The 'Family' are having a very awkward dinner to be exact, each and everyone of them are too busy doing their work until questions break the moment. 'So, tell me. Why are the two of you accepted here. Second, Zeille what do you mean you scatter everyone to find their own path? Third, where is the master of this castle. Fourth, what do you mean I can't choose my destiny? Fifth Why do you mean by foster sisters, who is the other one'.
Zeille takes a sip before he gets to continue.'Well.... I will answer my question, the rest Mom will takes the responsibility to answer'. He looks over to his mother, luckily his mother agree on that. 'But this might not be a great place to discuss such important matters. Time to unwind the mysteries of your journey my dear. Meet me at the auditorium right after you finish your meal. I will prepare the necessary requirements for the presentation'.
Just a minute or two Haru already left the Dining Hall, not long after her, the two 'Children' follow her steps. 'Do you mind, giving me some information before we are arrive there?'. Zeille looks his little sister straight in her eyes, she is desperate and he knows it.
'Well, I can't tell you much but I will try my best to answer your question'. June stop in her track, she looks towards the shining white moon, half covered with shadows. 'Do you promise on that?'.
'Why wouldn't I?'. June looks at him with piercing blue eyes 'Because I don't trust you. I don't trust betrayers'. She continues to walk leaving him behind with guilt ripping his soul apart, I wouldn't blame her if she is furious. It never was her fault anyway. Reluctantly, Zeille follows June steps from behind. He already catch up to her with just a few steps, she looks like slowing on purpose.
'Do you care to tell me the full prophecy?'.
Zeille nod, if this is satisfying for her than I will tell her ' A long time ago, there were two sisters fighting. The young one hated her older sister very much but I don't know the reasons why. As far as I know, every millennium the prophecy begins again, revolving again and again non stop. But this time, the phase were broken.'
'The phase were broken?'.
'Yes, it seems like, the young princess will have a chance to recreate her own destiny. The key to her full darkness was destroyed by a warrior. The warrior I believe was named Wyra. She is the leader of the seven guardian of Echantros'.
'What was the key to the little princess darkness?'.
'A demon.'
'A demon?'. Zeille sigh as he tries his best to reminisce the bits he found at the sanctuary and the Arcana also the ruins library. 'A demon that controls Humans heart. The demon delete all the light from the little princess heart and all her precious memory for infinite. It's indestructible, the only way to destroy it was cease the demon from existence. Wyra have a special spell to do the exact thing but at a cost of her own life'.
'So she bargain her life for me?'.
'Yes, she did. I also found out that she was once a member of the guild Fairy Hunter. Fortunately, she cease the existence of that demon twelve years ago. The exact same time of your power to grow tremendously. I believe she had foreseen the future when she lay her life. Wyra isn't someone who play the double edge sword for no clear reason, especially when she is in love with someone'.
June rub her forehead, what she heard is too much for her brain to take in but she is satisfied with the answer she gets. Zeille push open the wooden ice door. Inside it's nothing more than a place for colleagues classroom. She sees Haru on the center stage, she wears a beautiful icy dress that reaches her ankle, She wears a pointy tiara with diamond ice earrings. 'I see, Zeille had tell you some of the stories about the prophecy'.
June takes a sit and slightly nod her head. 'I can't tell you everything but I certainly can tell you this. After the prophecy revolves, everyone who were included in the prophecy begin to sleep. Only the chosen one will be excluded.'
'I was that person. In every fight I witness I have foreseen to many disaster, on the last revolves I decide to scatter everyone so the dark ones will find their way to light. More or less it works except for the young princess, I couldn't do a thing when I heard her fate were sealed, but this time I swear I'm going to help you to change that.'
'Tch, you never did change a thing', June murmurs. Zeille were taken back when she murmurs the sentence, a bit of himself start to blame the cause to him.
'Apart from that, the question about why we are accepted here is because, during ancient times before the last revolve dragon and human are great companions. Like I said to you when I healed you three days ago. But after judging from the damage we had done working together are immense, too much to fix in the time being. After awhile, the humans were fed up with the damage and start blaming the dragons'.
