Laura had given her the chance to be a child, to be free, to be able to choose. Anna was torn of fear and hope. Fear of the consequences she would receive from her if she would follow and hope for the prospect of freedom.
Anna may be an assassin but she was still a child who wished and envy to be like other children lives. So she took her chance and met the twins, Solis and Reva, her shinning Sun and protective Cloud.
To Anna, Solis was her Sun who lit her world in beautiful colors. He, who made her laugh in amusement, sing to the heart, enjoy the peace, smile in happiness, and feel the emotions the world had offered. Solis was someone Anna would call the Sun that brought color in her monochrome world. Solis was hyperactive, determined, mischievous, caring, patient, and creative. He is very friendly and open despite his isolation. He was also a perfectionist to a fault.
While Reva was Anna's Cloud who protect and cover her from the pain and horrors of the world despite that Anna already experienced it. She, who watches her in times of trouble, comforts from pain, attentive for Anna's care, discipline her in for mistakes, guides her to a better choice and effort. Reva is and always be Anna's gentle protective Cloud that soft yet firm to make protected and loved. Reva was stoic, calm, watchful, protective, disciplined, short spoken, caring, independent and strict. She is a loner by nature but she socialized if needed. She, like her brother, is perfectionist.
Solis and Reva's safety are her personal mission whether willingly or unwilling, it does not matter. They were her first and only friends. And she gladly give her life for them.
To them, they see a girl with a horrible past but unknown to their knowledge, other than specialist Laura, she's an assassin. But she doesn't want them to know that. And Laura respected her decision.
When specialist Laura told Anna the reason about Solis and Reva's isolation, she was furious.
To Anna, Laura is no better than her former superiors, she is treating and training the twins to be killers! They spent their entire life eat, study, train and sleep till now and Laura won't stop till they reach their 15th birthday. Which literally a year from now.
Even though the organization that were looking for them stop went quite for years, she still won't let them leave. Anna also went to leave the house for some news from time to time to prove Laura that it's safe but Laura refused saying that her daughter's wish is for her children to stay hidden from the for a full 15 years. She even went to far as tell Solis and Reva's mother hated them so much that she abandoned them.
It frustrates Anna to no end but she doesn't have a choice. She also wanted them safe but they didn't have to hide this long. Normally they would have presumed dead by the planning they went through to erase their existence.
"I know your frustrated in their behalf but you must understand that this is for their own good. They will be free to go when they reached 15 years old but for now, they need to protected." Laura calmly explained.
"…fine." Anna admitted defeat as she turns away to go inside to prepare breakfast. Anna really hates her.
Seeing Anna leave with her back turned to hide, and failing, her frustration Laura sigh and her attention towards the twins.
She really hates it when she try to put her grandchildren in their position as an assassin-in-training but she didn't have any other choice. it was either she prepare a them or leave defenseless in the hands of the enemies.
It was still very clear that the capital were still looking for them and they will continue so before the next coronation begin which is a year from now but with the way things are going it will be a smooth passage if she continue to hide them till they are ready.
she could still remember that night where she saw her daughter's tears many years ago that still continue to haunt her even in her dreams from this day.
When Laura was young she was nothing more then an assassin with no name and no purpose other than to follow orders personally from the Sette Risonanze but just like Anna she was a person who wish to have a normal life so she stood strong waiting for the opportunity she would be rewarded and there would be your chance to ask for her freedom.
For her dreams of freedom she killed her enemies, poisoned her targets, followed her superior's orders, fought her way to the top , bleed through her battles, destroyed nearly destroyed her body just so she could be rewarded to have a wish but it all came down when she fell in love with her partner Seth, as he named himself, who was Scepter.
Seth grew and trained together since the beginning in their infancy. he was the one she had trusted with her life and they had shared the same dream of freedom as well. During on of their missions together they they had promised and exchange their vows without a pastor or witness to confirm them but it was the most memorable moment in her life as they acknowledge each other as husband and wife.
One day when their superiors acknowledge their efforts they were called in to see them for a reward but what they didn't know that instead of a reward it was an execution. Their superiors were afraid of them and their abilities thinking that they were too dangerous to be left alive.
When they were betrayed they tried to escape the capital but in the end seth died protecting her. She raved in anguish on losing him. All of her dreams of freedom became useless when her husband died in front of her and nearly took life but a old couple found and healed her when they traveled by.
She felt like a hollow shell that time but when the elders inform her that she was pregnant, she was shocked and then hope slowly began to bloom. Seth gave her a beautiful and wonderful gift before his death. She carried proof of her husband's existence. She was overwhelmed with joy to know she wasn't alone in this world.
But that went out when her 17 years old daughter vanished for 15 years only to return with tears and grandchildren her daughter provided. when Laura knew what the capital had done to Medea, she went mad but kept her composure and promised her daughter to keep the twins safety until they have reach 15 years old.
So Laura hid them while Medea stayed in the capital to finish her business that was forced into her. From that, it still felt like a bitter pill to swallow for leaving her daughter in the enemies hands.
