Fireflies spin-off: Darkness Falls (Storyline)
Yami Sukehiro/Claire Polaris alternate storyline.
A spin-off to my Fireflies story. Instead of Claire finding herself in the drama between the Faust twins, she falls in love with Yami Sukehiro. This story would imply mature themes revolving their relationship. 
This spin-off stemmed out from the scenario where Claire chose to avoid Morgen after she realized she had feelings for him but spent more time with Yami in turn. As a result, Morgen and Claire’s relationship didn’t develop and Morgen didn't end up confessing to Claire. 
Claire and Yami would have a lot of shared moments together. However, as Claire was too focused on her own feelings for Morgen, she failed to see what Yami began to think of her. 
While the two of them had their fair share of arguments and bickering they also had moments where they showed mutual concern for one another. 
Yami found himself growing fond of Claire when he realized that she didn’t think of him badly like the rest of the locals who saw him as a foreigner who would bring bad luck. He also grew to admire Claire’s strength and determination. And saw the softness that showed through the cracks of her impulsive outbursts. 
Yami did something reckless one day and he was taken to the Healing Tower to treat his injuries. Claire was by his side the whole time and scolded him for what he did. 
He then felt how she cared so much for his well-being, and it touched his heart. For so long Yami felt so lonely since he washed up in Clover. Julius, Morgen, and Nacht might have been there for him, but Claire wouldn’t settle herself down until she was sure he had fully recovered. Claire stayed by his side till he could leave the tower. 
Yami thought he fell in love with Claire after that. Or maybe he had loved her even before, but it was at that time he admitted that feeling to himself. 
Shortly after Morgen’s death, Yami would visit a mourning Claire in her quarters and begin to talk to her how she needs to care for herself. He knew how harsh he sounded when he told her she needed to stop being so miserable. (Note: In the Morgen storyline, it was Julius who came to Claire’s room) 
Yami missed the Claire that had so much life in her. But now it was gone along with Morgen. 
Claire had been drinking the time Yami paid her a visit. She couldn’t remember how the next events came to be. But she remembered kissing him. When she woke up, they were in bed together. 
Claire couldn’t accept that something had happened between them at first. However, it didn’t just become a one-time thing. She found herself wanting to be with him more and more. 
Yami thought he was doing the right thing. Claire was going through a lot, and whatever arrangement they had made was supposed to help her move on. 
When Claire decided to leave the knights because of her mother’s health, Yami respected her choice. He would find time to visit Claire in the Forsaken Realm instead. 
After he heard that Lucina passed away, Yami would visit Claire in her home and would comfort her once more. 
She needed someone. And he was there for her. He couldn’t bring his feelings into words but he showed it. He held her close. He kissed her. And he made love to her. 
However, Yami would wake up alone in bed. A letter was left behind for him from Claire. 
The letter reads, “Yami, by the time you are reading this letter I would have left Clover already. I know this is sudden but please don't even try to find me. You are a great person. To all of us who believe in you know that you are capable of many things. Make that squad you've dreamed about. Find lost people. And most of all find someone who can return the love for all you are worth and more. 
When mom passed away, I knew I wouldn't be able to handle losing another person important to me. My heart is far too broken and numb that I don't think it would be able to care for another anymore. You are far too kind, and you deserve someone better than me.  
I've had many regrets in life. But I'll never regret the time I spent with you. Thank you, Yami. For being there, and for taking care of me.” 
Yami was left heartbroken. He crumpled her letter in his hands. Then he would return to the Grey Deers and Julius would ask about Claire. In which he would answer that Claire isn’t coming back. 
[Claire’s Spade events continue as per Night of the Fireflies. After which Yami and Claire would eventually have their reunion after 10 long years]
