"what have you been doing these days Jones" she stopped her brother before he could even take his first step out the door.
"like always. Studying human behavior. What else I am going to do?" Jones shoved under Latina's shoulder and got away.
First of all, many younger generations were chosen by the eldest fairies in the tribe to let them meddle with human business, how they communicate with each other and how they treat those who are different then them according to species, races, status.
Thus, to survey who can they trust once they decided to counter attack if anything happen to them when they agreed to hang out with humans from time to time.
This is because, their species is quite well known in the past after the massacre of the first tribe of Niran at the hands of the young king of Atlante who met his fatal end, after he gave on his trust to a person whom desired the 'world'
When the king died, he was chosen to be the next ruler because the king was the last one from the blood line and he didn't get to married when he died.
The man called Petrus was the origin plotter of the first untitled war among fairies after he learnt from his witch mother about the extraction of magis core of magical beings to be put into himself rather than learning it one by one. He named it as the transfer of the ownership. Yet, without the conscience and agreement of those people.
Many races fall into extinction when their magis core were exploited as there will be a traitor exist among each races for power money, social status and even for bragging.
Magis core were put to sell to lower status in a higher price which can resulted in losing half of family fortune for 1 stone in the form jewels such as necklace, rings, wand, walking sticks and to countless it had reformed to.
Magis core or sometimes called as power stone, rune light, beast stone or depencing which and where they got it were extracted into the body of nobles so they can outsmart lower ranking people.
Even so, some failed to fused to power in Their body which resulting either death or crippled. New cases had reported to amnesia and unsound mind.
It's hard to believe, the long run of those magis stone became one in humans' body that soon their babies and the next generation born with magis in their blood.
Could be said, the had mutation in genes. Athough it was not a lie that most of human may born with it, but it was not too visible that they need to learn how to use it.
So the nobles changes the fact made by Petrus that, those power in only in the body nobles to forbid them to learn anything about magis.
Whoever possessed magis will be noted to be a beast that originally born with it, if a lower rank seems to have it, they're the descendants of those fairies, beast, elf and many other unnamed creature dwelling on earth.
Obviously, those magical being really frustated to be listed as the lower rank though they were the ones who stronger than anything. It was Petrus and his men who kill them endlessly.
When they tried to let out the truth that the king was lying by telling anybody can possesed magis and the world is equal, Petrus fight back by stating that the children of lower ranks who suddenly born with certain magis were cursed, or one of the parents comitted adultery with magical beings.
The more he provoked those magical beings which reside next to human in the human realm, the more lies he fed to his own citizen.
Afraid they will be kill as catalina and Niran, they shut their mouth and stay hidden.
Luckily, the 11th siblings of Petrus had children of their own and passed down the magis they learnt from Catalina. Now those descedents walked the same path of the king but not serving him. why would they?
They're also not an enemy or friends with magical beings. They're just minding their own business.
To why Petrus treated the magical beast in the form of animal just because his mother won't let him study anything else.
"so I steal it" – Petrus.
"you smell different. It's not a human smells" Latina to Jones. Niran had a sensitive in nose so it's hard to keep secrets.
Latina frowned. " this is the smell of Marg. What are you doing there? Have you found something interesting?"
Latina is not a fan of Marg because there were so many deformed living beings that are not fairies, or to be exact a thing that abuses fairies or eat them. she's one of those individual to be a bodyguard of the reborn witch yet she never been there. She actually don't believe it.
"The strength of Marg barrier the eldest casted are getting thinner each day. Yet that witch is still no where to be found" she sighed but still looking at her second brother.
"Oh I see.." he answered calmly. Without looking at him, her bad was so distracted nowadays,
"It's a good thing you are a terrible liar." She grinned. His hands won't stop shaking if he had something in his mind that he wished to hide.
"what?" his wings were lowered down due to shock.
"hmm" she chuckles. 'he's still a baby'
"you've been lingering around Marg since I don't know when but....but said you had no idea? You better not mess with a girl any longer.. let alone those witches fairies. Or did you spend some time with dark creatures? please don't there's a reason they called such way" she don't believe in an extinct fallen fairies, but it's not a bad idea to believed they once exist.
His excitement rise again. No wonder he loved Latina more than anyone because she understand him so much though with all the nagging. But, he would not want to share Lailita with anyone else.
