Dear Someone.
Oh for the love of God. Or the love of whatever you believe in.
Aster and Astra were twins, seperated at birth. Aster was taken by Kiddo while the girl Astra was taken by Hikari and Erza. But they were not ordinary twins. Soon after the twins were seperated and grew up separately in different parts of the world, but their guardians soon vanished when both of them turned 15.
Aster set out on foot, being guided by the moon, and so did Astra, following the path of the stars. They had no intention of finding each other, they were just out to explore the world. If only they had known fate had greater plans.
On Aster's way he met Rye, a mysterious young girl. Something triggered his hidden instincts, and he felt compelled to protect Rye. But he could not spend much time with her. The girl wanted to go her own way, unsure of Aster, but still spoke as if they were linked by a bond. Aster made sure on her word, promising himself he wouldn't let anything hurt her. He rarely made a promises in his life, but the only times he did, he would fulfil them.
Astra was afraid of the world, but she met another one who was also travelling and bored. So bored that this person could only talk about being bored. She was Zubat, and was the second member of Astra's party. The nights went by and Astra found a good friend in Zubat.
One day, she reached a forest. There was a stranger lying on a branch in the canopy above, seemingly asleep. On Zubat's suggestion, Astra called out to him, only to be greeted by a falling banana. "Hey! what gives?!" Astra yelled. "That was such an uninteresting way to call someone. Try again." the stranger, Aster said. It took a couple of tries from Astra, advice from Zubat, and the descent of nearly a dozen bananas before Aster told Astra what words she should choose before he got down.
They talk for a while, until out of nowhere appear Kiddo, Erza and Hikari. But they are being chased by She Who Must Be Named aka a girl called Nara-chan. A liar, insensitive and out to get all the boys in the world because she had a tough life not caring what others have been through. Aster had a run-in with her before and could only conclude that as long as she had a few people she could get along with, she cared not for the emotions of feelings of others, but boys only.
Sighing, Aster walked away, not enjoying the reunion with anyone, off on a search to find Rye. The world burn down for all he cared. But he was intercepted by Kiddo who told him to apologize to Nara and simply be her friend. The prospect terrifed Aster. He had tried before and more than once. Sad at heart for the unwarranted hatred he got, nothing to prove he wasn't hated, Aster stopped.
There were two more people, Maru and Soju, with Nara. They wanted to take off with Astra for some unknown reason. This Aster could not stand and ran away with Astra, meeting up with an innocent youth called Prem. Together they took off for Japan.
