two girls.

"Well Lady Satsuki has that thing she's supposed to be doing here. Then me and you were going to go and check out some of the attractions they have remember." Mako said looking at her.

"Yeah but this festival just seems like a bad idea." Ryuko said looking at her.

"Yes I may seem that way but you need to get out more often." Satsuki said looking at her.

"Yeah after all Christmas is just around the corner." Mako said looking at her.

"Christmas isn't for another two months." Satsuki said looking at her.

"Yeah but's practically no time at all." Mako said looking at her.

Ryuko sighed and watched the two argue. Surprisingly after Satsuki met Mako it turned out the two had very different views on things and they would often get into little arguments about them.

Ryuko sighed as she saw an oddly familiar odd woman sitting in front of a stand with a sign that said KNOWS ALL. Ryuko shrugged and walked over to it. "Hello dearie," The older woman said looking at her.

"Uh yes hello what do you mean by "knows all?" Ryuko asked looking at her.

"Well it's quite simple really. You ask me a question then I consult the seven embodiments to answer your questions." The old women said looking at her.

"The seven embodiments?" Ryuko asked looking at her.

"Yes there are seven embodiments of things we take for granted that watch over us. They can not be seen but are always their when we need them the most. These embodiments are fate, justice, death, hope, deception, wisdom, and truth." The old women said looking at her.

"I see well let me think of a question for you." Ryuko said as she thought of something.

"Who is the most important person to me?" She asked looking at me.

The old women threw some sort of dust into a small plate in front of her. Then lit it on fire making a strange green flame. The women looked confused for a second before she answered. "The most important people to are Senketsu and Mako, However it would seem as if their is another answer to this." The old women said looking at her.

"What do you mean another answer you got it right?" Ryuko asked looking at her.

"Yes I know but it would seem as though apart of the truth has been hidden. It would seem as if deception has hidden part of the truth and refuses to allow the others to know what or where it is or what is?" She said looking at the flames. She then looked at Ryuko with an apologetic smile and said "I'm sorry please ignore that last part." She said.

"Is there anyway to reveal the truth?" Ryuko asked looking at her.

The old women sighed and threw some more dust onto the fire. "It would seem as if there is a way to do it although it may prove difficult." The old women said looking at her.

"If you are somehow able to convenes deception to reveal the truth then everything shall return to the way it was before." The women said looking at her.

"Alright well got any idea's about how I might go about this?" Ryuko asked looking at her.

The old women smiled and threw some more dust onto the fire. "It would seem as if there is a way. You have to prove that you truly want to know the truth." the old women said looking at her.

"How might I do that?" Ryuko asked looking at her.

"That is something you'll have to figure out on your own." The older women said looking at her. Ryuko nodded and walked away.

"So any idea's Senketsu?" Ryuko asked looking at her clothing.

"Sorry Ryuko but I have no idea's as to how we can achieve your goal." Senketsu said looking up at her.

"I see well that's unfortunate." Ryuko said looking down at him. Ryuko let out a sigh as she walked towards a stage she saw Satsuki there giving some sort of speech about how man kind shall overcome any obstacle thrown it's way. She sighed as she saw Mako coming towards her with a few bags in her hands. "Ryuko look at what I got." Mako said as she started to list off all the things she had gotten in the stores she had visited.

"Hey Mako I'm going to head home. I'm not feeling well." Ryuko said as she started towards the house. All the way there she tried her best to shake the thoughts of what that old women had said out of her head but then again how could she. She had been able to tell who her friends were and she didn't know who she was. Did she?

Ryuko once again shook these thoughts out of her head and walked into the house. She sighed as she remembered that the rest of the family was all out somewhere else. She walked into her room and sat on the bed. "Do you think she actually knew what she was talking about?" Ryuko asked aloud.

"I suppose it is possible." Senketsu said in a unsure voice.

Ryuko then sighed as she got up and walked over to her bed. She laid down on the bed and slowly started to drift off to sleep. When she opened her eyes she found herself standing in a solid white plan. She then saw a boy that she didn't recognize and yet in the same since looked familiar to her. The male looked at her and a kind smile painted his face. For whatever reason Ryuko felt her heart speed up.

