Von continues to look at Stacy but in doing so he realizes that she is in a black bikini. The was a Red Heart on the left side of the top.
"Ummm...Are you going to get off of me Von?" Stacy said, turning away from him. Von quickly got off of her and sat down looking somewhere else. Stacy giggled again and sat up, handed Von a bag.
"What is this?" Von asked, looking at her confused. Reach in her bag and grab her brush. Then pull her hair to the left side and start to brush her hair.
"It's my beach stuff that I brought with me. Since you're here you can set it up for us." Stacy replied back looking down and continuing to brush her hair. She gave a slight smile and Von didn't notice it. Von got up and set up as she asked but after that he felt his heart racing. Von shook his head and they both sat down on the beach towel looking at the horizon together.
"Hey Stacy, any reason why you're here in Eternal City?" Von said, wondering if his encounter was a part of fate.
"Well school is out for me. So This city has a beautiful beach area so I wanted to come here. But seeing you here is also nice too." Stacy responded back and Von turned to her and started to blush.
"Well as for me I'm going to a university here. So I..." Von was trying to finish but Stacy interrupted him because of her excitement.
"Wow! Your going to Saul R. Jacob University!! That's like the most impossible school to get into." Stacy shouted out loud but Von looked around nervously and shrugged at Stacy.
"Sorry for being loud. Although I did forget that you can't remember a lot of this. Well where to start hmm. Saul R. Jacob is the current Pope of chapel also he is the second in command of the War Hungry King. As for the university he built from the ground up from the King's and nobleman's riches. Therefore any students that get accepted go for free in 8 years to achieve their Master degree." Stacy explains but she stretches out pointed at the city. Von looked and didn't understand what he was supposed to see.
"So Eternal City is referred as the True Paradise because the hospital here can save many lives no matter what their conditions are. Not only that there aren't many crimes that happen here I don't know why to be honest. Anyway back to the school that has top tier education that views the world's history and your desired field you wish to study in." Stacy continues to explain but Von in his thought that's way too good to be true.
"Stacy hold on before you go on. What are the requirements to get in and how can the student be removed from the school?" Von asked.
"To be honest I don't know. Your thinking it's too good to be true and your right but...The Pope is just that kind. Well there is something I did forgot to mention sixty percent of their students are from their chapel. Other than that I'm completely clueless about it." Stacy finished explaining but Von is even more curious about the whole city even more. Stacy grabbed Von's hand and Von was surprised then looked at the city that is slowly turning dark.
"Von...I have a question that I wanted to ask you for a while... If you have to pick between two types of women who will you pick? The woman of your dreams or The woman of your Heart?" Stacy questions Von putting him on the spot and waiting on his answer. Von's heart began to pound in his chest and he started to get very nervous. He closed his eyes and thought to himself.
"Oh but If you don't know, you don't need to force yourself to answer it now." Stacy said, trying to not seem pushy. Stacy let go of his hand then he stood up and opened his eyes and looked at the night sky.
"I couldn't pick right now because I haven't met the woman of heart nor the woman of my dreams yet. So I don't have an honest answer for you right now. If I tried to answer it'll come across as biased and I want to be fair to both of them. So until I meet them both of them you just have to just wait. Then i'll give you my answer then okay?" Von answered as he turned to Stacy and gave her a smirk and a thumbs up. Stacy smiled at him and got up and they both walked to the oceans. When they got close to the water Stacy knee down and was touching the crystal clear water.
"I asked you that because there was a man that asked me that same question but about what man I would choose." Stacy said, her hair covering her face. Von puts his hand on her shoulder.
"I made a promise to someone when I was little but I don't remember his name. But I promise him that'll not leave him alone and I'll always be there for him. Oh my... I didn't mean to put any of this on you. Please forget I said anything." Stacy said, her tears falling from her face. Von noticed and walked into the ocean a bit more and put his hands behind his head and looked at the moon.
"Well if it means anything to you I can make a promise to you. I can stay with you until you meet him again. Other than that I'm just a guy that wants to protect you." Von said, Stacy looked up at him and saw that he was smiling at the moon. She wiped her face and walked up to him and gave him from behind.
"Thank you Von you do mean alot to me. I was hoping that the person..." Stacy didn't finish because suddenly everything around Von turned black and he was on guard.
"Get stronger Von..." A mysterious voice said but Von didn't see anywhere. That moment Von closes his eyes and then opens just to see that he is in a dark forest. Von looks around and sees a burning Village and he starts running as he is running he is hearing whispering voices all around him.
"World where are you!?!" Von shouted and scanned the area of the burning village. Von sees two little kids running from the village. He ran after them, and suddenly as he was running Von saw a kid that ran straight passed him. That kid looks like someone he knows.
"Zuri!!!! Where are you!?!" The kid screaming for someone's name. Von Stop to figure out what's going on. But that moment a long sword impaled Von's chest from behind. He spit out blood and everything seemed like it was slowing down.
"Hey Cousin, I need you to get stronger and kill him so we can have our duel. I'm looking forward to cross blades with the hybrid such as yourself and don't disappoint me." The mysterious voice said, pulling the sword out of him causing Von to fall and when he hit the ground he looked up and saw the two kids. There was a little girl holding the little boy for dear life.
"It's okay I am here for you no matter what. I promise that i'll hug all of your bad feelings away even if others think your a monster I will still be here. I...you...all...my heart..." The little girl said, but Von couldn't hear the last part that she was saying to the little boy. Then Von slowly closed his eyes...
"Is this death...?" Von said to himself. Then he woke up in a bed that is by a balcony and saw it was morning. He heard the door opening behind him. Von quickly jumps out his bed to prepare for what's coming through the door. The door opened and it was Ostrythe wearing no shirt but sweatpants on walking in then leaned against the wall.
"Rise and shrine Von ready to continue training?" Ostrythe said, smirking at him.
