The battle was gruesome, the memory was faint and so chaotic. All the boy could remember was his twin sister, Powder, singing while they walk across the bridge on fire in search of there parents. "Dear friend across the river." She sang. "My hands are cold and bare."

They walked for what felt like ages. Vi walking in between the blue haired twins, which was the only resemblance between the two, (Y/n) on her right walking with his arms around himself, shaking in fear and adrenaline; and Powder on her left, holding her sisters hand while with her other hand covering her eyes as she sings some more.

The three walk by a body leaning up against the barrier on the bridge. "Our homes are built of stone." Powder sings. "So come across the river and find..." Vi has stopped walking, making the other two stop as well, also causing powder to stop singing. Powder is curious and opens her eyes, looking at her brother and sister first, taking notice that they both are wide eyed at the chaos that is right in front of them.

Shell shocked, Vi's grip tightens around powder's hand and grabs (Y/n) and pulls him closer. The boy only looks at the disaster, He can't seem to get his eyes to look away. A noise breaks his trans, sounds like pounding of metal on metal and grunting from an older man.

Their vision was blocked by smoke and embers but the boy could see a figure, a man. He was tall and big. He stood up and turned to look at the three kids, Powder moved over to her brother holding on to him tightly as Vi pushed them both behind her slightly. The man starts walking towards the kids, (Y/n) could notice more details about him the closer he got, He had a beard and his hair was brown colored but also messy, the young boy looked at the tall mans hands and noticed he had metal gloves. The boy knew this man as Vander, the one who lead their people into battle.

The man stood over the kids and Vi looked back and forth looking for their parents. The older man closed his eyes and sighed, knowing who these kids belonged too. He motions his head in a direction to his left. Vi looks in that direction first, then (Y/n) and noticed two bodies laying on the floor, He couldn't tell who they were due to the amount of smoke.

The kids move a little closer and the smoke clears. There they are, their parents, dead. (Y/n) is shocked but then feels the tears start to shed, he hears his older sister sob and then collapse as she mourns, the twins move in and give her a hug as the three shed tears and mourn for their parents. 

The next thing the boy heard was two loud bangs, like metal hitting concrete. Only to be picked up by Vander with his twin sister while Vi walks hand in hand with him. He carries the two and leads Vi across the bridge back to the underground city. (Y/n) looks at his older sister, noticing her look back at the disaster that they are leaving behind. The young boy could see the anger build up in her and the sadness of all the people we lost.

(Y/n) then felt exhausted, his eyes felt heavy and he couldn't keep them open for much longer. The blue haired boy yawns and falls asleep in Vander's arms as he takes the three siblings back home.
