Chapter Text
The sun was covering Gen’s face, the warm feeling of the morning sun felt so good on his face. He moved and grabbed the soft blankets he was covered with and.. wait a minute, soft blankets, big pillow?
He open his eyes to see he was in an unknown room, a modern room to be more precise. A room before the petrification, big bed with blankets, big windows, a vanity and a big tv rested on the wall.
Gen started looking around this strange room, was he dreaming, nothing of this could be possible, tha last he remembers was that they were escaping from Stanley through the amazonas.
He decided to get out of bed to find out he was in pijamas, and he found a pair of slippers beside his bed exactly his size.
He started looking around for some clues of what was happening, it could be whyman?
They don't know the límits of his power, maybe he is trapped in an illusion of some sort.
But the room was just that, a normal room, it showed signs that someone was sleeping in the bed too, the other side was messy. Walking around he sat at the vanity that was full of used makeup, but what caught Gen’s attention was the top hat hanging on the mirror, also the white gloves around it. They were like the ones he used in the old world.
This was strange, Gen put the hat on his head and it fits perfectly. “It could be… no” he stops himself from thinking such ridiculous ideas. This is a trap, or some sort of dream.
He continues to explore the room only to find nothing, just clothes all around the room, a lot of them appealing to Gen's style if you ask him. If this was a room, there should be more rooms, maybe he could find some information about this situation.
He made it out of the room, but at the door he almost fell thanks to some toys?
It was a doctor's toy kit. So a kid must live here right. The hallway was full of different kinds of toys. Was he in the house of some family?
But how, how did he get here from the start, and did he feel so comfortable here? It doesn't make any sense. Senku says that the best way to understand a situation is locating the logical factors. Let 's see…
“We are home!”
A voice take Gen out of his thoughts, Senku, that a is definitely senku’s voice. Maybe the others were also trapped are this dream illusion things. Gen let out a sigh, that would make things easier.
“Senku!” Gen called the other man while running from were the sound came it looks like a living room.
“Gen?”
“Senku”, said gen to the other man's face, “ thank god you are here too”, he grabbed him by the shoulders, “do you think this is a trap, maybe whyman was responsible for this, and if you are here where are the others?”
“Gen are you okay?”
“Senku whaaa.. "Senku was looking at Gen with a worried expression, now that he sees the other man he looks different, he was definitely Senku, red eyes, green defying gravity hair, but he looks…older.. and without his face cracks.
Gen looks around trying to find something that gives him an answer, some clue, something, only to find nothing; it just looks like a normal living room, full of books, photos. He started to shake.
“Gen, stay here”, said Senku, supporting him. He takes Gen to the couch and sits down.
“Dadd”, a sudden voice takes Gen attention. “Papa, are you okay?” A little girl hugged his leg. Gen looked down, he saw a girl, around five years old, she was crying, looking at Gen with eyes full of fat tears rolling down her cheeks. She had big blue slim eyes.
“Your papa is fine”, interrupted Senku, "why don't you go finish that drawing you promised me the other so I can put it in my office with the others.”
He had never heard Senku talk and look at someone so softly, it sounded so sincere, it was weird, but he wanted to see it more.
The little girl looked at Senku, her eyes opened as she had forgotten something very important, “ah yes, the drawing I forgot”, and she rushed out of the room.
Gen was still shocked, he usually does really well at reading his surroundings and new people, finding his way out of situations, but he is just really confused. His brain isn't processing any of the things happening around him. The house, not Senku that was definitely Senku, the girl that looks awfully like him and…
“Hey mentalist are you still here?”
“Ah yes senku-”
“Good, have you been reading Ruri’s novels lately, what is the last thing you remember? “
Senku changed his tone completely, now he was talking like he was in front of some enigma trying to understand it. He was looking at him closely, like he was trying to find something. So he wasn't the only one in a strange situation. Good. So he decided he was going to roll with it. This didn't see threatening, for now.
“Well Senku-chan, the last thing I remember is that I went to sleep in the middle of the Amazonas running from Stanley. “
“Are you serious? This is not time for your mental games.”
“I am serious, where am I? And where is my Senku, and the others? . Why does it look like we came back to civilización? yesterday nothing of this existed.”Gen know it was stupid to ask all this questions but he couldn't think of something better in this situation, he was craving for answers, If this was a type of attack from a whyman he would discover it.
“Civilization, I can't believe this”, said Senku, taking his hand to his face, and started laughing like a maniac, as he usually does when he is about to say something crazy.” I can't believe I’m going by this deduction. What's your name?”
