Darkness...
'Again?'
'Why am I always ending up in this place?'
'Don't you have creativity?'
'Sigh, there's no point arguing about that matter myself.'
I saw a light appearing out of nowhere.
I look at it and it looks like a smallest version of sun but cold.
I look at it closely and it moved.
I jump backward because of shock and I heard it speak.
"Hello my child." It said.
I look at it closely if it was real but unfortunately, it was.
"Who are you? A talking light ball? Are you the one who left the note on my status?" I asked
"I cannot answer that my child but I called you here because I need to talked to you about your status." The light said.
"As you can see, we locked almost all of your power for some reason that I cannot tell you. You will get your status back to normal when the time comes. We made you to be able to use all of your power in your space because of a certain reason. So please use it well." The light continued.
'I feel like I will face something dangerous that's why you're doing that.'
"You know that I can hear your thoughts child. Don't think of the future and focus on your present. You don't need to worry about anything as long as you believe in yourself, you can confront anything in your way." The light said.
I'm still confuse about what he said but I feel better hearing it.
"Oh- The time is up. See you again next time my child."
I feel a warm feeling covering me that earlier is cold. I opened my eyes and saw a scene that actually shocking anyone who see. I scratch my eyes if what I saw real. But unfortunately, it's real.
A kneeling Irene while crying saying sorry...
A crying Claurus while hugging me saying sorry...
A nearly to cry, sad Claude?...
WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENED HERE?!!
IS THE WORLD ENDING?!
-Flashback-
-Claude's P.O.V-
We were congratulating Irene because she just got her status and we were happy for her.
Suddenly, a blinding light coming from that wench covered us.
I closed my eyes and saw some image of a family.
I saw a pregnant woman, Claurus and I smiling at the woman's belly.
'I never saw this woman before...'
The time the light fades away, memories are keep going in my head.
And finally, it stopped.
I got on my knees while keeping myself to cry from the memories I received.
'So... So that's what happened.'
I looked over my front and saw Irene kneeling and crying while shouting my name with Selene on the both of her arms.
Claurus got up first and lift her but he is still shock from what happened earlier.
I quickly shove my shock off and got up towards them.
"Get the Imperial Doctor now! Hurry!" I shouted
The priest bowed and leaved in a hurry
I look at Selene's lifeless like body.
'I'm sorry Selene my daughter, I'm truly sorry'
I promise I will make it up to you and we will become a true family. Like your mother want.'
A small sad smile is visible to my face.
'Selene, please come back to us soon.'
-Two Hours Later-
It's been two hours and we are now at my palace.
Selene's still hasn't woken up and I nearly killed all of the doctors here but I didn't because the children are here and Claurus is stopping me to do it.
I literary can't relax right now because one of my daughter is dying and I still hasn't made up with her yet.
Irene is still kneeling at her older sister while crying and saying sorry. I didn't stopped her because I know she also felt guilty for her sister.
Claurus is almost hugging her to death while crying and saying sorry too. He really loved her sister so much when she was on Myle's womb. I remembered that he's always bragging about protecting Selene. But I guess... we are the one who's hurting her instead of protecting her.
Minutes later, we saw Selene got up and scratching her eyes with a shock expression on her face.
'I guess that was... expecting'
-Flashback End-
-Selene's P.O.V-
"S-Selene!" Claurus shouted my name.
"I-I'm sorry, really, I-I don't know why I do that."
"Do?" I asked curiously
"T-That being c-cold to you. I-I promised that I-I don't know why."
"M-Me t-too sister I-I don't know w-why did I d-do that." Irene said but now more sincere.
"Even me too. I don't know why I did that. My memories with your mother got back to me earlier when a light covered you." Claude said with a sad face.
'What the hell did really happened earlier?'
DING!
I heard a ding sound coming from nowhere but I feel like It's my status so I check out if my guess is correct.

Note: Hello my child, if you are confuse what happened earlier, please go to the church again and we will talked about It.
PS: Don't worry about passing out again.
That damn Light.
"I don't know if I can forgive you yet because I need to know the truth and the reason behind it okay? So I need to go to the church tomorrow. Can I? I stated and asked.
"I don't know why but of course. We will come too tomorrow but for now, rest." Claude said
"Okay." I simply said and sleep again.
-In The Morning-
"So let's get going?" Claude asked and I just nodded.
We all in the same carriage it's an awkward situation but stopped when we arrived at the church. We walked at the church's aisle and I walked in front and pray,
"May the God who Created the World Bestow me a Status full of your Blessings."
Then I blocked out again. I saw light.
"Light! What the hell really happened?! Why are they acting like this?" I asked.
"Wait my child I will show you the past of your family." He said and memories are coming to me.
I stated to cry hard because of what i saw, I will tell you.
In the past, mother, father, and brother has a happy family. One day, mother discovered that she will have another child that is me. All of them was happy until they learned that if mother gave birth of me, she will die and If she didn't, I will not lived.
Father and brother wants mom to live but they know that mom doesn't want that to happened because even if the child is still not born, she loved the child with all her heart. So they promised mom that they will protect me with all their strength even if mother is not there, we bill become a happy family.
But when mom gave birth of me and died, they started to ignore me and giving me a cold shoulder. The other believes that I'm the one who killed my mother because never once father and brother visit me and they started to called me 'The Abandoned Princess'.
But that is not the case. The reason why mom and I suffered is because of that witch, the mother of Irene. The mother of Irene curse my mother with dark magic. She curse mom that If the curse leaves her, she will die and the curse will transfer to the child inside her that is me.
If mother picks herself and abort me, the curse will be active and our role will turn. I'm the one who died and she will be abandoned by father and brother. The case of Irene is the same as Claude's but much worse.
The mother of Irene wants Irene to be a cunning, fake white lotus and a bad person. But her plan failed. Irene turned into a real white lotus, kind and a good person. As a person who's doesn't care about others even her daughter, she puts Irene into a spell that make Irene's personality twisted.
But unfortunately for her, she died even before her plan even worked. The curse is still in me that time because the only way to remove the curse is for the one who put it and remove it themselves.
When I see this memory, I couldn't help myself to curse that damn woman.
The I realized something and asked Light.
"Light, but how do the curse vanished when there's no way to removes it because the mother of Irene died almost Decade ago?" I asked.
"It is because of my disturbance on this world. As I have a strong holy energy on me, the dark energy feels it and it vanished away from your body." He explained.
"Light, who are you really?" I asked
"As I said to you my child, when thee time comes." He said and I finally awaken.
I saw them at the same place as I kneel here so maybe light stopped the time here.
My eyes are watering and started crying. I ran over them and hug them like there is no tomorrow.
"F-father, Brother, Irene. I-I now forgive you. I now know the truth of your actions so I forgive you. I wish that we can start over again. Like a happy family mother wanted okay?" Claude, Claurus and Irene nodded and hug me back,
"So I can call you sister now?" She asked and I nodded to her.
"So, let's go back home?" Claurus asked smiling towards me.
"Hm." I hum while smiling back at him'
"Let's go home."
And we go back home leaving the priest there dumbfounded.
