As you may know, Xion and Goemon aren't the biological sons of Shin, nor is Zircon Shin's grandfather. Though the two didn't have real children of their own, they loved the people they took care of as if they were blood relatives. Though they could be ruthless fighters, they have different parts inside of their hearts. No, this isn't exactly a Valentine's Day story that you'll tell your children. It is more of a story of family bonds beyond blood and DNA.
Xion, Goemon, Cyrus, and Milus were all rushed to the hospital for internal wounds. They were each put into aseperate room from the other patients to make sure that the others didn't get infections from them. They were treated instantly, and after a few hours, they just needed to rest. Shin stood near the beds of his two foster children, praying. Zircon opens up the door and puts a hand on his shoulder to reassure him that they would be safe and healthy in no time.
"They'll be just fine, Shin. We have to let them rest now or we'll delay their recovery." Zircon had said, leading Shin out of the room.
"It's my fault." Shin had sighed, tears were rolling down his cheeks.
"How so? If you had been more protective, it probably would've been worse. Let's just take a walk around Hyri for a while. They'll be fine by then." Zircon opened the door for Shin as they began to walk out of the hospital.
Seconds afterward, Xion had woken up. His heart pounded hard against his chest as he pushed the cold sweat covered covers from his body. He looked down at his bare chest. He then looked around the room, his eyes darted from left to right. The doctors came in, surprised at how quickly Xion had woken up from his sleep. Xion got up from the bed quickly, wrapping the covers around his naked lower body. Since his muscles weren't trained much after being extracted from Milus' body, he fell to the bed again.
"Who are you?" Xion asked somewhat calmly, not wanting his younger brother to wake up too early.
"We're your doctors of course. We came in to check on you." One of the doctors said calmly.
"You're a tough kid.. Some of the healthiest people never wake up until a few weeks after." The other doctor said.
Goemon and Cyrus woke up and groaned.
"What in the hell happened to us?" Cyrus asked.
"We're not exactly sure, but you will all need to rest some more before we'll get your muscles back into shape." Both doctors said in unison.
The three looked at each other and were somewhat happy, they didn't argue with the doctors, instead they slept again.
An hour later, Zircon and Shin return and they see the twins doing simple exercises like kicking they're legs and swinging they're arms. Xion, Goemon, and Shin then walked over foward to the other and they all hugged. Zircon had leaned on the wall, smiling. He was happy for Shin. Zircon was like a father to him.
An unsuspected visitor comes into the hospital and goes into the room that Milus is in. It's Chrys..... Milus wakes up to see Chrys walking away.
"Chrys...." Milus struggles to make his voice project.
"Fath--?" Chrys turns around to look at his father. There was a deep sadness in his eyes. He had thought that his father would die as his mother did.
"I'm sorry..." They both said in unison before Chrys walked over to the side of his father's bed.