"Please don't do this. This will only going to lead to pain." The male figure said looking at her.

"What do you mean? Who are you and what do you mean by this will only lead to pain?" Ryuko asked looking at him.

The male once again smiled at her. "Sorry but my time's up. Goodbye Ryuko-chan." For some reason when the male said goodbye it brought forth some pain in her chest. She then watched as the male turned into dust and faded into the wind.

"This is what he wanted." She heard a voice behind her say. Ryuko quickly turned around to see a cloaked figure behind her.

"Who are you and who was that boy just now?" Ryuko asked looking at him.

"I am deception. That male you just saw is what I'm trying to hide from you. I have no control over him he decides what he says and who he says it to. He wasn't wrong though if you continue down this path you will find yourself either causing yourself pain or even worse you shall cause him pain." The figure said looking at her.

Her eyes widened slightly but the figure continued to speak. "However if you are truly set on finding out the truth I have hidden then take this." The figure said handing her a bag. When she opened it up she saw some golden power inside of it. "Take that to any fire and burn it. Only then shall he no longer be hidden. However I feel as if it's only fair to warn you. Weather you know it or not you shall cause him more pain than anyone." He said looking at her. "Now be gone." was the last words she heard before she awoke in bed.

When she looked around she found a bag similar to the one she had saw in her dream sitting on a dresser. She picked it up and looked inside to see the same golden dust inside the bag. Her eyes widened slightly as she walked outside and headed towards town. On the way there she found four figures she had become familiar with at the beach around a huge fire.

"Hey everyone," She said looking at Zero and the twins.

"Hey Ryuko," Xerxes said looking at her.

"What are you doing here?" Zero asked looking at her.

"I just needed to do something." Silence then fell upon the four of them as Ryuko showed them the bag. "Mind if I throw this on the fire?" She asked looking at them.

"No go for it." The two twins stated looking at her. She smiled and threw the whole thing onto the fire not even bothering to take it out of the bag. Suddenly the flames turned white and a figure started to be seen in the fire. The same male from Ryukos dream then walked out of the fire and looked at them. "It's good to see you all again." He said looking at them.

They all gained a confused look and the male decided to clarify what he meant. "You still can't remember me I know that much but it's still good to see you all again." He said looking at them.

"You know who they are?" Mako asked looking at him.

"Yeah I do." [Name] said looking at her.

"Do you know who I am?" Mako asked looking at him.

"It's a little hard to forget my only little sister." [Name] said looking at her. Mako's eyes then widened looking at him only to narrow a moment later.

"If you really are my older brother than what was the name of stuffed teddy bear I used to sleep with?" Mako asked looking at him.

"Oh come one Mako there's no way he's goin-" Ryuko began only to get cut off.

"Mr. Huggles and it's not used to you still do sleep with him." [Name] said looking at her only to receive a hug from the younger girl.

"I'VE GOT AN ONII-SAN!" The younger girl said looking at him.

"Yeah you do now please let me go." [Name] said looking at her.

"Alright well it's nice to meet you . . . I'm sorry what did you say your name was again?" Zero said looking at him.

"My name is [Name]." The male said looking at him.

"[Name] oddly enough that does sound a little familiar." Zero said looking at him.

"I'd hope so you used to be my best friend." [Name] said looking at him.

"Oh okay well I'll talk to you later then. I got to go I'm working on something new." Zero said walking away.

"Sure thing" [Name] said looking at him.

"Alright well let's go home." Mako said taking both Ryukos and [Name]'s hand. [Name] then pulled his hand away from hers and looked at her. "I'll go there by myself there's something I need to do first." [Name] said looking at her.

Mako nodded and for some reason Ryuko felt a little concerned for him. She decided to ignore it however her mind got the best of her and she looked back at him. He wasn't smiling like he had been instead he looked really sad and almost looked as if he was going to cry.

[Name] watched as he watched the two people he loved most walk off. When they were out of sight [Name] started to walk in a different direction. "Damn it's going to be impossible to keep that act up around everyone." [Name] said aloud. "I mean there's no telling when their memories may come back and when they do they might only get bits and pieces of the whole thing." [Name] said looking at her.
