《Prelude of Love》Chapter 1: Nine Years Later

Yumoto was fast asleep in his bed, Wombat jumped onto his bed. "Yumoto! Wake up!"

"Wom-san..." Yumoto pouted in his sleep and Wombat looked at him. "Kinugawa-san will be coming in and if you're not awake, he'll be angry."

Yumoto rolled over and Wombat sighed. "Argent won't be happy to hear about this!"

Yumoto frowned and his door opened, "Yumo-chan!" Atsushi's voice called and Yumoto pouted as Atsushi looked at him, "Yumoto-kun, get out of bed."

"Noooooooo."

"Yumoto! Your big brother won't be happy if he knew you were still in bed!"

"Atsushi!!!"

"Yumoto, it's Epinard when you're in training."

"Then I'm Scarlet!"

"Fine, Scarlet, get out of bed."

"...okay..."

"Caerula Adamas want to see you. Especially Aurite..."

"Aurite...really?" Yumoto asked and Atsushi nodded, "Yes, really. So get out of bed, he won't be happy if you're late."

Yumoto sighed as he got out of bed. "Is...is An-chan busy today?"

Atsushi's face fell, "Yes...he is."

"Oh...okay." He sighed and got ready.

"Scarlet, where are you going?" Atsushi asked as Yumoto looked at him, "I wanna see Ibu-chan-senpai before seeing Aurite..."

"Alright, I'll tell Aurite you'll be a little late..." Atsushi smiled and Yumoto sighed.

Wombat followed Yumoto, the once six-year-old hadn't carried around his wombat plushie for a few years, but it was still located on a shelf in his room.

Yumoto sighed as he opened the door to see Ibushi. "Oh! Little One, are you okay?" Ibushi asked and Yumoto sighed, "Gora-an-chan never has time for me anymore."

"Well as Maximum Gorar he is very busy, you know." Ibushi explained and Wombat looked at Yumoto, "Yumoto-kun, one day you will be like that."

Yumoto frowned, "I don't wanna be like that! I want to be just myself! I can't even transform like everyone else!!"

Ibushi sighed, "Little One, remember what I told you? You will not awaken as Scarlet until you are needed."

"But when will that be!? I want to transform, Ibu-chan-senpai!" Yumoto cried and Ibushi sighed, "Don't worry, Scarlet, you will awaken as him soon. Your true from will come to you."

"But aren't I a God of Love too?"

"Yes, you are."

"Argentttt~!" A voice yelled and Ibushi smiled. "Yes Perlite?"

"Scarlet is needed by Aurite!" Akoya giggled as he appeared besides Ibushi. "Scarlet, Aurite is getting annoyed with you never coming to him on time."

Yumoto sighed, "Fine...I'll go."

He turned to the white door, and looked down at the pure white floor. The entire room was bright white, but had crystal walls. "A-Argent...? Why do you guard this room?" Yumoto asked and Ibushi looked at him, "Well...Little One, I have to protect this room because this room leads to the mortal world."

Yumoto nodded, "Oh...okay." He then finally walked out with Wombat.

"Yumoto."

"Oops..." Yumoto whispered, "S-Sorry, Ryuu-senpai!!"

Ryuu sighed and Io was standing beside him, "Scarlet, Aurite has been looking for you."

"I know..."

"So get to him." Io replied and Yumoto nodded as he slowly walked to Kinshiro.

"Scarlet." Kinshiro spoke and Yumoto looked down. "I'm sorry...I was talking with Ib-I mean...Argent."

"Scarlet, I'm here to talk with you about your powers..."

"W-what about them?"

"Have they awakened yet?"

Yumoto looked down in shame, "N-no...they haven't..."

Kinshiro sighed, "Alright...thank you for telling me...You may go back to being with your guardians."

Yumoto nodded and walked back to where En and Atsushi were.

Kinshiro sighed as he walked to where Gora was at and bowed his head down, "Maximum Gorar...your brother's powers still haven't awakened yet."

Gora sighed, "Aurite, they have to be awakened soon. He's almost sixteen."

"I know..."

Gora looked at him, "We need to figure out why they haven't yet."

Kinshiro nodded, "Yes I know. I think I know why though. Wombat just needs to give him his lovaraclet. He needs to try to awaken as Scarlet."

"Aurite, it doesn't work like that...his powers will awaken on their own."

Kinshiro nodded again, "Of course. They will awaken when it's ready."

Yumoto was sitting outside on a swing and felt tears filling his eyes...why couldn't he transform!? Wombat looked at him, "Yumoto-kun, why are you crying?"

"I-I can't transform like the others still! What if those kids were right when I was little?!"

"What do you mean?"

"When I was little, these two twins would tell me that Gora-an-chan wasn't my real brother and that I would never have a true form!"

Wombat sighed, "You will! Remember what Argent told you! Little One, remember you will not awaken until you are needed!"

Yumoto looked down and Wombat jumped onto his lap, "You are Maximum Gorar's little brother, you are the next God of Love, and you are Battle Lover Scarlet!"

Yumoto jumped as he heard laughter, "Aki, remember him?"

"Ah, yes I do, Haru."

Yumoto quickly stood up and his eyes widened, "Y-You're the two who bullied me!"

"Yes we are...now we're going to get rid of you, so we can show Maximum Gorar that we're far more superior." Haruhiko smirked and Wombat growled at them. "Oh how scary, Haru." Akihiko mocked and Wombat looked at Yumoto.

"Prince Scarlet, go back inside."

"Bu-But Wom-san!"

"Go!"

Yumoto nodded and quickly bolted away. He gasped as Akihiko appeared in front of him. "Don't let him awaken!" A small green flying squirrel yelled and Yumoto's eyes widened as Wombat jumped to protect him.

"WOM-SAN!" Yumoto screamed as Wombat was thrown to the side of him and hit the ground. Yumoto growled and Haruhiko gasped as Yumoto began to glow scarlet. "H-How dare you...!" Yumoto screamed and the twins gasped.

Ibushi turned around as he felt a presence. "Little One..." he gasped, "Akoya! AKOYA! He's awakening his powers!"

Akoya gasped and yelled, "I'll go get his brother!"

Kinshiro looked at him, "I'll get At-chan! You go to him and make sure he's okay, Arima!"

Ibushi nodded and the three Caerula Adamas disappeared.

"S-Scarlet!" Wombat gasped out and Yumoto's eyes widened as a lovaraclet appeared on his wrist. "Don't you dare transform!" Haruhiko hissed and Yumoto looked at them, "Why not?"

"B-because!"

"Yumoto!" Four voices yelled and Yumoto turned around to see the four other Battle Lovers. The youngest had tears fill his eyes as he saw his big brother running with Kinshiro and Akoya. "NO!" Haruhiko cried as Yumoto began to transform.

"My-My twins, we should leave now before Maximum Gora learns that you attacked Scarlet!"

"Of course Dadacha..."

The two looked at one another and quickly teleported away.

"Ibu-chan-senpai! Ibu-chan-senpai!!" Yumoto cried, "I transformed, look!" He giggled as he ran to Ibushi and hugged him.

The older man smiled at him, "Yes you did..." He put a hand on the youngest's head and Yumoto let go and ran to Gora. "An-chan! An-chan!" He yelled, "Look~!!"

Gora smiled "I see." He looked at Kinshiro. "I told you he'd awaken, Aurite."

"I see that now. My apologies, Maximum Gorar." Kinshiro apologized and Gora nodded, "It's alright."

"Yumoto, now that you have transformed into Scarlet, it's time for you to train alongside us." En smiled and Yumoto nodded, "Alright!"
