From hartswap's AU

As in all other worlds, we have the Tenjous. We have Kaito, the elder, healthy and strong... And then Haruto, who was born frail and sickly, and seemed to only become more ill as time passed. Nothing in the world, it seemed, could change this, and it would come to the point where, desperate to save the life of his son, Dr. Faker would make a deal with a being from another realm...

However in exchange for what could 'cure' the boy, Faker was told that he would need to also burden the child with power from the Barian Realm, for which they would enact their side of the bargain. Discovering this however, Kaito would intervene.

'The treatment and the mission are unrelated, aren't they? Then let me take his place! He's already sick enough!' It was true. If someone took up the burden themselves, Haruto could easily take the treatment for his illness without suffering under the Barian energy...

And so, the swap was made.

Kaito would become the one drained of true senses, eyes sunken and glazed and body brimming with power.

And the younger, Haruto, would become the one to take on the mantle of the Numbers Hunter, shouldering the pain of his illness under Photon Mode for the sake of his brother.

For the most part, events are otherwise unchanged however...

And as it is, Kaito comes from a curious gap in time between when Tron attempted to take his power, and when he met Yuma.
