Digimon Fan Fiction ❯ Never Give Up ❯ A New Beginning ( Prologue )

Author's note= I finally did it! This was on my mind since long time, I just hadn't the time to type it down.

It's highly AU, the DD don't know each others, only Matt, Mimi and TK do. The whole Digital World stuff never happened.

Warning= yaoi, lime in later chapters; I really can't write graphic, I can't ;___; I'm inexpert on that section, so I'll stop at the limish.

IMPORTANT:

READ THE AUTHOR'S NOTE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE IF YOU WANT THIS SERIES TO GO ON!!

Anyway, read and enjoy!!! NEVER GIVE UP

The flies were buzzing around dead bodies of animals, while snakes and insects made their way through the grey grass, looking for something alive, anything alive with whom survive the winter. But there was nothing. It was all so…dead…unliving…

The once green and vibrating country was unmoving; it was like the time stopped working, like one of that old photos from 19th century; grey, far, unreal.

But that was the real problem, it was real. Everything was empty, sad. Black trees with no more leaves left on their branches were screaming their pain like lost soul in the middle of the night.

Owls were standing straight and cold on the top of them, looking everything from up above.

The country wasn't more the country. It was something not even Virgilius could definite country. A country is a green, peaceful world, not a grey graveyard.

A pale sun appeared through the clouds, lightning a little the shadows of the rocks and of the nude trees.

It had been a terrible year. For the farmers at least. Rich people didn't care. They owned everything, even poor people's lives.

Whole families had been devastated. They had no food, and the men were always trying to find something between the rests of the once growing.

The famine had ruined their lives. The children needed to eat, and their parents were desperate. They tried to find another job moving to the city, but they weren't always successful. Even the eldest sons went to find a job to help their family.

One of them were the Ishidas.

Before the famine, they lived happily in a little cottage, with a small field to survive, but the catastrophe hit them too. The father, Masaharu, had died of pellagra, leaving his eldest son, Yamato, to be the man of the house and to help his mother, Natsuko and his little brother Takeru, who was only 13.

At the beginning it wasn't so hard, but then the pressures were just too much to bear with. They needed help, a concrete help, but they were too proud to admit that. Their friends, the Tachikawa, once tried to help them, but they politely refused. They couldn't accept their money.

But now times were getting harder. Really harder. Not even the Tachikawa could stand that poverty, they had already left their house for the city. The Ishidas tried to keep up. They never gave up.

Until Natsuko got ill. The symptoms were unmistakable; beri-beri. It was long time the ate properly, and the food they could get was not even imaginable for a family with three people, one of whom seriously ill.

So Yamato decided to move to the city to find a job. Whatever job he could, to save his mother. He had to leave his brother with her. He didn't dare take his family with himself, he wasn't sure he could find a place where live or even rest. No, he had to leave them at the cottage, for their safety. He had to.

His brother tried to protest when Yamato told him his decisions, but now nothing could stop him. Takeru sadly nodded, promising his big brother to take care of their mother.

The boys looked both sad. They hugged until they could not breathe properly, the pain to bear was too much.

Then, with tears in his eyes and an image of his brother and his mother engraved in his mind, Yamato left his house and his life behind.

End of Chapter One

Teti= all right minna if you want me to continue this series you only have to tell me that using the little purple box here.

And there's a thing I have to absolutely ask you.

I intend to make this a YAOI, no doubts about that. The problem is, the pairing; I already know that it will include Yamato and he will be the ukimi. But, and I ask you to do this, you have to tell me who will be the seme.

I want to make this a Taito or Kenato, I'm just undecided.

So, what should I do? A classic Taito or a new Kenato? You decide, I don't.

I think I'll continue writing this next week-end, so vote until Saturday, then I'll know who the main couple is.

Review please!!
