A/N: Well this is kinda unexpected for me to start a new story (in a new fandom) while I'm supposed to be in the middle of a writers block. I guess trying something new helped my mind to calm down and start working again, ahaha. I hope that you guys enjoy this little plot bunny of mine.

Just A Short Cisclaimer: I don't own Haikyuu. Only the plot bunny in my head.

The following chapter has been betaed by Snow Ryder.

The Hinata company is in verge of a bankrupt. In order to save the company the father has promised his daughter Natsu to marry into Kageyama family. But after unexpected circumstances the one standing on the altal and making the vow is the eldest son, Hinata Shoyo. How will Kageyama react to the news that the person he is married to is actually a man? And what excatly is he hiding from his husband? Can these two survive living together in the same house?

Cry Of A Fallen Crow
Prologue: Burned Wings

It was hot. His vision was blurry due to exhaustion and it was hard to breath. Flames surrounded him everywhere and his body itched, maybe there was a broken bone or even two? The pain was unbearable, his small figure did it best to support him and not fall.

The boy used the little of his strength he had left to open his eyes and look at his surroundings. Slowly he strolled down the path before him. His other leg was already numb so he had to drag it in order to advance. Flames surrounded him everywhere he looked. He was literally in the middle of a fire lake.

Where am I?

How he had ended up in this kind of situation, he didn't remember. The more he tried to remember the more his brain hurt. Just trying to bring up memories from a few seconds earlier would have his entire head and body hurt so much it was unbearable. So he had decided to stop trying to think of anything.

He breathed in for more oxygen but only carbon monoxide filled his lungs. His young mind had started to blank out and he fell down, his legs were unable support the weight of his small body anymore. Every inch of his body hurt. From the corner of his eye he could see his entire body was covered in blood. Was it his… or maybe someone else's?

Once again he tried to look around himself; maybe there was still someone with him? He tried to catch any movement to know that he wasn't the only living soul in this place. It was no use. The place was completely empty. No matter where he turned he could only see flaming wood. As if he was the only person in the whole area.

What is this place?

The boy fell down as his whole body went numb; it had finally reached its limit. His breathing was heavy and slow, as if every breath was a battle of life and death for him. His vision was getting black as he finally gave in. He didn't care anymore; he should just end his life here.

With death in mind, all of sudden he remembered his parents and younger sister. They were all dear to him, his beloved ones. A teardrop rolled down his cheek; he didn't want to be separated from them. He still wanted to live, but his mind and body longer had the will for it. It would just be easier to fall asleep and never wake up again.

Mom, Dad, Natsu… I'm sorry.

Just as he was about to close his eyes, the orange-head saw a dark figure walking towards him. The body was completely covered by a cloak so he didn't know if it was a woman or a man. It walked closer, somehow the boy could imagine as the figure was smugly smirking at him.

Who are you?

The smirk gave him the creeps, but on the other hand he was relieved. So he wasn't the only person wandering in that place. No matter how dangerous an aura the person was emitting, he was too tired to notice nor care about it. He wished that this unknown person would take him away from this place. He just wanted to be taken somewhere else; he wanted to get out of that place.

It was as if his begging was heard when the figure suddenly walked forward and the ginger head saw it slowly reaching toward him. A weak smile appeared on the boy's face. He tried his best to move his hand even a just little, but it was no use. He had finally lost all of his strength. As a response to the weak movement, his palm started to itch even more. All of a sudden a sharp pain entered his whole arm slowly expanding to his other body parts.

The attempt of the cloaked person was interrupted when two figures suddenly dashed before him. One of the small features he could recognize as his younger sister. Natsu was completely covered in mud, blood and cuts. Her face and hair were messed up as she took heavy breaths. She did her best to cover her arm which was wounded and flowing out blood, a thick blood trail was running down her cheek as if she was crying blood as well.

Natsu.

When it came to the other figure, he wasn't able to get a clear image. What he saw was a short black hair and childish body structure, most likely the person was a boy; but he couldn't be sure. For some reason the figure looked feminine, just like his sister. The person was also covered in mud and blood; they both had their clothes ripped off in various places.

He kept staring at the person, wondering who it was. He could understand that his sister would come to his rescue, but to think that someone else would as well. After all he was hated and bullied by other students and even teachers abused him, so why would someone other than his family care about him. He didn't understand it.

Who?

The dark figure backed off and started to laugh evilly. "What are you two doing, trying to protect him? He's nothing more than a useless vessel. Why do you struggle so much to protect him?" The voice was deep, but that was most likely due the ringing in his ears, he could barely make up what they were talking.

A small movement was made, which caught his attention towards his sister.

Natsu took few deep breaths and changed her posture so that her footing was steadier. "Because he's my brother!" She yelled her lungs out.

The ginger head smiled, his usually so aloof sister was actually being serious for once.

Tears rolled down Natsu's cheeks as she continued. "He's my big brother! We're family! I love him! Do I need anything more for me to want to protect him?" The girl's determined voice started vibrating as she lost her composure. She felt her legs betraying her and she fell to her knees. Big pearl like tears rolled down her cheeks, making her already dirty face even more soiled.

After hearing Natsu's words the figure then turned to look at the other child, waiting for an answer. The child remained silent for a while, but after glancing at Natsu drying her eyes, they finally spoke. "I only have one reason. It's because I lo-"

But the ginger head could hear no more. The ringing in his ears got louder and his eyes were closing rapidly. With his last amount of power he could only see the other child's mouth move, implying that the person was still speaking. With that his mind finally gave in and the boy passed out.

"SHOYO!"

A/N: Oh my, to think that the prologue got this long. I planned on writing more, but let's leave it here for now... Otherwise the chapter would've been too long X'D. I promise that the upcoming chapters are longer. Also, I have to say that the story will have dark themes and even character deaths (you have been warned). What more. Right, I would be very happy if you guys reviewed and told your opinion on the story. That would pump me up for the next chapter! ~ deshii
