Chapter Text
“ I'm afraid he could go any day now” said a voice.
“ How awful, especially for someone so young”
“(The worst luck…Can't speak anymore…can't sing anymore…A cerebral stroke… that's what the doctor said…This is fine…I have no friends… Mom and Dad kept fighting…)”
With a head turn,In the mirror was a young man head covered in bandages, eyes dull and lifeless. pay slowly closed their eyes and saw nothing but darkness.
But then the sounds of a baby crying can be heard,
“(Why is it so bright?)”
Looking up to see a girl with blue-purple hair, it would seem to be stars in her eyes tearing up.
“(Who the heck are.. when I recognize her, she's that Idol..Ai Hoshino..wait am I-)”
Tries to reach out a hand only to see a small baby hand.
“(Wait,Is that my hand?Oh now I get it)”
Months later..
“ (So it turns out I reincarnated, and that I'm the son of a Idol.. )”
The mirror then showed two baby boys, one with blonde hair, blue eyes with a six point star in the right eye. The other one had blue-purplish colored hair and purple eyes with both stars just like his mother.
“You're such a good boys, aquamarine,Lapis”said Ai Hoshino.
“( that's me, the oldest.Hoshino Lapis,At least my name is not as long as Aqua’s or-)”
His thoughts are interrupted when he hears crying and is put on the couch as she goes to pick up a baby girl with blonde hair and red eyes with a six point star on the left eye.
“Now what's the matter, Ruby?” she asked while picking her up.
“(Our younger sister,Ruby.We're triplets but unlike the other two I look the most like mom)”He thought to himself as Ruby cried.
“What's wrong, Aqua?”Ai asks.
“ That's Ruby,ya know? And you call yourself a mother?”
He sees two adults into the room.One was a man with short blonde hair,facial hair, wearing glasses and a suit while another was a radiant-skinned woman with strawberry blonde hair that has bangs on the left side and Rouge- colored eyes wearing a red dress.
“ I've always been bad at remembering names and faces, I can't help it. Pretty gross, huh? Japanese men have these Illusions about how mothers should be”said Ai.
“ Don't get all International on me, you don't even have a passport!” said the man.
“(Mama's manager,Ichigo Saitou and his wife Miyako...Yay)” he thought to himself.
Ichigo brought out a board and then slammed his hand on it.
“ Anyway… as of today,Ai returns to being an idol! We're going to discuss your activities going forward. First step of your comeback is a music program tonight, it'll be broadcast live, but you're up for it, right?” he asks.
“ Of course”Ai responds.
“ While you're working, my wife will look after your children”said Ichigo.
“I see…” she said noticeably looking down.
“(Hey, I'm not happy to spend my time with you either lady..unless)” Lapis thought while looking at her breast.
“ Your wife is pretty young, huh? The other members are super turned off by the way you favor young girls”said Ai.
“That's news to me. I'll be more careful” he responds, not noticing the look that his wife was giving him.
“ Is it a problem if I bring my kids to the studio?”Ai asks.
“ Of course it's a problem! Now listen here! If work gets out that an idol like you became a mother of three at 16, you can kiss your idol career goodbye. I'll come under Fire as the one responsible for supervising you, and my agency will be finished. The whole lot of us will be going straight to hell!” he said, falling to the ground.
“(I don't know about straight to hell but-)”
“And no bringing the kids shopping or to do paperwork at the gov office either! If you have a truly pressing emergency, you're to head out under the guise that you are watching our kids for us!”he shouts.
“Aw come on! What a pain, huh, Lapis?” she asked while petting Aqua's head.
“ That's Aqua”said Ichigo as she laughed.
“(Word hopeless comes to mind right about now.Certainly better than…I wonder what they did after I died, did they even have a funeral? Did they even realize I was…I don't care anymore)” lapis thought to himself.
Later that night..
Lapis then woke up to see Aqua turn on the TV. He then got out of his crib and crawled over to him.
“Is the show that Mom’s on starting already?” he asks.
“ Yeah, they're talking to her right now” he answered as he was drinking from his bottle.
“Oh, right! Speaking of food, the other day my baby..” she said which made Aqua spit out his milk and Lapis look dumbfounded.
“My baby?” the host asks.
“Er,I mean my baby kitten!I got a pet during my rest period you see!” said Ai,nervously.
“Oh..”said the host.
“Nice save”said Lapis,deadpanned.
The show begins putting on an amazing performance,Aqua was mesmerized and so was Lapis.
“Wait!”
They both then turn to see their sister Ruby getting up for her crib.
“N Station already started! Why didn't either of you wake me up?!” she asked crawling out of her crib then crawled up to them.
“ Oh my God, Mama's just too cute! All the viewers should pay $1 million yen for this! Her expressiveness when she turns is outta this world! It's too eerie, it's like she's an Oni!” said Ruby.
“(I made a pretty interesting discovery, my brother and sister were also reborn just like me.and how did I make that discovery?)”
Flashback..
Lapis was just sleeping until he was woken up by yelling, he looks to see the Aqua and Ruby weren't in bed which had him a bit worried. He looked to see Aqua standing in the doorway.
“ Hey… do you share the same fate as me?” he asks.
“ Huh?”said Lapis.
“That baby just talked! Gross!”Ruby shouts.
“Right back at ya”said Aqua.
“ Another baby and another baby talking like it's actually normal, weird” said Lapis which made the both of them look at him.
flashback over…
“(In a way, it kind of reminds me of that cartoon I saw from the states.We're the talking babies just missing the talking dog.No matter how you look at it, we're a bizarre set of triplets)” Lapis thought to himself.
