Dearest Ann,
What would you do if you ever came across more than one of your sister Alice? How would you treat each and every one of them? Would you consider one of them the "original" Alice and look for her among them all?
If it ever happened to me, and you needed to find me among a large crowd, I strongly believe you would be able to find me.
I would look for you too.
Arranging for ten Suns to live in the Holy Temple was no easy feat. The first suggestion was for all of them to stay in Sun's room, even though it would get crowded, but it was actually one of the Suns who turned the suggestion down.
The Sun who had pointed his sword at us shook his head and sternly said, "You don't know us. You don't know how this situation came to be. You should watch us better than that."
We'd all stared at him, stunned. Was this actually Sun? The way he had held his sword was much more masterful than I ever recalled, and I just couldn't imagine Sun saying something like that in such a tone.
I was probably not the only one who immediately crossed this Sun off the list of possibilities of being our Sun. That left us nine other Suns to consider.
Because of his words, we decided to each take one Sun under our wing. That way we could watch them more closely, get to know them better, and protect them better too.
The Sun that seemed the most normal got assigned to Judgment. He said not a word when it happened and merely turned in the direction of Judgment.
One of the white haired ones who had covered his hair up with holy element got assigned to Moon. Upon studying him more closely, I realized he seemed to look more mature than the Sun I recalled, but that could very well be a result of Resurrection.
The other white haired Sun who had covered his hair up with holy element got assigned to Blaze. He had smiled at Blaze, a perfect Sun Knight smile on his face, though it was actually somewhat stiff for a smile, as if it had been too long since he had smiled like that. His clothing was rather plain.
The white haired Sun who had not covered his hair up with holy element got assigned to Cloud. I was surprised that he'd turned and greeted Cloud with no problem whatsoever. He didn't seem to have any difficulties locating him. His clothes were rather robe-like.
Though each one of them reacted a little differently than what I recalled of Sun, I thought these Suns resembled our Sun the most.
The one with black hair was also a possibility. He got assigned to Metal. He was overflowing with dark element, just like the time he'd absorbed all the dark element from the Valley of Trizer and when he had battled against Charlotte earlier. Could this be our Sun?
Next, there was another Sun who looked fairly like our Sun, but he hadn't known us and had questioned our identity. His clothes were a lot less layered than what Sun normally wore, a casual black vest and white shirt. I noticed that he'd been glancing around, taking in his surroundings in confusion. He had been especially startled upon seeing me and Ice. At first, I considered that he might have amnesia, but then his blue eyes landed on me, giving me a jolt. He was likely not our Sun because of it, but I couldn't be more relieved to learn that this Sun could see. We put him with Ice.
All the rest of the Suns seemed too different to be our Sun, but we could never rule out the possibility that a side effect from Resurrection might be what had caused the dissimilarities. I never thought I'd ever see Sun with short hair. It only came down past his chin. He got assigned to Storm. Short haired Sun had his arms folded and didn't seem to like the arrangement.
The Sun with curly, wavy hair got assigned to Earth. He had looked at Earth with a strange expression. In fact, he'd observed all of us with a strange expression, eyes lingering in disbelief on Judgment. This Sun actually looked a bit younger than the rest, and the way his hair curled reminded me of Sun's teacher, Neo. Like the Sun who had questioned our identity, his clothes were a lot less layered than I was used to seeing. In fact, the sleeves were so short, his arms were showing!
Regardless of what he was wearing, when his eyes landed on me, I gave him a smile. Here was likely another Sun who could see!
The sword wielding Sun was the first I'd crossed off the list. Even though he looked like our Sun more than many of the others, he just behaved too differently from Sun. He got assigned to Stone.
That left me the Sun with blue hair. He had been the one nearest to me, the one I'd randomly pulled to hug. He hadn't pulled away or anything when I'd done so, which I was thankful for. In fact, he had even brought his arms around me and hugged me back. His hair was just as long as the usual length I recalled on our Sun, except it was blue.
