"M-mother?"
"No, my mother's a fashion designer at home, she's reckless, irresponsible, always acting so immature despite her age. But she loves me, I love her."
"W-what am I saying? My mother's the star queen, bold and unbeatable, Without her, the very kindness means nothing, this universe is existing because of her!"
"Aahh just who are you, ME??"
It was like the boy had two different memories, he could remember being him, but someone else.
He was earthling shane?
No, but he wasn't the alien prince Aizu either.
The poor thing held his self on the ground and yelled, the questions were too many while no one was there to answer, has he lost once again?
Queen Madelite Hugged him once more, With warmth and comfort, the poor boy could see his eyes running like a waterfall falling from the mountains.
His mind stopped thinking, All he wanted was to be held by his mother and sleep.
"You are an experience." answered the queen
"This life has been waiting for you from all this while, the sadness, the happiness obtained by staying with someone, giving importance to someone you love, Learning who you are and what makes you The real you."
"You are going to experience all of it, your misfortune is behind, Now what awaits is a smile, would you like to share it with the world, Aizu, my son?"
"M-my name is Shaizu."
"S-shaizu?"
"I'm not Aizu.. I-i'm not him.."
But I can see him cry, I can see him trying to sneak out of his prison and run to play outside, I only wanted to make friends. I can feel that suffering when he was a monster, he hated himself, I hated myself.. I remember him wanting a smile only.."
"But I can smile."
I'm not Shane, But I still felt that blinking smile he had lost from his face, I still feel his frozen heart that never let out a beat, But my heart.. it's beating, I am alive."
"Am I not them?"
"Their loneliness, their fears and very slight but the brightest smile reaching out to put it's shine toward the Darkness. I see myself living through them, and I feel my body is not just one, my life has born it's meaning for two people."
"So I can't be just one, I not him, I am them."
"(I am Shane + Aizu = Shaizu)"
The newly born body that called himself from a new title, he sat there with a warm smile, he was no longer that frail child, neither he was that sad little prince. He knew how to smile, He was not lost, he just found himself.
Queen Madelite and numama stood there looking at each other surprised, they didn't know how to proceed.
"Sister Madelite, I may need you to step out of this. This monster may carry prince's memories, I can't overlook that demon's face reflecting on him. He was a demon himself, now he must be perished!"
"I'm sorry, but it's not my time to die yet.. my death's not fated by your hands."
"Bastard are you mocking me?"
"Nope, I'm just stating the truth, it's what i see. The truth."
Queen Stood there, she didn't know what to do anymore, she was happy her son had come back. Could a mother care about any consequences at all if their son's life was at stake?
Although she still wasn't happy seeing her brother's raging eyes.
"Sister Madelite! I don't understand H-how have you allowed this monster to live.. True I may have agreed to help you a while ago, but look at what he has done right after his life was spared!"
"I-i remember.. I remember all of them who lost their lives against this monster you call your child, my d-daughter was among them. H-he, he destroyed her Sou..."
"YOUR DAUGHTER'S STILL ALIVE!"
Queen Madelite didn't know anything, She yelled at him to stop. She was shivering, her eyes teared down just as much as his brother, her eyes could see the hatred that raged in nunama's eyes, he hadn't forgotten the incident involving her daughter.
"She's still alive? how can you tell me that? she's breathing so she's alive? he left her in a condition that'd be worst than death, she's tainted! He stained her entire meaning of being a cosmalan!"
"I can't forgive him, how could you forgive him? After everything she did for him, She became her smile if everyone else gave him tears. Yet, she didn't deserve that fate!"
Shaizu stood there confused, he tried to remember, but there weren't any memories regarding a friend, or a girl in his life. He could only see loneliness in that dark prison. But her mother spoke with confirmation of that girl's existince, "Who was she?" thought shaizu.
Numana and Madelite carried on to their argument, Poor shaizu stood there doing nothing.. He had nothing he could do, How? how could he have redeem himself. His life never meant to continue, No one needed him to continue, whether he had lived in that earthling's body or in prince's body. Rejection was his only fate. A very mundane fate he'd inherited by his father, The kaloo lord.
"I-i.. I'll kill all the kaloos, I'll kill them until nothing has remained of their filthy existince, By all.. I mean myself too. I-i understand my punishment, I understand my mother's punishments for letting a sinner like me Live too."
Shaizu broke his silence, with determined eyes, he had been screaming his hatred toward the demon who gave him such a fate. He wanted revenge just as everyone else.
"I'm not asking for much. I'll only need you to let me stay in this world a little more, just a while more until my father.. erm.. I mean that filth is resurrected, of course if you look back, it was I who put him on a long hiatus back then too."
"But this time he won't be spared."
Nunama looked at him with a disgust, of course he wasn't ready to believe in him. But even someone like him could tell his words had weight, it was all confirmed between them once the Kaloo lord's name was spoken. He knew prince didn't lie even for a moment. Kaloo lord's fate of getting freed and setting another era of destruction wasn't a lie either.
"Eh what's this? I didn't expect my dear uncle to agree with me so easily."
Sudden Change of mood shocked nunama, Prince shaizu had clung to him. he wasn't letting him go. With shaizu smiling and teasing, Nunama was irritated but he couldn't get away from him at all.
Queen Madelite saw them and her grieving eyes Disappeared into eternal happiness, in all her life, she'd only wanted one thing which visioned right infront of her eyes just now, her tears knew no limits.
"Don't cling to me so easily, I've only accepted your proposal because only a monster can beat another monster, as unfortunate as it is our cosmalan breeds have been decreasing day by day since there has been no new births to (RY) cosmalans. We are short on strength."
"And Who else is better than that monster's own child, and with RY blood at that. I'm only agreeing with reasons. You have something that can't be wasted, that's all, It's not like I have any sympathy for you or anything, you monster!"
Shaizu could tell he was looking at a tsundere, a male one which could be a bit rare. But it made him happy, Madelite joined his laughter too.
