"Why .." an elegant feminine voice muttered in avoid of space as silence encased the entire space ..
a beautiful woman with tears running down her face knelt down on a chariot that shone like a star ...
a man floating beside her with closed eyes ..
"Can't peace exist even in the darkest hour ..??" she inquired herself ... with a deep frown on her face .. something that she had never in her life did ..
anger .. annoyance rose up from her heart .. all the overbearing emotions she had kept inside of her rose up as the chariot she knelt on started cracking due to the immense pressure she released ..
"Don't let your emotions get ahead of you .." a manly voice resounded in her ears as she instantly realised who it was who was speaking ..
suddenly .. a white hand that was glowing lightly rested on her shoulder as she looked at the face she had longed to see for many years ..
"Father .." indeed .. this was the king of the Will race .. the man who had sacrificed his future for his little princess ..
he looked into her eyes with a passionate gaze before his hand went up to her cheek caressing it ..
"Oh how you've grown .. " he said as a chuckle escaped from his mouth with a big smile written on his face ..
"Father .." Christina muttered tears still falling down .. and this time much faster the time she mentioned her father again ..
"Indeed My little Christina .. it's me .. and at the same time ... it isn't me .. for the Lord has given me the chance to not let your soul be driven into rage because of the things that are happening in your life .." Christina quickly wiped her tears before wrapping her delicate arms around the man who she loved and adored with all of her heart ..
"Still as delicate as glass .. aren't you ... "
"Still haven't changed daughter .. " the man chuckled rubbing his hands on her back caressing her as if he was never dead .. as if she was the most important thing in his 'soul' ..
"I .. I missed you father .. I missed mother .. I missed all of you ... since I've been left all alone with no one .." Christina said with her voice breaking ... tightening her arms around her father with all the strength she had right at the moment ..
"Hoho .. little Christina .. you might break me if you keep crushing me like that .." Christina's father chuckled .. pushing her gently giving her a fatherly gaze .. stroking her hair ..
"I am truly sorry my little Christina ... for not being there for you all these years ... but I don't regret leaving my fleshly life ... because where I am right now .. life is very good .. no conflicts .. just peace .. like you wanted .. " he then held her soft hands lovingly before looking behind her ..
"That man .. will make you the most happiest woman .. I assure you .. it's unfortunate that he was cursed to be so .." he then returned his gaze back at her face .. of which he caressed ..
"Christina my daughter .. don't let anger take over your soul .. for it has no benefits .. be pure daughter and live your life peacefully with him .. and do not worry yourself about little Aethelu and little James .. they will overtake evil and they will destroy whatever remains of it .. death is not the way to describe both their fates .. rather .. they will experience freedom and enter the holy paradise .. " Christina started to tear up again ..
"When they .. they .. they arrive please tell them i am truly sorry for not being with them in their battle .. and thank them for me ... " she smiled which brought warmth to the man's soul ..
"I will do so ... "
"I see that you're expecting .." he then chuckled which brought redness on her face ..
"Yes father .."
"Why are you being so bashful little Christina .. this is a blessing .. be grateful .. " the man chortled patting her daughter ..
"I am grateful for the little one.. and I am grateful for Sosuke .. " she then smiled brightly ..
"Of course you are ... " the man's body started glowing brightly in a blinding light ..
"Wait father where are you going ..!!??" Christina panicked as she saw his body disappearing into particles ...
"My work here is done .. little Christina .. take my word to your heart and live happily .. don't let anger consume you .. " Christina stood up and hurried swiftly to his side ..
"What name comes through your mind ..!!?" she inquired with a smile plastered on her face despite tears falling down unceasingly ..
"It depends on how he or she is born .. however .. if you want me to give a name .. I suppose you should name it ... if it's a boy .. and name it ... if it's a girl ..." although his voice sounded distant .. Christina had caught up to the whole sentence with a beaming smile ...
"I will ... and thank you .." with that the man disappeared into particles flying about the empty void that spread throughout the galaxies ..
Christina smiled brightly before sadness crept up on her again .. however this time it was different ..
she sad and happy .. two mixed feelings she couldn't merge nor understand how they cooperated with each other despite being so opposite ..
she touched her belly subconsciously and wiped off her tears as the perfect light of the sun rose from a distance exactly where she was heading ..
a smile soon found a way to her face as she covered her eyesight from the magnificent light that shone even outside it's reach ..
she then looked at Sosuke who was still floating in the chariot ..
she crawled up to him and embraced him warmly as he descended landing in her arms ..
she took a deep breath and looked at him with a passionate gaze before sitting it afar beyond the sun before a planet came in view ...
one covered in a perfect glade ..
ocean blue waters flowing about with giant waves ..
peace and life released exactly at the centre of it ..
although she was far .. the feeling had never left her body ever since she arrived .. it was a feeling that she couldn't forget ..
it was special and unique ..
a perfect place which she found to be the most exuberant .. filled with love that no one living on it could give ..
maybe ....
.......
a few moments later on the outskirts of the planet where a plain surrounded a city with a huge castle in the middle of the city ..
"I am sorry .." Sosuke said as they instantly teleported straight at the gates front where fifteen guards wearing silver armour with swords laid in their sheaths and spears out in their heads ready to stab into an uninvited guests ..
Christina smiled lightly before caressing his cheek .. before planting a kiss on his forehead before they headed straight at the gate ..
the fifteen guards immediately turned hostile towards the two who didn't even show any signs of being normal humans ..
"Halt ..!!"
"State your purpose for coming to our Vermillion City ...!!" one of the bigger guards shouted in an overbearing voice ..
Christina went forward and curtseyed elegantly with a small smile ..
"Apologies great sir .. but you see me and my husband are looking for a place to stay .. I was wondering if you have an inn .. I would gladly appreciate your hospitality .." she said in a ladylike tone which caused the other men who stood around them with spears to fall in love with her voice ..
not only was her voice beautiful but she herself was .. everything about just yelled beautiful ..
"State your names ..!!"
"I am Christina Magic .. and this is Sir Sosuke Magic .." the guard glanced at Sosuke who was standing idly at Christina's side releasing a calm yet dangerous aura that spread throughout the radius ..
"Before you step in our city .. we must check if you're not wanted or had done any crimes .. and we'll also need a dozen of gold coins for entry fee .." the guard said before stepping forward with a mirror like object that rotated around his wrist playfully ...
he then held his palm out straight at Christina's face ..
the object rushed at the centre of the palm before copying Christina's face ... generating the exact replica of Christina's face as it shone with a green light ..
the face then distorted before the mirror object went for Sosuke who immediately felt uncomfortable due to the many times many people had accused him of doing bad ..
the object instantly generated his face as well before shining green ..
"The process is done .. now for the entry fee .."
the guard held out his hand and motioned for the two to give out the six gold coins he had asked for ..
"Of course here they are .." Sosuke said as he shoved the coins in his hand ..
"Thank you .. you may enter the city now .. be mindful not to cause any ruckus .. we will be impolite if forced to .." the guard said one last time before standing aside letting the two enter the gates unhindered ..
"Back to your posts ..!!" he then shouted as the other 14 guards rushed in a Knightly manner to the gate protecting it as the two disappeared into the city far away from them ..
******
"Come lay by my side .." Christina said as she patted on the other side of the bed with Sosuke still looking at her apologetic ..
he went up to the bed and laid down beside her ..
"Do not be sorry .. it is not you who had driven us out of the sanctuary .. and secondly you should just ease your mind and forgive yourself .." she said tapping his fingers on his chest ..
she closed her eyes as suddenly chirping sounds were heard from outside the room they were in ..
a beautiful song sang by birds resounded in their ears ..