'It's true we have this destructive behavior inside of us but the ones who gives us command were humans. All in all, they bring the destruction to themselves. Pointing fingers are their bad side, after putting up with the mockery and such we decided that the partnerships is over and decide to never see them again. That is why we banned human from entering out land. They maybe the ones to complete ourselves but they are the ones to stain us.'
'I want to ask you this Haru. You are a human but why are you sided with dragons?'. Haru fake cough 'That is because I understand them and I'm part of them'. June sigh, she agrees with Haru's resolution.
'The reason why I and Mother were accepted here are our powers. After the last bickering between humans and dragons, only dragon tamer can set foot on this land. I'm an Iron fire dragon tamer, Mom is ice dragon tamer. Just because of that we were able to live here peacefully'.
'Then, explain to me why am I considered your foster sister. Wait fix that, who are your foster sisters?'.
'I explain to you about the whole I was chosen thing, using that ability. On the last revolve I take the two of you with me using the permission of your true guardian at that time. I promised him that I wouldn't let the history repeats itself again. That's why I considered you as my foster sisters. After a while I grew fond with the two of you. Nevertheless, after three years of living together a disaster happens. I can't recall the moment very well but what I know, your older sister was suck to the other dimension, the human dimension'.
Haru step up, her son has remembers the tragic moments and he could not talk more of it. As their foster mother she need to continue the story. 'After the disappearance of your big sister our land was attacked by the army of darkness. In the end we send you to the orphanage in hope you will change there but we never expect for you to sink deeper in the ocean of darkness'.
'The name of my big sister?'.
'Layla, Layla frostbite or Hikari Layla'.
'So I kept the surname all this time'.
'Yes, precisely'. June stand up and slammed her hand on the desk 'That is the stupidest thing I had ever heard. Don't you think it's more logical if my surname were change instead of my big sister? First I stay here where it makes me vulnerable to darkness plus the surname makes me even more easy to target. So I wonder why my name isn't change to something else?'. June cross her arm, she look at Haru and Zeille with doubtful eyes.
She didn't mean to be such a fuss for something that little but it's her urging feeling of jealousy make her do it. With confidence eyes Zeille reply 'To protect you from the darkness, to remind you of what path you should choose also to remind you about the cursed path of dark'.
'Hikari means light. You want me, keep saying those words so I will snap the hell outta my little self and start to realize that I was on the wrong path?'.
'Yes. If that satisfy you, please give us you resolve. We really want to help you with this, plus this might be the chance of a life time for you to choose your own way. Let us help you'. June sigh, agreeing to their condition now might not be a great idea with her head too mess up. 'Give me a night to rethink this through, tomorrow I will give you my resolve'.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She slammed herself on the bed, twisting and turning but nothing seems to help her doze off into slumber land. She look outside, the half moon is still there. A figure caught her eyes, it is walking towards an icy garden but the path she takes thaw and flowers are growing from beneath her ground.
June put on her coat and decide to follow the person.
'Stop hiding behind the bushes I can hear you there', the person turns around waiting for June to come out.
'I thought I was stealthy enough that you can't sense me', Haru smile.
'What brings you here in the middle of the night'.
June cross her arms pouting 'Well the same reason as you of course'.
'Oh! I see you like the half moon too. I do but I don't know why'.
June soften her glare and stand right next to Haru 'I like the moon because I think it radiance gives off hope to me. A hope that I can change the destiny I hate'.
'I see, I guess after tomorrow the moon will be completely white. Maybe you are right, if we work hard enough we can change our path. Just like the moon'.
'Haru, I have my resolve'.
'Ohh! So soon?'.
'Yes, the sooner the better'. Haru smile, she can read what is on June's mind right at the moment. 'Come to the battleground tomorrow. The training is the first thing tomorrow get's it. Also I'm your coach, you will get your answer about where the owner of this castle been'. June yawn, she is too tired to ask question. Maybe tomorrow will do.