If his sister pledge for lailitas's magis stone, Latina will be stronger than now.
"can I come with you?" the 13th chosen one his own brother Alfred came to his intruded so that he can go to human realm.
"you're still young, I'll bring you when you're old enough okay? It's dangerous out there." Aflred had a smudged face and went for Latina when Jones declined him.
"latina.." he demonstrating a cute face. But Latina pretend not to see him and flew away.
"I promise.." Alfred walked towards Jones to punched his knees because Jones way too taller than him. And he still cannot fly because his injury after hitting a tree Where Jones often hid, they're still healing.
It was half moon so the healing time is much longer.
"okay.. " said Alfred
"Jones, take care" She said it half-heartedly. Why did she worried so much for him? she had a strong instinct to undetected calamity, she don't want to lose any other of his family,
"I will" He smiled.
"you know when I need you, even if you're not, I will call for you" He said it telephatically to his sister before he blew a kiss to Latina.
She doged it by sitting down, Alfred laughed out loud to see their interactions.
DARK TERRITORY
'Shirekkk...'
'krikkkhh'
She gasped like a scaredy cat. "J? Is that you?" Lailita rise from the mat and waited silently.
'Krikkkh.. iii?' She gulped, she then crouching her legs at the darkness corner of the hut and released the blinfold because the sound terrified her. It was a familiar sounds, those sharp and pointy fingers?
'Did the demons found me' Lailita stand up and ran to the window, asking protection from the moonlight.
"What am I going to do?" she complained. The sound of crickets added to her heartbeat. She sneezes tona sudden breeze, apart from the flu, she dislike the weather that changes four times a day.
Once again the sound of scratches was heard and it got closer and closer to the hut.
After a while my eyes are healing, I want to see him.(Angelo) I don't want to look at the demons again!
Lailita pushed the dangling peaves aside not to see what's outside, she did thst so that the hut was brighter than before.She does not want to change anything what positioned as he feared Jones will be mad and leave her.
"J.. is that you? It's you right?" She ocassionally walked to what she remember to be where she fall.
The long dangling willow leaves fell back. He remembered the sharp object Jones had used to cut a kind of fruit to drink the refreshing liquid in it when she said she was hot.
'I doubt it's him, why would he climb the hut? What is it? - is it the demon? How did they find me? Is it the crawling one'
She got closer to the entrance and peeked just as her tiny fingers sliding away the green leaves, she was set to be eye -to -eye with something awful.
Both were surprised, " why are you not home kid, naughty kid" the woman's eyes were spiining 360° as she saw Lailita.
"what is this?" she was stunned. why is it so ugly? am I afraid of it? why do think I it will make me relief if it was Angelo? or Eva..?
"grim reaper help me" Jones scracthed behund his eyes . He folded his wings to take a rest.
" am I too tired that I hear she's calling for me?" He laughed. "I must be, Why would I hear her?" He jumped from the tree when no one was looking,
The market is sure crowded as usual, he walked out with his noble looking and greeting to every owners he sees,
"Good evening Sir Aaron, you look great as usual" Stephen a 28 year old man whose he still think as a baby shouted calling for him.
"Do you have it?" His winked at him. Stephen tell him to wait for a minute, as he grabbed a box of freshly picked apple from his family's farm.
" you have the best apple i've ever had" Stephen flutteree by him. Both of the gentlemen grinned to each other before fhey burst into laugh.
"You should collaborate with my father sir, then you won't have to buy," In the human realm be is known as Aaron Charles, a talented rookie in business. None of his investement failed to amazed other merchants,
Therefore, many despised how he had everything in his life, wealth, good looking, genius and how close he was to be a fiance to a marquess daughter. But he politely declined any offer apart from business proposal.
"Is your pendant supossed to shine Sir?" He was chewing an apple when Stephen pointing out the blue pendant on his chest.
"I supposed?" Stephen noticed his expression had change.
"did something happened?" he befriends with Aaron for 4 years know. At first, he thought he was an annoying noble man that he avoided him.
He thinks Aaron was humiliating his family when he took a bite of an apple from his cart, he looked like the apple had strangled him. As he thinks he definitely had a proper meal compare to an apple?
After wards, he left Stephen in shocked that he buy the entire cart. Every now and then until there was a shortage apples.
He tells he had none left, Aaron will make sure to visit their farm to see for himself. He is indeed a funny guy.