I couldn't fathom why Sun would ever dye his hair blue. The Sun I knew was too attached to his blond hair to do something like that. Even the color scheme of his clothes was different from his usual white and gold.
Since he was the Sun assigned to me, it was up to me to figure things out!
As we walked toward my room, we exchanged questions to figure out which parts of our histories intersected. While we were confused over having ten Suns, it must be just as confusing, no, even more confusing for them to be in this situation. Just as we were trying to figure out if they were our Sun, they were probably trying to figure out if we were their Twelve Holy Knights. For most of them, at least. The one assigned to Ice didn't seem to know us.
"You look a little older than I remember," Blue-haired Sun said.
"Really?" I asked as I opened to the door to my room. "How old are you?"
"I just assumed office," was his answer.
"That happened four years ago for me!" I exclaimed. Does this mean he might be a younger version of our Sun? But that still wouldn't explain his blue hair. Was there any point in time when Sun dyed his hair blue... I gestured at the room. "Here's where you'll be staying. It's nothing much."
Since Sun had gone missing, we had been too busy evacuating the citizens, searching for Sun, and then devising a plan to battle against Charlotte and Stephen that I had rarely returned to my room. For the past month, I was always worried about Sun's whereabouts and well being. I had only ever stopped by my room to grab supplies before I would be out there again, doing anything I could to help. There had been no time for rest or peace, and definitely no time to tidy my room. It was just as I had left it -- super messy.
I tugged on the corner of blue-haired Sun's shirt to remind myself that we had gotten Sun back. Even though we hadn't expected we would end up with ten Suns, Sun was Sun. I never ever wanted to ever see Sun so lifeless again. Unfortunately, the sight of Sun on top of that conference table in blood soaked clothes was one I doubted I would ever be able to forget.
Blue-haired Sun gently laid his hand on mine. Then, he closed his hand around mine and pulled me into the room. He took a quick glance around and exclaimed, "Your room still looks the same!"
"Do you think of me as a messy person?" I couldn't help but ask. I'm usually not this messy!
Instead of answering, he pulled me right over to where I had my straw dolls. I usually had them stashed away, but I hadn't been able to clear anything because of my time away.
"Well, you always have your voodoo thingamabobs everywhere, nails here, strands of hair there. This is no different. Oh is that one of me?" He pointed at the straw doll of Sun I had taken out to pray for Sun's safety. He peered at it curiously.
"Ah yes," I replied. "That's the one of you, Sun."
"Sun, huh..." he mumbled. "No wonder the doll has my original hair color. And from all those other 'mes' I saw, I take it I'm the anomaly?"
"So you're not Sun?" I asked in a small voice. Even though I had asked, I was starting to think that instead of this being a younger version of our Sun, he was probably someone different altogether.
Without answering out loud, he turned and reached a hand up. Was this his answer? I blinked when he moved to tuck a strand of my hair behind my ear. My eyes were still stuck on his hand when he leaned in closer to me and whispered next to my other ear, "Leaf, I knew you were cute, but I didn't know you'd grow up to look so fine!"
Then, he stepped back and winked at me, like how Storm always tried to wink at girls.
My jaws dropped. I had considered it, but to me, Grisia was the Sun Knight. How could he ever be... "You're the Storm Knight?"
Then, to him, who was Sun?
to be continued
Have I confused any of you yet? XD I had to borrow Angel-Rei-chan1's list myself to make sure I had everything right, haha.

^ Coming from 15B, who hopefully is not a source that will give you a virus-y link.
I think fanfiction.net would probably censor out a link like that, and I would be too lazy to type out that whole thing, so I'm using that to base my own assumption that you would be too lazy to do that as well.
Content of the link: A spreadsheet on our ten little Suns who have names arbitrarily assigned to them for now. They're listed as they appear in Ch2, if that makes anything clearer.
The link should be set to "anyone with the link can see it," but I'm not very experienced with Google stuff, so if it won't let you in, I probably did something wrong.

Yeah, the link would end up all weird on ffnet.
