Xiao Zhan's POV:

I am so excited to surprise my Angel tonight, that I reach home a tad bit early. I did tell him that I'd be going out with my brothers, so he would not be expecting me. As I enter home I go to the kitchen and deposit all the groceries that I bought. Tonight I'll be cooking for my Angel.

As I turn around, I freeze. I hear some faint music. It's like a magnetic pull. I follow the music which then leads me to the basement. The door is slightly ajar and I push it.

Those notes. I clutch my heart. With a deep breath, I enter. When I see Angel sitting on the ground, playing the instrument, my heart shreds.

My vision blurs. Those notes. I have heard them before. It's so painful. My breathing labours. I try to call his name but in vain.

My heart. It's burning. My vision clouds. I am sucked into a vortex and what I see, makes me fall.

A man in white robes, long hair, delicate head piece playing an instrument and another man next to him, dark raven hair, black red robes playing a flute. When they open their eyes and look at me, my body gives out and I black out.

The last thing I hear is "Xiao Zhan!"

Wang Yibo's POV:

"Xiao Zhan" I yell. Watching him fall unconscious, is not something I ever want to see. Placing my Zither beside, I quickly run to him and place my hand below his head and catch him before he hits the ground.

Blood.

He's bleeding from his nose and mouth. Wei!!!

I call him but he isn't answering.

I pick him up and walk upstairs to his bedroom. Placing him gently, I quickly dial my brothers number.

"Kid"

"We...i... He's unconscious. He... Is bleeding" I breathe out.

"I'll be right there. I'll call Dr. Simon Hue right away".

I go and sit beside Wei and softly place his head on my lap. I wipe his blood away only for more to spout out.

What happened Wei? Why, why did you come down?

"Lan Zhan" he murmurs. My heart stops.

"Wei?" I whisper softly trying to wake him up but he remains still.

I don't know how long has it been since I have been staring at my Wei, but the next moment my brother shakes my shoulders lightly to seek my attention. "Dr. Simon is here". I look up and nod my acknowledgement. I gently place his head back and leave the room.

"What happened Wangji?" The concern is clear in my brothers voice.

"He heard me play Wangxian on the Zither" I say slowly and look at Wei's bedroom door. I hear a slight gasp from my brother.

"Do... You think his memories are back? He called me Lan Zhan" I whisper sadly.

My brother wipes my lone tear and gently encourages me "whatever it is, we'll all be there for Wei Wuxian this time" he too looks at the door "I promise, history won't repeat. You've suffered enough, Wangji".
---

I am back to sitting beside Wei and hoping he'd be back soon. Dr. Hue informed us that there is no problem, just fatigue and that he needs to rest. I had called his brothers as soon as Dr. Hue left and they're out there talking to my brother.

---

"Lan Zhan!!!" Wei thrashes suddenly "Don't" he screams and I try to wake him up, but when that doesn't work out, I slowly lie down beside him and take him into my arms. "I am here Wei, I am here" I keep repeating until he calms down.

He keeps murmuring my name.

The door bursts open and I find all our brothers staring at us. I give them a nod that I got this and they smile and leave.

Kissing his forehead I pray that he comes back to us. Back to me.

A/N: From this part on, we shall be see Zhan Zhan witnessing whatever had happened to him in his previous lifetime. So he'd be a third party actually witnessing certain important parts.

Let's begin!

Xiao Zhan's POV:

Where am I? What is this place? Who are these people?

"Shijie!" Someone calls and I turn around. I freeze. Is that... Is that me?

Who are these people?

I follow them, and see... Shijie. Memories of envelope me. Our childhood. She feeding me. My heart.

We reach... Is this Cloud Recess?

Him

Lan Zhan the name whispers.

Our first sight. Our first heart beat.

Yibo

My head starts to ache with all these memories. I cry out. What's happening?

It all goes blank.

---
I am yet again dragged into a vortex and I find, myself at the edge of the cliff.

Lan Zhan's there right in front of me, holding my hand. The pain in his eyes.

A man beside him, stabbing me. Me leaving Lan Zhan's hand.

Falling...

Lan Zhan, I shout.

I feel a warm body enveloping mine.

Warmth.

---

How long has it been since I have been in this dream like state.

I hear the faint music.

Wangxian.

I gasp.

---
Wang Yibo's POV

He gasps and wakes up.

"Wangxian" he coughs "play me Wangxian"

"Wei" I try to placate him.

"Take me back there" he rasps.

Unable to do anything else, I pick his frail self and take him to the basement.

I know our brothers are worried but they don't follow us.

Placing him next to me on a low seater, I find my Zither just the way it was. I pick it up and play the first note.

His breathing labours, his body tenses as the notes crecendo and his eyes are tightly shut. He clutches his heart and blood oozes from his nose.

"Chenqing" he rasps.

I quickly bring it out and place it in his hand.

"Play...t.o.get..her" he places the flute in his lips and plays the first note.

Together we play Wangxian...

In front of my eyes, he transforms. No longer is he in pain. Just the opposite. Radiance glows within him. No longer is he wheezing. His posture is that of the Yiling Patriarch that I once knew.

The music stops. He places the Chenqing on his lap. He opens his eyes. I gasp. They're red with emotions.

"Long time, Lan Zhan"

He's back.

Phew. Well there you go. Has Zhan Zhan gotten back all his memories wait and find out.