“Shouldn't you already know that my dear Senku-chan”
“Well mentalist, I do know the answer to that question but let's see if you do?”
What is he planning?
“I’m Ishigami Senku”
“Senku-chan you didn't need to said that I already know that. I’m Asagiri Gen”
“Asagiri…”said senku to himself.
“What, is something wrong with my name?”
“Well something like that” Said senku thoughtful.
“Now dear Senku-chan is my turn to ask you some question”
“Go ahead”
“How old are you? you look like my senku but..”
“Older?” guessed Senku.
“And who is the little girl? if you are willing to enlighten me” Deep down Gen already knows the answer but it was totally crazy, he wanted to hear it from the man.
“I’m 27 and that girl is Sora, our daughter, well, mine and my Gen’s daughter”
Mhh Gen was right, it was crazy, if this was a trap, they know really well one of Gen’s fantaisies. It was scary. He and Senku have something going on, he has been trying to formalize his feelings for the scientist for a long time but he isn't sure Senku wants that type of relationship and their current situation has no space for his stupid feelings. Seeing this perfect world where they live together, having a daughter is making him jealous, just a little.
“Your Gen Senku-chan, do you mind to enlighten me?” If Senku has an idea of what is happening, he will take it, Senku is Senku after all, he always wants to find solutions, he could trust.
“This will be difficult to explain mentalist, but if you already wake up 3700 years in the future from petrification anything could happen right? Another reality shouldn’t sound that crazy for you. You should get excited.”
“I need to make a call before explaining I think you would need her.” Said senku looking at his smartphone, Gen thought it would be a long time before he sees one.
“Need who?”
“Ruri, my sister” Said Senku, grinning like a brat. Waiting for Gen's reaction.
—---------------—
Senku and Sore left, they said they were bringing Ruri and left Gen at home. Gen was still confused at the part of Ruri been Senku 's sister. And the possibility of a different reality sounded as crazy as an alien on the moon petrifying humanity, so he will roll with that theory for now.
Gen decided to explore, if this was his home he would look at every corner of it. The kitchen, and living room looked good. It was obvious a little family lives here, the living room and the hallway were full of photos, so he decided to take a look.
The first was a really cute photo, it showed him, Senku and Sora smiling to the camera, Sora had Gen's top hat and a rabbit in her little arms, he was in full suit. They looked so happy and Gen was happy his other self of this reality was still a magician or that's what it looks like. Well maybe he was too jealous.
The next photo impacted Gen, it showed people he knew but it didn't fit quite right.
It showed him and Senku in what looks their wedding, full white clothes and Gen was holding a purple flowers bouquet. What surprised Gen were the people that a appeared with them in the photo. Kohaku, Ruri and Suika were wearing matching dresses and posing with them, but that was impossible. Also in the back of the picture was Lilian Winberg and a man that looks awfully like Senku, it must be Byakuya. Does Senku and the girls are family in this reality? He did said my sister Ruri.
“Well what a surprise” said Gen, now they are related to Senku in some way. This reality is full of surprises. And Gen wanted to see more.
Behind that a photo was another one, it showed Senku in his graduation though Gen, if the black robes and diploma said something. Gen smiled when he recognized the two men posing with Senku, Ryuusui and Ukyou. Gen felt relieved, even in this reality they were friends, but how? How would they even meet? Ryuusui was a millionaire, and Ukyou part of the marine, and they were years older than them.
He continued trought the hallway, he saw a lot of photos, some of them showed him, senku and sora, others were of Senku winning prizes or at presentations or Gen at his shows, Suika appeared wearing big round glasses in all the photos, she looked too cute, in this reality he guessed it would be too weird having a watermelon on the head. Another photo showed kohaku and what seems like Ginro and Kinro as teenagers holding a trophy, they are athletes in this reality. The brothers appear in big numbers of photos. Are they family too?
Yuzuriha and Taiju were in lots of photos too, Gen’s favorite was this one of their wedding, he wonders how long it would take them to get married in his reality.
The next picture capture Gen’s attention. It showed baby Sora, the kid had his same blue eyes and senku’s hair but with black tips. She was held by two men and….WAIT A GODDAMN MINUTE! Why were fucking XENO AND SATNLEY holding his baby? What they were even doing in a picture of this house. They seemed pretty happy looking at Sora. Gen and Senku were in the picture too, Gen felt strange looking at the picture, two men who had been trying to kill them were holding his baby.
“Gen we are back”