A week later…
As a two or done being breastfed, there was a stare down between Aqua and Ruby while lapis just stared at the both of them in disbelief. Ai isn't told that she has to go to work and kisses all three of them on the forehead then leaves.
“ Hey, could you show a little bit of restraint?”Aqua asks.
“ He has a point” Lapis comments.
“ Why? It's simply the law of nature for a daughter like me to suck her mother's breast. It's legit right that has been granted to me-”
“ Well let me ask… were you a girl in your previous life too?”Aqua asks.
“ Yep” she answered.
“ Could have hold me”said Lapis.
“Well, I suppose I can let it slide then”said Aqua.
“(That didn't take long)” Lapis thought to himself.
An hour later…
After Miyako got done changing Ruby’s diaper, she started to go on a rant which caught Lapis and Aqua’s attention.
“I didn't get married to be a damn babysitter!” she shouts.
“ What? Being able to serve mama should bring nothing but happiness, she's not right in the head, is she?” Ruby asks, a bit irritated.
“ Oh, hi Pot, names kettle, have we met?”Lapis mumbles.
“I can see the validity in what she's saying” said Aqua as Miyako fell to her knees.
“ Aah, you know, a scandal is being covered up here, isn't it?” she said which made the three gasp.
“That's it. If I sold the story to a weekly magazine, I could be swimming in cash… I don't give a crap what happens anymore- I'm gonna do it!” she shouts.
“ Uh-oh, not good. What's the call? Do we kill her?” Ruby whispers.
“ With what, baby hands?” lapis whispers back.
“ Plus she has the size advantage on us” said Aqua, who looked up to see both siblings looking at him.
“ I was just kidding, but you are actually serious about it?”Ruby asks.
“ Okay we just say this, we're not killing her”said Lapis.
“There's no question that this could be trouble if we just let it be, even so-”
“ Think of something fast cuz she's just pulled out her phone” said Lapis.
The three that saw her taking photos.
“I have an idea” said Aqua, who then Whispers it to Ruby and Lapis.
The three that got on the table.
“ Thy Hearts thirst cannot be quenched by champagne” said Aqua gaining the attention of Miyako.
“ Who's there?!” she shouts and confusion as she saw the three babies there.
“ I-I am a Divine messenger. Thy excesses… can no longer be overlooked” said Aqua, nervously.
“(Please let her buy this, please let her buy this, please let her buy this, please let her buy this,)” Lapis thought to himself.
“ A divine messenger? Wait a minute, that baby just talked…No way!” she said, nervously.
“ In the experience, are mere babies capable of speech? Believe in me” Aqua demands.
“ Well, it's just when you talk about the divine… I don't believe in that kind of stuff.Oh, I get it!This must be a candid- Camera thing! Like some TV show Ai-san is in where the prank the managers!Those are totally a thing!” she said nervously looking around.
“(We need something a little bit more to-)”
“Ruby-chan, it's dangerous for you to be-” she said as she tried to reach out to her but had her hand slapped away.
“ Behave thyself! I am an incarnation of Amaterasu. I am what ye called a god”said Ruby.
“God?” she said, backing up in fear.
“ Manipulated by prospects of immediate profit, thou art on the verge of abandoning thy destiny”said Ruby.
“(Destiny? )” Lapis wondered.
“My destiny..?”Miyako asks.
“ Hoshino Ai was chosen by the god of entertainment. Furthermore, those children that are triplets who bear a Monumental destiny. It is my destiny to keep guard over them.Thy deeds run contrary to the will of the Gods.Shut down not desist, Divine punishment shall be visited upon thee” said Ruby.
“Divide punishment? What do you mean?!In concrete terms! “ she shouts.
“ In concrete terms? Specifically-”
“ You'll die” said Aqua.
“ Eternal damnation” lapis adds.
“ Yes, die! Suffering Eternal damnation!” Ruby adds.
“ No! That's super concrete! What... should I do?” she asked, tearfully.
“It is simple, really. Guard the secret of their mother and us. Moreover, dote on these children and do everything they ask of thee” said Ruby.
“(Everything?)” Aqua and Lapis thought to themselves.
“Do thursley, and a second marriage to a handsome actor is not out of the question” said Ruby.
“ Seriously?!” she asked, cheerfully.
“(Well, we're actually going to get away with this)” Lapis thought.
“I'll do it!I'll do whatever is asked of me! I'll even lick their insoles if need be!” she shouts.
“ Thau doesn't need to go that far” said Ruby.
Later that night, as Ruby and Aqua slept. Lapis they crawled over to a phone and went to YouTube and typed up the name” Eien no” and scroll down until he saw a black haired young man with Amber eyes holding a guitar in front of a sidewalk.
“ Kind of weird, seeing your old self” said Lapis.
“So that's who you used to be?”
He then quickly turned around and saw Aqua.
“ Don't sneak up on me like that, but yes.I was into a lot of things, martial arts was one of my passions but I always preferred music.I saved up enough money to buy myself a guitar and taught myself.I found music to be the only escape, nevermind my parents were fighting...I played in front of a sidewalk, under a bridge, and just I made a demo… I collapsed at work, I heard the doctors whispering about it.Apparently a hit to my head, cost me my life” said Lapis.
“(A cerebral stroke)Sorry” said Aqua.
“ You got nothing to be sorry about. Besides, I like the second chance” he said as he crawled away.
